@@blitzofchaosgaming6737 it's okay, my original post did come off sounding like ptx was better and i sure never meant it that way. no one is better than Freddie
If you're a half-time junkie, highly recommend you check out Pentatonix' version of Can't Hold Us from Macklemore. They also have a sick half-time in New Rules x Are You that Somebody (and some awesome bell tones in that one too).
Man, is that a woman, can not only sing, looks damn good too! I find it sooo cute when she pulls her snout up to the side, sharp thing... Pentatonix is lonely top in acapella singing and right after that comes the equally extraordinary group "Home Free"... Definitely check it out!
Since nobody I can find has mentioned it yet, the "phaser" sound you hear is Avi. He's making that sound AS he's cranking out those dragon notes. Friggin nuts.
It's worth watching your reactions just to see your facial expressions. It's so obvious you love the music, and I really appreciate that you tell me why it's so good. Keep 'em comin'.
For half times you really need to check out 'Can't Hold Us' and 'New Rules X Are You That Somebody'. For key changes the best one is 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight'.
And lest you think this was done with a lot of "studio magic", I have seen a cell phone recorded video of them doing this live, and it is absolutely true to the studio version.
You are one of the few that talks about, and seems to appreciate, how technical the arrangement is. There’s so much going on, but it’s all so smooth and seamless that you have to listen to it several times to focus and hear everything they are doing. Love your reaction.
No Doubt, Mitch has the most beautiful singing voice of all time. The little break before drop when he was singing was beautiful and sounded like an angel. I can talk about Mitch all day 😅.
Great reaction as usual ☺️. Mitch and Kirstie seem to change their look in every video to the point some reactors think they are different members. It’s always them lol
I think you'd love any of their "Evolution of ..." videos. Just the 5 of them on the couch singing medleys. So glad I discovered your channel - so much fun!
Nice reaction! Early video but still one of my favorites, shot by FifGen Films, also a young and small video company at the time. Many obstacles to overcome to complete this Grammy winning video. First, their location fell through at the last moment so they shot indoors (Avi and Kevin's home) and used black sheets on the walls to create a "black box" about 20 square feet and shot in that space. Lighting with ring lights, black light and smoke. The makeup was last minute decision by FifGen as they were out shopping for other supplies. "Run to You" mentioned in the out-tro of this video is an original, written by Avi and Kevin, is quite a bit slower and the harmonies are out of this world. Another original shot in this multi-frame style is "Love Again," it sort of takes on a Steampunk feeling with the costumes.
Hey man - You ARE BY FAR my favorite 'Reactionist' on this WHOLE platform..... I absolutely love your reactions because of you enthusiasm & your technical analysis. I await ALL of your reaction segments!!! Keep rockin dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great reaction! The key changes in their arrangement of Sound of Silence are so smooth you barely notice it. One of the best half time switches is in Can’t Hold Us.
You have become one of my absolute FAVORITE reactors! I love how passionate and genuinely excited you get!! I also love that you catch and point out details in their arrangements!
Great reaction. Appreciate your comments. I think you were talking over Avi's super low note during the percussion and bass halftime though. They are musical geniuses and so exciting to watch. This was their first Grammy win. They have 3 from their earlier years with Avi. They make every cover new and their own. Other great covers are Imagine, Bohemian Rhapsody, Rather Be, Say Something and Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy(grammy #2) which is performed with no words. no words...no problem! Please watch also some of their originals i.e. Love Again, Run to you and Sing. Have fun. Will be watching :)
Great reaction, on point and glad to finally hear a drummer's reaction to this Grammy winning performance, Javis! (I'm a former drummer turned baseball player but met everyone from Buddy Rich to Billy Cobham and Dave Weckle) Kudos to the production wiz and while we're at it, let's just say Avi's bass lines and solo are what what most of us wish we could pull off at least once in life!
I like that she is the only one wearing Blue contacts. The guys contacts are all the same, more of an Aqua..I just think it stands out. great reaction by the way.
Was so stoked when I got to see them in 2017. Drove 3 hours to the concert then 3 hours back the night before a final exam. Was worth a point or so off Zoology.
Too many amazing choices. Just follow your heart. I have been following them since they first appeared on The Sing Off in 2011 (I wish that was still on. Great show.), and they DO NOT DISAPPOINT.
Love, love, love your reaction. Thank you for appreciating them the way you do. Avi talks about "Run to You". Check it out...it's an original with 5 part harmony.
Love your energy and insight. If you want to hear them stripped down and still fantastic, I suggest Gold. I also suggest Aha Live from the Star Vista Singapore for a live version to hear how amazing they sound even recorded on a crappy cell phone camera. Mitch is my absolute favorite but on their Daft Punk video, I can't take my eyes off Avi and Kevin. They are stunning together. I also think their cover of Problem by Ariana Grande is a banger. For something a little different but still phenomenal, check out Superfruit, the youtube channel Mitch and Scott started for fun. They do medleys of Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, the TV show Empire, Rihanna, Beyonce, Taylor Swift etc. Just the two of them with a little piano accompaniment in the background. You won't regret checking it out.
I'll start by saying that I stumbled on you from JUNNA's Through the Fire and Flames. Stayed cus I love your enthusiasm. Relative to this vid though You know its bopping when you let up a slip and accidently sing a note or two along.
