Indeed, whoever reacts to Pentatonix the Pentaholics will follow. Your wife is probably laughing because she knew what was going to happen.
YUP, We are here!😍
Yes, if a reactor wants to up their subscriptions and views, just start reacting to PTX!!!!
Yes...we just appear out of the mist...😂😂😂😂
That is so true. Some reactors pause far too often, basically for no reason, except too sound clever. We all have ears. We hear what’s going on. How thick do they think we are???? But I love you you make me laugh and cry. 🫣🙏❤️🇬🇧🤷♀️🫣🙏🇬🇧🤷♀️🙏🙏🙏🙏
You are a riot! I only listen to you, time and time again. 😊😂 You and I have the same laugh, you poor guy. You actually make me laugh out loud. Thank you 😅
Welcome to the rabbit hole! Yes, we Pentaholics are always looking for fresh faces to watch as they become astonished, amazed, and eventually fall in love with this amazing band! As you get to know them, you discover they are the sweetest, most humble and down-to-earth people ever.
The best rabbit hole! And yessss this rabbit hole most def leads to Wonderland!!!!!!!!!❤
And we Pentaholics due tend to come out of the woodwork in mass...
We are Pentaholics and we always show up. That’s just who we are! Welcome to PTX! I know exactly how your wife felt. I live for that feeling. Much love from South Africa!
Hi there saffa
Avi is an amazing artist. His solo work is absolutely incredible. You will love it. You could start by Change on the rise that has a Viking vibe for me.
Yes!!!! Oh please react to "Change on the Rise"
Please and thank you 😅😉
I came here to say the same thing. Otherside too. His solo stuff is amazing. He also did Black is the Color of My True Love’s Hair which completely shows off his lower register.
Just listened to "Change on the Rise" for the first time and I absolutely love it. Huge Avi fan
Tee hee, sorry if we overwhelmed you (not really). To be fair to your wife, PTX is way at the other end of the spectrum from metal, so … I am very happy you enjoyed this one too! For more divine inspiration, check out Amazing Grace. As you see more PTX, one thing to remember is that they have had only one change in their line-up, when Matt replaced Avi as the bass in 2017. Mitch’s and Kirstie’s looks change and evolve, but it’s always them. Welcome to the family, it’s great to have a Viking on board! Peace from Ohio …
The best saying ever... if the reactor forgets to talk...... nice... and the best compliment to a performance ever.
Saw them do this live this week in New Zealand and I wept buckets as was on my chemotherapy playlist, Pentatonix helped me through so to see them live whilst in remission was a dream come true.
So happy to hear you're in remission, Mandy! Great story 🤗
@@dorindas7330 Thank you, on 12th July I reach my 5 year remission date, date of diagnosis being counted as day 1. Planning to celebrate big time.
I will 2nd, 3rd and 4th all the suggestions to watch Avi's solo music! Change on the Rise is a must, and to really experience Avi's beautiful lower register check out Black is the Color of my True Loves Hair with Peter Hollens. As for PTX Christmas music most of us listen to it all year long it is that good.
Love this song by them.❤
LOL ... we Pentaholics are a pesky bunch, but we're loyal, and cute too! I laughed when you said they have "few" Christmas songs. Five albums full (or maybe it's six now), most have gone platinum and at least one double platinum. You'll need the entire month of December, at two a day, and you'll still miss a few.
Might have to include a Christmas in July special just to get a jump start on them🤣
Their cover of "Amazing Grace/My Chains Are Gone" is more moving by leaps and bounds over "Hallelujah" and their cover of John Lennon's "Imagine" is truly inspirational...
Can't wait for more reactions, especially the Christmas ones!!! And please give Avi's solo work a try, start with Change on the Rise.
Will do!!
Yes definitely, Avi's solo work is amazing...you can't go wrong with anything
Yes completely agree Avi is fantastic! You won't be disappointed.
@@VikingReacts When Avi is singing his lead Scott (tall blonde) takes over the bass!! Scott is a baritone with a wide vocal range. He also easily hits high falsettos.
@@Bonofox1 Spot on. I love Scotts voice.
The fact that you kind of accidentally fell down this rabbit hole makes your reactions that much more fun to watch. I am going to enjoy your reaction to every song of Pentatonix that you listen too. You are in for a great ride.
Great reaction - love how taken aback you were when the Pentaholics came along for the ride! Did you notice that when Avi was singing his solo, Scott (tall, blonde) took over the bass line? They all have five or six octave ranges. This one is stellar, that's why it has over 700 million views. Well done on the names you already know! The two others are Scott and Kirstie. This has one of the best Mitch slaps too!
