Yeah, that's what I meant. Christmas Convo was hilarious too. The worship band super heroes bit was great.

I miss Christmas Coffeehouse and Christmas Convo, those were fun.

[BJWilliams]

I watched Christmas Convo again last night and they really did a good job this year...although there wasnt the dialogue about skipping 11 on the 12 Days of LU like previous years...

See e mail thread below. Even an ABC station in the one of the biggest markets in the US called tonight wanting to interview some of the kids in the choir.


And, Perez Hilton, the infamous judge who asked Carrie Prejean about the definition of marriage posted it at 5:40PM tonight with this comment:

"If this doesn't get you into the spirit of the season, nothing will!
Please enjoy this rousing and joyous rendition of The Bed Intruder Song as performed by the a cappella group of Liberty University.( above)
Pure GENIUS!"

It definitely has the creativity needed to have viral tendencies. Thanks for the links.

The Sing-Off (NBC) — Guhhh, this show is doing better and better in the ratings. This is why we can’t have nice things, America. While we’re on the subject of a capella singing, here’s Liberty University’s group performing a Christmas carol-ified version of “Bed Intruder” (below).

That was on one of the tv blogs I read.

[JLFJR]

They are up to 330,000 views on youtube now and the students are getting invitations to appear on national TV shows to perform.

Did someone suggest media training? I am always just a phone call away and flights from Houston can have me there in hours. It'd be a great break from my typical regimen of Big Oil execs and high tech brainiacs.

[thepostman]

yeah, seriously...just reading the ignorant comments on some of these sites the video has been posted on should be proof enough that media training of some kind should be provided...Its awesome its getting so much attention but it also has revealed how much hatred people have still towards Jerry Falwell. Its really sad

It's now on the LU splash page: http://www.liberty.edu/index.cfm?PID=18495&MID=24615

Within a week, the video has captured more than 430,000 views on YouTube and has captured the attention of media outlets across the country, Comedy Central and numerous other bloggers. The video also has cracked YouTube’s top 50 viewed and rated videos of the week.

Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr. said NBC has contacted the school about showing the video on “The Today Show” and possibly “America’s Got Talent” later this year.
