This is an amazing a capella choral performance by people scattered around Canada. The lyrics are quite good and funny. It is a technical tour de force and must have been very hard to put all the individual parts together.

BUT!! The message they are delivering is infuriating. It is distressing to see all these young people happy to stay in isolation FOREVER, willing to "do what needs to be done" to beat the disease, obeying their government "experts" who have gotten everything wrong about this disease.

I picture every one of them old, shriveled up, hunched over, horrid liver spots, gray hair, and walkers, all waiting for the "ALL CLEAR TO COME OUT NOW" message from their government in 2070.

Are there any counterrevolutionaries in Canada screaming "ENOUGH!"?

Beautiful voices. Impressive production. Stupid message.

I DON’T intend to stay here for the longest time.

Yep...what SHEEP! All young, in the prime of life, unlikely to get sick, very unlikely to get seriously ill, and probably none would die.

Sickening message.

They sound beautiful but the lyrics are way too damned depressing.

It’s already been the longest time.

We took a vote at work yesterday about keeping a divided split shift or go back to normal hours.

Normal hours got voted down.

Damn.

"lyrics are way too damned depressing"

Isn't that the truth!? Every single one of those young, healthy singers buys into it.

I just posted The Dan Proft Show (May 15) about the owner of the White Pines Resort in Illinois losing the business she built over 31 years because of Gov. Pritzker's order to stay closed until there is a vaccine. It is absolutely heartbreaking and soon will be very common across the entire country.

Interesting they put it to a vote rather than tell you what to do. Any idea how the different age groups voted?
