Scott & Mitch ......... Wowwwwwwww Everyone... Wowwwwwwwww, God must smile when He hears you all sing!!
Just before the song released, Scott and Kevin did separate live streams about the album and songs. Both of them commented that this was one of the most challenging and difficult arrangements they've ever done. Plus the sections of Scott and Mitch together gave totally gave me Superfruit vibes - their voices are just fabulous together - add in Kirsten and it's heavenly.
💕💙🎶🎵🎶**IF THERE IS MUSIC IN HEAVEN, IT WOULD SOUND LIKE PENTATONIX** 🎶🎵🎶💙💕
Scott released a TikTok a few days ago him practicing his part for the 12 days of Christmas. It is insane. I guess he just has to sing it a million times until muscle memory kicks in because it seems so disjointed. Worth the watch...no need to react
I saw that and it was SO interesting to imagine each of them practicing their parts like that (or something similar). A great look behind the scenes.
Thank you for telling us that! That was amazing! Hillarious as well.
DJ, we told you, we told you it would blow your mind! LOL And you made us wait forever!!! This was by far my favorite of theirs and I would not be surprised if "grammy talk" started over it. I got "Narnia vibes" from the video, I was looking for the lamppost, but then Mitch opened his mouth and the world fell away and that was left was his angelic voice. I loved when Celine Dion and Josh Groban did this, and it's hard to compare the 2, but this is definitely my favorite PTX song/video. Mitch and Scott just naturally sound amazing together, people get shocked by Scott's solid Baritone, but I don't think they really realize the range he has and what a fantastic singer he is, he just performed at Carnegie Hall a week and a half ago. Kirstie and Mitch volleying back and forth, perfection! There is nothing but wonderful, lovely ear candy in this whole song. And the fact that they're crossing Pop and Opera and bringing it to the masses is just another plus! Loved your reaction, can't wait for the next!!!
Absolutely stunning work from every single member! Grammy #4 is what we just heard! Andre & Celine will be proud! I also enjoy Celine’s duet withJosh Groban! THIS is now my favorite. Mitch soaring with chromatic runs & Scott’s strong baritone Italian!
I first heard this song as a duet with Josh Groban & Charlotte Church. They did a fabulous rendition in the Closing Ceremony of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
Should have been a Grammy IMO
They were all stunning -but - damn Scott!!
I always look forward to hearing your comments, and seeing your expressions, during your reactions! I think that this was their best performance!
Every time I hear one of their covers, it reminds me musically of a Disney classic (from back in the day when they were so well done).
Listen to the last minute of the song with your eyes closed and picture it in a Disney animated movie.
This is a beautiful video. Beautiful rendition of this song - The Prayer. Giving a message of hope for us all. Pentatonix never disappoints. All five of them are masters of their craft - individually and collectively. For this song there was skillful choice and perfect placing of each member in the arrangement. Mitch at the start and throughout owned this song with conviction, vocal clarity, the notes he hits and holds, his runs, his vibratos, his timing and his precision. Scott with his operatic presentation strong and convincing in linguistic detail. Kirstin with her belting power notes. Matt on the consistent bass undertone. Kevin on the strong and well-timed vocal percussion. The rich vocals, the solos, the duets, the tones, the call and response, the layering, the harmonizing, the wall of sound, building to the crescendo and then the clarity piercing through again. Superb performance by Pentatonix. A capella at its very best. They deserve a Grammy for this.
I was looking forward to this one! 🥰 These guy’s really knocked it outta the park on this one. I’ll be shocked if they don’t get a Grammy!
Well worth the wait. The breakdown of each individual singer IS amazing, but as a group they are truly heads above the rest.
Wassup Jamez I'm Ethan
@@ethan_gvo ethan what's good brother?
Nothin much u?
@@ethan_gvo chilling like a villain 😎.
For the Christmas season: please, please please: Silent Night. It's a live performance, no microphones...and it's absolutely stunning.
I've been waiting for you to do this one. Your face as you watched was worth waiting for. It's beautiful music and this song is one of my new favorites. Just FYI, it's a cover of a Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli (sp?) duet. And both Mitch and Kirsten do it well. Not to mention Scott singing in Italian.
Damn! Lol... another great song treated with the respect and talent it deserves. What a team! 🤗
Stunning. Absolutely stunning.
So good to hear your comments about this brilliant rendition. I always enjoy your reactions. You should watch Pentatonix Springpop (or Popspringconcert 2016. It’s live and the just so brilliantly shows their skills at both entertaining, exceptional pitch and blend in a LIVE setting as well as singing 4 songs, 3 of which are originals they wrote, as well as their awesome Michael Jackson evolution arrangement. Absolutely stellar stuff!
