Pentatonix is grateful and humble. They worked their butts off to make themselves what they are instead of accepting defeat when Epic records dropped them a week after their winning the Sing Off. They deserve their fame and handle it very well.
Wow, that’s unbelievable I didn’t know that!!
@@SauceyDad Epic didn't think A capella music would sell. They had taken their prize money, moved in next-door to each other in the same apartment complex, and spent 400 bucks to make the video for Daft Punk in Avi & Kevin's closet. And then won a Grammy. Subsequently were hired back by the top label of Epic, RCA. They have won two other Grammys since, one for Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy and one for an A capella recording of Jolene with Dolly Parton. All three videos should be on your list.
what I have never understood is why epic made the contract with the TV show in the first place. If they knew they didn’t want to support a cappella, why support a cappella on TV? I don’t get it.
@@ClaireBarn exactly! And what about the winners of the first two seasons?
@@ClaireBarn I think they expected that all a capella groups would only sell in smaller amounts to hardcore a capella fans, only need promoting in places where a capella usually performs, & a capella groups would mostly just be making sound recordings instead of full on video production. In other words a very low cost investment of money & manpower up front which would then make some profit but nothing compared to "real" singing groups in the pop, rock or country realms. The winners of the 1st 2 seasons pretty much still fit that. Then PTX wins & immediately starts talking about how their targeted audience is basically the whole world of pop music. They want to do real tours. Their talent & goal is innovation, bringing a capella to the masses instead of just choir nerds like themselves. For them to do the kind of music they wanted they were going to need much more than the company had thought up front. The company hadn't planned on risking that kind of investment on an a cappella group.
One thing I have noticed about Pentaholics is we are patient and understanding and love to share the vast knowledge of PTX. There is a reason we gravitate to this group. Aside from being incredibly talented they genuinely care about their fans. They also have a way of bringing out emotions with their music. You have definitely gone down the PTX rabbit hole. We welcome you.
It's seeing and listening to the awe & shock of a newbie reviewer. For the first time Soo many times. Love it.
No matter what, if a greenie has seen more than 1 PTX vid they're down the rabbit hole. It'll just be a matter of the subs/fan base saying "HEY REACT MORE PLEASE!!!" or genuine enjoyment and curiosity. SauceyDad is both.
Absolutely love your reactions, find myself coming back as much for PTX as your responses. Especially Mitch and now this WALL of sound we all run into when they blend the sounds just Solid!!!
“Every time Kevin opens his mouth, it’s like heaven falls out.” That is the absolute best compliment I’ve ever heard someone give my brother.😭💜
PTX worked their butts off and while they started on the Sing Off, they used TH-cam really to launch their career. They are very humble, and fun. 😀
The reason Pentatonix has such a large following, in my humble opinion, is their diversity. They sound great, look great but it's their ability to draw in a wider group of people who can relate to them that makes them so popular in the a capella world. Daft Punk or 90s Dance Medley next please 👍🏻💕
You won't need the tissues for these two - or Bohemian Rhapsody which is also on my suggestion list.
And their theatre background makes their story telling that much better.
Imagine by Pentatonix may be one of the most important videos of this century. This group took a classic song of tolerance and peace and modernized it as only they can. They are a perfect example of what respect and love can be like. Five people with differences in race, religion, gender, and sexuality can do beautiful things when they work together. I cried when I heard this the first time. I still usually tear up when they go into Wall of Sound mode. Unfortunately showing this to Pentaholics is kind of like preaching to the choir with most of us.
I am 61. I still cannot hear PTX Imagine w/o tears.
By the by, I'm not crying-you're crying!
Welcome to the journey of becoming a Pentaholic! Also, if you didn't notice, the cards all had specifics that described whoever was holding the card, but also showed what they had in common with the person they were giving the card to! A simple yet super effective way to show their message. Loved your reaction again, sincerely!
