Top 10 Acapella Performances on YouTube

OK, I goota admit, I truely love Acapella Music. This is kind of music build up by the most basic instrument we got, our voice. So I gonna praise this fuckin' big style of perfoming music with this top 10:

#10 Golden Overtone - Mercy by Duffy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CXJM19vH-w&feature=related
Well, al about pretty standart, but a cool performance, which actually is pretty raw among these types of singing

#9 Rusty Pipes - Ain't no mountain high enough by Marvin Gaye
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_EgVM4w7qE
Well sung by these people and a cool ending, but I think this greate song could be aranged a liitle bit better. Actually I couldn't find a better version on youtube.

#8 UC Men's Octet - 500 Miles by The Proclaimers
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMWjlQZkecw
Really greate performance an this song just rocks!

#7 UC Men's Octet - Billy Jean by Michael Jackson
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo0HwvNTf6Q&feature=related
The greates background sounds I've ever heard

#6 Golden Overtone - It's in his kiss by Aretha Franklin
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2pxc9ghMNc&feature=related
Just the perfect song or these girls an a killer arangement. The lead singer rocks the house. Sicerly, women are always a liitle bit worse then men cause they can't reach the really low bass tones, which is neccessary for acapelly singing. But this performance is the best I've ever seen from women.

#5 Accafellas - Wonderfull Tonight by Eric Clapton with Proposal
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItnQ4VefqtE
One of my all time favourit song greate performed. The Part for the Proposal is just killer. I like these guys so much because their arangements are so much on point.

#4 Boys 2 Men - End of the Road
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppX5MQkyeUA&feature=related
Well, if you want to get in a girls pants this song works ALL THE TIME. The voices of this guys are so perfect and fitted together. Killer arangement.

#3 UW Redefined - Nintendo Medlay
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSBIAGCulDw&feature=related
How awesome is that. Reminds me of my younger days. Killer arangement, killer perfomrance, killer singing. I love this one.

#2 UC Men's Octet - Bohemian Rapsody by Queen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyqpjkCwEI4
Well, this song is prett much made to be sung acapella. These guys are doin' it in perfection.

#1 Miami University Men's Orchestra - Halleluja by Leonard Cohen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8dwWk3-vmo&feature=related
I love this song, but how this one is aranged, I could not see a better one. It's so though to this for so many people. You really have to give these guys some credit for this beautifull piece of art.

Mentionable Honor:

UW Redefined - Afica by Toto
These guys always have greate backgrounds. Just didn't made the cut. But I love this song so much, so I have to mention it. Sadly some wrong notes and chords. The guy how's singing the high parts should do the song.
