On a whim at rehearsal today, I decided to try this song (one of my favorite songs from high school) on the PS22 Chorus, and what a perfect fit! This is "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want" by The Smiths!
Thanks to Ms. Laurie for filming!
UPDATE 5-12-11: Johnny Marr, guitarist from The Smiths, tweeted about the PS22 Chorus version of "Please, Please, Please...." -- check it out below!

So love PS22 and all you are doing with these amazing children. My son is also a music teacher and is so inspired by what you have done and continue to do. God bless you all on this journey !!
Just lovely. Nice arrangement and dynamics. Just keep 'em coming.
Wow, just wow! I must confess I wasn't aware of how great you are! I've been watching and listening to your performances and you guys blew me away! Oh, and please, please, please accept David Cook's offer to hang out for a day and sing together ;)
A friend shared this link on Facebook and I was blown away- teachers get a lot of guff and not nearly enough credit it seems, so you need to hear this: you are doing amazing things with these kids! Introducing them to the Smiths is important all by itself, but the joy of learning you can see on their faces, the disciplined work ethic and focus that they will take with them to all subjects- so impressive! Tell the kids how impressed we all are by their hard work and talent- even way out here in Iowa!
WOW. One of my favorite songs made better by your unbelievably talented crew. Well done, guys! You inspire. :-)
