"Doe, a deer, a female deer. Ray, a drop of golden Sun. Me, a name I call myself." That's not quite what you'd expect hear at a train station in Belgium, but that's what happened when 200 people took over Antwerpen's Centraal Station to do a carefully choreographed dance to the song from Sound of Music. As one observer put it, "It showed me that good things are still out there and there are good people in the world. In a small way, I have a deeper understanding of what it is to be human because of the actions of 200 fellow humans in a train station in Belgium."

    Happiness is with everyone but we fail to expose the same. This song that too played in a public place united all those people to expose their happiness. Let this happiness sustain for ever.

    Being both a TBI patient and a musician the connection between music and the brain is fascinating, My neurologist said to me when he found out that I played an instrument said " Keep on playing." "We do not know of any other activity that will help the brain rewire itself as well as listening to music and even better playing music," That video made me smile and gave me a heart warming feeling that is indescribable. The spontaneity of the group of people is amazing and wonderful. I previously saw the original stage production of The Sound of Music on Broadway in NY when I was 10, that and West Side Story still ting in my mind. I find different things daily to grow and exercise my brain in day to day life and continue on the fascinating journey. Stephen Vernon Portland Or.

    Where would we be without JOY ? Where would we be without MUSIC ? Where would we be without DANCING ? Where would we be without SHARING ? Put simply, we wouldn't, would we ?

    This is what life is supposed to be about: Joy, creativity, togetherness, happiness, and sharing. I cried and felt hope for the human race for the first time in a long time watching this video. Thank you!

    It is one of the first flashmob videos I have seen , and still is probably the best. I also hated the Sound of Music when I first saw it as an angsty teenager, but then saw the movie again a few days ago and was overwhelmed by its sheer joy and innocence - just like this video. For the unsuspecting audience, what a wonderful way to start a cold morning.

    Deep inside each of us is the hunger to be happy, joyous and sharing. It was sheer joy to see so many respond with such unplanned emotion as they got caught up in the music, words and abandon of all ages. This is a keeper.

    This video made me cry. I don't know why, but, it seems that people break into song and dance only in musicals. Maybe it's a kind of meta experience to have people break into joyous harmony and dance during ordinary life. What a lovely gift!

    The fact that So many people around the wowrld know The Sound Of Music. The song's impact allowed the people to be free and become one. Very inspiring. Would love to try it somewhere.

    Beautiful, uplifting and so well done. Made us both feel good and elated to see such joy depicted by the performers. The response of the crowd shows how joy can be contagious. Hard to understand anyone finding criticism with something so uplifting. Happy New Year to all-may God bless all.

    I wonder if anyone was so caught up in this extraordinary demonstration that they missed their train. Who cares why or how it was done. The point is that it was done and done beautifully.

    Hey, Bill, shape up, who cares if they were paid - if you can make people smile through what does it matter? It's a pity members of parliament the world over, who are also paid, don't do this every morning! There wouldn't be room for hate. It should be reimbursed by the social security.Thank you, Karma! Keep them coming!!!!
