    You should also check out their *amazing* performance of 'Bohemian Rhapsody'! You'll have problems believing what you're seeing/hearing!

      In their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody, Mitch does vocal effects to simulate Brian May's lead guitar lick in the original recording. Mitch is holding a megaphone. But from what I've read, Mitch is actually doing the simulation with his voice and the megaphone is just a prop.

      this... isn't 100% true.
      Kevin uses electronic drum pads... otherwise the sounds of his slaps and stomps wouldn't be loud enough. While anyone with 1/2 a brain can understand the necessity, it also means that with the inclusion of the pads it's not longer 100% A Capella

    • @DougRayPhillips
      @DougRayPhillips 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I've read that they do amplify some sounds in the studio, so that it's not quite the same as their live work. Could be Kevin's, Mitch's, anybody's.
      Drum pads... now, that'd be beyond the scope of what I'm aware of. If y'all are sure, okay.

    Hallelujah was written by Leonard Cohen and is not Gospel. He refers to Biblical stories such as David and Bathsheba and Sampson and Delilah, but the lyrics veer away after that. You pretty much have to listen to the entire song and reach your own conclusions about what it means and what it means to you. It is one of the most covered songs because of its beauty. There are several great covers, but PTX's is definitely one of my personal favorites.

    • @michellecole6325
      @michellecole6325 4 ปีที่แล้ว +65

      You're right! I'm constantly suprised that people think of it as a religious song. Yes, there are references, but it's essentially a "love gone wrong" song. Of course, the 4 verses included here are the ones most often sung, but Mr Cohen wrote over 70 verses to it and some of them are kissing cousins to raunchy. I think most people don't really listen to/analyze the words: they just really don't make sense in any sort of religious context.

    The song was composed by Leonard Cohen from the Vietnam era. Their fullness is so illusory. For background, look up their work on "Sing-Off" where they exploded on the world of music. Now, three Grammies later they are one of very few DEFINERS of a capella music. If you like religious music, try "Mary Did You Know" and get ready to be blown away by their ability to harmonize smoothly and efficiently.

    You gotta check out "Mary Did You Know" by Pentatonix. They chose a cave system as the backdrop and the accoustics are tremendous. I really can't tell if they recorded there or in a studio, but it could be either at points. With quality headphones you can hear the wind whispering through and a slight echoing. Plus, you get to hear Kevin (the percussionist/beatboxer) deliver his angelic voice as well. And, it is also a Christian based song. They have also done "Little Drummer Boy" and many Christmas carols.

    "Hallelujah" as others have said is a pop song written by Leonard Cohen in 1984 that didn't really gain notoriety until it was covered by Jeff Buckley in 1994. Then its popularity exploded and it's considered one of the most covered pop songs in music history (if not the most covered pop song). There are a few really noteworthy covers like Buckley's and John Cale's (which was featured on the Shrek soundtrack and introduced the song to the younger generations), but its one of those songs where you would be more surprised a pop artist DIDN'T do a cover of it at some point.
    Since the song really lends itself to a more stripped down approach, most covers tend to be really sparse, where the singer just performs it solo with a single instrument. Usually it's a guitar, but I think I've heard renditions with a piano or a violin. Pentatonix's version is a bit unique since it feels faster and grander than most covers, especially ones like Buckley or Cale's where it sounds more like the singer is musing to themselves or speaking to a specific person.
    The meaning or emotion conveyed also tends to vary from artist to artist. There's an overarching sense of loss, but what kind of loss is usually up to the artist, and Cohen had said in multiple interviews before he passed that "there are many different hallelujahs" and that he was proud the artists who covered the song had picked up on that. For some, the song is about personal loss, romantic or sexual loss, the loss (or the gain through loss) of faith, or the loss of respect or trust. It's truly an every person's song because every person can find something in it they identify with.

    I love this song and these wonderful artists. One of my favorite songs. However there is an Easter version of this song by a couple of young girls that is beautiful and I wish PTX would perform it!
    PTX sing several gospel type songs that are so amazing. A favorite spiritual song of mine they sing is “Mary Did You Know” written by Mark Lowery. So much emotion they cause to swell up in the heart!
    Thanks for your reaction! Loved it.

    They had a Christmas special one year and they sang this live in front of an audience and it practically sounded the same! The Pentatonix pride themselves in creating all of the musical sounds by only their voices and nothing else. I watched them live before and man, they sound no different from their TH-cam videos...freaking amazing! They have already won 3 Grammy awards and are considered the best acapella group in the world....

    When they do that in the studio they can do it closer to the mic so it sounds more real but it is definitely all him, Kevin!

      They, Pentatonix, were founded 2011. And there is nothing by PTX that will disappoint. Amazing Grace(My Chains are broken) will take you to church and put you on your knees.

    You have to check out the best vocalist from down under John Farnham singing the Beatles song "Help" live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. His vocals are crazy and he's an entertainer, the way he interacts with the crowd is awesome. John Farnham is an Aussie icon.

    Gospel music is your genre then you got to watch David Phelps’ Oh holy night, the one where he wears a green sweater kind of an out fit. He’ll blow up your mind half way through the song and the second half is phenomenal.

    I personally love "Daft Punk Medly" and "Love Again" by Pentatonix. I'm a musical amateur but goodness, I have to appreciate this group so much.
    I would also love to share "Home Free" as an amazing acapella group. Avi is featured in "Ring of Fire" and it's sooo good.
    Happy watching!

    In most songs (almost all of them, this one included) the percussion relies on Kevin’s beatboxing abilities and the ocasional stomp/clapping you saw on the video. It’s really cool
    The bass also helps a lot sometimes