First things first: fantastic reaction. Died laughing when you walked out and was resurrected in time to comment. Second, no harm taking breaks! You've been going hard for weeks. Just glad you're OK. Third, welcome to the PTX "wall of sound" (which you crashed into headfirst). Knew this song would get you in the feels. They did John Lennon proud.
This is the best cover of this song ever. And the video is masterful because it shows how amazingly well they "get" the message of that song.
It takes a lot of chutzpah for any musician to take on the likes of John Lennon, Freddie Mercury, and Simon & Garfunkel. Pentatonix always rises to the occasion and certainly makes those artists-living or not-proud. Like I often say-leave it to Pentatonix to take something perfect and make it even better.
Omg! You mean you're a human being & needed to take a break, get some rest?! The nerve!😉
And no, you haven't heard Avi's regular singing voice yet but you will. When you said you were gonna keep your emotions in check, I literally laughed out loud! And thoroughly enjoyed the crap out of the rest of your reaction!
Kevin's solo always makes me cry. His voice is just so sweet❤️
(As Mitch comes forward) You: “Nonononono…you little magic man!” 😂😂😂😂
Your reactions are so enjoyable (and accurate to how I am also feeling)! For something less “teary”, but no less mind-blowing (and totally fun) may I suggest Daft Punk, Bohemian Rhapsody and Making Christmas.
Pentatonix has found the secret to reaching right into your soul. And it all come so natural to them. And don't be afraid to be an "emotional wreck" I think the whole world could use a visit from the Pentatonix Wrecking Ball! This song specifically drives that point home!!
You're not alone, kiddo. Pentatonix has a way of reducing just about everyone to piles of smoking rubble. I used to be embarrassed, but now I just sob. I feel great afterwards, too. Win/win. "Imagine" gets me every single time. I've been a Pentaholic since 2012. I feel as if they're actually part of my family...even Kevin...even Matt. They're real. They're passionate about what they do. It shows.
Hasn't it been amazing to see their evolution? They get better and better! And I love Avi's music, amazing!
John Lennon would have loved his song done by these five incredible humans. So glad you loved it. Avi and Mitch sounded wonderful.
I have never cared for this song..but WOW!!..Blown away..I LOVE IT NOW!!
OMG you're hilarious!! Avi attacked Scott superplexed Kevin kicked and Kirsty kracked up the side of the head. ❤ your reactions!!
If you want to have fun with PTX, check out their original song "Sing." It's wonderful!
I actually haven't heard this one in a while. Going to listen again now.
Yes! After this kick in the emotional nards, Sing will put you in a better place and make you happy. You need to balance these videos or you will become an emotional wreck. Great reaction. I'll have to subscribe.
Absolutely agree, Sing is just fun. Do that next to recover.
I love this song (yea, I say that about all of PTX songs. So what? 😃) I love it because it's fun and shows how much they love their fans by including them.
And Come Along! Cover but excellent!!
Some people have already mentioned this, but the cards show both their individual identities and their shared identities. Cards passed between members of the group are things they have in common! This was also Scott's public coming out!
KO'ed by the PTX Wall of Sound! We feel you. I usually tear up when Kirstin turns over her Latina card to reveal "Woman," with that soaring solo, and if you didn't get the point of the cards up until then, it hits like a ton of bricks. Have another slap to add to your slap-itude: this _may_ have been Scott's public coming-out. Mitch arrived in the public eye as an out gay man when they participated in The Sing-Off in 2011 (although the show's producers kept trying to stuff him back into the closet), but his childhood friend Scott was a little more cautious about the whole thing. Then he blew the whole thing wide open when he took that LGBTQ+ card from Mitch in this video.
To be honest Love 💕. Your a true Pentaholic. Welcome 🤗 ❤🤷♀️🇬🇧👍
Avi Kaplan has made me tear up time and time again. Scott has said that if there was an emotional song, Avi had to have the lead. You will have to see some of his solo projects or collaborations. Peter Hollens has had all three...Tim, Avi and Geoff on his channel.