Thank you SO much for reacting to this song in such a timely manner. This is rapidly becoming my PTX “go to”…well this week anyway…lol! Seriously tho, being a bit of a Mitch freak, getting to hear him duet with Scott then Kirstie while singing angelicly thruout…beautiful! BTW, it is a Disney song, at least from a Disney movie performed by Celine Dion and Andreas Bocelli…and never, NEVER underestimate the importance and skill of Kevin and Matt in pulling it all together! Thanks again!!! And oh yeah…Tonix Tuesdays ROCK
They produced a masterpiece.
So happy to hear your view on this song! I love your reactions especially when it comes to PTX and their members! You have the greatest sense of humor and know just what to appreciate (according to me, anyway)! Thank you for keeping up with Tonix Tuesdays! Always look forward to them!
HI DJ! So good to see your reaction to this one. This song is so amazing, that I actually bought the Evergreen CD and have been playing it on my daily commutes to and from work. I haven't bought a CD in over 20 years. I am not a Christian, and I hate Christmas in general (the commercialization) but I grew up singing in choirs and I love Christmas music. I know, so weird. This has to be my favorite Pentatonix Christmas album.
I don't have your expertise in music but I have played a musical instrument growing up....with that being said and the fact that I have followed this angelic group through most of their 10 years together...I think we might be seeing Grammy #4....but like I said...I just have a love for music just not a teacher....Love Your Reaction on this one
Pentatonix. Their singing is magic
Please do 'Come Along.' It's just so quirky and weird, and I love it. Every time I hear it, I think something like, "Do you want the Wild Hunt? Because this is how you summon the Wild Hunt." The original by Cosmo Sheldrake is even weirder, but I love the layers and effects of the Pentatonix version.
Love your reactions. I would love to hear each member separately because I'm sure what you say is right on the mark. But the best we can do is try to follow just one throughout...not very easy, to be sure. I did try to concentrate on Matt this time through, and, Wow! His support is crucial to the sound without a doubt. No need to mention Kevin, who just seems to exceed all boundaries for mere mortals.
PTX still alive and well. They’re doing a world tour in 2023. Tickets already available. (It’s May www now)
They are so good. Boyce Ave acoustic version of "Better Days" is strong too. I just discovered him on here and I was spellbound.
Can't have PTX reactions without you!! Excited for this one. Excellent reaction!!! Thank you.
I love their rendition of The Prayer. Hope you are doing well.
Does it make me a bad person if I judge people by how they react to Pentatonix? Not every song or performance. Just certain songs and particularly certain notes. Mitch at 2:18 for example. If you know pause, remark, smile, drop your jaw, roll your eyes or ha e some indication that you heard or felt the majesty of that moment. Sure some get thru it and make complementary remarks which is fine. You be you. I just make mental notes of those who hear it and have a visceral reaction because you are my people ✌️💚
I would suggest I Saw 3 Ships on their new Evergreen album. It is amazing! It’s like a White Winter Hymnal 2.0 with snaps & claps! You could do a double reaction!
Haven't been on for a while and I have missed hearing the reactions. I love watching the reactions when the reaction is done by someone who knows what they are looking and listening for. You are one of the ones I look forward to watching and listening to. The expressions on the face tell you almost as much as what is said. You can't hide pleasure and enjoyment. You are one of my favorites to watch. Thank you.
Thank you Jean. That’s so kind of you to say ❤️
This is my new favorite song, and PTX performance, ever. I mean, they just crushed Celine Dion, the queen! Anyways, loved your reaction as always!
Thank you coach for giving us a very nice explanations.
Evergreen has, this year, been nominated for a Grammy. Thankfully! They deserve it far more than the other artists nominated. Hearing Mitch live is just 😲 and then some. Last year was absolutely astounding hearing so many of the new and old songs and this year was like I was a kid in the PTX library and could pick ooooollllddd songs! I feel like Mitch's voice can literally be so light and angelic and embody Celine Dion. The video is set just right for this song.
I love watching your reactions. When Pentatonix was on the SingOff, the judges wondered how much new stuff or "tricks" they had left and they have certainly entertained us with their ability to change things up, just when we think we 'know' them. I appreciate their arpeggiations that sound so often like the plucking of the strings of an instrument. But in this performance, their beginning was different and the background singers sounded like delicate sound ripples across a musical pond instead of the string-plucking. It was the perfect fit for this song and I love being amazed all over again!
Let's talk about Kevin, holding down the fort
I would still love you to react to their rendition of the Sugar Plum Fairy - no lyrics - just them and it's awesome (got them their 2nd Emmy? I believe?)
I love your reactions and your sense of humor! This song is now my favorite PTX song!
