Hey Tara. You want one that will give you goosebumps and tarantula legs, review their "Run To You". I believe it is theirs and not a cover. I don't believe it's live, but it is totally amazing. My absolute favorite of all of their songs. Look for the one that has a black background. You won't be sorry. Let me know when you review it. Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!! ~Candy.
@@akinpaws I had never heard that version before. It doesn't cause the same reaction in me. It's good, but not as good nor as powerful, in my opinion. The other my be studio, but it is so much stronger. Maybe Tara can react to them both and compare.... The one with the black background is my go to favorite.
I tear up almost every time I hear Avi in this song, omg. I can't with him. Every single note of his in this song is the definition of gorgeous. This song is part of my nightly sleep playlist, too. I don't even care if it's a Chrstmas song, it's too perfect not to fall asleep to it.
Aside from the fact that I agree let me just thank you for pointing out the "ebb & flow" comment because English isn't my first language and I couldn't understand those words even though I'm at my 10th replay 😄 Thank you again!
It’s the “let’s listen to that again” followed by the eye rolling into the back of the head that really gives it away. He is amazing though, esp this and in the Hallelujah video
I love the way Avi's bass line doesn't go where expected to make a slight but significant change in the overall sound without losing the melody. When he takes over in his, sweet, mellow upper range it just kills...thanks, Tara, and Merry Christmas!
Since you really seem to love Avis voice, please react to „light in the hallway“ by pentatonix. It’s a lullaby that Scott wrote for his little nephew and Avi is in the lead. I think you will love it
That voice of Avis is stunning for sure and I find myself having the same stunned response to his songwriting skills now. It's a very different kind of music. It takes me by surprise and then draws me in to examine why he writes the way he does. Gosh, its fascinating.
you should react to ‘You’re A Mean One Mr Grinch’ AND ‘Do You Hear What I Hear’ they are the newest and so good! WAIT also “Bad Guy” by Citizen Queen, they really snapped on that one
Everyone remember this we Tara Bites will patiently wait for the one reaction we are requesting and enjoy all the others. Besides it’s time for Christmas
Morgan Jacobs I love their video for the song but here is also a link for them on Rachel Ray and Jimmy Kimmel since she prefers live performances. Both shows got the sound mixed very well. They were even nominated for an Emmy for their Rachel Ray performance. ua-cam.com/video/VLoQ54DLzjQ/v-deo.html
This version of Silent Night evolves from a traditional carol to a straight-up lullaby. They have another version, done after Matt joined the group, that they perform with The King's Singers,that you've got to hear to believe; that version evolves from a carol to what the shepards heard when the Star appeared over the manger.
Came here for Avi Appreciatiation™ ...was NOT disappointed. 2:01-25... She is literally me. Avi's voice is overwhelmingly beautiful and warm... it just melts me. And these harmonies are absolutely gorgeous too.
Thank you so much for reacting to this one. This is my Absolute favorite Live Official Christmas video of Pentatonix because of the dissonant tones and the gorgeous arrangement...ahhhh!!! 🥰
Yes. They r genius. Who even thought of and wrote that last half- it is just incredible!!!! So moving, so gorgeous, so beautiful, so many moving parts- but it’s not too much, it’s just perfect. I could listen for hours!
I'm so glad to see this reaction! In all honesty, this is a hard Christmas for me and moments like this are helping propel me through it. Thank you, Tara. 🙏🎄
I just binge watched all of your Pentatonix vids, and wow. I’ve seen a lot (like a *lot*) of Pentatonix reactions, and yours are by FAR the best. You’re so intelligent and you notice all the little details that really make Pentatonix work, which so many listeners take for granted. I wish I could just talk to you about Pentatonix for hours lmao
Their ability to emphasize such crunchy harmonies while making them so incredibly pleasing to the ear is such a talent. The dissonance helps make the "proper" harmonies sound even clearer because they act as a launch pad into more tonal harmonics which most people are used to; therefore, they give their own arrangement an interesting ebb and flow between typical tonality and more atypical tonality while avoiding sounding stagnant. They're brilliant as always. You absolutely need to listen to the "Disney Princess Medley" done with Laura Osnes and Bonnie Milligan. It's insanely fantastic.
