Don't ever stop from talking when you get excited about the music!!! Be yourself and this is your channel... never apologize! I am excited for the reaction!
Mitch is so ridiculously comfortable in his mix voice, (no, those highs weren't even in head voice, they were mix). At this point I think he actually has two voice boxes. He hits high notes like it's nothing!
Like he does in Gold? I've never heard of anyone else performing that song like Mitch. Kiiara herself can't perform it without sampling her song in her performance.
Mitch definitely showed out in this performance. However, I think Kevin is so underrated in this (probably because he isn't seen in this video as he was putting away his cello "Beyonce) after his solo and rejoined them standing on the other side of Scott) but can definitely be heard. His beatboxing was so complex and on point in this. Thanks for this reaction. Looking forward to more PTX. 😊
He also needed the correction about Austin is better than Kirstie because she's a girl. Mitch matches Austin at least, and Kevin can get up there too. Cheers Sean.
He jumped straight to the top. I was surprised. I agree that he needed to see this to get the full Mitch effect. He should check out Gold next just to see Mitch on another level.
@@jelinenanashi9466 good idea. It really showcases Mitch but also showcases avi and Kevin working together. And of course Scott and Kirstin are awesome as well. I could never do that where they each say a part of the phrase like at the end of daft punk or in the choral part of bohemian raphsody. Id be so confused. Lol That's yet another reason they are THAT GOOD!! ☺️
We Pentaholics have literally seen these videos so many times we can actually sing them verbatim without looking....you talk whenever you want to - it's your channel !! We love your reactions so far, don't change anything ! By the way - most of us love Home Free and Voctave too !
The only reason I don’t like the talking over the solo’s is because he misses the beauty of what they can do. I agree is pentaholics already know the songs.
Mitch is absolutely awesome. It's not just that he can go super-high - that's a rare talent in itself - it's that he can do it with the clarity of tone and sheer POWER he puts behind it. Many men who can 'sing' falsetto can only do it by going up into a head voice that softens and lightens the notes; Mitch, being a counter-tenor, can use 'mixed-voice' for many of those notes (that's a combination of head and chest voice, so you retain the tone and power of chest voice, but still achieve the clarity of a head voice falsetto.) He's a rare treasure, for sure.
One of the reasons we don't usually suggest this one right off the bat, is that it is very focused on only two of the singers - bass man Avi at the beginning, and of course, Mitch. And many reactors go - "Where's Kevin???" (beatboxer), who unfortunately never shows up on this phone video. He is actually standing next to Scott the whole time on the right, during the Aha! part. You can hear all his crazy beats and whooshes and rattles, but we never get to see him. Anyway, loved your reaction, and that you didn't talk over the singing and stopped it when you talked. Looking forward to more.
@@madenabyss6981 He was only off stage during the choral part. During Avi's solo, Mitch and Scott moved left and he came on stage next to Scott right as Aha! started.
Wow!! You went all in with one of the big songs from Pentatonix! I love it! When Mitch surprises you with his high notes, we call it the Mitch effect! Daft Punk will blow your mind! Other PTX requests would be Imagine, Mary did you know, Bohemian Rhapsody, Sound of Silence and many more! Can’t wait the the next PTX reaction!
If you wondered where Kevin their beatboxer was, he was there (you can hear his beatboxing in the background) you just never see him. It seems the fan who recorded this was super focused on Mitch.
They have 3 Grammys. Daft Punk (1st) Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (2nd and underrated in my opinion) and Jolene with Dolly Parton (3rd) Quick notes: Avi was the bass until 2017. He is a true basso profundo. Matt took over from there. His voice is like velvet. Scott (tall blonde) baritone and sings bass when Avi or Matt are taking the lead. Mitch - counter tenor. He changes his look a LOT! Kirstie (rhymes with thirsty) mezzo soprano Kevin - he is a beast! He is the beatboxer but is an internationally recognized musician on both the cello and sax). He went to Yale. He is fluent in Mandarin. He deferred Yale Medical School to audition with them on The Sing Off.
Fantastic Reaction! You’re definitely on your way down the PTX rabbit hole! It’s a FUN ride! If you like Ariana Grande songs, you HAVE to watch PTX’s cover of Problem with fabulous vocals & amazing editing! Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy is also phenomenal! A song with no lyrics performed with no instruments = PTX Grammy!!!!
Pentatonix "Bohemian Rhapsody" is really good, you will be blown away. Also checkout another Accapala group Voiceplay - "Oogie Boogie Song", and many others.
They are amazing aren’t they? Daft Punk is the first of three Grammys, it cost them $400 to make and they filmed it in a closet. They were new and couldn’t afford to do it any other way. Home Free and PTX are friends, don’t choose one or the other, just enjoy both!
