They were on the Masked Singer when they originally did this song. You'd be doing yourself a favor finding the episode where they were unmasked and performed this the 2nd time on the show.
The performance on the Masked Singer has even more emotion in it. I think it is much better than this video.Either way, I love this cover of theirs.@@SaeedReacts.
@@melissacoviello2886 I agree, but I've seen reactors skip the reveal because PTX sang Creep earlier in the show. To me the reveal performance was the best because, not only you could see who was singing (yes us PTX fans knew), but the reactions of the people watching to their performance.
Brian Justin Crum also has an amazing cover of Creep that he performed on America's Got Talent. Brian was one of the singers who joined Superfruit for their cover of Rise that you reacted to recently. Yes, as others have said, PTX debuted this on the Masked Singer, sang it twice-once in costume and again after they were unmasked. It's not a capella. They have said that they went on the Masked Singer both because they thought it would be fun to do another singing competition show again since that's how they got their start, and because they thought it would be fun and a challenge for themselves artistically to be pushed to use music backing, instruments and production that were a part of that show in their arrangements. Unrelated--Scott just dropped a new video yesterday for another of his songs from his solo "Parallel" EP from last summer. It's for the song "Bubs", a sweet tribute to the puppy that he and Mark had for almost 3 years until he passed in January, 2023 from an aggressive cancer.
Great instinct. "Creep" is always a good choice. Thanks for the reaction. The live performance after they were unmasked on the show is pretty awesome. All of Pentatonix performances on the show were great, in my opinion. They were the California Roll.
As others have said, you must react to the live “unmasking” episode from The Masked Singer. It is so powerful to see, as well as hear, their emotions coming through.
Little bit of PTX trivia...in 2011 they competed on The Sing Off season 3, which they won. The trio of Mitch, Scott and Kirstie who sang together as kids, added Avi and Kevin and became PTX for the first time the day before the audition for the show. Twelve years later they appeared on the Masked Singer. They didn't win, though I expect that has more to do with the politics of letting a group win the The Masked Singer (singular), but that is neither here nor there. The trivia is this: pretty much the first-ever Mitch Slap took place in their Sing Off performance of "Dog Days Are Over" and his feature ended on him belting the word, "RUN!" His feature in "Creep" (their final performance on Masked Singer), also ended with Mitch belting "RUN!" I just think that is cool, no real reason.
This is a great song. Hits different when you wwtch it live. I think you should watch their Aha video and then rhen do Aha Live from Singapore. It is a fan video at a concert but it showcases Avi (who blew the speakers) and Mitch on 2 red bulls with jet lag! You should do the 2 together on the same reaction video. Watch the original first so you know what is going on in the live one.
Scott and Mitch had a side channel called SuperFruit, I have to explain all this so you understand, On there Scott talked Mitch into doing his favorite song from his favorite Broadway musical, the Play is called Wicked, the song is Defying Gravity. The play is the Wizard of Oz told from the perspective of the witches. In this song one witch Elphaba (strange name I know) is arguing with Glenda about learning how to be the first witch to fly on a broom. (the name Defying Gravity makes sense now). You kind of need to understand all of this to not only understand the song, but their "costumes". This song will give you an idea just how high Mitch can go, but I feel he can still go higher. th-cam.com/video/vdNSi07T5GQ/w-d-xo.html
I watched their performances on the masked singer 2023 and with the reveal they sang this. Absolutely great. Saeed you belong precisely here where you are needed and appreciated. Greetings from South Africa
This song had me in tears when I first heard Brian Justin Crum sing it on America's Got Talent. Before he is shown singing it there was a video with him explaining as a young gay kid how he felt. Also I can relate and of course with Scott who just got married this year to his husband Mark I thank you for your reaction!!
They did on Masked Singer…and it was it was so incredible to watch the audience reactions. They do have a video of all of their performances on it. Brian Justin Crum did this song on America’s Got Talent. He was one of the singers in Superfruit’s Rise.
