I was so mesmerized by the way the trio was taking us to chuch (yes....CHUCH, lol) & switching off the duets between all 3, & hearing the beautiful 5 part harmonies & of course KO's PERFECT percussion the first half dozen times I watched/listened .....that I didn't realize how LOW Matt was actually going & SUSTAINING the bassline until I got in my car. Bruh. I honestly think that might be his lowest note yet. My bum was vibrating for real on this one. Caught me off guard driving down the road🤦🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 All jokes aside tho, kudos to the whole group. I most definitely smell a Grammy here!!!! Fingers crossed! Great reaction btw!!

    Since I first heard this right after it came out, I was reminded of what Sara Bareilles told them after Dog Days Are Over: " What we have here is a group of young people who can become so much more". This is the so much more. They are now mature artists, in absolute total control of their instruments and able to handle even more complex harmonies than before. And remember when Sean said "PTX you sound so big". This is PTX at their biggest. It's almost like the judges 10 years ago could see this coming. And I can't wait to see where they grow and go from here. I think we're only just beginning. Which may be truly amazing as spectacular as they've been til now.

    If you were only listening to this , you would think it was Botticelli and Celine singing this. Scott sounds so much like Botticelli, it's INSANE! PTX is really great at building up to a maximum crescendo and then dropping you back down to earth and doing it over again. That is what makes their music so EPIC !
