Can’t Help It, I Love This Stuff

Filed in National by on December 1, 2010

I’m sure some people won’t consider this post serious or important enough, but I think it is.  Look at the faces of the people in any flash mob video.  Surprise turns into smiles into amazement and ends in gratitude.  It’s a lovely gift that unites everyone in the room.

And, if you’re like me (and can’t get enough of this stuff!), here’s another flash mob video held at the old Wanamaker’s in Philadelphia.  They perform the same song and I love the Random Act of Culture signs they hold up at the end.  We could use a lot more random acts of culture.

    From a technical viewpoint, what was the first vocalist doing with a phone to her ear the whole time? Was there an offsite conductor or something?

    Listen to what crazy thing I’m doing now 🙂

    After listening to this a second time, I really miss a brass section for this song. but they did a wonderful job with singling this without an evident conductor

    Of course this could never happen in America.
    The Obomba police state would taser them instantly.

    Umm, isn’t Wanamaker’s in downtown Philly? Yeah it’s a Macy’s now but the eagle and the accoustics and the magnificent organ are pure Philly. Maybe I got to a different linky?

    Anyway Pandora, I love these things too. Thanks.
