If this group of endearing and inspiring youngsters have not yet managed to catch your eye on blogs, websites or stages, then don't worry, IYS is always here to help. After covering the Passion Pit song "The Reeling," the PS22 Chorus conducted by Gregg Breinberg have been raising hair on the backs of necks across the globe. Read on after the jump for a look at their latest melodic revamp of the Phoenix number "Lisztomania."

The chorus is the product of annual auditions at Staten Island's largest elementary school "which pulls from a wide cross section of ethnic groups and socio-economic levels." The thing that really grabs you from this home-made video of the class's latest cover, is the love and feeling that every child can be seen putting into every word and harmony. It really does blow you away. Childhood innocence and overprotective shelter are replaced by an overwhelming sense of pride and enjoyment while these kids do their thing - they truly are inspiring.

The PS22 Chorus have performed alongside the likes of Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Common and Tori Amos. Keep your eyes peeled for more fantastic collaborations and covers.
