Sister Act Music
The music from Sister Act has become popular with girl choirs. The same song appears in this flash mob.
This reunion features a different song.
I've always loved the movie. It was a great comedy. But more than that, it held a lot of truth. It spoke to a very real problem: people leaving the church ("Because it's a drag!") and the challenge of enticing them back ("Get some butts in the seats!"). Bringing in the pop music element got people excited and made church seem more enjoyable and relevant instead of a chore. The fact that the music has become popular just underscores that. The story may be fictional, but the problem is real and the solution works. \o/
