A couple of notes on PTX at this time: - Don't worry about the judges comments. PTX was BY FAR the judges favourites and they never really gave any negative comments. The most they did was for the 2nd performance. - Performance #2 and #3 was on the same night (later in the competition they also started doing 2 performances each week, so 7+8, 9+10, 11+12, 13+14+winner announcement and song) - Scott was the clear lead singer at the time for a couple of reasons - versatility, stamina, but most notably confidence. While Kirstin and Mitch obviously has just as much talent as lead singers they didn't have the confidence in themselves to do it yet. We get small glimpes of what's to come in the show, (in particualr performance #6 for Kirstin and #12 for Mitch) but they didn't really come into their own until much later on (especially Kirstin). - Another issue was that apparently the network was trying to avoid any mention of LGBTQIA+ (most evident in one of the late episodes where PTX visits The Tevor Project - NOT ONE WORD is mentioned about it being an LGBTQIA+ charity). I've seen comments about them not wanting Mitch to sing using his counter tenor range, but I think those are just rumours. I've never seen any confirmation of this.
This is where they "win". They were just unstoppable. And I believe that they had the right judges. They gave great advice, and didn't drag them down. And you...Mr. SaucyDad are joy to watch.
Can't wait for you to do performances of Born to be Wild, Let's Get it On, Love Locked Down and Dog Days Are Over! Keep Slappy nearby. Love your reactions❤
As far as what Shawn said about pushing the envelope.... I think we can all agree that they took the envelope, and either burned it into oblivion or took the envelope and folded it into a origami unicorn.
Nick, one of the reasons we all get along here is, YOU. You have a true love of the music and the performers "infects" us. If you weren't you, we wouldn't be us.
@@SauceyDad hope you see this. Scott has always been the unofficial leader of the group. Though they will say there is no leader. Scott always had a confidence because he had been singing in front of live audiences since childhood (other than singing with The Trio or choir at school concerts) Kirstie and Mitch were quite shy. Mitch suffered from anxiety attacks (he has gotten a LOT better) Kevin and Avi would just relay on Scott to speak for the group. (Now they are all very vocal to Scott's relief im sure) Scott has always been the go getter (helping start PTX) mover and shaker ect. This is why I keep asking you to react to the 2 ACAPELLA groups Scott co-founded! Citizen Queen and Acapop Kids!. All of PTX are AMAZING in their individual endeavors! Mitch is very popular especially because of his unique voice! I love Mitch but my faves ALWAYS are Scott and Avi.
I think was the first “contestant slap”. Every other group had an “Ohhhh, s#!*!” moment at some point during this performance. I remember watching this live at the time and I was doing some work with the TV on in the background. As soon as PTX started my head snapped up. There were a lot of good groups on the show, but this song was the first breakout performance on the show. The “skipping” they do is now a signature PTX arrangement element. IMO-the first Mitch Slap was in performance 12. He was very shy when he was young and had significant stage fright during the show so he’s not as prominent as he is now, but when they finally unleashed him on #12 it was glorious.
I agree that the First Mitch Slap was in the 12th performance, all the earlier bits were just Mitch pats 😁. But IMHO I don't think he had stage fright, in fact he blooms on stage, performing is his comfort zone. More like he had bad social anxiety off stage. The back issue was that the show production didn't want his high tenor voice highlighted. And yes, PTX decision to unleash (best description) Mitch in #12 sealed the deal.
You didn't miss anything in the judges comments at the start of the video. We just don't get to hear everything the judges have to say. For one thing, there wouldn't be time within the limits of the show for all the comments to every group. For another, some of what's said wouldn't make a lot of sense to us, the layman viewer. As for the community self policing...well, we tend to do stuff like that. We don't do a lot of toxic...but that doesn't mean we don't now HOW. Lol. Come in here and start acting a fool, and we're going to let you know, in no uncertain terms, that you are one. Fun video, as always, man. See you in the next one!
