This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Vanderbilt chapter.

The Vanderbilt community has always a special place in our hearts for the Melodores, but after their big Sing Off win, our passing affection has reached full-on fangirl status. Here are a few things that we just can’t get over:

1) They’re mega talented

Take a minute and go watch some of their YouTube videos, and you’ll see for yourself: these guys are good. The transfixing soloists and seamlessly arranged backing vocals will have you hooked.

2) Their shows are always entertaining

Angelic voices aside, these guys know how to put on a show. Their incredible energy and well-polished choreography (Wiggle, anyone?) make a capella interesting.

3) They’re so dang cute

We all know that there is nothing cuter than a group of guys in matching outfits singing acapella music. This is scientific fact. It also doesn’t hurt that these guys are pretty easy on the eyes.

4) They’re casually famous

These boys are more than campus celebrities now; they’ve made it to the big time. After taking America to church on The Sing Off and having one of their own get a role in Pitch Perfect 2 (Senior Ted Moock), the melolove has spread across the country.

Vanderbilt

Stacey Oswald, originally from South Florida, came to Vanderbilt as a member of the class of 2015 and got involved with HerCampus her freshman year. She became assistant editor that year and is now the Campus Correspondent for Vanderbilt HC as a sophomore. Stacey is currently a columnist for Ask Miss A- Nashville and the life section of The Hustler. She's also very involved in her sorority, Kappa Delta, as well as Invisible Children. Outside of school and her extracurriculars, Stacey finds happiness in many sources, the most crucial being exercise and the sun. She loves to attend exercise classes and is an avid runner; she recently completed the Country Music Half Marathon. She also loves Vitamin D, especially when on the beach- though of course, she only soaks up the sun after applying SPF. A few of the things Stacey couldn't live without? Good food (especially from Sweet Cece's, Bricktops, and Samurai Sushi), great books (The Hypnotist's Love Story is a recent favorite), her family back in Florida, her wonderful boyfriend, and all of the great friends she's made at Vanderbilt.