They are AMAZING !!!! There is a airport performance its so good !!! Daft punk , The dance of the sugar plum fairies , Mr. Grinch , Sound of silence , making christmas ... Aaahhh all of them hahaha
Brave of you to jump right into the deep end with this! Haha. Great reaction, thank you! Daft Punk will blow you away. Mitch and Scott have their own side called Superfruit. You should check out Hip Hop Goes Broadway 1 & 2, they are hilarious!
Your first video on them was already very positive. You have nothing to apologize for in my book. Your biggest transgretion was to talk over Mitch's solo which is kinda blasphemous for Pentaholics, but you didn't know and you've clearly learned, so you're forgiven :D :D :D. Awesome reaction, btw. I was grinning the whole time. You were correct about people mentioning a Grammy. PTX got three and one of them is for Daft Punk.
I've watched more reactions than I care to at times. 99 percent of reactors talk over Mitch's solo portions in videos or they stop the video and don't rewind to hear him. PO's me to no end and I let every single reactor know they don't get the full appreciation of Mitch. I think it's a pattern for all of them because they do watch each others reactions and stop the videos closely with other reactors.
I think you would enjoy the Pentatonix's journey on the sing off? It is really worth the journey to see them grow and from great to outstanding to phenomenal in just a few short months! They were so very young and had really just met as a group! You get a real sense of who they are and how prophetic the judges comments were because it really is what they became! If you choose to react to those videos watch from the beginning with a pre interview showcasing how they put together their arrangements each week and how they worked as a team all the way to the end after the judges comments(which are amazing) for a post interview with pentatonix on how they felt the their performance went!
Don't worry. You totally totally redeemed yourself in this video. The headphones make a huge difference. I'm very happy with this reaction, have subscribed, and can't wait until the next one. This was perfect.
I was going to suggest this song after watching your "assessment" of all male voice groups. Welcome to being an official Pentaholic! Home free is definitely a talented group, but these folks......my friend.....were the OG's when it comes to modern acapella groups. Their abilities make it so they can sincerely replicate current music to a TEE! Also, if you haven't seen it, Kevin (the percussionist) is also an accomplished cello player and has a channel where he plays and beatboxes. These are all SUPER talented humans!
Yeah, I like the name pentafry, they were the Sing Off winners in 2011 and Home Free won the Sing Off the following season. Watching those are great because you can see how much Pentatonix grew, Home Free had been doing circuits around the country for awhile, they are a bit older. After Home Free won I think they got out of a rut and decided they could be better and proved it. There is going to be a lot of a cappella groups coming your way, so keep those headphones handy; not to mention a lot of info coming your way. My info is we will listen to any you want to react to plus their Christmas songs anytime of year.
Awesome reaction ! PTX is amazing "live!" PTX lovers enjoy your interruptions, man ! That's why we are here, to see what you think ! This is my favorite group, so powerful, and dynamic. Try more; Kiiara's "GOLD", Halleluiah, Mad World, "IMAGINE," "Evolution of Rhianna," "Mary Did You Know" and their Christmas stuff is fabulous ! You are just getting started enjoying these talented people. Thanks !
The stuttering response is typical!!!!!! I love the reaction. Mitch's talent takes my breath away. Every member is amazingly talented in many ways. Welcome to the rabbit hole.
If you do Daft Punk it would be so fun to see you react to the official video followed immediately by their “Daft Punk Off Mic Private Performance” in the same video so you can see how they translate it to live. No pressure, just a suggestion 😉
Daft Punk won them their first Grammy, Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy (no words just music) won them their second Grammy and their cover of Jolene with Dolly Parton won them their third Grammy. I don't mind you talking when you get excited, I don't mind pausing when you want to stop and talk about it so you don't miss anything. Believe me, I have watched them all over and over and get excited watching others enjoy them for the first time. They have over 200 videos for you to enjoy so keep them coming. They just released a new original song a few days ago called Happy Now. Something we all need right now.
new sub. Mitch can get those notes up there. check out their cover of Say Something to see the beautiful Kirstin shine.Also Can you feel the love tonight
Loved this reaction - when I saw your first reaction and you said that they didn't have a guy that could sing as high as Home Free (whom I love also).... I just wanted you to react to this song, and I am so glad you did! I hope you do more and more reactions, your enthusiasm is wonderful - happily call you a Pentafry LOL! Have subscribed!
In case no-one has said it yet - this is an Imogen Heap cover - you should check it out so that you can see how well these guys did it - Avi has been known to blow speakers out on more than one occasion too :) Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy or Can You Feel the love tonight...or... their original Love Again....all Mitch laden :)
I’m a Pentatoholic and it’s a treasured group of talented people. But if you want to hear the best male vocalist with a six octave range you might want to check out a fellow by the name of Dimash Kudaibergen. His range is phenomenal and you will not be disappointed!
