This also from Thursday, good reaction from the audience at the end.

Thank you! Gabriel has a very clear voice.

Can anyone send me a link where I can see it?

I'm watching the live feed, and have been enjoying it immensely, but it is late in Poland! The boys need to be in bed! Not to mention my family is going to get home, and the noise level in the house will rise.

Thank you!!!!

I cant't imagine that the Boys will perform such Late!!!!

At least they're saving the best for last... especially considering what's gone on before.

And they are coming!

Its starting!

Libera - 'Total Praise'... well that was a curveball, have they sung this before? Nice solo by Alessandro.

And boys are comung back to stage!

Wow. What a surprise.
To my knowledge that was a completely new song - and did anyone see that coming? And what a beauty.
I confess it moved me deeply.
I have been watching the whole Vigil and the concert and feel that this has been one blessed night. And I'm so happy the Libera boys got to be part of it!
Boy, do they surprise us...

Really? It was a poor choice in my opinion - they had so much more to offer than a third rate American gospel song 'Total Praise' - frankly the whole concert was tedious in the extreme and more suited to a retirement home than a gathering of young people. Evidence that music within the Catholic church is dead and forgotten if proof were needed.

Grrrr... tried to capture it but it's out of audio sync. Hope someone else has managed it. Always a pain when capturing from web stream. It would have been safer with a known song of theirs. I wonder how much choice they had in selecting the one they did. I don't think they could have sung it any better, but it needs to grow on me.

I agree how the whole concert though. It was quite tiresome at times.

Admittedly, it wasn't an obvious choice. However, Libera has sung quite a few American folk songs, and they always turn out decent. "Total Praise" seems like a song that fit in with the rest of the music presented in the concert as well. Perhaps they were asked to sing a gospel song by superiors involved in the event to streamline the entire concert.

I agree. For my opinion, this performance was not good. The mics caused, that the voices were not balanced. You hear single voices louder than the others. The sound was bad. I was disappointed. They can do very much better. And htf could anyone decide that the performance is such late??? This is WYD! My kids are sleeping! Since Hours!!!