Peter has had Scott on as well. And while the video for "Turn Up the Music" is good (and sometimes amusing) the BtS is absolutely hilarious; Peter, Scott, and Riley and Jimmy from Fifgen Films had a blast making it. (Yes, I know Scott is not a bass like the other three, but I like pushing this video because it doesn't get enough attention.)
I love your Avi Attacked and Kevin Kicked etc! Speaking of Avi, he was given a good solo in Hallelujah, but as you were new to Pentatonix it probably passed you by as you probably weren't aware yet that he was the bass as well.
I agree with you entirely about Kevin's singing voice - especially in this song. Like Avi, it's a shame their specialist positions prevent them from singing solos more.
Thanks also for showing the Tik Tok piece with the girl doing a great Frosty solo with Pentatonix. Also a nice story.
It’s not just Scot you need to be nice too you 😂😂❤❤❤
"Nope...Nope...Nope you little magic man" best reaction to Mitch ever
They did Lennon proud and America proud! Love them beyond words, they are a gem that keeps me having hope in these hard times!
Mitch did a Patreon live stream yesterday, and someone mentioned the term Mitch-Slap and he didn’t know what it meant. When it was explained he seemed to find it amusing. 😁 I’m waiting for you to watch the Evolution Michael Jackson and Bohemian Rapsody. ETA: that ‘peak’- when they all sing, and it’s just….. epic? We call that PTX’s wall of sound.
That was cute, wasn't it? I love the live streams. Also the pod. Oh and when Austin cooks. Mitch is beyond sweet and kind, lol and he has such snark sometimes... lol..
My own feelings were all over your face. This is truly awesomeness.
This one brings me to tears every time, and I've watched it many times.
Me too!
Lmao you're hilarious. 6 hours later? Your responses are priceless 🤣 Welcome down the PTX rabbit hole my friend ❤
Metal heads have feelings too. I know, I'm one of them, and PTX brings me joy and melts my heart every day too. Loving your reactions🤗
They are the pinnacle of a cappella. They do occasionally respond to fans and others on social media, but their fan base has grown so big. They lead the way for others like Home Free who won the Sing Off the year after PTX.
Glad to see you got to “Imagine.” A tune from my youth, it’s one of my favorites. Reactions to a cappella seems to fit you well despite it not formally being ‘your thing’. Truth be told, music in many forms can touch anyone’s soul. Keep up the great reactions and perhaps invest in tissues at bulk rate.
Daft Punk and Bohemian Rhapsody. Then you might be ready for Aha! Singapore at the star Vista which is a fan recording at a live PTX concert.
I kept thinking the whole way through this reaction when you couldn't handle each of their solo parts, just wait for the wall of sound. I knew you would really go insane over that!! Love it!!
favorite one ever & Mary did you know !
You make my night i'm a 67 year old great grandmother can't get enough of pentatonix. Your reactions are really wonderful you've now fallen into the pentatonix tunnel. As i've said to you before, try 'love again' and 'daft punk'
One if my favorite song with Avi singing is their song "Light in the Hallway. If I'm not mistaken it was written by Scott for his new born nephew, and he thought Avi would have the best take on it. It's like a lullaby and oh so sweet! 🤗😍
Yes please!!!! I have the album that has Light in the Hallway on it, and that song I'll put on repeat in my car after a rough day
Prime example where the sum is greater than the individual parts
You’ll find many, many more PTX that you’ll need you tissues for. Your soon becoming a Pentaholic, fast. Welcome too the Rabbit Hole. 😂😂😂❤❤❤
I highly recommend Daft Punk (which as already mentioned got them their first Grammy), Sound of Silence (which has Matt in it), and Bohemian Rhapsody (which has Avi). If you are in the mood for Christmas songs - Mary, Did you know, We saw Three Ships, Hallelujah (which they released on a Christmas album but is just beautiful any time of year), The Prayer (which was just released), and Making Christmas (from Nightmare before Christmas)
Love your reaction just as much as I love this song! Incredible message and I wish their message could be followed by the whole world 🏴
I watch a LOT of PTX reaction videos and I never subscribe at first because I have noticed that some will just watch them long enough to get subscribers and than never listen to them again. I subscribed today because I LOVE your reactions with them!
