Top of the world again
Down on creation
And the only exclamation I can find
Is the love that I've found
Ever since you've been around
You're lost with me at the top of the world
Hi, I'm Brad.
I'm John.
I'm going to do some more of the Mission Souls
because they released something else new.
We're playing catch-up still on that.
So, this one is a song by The Carpenters.
We've actually done the song before.
At least once, if not twice.
Definitely once though, because...
Oh, who was it?
From Forestella.
Cho Mingu, I think.
I don't remember.
Maybe.
Anyway.
He did it in like 12 different languages or something.
Top of the world.
Oh, great song.
Brad vaguely now remembers what I'm talking about.
Yeah.
I think it was him.
I think it was.
I think he did it in like 12 languages.
12 different languages or something.
I can't tell you.
I mean, I remember, but I...
It's...
Yeah, it has been a while, honestly.
I remember.
We do so many now.
Well, that's true.
Exactly.
Anyway.
Alright, so.
That's what we're doing.
Alright, sounds good to me.

So.
Mission Souls taking on The Carpenters.
Is this the first time we've done Mission Souls doing The Carpenters?
I'm not sure.
Yeah, same thing.
I just took that two minutes, two seconds ago.
Unless I did.
I don't remember.
I'd have to look at the ones we did the day after, too.
Mr. Postman.
That was a cartoon.
It was Mr. Postman.
Was it?
I...
That was fairly recent.
Yeah.
But, like I said, I...
Too much saying goes through my brain.
During the day, though.
I...
Oh.
I don't remember my name.
At that time.
Alright.
Check it out.
Everything I want the world to be
Is now coming true
Especially for me
And the reason is clear
It's because you are here
You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen
I'm on the top of the world again
Down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Pause for YouTube.
Yeah.
That's a great song.
It is.
It's a fun old song.
I'm trying to think if this is 60s or 70s.
It's gotta be 60s or 70s.
Well, yeah.
That's what I mean.
I was trying to think if it was late 60s or...
Anyway.
It's probably gonna be 70s.
Maybe.
Anyway.
I don't know how long carpenters are around.
Yeah.
Longer than you think but not long enough.
Yeah.
Unfortunately.
Yeah.
It's another good example of choral work
Between the layers here.
And we commented on it before on
Well, the two others that we did that had choral work on it.
It's like they're really good at doing songs that have this choral element to them.
Right.
Because they have such a nice harmony together.
I'm on the top of the world again
Down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found
Ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
Something in the wind has learned my name
And it's telling me that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees
And the touch of the breeze
There's a pleasing sense of happiness for me
There is only one wish on my mind
And as days through I hope that I will find
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
All I need will be mine if you are here
YouTube calls. Last one. Honest.
I was trying to think of what the other one, the first one, did.
Was that they had the great chorus work on singing together.
And now I can't place it.
I'm wondering if that actually was the other.
Yeah, because I remember watching it and we had to ask what other ones.
Yeah, because then we did the Beatles one after that.
Yeah, I'd have to go through our list.
I'm going to have to go back and look.
I get, so I forget what we've done.
Yeah, so do I.
And I forget things.
But yeah, it's what people don't realize.
It's actually quite hard to do.
To sing like that because you're singing in harmony with someone.
And that's tricky.
Because your natural inclination is to kind of auto tune yourself.
So that you're singing in tune with the person next to you.
Not singing something.
That's why acapella groups and barbershop quartets.
It's technically tricky to do.
Because when you sing, you have a tendency to want to auto tune.
Like I said, yourself to the person who's singing next to you.
So that you're singing in tune.
Whereas here, you've got four of them basically singing in harmony.
So they're not actually singing.
They're singing the same thing, but they're not singing the same thing.
And it is a lot trickier than people think.
Having done some work in a choir.
I'm on the top of the world again

Poor guy. He didn't have much drumming to do in that one.
No.
He looks a little bored.
Yeah, he looks a little bored right there.
Is this it?
It ain't got to be anything.
Which is strange when you stop and think about it, because she was a drummer.
Yeah.
That's not a drum.
She didn't have a big...
Drum didn't work.
Yeah.
She obviously didn't have a big part for herself in that song.
Yeah.
It's kind of like, wait, really?
You're a drummer.
I don't imagine where she'd be today, unfortunately.
But yeah, that was good, like always with them.
Yeah.
Another great rendition of a really great song.
Yeah.
I would say you had it in the 70s.
Yeah, my brain is kind of like...
Were they around in the 60s?
Yeah.
Late 60s.
I don't know.
Late 60s and early 70s.
Time just flies by.
Yeah.
To the younger generation, 60s, 70s was a long time ago.
Yeah.
It seemed like it was just yesterday.
It wasn't that long ago.
The 70s were about 30 years ago.
Yeah.
The 80s was 20 years ago.
Yeah.
