Balleilakka arr. Ethan Sperry, Luther College Nordic Choir 

I'm really just vibing to this in my room during corona quarantine

To anyone who took choir because they thought it would be easy I present this song

In the car coming back from my singing competition and listening to this as a choir in the competition sang this

WHAT A PERFORMANCE!!! I’m Tamil and I’m thoroughly enjoying this performance. Bravo. Bravo!!!! 👏 I’ve got goosebumps. What on earth guys!!!🙏 respect.

oh my god!!!!!!! It is 2021 and I literally have a standing ovation here from my room and was moved to tears listening to my Tamil song. Love from Germany!

this recording is GOATED nobody can match it

My high school choir is performing this tomorrow. Great recording!!

In the literal translation of a word: "to show off in such a grand manner", this performance is "maasss"!!!! (I'm a Tamilian) Though, the tempo is a tad high, I still enjoyed it!!! And the smiles from all your singers!!! Very enthusiastic!!!

Wow! moved me to tears. The male vocalists diction is shockingly good. I’m completely impressed

Our varsity choir is going to be singing this for MPA and I can’t wait!! Our director showed us this recording and the entire classroom was jumping off our seats in excitement. We’re about to go into winter break but can’t wait to come back and start learning this piece along with the choreo!!

Giving you a standing ovation in my bedroom. Outstanding 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

I am out of breath just listening to this piece! Well done, y'all!!

I’m a freshman (in hs) and my 9/10 choir is currently working on this piece. Please pray for me 😭🙏

We are singing this song at our next concert and I am so excited!! It is going to be one of the hardest choral pieces I’ve ever had to learn and it is going to take so much hard work but I know I’m the end it is going to sound amazing and it is going to be so fun!!! This is such an amazing piece and I can’t wait to start learning it

How many know the name of the person who wrote this legendary Song ?. His name is 'NA. MUTHUKUMAR' . He passed away few years after he wrote this song at an young age of 35 years.

Music is something that can unite us all. It is the last surviving magic of the universe.❤️

The movie came out in 2007. I was 13 when this came out 😢 amazing work guys!

Lots of love from Tamilnadu ❤

This is one of the best recordings of this song I've heard.

Le plaisir de chanter !!! Cette joie est vraiment communicative et quels beaux sourires ! Comme toujours cette chorale est d'un excellent niveau et j'apprécie tant leur répertoire que leur talent collectif. En général ils sont assez statiques et bougent lentement de droite et de gauche en vagues d'un bel effet. Mais là !!! Ils et elles 's'éclatent' c'est la grande récréation !!!! Et ça nous convient très bien puisque au bout de quelques instants on se prend à se tortiller sur sa chaise en les écoutant. Belles harmonies et bon sens du rythme ! BRAVO !!!!

Amazing! From Toronto Canada!

Ok, this is epic.

GAJAB! means superb! love from Varanasi!

Love from Tamil Nadu

Thank you very much for loving our culture ❤️👌===🙏🏻NANDRI 🔥🔥🔥🔥All😊

bütün dinlediğim korolar içinde en muhteşem yorum..çok disiplinli ve muhteşem bir çalışma..

The hardest song I had to sing in the eight years I took choir.

Wow. Who ever mr. drum man is? I love him.

What is ethan sperry?

If someone sneezes

Please give a separate proper microphone to the solo singers. They are the life of the whole song. Without them, the rest is nothing. 2024 btw.

Sorry to give this a down vote. But, when I played it, I needed to change the volume several times. It was hard to pick out the voices of the soloists.

This is a great chorus. He could perform much more meaningful and demanding works than this work.