I hear that of the groups that were in the same Sing off of Ptx they are the unly one that still perform but with other name,, and also that Avi date with one of rhe girls of Sonos
I think this song was when Shawn Stockman fell in love with them. He is widely recognized as the first Pentaholic. He invited Kevin to play with Boyz II Men on the CMT Artists of the Year 2021. They have kept in touch.
SauceyDad, on your comment about the number of performances: part of the reason for this larger number was that the Sing Off increased the number of teams competing from 8 teams in Season 1 to 10 teams in Season 2 and when PTX competed there were 16 teams. The Sing Off had been notified that Season 3 would be the last season but due to the overwhelming response to PTX, the Sing Off was extended to a 4th Season which is the Season that Home Free won which again only had 10 teams competing.
Hello Saucey Dad, So good to see PTX Sing Off Number 4! This one is epic - has more of PTX vocal effects, the singing, Mitch getting to share some of his sweet tones, the arrangement, those techno sounds and the cute choreography! Representing Sonos by performing the song they wanted to do shows PTX have a heart of gold -- actually they have five hearts of gold. Sean from Boys II Men invited to Kevin to play cello with them at the CMA in 2021. These judges must know of PTX success - they have 3 Grammys!!
The original Mitch slap comes in the 12th performance when they did a number that was a judge pick. Each week there was visible improvement. IMO performances 10, 11, and 12 were their best. Love your reactions. 💕💕
Pentatonix performed 12 songs that were judged and Mrduckbear11 has them numbered for you. At the beginning of the competition only half the groups performed in each show and later on each group had to do two performances per show, so the numbers don't represent the episode number. The groups also combined in a group performance at the beginning of each show, and Scott in particular has a larger part in the group performances every week (he was PTX's designated leader on the show). In the finale episode, the three remaining groups each did one last song and also a song with one of the judges (PTX performs with Nick). There is also a group opening, a Top 10 Girls song (with Kirstie on her own) and a Top 10 Guys song. Then Mrduckbear has an 18-minute segment with the judges giving comments about the top three groups, a retrospective of each group's journey on the show, and the announcement of the winner. A week or two later, there was a Christmas special with groups from all three seasons performing in various combinations. And in season four (which was two years later) PTX came back for a special performance that is really worth watching (and if you watch the whole video you can see them coaching Home Free)
OH MY GOD, AFTER YOU FINISH THEIR 12 SING-OFF PERFORMANCES, YOU NEED TO SEE THEIR PERFORMANCE OF 'I NEED YOUR LOVE' ON SEASON 4 OF THE SING-OFF (THEY COMPETED ON S3). THEY WERE INVITED TO SING AND SHAWN AND BEN ARE BOTH THERE. IT'S AMAZING TO SEE THE IMPROVEMENT OF THEIR SOUND AND ALSO THEY SHOW A MEMBER OF THE GROUP IN A WAY THEY HADN'T WHEN THEY WERE IN THE COMPETITION
This song has a special place in my heart. Its the song I discovered them with on the sing off and I’ve never looked back all these years. I was so happy when they won. Finally a reality competition show got it right. Didn’t help their career given that their new label that they won dropped them a week after winning the show. Everything they have today is what they built up themselves. Recording videos on an iPad, sitting on the couch and throwing them up on TH-cam for the small amount of fans they got from the show. They really are a story of success. I can’t believe some people think they were handed a career. They were given the exact starting place as home free and voiceplay.
The judges didn’t like performance 2 (Love is my drug). I think I heard that after this, PTX started rehearsing with a metronome to work on their timing.
The thing you thought you missed is because of how the competition was set up, There were many groups spread over a couple weeks for the 1st performance. After it was narrowed down, they had enough time to fit both the 2nd and 3rd performance into the same week. After further narrowing it down, the two different groups of performers combined and had a weekly performance for the 4th, 5th, and 6th week. Once it was narrowed down again, there were 2 performances a day till the end. So it made it seem weird for the 2nd weeks' performance to be referenced as last weeks performance when watching the 4th one. There's also the fact that the taping cut out the harsher criticisms made during performance, and then showed some of it the following week.