So, I don't know a thing about singing and while I'm confident (hopeful) I'm like Nat King Cole when in the shower, I really can't sing. At all. Watching you do these reaction videos is great fun. And your voice, when you share it during your analysis, is amazing!
So my show choir (all women’s group) did this for this year holiday spectacular. When you stop at 0:52, and talked about it’s important not to take a breath there and sustain through the whole phrase. It is important, my choir director kept telling us to get a good support breath before the phrase. So when you said something about this, I just kept nodding my head, agreeing with you.
You should react to Acapop Kid's rendition of "Into the Unknown". It is incredible! They are a group of children started by, among others, Pentatonix's Scott Hoying.
What a great version of this song. Thanks for your comments. Now, please react to Peter Holins and Avi Kaplan singing Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair. Consider it a Christmas present.
I love how you 'feel' the song while listening. And it's not easy to put a twist on a classic and make it better but they did! Yes. The angels were singing...all 5 of them! Thank you for the reaction and Merry Christmas!
Hi Tara..YOU, darling, are simply an AMERICAN TREASURE!! Not only have I learned sooo immensely from your teachings but also from your demonstrations in your videos. Your Godlike talent for singing and enunciation floor me. To be that stunningly GORGEOUS as you are naturally...I HONOR YOU dearest FOREVER!! THANK YOU for all you do...and Merry Christmas and Happiest Holidays to you and your family and special loved ones darling!!
Love their version. Always click when I see a new PTX video pops up. You need to react to Jennifer Hudson singing Memory on The Voice. Extremely well done.

This cover is the prettiest thing they’ve ever done honestly, just so raw and very calming
I would argue their Mary did you know? to be Very close by.
Yes.
Not ashamed to say... This performance never fails to make me cry
Me too my friend, me too.
Me also
🎄Happy Bless Holidays ⛄
You should listen to the original one in German it's even more beautiful 😍
me too :')
2:05 I know she explains it but...I like to think that Avi’s voice is just so amazing that it forcibly causes leg hair to grow
Avi's voice can do alot of things to people lol
*I FOUND AN AVI FANGIRL EVERYONE*
They're not hard to find xD
@@RosheenQuynh thats actually true
@@eyan7808 But to be fair, how could you NOT be one?! 😍
@@RosheenQuynh ikr
@@eyan7808 Everything about him is so gorgeous 😭
Thank you for sharing your reaction to Avi...I don't feel so awkward now that I have basically the same reaction every time he sings. Ha. Ha.

Not enough people know/react to that song and this needs to change. Lol
That song is amazing!!!
Yes please react to this one!
There is an excellent live version of that, though. I think she'd prefer the live one. ua-cam.com/video/gVNamBJUdfU/v-deo.html

"It's like the angels are singing, guys!"
What do you mean, "like"?
i get shivers every time avi comes in
Im with you!
My eyes keep going to Kirsti leaning back on the wall giving the combined impressions of relaxation/peace and total absorbsion in the song.
I tear up almost every time I hear Avi in this song, omg. I can't with him. Every single note of his in this song is the definition of gorgeous. This song is part of my nightly sleep playlist, too. I don't even care if it's a Chrstmas song, it's too perfect not to fall asleep to it.
"Sleep" is in the lyrics very often so I guess thats ok XD
And they all have their eyes closed (except Scott for some reason lol)
@@BlueStar4040 That's exactly why I sleep to it. Well, that and it's pretty-sounding lol
And now that I said THAT, what IS Kirstin doing???
