    Hi, Barry. I’m from the U.S. and have been enjoying your TH-cam channel and your lovely reactions for a year now. My husband and I hope to visit Ireland for our first time (once COVID ever settles down) since we both have some Irish in our lineage. Where about in Ireland are you? It would be an honor to meet you sometime and enjoy a Guinness or a beverage of your choice.
    I’m so glad you enjoy and appreciate Pentatonix. I discovered them about a year ago as well and I’m a full-fledged Pentaholic. I don’t know if you’ve ever listened to their version of “My Favorite Things”. If not, I’d love to see your reaction. I just saw the video myself today, and I love their spin on it. A slightly darker, almost “steampunk” vibe. They made an old song feel new and modern, as always. I find that I prefer most of their covers to the originals.
    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Asheville, North Carolina, USA. 🎄

    This one always struck me as the epitome of Diana Wynne Jones' Chrestomanci Chronicles, where all worlds exist on a continuum from science-based mundane to pure faerie magic and you can step between them if you have the skills/talent. So Hundred Acre Wood, Neverland, Sherwood Forest, Halloween Town, Prydain, Narnia, Wonderland, and Ancient Greece could all be visited in the same day (think I caught all of these references in the song, but might be stretching/misnaming some). My first thought hearing it was, "Do you want the Wild Hunt? 'Cause that's how you call the Wild Hunt!"

    Way, way back in 1993 the movie; "The nightmare before Christmas", was released. A chap by the name of Cosmo Sheldrake wrote a signature piece for it, which PTX actually covered, "Making Christmas" (Halloween Town takes over Christmas..., once, poorly.). There was a sequel in the works that was canceled, instead it went straight into Graphic Novel format. Cosmo had written a song for that one too... "Come Along". PTX just had to cover this as well. You should check out their cover of "Making Christmas", they switch between "Bright, Happy, sparkly" Christmas and "Dark, spooky, gloomy" Halloween-mas.
    Peace, Love and Light Barry!

As someone else commented a few minutes ago, Danny Elfman was the composer of all the music in "Nightmare Before Christmas." (And PTX cover of Making Christmas is in my top 20 pieces of music, which is a free-floating list which is at this time almost entirely PTX, Superfruit and Todrick Hall.)

    Hi Barry! I don't want to be the reason you have an "episode"!!! Lol! So I won't tell you it's not a Christmas song! But that wouldn't have kept Ptx from putting it on a Christmas album! Still, they did not. As far as I can tell, the only album this is on is the Japan 5th Anniversary Greatest Hits album that was only released in Japan. I have it because I saw it on Ebay from a Japanese seller! It's a wonderful album, with other songs on it that are not on any of their other albums. (Shallow, Can You Feel the Love Tonight, Pretender & Waving through a Window. 23 songs in all. Regardless, I love this song! They performed it on their 2019 world tour. The stage performance was really clever, creative snd fun!!! Great reaction Barry!! Love you!!! XO 💜

    This is such a fun video, and they've done a fantabulous job with this song. I went hunting for the original to see how the creator of the song arranged it and .... well, you know how a popular comment is that Pentatonix "upgrades" the songs they cover? Oh, man. The original is downright grim, which is so weird, when you compare it to the tenor of the lyrics, which are extremely whimsical. But Cosmo's version starts with a VERY lengthy (40 seconds) instrumental beginning, heavy on discords and percussion. It sounded like something Cecil B. DeMille would have crafted for an epic costume drama. Then all that just goes away and Cosmo starts singing (at about half the speed of PTX version). It's just ... dour.
    Frankly, I can't even conceive of the leaps of the imagination that would have PTX decide to cover it - and in such a happy, cheerful way. The contrast is just bizarre.
    If you look through the comments on the PTX cover, you'll find that Cosmo posted a "thank you" for covering his song.

      Thank you for this review. I’ve long since learned that there is ABSOLUTELY NO POINT in listening to the original (if I don’t already know it). PTX make the song far superior and it’s just depressing to listen to the original.
      Case in point: Gold by Kiarra! I was absolutely gobsmaked at how ‘wrong’ it sounded in comparison to PTX’s laidback but perfectly delivered version. I don’t do it anymore. 😏
      In a similar vein. I actually thought of their ‘I Just Called To Say I Love You’ as a cover. A good cover. Just like ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ was. When they cover the classics they cover them really well. When they cover others, it’s just a perfect upgrade.
      Thank you again for bearing the burden of listening to the original. 🤗

      @@caroleceres Thanks! Yeah, I went looking for "Gold," too, as I'd never heard it before. It didn't bother me as much as "Come Along" did, but yes, the 𝒇𝒆𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 of the song is way different. But with that one, most of the attention belongs to Mitch's incredible control of his voice.

    Hi Barry!
    Yes, it's so pretty it does sound almost like a Christmas song with the style & happy feel. I don't remember what album they put it on, though.
    I still keep wondering what it's from, because the lyrics are all about an island getaway & make references to fantasy stories such as Winnie the Pooh (heffalumps is what they called elephants), Alice in Wonderland, Homer's Oddysey (& others) with the reference to needing to close your ears & tie yourself up because of sirens. A few other lines sound familiar too but not sure where from, maybe Peter Pan? (It's been over 40 years since I read that, cause I was about 9 I think.😄) This is definitely one of those that I want an explanation of the lyrics.

      it's got phrases in it from the Walrus and the Carpenter, by Lewis Carrol, and mentions Heffalumps, from Winnie the pooh. I think Cosmo Sheldrake must have been randomly pulling books off his kid's bookshelf!

    Surprise, I bet you thought I was done for the night? HA, nope! Well, doesn’t this one have everything and then some? I am back harping on about Matt for 5 hours (okay 30 seconds) but I still say he has settled in and has just gotten better and better. He and Kevin just drive the songs along, I mean honestly I LOVE them both. Kirsten and her fast vibrato cuts through the rest of them and it is SO great! You can only imagine since Terri loves Freddie Mercury how much she would love a fast vibrato? YES! The other 2 were okay, just joking y’all don’t come for me!! We tend to go on and on about Mitch and Scott because they are that great so I thought I would shine my tiny Terri spotlight on the other three for a comment. Fantastical! ❤️

    There are literary references including Alice in Wonderland, but invocatve of a dreamscape.