Yes, thank you for pointing that out! Also, sometimes there appear to be some non sequiturs in the judges' comments--that's because of the editing. It wasn't just the harsh comments that were edited out. With so many contestants at the start, and the judges sometimes having quite a lot to say, we heard only a sampling of their comments. I've looked for a video with the uncut comments, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't exist.
Their audition song was Lady Gaga's Telephone. You can see the Trio sing it in high school concert, and the group sing the updated version at the Star Vista concert (the Aha one)
That comment of Ben's at the end was heard loud and clear by PTX. They were able to incorporate exactly what he was talking about in future performances in the Sing-Off and beyond, to great effect. I think it helped that the group was still in its infancy, and didn't have any established habits yet, good or bad. They were able to take on the comments of the judges and really shape the evolving sound and dynamics of the group.
Hey, I think Pentafries probably works for a lot of people. They're a lot of us who like both of them but still have a favorite. PTX will always be the top of the heap for me!
These have all been amazing, but I’m so excited for what’s to come. I always make that face when Nick says “we will see if you guys stay to the next round”. Lol
This one really impressed Shawn. At one point, later in the competition not sure when exactly, he made reference to them making themselves skip. There are 12 performances because some of the show's had them doing 2 songs from different genres. Don't know if you've seen 1-3 but they're interesting just to see the growth. This particular one is one of my favorites just because to me this is when they really clicked. The producers wanted to keep Mitch in the background because he's gay😡. But he gets his moment to shine. 😅It isn't in his higher ranges. I don't believe he had really worked a lot on his killer high notes much. If you're not aware they went back the next season and was kind of mentoring the acts on that season. Home Free is one of the group's they talked with. That's just the kind of peeps they are. Great reaction per usual. Love your humor. Can't wait until you see some of the other performances😃. Thanks for taking us on a journey down memory lane.
If you have the time, I strongly recommend you check out the mega-group collaborations that start off each televised episode. They feature up to a hundred singers all harmonizing and doing choreography. No other singing competition show has anything like it. If you check the comments to your reaction to PTX's first Sing-Off performance, I posted the full list there.
The first official Mitchslap is in 12: Dog Days Are Over. But there is a mini-Mitch slap in 10: Let's Get it On. (If you like Can't sleep love, you'll like Let's get it on. Mitch uses a similar vocal technique)
I really feel like ptx fans are one of the kindest most thoughtful and loyal but it comes from PTX being that way!! I think home free is the same way. Actually you said the same thing after I made this comment
The thing is, before this season, Sonos was THE non-collegiate acapella group in the US, especially in the LA area. They were already doing successful (small-venue) tours, as well as decent-selling albums/EPs-not chart toppers, but enough to support the group, which made them unusual in the genre. The show runners actually recruited them for the show. But, what they were known for was their use of looping and audio enhancing/distorting equipment in their performances. They producers told them that they would be able to do so on the show. Then, after they agreed to compete, the producers changed their minds. As a result, the group floundered and were booted after the second taping/3rd performance. They’re still together and renamed themselves ARORA. (You’ll see them in the audience cheering PTX on in later shows-Avi had started dating the blonde woman at the time!)
I remember watching this when it first aired... this performance is when I became a serious fan and haven't looked back. Crazy that I only watched 1 season of this show (by chance while living with my parents) and it just happened to be their season by chance.
I’ve always said the same thing. If the comment was part of the judge feedback on the second performance it got cut from what was aired. I didn’t remember Ben make the “abandoned” comment in any other videos.
I'm not a fan of any of the other a capella groups like I am with Home Free, however I recognise the level of talent and appreciate it. Like you I am heavily into rock/metal and a little over a year ago HF smacked me upside the head and took over. But I happily support your videos, the time you take to do them. Thumbs up from me!!
