They did this song in response to the Orlando Shooting that took so many LGBTQ+ lives. If you read the description box from the song. They explain everything. All singers are LGBTQ+. Excellent reaction
Dan Ma Amen! As a lesbian who lived in Melbourne at the same time as the Pulse Massacre (45 min away), this song means everything. My wife, teenage daughter (at the time - she’s almost 23 now) and I were glued to the TV the entire day. We went to the memorial two days later. It was so moving. :’(
Kirstin’s engagement was cancelled. :( She’s not associated with this video, though, although I see some people are including the remaining members of PTX, none of whom are associated with this song/video.
I know they did this song in response to the Pulse nightclub tragedy and just knowing that makes it powerful, but I listened to this version a lot while fighting cancer. It helped me find the strength to get up and fight every day. And---still I rise!
As others have said, this was done in response to the shooting at a gay club in Orlando, and other atrocities, in support of the LGBTQ+ community. Mario Jose was at one point a roady and friend of PTX, and he had such a great voice, they asked him to do an opening set for one of their concerts. His duet is with Scott on Lost on You is one of my all-time favorite Scott videos. Brian Justin Crum was a semi-finalist on America's Got Talent, and his audition doing Creep is epic. Mary Lambert sang with other artists like Maclemore, and her voice here is just angelic. Thanks for the great reaction!
a bit about the artists. Mary Lambert did another song with Macklemore, Brian Justin Crum was on America's Got Talent (check out his version of "Creep" on AGT, Mario Jose was actually a part of the tour crew for Pentatonix which Scott actually taught him how to sing. I am glad you reacted to this song. It makes me well up every time. Another one that gives me the feels is Scott and Mario Jose's "Lost On You" Where they mashed the lyric sfrom LP and put it to a piece done by Hans Zimmer from the Inception movie. It's really beautiful.
I love the freedoms that all of PTX has with each other to branch out with solos, singing with others and they support and promote each other in these songs. So incredible to see them be so supportive of each other and their endeavors outside of PTX. True friendship. 🥰
Me too! When I was at the depth of my depression I was asked to find a song that I could listen to to keep me going. It was this one. I still play it to remind me I will rise
Loved your reaction, as always - looking up what my favorite AGT singer, Brian Justin Crum, had been up to led me to Superfruit's "Rise", which led to PTX's "Hallelujah", which led to all their Sing Off performances, etc, lol.. the typical TH-cam rabbit hole!!!!! I remember Googling whether Mitch had cancer when I saw the first Sing Off and he looked so different, lol. Thanks for all your great reactions and posting so regularly - gives me something to look forward to while I'm at school all day trying to figure out how to deliver real learning via the internet :-)
Drew! I am so glad you took our suggestions. This is one of my most favorite thing they did. They did this in response to the shooting at the LGBTQ+ club in Orlando.
I really love and appreciate your reaction to this video. You listened and were respectful of the song, its message, and the artists involved in its creation. Its a beautiful and powerful video to watch.
listenning to the original after hearing this I am blown away at how much better this version is. the power and emotion they communicate through this song can be felt in my soul.
I love your sign-off! I know it's coming every time and I'm already a subscriber but I wait because I want you to get that view count. It cracks me up how casually you just bring up that subject like an afterthought. Thanks for making me smile and I always thoroughly enjoy your reactions.
From the description section under the video: Directed by the amazing, beautiful, talented Erix Arocha!!! Follow him on insta! @erixfilming Arranged by Ben Bram & Scott Hoying! Thanks Ben for always playing piano for us! Mixed by Ed Boyer!
While not nearly as profound, Superfruit's "Fantasy" is a light-hearted anodyne to the heavy matters behind this, not to mention a bit of a crossover into an entire new realm -- kpop -- by including Amber Liu, a member of the deprecated (but not officially disbanded) group f(x).
By the way. My name (I’m female) is DRIEUX, but it’s pronounced DREW. My family is originally from France-in 1853! And my mom wanted to give me the FRENCH spelling!
Wow! Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Power and emotion both overflow and so well put together. Fantastic! Don't forget Dimash!

That makes so much sense!! How beautiful and uplifting!!

No, only Scott and Mitch are gay. Kirstie has been with the same guy for 4 years - she & Avi used to date. Kevin was married last September.
@@ClaireBarn I was only talking about the other 3 singers singing with Scott and Mitch in this song
Kirstin’s engagement was cancelled. :( She’s not associated with this video, though, although I see some people are including the remaining members of PTX, none of whom are associated with this song/video.
You MUST watch Scott and Mario Jose sing “Lost On You”.
Powerful. Soulful.
It is amazing. I've listened to it many, many times today. The harmonies are so beautiful.
Yes, PLEASE DO! It is so stunning!
Yes that one is AMAZING
You have to react to Brian Justin Crum singing Creep on AGT!

This is beautiful I'm sorry you got cancer but way happier you overcame it!!

Please look up “I’ll Run To You” by PTX. It’s an original and SO POWERFUL!!!

this song has inspired me to never give up, even when things are going wrong. I made it my ringtone

This is a top show! Their voices sounded so well together. How have they been brought together, who has made the arrangement for this song?