Loved your reaction. I enjoy watching you, because you break it down so that we can understand what you, as a music teacher, hears, and explains. I am of choir background, both school (from 7th grade to graduation) and church choir. I was the 1st teen, or kid, to sing with the adult choir. I was 13. Loved it. Still do. So, for me listening to you is the best thing ever. Keep teaching us. Thank you. 😊
Thank you for reacting to this. Please react to PTX Anchor & also you should look at Mitch’s side project Messer….very very different & very very good. Great reaction x
It's funny you got Disney vibes, this was in the movie, "Quest for Camelot". A girl has to rescue Excalibur from a traitorous ex-knight of the round table. The song was briefly in the movie and then in the end credits, performed by Celine Dion & Andrea Bocelli.
I knew this would be your Tonix Tuesday and I could t wait!! Work getting in the way!! Love watching your facial expressions….as well as your explanations!! 🥰🥰
It almost wasn’t! Super close to being claimed by the blocking bots.
@@TempleMusicAcademy when will they realize it helps their label?!?! Thanks for fighting the fight!!
I really wish you would check out a video of Kevin at Agee 17 at Carnegie Hall in a program called From the Top. You will learn how very intelligent he really is. What they don’t tell you is that he also speaks Mandarin.Along with the cello he also plays another instrument. I’ll let you discover what it is. I think you will really enjoy it!!!!
So glad you got to see this
The song was written by David Foster, and Carol Bayer Sager. It was in the movie Quest for Camelot, an animated movie. The best known version was sung by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli. Josh Groban also sang it, I think with Celine Dion.
This arrangement and performance is just stunning. I really can't think of another group (including Ben Bram their producer in this) that arranges better. They have been arranging at an extremely high level for 10 years now. For whatever reason they just understand how to do it effectively.
At about 2:50 they hit that huge chord and it just sounds like an organ.
Disney comment was spot on since this written by David foster and carol bayer sager for the Disney movie quest for Camelot
Mitch is amazing 😮
Your comment about the Disney Vibe is right on the money. This song was originally written for a Disney movie and released in English and Italian.
Kirstie's vibrato also gives me a Dolly Parton vibe. Enjoyed the reaction.
Being watching reaction's to this ptx video so i care see people lose their mind over Scott baritone voice...and italian lyrics 🤣🤣❤️❤️
The only member who was not mentioned was Matt. He was strong and steady underneath it all.
Your intro and exit music is awesome
Thanks!
That was Insanely , beautifully, stunning. Glad to be back in country!!! Hey community peace and Love all!
We’ve missed you Dave!
Can we plz talk about Matt and his bass giving me chills through the whole song.
I believe it has that Disney movie vibe because it was originally written for the non-Disney animated film Quest for Camelot.
I LOVE this group.
I’ve mentioned before, but I really think you would enjoy their cover of Charlie Puth’s “Attention”.
And 21 Pilots “Ride”, which is live.
Also, “I Saw 3 Ships” off of their new Evergreen album. It’s just audio, no video, but well worth the listen.
Thanks for keeping up with Tonix Tuesday’s. I look forward to it every week!
and now the album this was on is nominated for a Grammy!! Here comes #4
Goosebumps...every single time.
went through your PTX videos, how did you miss the epic live performance AHA! Star Vista Singapore?
I loved your reaction! Would love for you to explain how Mitch's amazing vocals in the highest of his register are NOT falsetto (if that's true). I don't think he's singing in falsetto, but I heard one or two reactors say that he is. Can you explain the difference? Please educate me! As to another cover to react to, an oldie but fantastic: O Come All Ye Faithful !!
I don't think it was Disney, but it was a song for an animated movie named "Quest for Camelot" about a girl who wants to be a knight and a young blind man going on a quest to find Excalibur after it's stolen from Arthur. It's actually a rather sweet movie and this song is perfect for it.
At some point t before christmas, the 12 days of Christmas is a MUST!
You should react to Home Free “brothers in arms”. It’s AWESOME
You're speechless.
When PTX did this song with Victoria Brinker DJ you said Scott and Mitch should do this as a duo, do you remember that? Well here you go.
Thanks for the great reaction.
Did you notice that the setup for the song made it seem that the lyrics would start with Kirstie singing, by making her disappear behind a tree, but it was Mitch that reappeared and started singing. Anyone who knows the vocal range of Mitch would expect this, but the deception (too strong a word, but no other word is accurate to this situation) is aimed at someone familiar with the Dion / Bocelli version but is NOT familiar with Pentatonix.
I don't know if you've heard of Superfruit yet, but I'd love for you to react to their "Hip Hop Goes Broadway" videos. It's a channel by Mitch and Scott so technically it could fit into Tonix Tuesday.
I've seen other reactors decrease the opacity of the video so you can see the artists better and the videos aren't getting blocked.
I love your reactions, and I love PTX. But have you reacted to Citizen Queen? Another great group, another fun rabbit hole of great music. Scott from PTX helped put them together and they toured with them last time. Maybe start with "evolution of girl groups"? Awesome female baritone!