From what I've seen, the biggest and best "communities" on TH-cam seem to be the pentaholics, home frys, HoG and CREEKSQUAD 🤷♀️ based on the love, support and true overall acceptance that I've seen
Saucey Dad: If you, judges, say a word, I gonna travel to the past and… Shawn Stockman: Cool down, SD. I’ve been in the future, THEY CAME TO SAVE A CAPELLA! Honey in my ears)))
Boys II Men invited Kevin to perform with them with his cello this last year. That definitely shows that respect for him as a performer. 🙂 Just wanted to say that there are a lot of fans that overlap with Pentatonix and Home Free, so we usually get along pretty well. I have seen Pentatonix in concert 4x, and Home Free in concert at least 3x. Home Free still plays small enough venues that I can see them in my hometown.😃
@@banf7425 I think they put it back in so it would make sense when Kirstin says they should take what Ben said to heart. Without that clip, it wouldn't be obvious what she was referring to.
It was super confusing, since they only showed part of the feedback from Ben on the 2nd week, then on this week showed more of it-all bad! 🙄 I think that was the only “bad” review from the judges. Great review and happy you’re sounding better! Good luck at the dentist!!
There really are a shit load of PTX and HF reactions out there but Saucey you take it to a whole nother level I love your channel and want to thank u 4 wat u do✌❣
There is main twelve. Each one is so fun. Each week the judges decide which group gets eliminated until 12. Then the voting was opened up to America So even tho there are a few other performances. The 12th. is the important one. I suggest you watch the final announcement and then watch when PTX returns the next year as guest stars. of season 4. Season 4 is when home free won and you can see them getting advice from PTX. I’m being confusing. Somebody help:me say this better. Aagh
I believe what you missed was PTX performing Kesha's "Your love is my drug" during episode 4. Everyone sang two songs - PTX sang the Kesha song and the Joplin song on episode 4. The judges really weren't as keen on that performance and that's what they were referring to in the comments. Wiki has all the episodes laid out showing who sang what on the different episodes: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sing-Off_(season_3)
Plus they also had the opening numbers with the rest of the groups. I think Saucey Dad should react to the video for all of the opening songs from season 3.
I think most negative comments are only there to try to make it less obvious who is going to win the competition. Some of the funniest parts of these for me is Nick saying we will find out if they will advance, directly after the judges talk about how great they are
Sonos was fabulous, but because they relied on electronic effects to give them a fuller sound, they sounded weak in an acapella setting. They changed their name to Arora and put out an album, but I haven't seen any news from them for about four years.
Interestingly, they lost their launching pad. Sony screwed them on the contract. They then RE-launched themselves via TH-cam, making such a splash that they succeeded on their own.
So the show producers puffed up any drama into a BIG DEAL, because they thought that controversy drew views. You'll see more of it later on: Kevin drama, Kirstie drama. And there was drama that was all backstage, but that made things more tense: there's a spot before one of the performances where the group goes to a youth LGBT support organization, and the producers kept the nature of the organization wa-a-ay in the background, and cut out Mitch's remarks about being a gay teen, so it comes across like his high-pitched speaking voice was the whole problem.
A couple of notes on PTX at this time:
- Don't worry about the judges comments. PTX was BY FAR the judges favourites and they never really gave any negative comments. The most they did was for the 2nd performance.
- Performance #2 and #3 was on the same night (later in the competition they also started doing 2 performances each week, so 7+8, 9+10, 11+12, 13+14+winner announcement and song)
- Scott was the clear lead singer at the time for a couple of reasons - versatility, stamina, but most notably confidence. While Kirstin and Mitch obviously has just as much talent as lead singers they didn't have the confidence in themselves to do it yet. We get small glimpes of what's to come in the show, (in particualr performance #6 for Kirstin and #12 for Mitch) but they didn't really come into their own until much later on (especially Kirstin).
- Another issue was that apparently the network was trying to avoid any mention of LGBTQIA+ (most evident in one of the late episodes where PTX visits The Tevor Project - NOT ONE WORD is mentioned about it being an LGBTQIA+ charity). I've seen comments about them not wanting Mitch to sing using his counter tenor range, but I think those are just rumours. I've never seen any confirmation of this.
This is where they "win". They were just unstoppable. And I believe that they had the right judges. They gave great advice, and didn't drag them down. And you...Mr. SaucyDad are joy to watch.
