If you read this far, I love you ❤️😘
Kevin is an unsung hero of this song. His drum and cymbal sounds are amazing.
Where they pan the sound from ear to ear was done on the song if you listened to the original record. They really know their music history and the details of the songs they remake or upgrade.
The Grassi Guitar does not require a megaphone. It is just a prop to draw attention to who is making the sound. I heard it done live and it was EPIC.
The star field was a tribute to Queen guitarist Brian May who has a Phd in astrophysics. There were four shooting stars in the last star field, one for each member.
Brian May also posted this video on his social media accounts and told fans to enjoy it.
Probably the best version of this song outside of the original.
This is a difficult song to cover well - many have tried and many have failed! But PTX absolutely nailed it - right from those opening harmonies - stunning! Thank you Maggie!
The fading from left to right was in the original Queen recording. That's why they did it.
Part of their genius is putting the right voices in the right places.
Did you catch that it was Kevin who sang the final "any way the wind blows"? Boy did he nail that.
Megaphone is a prop! He sings this perfectly without it LIVE!!! Mitch “Guitar “ Grassi
It IS a prop, but they also throw a lot of distortion onto his voice through the sound board. (like they use compression on base parts).
He also can perfectly replicate a sharpie on poster board. There's a video of Scott writing with one and he mimics it directly after HILARIOUSLY.
@@gregsteele806 yes they add distortion on his voice in the recording but live they don’t use it. Yes he can pull off the guitar sound but it never sounds quite like the recorded version. I’ve seen them sing this live multiple times the most recent being a few weeks ago at The Hollywood Bowl show. The guitar sound is all Mitch.
You're the second reviewer of Pentatonix, that I have heard, in one week to say that Pentatonix makes you happy and comment on how each of their unique voices when mixed together sound magical. Great reaction! Always enjoy your reactions.
Punctuation is everything. One reviewer who heard "Mamma just killed a man" thought that Mamma must be really bad ass.😀
I love at the very end how Avi can sing and create a whooshing sound at the same time!
Kevin is singing the last line
It took them ~ 4 years to perfect this song. They wanted to do Queen justice and they did for sure!
Panning up to the stars when Mitch does his second guitar solo is a tribute to guitarist Brian May who has a PhD is Astrophysics and the four shooting stars are a tribute to the four members of Queen!
Yes, they're brilliant. The original is now a Classic, but this version seems to highlight the intricate composition and construction of the piece even more!
They sing this live in nearly every show. But it was fun the first few times they performed this live. You could practically see steam coming out of their ears from concentrating so hard.
I could have sworn you had done this one before! They, if nothing else, gave Queen another reason to be proud of this song.
She did about a year ago. But another chance to watch it again
I was confused about this too. I wish she would do more PTX :-(
she did many of the reactions on her other channel Maggie Renee, she reuploaded a bunch of them on this channel but this channel was stopped so now its back to the old channel Maggie Renee.
Mitch just did one of the most iconic guitar riffs with a megaphone! OMG!
lovely to see you again, looking as beautiful as ever. thank you for a great reaction.
Those 5 years of prep really paid off. Brian May thought so too! Whenever I listen to PTX they make me happy. Gives me great memories of my singing days. 👸
You should react to their version of amazing grace...Kirsten goes OFF!!! Like for real...and not gonna spoil the ending but the ending will throw you for a loop
"Eargasmic" performance of a classic song by a phenomenal group reacted to by a B-E-A-U-Tiful person with an amazing fan base. Yup... That's all the important ingredients Lol. Love ya. 💕💜✌️🤟🤘😎🖖
Another great reaction!!!Thank you
Love the Mitch-slap when the first guitar solo shows up. Even when we *think* we know how much Mitch is capable of he still manages to surprise us.
PTX always wanted to cover _Bohemian Rhapsody,_ because they love the song, and they love Queen. But for both those reasons they wanted to do it *right,* so they kept putting it off until they were sure they were capable of it. That took them five years, after which the arranging and planning and rehearsing had to be done. I very much wonder just when Mitch first discovered his inner electric guitar, and how much that discovery had to do with their decision that they were finally ready.
Your reaction was well worth the wait. I knew you'd go nuts over it all. It never gets tiring listening to this. Thank you so much for the wonderful reaction.
