      You are right about us needing lessons all of the time. I certainly got mine yesterday. I found out that she was sandwiched between two vehicles and that the one behind her was a pickup truck that shoved her into the back of the vehicle in front of her. Thankfully she is not hurt.

    Going back to the early days for this one, Barry! Yes, it's an original, written by Avi and Kevin. In the shots where the "snow" is "falling upwards", the group members taught themselves to lip synch the lyrics backwards so the shots would match. One of their best originals that I don't think you've reacted to yet is Sing. Very catchy song and fun video, full of surprise celebrity fan cameos.

    This is definitely one of their most 'different' songs; no regular 'beat' to the melody and therefore, with it, no beatboxing. That makes it damn hard to keep time, even with actual musical instruments, so to do it with just their voices shows just how insanely in sync they are with each other. And I reckon they could actually fix your plumbing as well; they'd just sing to your faulty pipework and it would just go "Ah, go on then, you sound lovely, so we'll behave from now on."

    They would often perform this song off-mic at their concerts. They would stand at the edge of the stage and sing their hearts out. And you could hear every word from every corner of the concert hall, the soft and gentle parts, and (of course) the belting parts. Always a magical experience to be in the audience for that (which I was).

  • @StorytimeWithLana
    @StorytimeWithLana 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    A hauntingly beautiful song, Barry. The underlying bass and harmonies, the slowness of each word stilling time, defining the meaning of the song, creating an ache that deepens with each note. Again, very beautiful song. Thanks for asking us to listen again.

    Beautiful, yes but...to me there is a deeper meaning in the lyrics. It speaks to me of a lost love that never was found again. It seems to be saying that one member died and the remaining member is beseeching heaven and earth to get them back. "I will Break down the gates of heaven...a Thousand angels are waiting for me" speaks to me of the desperation of the one who lived is willing to do anything to regain their lost love, even challenge heaven.
    It takes my mind to those I've lost and makes me miss them all the more. It takes me to the one of whose love I could never speak, but only dream of in silence... and what I would do to see him, speak to him once more.

Even though you can hear the others, Mitch is so beautiful here. The breaking down the gates of heaven part is so strong it almost takes my breath away. Interesting comparison to Clannad.

    Hi Barry - I was about to head to bed and this review popped up. Such a relaxing song. You mentioned a Celtic group that has similar methods used in this song. What is the name of the group?

    • @ItsmeBarry
      @ItsmeBarry  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi Tina the group is called Clannad they have a very distinctive Irish sound that just popped into my mind listening to this song. I hope that helps and thank you so much for watching, I’ve made a couple more PTX reactions since this one 👍

    YES! You've solved a mystery I've been kicking around since I first heard this song years ago. The warmth and other-earthliness was immediately apparent to me, but there was a quality of the music that I couldn't quite put my finger on it. It felt like a combination of lullaby from hundreds of years ago, and that beautiful call of a penny whistle played in the near distance. CELTIC. You finally named that mystery element of this piece for me. A beautiful blanket of sound with gorgeous Celtic thread woven throughout.

    It was Lovely chatting to you all during the premier.
    I know I say this is my first original song by Pentatonix but I mean not a Christmas song. I’ve heard two lovely original Christmas numbers by my talented buddies. As I say in the video “is there anything they can’t do?”
    Please subscribe, like and leave a comment, all three of those things helps TH-cam fall in love with me and will help them push my channel and in turn promote Pentatonix even more.
    Now for my little question... would you rather I just make a single reaction (like my hallelujah reaction video) or keep with the double view format?

      I like the double video format, but I know it’s a lot more work to produce. So whatever works for you.

      I also love the double format that you do, and would prefer it, if it's not too much extra effort on your part. Your comments sometimes help me to pick up on little things that they do that I might not have otherwise noticed, so thank you ~ and I'm glad your back!!!!

    All of their originals are wonderful. I prefer them as they come from them. Some great ones are Sing, Love again, standing by, cracked, water (w/Avi)...be my eyes, happy now, lucky ones (with Matt).

    Also it seemed like Mitch's voice is so powerful in this song. It felt like he was reining his voice in thru out much of it. Did you notice this?

    • @ItsmeBarry
      @ItsmeBarry  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      yes he is a very gifted singer, he uses many different techniques throughout the PTX catalog. He’s known for the high notes but he is so much more than that. Just listen to his new new song “machine by Messer” to see just how versatile he is 👍

    Avi and Kevin apparently wrote the bulk of it but they are all listed as having a part in writing the song. It’s in my top 5. I love the discord and close harmonies. Plus the words are so poetic and lovely. I never get tired of hearing it.
    Barry, here are some others from PTX that I’d love to see you review: Be my Eyes/Sing/Carol of the Bells/Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies. But I’d LOVE it if you’d listen to three of Mitches covers. I’m pretty sure he does all the background voices in these songs, and he sounds AMAZING in all three: 1) Find You
    2) Graveyard and 3) Your power by Billie Eilish (Mitch played the piano, wrote the synth parts arranged the song and produced it). They are all gorgeous, of course, but Mitch’s voice is so mind-bendingly beautiful, it takes my breath away every time. Please, please review them! You won’t be sorry, I promise!

    I can't even tell you how many times I have listened to this song. Possibly more than every other PTX song combined? When I say it's my favorite, I mean it. It's exquisite.