I was wondering if they layered the bass at that moment to be honest. But this is even better!
@@VikingReacts They won’t record a song that they can’t do live. There is a live Christmas special version of this cover out there. Enjoyed and subscribed for more Pentatonix! And go easy on your wife, maybe she wanted them all for herself! Lol.
@@VikingReacts there's a (very popular and easy to find) live version of this song from a Christmas concert and you can actually see Scott jump in on the bass line over Avi's shoulder.
Her name is Kurstian or for short Kursty ( pronounced like thirsty ) . Did not know if your spelling was just a spell check correction or not so , just correcting the info. Nice to see the Pentatonix are still here. Cant wait, this is going to be interesting as we introduce him to the pentatonix rabbit hole.
@@VikingReacts You can listen to their LIVE performance of it . Yep, they do it live. Enjoy .
PTX is the ONLY group/band that I can still be brought to tears listening to some of their songs for the 1000th time! ❤️ Also can give me chili bumps over and over again!
I don't know how many times that I have watched this video I love it ❤❤❤❤
Great reaction, in case that you didn’t notice, Scott cover for the bass when Avi was singing, his range is impressive
I enjoy watching people reacting to the Pentatonix because I get to see a new fan born by the end of their song. This is the first song that f theirs that I watched and till today it is still my favourite. Welcome to the club. 😀👍
Great "Mitch Slap" moment welcome to the rabbit hole, great reaction to the video also. Pentatonix fans love to see the reactions to people new to Pentatonix, reminds them of the first time they heard the group.
Welcome to your first Mitch slap. His clear, pure tones and high register are favorites. But I know you are becoming fond of Avi as well, so you might want to see Light in the Hallway, which is an original lullaby written by Scott to his nephew. Avi's tender voice with the group backing him up is so beautiful and a great way to hear more of his solo work.
Pentatonix has a song written just for you based on your comments - esp at the beginning of your reaction to Bohemian Rhapsody. "Love Me When I Don't" will profoundly impact you and may even reduce you to tears.
When Avi is singing in the beginning, Scott is doing the bass. You should watch this song from their Christmas TV Special about 5 yrs ago. You can see him doing bass.
If you have any doubts about their ability to perform this as it sounds, check out their live performance of this song on their televised Christmas Special. It sounds nearly identical to this, except that they are all mic's so you can hear each group member more clearly. Amazing!
This piece of music grabs you by the scruff of the neck and shakes you apart then puts you back together. The amazing thing is the number of different arrangements in this song. Each verse is a specific arrangement. More amazing is that the Chorus is sung 6 times and each of the 6 is a different arrangement than the other 5.
It's hard to beat perfection...
You should check out Avi solo, he really shines there! Change on the rise is a good place to start but really everything he’s done is great. If (hopefully when) you listen to him it’s good to know that his voice is the only one you’ll hear, he does the harmonies and everything. Yes, he’s a fantastic bass but he’s got a huge range.
Loved your reaction! Pentatonix is a fantastic musical journey. Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole. They have a catalog of over 300 songs (their covers are amazing and their original music is even better) They are all amazing song writers and arrangers. And, then there are the solo projects of the members that are all spectacular too. I subscribed to follow more of your PTX discovery. This won't be the first time you get goosebumps and tear up :)
This is my favorite version of this song by far and away. They capture the emotions that I think so many artists miss in their covers. I cry almost every time. Also, if you liked this one, you HAVE to listen to their cover of Sound of Silence. That's another one that touches the heart.
I love your genuine reactions and love for music in these two videos! And I LOVE that your wife set you up for this while you innocently thought you were just making her happy listening to a song you like. 🤣
So many just react to Pentatonix for the views, but reactions like yours are the best.
Thanks for the dopamine! 😉
I'm so happy you've done a reaction to this. I'm looking forward to more!! May I suggest...Imagine, Radioactive ( feat Lindsey Sterling, and Kevin brings his cello), Love Again ( original), New Rules/Are You That Somebody, Run To You (original), or your own choice from their 200+ library.
And if you ever doubt this performance. Watch it live. I cry every time.
Recommend their Sound Of Silence. It has their current bass, Matt.
You nailed the reaction. And to really be blown away, PTX's live performances of this song is a must listen to. Talk about chills!! Welcome to PTX & their rabbit hole!
When reviewers put themselves in the corner instead of making all of us watch a tiny box, that makes me happy. Good job 👍.