Daft Punk next, please. Also there has been only one member change, Avi. Mitch and Kirstin changes the appearance a lot. The Wizard of Ahhhs with Todrick Hall is a good video to see.
You are not the first reactor to struggle for words to describe Mitch’s voice and vocal abilities. Enjoyed your reaction, do hope to see more Pentatonix. And I love your moniker, “PentaFry” ❤.Do DAFT PUNK!
Lol, I wasn't offended with your comments in the last video - heck, I subbed! If you're new to the group, you obviously just didn't know what you didn't know - thanks for coming back and sharing some more :-)
Love how excited you get, go ahead and let the reaction flow. Just a couple bits of information you should know. Kiristin has Broadway credits and had the female lead in Kinky Boots for a time. And so you don't think Kevin is just a beat boxer extraordinaire you should know he is the over achiever of the group. He plays Cello, Piano, and Saxophone all at concert levels. He graduated premed from Yale, spent over a year in China where he learned to speak Chinese. He sings Tenor but vocals were not his strong suite so he worked with other band members and a vocal coach until while on tour he would perform the featured vocals in "if i ever fall in love" originally done by guest artist Jason Derulo for the album and video. He also writes and produces music both individually and for the group.
As Sean says, no need to apologize; Most people are surprised upon hearing PTX and then hearing them Live for the "Yeah, they are the real deal" knockdown. It's part of the trip to becoming a fan (Pentaholic).
There it is, Mitch face! The look people get when they get Mitchslapped hearing him. Add in Avi awe and you got your money’s worth! Five of the most talented musicians alive today!
He's a counter/contra tenor and not all is falsetto as some people believe. His vocal cords are short or thin therefore his vocal range is high before he even goes into any falsetto.
So far as I know, at least on video, this is the pinnacle of Mitch. He was at the absolute top of his game that night. This was his " I'm a diva and I'm going to own it " moment. From here on out he completely owns his voice, how high he can sing, and all the attitude that comes with being Mitch. As for talking during the videos...don't worry about it. When you feel something, when you just have to say it, when you've got to let it out like you do? THAT'S what we come here for! We WANT your reaction. We WANT to hear what you think, how you feel, and what you're experiencing. We've already done all of this, those of us who have been long time Pentatonix fans. What we're looking for is to relive our own journey through the eyes of someone just starting it. And, when you're hearing things we've listened to a million times before for the first time, we're getting just that. Never try to be anything other than who you are. If that means talking during the video, so be it. Most of we Pentaholics will come and watch anyway. If you're looking for an under-reacted-to gem for a future video, I would suggest finding their cover of "When Love Takes Over" with Natalie Weiss. It's an oldie, but a goodie. Lots of fun to watch Natalie during that performance. Thank you for doing these videos for us. Watching someone else start their Pentatonix journey is always SO much fun.
Yes, it's easy for them because they've been singing since they were babies. They couldn't help it, had to do it. That's what natural talent people are like.
Everyone reccomends the Daft Punk medley because they won their first of three grammys for that medley. I think you will be impressed with the beyonce, Michael Jackson and other medleys because they are done in one take and recorded live. I dont think you could pick a bad PTX song. Home Free and Pentatonix both competed in The Sing Off. You can check out those to see how far they have come in almost a decade since they were on the show.
Sound of silence with headphones is a complete MUST!!!!! Also Daft Punk with the visuals are incredible. Plus like EVERY Christmas song at Christmas time!!!
just so you know. Kevin (beatboxer) was there just putting away his cello so when he came back to the stage, he was not on the camera, but you can hear his beats
Lol no worries. Mitch is their secret weapon and almost everyone is blown away when they hear him hit those crazy high notes. He is a counter tenor and it’s his natural range. I legit love every member, but Mitch probably has my favorite tenor voice out there. Subscribed ✔️
Daft Punk, Sounds of Silence, Mary Did You Know, Imagine, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies --- And the Sing Off is the show Pentatonix was on one season and Home Free was on another season --- Well worth watching both seasons.
A Cappella groups are VERY MUCH ALIVE. I am Sub'ing to you, can't wait too see more PTX reactions, hope you fall in love with them as much as we do. I am going to share this to the facebook group Pentaholics, we will come to see ;your PTX videos. Liked!
Love your enthusiasm. Their completely accapella version of Bohemian Rhapsody amazing and Sound of Silence stuns me every time I watch it. Welcome to PTX. I look for new reactions to their videos every day. Can't stop. Truly a Pentaholic, lol. Eager to see what you choose next!
I think that the huge interest in a capella groups these days stems from all the kids in public schools who were in choir. It was so awesome and we all enjoy listening to truly talented vocal artists. Thanks to all those public school choir teachers who managed to pull together dozens of kids all who were different into a cohesive vocal machine. Keep on listening ND spreading the word!
