Quincy Lets Its Housing Video Go
Sunday morning, freshmen all around the Yard received notes under their doors. Quincy had released the first housing day video of the 2014 season.
Two weeks ago, Lowell released its housing day video trailer, which is a cover of “Drunk in Love,” aptly named “Drunk in Lowell.” Adams, too, released a trailer two weeks ago, with a cover of Lorde’s “Royals.”
The Quincy HoCo has jumped on the bandwagon of another musical phenomenon that has swept the nation: Disney’s Frozen.
The video starts out with a brief adaptation of “Do you want to build a snowman?” with Quincy residents asking “Do you want to live in Quincy?” Even though those singing really have nothing on a young adorable Anna, life in Quincy seems pretty ideal after watching this video.
The song soon turns into a striking rendition of “Let It Go,” performed by Quincy resident Pilar I. Fitzgerald ’15. Choosing a song from Frozen is especially poignant, given that Quincy’s mascot is a penguin.
We just have one issue with the chorus, where Pilar sings, “Here with my friends I’ll fly.” Don’t they know that penguins can’t fly?
