My favorite parts of this one are Matt and Mitch singing together, Mitch's eyes being so haunting in his closeups, and Kirstie's side smile and vocal on her final solo part. But the whole song is amazing and they all did a phenomenal job.
Their version is so much better than the original by Tears for Fears. The chords and harmonies are haunting and stunning at the same time. Love your reactions
I knew you'd love it! Everything about it is amazing, from Mitch and Matt together, no percussion and those harmonies, their signature wall of sound and Kirsties expressions at the end. I just love everything about it. Scott looks like he has tears in his eyes toward the end. Was so apt for when they released it too. Thank you Travis, I knew you'd get to it 🙂
Congrats on the 25k!!! It's was so fast I swear lol. I absolutely love this cover. So haunting. My 9 year old had to run to his keyboard to teach himself to play it immediately after I showed him this. He learns everything by ear and had it in a half hour. He kept tearing himself up. 😂 Can't wait for you to react to "Royals" "we are young" from their way way back. "Petals" from their new stuff. It's so fun watching others get hit in the face and feels the same way.
Really liked your reaction (again). This is one of my favourite Pentatonix pieces as the harmonies are outstanding. I appreciated your drawing attention to Matt being a quality soloist, and the great combination of Matt and Mitch's voices working together. Also, great final summary.
I'm happy that you reacted to this beautiful Pentatonix cover. They made a masterpiece, IMO. I loved Matt and Mitch singing together. Also loved Scott and Kirstin singing together. I love how Kevin helped fill out the harmonies. Did you notice the shadowy figures walking in the background behind each of them and walked backwards during certain parts of the song? They are so creative.
Wonderful reaction, Travis! I love the original, but this is even ten times better.. haunting, intense, amazing, one of my absolute favourites by them.. need more Matt and Mitch, they sound beautiful together.. glad you did this
Every time I listen to this version I am more and more impressed. Between the visuals and the complementary harmonies I am blown away. Another PTX upgrade from the original!!!
Yes! I've been waiting for this one! You've gotten to almost all my favorites now :) I'll miss the premiere as I have plans already :(, but I will catch it the minute I get home!
This was a fantastic cover of this song. I listen to this one more because I love Pentatonix and all their covers exceed the originals. Great reaction to this song!❤️
Hello Travis. Thank you for this reaction. I discovered Pentatonix in October 2020, brand new Pentaholic, so a lot of these songs I am seeing for the first time. Happy to be on this discovery journey with you. Pentatonix never ceases to amaze with their individual and collective talents.
The first perfect pandemic song, the second being Thank You from their 2020 Christmas album. This was released after their Home EP and before their pandemic Christmas album in 2020. Just really matched the mood of the time. It was a definite upgrade compared to the original in my opinion.
Hey Trav!!! I saw this just as I was fixing to leave to go see Genesis in concert. This is a huge moment/night for me, as I am a HUGE Genesis fan & this is their last tour ever!!! At least this concert is in Charlotte so no train trip is necessary! Lol!😉 Thanks for your reaction to Mad World!! One of my top 5 favs of Ptx covers. And that is a monumental statement!! I am an 80s chick, so this was one of my fav songs then too, by original artists Tears For Fears -a fav band of mine back then & still today (who, incidentally are also on tour again right now!!) I will watch any other videos you post tonight after I get home from the show. Will post pics on IG for you! 💜 Love ya!!
Hi Travis!! I'm so glad you reacted to this one. It's one of my favorites, so haunting and beautiful at the same time. So glad you mentioned Adam Lambert and his version from American Idol season #8. (I think he was robbed by Kris Allen that season, just my opinion). Your reactions are always priceless and spot-on. Can't wait for you to hear "Light in the Hallway," and "Where are You Christmas?" How about some Home Free..."Go Rest High on that Mountain" (Vince Gill cover) is a good one.
I love the Matt & Mitch harmony. Wish they would do more of it. Did you ever listen do cologne? It has a Kirstie Matt harmony :) It something different than always have to listen to the trio harmony (wich is amazing but we are used to it). I don't understand why Kevin doesn't get a solo in such kind of songs.
I love Adam Lambert's version as well. Until I heard PTX's version Adam's version was the best I'd ever heard. So I will just have to love both versions and I wont pick a favorite. By the way have you ever heard Adam Lambert's performance dedicated to the victims of the Pulse Night Club shooting? He performed "Who Wants To Live Forever" with "Queen" the day after the shooting at The Isle of Wight Festival in 2016. Talk about breathtaking and chill inducing. If you haven't heard it yet (or even if you have) I would love to see your reaction to this incredible performance. Here is the link to make it easier for you th-cam.com/video/eHPv80jNoQU/w-d-xo.html
Music at its best. If you would check out their version of "Perfect" Ed Sheeran song. And their original "Be My Eyes" featuring Kirsty keep up the good work enjoying your reactions. Your the best.