LOL For the most part, both fan bases get along fabulous! PentaFries are just that! Fans of both! Love your genuine reactions to them, please keep it up!
OH MY GOSH! I LOVE YOUR ENERGY! They are amazing! And the 2 groups are very different! Both fantastic! I like your name for a fan base also! PENTAFRY! That's good. I see you were kinda speechless there...that happens a lot. Did you notice that Kirstin and Scott (the tall blond guy) did the harmony where one was singing 2nd and 4th notes, the other was singing the 1st and 3rd notes? They studied 5 part harmonies. That takes some concentration....! Esp. to bring it together and sound so good with the bass and high notes..You will probably have to hear the song a few times to fully appreciate it. Or maybe that is just me....LOL Peace to you and God bless. Oh, Please react to Daft Punk...I think you will be amazed.
Really enjoy your reactions! Sean ????? said it right.. you chose a video most people watch AFTER getting to know them better. Glad you appreciated it.. their original was made while they were still "babies"! Mitch is a countertenor can reach controled higher notes than Kirstin.. when asked who is the best singer in the group, they all point to Mitch.. but each of them have incredible voices and they have gotten better and better over the last 10 years.. Scott, Kirstin, and Mitch are childhood friends and have grown into their wonderful harmonizing capabilities! (I am also a Pentafry! Lol!)
Nothing wrong with liking both PTX and Home Free, most do, nothing wrong with that. It was fun watching you discover some of the talents of PTX, they have so many. Their music portfolio on TH-cam is immense. As you are finding out, they are not your typical a capella group. Have fun with them and I am gladly hitting your red button.
Terra from Terra Simon Studios (and I may be misspelling her first name) did a vocal-coach reaction for this video, and was able to tell HOW Mitch is able to do this. 😃
Watching you smile 😃 during the whole video made me smile! I’m jealous of people like you who are experiencing certain Pentatonix songs for the first time! I would give anything to have that feeling again. 🥰
Mitchuation just happening again. another amazing unreal Mitchuation and pentatonix video is "Gold" cover by kiiara, i think he can sing just about anything , great reaction video!!!
in your arsenal....perfect description....when you listen again ( and you will) ..take note of Avi singing bass in this...it turns into earth mover at one point
Daft Punk, Imagine, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radioactive, and their Evolution compilations. I didn’t realize this video was up when I commented on your last. So happy to see the headphones lol. There is a live version of Hallelujah on the internet and it’s not off a cell phone. Gives you a greater appreciation for how perfect they sound live.
This is a great example of Avi's low range- he blew out the speakers at this concert, there's another video from later in the show (Telephone by Lady Gaga) where you can really hear how distorted it got xD
I love Pentatonix!!💖💖 They are my favorite group, next to Homefree and VoicePlay. My name is Shay. 😍Please, could you react to VoicePlay and their video, "Daddy Sang Bass?" Would greatly appreciate it!🤗Thank you and enjoy!
Welcome to the club! PTX!! They are all such amazing singers and artists. Saw them live once, amazing! Super professional and fun at the same time. I am a vocal coach and they never stop impressing me. One thing I really love, and it’s rarely talked about is the way they move. They always modestly admit they are not dancers but they are a great example of how to move, not necessarily to emphasize the emotion of the lyrics, but you can move with the musicality of the piece. I love how Mitch pinches his fingers together when he delicately sings a soft note, like “this one has to go down nice and easy”. Lol.. You know, I’m not as young as you are, and I have loved lots of artists through many decades and they were are worth it. I could not rate them in a single file. It’s always up to my mood of the day. Yay for diversity, choice, talent and expression. Enjoy the ride. 🤗
You have a great personality that really comes through on your videos. I love your reactions and the bit about taking back what you said about the high voices was so beautifully done. Looking forward to more of your videos.
you are lovely! always love genuine reactions - you can always pause the video and talk, and go back to it. even rewinding a bit if you miss something - it's all super okey, dude! new subscriber here, looking forward to all of the Pentatonix coming up ;) hehe. White Winter Hymnal is faaaantastic, but watch them in whichever order you want *thumbs up* I'm here for it!
Watching someone discover PTX and say I'm not sure if they will be as good as Home Free.......then watching them eat crow later......it's becoming the standard! hahaha! Both groups are great friends, there is no need to compare or pick a favorite, they are both amazing! This is a rabbit hole you will be glad you went down, welcome to the family!
The rumor is they do sometimes watch reactions. Now, for perspective, watch the official video they put out for Aha. It has a 'ghost story' vibe, I think you will like it. The grin on your face says it all. That will be your reaction to about 89.4 % of their videos. The other 10.6 % will have you crying. You are going to be great!