daft punk is my "feel good" band I put on at work over the speakers when i'm having a rough time. one more time i'm not usually a thirsty bitch, but god that blue hair, that makeup, she stares into you while singing a beautiful song, it's a powerful video.
Love your reactions so much! ❤️❤️❤️ You have to watch their covers of Gold & New Rules to see how far they’ve come. Just wait till Christmas!! I think they’ve put out a Christmas album every year….SOOOOO much to chose from!
As a kid, I was amazed the first time I heard baroque music and heard how composers took so many different parts and blended them together emphasizing different parts. I really enjoy your reactions to PTX and Home Free but also how you can just jam to other groups like Blackpink. If you've never heard it, I hope you listen to Toby Keith's "How do You Like Me Now". It's an awesome revenge song. Or Ray Stevens' "Mississippi Squirrel Revival". You'll like both.
You need to react to their cover of the sound of silence. When Avi was still part of the group, he would often do sound effects in addition to the base and work big time with Kevin to fill things out.
Great reaction! For epic modulations check out Can You Feel the Love Tonight! For sleek half-time section & an amazing chromatic walk down checkout Attention! Carry on!
1:44 "...oh nice percussion..." yeah... about that... they don't have any percussionist. In fact, they don't have any instrumentalists at all. Yes this is acapella and yes they can perform it live. So.... yeah... no wonder they won the Grammy....
Only just discovered your channel. Pentatonix kicks butt no matter what they do and Avi Kaplans deep voice just seems to mould it altogether with his deep run through.
Have you looked at the music video Superfruit the cover song is Katy perry's Rise....and also dimash the song is SOS you said you liked alot of different octaves and all kinds of music you won't be disappointed
This is the one they got the first Grammy for Best Arrangement. They recorded this in a freaking closet. 🔥👏
Good thing the Grammy wasn’t Best Recording Spot
Haha
For only $400 as well
And filmed in a kitchen! Here is an example of building it! ua-cam.com/video/0hIcvcxYvLU/v-deo.html
Kitchen
you will be shocked by their version of the iconic Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, it's a phenomenal video
Yaaas!!
@@blitzofchaosgaming6737 i didn't mean to offend and i dont want shot, i correctred post. Again I apologize
@@blitzofchaosgaming6737 it's okay, my original post did come off sounding like ptx was better and i sure never meant it that way. no one is better than Freddie
@@blitzofchaosgaming6737 so true
I love Bohemian Rhapsody! My favorite cover that they do!
They jus got their ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ on the Hollywood walk of FAME cpl days ago yo ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
If you're a half-time junkie, highly recommend you check out Pentatonix' version of Can't Hold Us from Macklemore. They also have a sick half-time in New Rules x Are You that Somebody (and some awesome bell tones in that one too).
oooooooo snap!!!!!!! IM not sure if Im ready for it !
Strongly second these two. High energy
Yes please! My fave
@@DrummingwithJarvis you know you’ll just be wondering if you don’t check it out 😂
Do it!!!! You will not be disappointed!
Man, is that a woman, can not only sing, looks damn good too!
I find it sooo cute when she pulls her snout up to the side, sharp thing...
Pentatonix is lonely top in acapella singing and right after that comes the equally extraordinary group "Home Free"...
Definitely check it out!
Since nobody I can find has mentioned it yet, the "phaser" sound you hear is Avi. He's making that sound AS he's cranking out those dragon notes. Friggin nuts.
Oh yesssz!!! Soooo cool
Kevin and Avi carried this rendition. They're all talented AF, everyone knows, but they truly made this version
Totally agree. They are all great, but Kevin and Avi are AMAZING
I love to watch people bouncing around on their chairs while discovering this masterpiece! Great reaction! 🤩Please mooore!
YESSS!!!! more to come for sure 😊😊😊😊
It's worth watching your reactions just to see your facial expressions. It's so obvious you love the music, and I really appreciate that you tell me why it's so good. Keep 'em comin'.
Right! His eyes brighten! Fantastic reaction!
Pentatonix rocks ANYWAY but you really do make it a party - LOVE your reactions!!!
Love their singing. Kirstin's crooked smile kills me. So beautiful.
For half times you really need to check out 'Can't Hold Us' and 'New Rules X Are You That Somebody'. For key changes the best one is 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight'.
They thoroughly deserved the Grammy they got for this - one of the best a cappella arrangements ever made.
As much as I dont listen to a ton of Pentatonix, this video is a straight banger and never gets old! Yessirrrrrr
What a look! What a turnaround!🔥🔥🔥🔥
I enjoyed your reaction to this fun Pentatonix medley. Thank you. More Pentatonix please. Subscribed.
Greetings from Canada!! Great reaction - next up: Bohemian Rhapsody and Sound of Silence!! (pretty please)
And lest you think this was done with a lot of "studio magic", I have seen a cell phone recorded video of them doing this live, and it is absolutely true to the studio version.
‘Studio’ being Avi’s closet
they performed this live as opening song of their concerts. similar vibe to this has their original "Love again"
You are one of the few that talks about, and seems to appreciate, how technical the arrangement is. There’s so much going on, but it’s all so smooth and seamless that you have to listen to it several times to focus and hear everything they are doing. Love your reaction.
I second the motion for Bohemian Rhapsody, and Sound of Silence, maybe Aha (Singapore) for fun.
No Doubt, Mitch has the most beautiful singing voice of all time. The little break before drop when he was singing was beautiful and sounded like an angel. I can talk about Mitch all day 😅.
You always make me smile AND notice something new in a song I’ve heard more than a few times 🤩 Thanks!
Great reaction as usual ☺️. Mitch and Kirstie seem to change their look in every video to the point some reactors think they are different members. It’s always them lol

