This is the time to be *chipper*, people, " yelled Joey, before rallying stranded commuters downtown Toronto in a rendition of You are the one that I want.
=cheerful, full of vitality?
Another question: Did he sing the song to the crowd, in this case?
Thanks |

Yes, and Yes.
The song is from the musical "Grease".
Sigh... great, now I'm gonna have that song stuck in my head all day.  |

Your definition is correct.
"... rallying... in a rendition..." tells us that he did sing the song to the crowd. Many verbs could have been used in place of "rally." |