Scott is impressive and so is Mitch in this song. Mitch is my favorite. Mitch befriended Kirstin at around 8 and Scott at around 10 and they all went to the same High School.. Scott offered some protection to Mitch from bullies as he is so tall and athletic. The worst bullying happened when both Scott and Kirstin left for college first as Mitch is almost a year younger. Mitch as bullied and teased for his high pitch voice. He was so traumatized that he lost confidence in singing and do not think anyone would want to listen to his weird voice. When he joined Pentatonic, he felt he would be a liability to the group and it took a long timeand lots of encouragement to regain his confidence
Falling in love (Elvis cover) and God only knows ( beach boys) are little known of or not played much. I’d love for you, and listeners to enjoy these two. As usual, they upgraded the ptx way. Enjoy
This is a prolonged Mitch Slap. It is more like we are the speed bag and he is repeatedly punching us. Here for it. It is just crazy that he can do that and he can do it so effortlessly. One of the best voices in music today.
Definitely go watch the unmasked performance of this. Or better yet, react to that one too LoL it just hits even harder when you see them sing it. For awhile I was hoping we’d get a longer version with an official video but guess that’s not happening since it’s been a year now.
Recommend their whimsical cover of Come Along. It alludes to a fantasy world and uses some terminology from the poem Jabberwocky. It’s meaning is open to interpretation, but I like the idea that they are fairies luring humans into the fae world.
Great reaction as always. Speaking of bullying, you may like Never Gonna Cry Again on PTX's Lucky Ones album. Mitch co-wrote and leads. No video but awesome song with great bass, too.
Totally agree! Love the passion of the performance after they were unmasked but hearing everyone, especially Matt's part still makes this my favorite version
Well that is a big coincidence (or not) Just recorded a reaction like 2 hours ago. Hope to get that one edited and uploaded tomorrow. Thanks for watching and have a great day.
I don’t know if someone else mentioned… the part that Mitch goes so high, Scott is harmonizing with him (more prominently) and then when Mitch vocally steps down, Scott goes to the high note (I believe same as Mitch was singing) listen again and you can hear the switch! 🤯
I love watching you react to PTX and see your real expressions and the love for music. If you think Mitch was high here you need to react to Pentatonix - Aha!, Singapore, The Star Vista. th-cam.com/video/aT2Nm4fYmI4/w-d-xo.html 0:02 / 4:02
Another individual got bullied and got told he wasn’t good enough. Please react to X Factor UK Audition Christopher Maloney’s rendition of The Rose by Bette Midler! You can clearly tell in the audition some people got to him and his confidence was shaken
Hello Saeed, Another Mitch slap for you! I saw that you also reacted to Aha at Singapore Vista - thank you!! I am so looking forward to seeing your reaction to that. Hope that you will do the other PTX performances on the Masked Singer. Reminding you about some recommendations - PTX covers of Take On Me and Come Along.
Yes, Mitch was bullied "because of his voice." Except that it probably wasn't because of his voice, that was just the "excuse" for it. Mitch and Scott are both gay, and they both came out of the closet in high school. Scott is tall, six feet four inches (1.93 meters), and he's a baritone. He certainly got some gay-bashing in high school, but not the way Mitch did. And there's a ridiculous stereotype that gay men have high voices, which Mitch's voice seemed to confirm. (Note that somehow Scott's baritone did nothing to dispel the stereotype; bullies aren't known for their great feats of logic.) It must have taken a huge amount of courage for Mitch to openly acknowledge that part of himself in high school; this is one of the reasons SuperFruit's cover of "Rise" is so compelling. When Mitch sings "I won't just conform, no matter how you shake my core, ’Cause my roots, they run deep" we think about Mitch being all alone in high school, with his two best friends off at college, having to stand up to the bullies on his own. It's a recipe for disaster; as of 2021, ten years after Mitch graduated, about 16% of LGBTQ+ kids in Texas and other parts of the southern United States reported that they had attempted suicide in the past year. In other parts of the U.S. that rate was 14%. And note that those are just the kids who actually tried to kill themselves and failed, about 44% had considered it and the report doesn't say how many succeeded.