**THERE ARE LITERALLY NO WORDS IN MY ENGLISH VOCABULARY, THAT CAN DESCRIBE THIS GROUP!!!** ❣ I have also come to the conclusion, that Mitch is an Alien, from the planet of WTF 🙃 😊🙃 I truly love how Pentatonix will put their own spin on a song, yet still manage to keep the integrity & respect the original artist. Luv the crown Queen Maggie 👑
Pentatonix began with Kirstin Maldonado, Mitch Grassi, and Scott Hoying who grew up together and were schoolmates at Martin High School in Arlington, Texas
👸 Always enjoy your comments and analysis of the music.
this is a great version!
Hi-Fi widescreen and technicolor madness! Speechless and tired after this tsunami out of this world!
Panning from left to right in 'little high, little low' is something Queen did on the original recording of Bohemian Rhapsody. They also did it to a much greater degree on another song on the same album called 'The Prophets Song'.
There’s a certain sound that toms, or roto-toms make, Kevin even gets the timbre of the contact/reverb sound you get when you strike the heads..it’s really amazing!
An awesome performance by PTX of one of my all time favorite songs. Glad you enjoyed! Great job!
Listen to a live version some time. There are a ton of them out there. It's crazy!
Queen's version does the same left/right switch at that point in the song.
Fabulous song! Fabulous performance! Fabulous reaction! Loved the analysis too! 👸
👸🏻they have a behind the scenes video of them making this one. Definitely something for you to watch even if just for yourself 🙌
They all are soooo talented. Absolutely amazing
Hello Maggie. Pure Pentatonix Perfection. PTX are beyond superb. Stellar solos, perfect arrangement, great harmonies, bopping and singing, that beat-boxing, paying homage to so many aspects of the original song and to Queen. The vocal skill and the vocal acrobatics of Mitchell Grassi on full display here. There is a behind-the-scenes for the making of this music video that is well worth watching. Love your reactions - especially your Shooketh Moments. More PTX please. They just released Prayers For This World about three weeks ago and a new Christmas album is coming out on October 28.
I also love how in the beginning it goes from one ear to the other, just like the original Bohemian Rhapsody.
I was surprised you hadn't already reacted to this one! I knew you would appreciate the time and all the nuances they needed to do to perform this classic song! 👸
FYI. This was. Filmed/recorded live on a neighborhood street. There is a Behind the scenes showing how this was done live. Look for them. 😊
the megaphone is just a prop. he does this live without it. love your reaction
It's definetly one of my PTX favorite songs - A perfect example that PTX don't do "covers", they do "upgrades" 🤩
I loved your reaction and appreciation of PTX!
I think this is one of their best pieces and tgere is a lot of backstop with this song. If you want a surprise Pentatonix song, abd haven't heard it yet...listen to O Come All Ye Faithful
Kirstie appeared on Broadway, which I believe was her childhood dream.
Yes, Todrick Hall appeared on Broadway in 'Kinky Boots' (among 3 other shows). He reached back for Kirstin. Beautiful
👸🏻you’re an absolute queen for reacting to this cover of Queen.
Liked your reaction. They all did their part perfectly. Kirstin did have a lead in Broadway’s Kinky Boots with Wayne Brady.
Recommend their Mr. Grinch for Christmas.
All of it was amazing thank you 👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻
Remember that although you can say they are in the studio and can "fix things," they do all of this live in every show or in the middle of nowhere at the drop of a hat. They are just that good.
Last April, Home Free put out a 1-minute teaser for this song. You should definitely listen to that, but the guys REALLY have to do the full song.
Thank you, Renee, for your reaction to Pentatonix and Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. This is like the thirty times I hear this song by Pentatonix and it sounds better every time.
I was so prepared to scold you for not using headphones … and then you pulled your hair back and there they were. Although I have zero musical knowledge, I thoroughly enjoyed their mini-doc called Recording Evergreen, a behind-the-scenes look at putting together a recent-ish album. You would just love it, I’m sure. Always here for a PTX reaction, well done! Peace from Ohio …(And, yes, loved the princess emoji too.)
When you listen to Bohemian Rhapsody on A Night at the Opera you get the same effect. The song is produced that way with sounds going from left to right throughout.
There's a video of Brian May and Roy Thomas Baker going over Bohemian Rhapsody with the original master tape. Interesting to be sure.
