Few songs have the enduring appeal of “You Raise Me Up,” a track that has been covered by countless artists since its release in 2001. While versions by Josh Groban and Westlife are widely known, one rendition stands out for its emotional intensity and vocal brilliance—the acapella cover by BYU Vocal Point.
Founded in 1991, BYU Vocal Point is a nine-member acapella group known for their impeccable harmonies and dynamic performances. They gained national recognition after placing fifth in the third season of NBC’s The Sing-Off and signed with Decca Gold, a classical label under Universal Music Group, in 2018.
Their rendition of “You Raise Me Up” is a vocal masterpiece. The group’s ability to blend their voices seamlessly creates a sound that is both haunting and uplifting. The accompanying music video, which features the group exploring a mountainous landscape, adds a visual dimension that enhances the song’s message of hope and inspiration.
This version of “You Raise Me Up” is a testament to the power of music and the extraordinary talent of BYU Vocal Point. If you haven’t heard it yet, prepare to be amazed.
