While I heartily agree that Pentatonix’s cover of “Sound of Silence” is amazing, I have to say that “haunting” is a better fit for Geoff Castellucci's new cover of it.
Pentatonix's "Mary did you know" is really great! You really get to hear Kevin (the beatboxer) and Avi (the bass). 😉 I miss those days... Edit: Over 300 likes?! Wow! That's more than I've ever got before! Thanks, everyone! 🥰
I hate that song so much. Basically, “Hey, new mom, did you know you gave birth to a baby who is going to be murdered? But it’ll be this beautiful and glorious thing?” As a mom, if someone were to tell me that, I’d get the hell away from the as fast a possible and go to the police and get my daughter into hiding. It’s such a horrific song that I now can’t stand Pentatonix since they sang about murder as beautiful to a new teen mother.
it's also known as Stereoscopic sound. When one ear hears one thing (or not) while the other hears something different. Technically, all sound is stereoscopic but this is forced for effect and is how Queen did the same section of the song. Also, IT'S KIRSTEN! CURSE-TEN! I forgive you though
@@ShadowyFox_86 Whether it's actual stereophonic (multi-microphone) recording or panning ('forcing' a sound to the left or right in post production), both techniques pre-date Queen, coming to prominence in the 1930s and '40s respectively.
two really great Pentatonix covers you should listen to are Mary Did You Know and Radioactive. In Radioactive they have Lindsey Stirling playing the violin and the beatboxer, Kevin, also plays the cello whilst beatboxing, it's ridiculously good.
i’ve seen pentatonix live four times, and bohemian rhapsody sounds the exact same live, its absolutely stunning. i love seeing people react to an a capella group ive loved for a decade
Her name is Kirstin Maldonado, Avi Kaplan is the bass, Mitch Grassi is the tenor that sang most of the song, Scott Hoying is the blonde one and Kevin Olusola is the beatboxer.
Hannah... when you talk about acapella leaving you shook... nothing makes my eyes metaphorically pop out of my skull in sheer awe more than Pentatonix's "The Sound of Silence" cover. Recommend x1000!!!
The bass staring into your soul is Avi Kaplan and he is amazing! He now does his own music and it’s absolutely gorgeous, highly recommend listening to it!
There is a song that Pentatonix does that you will absolutely love. It's the quietest song they do and when they sing it live they put their microphones down on the floor, stand in a tight circle facing each other, and sing just for themselves, even with a crowd of thousands. Two of the members of Pentatonix have said it's their personal favorite song to sing. I believe they have to stand physically close to each other in order to get the perfect timing and voice blend that they do. It's a cover of a song by The Rescues called "My heart With You". On the official video when you press play it starts: no delay.
My favorite ptx songs are say something, waving through a window, sound of silence, amazing grace, when the party's over, shallow, sing, be my eyes, and everything else is great too!
i am always here for a pentatonix reaction. the guy who does the bass - avi kaplan - has been working on solo stuff recently which is beautiful as well. definitely would recommend
I’m not religious but their version of Amazing Grace makes me forget there was ever any other version before theirs. It’s so good. Makes me cry every time. Also Imagine
The sound effect you are talking about (sound moving from left to right) is called panning. Usually there is a knob labeled "Pan" on a mixer table, turning it will move the actual channel between left and right. Love your reactions btw :)
Ah good I was scrolling through the comments to see if someone had said it already. I actually only learned the term panning from one of the Roomieofficial videos about the music in Encanto bc they worked with it a lot there, you can really tell nicely how the sound travels when the characters are moving, really fun effect to add.
You really need to listen to their arrangement of “Waving Through A Window” from Dear Evan Hansen, as well as their arrangement of Elvis’s “Falling in Love with You”…pure ear tingly goodness.
I remember back in 3rd or 4th grade I was in Music class and that's when I first heard of Pentatonix and I immediately fell in love with them. I believe the song was Daft Punk, and it's still one of my favorites today.
The SPEED with which I clicked on this video cannot be measured i live these videos❤️ A lot of people have recomended songs already but sound of silence or cheerleader are some of my favourite pentatonix songs
Picking songs off Home Free's catalogue is always fun; its got a fantastic lead, obscene bass and beatboxing, and FAR under-appreciated tenor and baritone!
avi kaplan (the bass) YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO HIS SOLO MUSIC I AM BEGGING YOU IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL HE'S AMAZING. I recommend I'll get by, it knows me, and song for the thankful. he has so much more than that tho and it's all amazing
@1:49 is called Panning. It is a mixing and mastering technique in music basically you push the sound to the left or to the right. A similar technique is done in videography where the camera pans from one side of the room to another but the origin of the camera stays the same. Like moving your head left and right to glance across the room
A current acapella group that can give Pentatonix some real competition is Voice Play. You should really react to Voice Play's cover of Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters". It will give you the tingles! If you want to stick with Pentatonix for a while longer you should react to Pentatonix doing a cover of "Radio Active" by Imagin Dragons featuring Lindsay Sterling. Outstanding!!
