Radiohead’s “Creep” Sung by a 1,600-person Choir in Australia

Well, this one made me cry a bit…

Everybody can sing—maybe not well—but should that stop you? That’s the philosophy of Pub Choir, based in Brisbane, Australia. At each Pub Choir event, a conductor “arranges a popular song and teaches it to the audience in three-part harmony.” Then, the evening culminates with a performance that gets filmed and shared on social media. Anyone (18+) is welcome to attend.

This time, they sang a favorite of mine, Radiohead’s “Creep”.

Yes, I still ask myself every day, “What the hell am I doing here? I don’t belong here…” – such is the life of anyone suffering from imposter syndrome. But this song always helps.

Enjoy.

An Ethic of Excellence

After letting it sit on my bookshelf for almost a year, I dove into this book from Ron Berger. I wish I had started sooner. So many thoughts and ideas about what school can be for our students showed up in this book, helping me feel like I’m not crazy.

Anyone interested in remaking schools into something more than a place where students are forced to learn things they don’t care about should read this book. The stories and ideas are well worth the quick read and can give you fuel to make a change in your own building.
