Has anyone seen this video on youTube or elsewhere?

Young@Heart is a group of elderly who travel the world signing and performing on stage. You can learn more about them on their website (http://www.youngatheartchorus.com)
When you watch the video, you can't help but realize that even though the words of the song have not been changed the context is a bit different. The fact that you can hear what sounds like the singer's oxygen tank only adds to this in my opinion. It reminded me of some of the covers sung by Johnny Cash on the American Recordings.
What do you think? Like it, love it, hate it? Do you know of any other interesting covers by others?
I in no way discovered this all on my own... I found it while playing along with Battle of the Blogs @ Blog Explosion (on this site http://www.scott-o-rama.com/2006/12/14/fix-you/)