Beautiful version, and those harmonies…. just amazing 😀
Glad to see some of the established vikings watching this as well :). And I agree!
Great reaction! This song is recommended because it shows all the group members singing individually (except Kevin). And because it's beautiful. I really think you would enjoy Avi's solo music. It's very different from PTX but so good. Change on the Rise is a great place to start! Cheers!
Love your reaction 👍 they're amazing 😍 there are so many other mind blowing songs... Gold by Kiara, more intime and live ! wonderful 😍 don't forget to check their originals. Popspring Special 2016 is 3 original songs and one medley, 15 minutes of joy, and they're live in Japan ! Hope to see you react to more of them and also Avi's solo work, he's a genius with the most beautiful voice, range ... Everything 😍 thanks 😘
This song has some deep personal meaning and every time I hear PTX's version I can't help but cry.
The first time I listened to Pentatonix was when my daughters were listening to them and I was hooked. They were amazing then and still amazing now. I miss Avi but they found a treasure with the new one and he is amazing also. I love Pentatonix! My daughters were in their early teens when they first heard them and went crazy over them and I am now 73 and still love them. Their harmony is beautiful and I love listening to them. One of these days I am going to order some of there albums or tapes so I can listen to them all I want. They sing beautifully and I lave to just sit and listen. You are in for a treat. They have my gratitude for making such beautiful harmony and I thank them for such beautiful music.
Amen to that! I have recorded a few reactions that still need to be made into a video as I just couldn't stop listen and discover new Pentatonix songs. In one of them I mentioned that I just want to hug each and every one for the joy they bring to me in some of my darker days. It is a special gift that was bestowed upon them and I am glad they recognised it as such!
Stay strong and keep the musical heart alive! I hope to see your comments for a long time to come :)
Ok, if you want more Mitch wtf moments, you want The Prayer (a newer one, with Matt Sallee as the bass). I agree Avi's solo work is great as well, and I do miss him but I also love Matt's warm rich tone and sheer joy.
I do also think their Daft Punk medley will blow your freaking mind though.
😂😂😂
Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole. We love our reaction videos and seeing new comers fall in love with them.
Falling in love...achieved :P
My wife loved this song and I had it played at her funeral..the tears flowed from everyone including the celebrant.
I warned you about the Pentaholics... 🤣
I'm glad to take this journey with you.
Goosebumps always mean the music is touching something
"If you build it, they will come!!!!! If you love PTX, you are one of us.
Maybe I'm not the first one but you need to listen to that song in a live version. You'll notice that while (here) Avi takes the lead Scott actually goes back and takes over the bass line its really incredible to see live
Had to chuckle a little with your story about your wife. If she's been a fan of Pentatonix for a while, and has ever seen a reaction to them on TH-cam, they she knew full well that "if you react to them, the Pentaholics will come!" She would have just been waiting for the flood of comments and subscriptions to arrive!
On your Mitch-slap: while Mitch is stretching himself in this song, he's certainly not straining (I'm not sure I've ever even seen him straining to hit a note), and he's got plenty more where those notes came from.
You already mentioned Daft Punk, which I would highly recommend. It's about as different from Hallelujah as you can get, and it won Pentatonix (aka PTX) their first of 3 Grammy awards. One video that might not catch your eye but I think you'd probably enjoy is the live version of Hallelujah they did on their 2016 Christmas TV special. It's got one sequence that's especially interesting: when Avi starts his solo verse, you can clearly see Scott behind him picking up the bass line that's impossible to see in the official video, because they never show a closeup of Scott while Avi is singing his solo. Since the video is cut from a TV special, the audio and video quality are quite good, and it was filmed in front of a live audience, so you can get some of the feel for their live performances.
Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole!
Nice Mitch-slap! Five singers, five distinctive voices that blend to make intoxicating harmonies. Kevin sings as well, although there's no beatboxing when he's singing, so they save it as a secret weapon. Edit: subscribed for more Pentatonix!
I'm in my 70s and I've been watching the series, Merlin again. fabulous you'd love it. Now in Merlin, there is a cave and he is informed this is where Magic began.
To me, when Pentatonix came out that line came into Mt head... this is where the magic began.
I have watched Merlin a few times. The young warlock who never seems to want to listen to that damn dragon ;)
Leonhard Cohen heard this rendition of his song, shortly before he passed. He said it was the best he had ever heard.
Thank you to his awesome wife for asking him to listen. 😊❤
I love that you have the volume turned up. Way too many reviewers play the videos with such low volume that it's a struggle to hear. With yours, Avi's bass radiated down my spine, and Kirstie & Mitch blew my ears off. Keep up this great work.