Nobody ever reacts to their Over the rainbow from the same Classics album. Unfortunately there is no video, but if you close your eyes you can see Kristin smile. Before anyone else, yes the Wizard of Ahhhs is great too, but everyone and their brother has reacted to it already. 🙂
There's a really good video of Kirstin soloing Over the Rainbow at an event for some dog organization. It's a beautiful rendition.
Their version of Over the Rainbow really is breathtakingly beautiful. My favorite from any artist that I've ever heard.
You should really listen to pentatonix run to you! It gives me chills the entire time and every time I listen to it
When you pick a song this iconic to cover, you'd better bring it. Everyone knows the lyrics and the instruments from the original. If you're merely 'good', people will give polite applause and forget you the next day. You'd better be absolutely brilliant so that those who love the original will also love your version. Pentatonix was brilliant with this cover of an extremely difficult song. I still love the original by Queen, but this stands well alongside it. I think Freddie Mercury would have been impressed.
Maggie you have a beautiful voice as well❤️
Watch them do it live! No megaphone. Pitch on point! They don’t need a studio. They really are that good! ❤️
Yes, the megaphone is literally just a prop and not just for purposes of this video. I've seen this done live and he is absolutely nailing the sound without the megaphone.
This was one of the songs they completed after Avi told them he wanted to leave. This one and John Lennon's Imagine were the biggies done just before he left.
There is a fun BTS for this done including the difficulty with the moving couch.
You can hear Avi sing today if you react to any of his solo work of a singer-songwriter although he uses his whole range now instead of just his low bass. I don't think you have ever done his Change On the Rise yet?
I was thinking as I watched this reaction video, that this music video is basically a fulfilment and farewell for Avi's time with Pentatonix.
Also I'm really glad that I got to see PTX live with that original lineup, and I hope I also get to see them live in their current lineup with Matt.
I love watching her eyebrows dance as she enjoys music. lol
For the record, Mitch doesn't need the megaphone to sound like the electric guitar...that was simply to drive home the effect for the video.
Perfection.
2 other things few people notice - or at least comment on. In the operatic section, Kirsty and Scott's solo lines are reverse panned (h/t Jacob Restituto.) In the بِسْمِ ٱللَّٰ (Bismillah) chorus Scott is singing both lines (Noticed myself but surely also by others.) [edit to spell Bismillah correctly]
Maggie, I get you're a singer and pay special attention to the wonderful voices but this wouldn't be nearly as fabulous without their amazing rhythm section. Avi and particularly Kevin really pull out all the stops on this! Please react to Avi's solo work soon - you'll love it!
I completely agree, she needs to realize the depth of Avi's talent!
She always cuts Kirstie halfway through her solos, to talk about others.
now you have to go back and watch all the videos you didn't use headphones. new sub and I like it
👸 I couldn't find the exact emoji you used so I picked this one because you're such a princess.
Loved this version forever. Your joy is infectious. Love the analysis. And old school Maggie reactions are a good trip down memory lane.
Thanks for a fantastic reaction Maggie. I so look forward to your PTX reactions and thoroughly enjoy your comments. This is by far one of my very favorites songs of theirs 💕
He does it live with just a mic.
Just watching this now because life. 👸 As always it's fun to hear your analysis and see your facial expressions at the shooketh moments.
Of course, it was Mitch❤ Megaphone 📢 just a prop. Mitch can do anything! 💥💐
Great reaction! And I made sure to have my new Galaxy Bud2 Pros in my ears. :)
I don't know if anyone else mentioned it, but it has been said that they worked on the arrangement for this for five years because they wanted it to be perfect. I think they took just the right amount of time. 😉
Would love to see you react to Avi's solo music. His latest album is Floating on a Dream.
In the early days of stero the panning effect was a neat "trick" to show off stereo. It was great to see PTX use it in this, as Queen did in the original. This song was just perfect for Mitch "chanelling" Freddy Mercury. And of course guitar Mitch is a great Mitch slap. The megaphone is a prop and does not use it in live performances. Freddy would have loved this cover/upgrade.
wie immer super gemacht,mach weiter so
I'm with you! 😃
The end, when Mitch comes in, I always get an image of Karen Carpenter..
👸 Great job! made my day... I've been waiting for this!!! Surprised it took you this long to get around to it.... "Imagine" has to be your next PTX reaction. 🌹
The genius is that Queen could leave this masterpiece for other to interpret...
Still love Cheerleader and Starships too...