I'm so glad you reacted to this one, Hannah! It's just incredible. They waited for six years before they attempted it because they wanted to do it justice. Brian May from Queen thinks it's one of the best covers of Bohemian Rhapsody ever made. The amazing thing is that they can do this live and Mitch does the guitar solo just with his mouth (the megaphone was just a prop for the video!). Mitch (dark haired counter tenor singing most of the solo on this one) and Scott (tall, blonde baritone) used to have a side channel called Superfruit where they sang covers, amazing originals and did a lot of fun things. From a vocal coach perspective I would love you to react to their version of Defying Gravity which Mitch performed (singing the Elphaba part!) as a birthday present for Scott who is a huge Wicked fan. Scott sings the Glinda part in a really dodgy blonde wig but shows off his range as he goes quite high in his falsetto! Mitch has on very patchy green make-up but he sings it in the original key and with the opt-up part at the end that few Elphaba's attempt. They also do a very fun alcohol-fuelled Frozen medley with Kirstie which I think you would find lots to comment on from a vocal perspective. If you react to either of these remember to watch after the 'subscribe' screen as there are bloopers! In terms of Pentatonix, I would really recommend some of their much under-rated originals. I think you would like 'Run to you' which is haunting and really beautiful, also 'Love again' is amazing EDM-like with a Steampunk/alien vibe and 'Sing' is a real bop and includes lots of their famous actor and UA-camr friends. Can't sleep love, Be my eyes, Coffee in bed and Happy now are also amazing. In terms of covers, Amazing Grace and The Sound of Silence (which are with the Matt - the bass who replaced Avi - the serial killer-stare one in this song! - in 2017). Also I know it's Christmassy, but 'Mary did you know' is gorgeous, though it's an older one. I love watching your reactions, Hannah, more please!
They did this song as their last song of the show when I took my daughter to see them a couple of weeks ago. Poor Mitch was sick but he still sang the hell out of this and it still sounded incredible! Scott also hit some pretty crazy high notes through the show.
The side to side effect is 'panning' (left to right or right to left) and Queen did it for this song on the 'Night At The Opera' album when they recorded this way back in 1975. I was also pleasantly surprised when I heard Queen do it back then. They (Queen) use the left and right channels to a much greater degree on another song on that same album - The Prophet Song.
That was a great reaction! Aren't they great!? They do this live in concert and it sounds the same, "electric guitar" and all! If you want a full body stunning Acapella experience, please react to Pentatonix doing "Imagine", by John Lennon... O...M...G! You have to do that one! Thank you so much for sharing your reactions and love of music wirh us!
The guy with the smolder is named Avi Kaplan and since leaving the group he has produced some AMAZING music, his most popular is Change on the Rise HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend listening to his music.
Avi Kaplan doesn't just stare "into your soul." Avi sings his way in to your soul as well. His "All is Well -- 7 Layers Session," and "When I'm a Fool -- Live at Sunset Sound," are must listens to get started with his solo work.
I was gonna say 3D sound. It's used sometimes in asmr videos. Your term sounds much more scientific 😊 The first time I heard it was a Tom hiddleston reading a little bit of a book. Completely floored me 😅
Hannah I'm so glad to see you better, with the happy that we are used to see in your videos. I see your effort to get better and to be better and I'm produ of u. Also, greaaat react
The effect you asked about is called panning, as the vocals pan from one side to the other. Other acapella music you should react to? That's easy, anything by VoicePlay. You can't miss with one of their songs.
Aloha Hannah, the effect as others pointed out in the introduction is panning, specifically hard panning (as in hard left and hard right). Queen were notorious for using the full stereo spectrum (left to right blend or hard right or left) when mixing their music. If you listen to Somebody to love carefully, you’ll notice certain harmonies were mixed left in the background ‘gospel’ choir vocals, while other harmonies were mixed to the right speaker.
I don’t know if it was said before but the effect where sound goes from left to right is called “panning”. It also can make different instruments and vocal tracks more prominent in the final bounce of a song.