Can't wait for you to do performances of Born to be Wild, Let's Get it On, Love Locked Down and Dog Days Are Over! Keep Slappy nearby. Love your reactions❤
As far as what Shawn said about pushing the envelope....
I think we can all agree that they took the envelope, and either burned it into oblivion or took the envelope and folded it into a origami unicorn.
Nick, one of the reasons we all get along here is, YOU. You have a true love of the music and the performers "infects" us. If you weren't you, we wouldn't be us.
That’s very sweet Carla thank you for that ❤️
@@SauceyDad hope you see this. Scott has always been the unofficial leader of the group. Though they will say there is no leader.

Citizen Queen and Acapop Kids!. All of PTX are AMAZING in their individual endeavors! Mitch is very popular especially because of his unique voice! I love Mitch but my faves ALWAYS are Scott and Avi.
I think was the first “contestant slap”. Every other group had an “Ohhhh, s#!*!” moment at some point during this performance.

I always said that it was clear in this performance when everyone else knew they were competing for second place🤣 even when it first aired😘

For one thing, there wouldn't be time within the limits of the show for all the comments to every group. For another, some of what's said wouldn't make a lot of sense to us, the layman viewer.

Fun video, as always, man. See you in the next one!
When you are done with the sing off videos. You have to watch Mitch & Scott reacting to their performances on sing off. It's hilarious
PTX in 2011: “We want to be just like Sonos.”
Everyone in 2022: “Who’s Sonos?”
Haha truth!!
I hear that of the groups that were in the same Sing off of Ptx they are the unly one that still perform but with other name,, and also that Avi date with one of rhe girls of Sonos
This was their performance that made me a fan.
I think this song was when Shawn Stockman fell in love with them. He is widely recognized as the first Pentaholic. He invited Kevin to play with Boyz II Men on the CMT Artists of the Year 2021. They have kept in touch.
I am so glad you are doing the sing off performances.
SauceyDad, on your comment about the number of performances: part of the reason for this larger number was that the Sing Off increased the number of teams competing from 8 teams in Season 1 to 10 teams in Season 2 and when PTX competed there were 16 teams. The Sing Off had been notified that Season 3 would be the last season but due to the overwhelming response to PTX, the Sing Off was extended to a 4th Season which is the Season that Home Free won which again only had 10 teams competing.

Never seen anything like PTX, either. Great reaction. The one judge was probably just trying to keep them on their toes.
The original Mitch slap comes in the 12th performance when they did a number that was a judge pick. Each week there was visible improvement. IMO performances 10, 11, and 12 were their best. Love your reactions. 💕💕
10, 11 and 12 was the point where it basically became a PTX concert with some other acts because they were the obvious winners.
Pentatonix performed 12 songs that were judged and Mrduckbear11 has them numbered for you. At the beginning of the competition only half the groups performed in each show and later on each group had to do two performances per show, so the numbers don't represent the episode number.

A week or two later, there was a Christmas special with groups from all three seasons performing in various combinations. And in season four (which was two years later) PTX came back for a special performance that is really worth watching (and if you watch the whole video you can see them coaching Home Free)
I've watched this sing-off so many times. It's hard not to.
OH MY GOD, AFTER YOU FINISH THEIR 12 SING-OFF PERFORMANCES, YOU NEED TO SEE THEIR PERFORMANCE OF 'I NEED YOUR LOVE' ON SEASON 4 OF THE SING-OFF (THEY COMPETED ON S3). THEY WERE INVITED TO SING AND SHAWN AND BEN ARE BOTH THERE. IT'S AMAZING TO SEE THE IMPROVEMENT OF THEIR SOUND AND ALSO THEY SHOW A MEMBER OF THE GROUP IN A WAY THEY HADN'T WHEN THEY WERE IN THE COMPETITION
Yes! I get kind of emotional seeing that one!
One of my favourites
And it gets so little attention.
It's amazing what they did in 2 days. Arranging the song, learning the song and the dance moves, etc - mindblowing.
