If you want to hear Pentatonix with some African flavor, try reacting to "Oh Come All Ye Faithfull" or "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" from The Lion King.
Kevin (Beatboxer) does it again. This was a surprise but he also sings in "Mary Did You Know?"/"I Just Called to Say I Love You"/"Evolution of Music" and "Evolution of Michael Jackson" and a few brief moments on other songs. Kevin's arraignment of "O Come All Ye Faithfull" shows his African heritage and Honors his parents. Once you hear it, you will NEVER want to listen to the original again. They have also developed an 18 minute segment of their concerts known as "Kevin's 5th" that will surprise you. Kirstin's verse was highlighted by the guys all dropping back to let her shine. They do let each other shine.
When Mitch and Kirstin were asked who could sing the highest, they both turned around and pointed to Kevin! BTW, he is always a tenor. The fact that he works so closely with the bass (first Avi and now Matt) fools a lot of listeners into thinking he's a bass too. I love how Kirstin starts out so gentle and soft here, with lots of vibrato, like she's channeling Dolly Parton, and then starts belting with such beautiful force. Scott has, without doubt, the loudest voice in the group, but I think Kirstie comes in second. Speaking of Dolly, check out their collaboration with her on her song Jolene. Unbelievably, he had never won a Grammy until this performance with Pentatonix!
Actually I've seen them together, all try to hit a whistle note. Kirstie, did it. The others, not so much. I've also seen interviews, where they are asked, who sings the highest, they all agree, they don't know. She's trying to be nice, polite. But if you listen to the live version of Seasons of Love, you will know, when you hear Kirstie's runs, riffs, and whistle notes, when she really feels it, and cuts loose. Also everyone knows what a powerful voice she possess, and she Definitely is the Best Belter.
Yessssss Mitch is the main vocalist in the Bohemian Rhapsody song and yessssss I’m like u they killed that song and I know Freddie would b proud❤❤❤❤every song they do gives me chills
It may not be Christmas...but to really blow your mind about a song you think you know, check out their version of "O Come All Ye Faithful" which Kevin arranged ain honor of his parents. It's common for Pentaholics to play Christmas music year around so no one will object or think you're crazy.
This came out on their Christmas 2020 album. Covid Christmas. It was a needed song for so many with 2020 being such a tough year for so many. When Kevin came in at the end it just broke me the first time I heard it. If you like R&B I would suggest 'If I Ever Fall in Love' or 'Let's Get it On' from The Sing Off. They can and do sing any style, genre and have also sung all or parts of songs in different languages. They have also gotten a Grammy for singing a classical song with no words. They never fail to astoud.
My man, I totally agrèe with you on this performance. Had to listen to Kirstie's gorgeous voice again.😂 I love Kirstie's smile, when she sings, will be forever mine. That girl is feeling it. ❤
The bass is Matt Salee who joined the group in 2017 after Avi Kaplan left the group. Avi was with the group from the beginning and left after 6 years. All the other are originals.
In this version, PTX pays attention to the origin of the song when Kirsty provides the "drone" similar to bagpipes for that intro versions. When Kevin sings, he is clearly a tenor.
When I first heard this, I thought MItch's part was the best I have ever heard anyone doing this song. A minute later, I thought it was the second best I had ever heard.
