    The signs show what connects them and what makes them unique, when a card is passed between two, they both share that, when they flip it it shows something different. They are very diverse and yet soooo connected. The original message was strong, but they leveled it up.

    Yes and no... cards flipped is about that person, when they pass the card it is the connection between the two people Mitch, Scott and both Gay, Scott and Avi both men, Avi and Kevin both American, Kevin and Kirstie are both Christian. They are all connected.

    I absolutely LOVE how the cards represent each individual and what makes each different, but also, with the passing of the card how it connects each person to the next...
    Mitch & Scott~Gay
    Scott & Avi~ Man
    Avi & Kevin~ American
    Kevin & Kirsty~ Christian
    *not to mention their individual attributes*

    (& yes, the pentatonic scale is EXACTLY how Scott came up with the name of the band. X on the end for style ☺)

    Hi guys! Nice reaction. Avi left because his mum was sick with cancer and the group was on tour at the time...plus they usually had a rather hectic schedule even when home recording and doing performances. Avi found it difficult to get home for frequent visits. Plus I suspect he'd wanted a solo career for a while and chose to leave the group. He has a solo career no...and his mum survived., so all's good.
    Yes...the sign passed is first, what the person holding the sign identifies as and as it's passed, what they have in common with the person they pass the sign to.

    • @honeybun4817

      Avi left the band in late 2017 as PTX bass and Matt joined them after they interviewed replacements as the new bass. Kirsten and Mitch met and became friends in their early teens and then met Scott…all three involved in theater arts and choir throughout high school.

    We like to say that #Pentatonix doesn't do covers, they do upgrades, and for the most part it's true. But how do you upgrade a song that's already perfect? Well, if you're Pentatonix you look for a way to make that song more itself. In the case of "Imagine" Pentatonix treats the song and the song's writer with the utmost respect, and engages in a dialogue.
    John Lennon saw that things like religion and nationality divide us, so he suggested that we get rid of those things. But Pentatonix sees that it isn't possible to get rid of religions and nations, so they propose another solution. You see, the real problem is something much deeper than religion, or nationality, or even money. The real problem is the human tendency to reject people who are different. So Pentatonix looks for ways around that problem, and then they show us how a healthy community deals with differences.
    First Pentatonix looks for and finds the things they share with each other, the ways they're alike. And in the process they also find the things that make them individuals. And because they've already found the things that draw them together they can not only accept their differences but celebrate them. Doing that, looking at differences clearly and with love, gives them greater insight. It makes them a stronger, wiser, more compassionate community, and they all benefit from their diversity. Instead of dividing them diversity draws them together, until they can look at everyone and see the one thing that we all share - we're all human. And this means that when they meet someone who is very different indeed, in ways that otherwise might seem bizarre or dangerous, they can still see that fundamental truth, that we're all human, and we're all in this together.
    Unlike everyone in Pentatonix, I'm old enough to have heard John sing "Imagine" live. And that means I'm old enough to have the evening news from December 8th, 1980 seared on my memory: John Lennon, dead. Killed by an assassin who ambushed him when he was coming home after an evening out with his wife, Yoko. For those of us who remember that night, the grief and shock remain as strong now as they were over 43 years ago.
    John had only 40 years on this planet. We have no way to know what else he would have given us if he'd been able to live out his full life; all we know is what he DID give us, his perfect anthem, "Imagine." I wish he'd been able to see this video. It would have made him so proud.

    I love this 👌 Everyone should be treated the same with respect. But the song was amazing and the harmony is incredible ❤️