Bastille's "Pompeii" done a cappella by Redefined. Their "Nintendo" medley is also great. Another older piece, Sacremento State Jazz Singers doing a Battlestar-Galactica-influenced arrangement of "All Along the Watchtower". VoicePlay is a well known a cappella group, but I only know 1 song they've done, Imagine Dragon's "Enemy" (theme song of Netflix's Arcane, based on Riot Game's League of Legends) featuring kpop idol AleXa (winner of 1st ever American Song Contest)
Mary, did you know? Always nails me in the feels they just wow me with that. Though, not going to lie their version of O come all ye faithful will mindblow you. The sound of silence was emotionally overwhelming for me (my dad really loved it). In your Hallelujah video you said you really feel music deeply-- I get it. I do, I cry a lot listening to their music it just hits me so so very hard because of the emotion they manage to put into it.
The best part that you didn't notice (or at least mention) was Avi and Kevin doing literally every single instrument except that guitar solo. Kevin is such an amazing masterpiece. You absolutely must *experience* their mastermix of Forget You and Since You've Been Gone from America's Got Talent
Highly recommend Homefree if you haven't heard them before! I believe the base from Pentatonics collaborated with them on a version of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" 😁
Definitely recommend PTX's versions of 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight' (from the Lion King), Hallelujah if you somehow haven't heard it yet, Amazing Grace, and 'Say Something'.
Thank you Hannah!!!! That was beautiful. My goosebumps had goosebumps on them. Their voices are so clear and their ranges are unbelievable. You are just fantastic. I am a 67 year old grandma who is very new to podcasts. I found your site just a couple of months ago and have watched a ton of your podcasts thus far. You inspired me to binge Glee so, over a long weekend I watched all 6 seasons. All I can say is WOW! I look forward to more of your podcasts in the future. A New Fan, Billie Barrett💖🎶
I’m sure someone else already commented, but from the first couple comments I couldn’t see. Going back and forth between headphones is called panning. You can pan to either side while editing sound tracks. Going between the two can create an awesome effect when used correctly
i love the prayer and evergreen by pentatonix, highly recommend. The prayer isn't really a christmas song so you wouldn't have to wait to react and release that one.
I literally saw them in Melbourne last week and they were so incredible!!! Just as amazing in person as their recorded versions. One of their more recent albums called ‘The Lucky Ones’ is an original album and all of the songs slap so hard!!! Can’t wait to see you reacting to more of their stuff! ❤
This cover was one of THE COOLEST things I had ever seen or heard when I first ran across it. I had to goad my Mom into watching the video. She has a very limited scope of music that she listens to and she is not on board with very much that happened later than the mid-70's. Before the 1980's even started, she quit listening for new stuff. So I mentioned that it was a cover of Queen and she was resistant with 'Nobody does it like Queen did it.' To that I said 'Fair enough. But have you ever seen a guy turn into a Guitar before?' It was enough to peak her interest so she watched it with me. She really enjoyed it. I can occasionally get her to listen to a few things but I know her limits. There are things I would never ask her to listen to since I already know she would be repulsed by. Every once in a while I can get her to listen to some covers of older songs but the fun part is getting her to listen to newer songs that are covered in older styles. Post-Modern Jukebox is awesome for that but she actually likes Pentatonix now. PTX has covered a lot of older music. They have a medley for that, actually. (I THINK it is called) 'The History Of Music', or something like that. I am sorry, I have a really bad memory. :)
So, their names are scott, mitch, kirstin, kevin, and avi (which is not on ptx anymore) and that thing where you hear the music on both sides of the headphones happens EVERYTIME you listen to bohemian rhapsody, every cover
You should check out Avi Kaplan's solo music. Change on the Rise is his most popular, Black is the Color of my true Loves Hair with Peter Hollens showcases his beautiful lower register. And his latest album the Shooter Jennings produced Floating on a Dream shows of his impressive range and impressive song writing abilities. All 11 tracks are amazing and the remakes for The 7 Layers Sessions and the Live from Sunset Sound recordings are spectacular.
I love pentatonix and I love their songs. There is another acapella group called Home Free. Their tenor singer Austin Brown did a rendition of Bring Him Home that I think you would love!!
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE and even pay for you to break down there songs for like 2 hours. Just every detail of how and why they do what they do with there amazing voices.
If you love acapella, you'll love Home Free for sure! Their (country) covers are amazing. They've also collabed with Avi Kaplan (the (former) bass from Pentatonix) on Ring of Fire. It's so good!
Everyone is going to be recommending more PTX and they're great but dont forget Home Free and Voice Play. Geoff from Voice Play also does a lot of solo work that you and your audience would enjoy.