One of the best covers of CREEP is by Haley Reinhart with Post Modern Jukebox. 122 million views don't lie. - th-cam.com/video/m3lF2qEA2cw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=w0soVLYDi4b2zHJs
Ok, this is the one song I've heard from Pentatonix that I don't like. It's a case of doing the wrong thing in the best possible way; their vocals are great, but having more than one person sing this, even as well as they did, is just a bridge too far for me. I do appreciate your reaction to it, and would really like to see what you think of my favorite versions: Haley Reinhart with Post Modern Jukebox, and Pau from The Warning.
They were on the Masked Singer when they originally did this song. You'd be doing yourself a favor finding the episode where they were unmasked and performed this the 2nd time on the show.
Will look this performance up. Thanks for letting me know
Please look up the compilation of all of their performances. It’s about 15 minutes but it’s so worth it to see all of them.
The performance on the Masked Singer has even more emotion in it. I think it is much better than this video.Either way, I love this cover of theirs.@@SaeedReacts.

@@karehelene oh absolutely, the reveal is the best. I love seeing them when they sing.
Just FYI, as mentioned below this was for the Masked Singer, so they did have instrumental backing if only to keep the suspense of their performances.
Thanks for letting me know.

There is a video of creep, look up Pentatonix Masked Singer all performances and reveal
Thanks for letting me know. Will look for that one.
The live version is even better!
I watched their performances on the masked singer 2023 and with the reveal they sang this. Absolutely great.

Beautiful rendition.
PTX has definitely created a community, both online and in person, because we all love them and accept each other. It's so AWESOME!
Great ear realizing Scott opened and Mitch soaring. For a newbie to PTX, with no video, you're doing great!
Thanks so much!

Will add these to my list. Looking forward to many more PTX songs.
And there's the Mitch Slap... or Punch.
This is a prolonged Mitch Slap. It is more like we are the speed bag and he is repeatedly punching us.
Here for it.
It is just crazy that he can do that and he can do it so effortlessly.
One of the best voices in music today.

Amazing. Thanks for watching.

They did this for the Masked Singer TV show and were required to have instrumental accompaniment.
Loved your very real reaction about hating bullies!
It's something that stays with you, right?
Great reaction as always. Speaking of bullying, you may like Never Gonna Cry Again on PTX's Lucky Ones album. Mitch co-wrote and leads. No video but awesome song with great bass, too.
Thank you for that recommendation. Will add it to my list. Looking forward to many more PTX.
Love this cover! Tied with my other favorite Creep cover by Haley Reinhart/Post Modern Jukebox.
I can't pick one - PTX, Brian Justin Crum, Haley Reinhart with Post Modern Jukebox. They are all great.
The Masked singer version is great, but you can hear everyone better, here.
Totally agree! Love the passion of the performance after they were unmasked but hearing everyone, especially Matt's part still makes this my favorite version
Agree with the others about you watching the masked singer. There is one with all of their performances but the reveal is the best part. 🤗💋🥰
Definitely need to check that one out at some point.
Awesome Mitch slap reaction... not sure if youve done it already, but recommend Aha, star vista, Singapore... ❤
Well that is a big coincidence (or not) Just recorded a reaction like 2 hours ago. Hope to get that one edited and uploaded tomorrow. Thanks for watching and have a great day.

Pentatonix also have a video of creep
Will have to watch that one at some point.
I hate bullies too, but I’m glad he continued making music and didn’t let them win! Mitch: ♾️, bullies: -♾️
I admire that quality and strength. And now we get to listen to his amazing voice.
Hello Saeed, Another Mitch slap for you! I saw that you also reacted to Aha at Singapore Vista - thank you!! I am so looking forward to seeing your reaction to that. Hope that you will do the other PTX performances on the Masked Singer. Reminding you about some recommendations - PTX covers of Take On Me and Come Along.
Thanks for watching and the reminder!
🔥🔥🔥 .. you have to watch the video Saeed .. you will find it on The Masked Singer !! Fire .. Fire .. Fire ... 🔥🔥🔥
Will look it up! Thanks
Mitch was bullied for his voice and being gay. Yes he did get last laugh. And he can go higher.
That is aweful 😞. Will come across the higher notes at some point. I will keep going. Too good not to.
React to Paulina from The Warning cover of Creep. One person, one piano , that's it.
Must check that one out as well.
Please, please do Haley Reinhart's cover with Postmodern Jukebox. You won't know what hit you!!
I have heard a few songs by Postmodern Jukebox years ago. Will need to check out more.
The only time I have head Mitch sing higher is in Imaginary Parties
Interesting!