@@BlueStar4040 😆
@@RosheenQuynh I don't need sleep, I NEED ANSWERS (sry had to)
Can you please react to Pentatonix White Winter Hymnal? I love this song so much it is my favorite Pentatonix Christmas song.
who else lost their ever loving minds at 3:10 when they hit that crunchy chord oh my god I’m in TEARS
When Tara reacts to Pentatonix I click immediately. Tara's looking great tonight👋
This always comes across to me as a lullaby. The soft ebb & flow, as you said, with the crooning “sleep” section.
_Precisely_ why this song is in my nightly sleep playlist.
Aside from the fact that I agree let me just thank you for pointing out the "ebb & flow" comment because English isn't my first language and I couldn't understand those words even though I'm at my 10th replay 😄 Thank you again!
2:02 The Avi-gasm begins...
That's been happening to me for a little over a year now LOL
It’s the “let’s listen to that again” followed by the eye rolling into the back of the head that really gives it away. He is amazing though, esp this and in the Hallelujah video
“Now I need to shave my legs” almost took me out 😂💀
And I totally, utterly, absolutely understand!!
I love the way Avi's bass line doesn't go where expected to make a slight but significant change in the overall sound without losing the melody. When he takes over in his, sweet, mellow upper range it just kills...thanks, Tara, and Merry Christmas!
You're reaction to when Avi first comes in is AWESOME!!!
Since you really seem to love Avis voice, please react to „light in the hallway“ by pentatonix. It’s a lullaby that Scott wrote for his little nephew and Avi is in the lead. I think you will love it
That voice of Avis is stunning for sure and I find myself having the same stunned response to his songwriting skills now. It's a very different kind of music. It takes me by surprise and then draws me in to examine why he writes the way he does. Gosh, its fascinating.
Her reaction to Avi is the same one I Have when I listen to him, and I’m a grown man
They are a MAGICAL group I could listen to them sing forever....
Their version of little drummer boy is amazing. Gives me chills just like this 🥰
Can you react to Pentatonix's Mr. Grinch please? It's so good!!!!
It's fantastic!!!
yes, please. not only does Matt get to sing the lead, but we also get to hear Scott do the bass for the whole song. :)
This song is really an amazing rollercoaster. You will have the best time listening to this. :)
yes pls!
Yaaaasssss!!!!!
I screamed when I saw this in my recommended. Pentatonix version of this song never fails to amaze me. Love your reaction!
react to pentatonix imagine please!!!! it’s so so good
No no no no no
you should react to ‘You’re A Mean One Mr Grinch’ AND ‘Do You Hear What I Hear’ they are the newest and so good!
WAIT also “Bad Guy” by Citizen Queen, they really snapped on that one
Clicked immediately
one of the best performances!!!
Everyone remember this we Tara Bites will patiently wait for the one reaction we are requesting and enjoy all the others. Besides it’s time for Christmas
So I watch a lot of vocal coaches. But I've actually learned so much from you. You're very articulate and explain things really well.
Avi just makes me.... well.... you know!!!! LOVE that bass!!!! As always.... simply stunning!! 💖
Can you react to God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen by Pentatonix? Or Poor Unfortunate Souls/I Put A Spell On You by Voctave? I love your reactions.
Dod rest ye merry gentlemen
Morgan Jacobs I love their video for the song but here is also a link for them on Rachel Ray and Jimmy Kimmel since she prefers live performances. Both shows got the sound mixed very well. They were even nominated for an Emmy for their Rachel Ray performance. ua-cam.com/video/VLoQ54DLzjQ/v-deo.html
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen is good fun
Their arrangements are so point on and work so well with their vocals
Right!!
I just LOVE watching you and enjoy your critique and tips.
This version of Silent Night evolves from a traditional carol to a straight-up lullaby. They have another version, done after Matt joined the group, that they perform with The King's Singers,that you've got to hear to believe; that version evolves from a carol to what the shepards heard when the Star appeared over the manger.
When they trilled there and she predicted it she's like, oooooh! Lol that was sweet
Tears came strolling down. I can never get enough of Harmonizing
Chills over and over...with the ebbing and flowing...thrilling!! Tender and powerful. I fully agree
you’re a mean one, mr grinch is a MUST to react to !!