Honestly, do you have someone who just stands around just to hit you with a 2x4? You really have the stank face down pat. Bring someone who can carry you away from the concert. You will barely survive it. I've seen them live. It's transcendent.
Goddamit!! How do you reactors ALWAYS get Kirsten's name wrong? It's not Christy. It's not Kirstie. It's not Christine. It's KIRSTEN! Sheesh, what's difficult about it?
After hearing this we need more Matt and Mitch harmonies. Please and thanks
Matt+Mitch=Match an I’m here for it
Matt and Mitch are called MATCH when they harmonize together
Matt and Mitch --we need more of that in my opinion. There version, coupled with the video is haunting. Glad you reacted to it
The first #Match harmonies we didn't know we needed😁 Love it!!
Matt + Mitch = Match. Made in heaven! Superlative performances from Scott, Kirstie and Kevin too. These 5-part harmonies are truly special.
My favorite parts of this one are Matt and Mitch singing together, Mitch's eyes being so haunting in his closeups, and Kirstie's side smile and vocal on her final solo part. But the whole song is amazing and they all did a phenomenal job.
Oh, when you get to their You're a mean one mr. Grinch, there is a bts where Matt looks panicked at Kevin and says, I'm a bass I can't remeber lyrics!
Their version is so much better than the original by Tears for Fears. The chords and harmonies are haunting and stunning at the same time. Love your reactions
Isn’t this wonderful?! Omg Matt…wow! Pentatonix kills it EVERY…single…time ❤️
I knew you'd love it! Everything about it is amazing, from Mitch and Matt together, no percussion and those harmonies, their signature wall of sound and Kirsties expressions at the end. I just love everything about it. Scott looks like he has tears in his eyes toward the end. Was so apt for when they released it too. Thank you Travis, I knew you'd get to it 🙂
I think the Matt/Mitch harmonies are some of my favorites! Their voices are both so pure!
Matt and Mitch together is like a delicious Milk Chocolate treat🤩❤️‼️.
Stark, lush, haunting, luminous.
Great reaction! Mitch and Matt singing together is pure magic!✌❤🇨🇦
The five part harmonies are crazy. They made this song theirs as far as I'm concerned and I love this song. Love watching your face react. Thx Travis😎
Matt & Mitch =Match! Love these 2 together!.
Mitch and Matt together sound so good!!!!
This is the best arrangement of Mad World that I have found. One of my favorite source for an eargasm. Thank you for sharing with your audience.
Congrats on the 25k!!! It's was so fast I swear lol.
I absolutely love this cover. So haunting. My 9 year old had to run to his keyboard to teach himself to play it immediately after I showed him this. He learns everything by ear and had it in a half hour. He kept tearing himself up. 😂
Can't wait for you to react to "Royals" "we are young" from their way way back. "Petals" from their new stuff. It's so fun watching others get hit in the face and feels the same way.
It always feels so much fuller when Kevin is singing too, in light of the harmonies.
Adam Lambert made fall in in love with this song. I was excited to hear PTX cover it too.
This is one of my favorites - so glad you now get to listen to it whenever you want too!
Pentatonix are superb 💜. I’m going to see them for the first time the end of November 😉😎😎😃😃😃😃
Travis > Your reactions to PTX are some of THE BEST! Thank you
Mitch looks right in to my soul!
Thanks thanks !!! I’m so happy for your reaction
Baltimore 1 week from tonight am seeing them live for 1st time! I am so excited!
This is stunning , by far the best version of this song ,just beautiful 💗

Ohh I've been hoping you'd do this one! Looking forward to this!
FINALLY!! I’ve been waiting for this oneeeee!! The harmonies! Matt and Mitch! Just AHHHH
You're a great reactor.. and this song is very hauntingly awesome... and really cool shirt you got on... I dig the way you do your thing sir!!
Another awesome upgrade by PTX!
Wonderful reaction, Travis! I love the original, but this is even ten times better.. haunting, intense, amazing, one of my absolute favourites by them.. need more Matt and Mitch, they sound beautiful together.. glad you did this
You need to hear them sing( Where Are You Christmas) you will love it!
I knew you would LOVE this version!!😁😁😉
Every time I listen to this version I am more and more impressed. Between the visuals and the complementary harmonies I am blown away. Another PTX upgrade from the original!!!
