I know it's frustrating. Your feelings are shared by all PTX reactors. We understand it's not your fault and we thank you for plodding on. I always appreciate your reactions. I love this mix.
How did i miss this one??!! We know it's hard, it is their label that is sooooooo over obnoxiously protective...so we know. That human ping run!!!! Matt's bassline and Kevin's rhythm are SICK!!!!! That distortion by Matt!!!!! LOVE this!!! Great reaction man!! This gotta be one of my favs now.
Pentaholics understand how hard it is to upload, the main reason for blocks is showing the video. Dont show the video because we have seen those videos multiple times, were here for your reaction Thanks Matt
I think this is legitimately one of the best songs they've ever done, like, right there in the Top 10. If you're counting just their mashups, it's easily Top 5. And yet I feel like it's super underrated. It doesn't help that it was sandwiched between "Havana" (their first video back after a huge break) and "Attention" (which is also in the discussion for one of their best ever) when it was uploaded. 16M views almost seems like nothing for a PTX video, haha. Your reaction was tops, though, and probably mirrored a lot of us, lol. This was absolutely the first time Matt truly blew us away, as he was still new to the group at the time and the loss of Avi still hurt. I became a Matt fan for life after that breakdown at the end, just an absolute BEAST of a bass line. And of course Scott isn't praised hard enough for his bars and runs he sings on this song, he adds soooo much flavor as the single lead. I never get tired of this one.
Scott deserves a lot of credit in this song. The inflections of his voice are amazing. I’ve seen some reactors mirror PTX videos with writing over the top. Some do it in a way that it doesn’t totally cover up the video. Hang in there.
Another thing you could try with Ptx videos is swapping yourself for the big video and putting Ptx in the corner where you currently have yourself. It’s how most reactors have them on the screen. Pause more and maybe put text over the videos. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason as to what gets blocked and what doesn’t. Some reactors can get away with certain songs and others can’t and then will have certain videos for them blocked while yours of the same reaction stays up. I hope this doesn’t discourage you from still doing them. I know a ton of your subs are pentaholics.
I was waiting for that intro to knock the breath out of you, and it did. This is one of their most impressive ones. Kevin and Matt really get down. Matt is most impressive on the songs that came out after he joined PTX. I think because those bass parts play to his strengths. This song made me happy he had joined the group.
Pete Barber does a great break down of Matt's bass in his reaction/analysis. It gave me even more appreciation of Matt's abilities and that of the arranging. Keep up the good fight against strikes!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Love this one!! Matt and Kevin just SLAY this 🤯. Don’t give up PTX! Someone else also suggested that you should try making yourself the large screen and PTX the insert screen with text over it (like Blocked for Copyright) or make the insert translucent. No one will care as we would rather have you get your reactions out without excessive frustration! Plus we love you and don’t want you to experience excessive frustration. I don’t think PTX can do anything about it unfortunately. 💜
I love this mashup. Matt and Kevin kill the beat. New Rules is originally sung by Dua Lipa and the second song Are You That Somebody was originally done by Aaliyah in 1998. The beat the boys are doing are from the Are you that Somebody. Great reaction as always
Hang in there, we love your reactions. All the reactors have had this problem and I don't PTX can get their label to stop blocking reactors. We Pentaholics, have all seen the videos before so we don't mind if they are difficult to see. A lot of reactors make the video very small in the corner of the screen and put text over the video saying something like Copyright. They also make the video translucent which helps. Finally if you keep stopping especially near the beginning you should be able to stop them being blocked. If they do get blocked you can challenge it and eventually it should get unblocked. We don't blame you at all and just appreciate your persevering with this. It is a bit hit and miss as some reactors manage to do PTX reactions without problems but they are usually reactors with a very large number of subscribers. So just to say, keep going and we appreciate all that you do. Your reactions are awesome.
Hang in there. We know how,difficult it is Love you and this is fire. Story is Kevin was messing around and mixing these two,songs and Scott asked if they could do it for PTX and here we are
This video was filmed in NYC, while Kirstie was playing on Broadway in Kinky Boots. She couldn't get away to do the filming, so the rest of the group came to her!
Btw,this was also the first video with Matt in the group that made me stop and take him seriously... Up until this song I hadn't given him enough love either...this track seriously crushes it and Matt & Kevin on this are fire!!😃thanks for not giving up on PTX videos...there IS hope,there ARE ways to get around the Copyrights and things,but honestly other good reactors will be the most helpful I think.it was mentioned by another person who I fully agree with.try reaching out to any of them.good luck & stay strong!! ✌
Just to clarify what the “x” in the title means - it is a mashup of 2 songs. PTX is masterful with mashups which I attribute to their time on the Sing Off ❤
