Sunnyland was very lucky today to have the
Bellingham High School Showstoppers visit and perform for about 30 minutes. Showstoppers is an advanced choral group at BHS made of mostly (very talented) Juniors and Seniors, but some highly talented Sophomores and Freshmen are part of the group, too.
Students in fourth grade described the group as "amazing, outstanding, awesome, and talented!"
Some of the songs they performed were:
Don't You Worry Child, I am Not Yours, I Can Tell The World, and they closed with a fabulous song and dance of Michael Jackson's Thriller!
This is one of the pieces they performed for us. At the State Competition, they received a PERFECT SCORE from the judges for this performance. Bravo!
Showstoppers performed several songs a cappella. They were so together! One student said, "They were almost as good as Katy Perry!" Another said, "They were like one of those groups from the movie Pitch Perfect."
Some of the boys in the group formed a smaller group called
Chief of Staff. They sang a song called Brave.
The finale: Thriller!
Some questions we have for the Showstoppers are:
- How long has Dorothy been a Showstopper?
- How long does it take to get that good? What do you have to do?
- Aidan, how do you beat box so well?
- What is Chief of Staff's new CD called? When is it available?
- Have any of you performed with BAAY? If yes, what shows have you been in?
- Have any of you heard of or are fans of the a cappella group PTX?
- If you had to describe your group with one word, what would it be?
- Have all of you been singers since you were little?
Thank you for coming to Sunnyland!
Dear Mr. Pahl's Class,
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a really fun performance! What was your favorite part of the performance? Do you want to become a showstopper after seeing them perform?
-Megan from WWU
Dear Megan,
DeleteI would really want to be a Showstopper but I’m just stage fright which is a bummer because I love to sing! It would be really nice if I wasn’t stage fright because then I could do talent shows! But I don’t like to sing in front of people.
Sincerely, Annabella
Dear Megan, my favorite part was the one where they sang thriller by Michael Jackson. When I grow up I want to be a show stopper it would be brilliant! Do you want to be a show stopper? Please answer!
DeleteCheerio, Charlie
Dear Megan
DeleteMy favorite part was when they sang Brave.

Dear Megan,
DeleteAfter seeing them perform I want to be just like them and perform with those super good grades. They’re just so amazing and talented, and my favorite part of their performance is when the performed Thriller by Michael Jackson.
-Izabelle,
Dear Megan,
DeleteThe Showstoppers were incredible and inspiring. I agree with Izabelle, I want to be just like them and I wish I could be in their group. My favorite performance that they did was “Don’t You Worry Child.”
-Charlize
Dear Megan,
DeleteMy two favorite parts were when the five boys sang Brave. My second favorite part was when they preformed Thriller by Michael Jackson! About the five boys who sang brave, I really liked how the one in the middle (he is the one with the blonde hair) had a really amazing voice!
Sincerely, Kyle
Dear Megan,
DeleteMy favorite part of the show was when at the end when they did the song Thriller by Michael Jackson. I probably would not like a job like that because I’m really shy so I might have stage fright.
Sincerely, Ellis
Dear Megan,
DeleteI would not like to be a show stopper because I am a shy person and would not be able to get up in front of even just a few people and sing. My favorite part was the thriller by Michel Jackson.
From, Kayden
Dear Megan,
DeleteMy favorite song was brave.
From Mike
Dear Brody,
DeleteI really liked the BEAT BOXER.
From Mike
Dear Charlie,
DeleteI love Thriller by Michael Jackson so I bet that would have been my favorite too! I'm not sure if I would want to be a Showstopper. I think its really fun to watch people dance, but I'm not very good at it so I think I would rather be in the audience watching!
-Megan
Opps!
DeleteCharlie, I had a typo in my last comment. I meant I'm not very good at singing, but I'm not that great at dancing either...
-Megan
Dear Megan,
DeleteMy favorite part was the end when they sang Thriller. I loved the dance that they did with it. I wish my voice was good enough to be a Show Stopper. Unfortunately, my voice isn’t.
From, Sam
Dear Megan,
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun performance to see the quire sing. They can do a lot of things with just their voices. I was really surprised about how much they could sing. My favorite part was when they danced. It was really fun to see that. But I don’t think I would want to be them because I have a different dream.
From Mr. Pahl’s Class, Eli
Dear Eli,
DeleteI'm glad you enjoyed the performance! I don't think I would want to be a showstopper either because my dream is to become a teacher. What is you dream?
-Megan
Dear Megan,
ReplyDeleteI would love to become a Show Stopper, because I really like to sing.
My Favorite part was when they danced to the all-time popular song Thriller by Michael Jackson!
Sincerely, Evyn (Mr. Pahls 4rth Grade Student)
That show that the high school kids did was amazing I could not even sing that good and I wonder how they even make those sounds with their lips. From Brian

Dear Megan,
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the performance was Michael Jackson's Thriller! My seconded favorite part was, when they sang “I am Not Yours, I Can Tell The World” because my dad and I loved that song very much! Plus the song reminds me about my dad when he is away. My third favorite part of the performance was when the “Chef of Staff” sang one of my other favorite song, Brave. And yes Megan maybe in high school I might become one of the showstoppers!!!!