Mitchell Coby Michael Grassi, otherwise known as Mitch, is the owner of the amazing voice you heard as lead in Bohemian Rhapsody- and every PTX song. Amazing Grace is one of my favorite covers of theirs. At some point you should listen to one (or more) of their originals: Love Again, Coffee in Bed, Sing, Be My Eyes, Happy Now, New Year’s Day, See Through, and Never Gonna Cry Again to name a few. Can’t Hold Us and Problem are great covers with some rapping sections. O Holy Night and Kiss From a Rose are two recent and mind-blowing songs. Everything they touch turns to gold. Oh yeah,… their cover of Gold is epic, too. 😊
Hearing Kevin sing for the first time makes you question everything you thought he was singing in previous videos.... The bass you hear isn't usually Kevin. It's mainly avi or Matt (the regular bass singers) with SCOTT covering when they are doing solos. Kevin almost always covers rhythm section or sings high like this.
FYI: The 2 strong bass was by Avi Kaplan, who left the group in 2017 and Matt Sallee. Kevin Olosula the beatboxer sometimes sings in a falsetto as in this song. You asked about the lead singer in Bohemian Rhapsody. His name is Mitch Grassi. He has a range from countertenor to baritone. As you heard from Kirstie, her range is from a high soprano all the way to an alto. They are all superb singers.
Most people miss it, but having a Celtic heritage, I love the intro where Kirstie and Kevin are droning a discordant note in the background to represent bagpipes. Pipers, even a single piper, often play this song for solemn occasions like funerals or memorial services. The only reactor I've heard who picked up on it was a Scottish guy, and now that I know what it is I can't unhear it! Lovely reaction. Going to check out your Bohemian Rhapsody...
Thank you so much. They are absolutely amazing. We Pentaholics can never get enough of them and love reactions to their songs and gets a thrill out of reactors also enjoy them. Greetings from South Africa
one of the extra amazing things about this group is that they do their own arrangements. They sometimes bring in some extra help, and have had a long relationship with Ben Bram who helped bring them together originally and has worked with them producing a lot of what they do.
You’ve got to listen to The Prayer. They will blow your mind. Kevin does the beatbox and tenor and Matt does the bass. Kevin was the one who hit those high notes at the end.
Old Man Huda….. now that you are entranced by the Pentatonix rabbithole you deserve an honorary title so I hereby knight you “Sir Huda” and will, from this point forward, refer to you as that :). Sir Huda, I am a 73 year old man who is a Pentaholic to the core. I am from an older generation and I just want you to know how much I appreciate your beautiful soul. Sir, you are going to have one of the most fulfilling experiences of your musical life following this amazing group of young people. Their concerts are filled with people from babies to old folks like me and that alone should tell you something. That something is that we are a family and we welcome your beautiful soul into our fold. I so look forward to sharing your experience, I have “Liked” and “Subscribed” and eagerly await notification of your next Pentatonic reaction. Bless your peaceful and loving Spirit!
You should also check out another Acapella group, Home Free, man of consent sorrow. Also if you want to see genre bender, check out Ren, song called Hi Ren. Love your energy in your reactions, subscribed.
This adaptation of Amazing Grace was ‘written’ by Chris Tomlin, a Christian singer/songwriter, for the excellent movie Amazing Grace, about William Wilberforce’s attempts to end the slave trade to & from the UK. (Benedict Cumberbatch & Ioan Gruffud). I love PTX but it’s not their arrangement 🌻
If you want to hear Pentatonix with some African flavor, try reacting to "Oh Come All Ye Faithfull" or "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" from The Lion King.
I don't care who you are, when Miss Kirsty hits the rafters at the end, the Holy Spirit is gonna get ya.
I could listen to MItch sing the phone book❤❤❤❤❤
Seriously!
"The Prayer" and "O Holy Night" are absolutely AMAZING, and really show their range. . . . all their songs do - keep going down the rabbit hole!

