Imagine an elderly choral group of singers aged 73-100.
Now imagine that group belting out songs by the Rolling Stones, The Clash or Talking Heads. Meet The American Young @ Heart Chorus.
It was started in 1982 by seniors in a home for the aged in Northampton, Massachusetts, and included elders who’d lived through both World Wars.
Performing live on stage, their version of Cold Play’s Fix You is extremely touching.
See all their videos at YouTube, and visit their website: The American Young @ Heart Chorus.
Rock out!
This has to be one of the best videos I’ve seen! I love it!
What a sense of HUMOR!!
One of the songs they sing — by Talking Heads — takes on a whole new meaning seeing these oldsters singing the lyrics:
We’re on the road to nowhere…””
