Oakville crooners cause video to go viral - VIDEO
by S.J. Velasquez • January 15, 2013 @ 1:06pm
A group of senior citizens filled a southern Ontario Tim Hortons with song and ended up earning themselves international appeal after a video of the group’s a capella performance was posted to YouTube.
Since Danfi Parker uploaded the video of the Entertainers, a men’s chorus based in southern Ontario, to the internet a week ago, the rendition of “Can You Feel the Love Tonight?” has amassed more than 820,000 views.
“Refreshing and endearing,” Parker wrote in the video’s description, and viewers agreed, apparently.
Over the course of the week, the Entertainers have been highlighted in newscasts and even featured on Tim Hortons’ official Facebook page.
The Entertainers meet Monday nights to rehearse, and then they head over to the nearby Oakville Timmies for warm drinks and socializing—harmonizing, too, it seems. Oakville is about an hour drive from Buffalo.
