Paul Phoenix is a fantastic tenor. He just perfectly blends his chest and head voices and can compliment both the countertenors or the baritones when needed. Amazing.
@@crashstitches79 This muthafucka just said how we ALL felt at first glance of the “Adroitly” comment. Don’t judge him too hard Viva.. he just got back from a wine tasting. 😆
The King's Singers best Group arrangement in my opinion. I think these guys have much more character than those currently representing The King's Singer
This is my second favourite lineup! I absolutely love Paul Phoenix on the tenor, Stephen Conolly on the bass, Philip Lawson on the baritone, David Hurley on the countertenor, Robin Tyson on the countertenor, and Christopher Gabbitas on baritone, Actually I just like this whole lineup!
I still think that the original version that the King singers did in the 80s was much better. However, I have to say that this is not a bad version at all.
I heard this music for the first time in the early 1960's on my Dad's 78 rpm records. It has always stuck with me. These guys are fantastic. As Bugs Bunny told Elmer Fud in the Rabbit of Seville What's Up Doc.
Jaw Drop. My family has an old videotape of the previous king singers doing this exact song. We never really remembered or found out where it was recorded but it became a part of our family lore, nobody else knew what the heck we were doing when we started doing excerpts from it. Seeing this. Mind blow jaw drop, insides totally giggly.
They're all incredible, but I think David Hurley is my favorite in the group. :3 He has such a pure tone in his voice, and I personally think he makes the best facial expressions. He's so fun to watch. You can tell he really loves what he does.