They've won 3 Grammys. Daft Punk, Dance of The Sugarplum Fairy, and a duet with Dolly Parton of Jolene.Don't know what you've listened to but here are a few: Hallelujah, Sound of Silence, Imagine, Run to You, Bohemian Rhapsody, Say Something
Daft Punk Medley will leave you speechless! Welcome new Pentaholic! You are awesome!
Don't ever stop from talking when you get excited about the music!!! Be yourself and this is your channel... never apologize! I am excited for the reaction!
Agreed!
And if you think you missed something go back a little bit. As a fan I got no problem hearing a great note repeat it.
Or you could stop it so you to talk without missing anything, I saw others do that(sorry my english, I'm bad at it)
Yes we LOVE hearing your genuine reactions
like moths to a flame, my dude. Acapella people are enthusiastic? Rabid? Heck yes, Daft Punk medley next!
100%! Haha.
I stan that comment!!!

MITCH IS THE KING OF HIGH NOTES!!!!!! 🎶🎶🤯🤯
Mitch definitely showed out in this performance.

It's very Rare for someone to Jump straight to this video but I feel you were qualified
That's true for sure!!
Yes, Moose already appreciates fine a cappella. He's WAY ahead of most reactors!
He also needed the correction about Austin is better than Kirstie because she's a girl. Mitch matches Austin at least, and Kevin can get up there too.

Did Avi blow out the speakers on this one?

Pleas do their cover of John lennon"s IMAGINE. It has a great message and it show cases everyones voice.
Yes! Do this one. You NEED to do this one.
Yes!!
I totally agree with this.
Need to, for the kind of world now
Please do! It really touches you!
Check out their Sound of Silence, it's transcendent, truly life altering. Welcome to Pentaholics 😁
hello again glad to see you with more Pentatonix...Hey PTX fam
🙋🏼♀️
Hey Sean!!
🐨😊
Lol, Hey Sean ????? 😊
Funny fact: this was not his highest note... wasn't even a head note :D Mitch is just amazing !!
That's a great fact to point out! I second that!
If you wondered where Kevin their beatboxer was, he was there (you can hear his beatboxing in the background) you just never see him. It seems the fan who recorded this was super focused on Mitch.
They had just performed a song with him playing the cello. He was putting it away.
@@valfritz191 Correct...he rejoins the group after the song has begun.
And who could blame the recorder for focusing on mitch? He was on fire.
They have 3 Grammys. Daft Punk (1st) Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (2nd and underrated in my opinion) and Jolene with Dolly Parton (3rd)
Quick notes:
Avi was the bass until 2017. He is a true basso profundo. Matt took over from there. His voice is like velvet.
Scott (tall blonde) baritone and sings bass when Avi or Matt are taking the lead.
Mitch - counter tenor. He changes his look a LOT!
Kirstie (rhymes with thirsty) mezzo soprano
Kevin - he is a beast! He is the beatboxer but is an internationally recognized musician on both the cello and sax). He went to Yale. He is fluent in Mandarin. He deferred Yale Medical School to audition with them on The Sing Off.

Mitch doing the electric guitar solo just blows me away
@@helensmusings SPOILER ALERT
Another great!
Pentatonix "Bohemian Rhapsody" is really good, you will be blown away. Also checkout another Accapala group Voiceplay - "Oogie Boogie Song", and many others.
I love your reactions! I would recommend Daft Punk, Sound of Silence, and Bohemia Rhapsody by them. They're such an amazing group.
Bohemian Rhapsody is a MUST listen as well. Mitch at his finest.
They are amazing aren’t they? Daft Punk is the first of three Grammys, it cost them $400 to make and they filmed it in a closet. They were new and couldn’t afford to do it any other way.

There is going to be a lot of a cappella groups coming your way, so keep those headphones handy; not to mention a lot of info coming your way. My info is we will listen to any you want to react to plus their Christmas songs anytime of year.
Awesome reaction ! PTX is amazing "live!" PTX lovers enjoy your interruptions, man ! That's why we are here, to see what you think ! This is my favorite group, so powerful, and dynamic.
Try more; Kiiara's "GOLD", Halleluiah, Mad World, "IMAGINE," "Evolution of Rhianna," "Mary Did You Know" and their Christmas stuff is fabulous ! You are just getting started enjoying these talented people. Thanks !
Thank you! I’m going to do the evolution of Ariana next. It should be up in the next few days.
The stuttering response is typical!!!!!! I love the reaction. Mitch's talent takes my breath away. Every member is amazingly talented in many ways. Welcome to the rabbit hole.