Avi was helping with some of the percussion and other noises. I love this song.
You did it again! Had me jamming right along. I enjoy the heck out of your reactions and I'm so delighted you did this song!
Hey man - You ARE BY FAR my favorite 'Reactionist' on this WHOLE platform..... I absolutely love your reactions because of you enthusiasm & your technical analysis. I await ALL of your reaction segments!!! Keep rockin dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I hit play so fast! Great reaction (as always)!
You are so right! - you want to get bodies moving, drop it into half time.
YESSSS!!!! 😊😊🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
BRILLIANT reaction 💜
They made this video in their closet for 400.00. They had a friend video record it and help put it together. They one a Emmy for it. 3 Emmy’s now ❤
I love them !! I remember I got to see them LIVE in LA at a youtube event and they sound even better in person!
oooooooooo!!!! If that happens again I need an invite 😊😊😊😊 They're soooo good!
They are all incredible in this, but Avi and Kevin are out of this world, making those beats and sounds with all the changes is almost impossible.
I'm late to the party but oh man your reactions to PTX are priceless!!!!!
I love the half time section tooo….amazing
best PTX halftimes have got to be attention and new rules x are you that somebody. and best key changes in can you feel the love tonight!
OH SNAAAAP! key changes take the soul 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fun reaction🎶🎶🎤🎶🎶
yesss appreciate you!!!!
Really enjoyed your reaction. No clown act just a good professional input. Thanks! Subscribed.
Great reaction! The key changes in their arrangement of Sound of Silence are so smooth you barely notice it. One of the best half time switches is in Can’t Hold Us.
Added! Im def going to have to check It out!!!!
You have to watch their version of “Can You Feel the Love Tonight”! I’m dying to see your reaction! 😁
You have become one of my absolute FAVORITE reactors! I love how passionate and genuinely excited you get!! I also love that you catch and point out details in their arrangements!

