I felt Scott ruined the beginning of this song dinking around with his voice. He is the least consistent for high quality singing in this group yet he can really sing. Like the last part for everyone was Grammy winning.
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I think Scott's distortion is terrific...best version of O Holy Night is the best I've ever heard !!!! BTW, alll other reactors I've listened to have all thought he was superb in this song.
Not sure mentioning other reactors is relevant unless you were going for passive aggressive comparison. Sir Hairless wasn't a fan of part of the arrangement at the end with Kirstie belting and yet that is frequently a part that receives high praise. Reactors have preferences and it’s fine.
@@TeapotNinjait wasn’t Kirsties belting that sir hairless wasn’t a fan of it was the parts going underneath her while she’s singing that part. I love this cover however I’ll admit Scott does go a little nasal during part of it. That seems to be the style he’s going for these days. He didn’t used to sing like that in the early Ptx days.
The reason their voices have improved is because they have all matured. The youngest one, Matt, is 30 years old. They have all been singing and working on their voices for at least 20 years. It shows.
🤩👉 I LOVE Scott's voice he gives you Pop, Soul, R and B, bass, falsettos, He is definitely in the middle of everything they do. "Johnny on the spot". A TOTAL vocal chameleon!! 👉 You've made it very obvious that you don't like Scott, his vocals or both!! That's OK, He is the TRUE HEART of the group and extremely ambitious, which has helped lead the group to the TOP of the A capella chain. Pop vocals is what comes out of him. Different from the rest of the groups vocals, they are ALL AMAZING and EXTREMELY TALENTED in their own vocal path. I LOVE Kirstie's super strong vocals here what great POWER! Matt showing his soulful range is FANTASTIC! I've seen his work before PTX and discovered how soulful he is Kevin! The heartbeat of the group! What a GREAT foundation he provides. I've checked out some of "your" stuff. It's all right nothing "impressive" what stood out the most is the faces you pull when you sing 😅 exaggerated at times, but that your style I guess.
Wow! Maggie! Luv UR Musical Journey and Accomplishments. I’ve watched many of your reactions to many videos. Usually many days, weeks, months and sometimes years after they were out. But, this is the first for me in actuality catching ANY reaction in almost real time on YT. I also love Pentatonix. I remember watching them on the Sing-Off and realizing they probably won it on their 4th performance with “Radio Killed The Radio Star”. Anyway, Hope You are doing well and have a Merry Christmas.
She has reacted to it, she criticized Scott's Italian. We know Scott is not fluent in Italian and he learned it for the song, And though REAL Italian reactors said he was spot on for someone not fluent This reactors said he did not pronounce the language correctly. She doesn't like Scott!
ohhhh merry Christmas MAggie " i was waiting since last year when this gem came out, that you will make an reaction ...and now as an xhristmas gift it cames out..very wonderful and thank you!"
I wouldn't say she beat us over the head with it, she mentioned it and then mentioned it again in comparison to what he did later in the song... which made perfect sense in the context of a reaction video.
I agree about Scott! I looooovvveeeee his voice but when he sings in a poppy voice it’s not my favorite. I love his authentic soulful voice! And for everyone else, she isn’t saying he’s horrible smh she’s simply saying she loves his authentic voice! Merry Christmas!!
This is why I love watching reactors who are educated on vocals. I end up hearing things I didn't before and I agree about Scott at the beginning. But I do think it's because they are preparing you for Matt's vocals. Because that man came in and Matt slapped you all the way to next Christmas. 😂❤
Agreed. I think if Scott had used his full and beautiful baritone at the start, it would have diminished Matts entrance, as he would have continued in a very similar style/tone. PTX don’t do that, by mixing it up you get a real hit from Matt.
Merry Christmas Maggie. Thanks for a great year of reactions. 🎉❤ Just learned yesterday there is a stripped down version of O Holy Night with Avi recorded about 10 years ago. Much different arrangement and style. No video. Only a Yule Log audio. Both good, just different.
Been listening to this song for my second year. I've NEVER heard ANY REACTOR complain about Scott's delivery on the opening verse of this song. And, you're too much of a 'Chatty Cathy' for my taste.
I'm confused you kept saying the video was released yesterday but the video was released a year ago. But I totally agree with you about Scott. I find that his voice is becoming boring and I'm sick of seeing him hogging their videos (Kiss From A Rose)
This is from a livestream, so she was literally talking to people and responding to them. No need for defensiveness just because someone doesn't fawn over an artist's choice.
i agree with you about scott. i love his voice but he tends to 'over sing' his parts the last few years. too many frills when it isn't needed. i still love him.
Will you please react to Dan Vascs O holy night I can not stress enough how wonderful this is you will make me so happy and Vasc Nation I have been asking you for a long time now I do t know what else to do I guess I’ll give up love ya sorry you missed a masterpiece Merry Christmas
God forbid the woman express an opinion over a choice they made... (a valid point at that, mind you) Sheesh, the marks need to relax. Everyone can be Team PTX and not always agree on every note.
When you do the song, you can arrange it to your liking. Here however. You are in the minority; I have listened to hundreds of reactions to this song ever since it came out last year and of the hundreds I've listened to, yours have been the only complaint about Scott. btw... some people prefer pop over opera. That being said... your reaction is your reaction.
Back in 2011, I watched a post-ep recap/review of The Sing-Off’s first episode of Season 3 where we first heard Pentatonix. One of the reactors had the same thoughts on Scott’s pop voice, that it was too nasally and he saw it as a trend in pop music that he really hated. Funny thing - the consensus after that first episode was they didn’t see PTX lasting too long on the show. Within a few episodes though, they were already calling them as the eventual winners of the season.
What should I react to next?! Sponsor a reaction on my channel here: www.maggierenee.com/book-me/sponsor-a-reaction-live
Might be late in the season, But reactions to the different versions of the Rock Opera “Jesus Christ Superstar”.
Life in 3D
It was vocal fireworks. Incredible and Kirstin's control on the Divine belt and the longevity of the note is amazing.
Thing is, they didn’t want to sing it LIKE EVERYONE ELSE. They did THEIR thing and no one else’s.
I felt Scott ruined the beginning of this song dinking around with his voice. He is the least consistent for high quality singing in this group yet he can really sing. Like the last part for everyone was Grammy winning.
Yeah his extra riff and trying to do high notes is annoying to me idk @@carolbuchel3011
That's why you are you and they are a Grammy award winning group !
I didn’t love the criticism of Scott in the beginning, BUT you’re not wrong about where he absolutely SHINES!!! This is a masterpiece!
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I think Scott's distortion is terrific...best version of O Holy Night is the best I've ever heard !!!! BTW, alll other reactors I've listened to have all thought he was superb in this song.
I don’t like Scott’s nasal sound here (but it’s obviously a stylistic choice).
Not sure mentioning other reactors is relevant unless you were going for passive aggressive comparison. Sir Hairless wasn't a fan of part of the arrangement at the end with Kirstie belting and yet that is frequently a part that receives high praise. Reactors have preferences and it’s fine.
She always has something negative to say about Scott's vocals though!
Not his best work.