I am so over the moon that you reacted to this. I knew you would love it. Please check out Scott’s first song as a solo artist, called Mars. It is absolutely stunning. I’d love for you to react to their newest release, Prayers for this world, but so far there isn’t a video and I have a feeling you’d rather have the video to react to. Maybe I can get one from the first show of their Christmas tour, in Oakland on November 17th, I have tickets and I am so excited.
Miss Maggie, you need to react to some of Avi's solo stuff.... Pleeeease?
LOVE your reaction Maggie. This group is always amazing!! But you are truly missing out on something special without having reacted to their Aha! Live Singapore.. The Star Vista video. Now the sound quality for the video isn't the greatest as it's a recording from someone's phone, but trust me.. you will be amazed!!! You will definitely get the proverbial Mitch slap...lol.
I really love this song ..... the only problem is that everytime i it played when it gets to the chorus part i always think of Waynes World and start to headbang to it !!
Maggie, let me first say that I love your reactions. I'm so glad you finally did bohemian rhapsody. I saw Queen in concert in 1986 in Germany (Amazing show). My only issue with this reaction is at time stamp 6:19 you edited it 20 seconds of the video. No worries though I still love everything you do. Keep up the great work😃😍
Maggie when are you going to react to Avi's solo music, you are really missing out on some amazing magical music.
👸🏻For more “opera sounding” PTX, you should react to their Star Wars Tribute at the American Music Awards in 2015. It’s really stunning to hear how versatile their voices are.
Oh and they also sang “What is this Feeling” at the WICKED tribute that is very Broadway sounding of course.
Mitch is a younger Mercury.
The best Bohemian Rapsody next to Queen.
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
You should check out Kevin's solo version of Down. He is a genius.
fun reaction, but is this a re-upload? could've sworn Maggie had done this one before, but I could be wrong.
Yes, her remarks seem familiar to me as well. And I thought she had really good headphones long ago.
I'm pretty sure it is...plus it's been chopped a bit.
Yes more than a year ago
Yes
Yep, on her other channel Maggie Reneé, a year ago. But fun to watch again. :)
You were commenting on the singing and being "pitchy" which I suppose to be appropriate for a professional singer but what struck me at that point was the stars shooting in the sky. Since the original guitar part was played by Brian May, my guess is that the stars are a tribute to his PhD in astrophysics earned decades after he began and the halted because Queen was just starting to take off.
You guess correctly. Four shooting stars, one for each member of Queen. Brian May actually shared this video with 'Enjoy'
It's my understanding that PTX from the time they considered doing thi they worked on it for five years before they felt they could perform it justifiably.
👸
Since you like using the intro "Beautiful People", Maybe you should react to Melanie"s "Beautiful People" (Melanie Safka). Melanie has a very unique voice.
Is this a re-edit and re-upload? A few things to point out: First, in the Galileo section, I think they do that one section better than the original. Queen somehow sounded a little off; maybe slightly flat on the higher voice. Kirsti is dead on pitch with lovely clear tones. Second, just before the Mama Mia section when Kirsti jumps up on the couch. It's a production value thing but notice how many cuts there are in about two seconds as she turns, moves to the couch, jumps up on it, and turns around. They come so fast that it's hard to count but I think it's about 7 or 8. I think the reason is because of the shoes she's wearing.Can you imagine jumping up onto that soft, pillowy couch wearing ankle breaker platforms. Can you imagine if she blew out her ankle in the middle of the video shoot? They rented a street from 10PM until 6AM to film it and they almost ran out of time. In some sections you can see the sky getting light behind them.
This year for you should react to helloween, halloween song live with Michael Kiske and Andy Deris, it is a gem!
The megaphone is just a prop. The guitar sounds are just Mitch's voice. They don't use the megaphone in live performances.
Brian May would get a kick out of this... Had Freddie lived I'm sure he would also be laughing with joy over what this is...
Brian May shared this video on his social media with Enjoy
You need to listen to the original again because they are duplicating the left to right movement at that exact place in the original. Also, the megaphone doesn't have any batteries, Mitch is doing the fuzz pedal with his voice, no equipment needed. The wha da da da was Mitch, obviously, and while he was doing that four shooting stars appeared in the sky to represent the original members of Queen. I don't know if you've watched their Daft Punk medley but once you have watched the studio version there is a live version that you should watch to see how consistent they are.
