    We are ashamed to say that we are not too familiar with John Lennon nor The Beatles. However, the song, "Imagine" has lived within us since we were in the womb, and we just needed a reminder of what it sounded like. As per usual, Pentatonix created magic with this one... what's next?

    Mitch and Scott share LGBTQ+, Scott and Avi share Man, Avi and Kevin share American, Kevin and Kirstie share Christian.They also are individuals - Avi is Jewish, Kevin is Black, Kirstie is Latina. Regardless, we are all human. The ending, before Kevin's verse, is called their "Wall of Sound."

    The first card was Mitch as LGBTQ, he then passed that card to Scott who is also LGBTQ, and also Man, he passed the common identity of Man to Avi, who also identifies as Jewish and American, who passes American to Kevin, who also identifies as Black and Christian, he then passes Christian to Kirsti who idenfies as Christian, Latino, and a Woman.

    Kevin is often overlooked as a vocalist, because of his usual role in the group, but he is a talented musician, and a phenomenal vocalist in addition to being a percussive phenom. He is a powerhouse, and his solo projects are nothing to sleep on. His version of "Down" definitely needs you to watch it. You will be blown away. Bring extra socks!!

      what's amazing about Kevin is that he started learning to sing AFTER joining Pentatonix. He didn't think of himself as a singer but because of the other members, he decided to take lessons and grow his ability to sing. The man can learn to do anything but that's something I really respect is that he had the courage/confidence to learn how to sing and sing with 4 VERY accomplished singers.

    The words showing on the card while it was passed is what they have in common and share, the words they flipped and showed without passing are identities they have that they don’t share. I believe this was supposed to show how they have similarities, but are still very different from each other and despite their differences they’re all human and can come together harmoniously…..like we all should

    Music is a memory 'retrieval' cue. It can even reach through dementia, it has such immense holographic properties of affecting many different types of memory storage capabilities. From personal experience, emotions, physical location, etc that connect to when and how the piece was responded to. I saw wonderful use of it by a master musician I met, Tony Piazza, who applied it to aid mental institution patients.

      THIS. Nobody else (reactor or commenter) I saw seems to talk about this. That part always gets me so much. It's about the beauty born from being together. But at the same time every one of them retains their individuality and you can distinguish each contribution.
      At the beginning it sounds almost painful to me, as if they were trying to make themselves heard separately and too each other. But then they merge in a beautiful wall of sound.
      I feel like so many people miss this part, it's great to see it discussed.

      Like around 20:58
      It's those long parts where every second is continuously covered in a smooth stream of harmonies.
      Usually there are "gaps" in sound (they only sing the bass, or there is a high-pitched solo, or there are pauses). Then they all harmonize together you get hit by a "solid wall" of sound (all sounds, no gaps, no pauses xD)

    You are so right about "perspective". And, there is no better expression of that perspective than the one Carl Sagan gave after seeing the image of Earth from the Voyager spacecraft. It goes:
    “Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
    The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.
    Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.
    The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.
    It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”
    ― Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space

    I appreciate how thoughtful you two are. You pointed out a couple of things about the song and the PTX video that I hadn't thought of before. BTW, this is one of the PTX videos where the visuals can detract from full appreciation of the music at first hearing so that may be why you didn't feel the chills until the second hearing. Those chills happen to people who have an emotional response to music when something in the music surprises them. That triggers a physical response similar to what your caveman ancestors felt when suddenly hearing a possibly dangerous animal coming through the forest.

    You are the first reactors I saw commenting about the meaning behind the "wall of sound". THANK YOU for this.
    I feel like so many people gloss over it.
    It's about the beauty born from working together.
    But this beauty comes from a struggle. The struggle to be your individual self, while also letting the others shine and merge their way and their lives with yours.
    At first their voices are separate, and it feels like they are tying to "one-up" each other. But then they merge in this beautiful wall of sound, which is amazing as a whole, but allows you to recognize each contributions.
    This song is not about discarding "labels" (what makes you unique). It's about accepting other people's uniqueness and understand that our "common label" (human) allows us to understand each other and be as one in the end.

    To really experience Kevin's talent, watch his cover of Down. It is truly amazing. For something completely different, I recommend Hip Hop goes Broadway 1 and 2 (or something like that) by Superfruit. Superfruit is the duo of Scott and Mitch. There is nothing to research, and won't be any deep meaningful conversation after, it's just plain funny. As far as Pentatonix, I suggest The Wizard of Ahhhs, with Todric Hall. Watching the movie beforehand as a refresher wouldn't hurt.

    Thanks for another great reaction! I loved hearing John Lennon live. My take on the group passing the cards is not just each individual sharing their personal identities, but also highlighting those parts of themselves that they share with one another- how they are connected one to another and therefore, one to the whole, ending in the ultimate connection between us all.

    Freddie's last song th-cam.com/video/_CHxldQhQCA/w-d-xo.html Shortly the story of this song, for everyone that doesn’t know:
    Freddie was very ill whilst making this song, he only had 3 takes (that’s what I have heard) to do this entire song, he was doing it, but he got really tired and he said he will be back to finish the song. He never came back... he had passed away November 24th 1991. At the time they only had about half of the song finished by the time he died so that is why they put the guitar solo and that’s why Brian had to finish the rest of the song. His last vocal word was “love”. He never got to finish this song... Only this man could sing like that whilst dying from a horrible disease. What a legend.

    I love this one. I like your point that Kevin singing showed his multifaceted musical skills, proving we can have multiple identities in that way, too. Kevin pretty much sings whenever there is no beatboxing going on, (and when the harmony is in five parts it takes things to another level). There have actually been the occasional times that the others take up the beat so Kevin can sing, but none of them beatbox like Kevin, lol. My favorite part of the diverse identities represented by the group, was the demonstration that they also each shared an identity with their neighbor. Mitch passed Scott LGBTQ+ because they share that identity, then Scott shared "Man" with Avi, Avi shared "American" with Kevin, and Kevin shared "Christian" with Kirstie. Anyway, the whole thing was beautifully thought out, as you said. Another fantastic reaction, guys, seriously! You're great reactors.

    Fantastic reaction, as always! Thank you guys! From Wikipedia: The term sniglet was conceived by comedian Rich Hall during his tenure on the 1980s HBO comedy series Not Necessarily the News. Each monthly episode featured a regular segment on sniglets, which Hall described as "any word that doesn't appear in the dictionary, but should". One example is Aquadextrous: possessing the ability to turn the bathtub faucet with the toes. These were (and still are) so funny. You guys can make up a sniglet for songs you forget the melody to but live inside you. Or folks might suggest them in the comments :)
