Men Singing ‘You Raise Me Up’ Will Give You Chills

A strong acapella song may enhance any type of music, whether it’s through the vocalists’ capacity to capture the listener’s interest or the absence of extraneous instruments that draw attention to the lyrics.

This is especially true of Brigham Young University’s (BYU) Vocal Point’s acapella rendition of the 2003 hit song “You Raise Me Up” by Josh Groban. They give this lively song a fresh new energy.

Students Dave Boyce and Bob Ahlander founded the acapella group BYU Vocal Point in 1991. After selling out their first performance, the foursome rose to prominence on campus.

In addition to placing fifth in the third season of NBC’s The Sing-Off, BYU Vocal Point has won other prizes since its formation.

They gained greater recognition for their talent in December 2018 when they announced on social media that they had inked a record deal with Universal Music Group’s Decca Gold, a classical label.

Member Jason Bromley remarked, “We’re just regular college students doing amazing things.”

The “You Raise Me Up” music video is an intense vocal excursion.

The “You Raise Me Up” music video is set against a stunning panorama of mountains and valleys.

A single clear voice begins the recording, then a moment later another one harmonizes with it to provide a rich, multi-layered sound.

Together with their bright, clear voices, the ensemble creates incredible vocal percussion sounds.

As they travel over the hilly terrain, the vocalists’ rendition of the song becomes more immersive.

The scenario almost devolves into an excessively calm state, illustrating the way in which music has the power to transport listeners.

Their harmonies work so effectively together that it’s difficult to determine who the lead singers are.

Instead of merely reproducing the original, they provide a remarkably fresh take on this widely covered song.

Their unique style and arrangement are incorporated into the song with a new hook at the end that enhances the harmonies. The crescendo is bolstered by an additional student chorus, making for an extraordinarily powerful conclusion.

You’re going to adore BYU Vocal Point’s incredible rendition of “You Raise Me Up.” While unwinding, take enjoy this unique and moving performance.

Paris Jackson Covered Her Body in Makeup to Hide Her 80+ Tattoos for the Grammys, Here’s Why

Paris Jackson made a stunning impression at the 2024 Grammys with her red carpet look. However, it wasn’t what she wore that caught people’s attention — it was what she didn’t. The daughter of the late Michael Jackson sparked intrigue among fans and observers by being completely free of tattoos, despite being heavily inked, and was questioned about why she chose to hide it all.

Paris Jackson has been getting tattoos for years. She has lots of different designs, like chakra symbols, quotes from books, and symbols inspired by Led Zeppelin. She even has tattoos that match with many of her friends, like Cara Delevingne, and in 2020 she even tried her hand at tattooing by inking herself in the foot.

At the 2024 Grammys, she rocked a strapless black dress with revealing cutouts, making sure to show off her “magic trick” as all her body art seemingly vanished. But why did the model and singer chose to temporarily hide all her 80+ tattoos?

Well, the 25-year-old just wanted to try something completely different and unique, and this was the answer. In a humorous reel posted on Instagram with the question, “Why did Paris cover her tattoos?”, the answer was given by a voice-over clip of Kim Kardashian saying a now popular quote, “Because it’s iconic, and I love to do iconic things.”

But she has Cover Fx to thank for the element of mystery of her look. The cosmetics company took the opportunity to prove the quality of their products, and they partnered with Jackson to create the jaw-dropping transformation.

With celebrity makeup artist Tyson Fountaine was at the helm of the makeover, she became almost unrecognizable. In a time-lapse video, it’s possible to see the look come to life and slowly see the tattoos disappear from her arms, hands and chest, making for an impressive before-and-after.

Celebrities always give us their best looks on red-carpet events. However, with how often they attend them, they’re bound to have to get creative in order to outdo themselves. And well, Margot Robbie surely outdid herself. Ever since she starred in Barbie, she’s been recreating iconic Barbie looks in real life, and it’s fascinating to see!