Suggestions for next songs to review (first with Avi still in the group_ - 1) Daft Punk Medley, (Grammy award) 2) Radioactive (with Lindsey Sterling), 3) Wizard of Aahhs (with Todrick Hall), 4) Say Something, 5) Imagine 6) Run To You (Original). Matt Sallee took over bass when Avi left the group (amicably, to spend more family time and pursue a solo career). His first song with PTX was "Sound of Silence". Others to review - 1) Amazing Grace/My Chains Are Gone, 2) Come Along, 3) When the Party's Over, 4) Havana, 5) Coffee in Bed (Original), 6) Can You Feel the Love Tonight, 7) Shallow, 8) Be My Eyes (Kirstie Original), 9) Thank You (Scott Original, 10) The Prayer.
Their song list is close to 300, so there are many more to keep you busy for quite some time. Every cover is an UPGRADE!
Took me a bit to get it right. I still put a lot of effort in making sure the audio of both me, the band and all the background sounds match and don’t overshadow one another. I’m very happy to see this being noticed and appreciated :)
Oh and I placed all suggestions in my list to keep track of it ;)
They sound like angels!
When I first saw this video, I rewind it 5 times looking for instruments. Thank You for reacting to Pentatonix.
So glad you are enjoying doing PTX. We Pentaholics won't be satisfied until you have done them all!
This is one of their very best.
When you check out the Christmas music, The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy won them a Grammy! Orchestrational music by an acapella group won a Grammy.
New subscriber here…TH-cam does a good job of alerting us Pentaholics when new reactors pop up. PTX won their first Grammy for their mashup of Daft Punk songs. You mentioned you saw ‘a few’ Christmas songs on their list…I think it’s 7 albums worth so plan to start those early next November. Welcome to the rabbit hole!
Edited to add, if you’re looking to be uplifted, there’s Amazing Grace and The Prayer. I’ve heard both of those a hundred times or more and they still bring me to tears.
Really wonderful reaction!
I feel the same way when I listen to them, too! Can you react to their cover of "Imagine" next??? =)
It is definitely on the list ;)
Kevin sings, beatboxes, does effects,, & plays cello. I forgot he also writes songs.
What makes this a Christmas or church song for you? It's a song about a heartbreaking love affair composed by a Jewish priest (a Cohen).
* It has a Hebrew title.
* It is written from the perspective of Israel's King David, the murderer, adulterer, harpist, and poet.
* It includes Jewish Scriptural references.
* And the "cold and broken hallelujah" HAPPY ENDING only comes after a little BDSM in the kitchen chair.
Not neccesarily a church song. Something that reminds me of church songs as the exclamation Hallelujah is used in our church as well for both song and ritual.
The more you hear Mitch, the more you'll realize that his range isn't actually what makes him so phenomenal. It's an attention-getter for sure, but it's his control and precision that really makes him such a special voice and talent.
He has a very honest voice. No strain whatsoever and clear as day!
This is an awesome version, and when Avi and Mich come in BOOOOOM my heart is pumping so fast. 💞💞💞💞💞💞
Yeah--we are all card-carrying Pentaholics. We live for first reactions. And for reactors first Mitch slap. When the bass (Avi, and later Matt) is singing, Scott (tall blonde) takes the bass line. Enjoy the ride!
The first time I heard this version from Pentatonix, I cried like a baby 😢😊It's always been a favourite song of mine, but I've NEVER been so moved by it........ I'm so glad to see it causes that reaction in many others ❤
How I love watching people react to these amazing voices. God almighty the talent. I weep listening to them.
People sometimes don't realize Scott(the blond guy)does the bass when Avi has a solo.
Great reaction, I loved the genuine enjoyment that you shared in this reaction. Pentatonix is awesome of course but Avi is absolutely amazing. You should look into his solo work." Change on the Rise", "I'm only getting started", "When I'm a fool" and "First place I go" are too amazing to miss.
That was hilarious how you opened with how shocked you were by us Pentaholics coming out of the woodwork- but that’s just how we roll. Once you start doing PTX reactions, we’re more than happy to support both you and your channel. Peace! 🤘🏾
Loving your reactions. Found you through PTX reactions but your usual fare is close to my main preference so I'm going down a Viking / Nightwish rabbit hole right now! Suggestion for you #suggestion I recently dipped into PTX original stuff for the first time and I've been blown away - can't recommend "Love Again" strongly enough, would love to see your reaction to it!

