    Everybody here talking about the trumpets but you gotta respect those 2 soloists for how beautiful they played
  • @gingahninja7956
    The two highest notes ever played in dci have been by that trumpet soloist
  • Anyone else keep coming back to watch it every so often just because?
  • @Bxrry
    this show made my life perfect
  • @GCurtisJr
    1:40 I would have cried at this part if I was there live. This is insanely amazing
  • @mj09552
    I just saw the full version of this performance today for the first time and cried after the baritone duet. I am currently deployed and am experiencing the worst in humanity every other day. This reminded me of what the best of human creation can be. Thank you to those who played and danced in this performance. You have brought music back into my soul which has been lost for over 5 years now.
  • I cant believe there won’t be a 2023 tour. Who could’ve expected this when this was only 4 years ago. 😢
  • @mel-px7hl
    I feel like people only like this show for the ballad & the mellophone sustain in the closer. Otherwise, you never hear much else about the rest. There’s so many under-appreciated aspects of Babylon: the small ensemble/ duets in Metropolis 1927, the Club Sound dance, the backflip chap at the end of the opener. There’s so many gems that are simply overlooked.
  • @samhouck1833
    I like that part where they played those instruments and made those sounds. Ugh. So good.
  • Holy shit. That part in the baritone solo where everything goes quiet and all you can hear is the soloist gets me every time. Same with the brass hit. This ballad is literally the best I’ve ever heard because of those baritones. Huge props to them!
  • @TheNutshaq
    This might go down as the greatest ballad ever performed
  • @awesomeboxlord
    They snapped their horns so fast they broke the sound barrier making a sonic boom Edit: i checked this comment today and i dont know why this got 1.2k likes
