…and in ways you’d never expect. <\/p>\n
This is just incredibly cool. The description on YouTube puts it thusly: <\/p>\n
This is a song about a church being moved hundreds of miles across the US on the back of a very big lorry. Features the 40 strong Manning Chorus in what is possibly one of the most bizzare bits of TV I’ve ever been involved in – a musical number at the end of a show about, basically, feats of engineering skill. Some of the footage is amost Fellini-esque. It’s taken from the upcoming series MONSTER MOVES which airs on Five (UK) and National Geographic (USA) from early 2007. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
You have to see it to believe it. It will make you smile. Enjoy. <\/p>\n