Yes she did kill it. But that’s what PTX TO me is about. They just want too sing and share!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thats the thing about pentaholics , we come together as one!❤..and i think i have been mitch slapped so many times that i have a concussion 😅😅
I love everything PTX puts out but I gotta be honest Mitch is absolutely my favorite one and his Mitch slap in this song is def one of my favs along wt the solo he does in Amazing grace wow they really touch my heart!!!
Pentatonix paid tribute to John Lennon with starting off following the original then they took it to the PTX upgrade with each one of them masterfully singing then the vocal layering and the PTX signature Wall of Sound. The message cards showed characteristics of the person holding the card then the characteristic they shared with the person they passed it on to. In the end they reminded us that we are all human beings. PTX used their platform well to share this message of inclusivity, diversity and tolerance. You should react to the history of Pentatonix video - about 15 minutes long - tells the story of how they started with Scott and Mitch knowing each other from about age 10 and going through high school with Kirstie, then finding Kevin and Avi a few days before auditioning for the sing off. After Avi left amicably, Kevin joined and they are a family of friends. In 2021 they celebrated their tenth anniversary with an album called The Lucky Ones. The title track is very telling. You should react to the music video as well as some of their originals like Happy Now, Be My Eyes, Coffee in Bed and Anchor (no music video for that one only audio).
This John Lennon`s song from 1971 and this message is timeless and PTX did something special in this video.
They have so many good ones but this one is so amazing!
To get even more of Kevin's virtuosity you could watch their cover of "Radioactive" with Lindsey Sterling.
One of my favorites!! (Which one isn't, right? Lol). But I also love Lindsey Sterling, she's amazing!
Their original song "The Lucky Ones" was co-written by Scott. It's about their journey.
Yay, I'm glad my comment on your last video convinced you to react to this (thanks for the likes Pentaholics). Thanks for the great reaction. I know what you mean about forgetting to breathe. It's definitely one of my favourites because of the way they portray and transform the message with their video.
Yes This is probably my 500th time to see this and it gets me every time! The message in this one is so powerful. And not only the message that they conveyed, but when that wall of sound hits you - It’s like you can’t breathe!! I love it so much! Your reactions are awesome!
We love Pentatonix for all the reasons you mentioned. They appeal to every age group and fans of every genre. They're so versatile and take on any project from classical music (Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy) to EDM (Daft Punk medley), and rap (Can't Hold Us, Problem) to every decade of pop and rock. And they do it all with their naked voices. I think that's what gets us in the feels. Just the artistry of human sounds, connecting to human hearts. This song makes me well up, too. For an amazing change of pace, would love to watch you react to the Daft Punk medley. I'm no EDM fan, but their version of highly computerized dance music is riveting. It won them their first Grammy, and Kevin and Avi really get to strut their stuff.
Omg. This reaction is EPIC! Even knowing Mitch you still got #MitchSlapped. And just the realness of your reaction. Love it.
Another fun reaction from you. Enjoy your honesty and your humor. You are just scratching the surface with PTX and Home Free. Keep going and enjoy the ride.
“You….little magic man…” you made me laugh with that one!!!
March 2, 2022 - I had to watch your reaction again today to this specific song because Ukraine. Thank you for your reaction to this.