Mitch Grassi was the 'lead' in Bohemian Rhapsody.... You've been 'Mitch slapped'!
This is my favorite version of this song. I would like to see you react to their "upgrade" of Imagine. They give a very good message in that one.🙂
And the wall of sound is 🤯 good luck not tearing up with that one
I second the vote for “Imagine”.

Tell us how you really feel! I love your enthusiasm for PTX and how you express it! ❤
They are very good vocalist.. I'm so impressed
Yessssss Mitch is the main vocalist in the Bohemian Rhapsody song and yessssss I’m like u they killed that song and I know Freddie would b proud❤❤❤❤every song they do gives me chills

Kirstin can belt! Also, their famous Wall Of Sound occurred at 9:03 in this reaction. Recommend their cover of Shallow.
If you watch closely, you'll see that Mitch has wings on the back of his jacket.
When Kristen reaches with her hand to heaven.. she's gonna belt it out
I don’t know if you’ve done kiss from a rose…it’s a must
This came out on their Christmas 2020 album. Covid Christmas. It was a needed song for so many with 2020 being such a tough year for so many. When Kevin came in at the end it just broke me the first time I heard it.
If you like R&B I would suggest 'If I Ever Fall in Love' or 'Let's Get it On' from The Sing Off.
They can and do sing any style, genre and have also sung all or parts of songs in different languages. They have also gotten a Grammy for singing a classical song with no words.
They never fail to astoud.
Oh Come All Ye Faithful and O Holy Night are masterpieces as well I enjoy your reactions

The bass is Matt Salee who joined the group in 2017 after Avi Kaplan left the group. Avi was with the group from the beginning and left after 6 years. All the other are originals.
This song was the first time we were gifted with Kevin's beautiful tenor voice. He had not sung a solo before.
He sang in several songs before this one. The 3 I can think of off the top of my head are Sing. Say Something, and Little Drummer Boy.
No need to sings this better - I cry every time I hear it ❤
Welcome to the world of Pentaholics! We can never get enough!
In this version, PTX pays attention to the origin of the song when Kirsty provides the "drone" similar to bagpipes for that intro versions. When Kevin sings, he is clearly a tenor.
The group says Kevin has the ability in falsetto to hit the highest notes of anyone in the group😊😊😮
When I first heard this, I thought MItch's part was the best I have ever heard anyone doing this song. A minute later, I thought it was the second best I had ever heard.

Take me to Church!
I just love this upgrade so much! They never disappoint! They are even better live! You need to react to Oh Come All Ye Faithful!
Sing it Kevin!
Hearing Kevin sing for the first time makes you question everything you thought he was singing in previous videos.... The bass you hear isn't usually Kevin. It's mainly avi or Matt (the regular bass singers) with SCOTT covering when they are doing solos. Kevin almost always covers rhythm section or sings high like this.
Or Seal's "Kiss From A Rose" - Kevin is the only artist I've ever heard "celloboxing". ♥
FYI: The 2 strong bass was by Avi Kaplan, who left the group in 2017 and Matt Sallee. Kevin Olosula the beatboxer sometimes sings in a falsetto as in this song.
You asked about the lead singer in Bohemian Rhapsody. His name is Mitch Grassi. He has a range from countertenor to baritone. As you heard from Kirstie, her range is from a high soprano all the way to an alto. They are all superb singers.
Thank you for that reaction. You may want to start pausing a few times or put a film over the video, so it doesn't get blocked.
This version is actually by Chris Tomlin I believe. They did put their own spin on it, but the extra lyrics where not written by them. ❤
you should check can't hold us new rules x are u that somebody. Prayers for thjs world love again
Love love love love this……. All their songs r amazing and I love that they share their God given talent with us
Check out..... Pure imagination 😊

Kevin is not a bass. He is a tenor who plays cello saxophone and piano
one of the extra amazing things about this group is that they do their own arrangements. They sometimes bring in some extra help, and have had a long relationship with Ben Bram who helped bring them together originally and has worked with them producing a lot of what they do.

Thank you for your beautiful reaction. Good to see reactors like u appreciating their beautiful voices

I love PTX but it’s not their arrangement 🌻
I was hoping someone mentioned Chris ❤
@@reneeg9406 You think PTX would acknowledge the artists they cover by putting it in the title, yk in brackets or something…
I just subscribed because I love your reactions to PTX ♥️ Now I can check out some of your other videos ♥️
I don't know if you found out who Mitch is. He is the Tinner ( the higher male voice) He can go even higher with his vocals)
Listen to mary did you know its my favorite
My reaction to that song is in this playlist
th-cam.com/video/Gi-HnNZxcjQ/w-d-xo.html
Catch Mitch's tiny wings!?!
First!
i Love that!! hahaha
“Bow tie genre?”
This isn’t a barbershop quartet. PTX are 5 of the best musicians on the planet.
Not bass singer that was Kevin the beat boxer!!!!!
My Prayer ! If you Haven’t You Have To 🍀