If you do Daft Punk it would be so fun to see you react to the official video followed immediately by their “Daft Punk Off Mic Private Performance” in the same video so you can see how they translate it to live. No pressure, just a suggestion 😉
Daft Punk won them their first Grammy, Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy (no words just music) won them their second Grammy and their cover of Jolene with Dolly Parton won them their third Grammy. I don't mind you talking when you get excited, I don't mind pausing when you want to stop and talk about it so you don't miss anything. Believe me, I have watched them all over and over and get excited watching others enjoy them for the first time. They have over 200 videos for you to enjoy so keep them coming. They just released a new original song a few days ago called Happy Now. Something we all need right now.
new sub. Mitch can get those notes up there. check out their cover of Say Something to see the beautiful Kirstin shine.Also Can you feel the love tonight
She shows her amazing range in Rather Be, also.
Kirstin ❤
Her voice in shallow is also super strong and emotionally moving.
@@MelaniePoparad I'd forgotten about Shallow
Loved this reaction - when I saw your first reaction and you said that they didn't have a guy that could sing as high as Home Free (whom I love also).... I just wanted you to react to this song, and I am so glad you did! I hope you do more and more reactions, your enthusiasm is wonderful - happily call you a Pentafry LOL! Have subscribed!
No need to apologize for anything you were just uninformed and now you know and knowing is half the battle.
Hi there, Sean ?????
Hi Sean?????
@@kimberlymathewes Hello Kimberly..Hope you are well
@@janetranslates Helllllllo Jane
@@sean1849 I am! Hope you are well!
In case no-one has said it yet - this is an Imogen Heap cover - you should check it out so that you can see how well these guys did it - Avi has been known to blow speakers out on more than one occasion too :) Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy or Can You Feel the love tonight...or... their original Love Again....all Mitch laden :)
Oh so much for you to experience with these talented people! I’m gonna enjoy watching your PTX journey!
I’m a Pentatoholic and it’s a treasured group of talented people. But if you want to hear the best male vocalist with a six octave range you might want to check out a fellow by the name of Dimash Kudaibergen. His range is phenomenal and you will not be disappointed!
Watch Bohemian Rhapsody by Pentatonix
Daft Punk next, please. Also there has been only one member change, Avi. Mitch and Kirstin changes the appearance a lot. The Wizard of Ahhhs with Todrick Hall is a good video to see.
Yes yes yes!! The wizard of ahhs!! Such an amazing production.
You are not the first reactor to struggle for words to describe Mitch’s voice and vocal abilities. Enjoyed your reaction, do hope to see more Pentatonix. And I love your moniker, “PentaFry” ❤.Do DAFT PUNK!
OOOH, you might appreciate their cover of Macklemore's Can't Hold Us. Showcases everyone's talents in a different way
Lol, I wasn't offended with your comments in the last video - heck, I subbed! If you're new to the group, you obviously just didn't know what you didn't know - thanks for coming back and sharing some more :-)
Love how excited you get, go ahead and let the reaction flow. Just a couple bits of information you should know. Kiristin has Broadway credits and had the female lead in Kinky Boots for a time. And so you don't think Kevin is just a beat boxer extraordinaire you should know he is the over achiever of the group. He plays Cello, Piano, and Saxophone all at concert levels. He graduated premed from Yale, spent over a year in China where he learned to speak Chinese. He sings Tenor but vocals were not his strong suite so he worked with other band members and a vocal coach until while on tour he would perform the featured vocals in "if i ever fall in love" originally done by guest artist Jason Derulo for the album and video. He also writes and produces music both individually and for the group.
🔥🔥🔥*******************INSANE VOCALS ON EVERY LEVEL!!!******************* 🔥🔥🔥
As Sean says, no need to apologize; Most people are surprised upon hearing PTX and then hearing them Live for the "Yeah, they are the real deal" knockdown. It's part of the trip to becoming a fan (Pentaholic).
There it is, Mitch face! The look people get when they get Mitchslapped hearing him. Add in Avi awe and you got your money’s worth! Five of the most talented musicians alive today!
Mitch is phenomenal he's the best falsetto I've heard from a man in ages❤️❤️🌼
He's a counter/contra tenor and not all is falsetto as some people believe. His vocal cords are short or thin therefore his vocal range is high before he even goes into any falsetto.
So far as I know, at least on video, this is the pinnacle of Mitch. He was at the absolute top of his game that night. This was his " I'm a diva and I'm going to own it " moment. From here on out he completely owns his voice, how high he can sing, and all the attitude that comes with being Mitch.
As for talking during the videos...don't worry about it. When you feel something, when you just have to say it, when you've got to let it out like you do? THAT'S what we come here for! We WANT your reaction. We WANT to hear what you think, how you feel, and what you're experiencing. We've already done all of this, those of us who have been long time Pentatonix fans. What we're looking for is to relive our own journey through the eyes of someone just starting it. And, when you're hearing things we've listened to a million times before for the first time, we're getting just that. Never try to be anything other than who you are. If that means talking during the video, so be it. Most of we Pentaholics will come and watch anyway.
