What's amazing here is that anyone can sing their part while standing next to four others, each singing something different, and stay on key!! Like trying to count something, 6,7,8,9, while someone else is saying, 12, 7, 9, 6, 22. You're off track in no time. So here's Scott trying to do La, la, la in baritone while Avi's nearly in his ear going Ba, doom, la, da in bass all the while Kristy is Ooh, ahh, ooh, ahh in soprano and Mitch is off in his own world with something wildly different in tenor and everyone keeps track of their own La-boom-ta-oohs and not get mixed up or off key, and all at 100 miles an hour!! Amazing.
I love your videos. I don't know why some people insist that PTX does not utilize the technology that every other band or singer or vocal group uses. They are an a cappella group-that doesn't mean that they don't use modern technology to produce their music. Layering voices is NOT CHEATING. They are STILL a cappella when they do that. In Queen's recording of Bohemian Rhapsody, I read that there were around 180 layers added to the song in any given moment. It was STILL Queen singing/playing those layers. Using modern studio technology doesn't make it any less a cappella and it doesn't make their body of work any less legitimate. Some people to this day insist that Mitch's guitar solo in Bohemian Rhapsody was pure and not studio enhanced, yet I saw an interview with Kevin where he unabashedly states that they enhanced Mitch's solo to make it sound more like a guitar. The reason he was so matter of fact about it was that it was truthful, and he didn't see anything at all "dishonest" about doing that. And rightfully so, because there is nothing wrong with availing oneself to the tools available to all artists!
So well said! I was about to launch into the same thing, but you did it better than I ever could have. Good job, and I agree. Peace …
If u check their live performances they sound exactly the same as the studio version without any technology or studio around... so nope sorry you're wrong.
@@Fergiebooh1 I've seen them live five times, very close to the stage. They are magnificent. But no, they do not sound "identical" to the studio performances. No artist on the planet does. As I said KEVIN has talked about the studio tweaks that they do. Ben Bram has been interviewed ON THIS VERY CHANNEL talking about how they use studio technology. It doesn't matter-even if they layer their voices-and they most certainly do-they are still singing a cappella. He admitted to Jacob in an interview that they make use of "STACKING VOCALS" as well as LAYERING to make the sound more full. This was clearly done in Bohemian Rhapsody. Last I checked, Kevin can't beat box at the same time as he is singing without using the stacking and layering. There's absolutely nothing wrong with doing that!
@@Fergiebooh1while I agree they sound just as good live, they do not sound identical live. Their studio tracks sound much fuller given that each singers vocals are layered 3 times. There was definitely distortion added to Mitch’s guitar solo in bohemian rhapsody. Yes he sounds incredible and can pull it off but he doesn’t actually sound like an electric guitar. Listen to what the band and their producer tells us themselves. They’ve all said these such things.
I agree with you. :) OK maybe this is not strictly related to this topic, but I have to admit that I'm struggling a little to get used to the "new PTX sound". I became a fan initially because of the impressive arrangements and the focus on what they could do with their voices. That somehow had magic on its own. But especially in the last two albums, it drifts very much towards pop, and the arrangements don't seem as creative and diverse as they used to be. Some newer songs, like from the last Christmas album, I have heard only once....unlike the older ones, which I can still listen to on repeat daily. Of course, I know the arguments, and I don't blame the band for wanting to evolve, play with instruments, etc. I'm really trying to get used to it, but it's not easy for me personally, and it takes time.... So, I want to say that I understand when some fans aren't going crazy on every new song/sound.
Thanks for teaching us some of the technical end of this song. This is the song many of us PTX fans have dubbed "Breathe Mitch Breathe" because there are portions of this song where he seems not to stop at all for a breath for almost a whole minute. And he does this live as well.
If you saw Matt singing this live then you missed the fact that this is Avi on the studio version.
How they choose which songs would go on this greatest hits album is beside me, but we all knew THiS one would make it!! So many beautiful moments!
For sure!
Avi is the bass… classic old PTX song
Ahhh the Christmas song where Mitch proves he has like 4 lungs, dude does not breathe forever. LOL And this is one with Avi back when they were babytonics.
Lolll
Mitch's breath control is unreal.
Sad you didn't recognize Avi's voice in this as it is unmistakable. You need to react to his solo music PLEASE!
Yes please
I did within 3 notes. He is unmistakeable.
I hear the layering!! Thank you for bringing this to our attention!! WOW
In point of fact, either Ben Bram or Pentatonix themselves have stated that sometimes they layer vocals in their recordings, in particular with Mitch and Kirstie to make their voices sound fuller.
I hear exactly what you're talking about with the layering. There's nothing wrong with that and it sounded great. I appreciate the educational piece you provide also.
It always amazes me that you can not hear or see Mitch take a breath in that first verse. WHEN does he breath?!?! I really love this version and Love that PTX does take you on a bit of a rollercoaster ride in that they build you up and then let you drop back down , then build you back up again and again, and let you drop to breath and at the end let you drift back down to a final rest. Always like your assessments and expertise in music analysis. Keep up the great work.
This was also in the animated film The Star, it's at the very beginning of it
Wow cool
Really enjoying your reactions,.thx for coming back.
Glad you like them!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good to see you doing reactions again Jacob!
Thanks my friend!
Love your reviews Jacob ❤
Thank you!
Recommend their new original video, Please Santa Please.
While I remember what Ben Bram said about their layered vocals it was my impression that he was talking about the background vocals. I’m not sure that Mitch’s solo section is also layered three times.
Idk about three but there are definitely some layers of 2
@JacobRestituto I also got the impression from Ben that when he said there three Mitch's on every track and three kirsties, that they only recorded those parts once and they were added to the studio track three times on top of themselves. So the part you said about them not exactly matching their own pitch do3snt make sense since it's the same recording layered on itself. I only said three mitchs and Kirstie's because that's the example Ben used in your interview with him. He said to make the sound fuller and possibly be able to be played on the radio.
I had to download your Colorado song on Spotify. Being a Colorado Native I think you crushed it
Wow thank you so much for the support!
Scott and Avi are the low ones.
Love your explanations, but how did Mitch get through those interminable stretches without seeming to take a breath? It s the same in the video/ there's no evidence that he ever draws in air during the "Hark how the bells," etc., passages.
AVI
It sounds exactly the same live. Mitch isn’t layering his vocals