Also if you wanna react to more: Scott-Blonde Tall One Mitch-Brunette Little One with high voice Kirstie- Beautiful Soprano with awesome hair Avi-Low Bass Voice Kevin-Beatboxing god. ❤
sound of silence done by pentatonix is hauntingly amazing
While I heartily agree that Pentatonix’s cover of “Sound of Silence” is amazing, I have to say that “haunting” is a better fit for Geoff Castellucci's new cover of it.
I looooove their cover of it
I had to do desert island discs at work (but only three songs) and I used Pentatonix Sound of Silence as one of the choices. Beautiful
YES
Geoff did an amazing one
Pentatonix's "Mary did you know" is really great! You really get to hear Kevin (the beatboxer) and Avi (the bass). 😉 I miss those days...
Edit: Over 300 likes?! Wow! That's more than I've ever got before! Thanks, everyone! 🥰
I havent really been as interested in ptx since matt joined, avi rocks!
@@christopherjorissen5582 I know, right!
Ouh that's a good one! ❤

The sound effect in the headphones is called panning! There's tons of fun audios out there that really scratch that brain itch☺
I felt that even without wearing head phones it was such an experience but weird feeling 😂
...and it pays homage to the original, as Queen also pans at that spot.
The "easy come, easy go" right before the l-r pan changes from stereophonic to monophonic, something Queen also did at that point as well.
it's also known as Stereoscopic sound. When one ear hears one thing (or not) while the other hears something different. Technically, all sound is stereoscopic but this is forced for effect and is how Queen did the same section of the song. Also, IT'S KIRSTEN! CURSE-TEN! I forgive you though
The first time I heard it was in 'Back in the USSR' by The Beatles in 1968. It's been around a while!
You should react to much more from Pentatonix, they’re my favorite acapella group. 😊
Same
And me too, more Pentatonix please.
They’re my favourite group PERIOD.
@Itz Ryder excuse me what??? Pentatonix is so good! :(
@Derallas omg ikr!❤
That shift from ear to ear is "Panning" and it exists in the original Queen song, so it's a tribute to that
Am I remembering right that Queen pioneered that particular technique? I know there was a lot more of it after Bohemian Rhapsody
@@ShadowyFox_86 they were pushing quadraphonic sound and doing some cool things with it

I highly recommend Pentatonix's versions of "My Favorite Things" and "Mary Did You Know"
We always want more Pentatonix reactions.
I think the harmonies in Pentatonix's Run To You would melt your brain. Their version of My Favorite Things is also a lot of fun.
Yess, run to you is so so so good!!
two really great Pentatonix covers you should listen to are Mary Did You Know and Radioactive. In Radioactive they have Lindsey Stirling playing the violin and the beatboxer, Kevin, also plays the cello whilst beatboxing, it's ridiculously good.
I love Radioactive!!
i’ve seen pentatonix live four times, and bohemian rhapsody sounds the exact same live, its absolutely stunning. i love seeing people react to an a capella group ive loved for a decade
What i love about the panning is that it is reminiscent of the original queen version from night at the opera (1975)
any pentatonix reaction is always an instant click for me. it's so fun to hear what professionals have to say about em
You should react more to Pentatonix and Voiceplay. They are both amazing acapella group.
Their version of Sound of Silence, Imagine, and My Favorite Things are all incredible. A lot of their songs are really just amazing.
Her name is Kirstin Maldonado, Avi Kaplan is the bass, Mitch Grassi is the tenor that sang most of the song, Scott Hoying is the blonde one and Kevin Olusola is the beatboxer.

I don’t know if it was said before but the effect where sound goes from left to right is called “panning”. It also can make different instruments and vocal tracks more prominent in the final bounce of a song.
Bastille's "Pompeii" done a cappella by Redefined. Their "Nintendo" medley is also great. Another older piece, Sacremento State Jazz Singers doing a Battlestar-Galactica-influenced arrangement of "All Along the Watchtower". VoicePlay is a well known a cappella group, but I only know 1 song they've done, Imagine Dragon's "Enemy" (theme song of Netflix's Arcane, based on Riot Game's League of Legends) featuring kpop idol AleXa (winner of 1st ever American Song Contest)
A boyband (no longer together) I used to be obsessed with called roadtrip. They did a cover of bohemian rhapsody as well. It was also fabulous.
Mary, did you know? Always nails me in the feels they just wow me with that. Though, not going to lie their version of O come all ye faithful will mindblow you. The sound of silence was emotionally overwhelming for me (my dad really loved it). In your Hallelujah video you said you really feel music deeply-- I get it. I do, I cry a lot listening to their music it just hits me so so very hard because of the emotion they manage to put into it.