  • @margretrosenberg420
    @margretrosenberg420 Місяць тому +3

    The members of Pentatonix, in this song:
    • The first soloist is Avi (pronounced Ah'-vee, emphasis on the first syllable) Kaplan, lyric bass. When describing a man's vocal range, the term "lyric" means that the actual range exceeds the nominal range. Avi is an operatically trained basso profundo - his lowest notes have blown out speakers in live performances - but his range extends upward to somewhere in the middle of a normal tenor range.
    • The second soloist is Scott Hoying, lyric baritone. Scott's range begins somewhere in the middle of a normal bass range on the low end, and extends upward through a normal tenor range. In live performances Scott can and does take over the bass harmony line whenever the bass has a solo. Scott is known for his riffs and runs.
    • The third soloist is Mitch Grassi (pronounced Grah'-see, emphasis on the first syllable), natural contratenor. Mitch has a range of just over six octaves and switches seamlessly between chest voice, mixed voice, and head voice. He's known for his ethereal high vocals. Shawn Stockman, of Boyz II Men has said that Mitch has "one of the prettiest voices I have ever heard in my life." And we call the stunned look people get the first time they hear Mitch "being Mitch slapped."
    • The fifth soloist is Kirstin (also known as Kirstie, which rhymmes weith thirsty) Maldonado, the only woman in Pentatonix. Kirstin sings anywhere from low alto through coloratura soprano, the highest soprano range, and she has fantastic whistle notes on top of that. Lately Pentatonix has begun referring to her as an "alto soprano."
    • The sixth soloist is Kevin Olusola (pronounced Oh-loosh"-oh-luh', primary emphasis on the second syllable, secondary emphasis on the fourth syllable), beatboxer extraordinaire. Somewhere there may be a better beatboxer than Kevin, but if so I've never encountered him or her. Kevin is generally too busy being the entire percussion section to sing, but when he does sing he has a lovely tenor voice that occasionally dips into the uppermost reaches of baritone, and he's known for the beauty of his falsetto. He's also a pretty good rapper. Kevin has perfect pitch. He began piano lessons at age 4, cello at age 6, and alto saxophone at age 10. He beatboxes while playing the cello, a technique he calls "celloboxing." He performed at Carnegie Hall twice when he was a teenager, once on the piano and once on the saxophone. He has a pre-med degree from Yale and had been accepted to Yale Medical School before he decided to become a professional musician instead of a brilliant surgeon. He speaks five languages fluently: English, French, Spanish, German, and Mandarin Chinese. He's one of the kindest people in the world, and when he laughs he makes the whole planet seem like a brighter place.
    Not in this song:
    In 2017 Avi found it necessary to resign from Pentatonix, for a variety of personal reasons. He has since gone on to have a very successful solo career and I highly recommend subscribing to his UA-cam channel, which you can find here: youtube.com/@AviKaplanMusic
    Avi's replacement joined in either late 2017 or early 2018 (depending on how you figure it) and has now been with Pentatonix longer than Avi was. You'll see him in all of their newer videos:
    • The second black member of Pentatonix is Matt Sallee (pronounced Suh-lee', emphasis on the second syllable), lyric bass. In addition to being the newest member of Pentatonix Matt is also the youngest member, and I'm told that bass voices improve with age. Matt's range seems to be growing on a daily basis right now. His lowest notes don't blow out speakers (though they may within a year or two) but on his high end Matt reaches nearly the top of a normal tenor range. I believe that Matt has the largest range of any member of Pentatonix, past or present.

    😊❤ Hi 😅 I love your reactions! And you are spot on with many points! Since so many others throughly commented on the cards, ect., I have one more tidbit for you! The black gentleman is Kevin and he is normally the beat boxer of the group. But as you can see he also has a beautiful voice! So, this is one of the few songs where you do get full 5 part harmony throughout the entire song!! 😊❤❤

    You hit it with the mention of the 5-note Pentatonic scale - that was the inspiration for the name Pentatonix. They had to come up with a name when they were getting ready to appear on the NBC TV show The Sing-Off in 2011 and since there are 5 members in the group, the name seemed to fit well, so they just changed the final letter to "x" and went on to win the show!
    On the cards: every card a member holds applies to that person. When a card is passed between two members, what is on the card applies to both members, since both members are holding the same card. So the cards both unify and distinguish each of the members - something that reflects the philosophy of the song.

    They do originals as well, and I highly recommend Sing, and Love Me When I Don't. Everyone else's suggestions are great, too. Another one to check out is The Sound of Silence. It features their "new" bass (he's been singing with them for something like six or seven years now).

