Guys, when it comes to voicework, this leaves me stunned. The most amazing control, phrasing and intonation by all of this group and what an incredible arrangement. The moduclation is brilliant!

What Awesome EPICOSITY!!!!

Love how the dude doing the soprano vocals had to wipe the sweat toward the end!

That is about as tight as a recording can get!

I'm assuming that that each track was laid down separately. If so, where in the world do you start with such a hugely elaborate arrangement????
Nice find, Darren!

Damn, they're amazing! It's as though Take Six and The Manhattan Transfer had a love child.

Thanks for sharing, Darren!

It was so good I posted it on FB, and I never do that kind of thing. Thanks!

I love this so much, I want to marry it! The performances, the arrangement, the engineering--it's just all so tight. And, of course, it's one of MJ's best.

I used to sing in an a capella group for a few years. Loved it. My dad was a barbershopper for 40 years.

If you guys want to see some of the best in A capella, watch The Sing-off on NBC.

And kudos to Doug for the Take 6 reference. Listened to them all through college.

Their incredible talent aside, one of my favorite parts of the acapella group/vocal band world is the names they come up with for their groups:

    Pentatonix
    Groove for Thought
    The She-E-Os (From Harvard Business School)
    The Clefhangers
    The Acafellas
    The TestostiTONES
    Pitch Slapped

OK, I just have to ask. How many people, when they first saw the title of this thread, thought it was going to have something to do with those fruit bowls made up like flower arrangements?