"Avi-attacked" made me grin so wide ♥
I love love love your reactions....so funny
I have watched this reaction more than any other reaction ever...from no you little magic man to your physical demonstration of heaven falling out of Kevin's mouth (prob my fave comment ever 🤣), and when u put ur hands up like a boxer when Mitch started, followed by u looking upward mouthing "why?", and of course the facial reactions thru the whole video but esp during Mitch's part (esp when ur hands clasped over ur mouth 🤣), loved the little birdie explanation...I definitely think it was ur heart, loved the forgetting to breathe comment (we've all been there), and I love that u accept they make u emotional, sometimes to the point of tears...a lot of men would laugh or joke it off or even delete the video but u talked about it and wanted to figure out how and why they make u feel so deeply. That is a great example to set, esp for boys and young men who may have been taught to hide their emotions. Keep doing you and I'll keep being a fan. Come back soon...miss ur reactions!
Also, who is Jeff? Is it the creepy clown doll we saw in Hallelujah? Or is it a real person?
If you haven't already, you should watch their covers of 1.The prayer, 2. Amazing grace and 3. Cheerleader.
Also, you're perfect reactions to everything is why I've watched this video at least 10x!
I watched like 15 of your videos tonight. This one made me cry because of the song, obviously, but your reaction had me rolling. Subbed!
That girl can sing! Dang.
Yet again love 💕 😢. There’s no harm in crying. 😢😢😢🤷♀️🫶🇬🇧🇺🇸🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸
Want a tid bit? Mitch, Kirstie, and Scott went to high school together! Imagine those musicals and concerts!
Thank you for your awesome and sometimes hysterical 😂 reactions. You asked WHY? Because they are aliens from the planet HARMONY. SHH that’s a secret. 🤫
Hahahahahahaha 😂 all your "each-member-attack" analogies are amazing 😂
You know they're genuine as they reveal and expose themselves with their cards. Showing what they have in common and what's different. You may have missed a bit while you were overwhelmed. Watch again.
Check out "Sing". It's a video made with their fans.
Take breaks whenever ya please. It's about quality not quantity.
Another righteous reaction here. Btw, even the beastliest among us are defenseless against these heart melting voices. No shame in shedding a tear. Besides, you didn't weep this time anyway so uh....what's wrong with you? Don't answer that.
Obviously, I don't know you. I have watched several of your reaction videos to PTX and based on that, you seem like a genuine guy. That's really appreciated these days. Feel the feels and share them. Thanks so much for sharing.
Such a great & honest reaction…please keep it up. Ugly cries are permitted…
Today, 12-8-21, is the 41st anniversary of John Lennon's death. I have no idea if you are old enough to remember this, but I remember it like it just happened today. A very sad day. It's fitting that I am watching it now. PTX made the absolute BEST cover of "Imagine" that I have ever heard.
Avi singing change is on the rise is beautiful really showcases his voice
I love the Haymarket reference!
So...this is MY first time hearing this one, too. Can't wait!
Its always amazing that one can be Mitch Slapped even when you are expecting it!!!! mitch simply has one of the most beautiful voices. That is pure magic in musical form..other-worldly..my conspiracy theory....they are aliens from a music world.
Kevin is a Renaissance man. He can do anything.
Enjoying your reactions to PTX
That was the Wall of Sound. If only we could learn to live as humans.
One of Lennon's best post Beatles. It's a powerful song with a powerful message. PTX knocked this out of the park. Made me cry from the first time and never fails to make me do so every time I see this video.
😂🤣😂 Did you crack your head open when you ran head first into the Pentatonix wall of sound!! You have to learn to duck to protect your heart and soul when you hear it coming at you!
That’s called hearing the sound of ‘Angels’.
Fans call Avi, Tim and Geoff 'super basses'. They are all incredibly gifted singers, each with their own tone and unique sound.
I cried the first time watching this. So moving.
Of all their videos this is the best. The song is so beautifully done but the visuals show how well they understood the heart of the song... and I've seen it well over 100 times heck close to 200 I'm sure; but even so every time they turn over their cards at the end....I tear up.
And yes they are truly sweet and caring people another part of their success...their genuine love of what they do and of each other and their audiences...
It never looses its impact either.
I think you would enjoy reacting to Avi's solo music, particularly, Change is on the Rise :o) Thank you for the great reaction videos.
