Four schoolboys created a classic Christmas moment with an absolutely side-splitting mime that many fans come back to every year. In a cheeky performance that drew 4.8 million views, the youngsters mime to a rendition of “A Christmas Carol Of Love.” The incongruity between their fresh faces and the deep bass vocal lines is just too funny. When the bass vocal verse comes and the boy on the right really sells the performance, it’s such a great moment.
What performers these lads are, with the crowd just eating out of the palm of their hands! Their cheeky grins and how well they rehearsed the moves make the performance a joy to watch. It’s pretty rare that completely unknown performers like this go viral across the planet, but The Music Man has to say that these boys certainly deserve it, and that they have a real flair for the stage.
Viewers watching at home were loving the Christmas performance and added comments such as “This is hysterical! Those boys have real talent and timing” and “This is a Christmas tradition for me since I saw this several years ago. I have to see this video over and over. I know these boys are all grown up now but I hope they realize the joy they have spread over the years with this video.”
Another viral classic kids’ performance came when a group of six Korean students performed “Jingle Bell Rock.” This video, which drew 3.7 million views, went viral after the center performer in black really nailed the choreography like a pro, drawing comments from impressed viewers. Perhaps she has some ballet training because she really brings some style to the performance. The cuteness factor of the youngsters, who might have been in the first year of school, also made the video a hit with viewers.
The four boys’ performance of “A Christmas Carol of Love” was uploaded by FBTChannel, which is the YouTube channel of the ministry of the Florence Baptist Temple in Florence, South Carolina.
The Music Man reader may note that FBTChannel has uploaded a number of live performances over the years, but the performance by the four boys, labeled as the FBT Little Quartet, is the first to go really viral and hit a seven-figure view count.