Even on the sing off they were already head and shoulders above the rest when it came to mashups. All the other groups would just sing a bit of one song and then go into their 2nd song just singing two songs back to back clearly sounding like 2 different songs. Ptx would start one, weave the second one in go back to the first and then eventually sing both songs at the same time making it sound like only one song. Ben Folds was blown away by their cello green and Kelly Clarkson mashup and couldn’t tell when they were singing the two different songs
You might reach out to other reactors for clues. Check with Jacob Restituto, King Family (Dennis) Tea Time with Travis. Saucy Dad. They are all great guys and great reactors.
All these mentioned reactors are awesome and have found ways to make it work with the PTX stuff,I think its a great idea to ask them for their advice!!nice suggestion✌
Ask other reactors, get advice and tricks and who knows, you may find a great friend! Please don't give up. It's frustrating I know, but Pentaholics are die hard! We do appreciate your efforts. Thanks.
Across the board reactors are getting blocked with every label...just do yourself a favor & make their video smaller, a bit see through, & put your trademark or something in the middle & save yourself the frustration! We're here for your reaction not to perfectly see the video! It works Matt, we promise! Great job!
Yay, it got unblocked!! I think that's often how it goes, they block it and then unblock it. So the trick is to make them unblockable from the get-go. By the way, this song makes for an awesome gym/work-out song.
Too true! I love your reactions, so I feel your pain when the work you've done is removed. I would suggest you put your logo up over the screen tho partially block the view. Keep on trucking!
We know its frustrating but fliters seem to help other reactors (also listening to it twice extends the video but fools the algorithm). On another sweeter note, if you note how Mitch has nothing really crazy going on and Kirstie has her natural hair color. This was PTX's introduction of Matt to the audience. They released this and Havana and then there wasn't PTX for a bit. Then we discovered that Matt is a goof and brings a fun new energy and I think he and Kirstie theater kid nerd out together a lot.
Great song, great reaction! The beatbox battle in the into is Killer! Scott and Matt do a great job while Kirsty and Mitch harmonize so unbelievably incredable. And Kevin is unbelievable at perfection in keeping time, beat and rhythm, the glue that binds it all. They are seriously the pinnacle of a cappella! They each do what they do best! Just outstanding and totally amazing! Mash-ups and Evolutions are their forte with genius arrangements! Thank you for reacting to this. Have you reacted to Come Along? if not, I recommend it.
I understand from the context that you mean the "Evil Copyright Gods" (Thanks to Chris from Larryshair for that), but the only definitions of SME that I could find were "Society of Manufacturing Engineers" or "Sun Microelectronics"... but that's OK, I'm just one of those people who generally avoids using any kind of TLA. Hah.
A cool PTX video from 2019 that I hope you can react to is a brief medley of previously recorded Christmas songs but performed by a stop motion animated version of PTX. Animated Scott throwing a fit is adorable! The video is called "Pentatonix - An Animated Pentatonix Christmas Film". I hope you won't get blocked with this one.
I think you might just have to stick with it and wait like 30 days. There's another reactor who never pauses, doesn't use filters, or anything like that. I always wondered how his videos don't get blocked. But I'm pretty sure it takes over 30 days from when he uploads to when it's actually available. Also, where you have 'Matt Reacts!' on the screen, try centering that over the middle of the video. It won't block that much of the video and remember, we've all seen the video. We come for your reaction to it.
You could maybe let us see your blocked reactions without the video, most of us know the videos very well. I know it's not the same, but I would appreciate it. Send you much love from Germany ❤
I love u and your reactions. But just pause and comment a bit more. You will pass the copywriter. Just pause. We are all waiting for your commentary anyways 😍
Just a thought-I’m computer illiterate-could you video yourself reacting on an iPad or iPhone for example you could then post that doesn’t have the video on it? Then just add the music and while it may not match up perfectly, we will understand.
I know it's frustrating. Your feelings are shared by all PTX reactors. We understand it's not your fault and we thank you for plodding on. I always appreciate your reactions. I love this mix.
This is one of my favorite songs from them. The bass and percussion are excellent. The swells and bell tones are out of this world. Great reaction
Right there with you. Don't beat yourself up. We understand.
Great reaction. Thanks.
I told you this was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎶🎧
How did i miss this one??!! We know it's hard, it is their label that is sooooooo over obnoxiously protective...so we know. That human ping run!!!! Matt's bassline and Kevin's rhythm are SICK!!!!! That distortion by Matt!!!!! LOVE this!!! Great reaction man!! This gotta be one of my favs now.
❤❤ your reaction was just awesome 👏🏾! Just subscribed to your channel ❤
You definitely had a good time listening to this!!!
How can’t you!!
@@mattsreacts i have been watching them since their first show on the sing off.. the one That is my favorite is the one I'm listening to.
One of my favorites ♥️