I agree with you 100%
Yeah what was the hating on Scott for? Yes her personal opionion but damn most of the video is hate on him. Let us listen.
@@MoreThanColours I do think at the end she was blown away by him.

So beautiful. I’ve never heard a Pentatonix performance I didn’t like.
😸
THANKS MIKE !!!
Says you only !!!Definitely only you!!!
This was actually released Christmas 2023. Should have won a Grammy. Was not even nominated. Don't understand
Paused to comment on Scott's voice early vs later that she has not quite heard yet...let him cook...
5 minutes later you are still on Scott. We get it already. 😅
Go back to the prayer to get your baritone Scott fix.😊😊
She has reacted to it, she criticized Scott's Italian. We know Scott is not fluent in Italian and he learned it for the song, And though REAL Italian reactors said he was spot on for someone not fluent This reactors said he did not pronounce the language correctly. She doesn't like Scott!
This video was not posted one day ago it has been out
She keeps saying that on her ptx reaction videos lately. Wonder if she's reposting last years reaction videos?
ohhhh merry Christmas MAggie " i was waiting since last year when this gem came out, that you will make an reaction ...and now as an xhristmas gift it cames out..very wonderful and thank you!"
Merry Christmas everyone
OK, you didn't like Scott's opening, I get it. But, you didn't need to beat us over the head with it😊
I wouldn't say she beat us over the head with it, she mentioned it and then mentioned it again in comparison to what he did later in the song... which made perfect sense in the context of a reaction video.

Thanks! Much holiday joy to you, and to everyone.
Thank you! Same to you! 💖🎄💖🕯️🕎🎄🔥💖

Merry Christmas 🎅.

Your over rambles were a bit much. Also, every member has an amazing range
Her channel. She can ramble as much as she wants
This is from a livestream, so she was literally talking to people and responding to them. No need for defensiveness just because someone doesn't fawn over an artist's choice.
i agree with you about scott. i love his voice but he tends to 'over sing' his parts the last few years. too many frills when it isn't needed. i still love him.
If you react and express an opinion, don't sing the song through the nose and flat.
Will you please react to Dan Vascs O holy night I can not stress enough how wonderful this is you will make me so happy and Vasc Nation I have been asking you for a long time now I do t know what else to do I guess I’ll give up love ya sorry you missed a masterpiece Merry Christmas

Maggie You girl are so wrong this time -- Scott sounds incredible --- from beginning to end ---
I'm not a big fan of his tone on this song either but who am I to judge. The work as a whole is still amazing.
Do you just repost year old videos for views/clicks?
When you do the song, you can arrange it to your liking. Here however. You are in the minority; I have listened to hundreds of reactions to this song ever since it came out last year and of the hundreds I've listened to, yours have been the only complaint about Scott. btw... some people prefer pop over opera.

I agree with you maggie
You should check one of the best covers of this song. Gabriel Henrique from Brazil
