Staten Island's got talent!

I have found something amazing on YouTube. Actually, about 70 amazing somethings. Seventy amazing 10-year-old singing somethings.
They are called the PS22 Chorus, and they are a group of fifth graders from a public school in Staten Island. They perform covers of songs like "Just Dance" by Lady GaGa and "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor. These kids are amazing. They learn all the lyrics, create great harmonies, and really get into the music.
The kids have been nationally recognized, too, and have even performed for Beyonce and Lady GaGa, among others. The chorus has performed all over New York, along with wowing everyone who watches their videos.
Here are a couple of my favorites from the chorus. The harmony in "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay is beautiful, and the kids really show enthusiasm in "Run This Town" by Jay-Z and Rihanna.
Major props to these students and their teacher, who can be seen in the videos playing piano or guitar. I can't wait to see what else they do!