    Pentatonix a "brief" background.
    They won The Sing Off in 2011. They made a guest starring appearance on America′s Got Talent as non−competitors a couple of years after that.
    The founding members are:-
    Scott Hoying (tall blond guy, natural baritone but has an impressive five−to−six octave range, can go all the way up to high tenor and down to bass, sings the bass lines when the usual bass singer takes the lead);

    Kirstin "Kirstie" (Rhymes with "Thirsty") Maldonado (the only female member, natural mezzo soprano, but can go down to low alto and as high as upper soprano, also can sing in whistle notes that are off the scale); For a time in 2018 between the group’s tours, had the female lead on Broadway in the production of “Kinky Boots”.
    Mitch Grassi (a true contra−tenor, can hit high notes in his chest voice with ease and go WAY higher in his falsetto, also with ease);
    Avriel "Avi" Kaplan (dark beard and long hair), true basso profundo, trained as an opera singer, also can go up into the tenor range; and
    Kevin "KO" Olusola (beatboxer extraordinaire, also is a world−class cellist who plays cello on some of their songs, has a beautiful high tenor voice and gets occasional lead vocal solos as well, graduated pre−med from Yale and speaks several languages including Mandarin Chinese).
    Kirstie, Scott & Mitch grew up together in Arlington, Texas, and began performing together as children in local youth musical theater. They ended up in high school together and performed in the choir. While there, they formed an a cappella group called The Trio which had several performance videos go viral on UA-cam, most notably a cover of Lady Gaga′s "Telephone". The three of them are best friends and consider themselves to be almost siblings.
    Scott & Kirstie (who were a class year ahead of Mitch) both graduated high school in 2010 and went their separate ways to different colleges, Scott at USC and Kirstie at Oklahoma.
    While at USC, Scott joined a USC−based a cappella group called the SoCal VoCals, where he met alumnus Ben Bram, who was now an arranger and vocal coach for the NBC TV show The Sing Off, an a cappella competition show. Ben convinced Scott to get The Trio to audition for the show. The three reunited (Mitch had to skip high school graduation ceremonies to go) in Los Angeles for the audition.
    They found out that the rules had changed, so they needed at least five members to audition. Ben put them together with Avi (a native of Visalia, California), who he knew from Avi′s performing days at Mount San Antonio College in California. They found Kevin (from Kentucky) through one of his UA-cam videos that had gone viral featuring him playing the cello and beatboxing at the same time, a talent that Kevin coined as "Cello−Boxing".
    Kevin arrived in Los Angeles literally the day before the audition! Scott came up with the name "Pentatonix" after the pentatonic scale. They performed a re−arrangement of "The Telephone" for the audition and passed, despite having been together as a five−piece group for less that 24 hours!
    They won The Sing Off that season (all of the performances are available on UA-cam), in which they received a substantial cash prize AND a record contract with Epic Records. They pooled their prize winnings together and all moved to Los Angeles, and all got apartments right next door to each other in the same building.
    But just a week later, Epic dropped them because the marketing people didn′t think an a cappella group could sell records.
    Instead of giving up, they were determined and began recording their own songs on UA-cam, hiring Ben Bram as their producer and arranger. These usually consisted of the five of them sitting on a couch and performing cover songs live.
    Several of the videos went viral, and Sony (the parent company of Epic) decided to give them another chance by placing them on one of their smaller labels, Madison Gate. They released two secular EPs and one Christmas EP on Madison Gate, all of which were strong sellers.
    But when their cover of a medley of songs by Daft Punk not only went super−viral, but also won them their first Grammy, they were promoted all the way up to RCA Records, Sony′s top label.
    They began writing and producing their own songs in addition to their covers, began putting out a Christmas album just about annually (which has become their best−selling genre), and have had multi−platinum album sales, sold−out world tours, and have won two additional Grammys.
    Avi began getting burned out with all of the touring and heavy recording schedule, was suffering from anxiety and personal problems, and learned that his mother had been diagnosed with cancer in 2017. He announced he was departing from the group and taking some time away from the music industry.
    Matt Sallee (from Baltimore) joined them in September 2017. He did only become official when they renewed their RCA contract in February 2018, but he recorded with them in September as a featured artist and went on their Christmas tour as a featured artist, as well. When he attended the audition for the group, he had already mastered the Bass part for most if not all their past catalogue. He was successful and has proved that he fits in well with the group.
    If you think there have been other changes to the line up - look again. This is the ONLY change. Kirstie and Mitch are like chameleons and change looks frequently.
    It is an often debated subject among the Pentaholics as to just how soon we introduce the "Beginners Guide" as we don't want to overdo the introduction. This is a compilation of snips of a whole load of songs which PTX have released. It highlights each member with some of their solos and then a brief history in video. It is quite long - 14+ minutes and is a little dated now (Feb 2020) but is a good watch ua-cam.com/video/lDxIfwfCmQE/v-deo.html&pp=ygUdYmVnaW5uZXJzIGd1aWRlIHRvIHBlbnRhdG9uaXg%3D.
    After a year away from music, Avi has now returned as a phenomenal solo artist in the Folk/Americana/Roots genre.
    Ben Bram has been in charge of their production, including arranging and directing from the beginning. He is often referred to as the sixth member. Scott and Kevin are major players in the arrangements, but every member contributes. A good watch is "The Recording of Evergreen" where a camera was invited into the studio for the second week of recording/
    Also, all members are songwriters for both Pentatonix and their own solo work.
    Ed Boyer who mixes everything of theirs (even the HWB Livestream) is the one who pulled Ben Bram into the sing off in the first place.
    They have Grammy wins for Daft Punk Medley, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, and Jolene featuring Dolly Parton. They were nominated for a 4th Grammy for their album Evergreen, but didn't win. Another nomination for Holidays Around the World album in the 2024 list!
    Kirstie became a new mum which caused a pause in touring after their Evergreen Christmas tour 2021. Mid March 2023 Kirstie has announced that she is engaged to Ben Hausdorff, their videographer. They married 22/04/24!
    They have a star on the Hollywood walk of fame installed in February 2023. They are the only a capella group with a star!
    They came 3rd in the 2023 Masked Singer performing as "California Rolls" being unmasked in May 23.
    Things you need to know because if you get these wrong Pentaholics will come after you with pitch forks and torches! Ha Ha!!
    1- There is NO Auto-Tune; what you hear is actually what they sing. They really are that good. One exception is the 90's Dance Medley where Cher used autotune as an effect - so they had to.
    2- What produces everything that you hear in the video, you see in the official video. If there is an instrument used in the music, you see it on screen. In the 2022 Christmas album, there are some instruments not featured throughout the album.
    3- They never release something on video they can’t reproduce with the exact same quality live on-stage.
    4. It is "Pentatonix" there is no "The".