If you're looking for an under-reacted-to gem for a future video, I would suggest finding their cover of "When Love Takes Over" with Natalie Weiss. It's an oldie, but a goodie. Lots of fun to watch Natalie during that performance.
Thank you for doing these videos for us. Watching someone else start their Pentatonix journey is always SO much fun.
I love how you scrunched up your whole face when Mitch was doing his high notes. Such an expressive face, loved it!🥰
Their new bass (Matt) is featured in "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch"
I love how enthusiastic you are, your whole face shines! So adorable!😍
Your smile is contagious! Love it!
Yes, it's easy for them because they've been singing since they were babies. They couldn't help it, had to do it. That's what natural talent people are like.
Everyone reccomends the Daft Punk medley because they won their first of three grammys for that medley. I think you will be impressed with the beyonce, Michael Jackson and other medleys because they are done in one take and recorded live. I dont think you could pick a bad PTX song. Home Free and Pentatonix both competed in The Sing Off. You can check out those to see how far they have come in almost a decade since they were on the show.
Sound of silence with headphones is a complete MUST!!!!! Also Daft Punk with the visuals are incredible. Plus like EVERY Christmas song at Christmas time!!!
just so you know. Kevin (beatboxer) was there just putting away his cello so when he came back to the stage, he was not on the camera, but you can hear his beats
Love your smile!
You; had the volume too loud.
Me; laughing out loud - meet Mitch!
Welcome to the fam
Yay...headphones...lol. I just watched your first Pentatonix reaction and commented HEADPHONES...cant wait to watch this one 💕
Lol no worries. Mitch is their secret weapon and almost everyone is blown away when they hear him hit those crazy high notes. He is a counter tenor and it’s his natural range. I legit love every member, but Mitch probably has my favorite tenor voice out there.

Daft Punk, Sounds of Silence, Mary Did You Know, Imagine, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies --- And the Sing Off is the show Pentatonix was on one season and Home Free was on another season --- Well worth watching both seasons.
A Cappella groups are VERY MUCH ALIVE. I am Sub'ing to you, can't wait too see more PTX reactions, hope you fall in love with them as much as we do. I am going to share this to the facebook group Pentaholics, we will come to see ;your PTX videos. Liked!
Great reaction! I’ll be here for any PTX song you choose! Can’t wait for the next one!
Love your enthusiasm. Their completely accapella version of Bohemian Rhapsody amazing and Sound of Silence stuns me every time I watch it. Welcome to PTX. I look for new reactions to their videos every day. Can't stop. Truly a Pentaholic, lol. Eager to see what you choose next!
I think that the huge interest in a capella groups these days stems from all the kids in public schools who were in choir. It was so awesome and we all enjoy listening to truly talented vocal artists. Thanks to all those public school choir teachers who managed to pull together dozens of kids all who were different into a cohesive vocal machine. Keep on listening ND spreading the word!
LOL For the most part, both fan bases get along fabulous! PentaFries are just that! Fans of both!
Love your genuine reactions to them, please keep it up!
OH MY GOSH! I LOVE YOUR ENERGY! They are amazing! And the 2 groups are very different! Both fantastic! I like your name for a fan base also! PENTAFRY! That's good. I see you were kinda speechless there...that happens a lot. Did you notice that Kirstin and Scott (the tall blond guy) did the harmony where one was singing 2nd and 4th notes, the other was singing the 1st and 3rd notes? They studied 5 part harmonies. That takes some concentration....! Esp. to bring it together and sound so good with the bass and high notes..You will probably have to hear the song a few times to fully appreciate it. Or maybe that is just me....LOL Peace to you and God bless. Oh, Please react to Daft Punk...I think you will be amazed.
Hi!! We pentaholics are very active and passionate! Please, react to their evolutions of... It doesn't matter, I love them all!!
It's okay you just didn't know LOL!! I have been lucky to hear both live and both groups are fantastic!!!
Really enjoy your reactions! Sean ????? said it right.. you chose a video most people watch AFTER getting to know them better. Glad you appreciated it.. their original was made while they were still "babies"! Mitch is a countertenor can reach controled higher notes than Kirstin.. when asked who is the best singer in the group, they all point to Mitch.. but each of them have incredible voices and they have gotten better and better over the last 10 years.. Scott, Kirstin, and Mitch are childhood friends and have grown into their wonderful harmonizing capabilities!
(I am also a Pentafry! Lol!)