Kevin Olusola is _ridiculous,_ omg. Take in his live-take solo cover w/ looped vocal percussion and cello of Marian Hill "Down"!
Great reaction, on point and glad to finally hear a drummer's reaction to this Grammy winning performance, Javis!

Excellent reaction and I loved your analysis. Keep it up man!
1st time I've watched your reactions ,,man you seem like you are having fun!! PTX of course is insane. subbed.
I am!🤣🤣🤣 I love doing these vids! Welcome to the JB Crew so many more vids coming soon 😊
I like that she is the only one wearing Blue contacts. The guys contacts are all the same, more of an Aqua..I just think it stands out. great reaction by the way.
We all know Kevin would have made a most excellent doctor, but thank goodness he took the chance on PTX.
My Heart With You from Evergreen album. Also Bohemian Rhapsody
Kevin can kill the cello whilst doing that beatbox check Radioactive 👀
Was so stoked when I got to see them in 2017. Drove 3 hours to the concert then 3 hours back the night before a final exam. Was worth a point or so off Zoology.
Request their Seasons Of Love as seen on nationwide tv from the 4th of July. Kirstin kills it!
Too many amazing choices. Just follow your heart. I have been following them since they first appeared on The Sing Off in 2011 (I wish that was still on. Great show.), and they DO NOT DISAPPOINT.

Love, love, love your reaction. Thank you for appreciating them the way you do. Avi talks about "Run to You". Check it out...it's an original with 5 part harmony.
1/2 time... Can't Hold Us
Key changes... Can You Feel the Love Tonight ( also listen for Matt's bass line)
oooooo snap! This is going to be dangerous!

You know its bopping when you let up a slip and accidently sing a note or two along.
I just subbed and I'm looking forward to more, but I had to say you talking about the halftime had me laughing. So glad I found your channel 🙂
I love Matt, but I miss Avi too. You should check Avi’s, “Change on the Rise”.
Please keep going down the Home Free rabbit hole!!
oh yea!!!! more to come!
Amazing.
♥️
Thanks 😊
daft punk is my "feel good" band I put on at work over the speakers when i'm having a rough time.
one more time
i'm not usually a thirsty bitch, but god that blue hair, that makeup, she stares into you while singing a beautiful song, it's a powerful video.
You’re reactions make my day. I’m going to beg you to react to Pentatonix covers of Sound of Silence and Bohemian Rhapsody PLEASE!
Appreciate you! I'll def add it to the list!
@@DrummingwithJarvis hope the list isn’t too long yet! Looking forward to it 😁
Love your reactions so much! ❤️❤️❤️ You have to watch their covers of Gold & New Rules to see how far they’ve come. Just wait till Christmas!! I think they’ve put out a Christmas album every year….SOOOOO much to chose from!
They have a good half time at the end of Attention, also. ;-)
uh oh!!! Idk if I can handle it 🤣🤣

The beatboxer (Kevin Olusola) is a very talented guy, you should checkout one of his solo performances, maybe "Down" the Marian Hill cover
yesss will do!
The percussion is Kevin the beatbox
Great reaction! For epic modulations check out Can You Feel the Love Tonight! For sleek half-time section & an amazing chromatic walk down checkout Attention! Carry on!

If you love key changes, check out their cover of Can You Feel the Love Tonight.
If you love a good key change (or 2… or 3) bump their cover of Can You Feel the Love Tonight up on your list. 🤯
You should check out Can You Feel the Love Tonight lots of key changes 💜
I was today years old when I found out this wasnt just one song😀
check out their private mix of this medley. they dont have mics or extra production.
Definitely check out PTX versions of Sound Of Silence, Royals (better than Lorne’s version), and Havana
Only just discovered your channel. Pentatonix kicks butt no matter what they do and Avi Kaplans deep voice just seems to mould it altogether with his deep run through.
Yessssss completely agreed 😊
Have you looked at the music video Superfruit the cover song is Katy perry's Rise....and also dimash the song is SOS you said you liked alot of different octaves and all kinds of music you won't be disappointed
Please check out their original song Love Again!! You will love it!!!!
If you like this kind of acapella stuff, you should check out Berywam too
They filmed this on Avi’s closet!
If you like key changes, try their Lion King cover. 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight'. Your mind will be blown.
Just subbed!
Please check out Avi Kaplan's Change on the Rise
By the way, Run to You is a beautiful song.