PENTATONIX is outstanding. No one does it better than PTX. They are the best in the world.
Mitch is truly amazing. All of them are amazing, but Mitch is another monster entirely. I recommend checking out.. I think it's called Gold(Kiiara cover)? And the level of coordination and control of each member is astounding.
Welcome to the party! I'd suggest the Prayer (for that "divine" sense you mention), Daft Punk (for hearing the bass, beatboxing, and electronic music to the utmost!), and Imagine (for the Beatle fan inside!)
I love watching reactions to Pentatonix. Yes I watched you because of them. We really do watch everyone we see. I loved your reaction. Your wife knew what she was talking about lol
Even as Norse Pagans, we still remember our past lives, growing up i was in a Church Choir as well and Hallelujah was my all time favorite to sing too. People always ask why i left the Church and its because i became very lost and the Allfather found me and gave me purpose in life again.
Skál
Loved your reaction. Knew you’d like this one. It’s so special.🏆
When I first heard this rendition, I cried so hard and had to rub my legs, arms and scalp from all of the chill bumps. Since then, I watch reactors such as yourself, react and see them in wonder and awe. When I see this in the reactor, I get all of the emotions again. You made me cry again and I am grateful. That is why I love reactions.
The only song from them I WILL NOT listen to is the Little Drummer Boy. I have just completed my ninth year of winning the not hearing TLDB contest. So, if there’s a chance of hearing it, I will flee!
FYI - MUCH MORE MUSICAL GENIUS TO BE FOUND HERE:
Superfruit - they are Mitch and Scott from PENTATONIX
AVI Kaplan - first bass of PENTATONIX, solo work (as a Viking you MUST hear him perform Change on the Rise or you cannot enter Valhalla!)
Kirsty Maldonado - from PENTATONIX, solo work
Kevin Olusola - from PENTATONIX, plays cello, beat-boxes, tenor, producer etc., solo work
HOME FREE - 5 member acapella group (fans are HOME FRIES)
Tim Faust - from HOME FREE but doing his own thing (range is bass to falsetto), solo work
Austin Brown - from HOME FREE, high tenor, solo work
VOICEPLAY - 5 member acapella group
Jeff Castellucci - from VOICEPLAY, true basso profundo to falsetto he can do it all, solo work
DIMASH KUDAIBERGEN - Not acapella - Many say that this young man is the best singer in the world. I will say this: I have never heard a better singer and I probably never will. I suggest you react to S.O.S. and Sinful Passion first. Do not wear your favorite socks when you listen!
Take this journey for yourself but let us enjoy it with you. This music and these artists are magical. Every member of these groups are lovely, caring people and it shows in their spectacular talent. I have been walking this path for two years now. I am 68 and I lived through the musical magic that was the 1960's and 70's. This music was worth staying above ground to hear.
Be well, sir, Duke, an old retired vet living in Crazyland...FLORIDA USA!
😂😂just HERE for the Mitch slap😂😂👍👍
Great reaction! This song is amazingly beautiful and brought me to tears.
Don't worry about frequent pausing. It actually helps your videos to not get blocked😉 that is one of the hardest things to deal with with PTX reactions
People seem to think that it helps with the copyright. It does't however. Even a few seconds is enough to get flagged. After a few days the block gets lifted and the video can go live without me getting anything for it.
But I don't care to be honest. I could show you the list of videos and the amount of them that aren't eligible for ad revenue. Most of them. This channel is musical therapy and discovery for me and others. And that is perfect as is! Any ad revenue that I do get... just a bonus to get a gift for my kids or some chocolate for my wife ;)
You said you like the Beatles; so, you will love the Pentatonix's version of John Lennon's 'Imagine'. It is amazing!!
Great reaction. Thank you so much. We feel it too.
It was fun to watch you get emotional as the song went on. Certain Pentatonix songs just affect us that way. Sound of Silence and Imagine covers both do this to me as well. Other songs of theirs are just pure fun, like their medleys. particularly the Daft Punk medley. If you want to know how it all began, you might check out their performances on the tv show The Sing Off, where they came to national attention. This is where another big acapella group, Home Free, also got their big break. If you want to see what they are all about, you might start with their cover of Man of Constant Sorrow. BTW, Avi performs with them in a cover of the Johnny Cash song Ring of Fire.