I would love it if you would react to two Mitch Covers: “Find You” and “Graveyard”. He sings pretty low for him, and I love his voice sooo much when he’s singing with his natural voice!
I am surprised as a music teacher you did not comment about the kettle drum work.
What the bell is that intro background song that guitar and drums that got my attention
It wasn't Disney but Warner Brothers and it was in the animated movie Quest for Camelot. Celine Dion sang it in English and Andrea Bocelli sang it in Italian then they sang it together in English and Italian. Pentatonix did this song justice. I prefer the original but I will listen to both. I can't pick a favorite.
Thank you for another awesome Tonix Tuesday. Their version of the song is amazing. They made a Behind The Scenes video for it. No need to react to it but here is a link to the BTS video: th-cam.com/video/jvVW0DtlAsg/w-d-xo.html . Enjoy.
For a change up in style, try Scott singing I Should Tell Ya Momma on You; it’s hilarious and amazing at the same time.
The irony of that statement is that this was originally done by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli.
Try Flotsam and Jetsam's "Burn the Sky"
Please consider swapping the big/small pictures when you have to blur the music video. I’d really have liked to see your reaction/expression better. Love your reactions.
Please do Havanna, thats my favorite 🥰
We need more baritone Scott..... Italian or not!
1:56 that's cause it is a Disney song. Quest for camelot. That was a Disney movie, was it not? I might be mistaken on that part
You didn't have to blur this. If you're critiquing it (along with talking through it and pausing video at times) it's fair use. And your window overlapping the video's window is enough to counter a copyright claim for good measure, too.
👋👋
The original song was written by David Foster and Carol Bayer Sager for the 1998 animated film ‘Quest for Camelot’.
Look forward to Tonix Tuesday every week. I have a question the copywrite blur. I asked another TH-camr about it because some of her videos stop for a few seconds saying copywrite will be right back, others TH-camrs theres no pause at all, or like yours the video is blurred. She said she's still trying to figure that out. Thoughts??
This music is perfect from Mitchel and Scott, damn.. and the high range of Mitchel 6:32 is the another world.. ty for the amazing react buddy. I have a new video for you, th-cam.com/video/jdAdmmEPplg/w-d-xo.html a hug from Brazil...
Hi:) could you do Elon by fauozia next?? It’s a great one she sang at the end of her live concert! You should also check out tears of gold again (the live concert one) and hero (the orchestral version). Love your videos btw!!
th-cam.com/video/NX5ej13xVqg/w-d-xo.html
Please check out The Bass Gang. They are an acapella group made up of 4 bass singers their cover of Emperor's New Clothes has a 17 year old (Marwan Ayman) hitting B0.
I don't understand why yours got blurred. I have seen many other reaction channels do this video and they didn't have to blur their's. It just seems weird to me how some channels can show the video and some channels can't.
Great reaction to a beautiful cover ! I want to encourage you to go down another rabbit hole... react to Mat and Savanna Shaw. A Father and daughter duet. Their first song was The Prayer. It came out at beginning of pandemic. They've gained a huge following for good reason !! If you haven't heard them... I promise it will touch you !!! Newer subby to your channel !!!
The irony of your Celine Dion comment is she did the original...along with Andrea Bocelli.
Who knew Heinz made mustard.
😂😂😂
PLEASE, React MARILIA MENDONÇA- PASSA MAL (TODOS OS CANTOS). She died earlier this month in a plane crash, she was only 26 years old.TODOS OS CANTOS is a project she did, she went to ALL the capitals of Brazil to give a free concert to fans who couldn't afford to buy tickets for her concerts. She is very dear in Brazil.
Is the vibrato someone has to try to do? Cause, I have to try to not do it usually. I got yelled at for it in choir. XD
Muscle memory can play a role. Maybe you’re just really good at it ;)
Funny that you mention Disney - the song is originally from the Disney movie Quest for Camelot! And yes, the iconic version was a duet between Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli - here, Mitch and Scott. I love what you said about their musical support for each other. My husband and I think the last high note was actually Kevin at the very top, in his crystal-clear falsetto - what do you think?
It wasn't Kevin. Scott gave a short interview about the song. A part I thought was the trio was just Scott and Kirstin. It was in a live on his insta.
Not Disney, actually. It was Warner Bros Feature Animation, released in 1998.
@@tammymoseley1348 😳Oh dear, thanks for catching that!
Nope. It was Mitch. You can see him singing it, and he shows his brilliant control of the high note by singing it with a straight tone - soooo difficult!
It's strange. Their voices are stunning as always and the harmonies perfect.
But this song has never caught on with me.
Originally recorded by Andrea Boccelli and Celine Dion. ❤️🎶
