The Webby Arrives.....



...and it is stunning! If you haven't, make sure you check out the PS22's incredible Webby Award performance and highly memorable 5 word acceptance speech!

20 Million Views!!



The PS22 Chorus is proud to have achieved over 20,000,000 viewings of videos on our main YouTube channel! (That doesn't even include the millions of hits garnered from PS22's alternate channel, Schooltube channel, and third party posters!) As a matter of fact, with the amazing week they've had, the kids almost completely bypassed the 20 million, and will most likely have scored 21 million views by tomorrow's end. Congrats kids, and heartfelt thanks especially to Ms. Lisa & Mrs. Johnson, who together have filmed the bulk of the videos on our channel!


In other video views news, PS22's #1 most watched video, "Just Dance" by Lady Gaga has earned itself an extra cool million hits this week from being featured as a spotlight video on YouTube's home page on Thursday! This brings the total # of views of that video to over 3.5 million! Who could ever have imagined?? To quote Albert Justin F., "The saga will continue!"

Mustard Relish Hot Dog Clip Art

Today we bring you another entry in the hot dog clip art series. This one is a mustard and relish hot dog clipart image. I have never been a big fan of relish so the image doesn't look particularly appetizing to me, but I know there are lots of people out there that love it so maybe they'll enjoy the image more!

In any case I can appreciate the design and artistry that when into creating it.

PS22 Chorus Gets A Makeover!



As you might have noticed, things look a little different 'round these parts. Hugest thanks to chorus mega-fan, Zendrig, who took the time to design our amazing new header pic!! (The main image featuring the upcoming PS22 Chorus of 2011 was kindly donated to the cause by Time Out New York for Kids and its photographer, Jordan Hollender. Big thanks to them too!) Zen put everything together magnificently, and it's a beautiful tribute to the accomplishments of the kids! The new header inspired other changes, and we're very excited about the new look of the blog overall! Still working out some changes, so bear with us as we install them.

To download the new masterpiece of a header in it's original size click on it below! (It happens to make for a great wallpaper!)

Black and White Hot Dog Clip Art

Last time I brought you the most simple hot dog clip art image I could find, since we can build up from there and check out progressively more interesting images. But today's images are black and white hot dog clip art. These are great because you can color them anyway you want and make them uniquely yours.

Hot dogs don't look quite so appetizing when they're totally lacking color, do they?

Just Dance Remix!


Ok, so how cool is this?! Thanks to YouTube user Mattiaskn123 for this awesome homage to the PS22 Chorus version of Lady Gaga's "Just Dance!"


PS22 Chorus of 2011 gets placed in Time Out!



The PS22 Chorus of 2011 is off to a flying start before they've even begun! The upcoming group is already getting some amazing spotlight as the cover feature of Time Out NY for Kids August 2010 issue!! In addition, Time Out's website has an awesome multi-media component that includes a great article with some fantastic group pics and 2 preview videos of the kids rehearsing, including this one below.




But that's not all! Perhaps the best feature on the online-version is an in-depth look at the new members, which includes a comprehensive slideshow with individual pics and quotes from each of the 37 children selected for the 2011 group so far! Already the PS22 Chorus feature is the #1 most viewed article on their site! (Check out the screencap below!)



Below check out a small sample of the great pics from Time Out, courtesy of the magazine. Big thanks to Rory Halperin and all those involved with putting together this amazing piece!!

Summer Stock



Here are some goodies I've come across while sorting through the archives! More great vids will surface throughout the summer so stay tuned! But presented here:

1) An alternate version of "One Day" by Matisyahu, featuring Miguelito and Eddie from our final chorus practice! Miguelito sounds great taking over on the spot for a vacationing Leah, and Eddie shows he's all multi-talented and stuff!




2) An alternate version of "Pearls" by Sade from February, featuring a chilling a cappella intro!




3) A solo version of "Naturally" by Selena Gomez as performed by Karinna on the day of our final chorus rehearsal! She does such a great job on this spontaneous hallway rendition!




4) A solo version of "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift from Brielle filmed on May 21. Love the different spin she puts on the song!




5) A solo version of "Disturbia" by Rihanna from Allie that was filmed sometime during the 2008-9 school year! Always awesome to hear Allie...

More Mustard Hot Dogs Clipart

Here's another simple hot dog with mustard clipart, in case you need another one. It's not too different from one of the previous images, but I wanted to give you a wide variety of options to choose from. Look at the subtleties of design and artistry and choose the one that you feel is the best match.

Simple Hot Dog Clip Art

Since I have been getting a lot of requests for hot dog clip art, I decided to bring some to Clipart For Free. So over the next few entries I'll be bringing you some great hot dog clip art images.

Hot dogs are not the most nutritious food in the world. They're made from a mix of throwaway meat products and flavored with a little spice to make them taste like something! But hot dogs bring back lots of childhood memories for me. Especially hot dog day at school, when kids would be treated to hot dogs and other goodies at lunch time. I also have a lot of birthday party memories that come up when I eat hot dogs.

The first entry in our hot dog clip art series is this most simple hot dog image:

Celtic Gifts!



Another huge thank you to Celtic Woman, for sending the PS22 Chorus some truly amazing personalized keepsakes from our unforgettable experience with them back in February. Above, you can see a pic of a drum skin they sent us that was signed by practically everyone in the Celtic camp! They even took the time to send individual autographs, signed by all five members of the group, for everyone in the chorus! But perhaps the greatest gift of all is watching these reflections on their time with PS22 both at Radio City Music Hall and in our school auditorium in these awesome videos below! Love and thanks for all the kind words and gifts!! We're truly blown away, and so grateful!

Computer Mouse Clipart

In the last clipart entry we posted some mouse clipart pictures, as in the animal. But a sizeable number of people found that page while searching for a different kind of image: computer mouse clipart. So today we decided to provide the other kind of mouse so that everybody can find the clipart they are looking for.

I personally love wireless computer mouses. Those are the best because they allow you to sit down and do work a little farther away from the computer screen. But I also like using the built-in touch mouse on my notebook mini-pc.

Here are some computer mouse clipart. For more great images try clker.com

Now I hope you found the kind of mouse you were looking for.

David's Encore Performances! *UPDATED*



Check out this brilliant reprise of "Not The Red Baron" by Tori Amos as performed by PS22 Chorus alum, David! Long time PS22 Chorus fans may recall David's original rendition of this from way back in June of 2003, truly one of my favorite PS22 solo performances of all time. Now almost 18 here, he shows his voice has only developed and improved with time....




UPDATE: And here is David singing a fantastic version of "Amazing Grace."


Mouse Clipart

Today we bring you some mouse clipart. You may be searching for a different type of mouse, the computer instrument known as a mouse, but these images are not of a computer mouse. They are clipart images of the animal from the rodent family.

Some people may be hesitant to put a mouse clip art image on their website because mice are considered "gross" by a lot of people. But I guess that is a matter of perspective, because I think mice are cute and harmless. Whatever your impression of them is, here are some mouse clipart down below.


The first two images appear courtesy of clker.com.