Nothing wrong with liking both PTX and Home Free, most do, nothing wrong with that. It was fun watching you discover some of the talents of PTX, they have so many. Their music portfolio on TH-cam is immense. As you are finding out, they are not your typical a capella group. Have fun with them and I am gladly hitting your red button.
Now go back and listen to how beautifully and cleanly Mitch sing the runs in the high part. He. Is. Magic.
Terra from Terra Simon Studios (and I may be misspelling her first name) did a vocal-coach reaction for this video, and was able to tell HOW Mitch is able to do this. 😃
Tara
Watching you smile 😃 during the whole video made me smile! I’m jealous of people like you who are experiencing certain Pentatonix songs for the first time! I would give anything to have that feeling again. 🥰
"turn the volume down...." LOL Love it!
Mitchuation just happening again. another amazing unreal Mitchuation and pentatonix video is "Gold" cover by kiiara, i think he can sing just about anything , great reaction video!!!
in your arsenal....perfect description....when you listen again ( and you will) ..take note of Avi singing bass in this...it turns into earth mover at one point
Thank you for the headphones. Mitch is an awesome talent. A gift from God himself. Aren't we the lucky ones. Loved your reaction.❤
Yes us Pentaholics are EVERYWHERE, and we appreciate any video :)
Your reaction brings me genuine joy!! I can see it in you’re smile that you are having so much fun listening and watching
Keep it up buddy so much more to go 😁😃😁
Try listening and react to new rules x are you that somebody
Yeah. I love this one!
La la latch, gold, new rules. All are amazing.
Daft Punk, Imagine, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radioactive, and their Evolution compilations.
I didn’t realize this video was up when I commented on your last. So happy to see the headphones lol.
There is a live version of Hallelujah on the internet and it’s not off a cell phone. Gives you a greater appreciation for how perfect they sound live.
“I had the volume up too loud!”
Fun fact: Avi (the bass) literally blew out the speakers here! 😁
This is a great example of Avi's low range- he blew out the speakers at this concert, there's another video from later in the show (Telephone by Lady Gaga) where you can really hear how distorted it got xD
I love Pentatonix!!💖💖 They are my favorite group, next to Homefree and VoicePlay. My name is Shay. 😍Please, could you react to VoicePlay and their video, "Daddy Sang Bass?" Would greatly appreciate it!🤗Thank you and enjoy!
Welcome to the club! PTX!! They are all such amazing singers and artists. Saw them live once, amazing! Super professional and fun at the same time. I am a vocal coach and they never stop impressing me. One thing I really love, and it’s rarely talked about is the way they move. They always modestly admit they are not dancers but they are a great example of how to move, not necessarily to emphasize the emotion of the lyrics, but you can move with the musicality of the piece. I love how Mitch pinches his fingers together when he delicately sings a soft note, like “this one has to go down nice and easy”. Lol..
You know, I’m not as young as you are, and I have loved lots of artists through many decades and they were are worth it. I could not rate them in a single file. It’s always up to my mood of the day. Yay for diversity, choice, talent and expression. Enjoy the ride. 🤗
Same here, Pentafry is a good one. I am Pentafryplay to be technical
Exactly!!!
Love watching reactions to pentatonic.
Great reaction to "Mitch being on fire" Loved it, Thanks!
You have a great personality that really comes through on your videos. I love your reactions and the bit about taking back what you said about the high voices was so beautifully done. Looking forward to more of your videos.
I feel like their cover of Little Drummer Boy really shows some of Kevin's (the beatboxer) abilities...you should check that one out for sure!
you are lovely! always love genuine reactions - you can always pause the video and talk, and go back to it. even rewinding a bit if you miss something - it's all super okey, dude! new subscriber here, looking forward to all of the Pentatonix coming up ;) hehe. White Winter Hymnal is faaaantastic, but watch them in whichever order you want *thumbs up* I'm here for it!
Bohemian Rhapsody!! Daft Punk, Mary Did you Know? Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.....
Watching someone discover PTX and say I'm not sure if they will be as good as Home Free.......then watching them eat crow later......it's becoming the standard! hahaha! Both groups are great friends, there is no need to compare or pick a favorite, they are both amazing! This is a rabbit hole you will be glad you went down, welcome to the family!
The rumor is they do sometimes watch reactions. Now, for perspective, watch the official video they put out for Aha. It has a 'ghost story' vibe, I think you will like it. The grin on your face says it all. That will be your reaction to about 89.4 % of their videos. The other 10.6 % will have you crying. You are going to be great!
They've won 3 Grammys. Daft Punk, Dance of The Sugarplum Fairy, and a duet with Dolly Parton of Jolene.Don't know what you've listened to but here are a few:
Hallelujah, Sound of Silence, Imagine, Run to You, Bohemian Rhapsody, Say Something
Love your reaction to Mitch!!!
