Kids are sweet
How cute, kids have such an optimistic, peaceful, sincere and lighthearted view of life... we could really learn a lot from them.
Amazing!
How many kids get to say they got to make something that awesome! I love how they're all dancing in their seats :)
Freedom
Thanks Josh for putting up this video blog. It’s really encouraging to see children being given the freedom to be themselves.
Freedom is what I’m seeking right now. My sisters and I are literally running away from an abusive situation at home. We’re old enough to leave. My mother has kept my twin sister and I trapped for four years. She’s been severely abusive to all my siblings. She did this in the name of God. That’s why I trusted her. I do believe in God and His love. It’s real. That’s why I am still alive today.
One thing my mother constantly told me was that I could never ask for help from anyone. I only ask for you guys to pray for me. We have reached out to the people who we trust and they are helping us escape. We have a place to run to. We’re traveling from Chicago to the west coast over the next few days with my dog. I know God is helping and protecting us.
I want to say thanks to Josh and his fans. You helped me to realize that there was something wrong with the situation I was in because I wasn’t allowed to live. Jesus offers abundant life. I was in prison. A hell of my mother’s making. I want to say thanks to you all and God Bless You.
I’m finally free

THANKS FOR SHARING IT!
Lots of talent in their young voices. I love New York even though I've never had the opportunity to visit that amazing city, but I'm planning to go next summer. Let's hope so.
VOICES OF THE FUTURE
Hey, really heavenly voices. They touched me deep within.
Great Work.
Our world is really a magical place
you can see it in every little childs face.
They teach us to see our wonderful light
and that love is `always`here to find.
What would the world be without children. They are our future and
deserve all our love.
Let`s take good care of them. Always.
Lots of love to all children around the world.
So sweet
OMG, it is so cute, it is so nice that someone had such an amazing idea.
Thnx for shareing.
Power of Music
I absolutely adore the PS22 Chorus! A friend of mine got me hooked on them a while back. Mr. Breinberg does a phenomenal job with these kids. It's so inspiring. I love how he incorporates popular music into the music curriculum. I'm sure it makes it fun for the kids and increases their interest in wanting to learn more about music. I love their version of the Cure's "Pictures of You". It's my favorite and makes me cry every time. You can really tell they enjoy singing and put their hearts into it. Thanks for sharing this one. I hadn't seen it yet. :~D
Mon
This is wonderful!!
This is amazing and inspiring, this is wonderful!!! And more because you can feel that they really enjoy what they are doing. I think this is something teachers and adults in general should remember, not only in New York,or USA, everywhere, give children a way to express freely, through music, through arts in general, don't brake them with just rules and square thoughts. Thankyou Josh for sharing this inspiring video!! I love it!!
Countdown to your birthday!!!: Happy Birthday for you and also for Chris, I can only imagine all the fun in your house celebrating the two birthdays together while you grew up!! Hugs and blessings in tons
Great Teachers
These kids did an amazing job with this song! This is the kind of thing a great teacher can do with a roomful of kids. How rewarding it would be to be a teacher like that!
So cute
Yeah... people get eaten here all the time!! LOL
Amazing video!
This is really wonderful. So amazing kids, nice driving, with great sence of rhuthm (song is not simple....) So much kindness to do it with them... Thank you, New York for doing it! Thank you, Josh, for sharing this video with us... May your dreams about good musical education for children will be fulfilled and may all them forget all bad and be happy!!!!!!
Love It
Wonderful video.......and I believe these kids are the norm rather than the exception. The world is full of beauty like theirs and the promise that it will never end.
It's also so great to hear them singing this song and it would be lovely if children everywhere did the same about their own town, city, country. Home is where we start, wherever that may be.

If you give children someone
If you give children someone with passion and the right drive look what they can do. How happy they look and how beautiful they sang. They truly are our future and we need to give them the best that we have. Maybe more importantly our time and love. Thank you Josh for making me smile today both on the inside and out! I'm happy to see your interest in young children. They really do need positive role models. Take care Josh, big hugs, Jackie

The Earth is not a place to
The Earth is not a place to be taken lightly. It is a place of complexity and must be put 70-648 under a close and observed eye because it need to be understood in all aspects by means of life, nature, and spirit. The Native Americans are sure to constantly take pride ion all they set out to do in life. This is a positive way of thinking and can be put into contrast to the 1Y0-A08 American view of all life forms. American take things for granted and are ususally never satisfied. This can be assumed to be a problem for society and a way to overcome this could be bettered 642-357 through the help of the Native Americans. The Native Americans have many beneficial outlooks on life that can only do americans good. By taking in this information from the Native Americans 642-426 Americans can only live out a life of increasing successs through the positive feedback that the earth gives them.