    Subscribed.
    If you decide to continue down this rabbit hole you can expect a LOT of new subscriptions; Pentatonix fans are enthusiastic about reaction videos to anything our favorite band puts out.
    Some useful terminology:
    • pentaholic = Pentatonix fan
    • PTX = abbreviation for Pentatonix - extremely useful in searches
    • the trio = Kirstin, Mitch, and Scott
    • Mitch slap = what you get the first time you realize how incredible Mitch's voice is.
    • Avi-lanche = like a Mitch slap, except with Avi instead of Mitch.
    • KO = like a Mitch slap or Avi-lanche, except with Kevin Olusola.
    (Note: You never become immune to Mitch slaps, Avi-lanches, KOs, or the similar, un-named things that Kirstin, Scott, and Matt do. They always have the ability to surprise us.)
    You can't go wrong listening to anything Pentatonix has released; it's all gorgeous. But all pentaholics have our own personal favorites that we like to recommend. These are some of my favorites:
    • "Hallelujah" (the official video, with Avi)
    • "Hallelujah" ( a recent live performance, with Matt: ua-cam.com/video/FqphhPapkoc/v-deo.htmlsi=tC6Ew07JGeQKQvDL )
    • "The Prayer"
    • "Bohemian Rhapsody"
    • "Sound of Silence"
    • "Run To You" (an original, written by Avi and Kevin)
    • "Happy Now" (another original)
    • "Daft Punk Medley" (their first Grammy winner)
    • "O Come All Ye Faithful"
    • "O Holy Night" (they did a totally new recording for their 2023 Christmas album; you can find the official video here: ua-cam.com/video/ReJAU2mXm8w/v-deo.htmlsi=upj2Q3vLqigVEtgm )
    • "Pure Imagination / Christmas Time is Here" (preferably the live Vevo recording)
    • "Kiss From a Rose" (preferably the live Vevo recording)
    • "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch"
    • "The Lucky Ones" (an original, written by Scott)
    • "Thank You" (an original, written by Scott and his then fiancé, now husband, Mark Manio Hoying, shortly after the end of COVID lockdown, about how much easier it was to get through that time because they were together)
    • "The Kevin Show/Kevin's Fifth." This is a live feed from a concert they gave in Owensboro, Kentucky, Kevin's home town: ua-cam.com/video/DbCasvcNx78/v-deo.html and this is the very special performance of "Kevin's Fifth" (without "The Kevin Show") from Kevin's birthday in 2022: ua-cam.com/video/7m0g7xThIWs/v-deo.htmlsi=99F7iG5qkdgPCm43
    Additionally, IF you're familiar with _"The Wizard Of Oz"_ (the 1939 movie starring Judy Garland), I recommend "Todrick Hall - The Wizard of Ahhhs (ft. Pentatonix)": ua-cam.com/video/QkVeKb2igrg/v-deo.html If you've never seen the movie it won't make sense, so take care of that first. One advantage to reacting to "The Wizard of Ahhhs" is that you won't need to obscure the video to avoid copyright claims. Most of Pentatonix's copyrights are owned by their publisher, RCA, and RCA is notorious for getting reaction videos taken down over copyright issues, but the copyrights for "The Wizard of Ahhhs" are owned by Todrick Hall, and Todrick seems to be more interested in good publicity than in stomping on innocent reactors. (I regret to say that Todrick has gotten a lot of bad publicity in recent years, for very good reasons; he appears to be something of a jerk. But making copyright claims against other UA-camrs isn't one of his vices.)