Believe me when I say that this will not be the second, third or fourth time tears will appear during a PTX video. It happens more times than most of us would like. If you would like to see something upbeat check out their "Daft Punk" medley. That is living proof that hard work, dedication, and $400 can win you a Grammy. If you want more of the my brain went poof, try their original " Run to You" or their cover of "Mad World." Also it is getting to be Christmas time and PTX has an extensive Christmas catalog which includes "Over the River" which they just dropped this past week.
Did you see the TikTok duet where the person does a trumpet sound? They left a very enthusiastic response on his too.
Your responses are the BEST! Still looking forward to your reaction to their Bohemian Rhapsody. I can’t wait to see your face when Mitch becomes an electric guitar 🎸. Have a great day!
I love when Mitch becomes a 🎸!!
What they do to a song when they sing it is fantastic. They don't change the words or the basic tune, they put their feelings and their hearts into it and let it flow out and touch our hearts and feelings and create a unique way to touch hearts. I love them. I love watching your reactions. You let your feelings show.
That last super-choral section is explosive, eh?? 😏
Avi ("ah-vee) is wonderful. Listen to them sing "Light in the Hallway" or Avi in "Black is the Color" with Peter Hollens.
"Run to You" is an original that is equally gorgeous!!
You have the best expressions ☺️
Good thing you left when you did...your hat would have popped off AND your socks knocked off.
I'm trying to be funny like you. I don't think it's working 😂
“No, you little magic man!”
You don't often find 5 people who share such amazing vocal abilities, much less who sing together and make such heartfelt sounds...
The Mitch Maker 😂
Wait until you hear Avi, pronounced “ Ahhh-vie”, sing in “Hallelujah”.
So many feelings, huh. I understand fully. You're hooked now.
Great reaction. The words to this song could not ring truer than in the times we live in. ❤️
Pentaholics are a very passionate fanbase and will grow your channel exponentially if they like your reactions. However beware of getting burned out. There's a pool of emotion and you don't want it running dry. Take time when you need it; we'll understand. Cheers!
Edit 1: Avi's voice is just so expressive and beautiful and warm. He has an incredible (5-octaves?) range and sounds like a vocal hug. I call it getting Avi-lanched.
Edit 2: That part at the end where they're all harmonizing and blowing you away is what we affectionately call the "wall of sound" and they use it quite often and it makes you forget that there are no instruments in this group, only voices.
Edit 3: Pentatonix is very generous of its fans. I think it's probably because of how they started. They got dropped from their record contract two weeks after The Sing-Off because the label didn't think that acapella could be mainstream. So they started releasing videos on TH-cam and grew their fan base that way. And even though most of them have done solo work, when they are with each other, they all work in the service of the song. If you notice when they are all harmonizing together, even though you can pick out each individual voice, you will not hear any of them try to stand higher than the others unless it is called for. I noticed it first on Hallelujah so I may have to go back to that video and comment there so you can see what I mean.
Edit 4 (last, I promise): Tears are not a bad thing. They are a reasonable response to music that moves you, and this music obviously moves you. You will not be the first to be brought to tears by some of these songs. And as for your "man card," you get a pass for Pentatonix songs. I remember one reactor who was following suggestions to more and more moving songs, until at one point he said, "okay now you're just _trying_ to make me cry." Yep. And it worked. You're also not the first one to get up and walk away in the middle of a song. I love your reactions. Mostly because it reminds me of how I felt when I first heard these songs. It's kind of a vicarious first-time listen. Keep doing what you do and I'll keep watching. I have subscribed and I look forward to what you'll do next! Cheers!
Thank you for being honest with you! This made me sub for sure. Good on you! Happy to be here! So wonderful to see a man becoming emotional to a beautiful and edifying song. Gives me hope for tomorrow!
Happy to see you today! We all need breaks so take them. I love this song, so glad you reacted to this one. ❤️ 🏳️⚧️