PTX music always have that positive effect. Keep the faith, Matt! You are loved and appreciated

Matt x Kevin = 🔥🔥🔥 Great reaction, glad the music eased your frustration. Vocals, as always, perfection ... and those bell tones. 💜
Those bells are amazing! 💕

This video was filmed in NYC, while Kirstie was playing on Broadway in Kinky Boots. She couldn't get away to do the filming, so the rest of the group came to her!
Matt and Kevin just go off on this.
One of my favorites songs with all 5 contributing to the moon and back. It is a bop!

I love Matt in this the beginning of the break down when he shakes his head no and does the uh-huh kills me

I'm watching your reaction to Can't Help Falling in Love right now on TH-cam ♥️
Across the board reactors are getting blocked with every label...just do yourself a favor & make their video smaller, a bit see through, & put your trademark or something in the middle

What you car do is to distort the video, put some text to it, others have done this and we don't mind at all. We're here to listen to your comments
It seems it doesn't come up on TH-cam right away but it comes on a few days later
A few Reactors have just stopped doing PTX because of the excessive blocking. Which is sad.
Too true! I love your reactions, so I feel your pain when the work you've done is removed. I would suggest you put your logo up over the screen tho partially block the view. Keep on trucking!

MATT 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
KEVIN 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
SCOTT 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
KIRSTIE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
MITCH 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Poor Matt. This just isn't fair. Not the Copyright stuff, I mean Matt's bassline. I think it broke him.
You can just play & comment. Most of us have already seen them.
Great song, great reaction! The beatbox battle in the into is Killer! Scott and Matt do a great job while Kirsty and Mitch harmonize so unbelievably incredable. And Kevin is unbelievable at perfection in keeping time, beat and rhythm, the glue that binds it all. They are seriously the pinnacle of a cappella! They each do what they do best!

Some reactors seem to have success in flipping the image of the video so we see the mirror image. Pausing a lot also seems to work for many. 😊
I understand from the context that you mean the "Evil Copyright Gods" (Thanks to Chris from Larryshair for that), but the only definitions of SME that I could find were "Society of Manufacturing Engineers" or "Sun Microelectronics"... but that's OK, I'm just one of those people who generally avoids using any kind of TLA.

Try editing the video to blur it out and block the screen so that we cannot see parts of it. The you may be able to publish that reaction again
Sometimes edit your video with extra breaks so it's the first reaction but extra editting. Maybe make your face the bigger and PTX the smaller.
You could maybe let us see your blocked reactions without the video, most of us know the videos very well. I know it's not the same, but I would appreciate it. Send you much love from Germany ❤
Check out other reactors to see how they get them through..one just turns the screen oval..
I love u and your reactions. But just pause and comment a bit more. You will pass the copywriter. Just pause. We are all waiting for your commentary anyways 😍
Just a thought-I’m computer illiterate-could you video yourself reacting on an iPad or iPhone for example you could then post that doesn’t have the video on it? Then just add the music and while it may not match up perfectly, we will understand.
