I was so moved by your performance of Gabrielle... i had never heard the song before, after loving your version i decided to check out the original... i didnt have anywhere near the effect it had when you guys sang it... in my eyes the most compelling and moving piece in this competition.. thank you!

Helen Yeomans, Glorious Chorus, Totnes, Devon 2008-08-19

You guys are fresh, innovative, modern, and beautiful to watch - such diversity. You had the courage (and ability) to sing a-cappella, which most other choirs didn't, and showed your true colours. You're brilliant. Your arrangements were excellent (how the hell did you manage to rehearse them so quickly???!!@!), breathing new life into every song you performed.
I love the other work you do for your community and bringing singing to a new audience. Singing is about taking part, not idolizing. So I'll shut up now.
You deserved to win.
Respect to you all

I knew there was something special about you guys.
Many people will let you down, you command your own success, your story will be told in your songs.
No doubt our paths will cross again.
