This is not only the best I've ever heard acappella sound and look, but may be one of the most moving pieces of music I've encountered. Sheer genius, bravo bravo bravo.
Still haven't seen or heard a set that was this well thought out. Big props to Hannah Tobias and Matt Goldstein who arranged the music, and to all of the performers. Everyone had such great stage presence. I felt like I was right in the middle of a musical battlefield. Also HUGE props to that blonde singer in the black dress. Their energy was electric the entire time!
College a capella is a field populated with tons of groups of decent singers who get together and sing pop music because it sounds good. And then... there are groups like this. This set was thoughtful, emotive, and deeply passionate. Very well done.
We actually just finished recording our first album (which will feature all of the songs from this set, as well as a bunch of others!) and will be releasing it in March!
Matt and Hannah - these are some of the best arrangements I've ever heard done for a cappella. Major props to the two of you. Keep up the incredible work. I especially loved the constant use of major 7ths, add 2, and add 4 chords. Not overdone, but used to perfection. The subtle moving lines that occur throughout "Blood I Bled" really speak out and are genius. It's so hard for me to focus on one or two specific things - I have a list of dozens of things that I loved about the arrangements, but I don't want to drone on and on. The rest of the group - you guys did an amazing job. Being able to keep an audience engaged is so crucial to success in the music industry, and you did it incredibly well. Your harmonies are tight and movements are sharp. Incredible performance.
Not going to lie, I was watching sing it on and looked the Vassar Devils up because I thought the guy in the beanie is cute as heck but now I'm so I'm love with the whole group. I wish I could have the incredible talent and dedication that all these wonderful individuals have. thank you for showing me that even though pentatonix is shit a capella can be insanely amazing.
sono seriamente sorpresa dalla vostra bravura:le vostre voci sono disumane, siete perfettamente coordinati nei movimenti e la vostra performance è la migliore che io abbia mai visto in vita mia.Complimenti siete dei geni, continuate così
Dani Dones reminds me of Daveed Diggs from "Hamilton" (they even have the same initials). This performance gave me chills AND moved me to tears during these 15 minutes - you guys are aca-mazing! 😍🎤
I come back to this every now and then to remind myself of the pure talent and creativity behind this set! Unlike anything I've heard before or since! Wow🙏🏾🙌🏾💕
MY HEART. This is the most INCREDIBLE Acapella group I've ever seen in my entire life. I need to sing with them omg 😭. Goosebumps and tears in my eyes .
What a brilliant way of moving people, spreading emotions. Just using your passion, talent on arranging and last but not least.... all your unbeliavable voices! You surely are the new medium for transferring emotions! You can make anyone cry or laugh on the snap of your fingers. Absolutely amazing! MY biggest respect to you guys. Please keep this running and share it to the people. Continue!
Whoops. Nearly forgot something. Huge regards to the sound guy who mixed the sound for you on this one! You should handcuff this guy and hump him with you! Thanks man! Phantastic job!
It’s divine that some people appear like angels to have been put on this earth for the express purpose to entertain us with their other worldly talents and abilities. Such splendor in their ability to captivate and mesmerize all who watch. These angels are god’s gift to the world.
This was so good! I first heard of you guys in the show "Sing it On" and I just decided to actually listen to you guys and im blown away by the talent. I'm glad we can have talented people like you guys in the world!
this is absolutely incredible. i'm floored by the level of sheer talent, paired with incredible arrangements and backed with stunning musicianship. thank you for this performance.
Awesome job guys. It was awesome to perform on the same stage that night, and you crushed it. I don't listen to my own group's recordings as much as I listen to this!
Just showed this to one of my best a cappella friends and watched it for the hundredth time and I'm wondering what planet those 8 dislikers are on... fix yourselves.
Loved your performance. Brilliant arrangements. Although the Alive soloist could have been someone else. He didn't fit in with his throaty voice. I'd rather see him in a metal or rock song.

I fell out of my chair. The first line of their set from last year. Genius.
The arrangement of Privacy BLOWS MY MIND!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Reese!! :D
The Vassar Devils are y'all ever gonna do a professional recording of it?
We actually just finished recording our first album (which will feature all of the songs from this set, as well as a bunch of others!) and will be releasing it in March!
You bet!
When??? I checked today :( I'm obsessed!
The arrangement of Privacy was ethereal, especially with how well Matt's voice fit into the arrangement.
I can't get over that final chord! I've watched this video at least 100 times and I get goosebumps every single time!!!
That #11 in the last chord though... absolutely insane pulling that off live!

The homages to your 2015 Finals set were brilliant and nostalgic. Fantastic work, Devils.

Are you kidding me? This is the best thing I've ever heard.
Matt Goldstein 😍😍😍😘

Also that last chord of I'm Alive my goodness
This deserves so many more views than it has, such a talented group!! Mind blown.
I keep coming back to this, and I'm ok with that.
This is so incredible. I rewatch this video nearly weekly. The harmony and blend that you achieve is phenomenal.
this is absolutely incredible. i'm floored by the level of sheer talent, paired with incredible arrangements and backed with stunning musicianship. thank you for this performance.
constant goosebumps!!!!
I'm struggling to fathom an a cappella competition this set wouldn't win.
AHHH that was awesome!!!
Love the arrangement!! :)
This never gets old, gives me chills every time
Awesome job guys. It was awesome to perform on the same stage that night, and you crushed it. I don't listen to my own group's recordings as much as I listen to this!
Nice job guys!
Amazing.

Just discovered you guys via another show. This is just...beauty, artistry, music. Everything. Thank you.
Really fantastic set! I always give bonus points to videos with good audio quality as well :)
Wow amazing!!!
Holy crap!! That was pretty spectacular! I feel this shall become a daily watch!

Just showed this to one of my best a cappella friends and watched it for the hundredth time and I'm wondering what planet those 8 dislikers are on... fix yourselves.
holy god
oh my
Werk. So moved by this performance- love your work!
Thank you so much Lizzie! We are so excited that Gestalt is going to be singing some of our music - can't wait to hear!
Great!!
wow !!
I can see why. Not JUST beautifully sung.....but moving.
that's just perfekt ... i don't know what to say
I swear! Holy shit!!!
I loved Alive
♥️♥️♥️
13:13 putting the same melodies as your cover of Iscariot is rly cool!
This still hits so fucking hard.
wow
omg
god.
damn
Interesting to see the strong male participation in this group at an historically female college!
The alive soloist kinda sounds like Scott from pentatonix 😭😍
someone please tell me the name of the singer at 11:40?! his voice gave me pure goosebumps. the soul in his voice is ethereal!
The rising tenor line in the background? That would be Joseph Szymanski!
Who let their father on stage to beat box
For a hot second I thought the first girl was Milly Bobby Brown 😂
Loved your performance. Brilliant arrangements. Although the Alive soloist could have been someone else. He didn't fit in with his throaty voice. I'd rather see him in a metal or rock song.
As an alum of the school, you might want tell some of the ladies they forgot most of their outfits in their dorm rooms. Nice performance though.
Amazing.