The best part that you didn't notice (or at least mention) was Avi and Kevin doing literally every single instrument except that guitar solo. Kevin is such an amazing masterpiece. You absolutely must *experience* their mastermix of Forget You and Since You've Been Gone from America's Got Talent
Highly recommend Homefree if you haven't heard them before! I believe the base from Pentatonics collaborated with them on a version of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" 😁
Definitely recommend PTX's versions of 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight' (from the Lion King), Hallelujah if you somehow haven't heard it yet, Amazing Grace, and 'Say Something'.
Thank you Hannah!!!! That was beautiful. My goosebumps had goosebumps on them. Their voices are so clear and their ranges are unbelievable. You are just fantastic. I am a 67 year old grandma who is very new to podcasts. I found your site just a couple of months ago and have watched a ton of your podcasts thus far. You inspired me to binge Glee so, over a long weekend I watched all 6 seasons. All I can say is WOW! I look forward to more of your podcasts in the future.

I SCREAMED AT THIS TITLE. Can’t wait to see your reaction to Mitch’s megaphone!!!
From memory the alternating left and right channel thing was part of the original recordings from Queen ... and yes, it's amazingly fun!
I’m sure someone else already commented, but from the first couple comments I couldn’t see. Going back and forth between headphones is called panning. You can pan to either side while editing sound tracks. Going between the two can create an awesome effect when used correctly
i love the prayer and evergreen by pentatonix, highly recommend. The prayer isn't really a christmas song so you wouldn't have to wait to react and release that one.
I literally saw them in Melbourne last week and they were so incredible!!! Just as amazing in person as their recorded versions. One of their more recent albums called ‘The Lucky Ones’ is an original album and all of the songs slap so hard!!! Can’t wait to see you reacting to more of their stuff! ❤
I saw them in Perth ❤
This cover was one of THE COOLEST things I had ever seen or heard when I first ran across it.
I had to goad my Mom into watching the video. She has a very limited scope of music that she listens to and she is not on board with very much that happened later than the mid-70's. Before the 1980's even started, she quit listening for new stuff.
So I mentioned that it was a cover of Queen and she was resistant with 'Nobody does it like Queen did it.'
To that I said 'Fair enough. But have you ever seen a guy turn into a Guitar before?'
It was enough to peak her interest so she watched it with me. She really enjoyed it.
I can occasionally get her to listen to a few things but I know her limits. There are things I would never ask her to listen to since I already know she would be repulsed by. Every once in a while I can get her to listen to some covers of older songs but the fun part is getting her to listen to newer songs that are covered in older styles. Post-Modern Jukebox is awesome for that but she actually likes Pentatonix now.
PTX has covered a lot of older music. They have a medley for that, actually. (I THINK it is called) 'The History Of Music', or something like that. I am sorry, I have a really bad memory. :)
So, their names are scott, mitch, kirstin, kevin, and avi (which is not on ptx anymore) and that thing where you hear the music on both sides of the headphones happens EVERYTIME you listen to bohemian rhapsody, every cover
Oh my goooosh it’s pentatonix related, Kirstin and her then fiancé have a Disney love medley they did with Voctave that is to die for!
You should check out Avi Kaplan's solo music. Change on the Rise is his most popular, Black is the Color of my true Loves Hair with Peter Hollens showcases his beautiful lower register. And his latest album the Shooter Jennings produced Floating on a Dream shows of his impressive range and impressive song writing abilities. All 11 tracks are amazing and the remakes for The 7 Layers Sessions and the Live from Sunset Sound recordings are spectacular.
Even Pearl loved it. She couldn’t resist coming over to see who the heck was covering Bohemian Rhapsody.
I feel full body chills every time i listen to there music
I love pentatonix and I love their songs. There is another acapella group called Home Free. Their tenor singer Austin Brown did a rendition of Bring Him Home that I think you would love!!
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE and even pay for you to break down there songs for like 2 hours. Just every detail of how and why they do what they do with there amazing voices.
If you love acapella, you'll love Home Free for sure! Their (country) covers are amazing. They've also collabed with Avi Kaplan (the (former) bass from Pentatonix) on Ring of Fire. It's so good!
Everyone is going to be recommending more PTX and they're great but dont forget Home Free and Voice Play. Geoff from Voice Play also does a lot of solo work that you and your audience would enjoy.
It's a sound board mixing term - pan or panning. It gives a sense of right/left movement in sound sources, sometimes exaggerated.
This is so amazing. I love their live performances more than anything.
Also if you wanna react to more:
Scott-Blonde Tall One
Mitch-Brunette Little One with high voice
Kirstie- Beautiful Soprano with awesome hair
Avi-Low Bass Voice
Kevin-Beatboxing god. ❤