    LGBTQ+ is Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer (just generally not hetero) the "+" stands for people in that community who identify differently or they are straight allies of the LGBTQ+ community.

    Q is for Queer. Yes, the name Pentatonix was derived from the five note Pentatonic Scale. Lovely reaction! I really enjoyed it. Its tough to recommend anything because they have such a huge catalog. It really depends on what you like. Maybe check out something more recent, like their Vevo Studio Live version of their Kiss From a Rose cover.

    I fear that you may not be able to keep this reaction up, due to copyright claims, though you pause it enough that you may be safe. Pentatonix loves UA-cam reactions and reactors; they're well aware that reaction videos have helped to make them the success that they are today. Unfortunately, their copyrights are owned by their publisher, RCA, and RCA doesn't share their love of reaction videos. RCA is notorious for making copyright claims that get reaction videos taken down.
    The claims all seem to be about the video, not the music, and there are several strategies people use to keep their reactions up. Some people only react to live performances. This works, but it's limiting. In general, Pentatonix is as good live as they are in their official releases, but that's musically; there are a few of their official videos that have important video effects that can't be duplicated live. The most obvious one is "Imagine," but several others spring to mind. Also, if you only react to live performances you can't react to any "Behind the Scenes" or "Making of" videos.
    Another strategy is to pause the video frequently. This is probably a good idea (be sure to rewind a bit whenever you do this), but the definition of "frequent" is subjective so I don't recommend it as your only protection. What seems to work best is to slightly mask the video, combined with frequent pauses. Some people put a translucent "PENTATONIX" or "COPYRIGHT" over the video; others put what appears to be a window with raindrops on it over the video. Remember, the pentaholics are here to see your reaction, not the video - we've seen the video numerous times already. We only need to be able to see enough of it to be sure what exactly you're reacting to, in real time.

      You give everything they do a thumbs down. Why do you even bother to click on reactions for them?
