Chills

I love music. All types, all forms. I always have. Because if this, I get really excited when I find an example of music that moves me. It may make me dance, sing, stand perfectly still, or in this instance, simply shiver.

I have heard Amazing Grace sung, played, and performed countless times in my life by all sorts of artists. There is no doubt it is a beautiful song. However, when I saw the clip below, the shivers just simply ran up and down my spine as I sat motionless taking it all in. The voices of Il Divo are masterful. Placing them in the Coliseum for this performance. Perfect. The fog rolling off the bagpiper at the key moment, well...see for yourself. This to me, is just one of those musical moments where the sight, sound, and musical story all collide to create something much larger than the song itself. So click on the link below, sit back, turn up those speakers, and let it wash over you.