Found a new PTX reactor!! Woo hoo 🎉 (seriously, doin my happy dance) Got another playlist to work through! Please keep reacting to PTX. We welcome new Pentaholic’s with open arms. Subscribed 🏴
I think you'd really like their cover of Tears for Fears "Mad World". th-cam.com/video/Md8kADJwMQ0/w-d-xo.html It' haunting and atmospheric. Another rare one is the sad ballad "My Heart with You" a cover from The Rescues. th-cam.com/video/4Eo2_vkVTU0/w-d-xo.html It's a real tear jerker. Like Mad World, it features all five members singing with no beatboxing. Finally, you might like their original EDM song (with no E) "Love Again". th-cam.com/video/F80FsZDTgn0/w-d-xo.html
Pentaholics are a phenomenon. Knowledgable, passionate, and nice. "Am I gonna get Mitch slapped?" Bet your ass!😆
I was very impressed! I've heard this so many times I can't count. Your reaction was a breath of fresh air. Your intro mentioned you had heard another piece before this one, so I went to your page and saw what it was. Big surprise! LOL! So, I watched your Bohemian Rhapsody before this. I knew coming in that you are more than "just" a metalhead... you appreciate musical excellence in many forms. SO... seeing how much you appreciated this version of Hallelujah made me happy. After this reaction, I looked back on your page because I'm a fledgling metalhead (still green behind my bleeding ears). I noticed you had reacted to Floor Jansen singing a solo version of Shallow. I listened to that. She was excellent, as was your reaction and comments. As you look more deeply into Pentatonix, you should check out the Pentatonix's version of Shallow. You can "compare and contrast" two really good covers (we Pentaholics prefer to call their covers 'upgrades') of that song. The PTX version allows Kirsten to shine, and holds another surprise for you as well. Sorry, no spoilers!! 😉 Again, great reaction... glad to have you starting the VERY rewarding a cappella journey! In time, I'm sure the journey will include Home Free, Voice Play, and Voctave as well. A cappella is a VERY deep rabbit hole!!! I'm a new subscriber AND like #1.1K +1
This may be my favorite comment yet… You seem to have grasped who I am and what I enjoy pretty fast. Your compliments humble me and I thank you for them!
@@VikingReacts I am pretty stingy with my compliments. I don't just flood everything with "Ooohh, that's so WONDERFUL." I am also occasionally critical. I try to be objective. For example, you will see a lot of people insist that these a cappella groups sound as good in person as they do in the studio. THat simply isn't possible. Even if they hit every single note of every single song perfectly, it still won't sound as good as a studio version. The acoustics, the mic mixing, the background noise... and other factors make live performances a cut below (from a purely objective musical sound standpoint). What live performances DO provide (that we can't get from the studio) is the 'feel.' The adrenaline, the excitement, the spontaneity. I was at a jazz fest once, and I saw Kenny G. on the schedule. I almost passed, as I considered him 'elevator music.' Man, that live performance just SIZZLED. Totally different live. Anyway, keep reacting to all kinds of great music... ANY genre. Be well!
Such a beautiful reaction man. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I don't know if anyone ever let you know, but during Avi's verse, Scott takes over the bass line. It's such a smooth transition between the two that most people don't catch it.
Pentaholic here, just found you reacting to Daft Punk. Love the way you react and how you notice nuances of their singing the first time through. Subscribed to see more.
Just found your channel for this recommendation! Glad to find a new reactor! Also FYI they just got their star on the Walk of Fame So happy for them to get the recognition they deserve!
What a fun reaction, they are all so talented and your enthusiasm is a joy to see.
Dan Vasc participated in a collab…5 guys sing “Hallelujah” on Caleb Hyles’ channel. (Jonathan Young, Peter Hollens, etc…) It’s just a still picture and sound, but you love the song so I thought it was worth mentioning.
Try The Prayer, Amazing Grace, Prayers For The World which is their latest song.
Yep, you were Mitch slapped 🤣. He still gets me every time. Avi Kaplan left in 2017 due to family illness. I listen to his solo work. I really liked the reaction so I'm a new sub. See you at the next one.
BOOM!!!! nice Mitch Slap reaction keep reviewing them they are AWSOME
You will be so wowed by their 🎄 Christmas music. Try "Carol of the Bells" & see how often Mitch takes a breath. . .or doesn't. 🥰
Goosebumps already and won't go away until they are done❤❤
Hell yeah making pentatonix reaction videos will make every channel explode lmao
Loved your reaction!! Welcome to Pentatonix! Can't wait to see more of your reactions to PXT. All the best from East Tennessee!
I find myself not breathing, and then gasping for breath every.single.time.I.hear.this.
