Pioneer Day Swim Performance

I was asked to put together a men's synchronized swim routine for our Stake Pioneer Day talent show. The men who got sucked into it were: Taylor Caron (Pink Cap), Robert Lea (Green Cap), Josh Carter (Blue Cap), Bishop Anthony Perkins (Navy Blue Cap), Dan Omer (White Cap), Patrick Omer (Orange Cap), Chris Day (Yellow Cap), and of coarse Bishop Marcus Stewart (Red Cap). Poor Marcus has no choice being married to me! He gets to go backpacking with his buddies for doing it for me. He's fine!

The practices were so much fun and I had a blast teaching it to these guys. They had fun with it and did amazing! Thanks for being such good sports!!!! You did incredible! I'm already thinking up something for next year! ha ha

Here is the link to another recording of it. It has the begining where they walk in with their robes. It's a closer video. When I put it on my blog it cut off alot of the picture so it will look better if you watch it direct from You Tube.

Perpetuum Jazzile - Africa

This fun YouTube video features a 1980s pop classic. The rock band Toto scored their biggest hit with Africa in 1982. The song is instantly recognizable. But it has been reinvented.

Perpetuum Jazzile is an a cappella jazz choir from Slovenia. It’s hard to think of something further from an ‘80s rock band. But their version of Africa may best the original. The group has amazing voices.

But the beginning of this video is really striking. Group members simulate an African thunderstorm with their hands.

It’s really something to see and hear.(Don't turn up your sound - the sound of raindrops begins really soft.)

**This is amazing so I thought I would share it with everyone. I can't believe that it is a cappella! I love this song too. Enjoy