Yes! I've been waiting for this one! You've gotten to almost all my favorites now :) I'll miss the premiere as I have plans already :(, but I will catch it the minute I get home!
"Simple but haunting" that about sums it up. Also I'll always remember this came out in the summer of 2020. Mad world indeed.
DONNIE DARKO! One of the most chilling, haunting songs ever! Amazing cover! The lyrics resonate through the soul 🏴
I love this version over the original matt and Mitch together was so good
I can't get enough of this song!
Yaaaay I’m so glad you reacted to this one! Love your channel ❤️
Ugh! Just missed the live! 😩 Damn kids. Can never decide what they want to eat. 😒🤣🤣
I haven't seen this version by them. I saw the first one. I like this one a lot more.
Travis you are awesome....
OOOOO - I've been waiting for you to listen to this. :-) It is so good but it kicks me in the feels every time.
Love Kristie's side smile
Glad I caught this premiere! Knew you'd like it!
I love watching reactors become Pentaholics. You are definitely my favorite PTX reactor to watch! Loving your journey!
This was a fantastic cover of this song. I listen to this one more because I love Pentatonix and all their covers exceed the originals. Great reaction to this song!❤️

Just really matched the mood of the time. It was a definite upgrade compared to the original in my opinion.
I think PTX should have gotten a Grammy for it, or at least be a nominee. I remember I was disappointed. This performance is so good.
Love this cover, so pretty and poignant.
Loved the reaction!!
Love their upgrade of this ! 🥰
I knew you would love this
I have been waiting for you to do this one Matt and Mitch are great they sound amazing together great reaction thank you 😁
Big Tears for Fears fan since the beginning I still have their Songs from the Big Chair Album in my attic
They are amazing. Your reaction is priceless. Love them
One of my absolute favourites - SO glad you have experienced this finally 🥰
It is hauntingly beautiful… subtly masterful!
Much love from Canada 🇨🇦

🤣Took you long enough!
But it was worth the wait!🙂
Reach for the pause button, then Matt starts a solo, jerk hand back....hahahaha!
Before you see them live, you need to react to Mr. Grinch!
Matt takes the spotlight in this
It's a Matt World! I agree, more Matt solos please!
Just wanna say your new camera and setup are chef's kiss
Thank you !
That shirt seems to make sense for this clip! Gotta watch Bohemian Rhapsody by PTX
Oh em gawd❣️❣️❣️
I highly recommend " hit the road Jack" live performance on the Queen Latifa show. Often overlooked great live performance. J.
Love your shirt!
This is in my top three idc idc
Love your shirt.
I love this version. I am old enough to be in HS when the original came out. I loved Tears for Fears, but this is an upgrade!!!!
Mix and match is a bit haphazard but Mitch and Matt is spot on. (Yes, Match!)
If you liked Ghost, check out Superfruit’s Carpool Choreography! So fun!
Tears for Fears was my era, they have some great music. I think you would like Everybody Wants to Rule the World or Shout
I would love you to react to 12 days of Christmas - joy to the world and my favorite things PTX please🙏❤️I love your reactions.
Did you notice that Kirstie was wearing a mask at 4:38? Just a fun fact. I didn't like this song until PTX did it. Love your reactions! Thanks.
Matt + Mitch = Match. It's a very popular blend :)
You *need* to do Mr. Grinch. Seriously. Need.
I love this one! I'm new to your channel and not sure of everything you covered of theirs. Imagine is amazing and somebody that I used to know :)
Check out his Pentatonix playlist:)
Travis you love Christmas and Matt so you must react to Matt’s Grinch (ofc with Pentatonix too) ✌️💚🎄
I love the Matt & Mitch harmony. Wish they would do more of it. Did you ever listen do cologne? It has a Kirstie Matt harmony :) It something different than always have to listen to the trio harmony (wich is amazing but we are used to it).

daaaang dude where you get them shirts?
👍 love your reactions! Avi has a new one! "First place I go" please🤗
Music at its best. If you would check out their version of "Perfect" Ed Sheeran song. And their original "Be My Eyes" featuring Kirsty keep up the good work enjoying your reactions. Your the best.
react to PTX you're a mean one mr grinch, Matt is the main singer in that one
Honestly, do you have someone who just stands around just to hit you with a 2x4? You really have the stank face down pat. Bring someone who can carry you away from the concert. You will barely survive it. I've seen them live. It's transcendent.
Goddamit!! How do you reactors ALWAYS get Kirsten's name wrong? It's not Christy. It's not Kirstie. It's not Christine. It's KIRSTEN! Sheesh, what's difficult about it?
Wow. You seem big mad. Get a life
