Because they are connected to every single word. What they are singing about are in their hearts this is emotional as well as spiritual for us.

Their harmony is what ive always enjoyed growing up and still do.

This is typical of all orthodox boys choirs - the reason they're so good is because they're not singing about nothing, they're connected to the lyrics - especially with regards to Yerushalayim, this isn't just about mountains surrounding the city, this is about our past and future, the beit hamikdash, and Gd.

They are singing about Jerusalem which is the holiest city for the Jewish people and about the fact that God is always there and protects it and the surrounding mountains❤ Great reaction video, loved it🔥

Thank you so much for reacting to this! As a Jew it’s really rare, especially now, to see people enjoying our culture so this brought a smile to my face. Thanks for making my day! ❤

This is literally my childhood. Grew up listening to all their songs

Through the decades that this choir has performed,they are always Fabulous

9:48 it’s 100% true! Singing about our deep rooted foundation and connection with yerushalayim brings joy to any Jew! What a wonderful and positive review! I grew up with MBC so these are classics for me!

I love how so many of the boys get to have their own part. I was involved in choirs as a kid and only one or two would get a solo per song so a lot of the kids didn’t get to practice that part of it. I remember tryouts for solos being super nerve racking!

My reaction to your review is great job! Especially in these times, it is so encouraging to see someone willing to say such nice things about others and compliment their success. The fact that these boys were singing about Jerusalem and G-d makes it even better. You made my day!

A year to late but still, as a mountain jew i am happy to see that people like to see the work of our Ashkenazi brothers. Respect to you man

There is a reason why Yerachmiel Begun has been doing this since 1977 (though moved to NYC from Miami in 1980 for business reasons), with every year the older kids graduating, and new younger ones come in, where every 4-5 years, there is a full turnover. Dozens of albums and hundreds of concerts in the US, Canada, Europe, South America, and Australia over the years. I remember their biggest era of popularity in the late 90s when they sold out the Nassau Coliseum (I was there in the audience for the "Light up the Nights" concert) with a rotating stage while dancing and singing. The kids are talented, but Begun has an eye for talent when he holds tryouts, composes most of the songs, and does the choreography himself. There is also a reason why half the Jewish music singers of the past 40 years are alumni of this choir (You can see a lot of those people's music videos like Ari Goldwag, Yaakov Schweky, Mordechai Shapiro, etc ). Begun also trains them in the singing as well. However since 2009 their popularity has declines while the newer Yeshiva Boys Choir (Around 20 years old) is the dominant one.

Their passion is especially beautiful when you realize the meaning of the lyrics (from Psalms): "O Jerusalem! Mountains surround her... And God surrounds His people, now and forever". The gratitude to God for protecting their people through the darkness of exile. Absolutely beautiful and powerful 🙌🏼💙🙏🏼

I'm a Jewish girl who grew up listening to this song all my childhood, and now to hear you analyze it especially in the section of the modulation, I got a huge chill.

Miami Boys Choir are simply, without a doubt, the GREATEST!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Nick Higgs, loving this technical analysis and your attention to relaxed technique. Thanks for appreciating and adding to the joy!!

One of the reason I love young kids singing they are giving it all and can sing

This choir always brightens my day. They sing so well and so heartfelt ❤ thank you for reviewing this so well!

they're finally out with their new album, over 5 years in the making/waiting!!

Please critique more Miami Boys Choir I love your non verbal reactions I keep watching this over and over

Love your positive reaction. They truly are amazing!

This is a song about god being with us in hard times it’s a very spiritual song the kids are singing with a lot of feeling! Would love to see u react to more Jewish music!

As others have mentioned before, the reasons this choir is so good are that they don't just sing about anything, but the words have deep meaning to them, and they sing in prayer every day in their homes. And I would say the reason the choreography is so good and they perform in such harmony is also rooted in their culture, they are one people, one congregation, and every one contributes to it, everyone helps each other out, that's why it works so well in this performance.

I love your responses to MBC. I have been listening to this group for 15 years. I took care of a very sick Jewish Rabbi as a RN. I am not Jewish. The Rabbi loved to listen to MBC. That is when I learned of them. I listen to them every day. I love your responses!!

Crazy how only this song went viral, with MBC is in existence for over 40 years with top notch songs

A good example of a Miami Boys alumni who took it to the next level is Mordechai Shapiro.

"Hatov", "Galeh" and "Yavoh" are also amazing songs by them

Such joy in voices and faces and bodies!! What wonderful moments I just spent in their company. Thank you for bringing them forward.

Thanks for the feedback!

Loved this commentary!