This song has a special place in my heart. Its the song I discovered them with on the sing off and I’ve never looked back all these years. I was so happy when they won. Finally a reality competition show got it right. Didn’t help their career given that their new label that they won dropped them a week after winning the show.

The judges didn’t like performance 2 (Love is my drug). I think I heard that after this, PTX started rehearsing with a metronome to work on their timing.
Your desire to see what these judges think of PTX now is the very reason reactors (like yourself) are so popular right now.
The thing you thought you missed is because of how the competition was set up, There were many groups spread over a couple weeks for the 1st performance. After it was narrowed down, they had enough time to fit both the 2nd and 3rd performance into the same week.

I've looked for a video with the uncut comments, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't exist.
This is the performance that sent them light years ahead of the competition. I knew from this night they would be the winner.
Thanks SauceyDad!!! Great reaction.
Their audition song was Lady Gaga's Telephone. You can see the Trio sing it in high school concert, and the group sing the updated version at the Star Vista concert (the Aha one)
Or a couple of times in their first year or 2 after the Sing Off with Avi.
That comment of Ben's at the end was heard loud and clear by PTX. They were able to incorporate exactly what he was talking about in future performances in the Sing-Off and beyond, to great effect.

These have all been amazing, but I’m so excited for what’s to come. I always make that face when Nick says “we will see if you guys stay to the next round”. Lol
Here we go. PTX's 3rd best Sing Off performance. Can't wait to see your face drop.....
So excited you are doing the Sing Off for PTX! Thank you!!!!
They did 2 performances each night.
This is the one that made me say damn!!!
This one really impressed Shawn. At one point, later in the competition not sure when exactly, he made reference to them making themselves skip.

Great reaction per usual. Love your humor.
Can't wait until you see some of the other performances😃. Thanks for taking us on a journey down memory lane.
This performance to me was where they really clicked and put everything together as a group. It just keeps getting better from here on out.
I’m 100% a SAUCEY PENTAFRY ❤️🙌🙌
I agree 100% I have always wanted to know what the judges think of them and their 10 years of music. 💓
We love you too! Hopefully saucy mom does not get sick stay well and safe!

They producers told them that they would be able to do so on the show. Then, after they agreed to compete, the producers changed their minds. As a result, the group floundered and were booted after the second taping/3rd performance. They’re still together and renamed themselves ARORA. (You’ll see them in the audience cheering PTX on in later shows-Avi had started dating the blonde woman at the time!)
Great info. I knew nothing about Sonos
I remember watching this when it first aired... this performance is when I became a serious fan and haven't looked back. Crazy that I only watched 1 season of this show (by chance while living with my parents) and it just happened to be their season by chance.
I’ve always said the same thing. If the comment was part of the judge feedback on the second performance it got cut from what was aired. I didn’t remember Ben make the “abandoned” comment in any other videos.
I’ve strayed away from a few of my reactor channels, but cannot stay away from Saucey Fam!
They are just getting warmed up 😊
I'm not a fan of any of the other a capella groups like I am with Home Free, however I recognise the level of talent and appreciate it. Like you I am heavily into rock/metal and a little over a year ago HF smacked me upside the head and took over. But I happily support your videos, the time you take to do them. Thumbs up from me!!
From what I've seen, the biggest and best "communities" on TH-cam seem to be the pentaholics, home frys, HoG and CREEKSQUAD 🤷♀️ based on the love, support and true overall acceptance that I've seen
Way cool to see your numbers up from 14000 to 21000 subscribers within 2 months. That is awesome growth. But you deserve every bit of it.
I prefer Pentatonix while my wife is more of a Home Free fan. We attended a Home Free performance two weeks ago and we loved it.
Goes for Voiceplay and Peter Hollens, also.
This channel is great man ...love watching this journey! Grats on 14k time for 20K
No because you remember in the '90s medley they used Auto-Tune for Cher and I'm pretty sure that's why they couldn't get it together this time.
