In this acappella cover of ‘Don’t Stop Believin’,’ the group VoicePlay performs the iconic song alongside students at Camp A Cappella.
“Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere”
Everyone knows the words to this Journey song, and it is hard not to sing along to it whenever you hear the music. As soon as that first line hits, everyone always seems to jump in!
The members of VoicePlay look like they are having such a fun time in this video while they are singing with the kids at Camp A Cappella, the first and largest a cappella camp in the world. And the campers are smiling from ear to ear and having such a great time singing as well. They are in their element!
The song has such a full sound with all of the voices contributing, and you can feel the fun energy that is exuding from everyone in the video when you listen to the music. The harmonies are wonderful, and the different parts really add to the song.
Singing can bring great joy to yourself and to those around you. All throughout scripture, singing and music are mentioned many times when talking about joy, and it’s a wonderful gift that God has given us. What a blessing it is to make music and listen to music that others have created!
Psalm 27:6
“Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the LORD.”
Psalm 132:9
“May your priests be clothed with your righteousness; may your faithful people sing for joy.”