Well done, boys. You are all very talented. Enjoyed this video very much. Stand and be proud of who you are. 💕🇨🇦

I love MBC and am so glad you enjoyed them! Orthodox Judaism (MBC is an Orthodox group) forbids men from hearing a woman singing unless she is family (a woman's voice is seen almost as a form of "nakedness"), so majority of Orthodox pop music particularly before the mid-80's was sung by men. Boys choirs like MBC perform music written for higher registers that would usually be performed by women in secular music Yerachmiel composes most of the songs for the choir, and "Yerushalayim" (Jerusalem) was composed specifically for when the choir went on tour in Israel in 2000 and an album was released with all the songs from the tour which were generally Jerusalem themed. The next Israel tour was in 2006 and Yerachmiel composed the song "Mosiach" for the performances, and it was so popular that in 2007 it was released on a new album which also featured a new recording of Yerushalayim. The next music album to release was Yovoh in 2008, and at their Chol Hamoed Sukkot concert they performed songs from the Yovoh and Mosiach albums, including Yerushalayim and this is THE Yerushalayim performance. The concert was recorded for DVD and the clips from here are the ones uploaded. though, at the time other songs from Mosiach and Yovoh where much more popular than Yerushalayim. in 2022 they have released the live recording of Yerushalayim as well as a live album of other songs also! I read somewhere that the costumes were handmade by Yerachmiel's parents

Wow! Great Job!!!

best song ever made tbh

Hi Nick thanks for the great commentary. I know you are doing it from a pure musical point of view, but you should know: the reason they connect to their song and that their crowd - that includes me - loves them for so many years, is because all of their words are religious. They are singing a verse, and they are just expressing the meaning. "Jerusalem- is surrounded by mountains, and God is surroundings his people from now and forever".

We need More reactions to Miami boys choir

That's the owner of the group he's the one that trained them and he's my uncle

Maybe their heart and soul is alive singing songs like this, praising our Maker because the essence of the Jewish soul is Yerushalayim, despite many people, especially the media, have always denied it.

I love the passion the kids sing with and technical perfection together with great choreography - amazing! You did them justice with a dispassionate rational, if enthusiastic, analysis. I've heard other great songs from MBC, also from Yeshiva Boys Choir. The Jewish world have some awesome singers, I think Avraham Fried is the best - check him out. Edited to add Benny Friedmans who is also a great singer with performance factor

Yerushalim the most beautiful city in the world 💙💙💙

thanx for reviewing the music which I grew up with! epic vid

Love your review brother

You should really react to when they did a reunion and when they sung the song Henai Ma Tov!

You should react to daddy come home by yeshiva boys choirs it’s a beautiful song with amazing lyrics

It would be great to talk to some of the choir directors, past and present. They've been honing these techniques with this age group for decades now and would be great to hear what they've learned about teaching

i love this analisation thank you for this, i needed this

This was great. They have developed some really good singers. You should react to the song Hatov

Thank you for the great explanation m

They are so cute!

Iam really blessed with tears rolling down my cheeks.

They so exciting about this because the interpretation of this song is how Jerusalem is so holy, and God is laying there in the mountains.

MBC is the gold standard of Jewish boys choirs. They set the bar for all the other choirs. It's an honor to be chosen for the choir and the boys know it. They're simply the best and they will remain the best.

I hope he realizes that most all of those people are fully grown up and a lot of them are famous singers now.☺;-)

I’m a Jew and this is one of my favourite songs

So nice how u give only positive words 😊

They’re from age 9 until their voice drops, so around 13-14

Do people realise this is from like 25 yrs ago? Grew up listening to them, my sister just interviewed someone for a job and he's one of the kids in this video. She works in a top pharmaceutical company, pleased to see he didn't neglect his education. I found a record in my grandmother's house after she passed. It was some pirchim (young Jewish boys choir). On the label it had 'star soloist Yerachmial Begun has outstanding talent and composes songs like no one else', he was a young boy at the time. Yerachmiel later became Miami boy's choirmaster, briefly appearing in this video. A side note: I grew up in the Orthodox Jewish community (in the UK). The community worldwide has a huge emphasis and natural genetic talent for singing.

וואוווווווווו איזה טובים הם

This song was my childhood

I would love it if you reacted to other songs from the MBC!

This is my entire childhood lol. I feel so proud, thank you 🙏🙏🙏

Wow I'm speechless

1:45 exactly. This is incredibly talented vocals from everyone.

Loved your reaction. Subscribed 👍

Shout out to ma boi yoshi bender!!

A Nice and clean review! watch this review get more reviews then any other one that you uploaded in the past few months! You are probably crawling down the orthodox Jewish music rabbit hole like @PortuguesePai 😂. I hope you do some more!!!

Uugghh I love them and I love this song!

Can you PLEASE do more MBC pretty please??

Tovia Singer said it well: If anyone thinks that the relationship between the Jew and The Land is platonic, they need to be educated! Jerusalem is a great example! THAT is what energizes these boys!

Love it. React to more jewish songs. Like lipa schmeltzer

WOW!!! Loooove. Do you have any more jewish Videos? PLEEEEEEASE make more, we would lloooooove them! Im OBSESSED!!

Praise God. Beautiful.❤❤❤

And if you only understood the lyrics, you would really appreciate it.

The choreography is very reminiscent of the Blues Brothers

They guy that came in the middle is the one and only amazing director he’s my cousin I’m related to him ❤

Please react to more of the songs on their channel.

Thank you for this. I'm an American Jew and they do not get enough credit outside of our Jewish circles.

the 3rd and 4th soloists were (for me) the standout singers. While some sound like they are just yelling, these 2 should carry on with their singing. If you like these boys, check out the Drakensberg Boys Choir.

Great video, would love to see you react to other classic religious Jewish music, like Mordecai Ben David or Abraham Fried.