"Meat and potatoes" 😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Saucey Dad: If you, judges, say a word, I gonna travel to the past and…
Shawn Stockman: Cool down, SD. I’ve been in the future, THEY CAME TO SAVE A CAPELLA!
Honey in my ears)))
Loving your reactions SD. Thanks for always bringing the fun 😊
Boys II Men invited Kevin to perform with them with his cello this last year. That definitely shows that respect for him as a performer. 🙂
Just wanted to say that there are a lot of fans that overlap with Pentatonix and Home Free, so we usually get along pretty well. I have seen Pentatonix in concert 4x, and Home Free in concert at least 3x. Home Free still plays small enough venues that I can see them in my hometown.😃
You didn't miss anything. That bit where Ben Folds told them that "the appeal of the song was abandoned" was not aired the week he said it.
Oh! Thnx! I’ve never seen these and was also very confused 🤛
@@banf7425 I think they put it back in so it would make sense when Kirstin says they should take what Ben said to heart. Without that clip, it wouldn't be obvious what she was referring to.
It was super confusing, since they only showed part of the feedback from Ben on the 2nd week, then on this week showed more of it-all bad! 🙄 I think that was the only “bad” review from the judges. Great review and happy you’re sounding better! Good luck at the dentist!!
Let's get it on will floor you
There really are a shit load of PTX and HF reactions out there but Saucey you take it to a whole nother level I love your channel and want to thank u 4 wat u do✌❣
This is the point when I just KNEW they had won!!
Your very appreciated!!!
There is main twelve. Each one is so fun. Each week the judges decide which group gets eliminated until 12. Then the voting was opened up to America
So even tho there are a few other performances. The 12th. is the important one. I suggest you watch the final announcement and then watch when PTX returns the next year as guest stars. of season 4. Season 4 is when home free won and you can see them getting advice from PTX.
I’m being confusing. Somebody help:me say this better. Aagh
I believe what you missed was PTX performing Kesha's "Your love is my drug" during episode 4. Everyone sang two songs - PTX sang the Kesha song and the Joplin song on episode 4. The judges really weren't as keen on that performance and that's what they were referring to in the comments. Wiki has all the episodes laid out showing who sang what on the different episodes: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sing-Off_(season_3)
There are more. React to the Christmas appearances and the finale of season 4, plus they performed with Nick Leshay
Yes, please!!
They do more than 1 song a night later in the season
Plus they also had the opening numbers with the rest of the groups. I think Saucey Dad should react to the video for all of the opening songs from season 3.
@@heidifruchtl354 they also did other sing off episodes after they won
I think most negative comments are only there to try to make it less obvious who is going to win the competition. Some of the funniest parts of these for me is Nick saying we will find out if they will advance, directly after the judges talk about how great they are
Sonos was fabulous, but because they relied on electronic effects to give them a fuller sound, they sounded weak in an acapella setting. They changed their name to Arora and put out an album, but I haven't seen any news from them for about four years.
Ben Folds, alone or with his band, the Ben Folds 5, might be worth reacting to.
Has anyone seen any recent interviews from the judges? I check every so often but never have found any
Great reaction....again. The show starts out with one performance, then they start doing 2 each night. So, you probably missed one.
in just two days too
This was where the separation from the other groups began.
Interestingly, they lost their launching pad. Sony screwed them on the contract. They then RE-launched themselves via TH-cam, making such a splash that they succeeded on their own.
I think Avi was dating the lead singer from Sonos at the time too!
Have you ever listent to band Home Free?
So the show producers puffed up any drama into a BIG DEAL, because they thought that controversy drew views. You'll see more of it later on: Kevin drama, Kirstie drama. And there was drama that was all backstage, but that made things more tense: there's a spot before one of the performances where the group goes to a youth LGBT support organization, and the producers kept the nature of the organization wa-a-ay in the background, and cut out Mitch's remarks about being a gay teen, so it comes across like his high-pitched speaking voice was the whole problem.
Thats 2nd performance comments
They did not want Mitch to be "the star" of any of their videos just because of his sexual preference. Scott had not "come out" yet.