Wow! This video never ceases to amaze me! The resonance and acoustics that singing in a church brings is FANTASTIC! ❣
Came here for Avi Appreciatiation™ ...was NOT disappointed. 2:01-25... She is literally me. Avi's voice is overwhelmingly beautiful and warm... it just melts me. And these harmonies are absolutely gorgeous too.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE AVI!!!!!!
Oh how much I love Avi. He is for me an angel voice. Love love love silent night.
I love this from PTX. This was Avi's last with the group. Blessings of Peace and Love to you Tara over this Yule/Christmas season.
Mitch is still my favorite. This group is ridiculously talented.
I’ve been listening to this version ever since it came out! I love it so much, even when it’s not Christmas I listen to it! Love your videos Tara 😊
That's how I feel every time I hear Pentatonix- angels are singing.
Omg finally I’ve been waiting for this reaction
*THE INROS BACK*!!!! I would love if you did another Cimorelli reaction!!!
Chris Coyle yes! She should do a reaction to Cimorelli’s cover of
Mary Did You Know or Carol of the Bells!
Thank you so much for reacting to this one. This is my Absolute favorite Live Official Christmas video of Pentatonix because of the dissonant tones and the gorgeous arrangement...ahhhh!!! 🥰
You are so beautiful. I love every pentatonix reaction you make. This one performance was particularly touching. Avi is special. All of them are.
Never be Silent Again Pentatonix especially Avi AVI!!
Yes. They r genius. Who even thought of and wrote that last half- it is just incredible!!!! So moving, so gorgeous, so beautiful, so many moving parts- but it’s not too much, it’s just perfect. I could listen for hours!
I'm so glad to see this reaction! In all honesty, this is a hard Christmas for me and moments like this are helping propel me through it. Thank you, Tara. 🙏🎄
I love the arrangement of this. So different, unexpected and beautiful.
I'm glad you finally did this video. Beautiful rendition.
Just perfect. Stunning rendition of a classic song. ♥Avi! OMG, ♥that's when my tears started. sheesh!

Yes they do sound like an angel's choir!! So talented!!
React to pentatonix’s mr. grinch

I am convinced this is what heaven sounds like once I die
PLEASE react to The First Noel. Avi’s lead, his part, his voice omgosh❤️😭it makes me smile an cry.
So, I don't know a thing about singing and while I'm confident (hopeful) I'm like Nat King Cole when in the shower, I really can't sing. At all. Watching you do these reaction videos is great fun. And your voice, when you share it during your analysis, is amazing!
Kirstin's part in the middle part is my favorite part!
The Christmas songs I listen to from PTX are Silent Night, Noel and Drummer Boy
So my show choir (all women’s group) did this for this year holiday spectacular. When you stop at 0:52, and talked about it’s important not to take a breath there and sustain through the whole phrase. It is important, my choir director kept telling us to get a good support breath before the phrase. So when you said something about this, I just kept nodding my head, agreeing with you.
oh i love this by pantatonix. please react to the little drummer boy it's so good
Your reactions are priceless! I love the choices PTX makes.
You should react to Acapop Kid's rendition of "Into the Unknown". It is incredible! They are a group of children started by, among others, Pentatonix's Scott Hoying.
Agreed!
Yes! She needs to see these kids
Yesss I hope she sees this! They are so talented!
I have the same reaction to Avi every time ❤️
The Christmas nails, lipstick & rosey cheeks!............Gorgeous 🎄❤✨🤗
Do you ever not look amazing? AND I LOVE PENTATONIX.
This song always puts me at least, no matter how old it is.
It’s September 2 and I’m listening to Christmas music.. NOT ASHAMED
The arrangement of this is so beautiful 😍😍😍
I just love how you do reactions!!! ❤❤
React to Pentatonix, You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch!
It's so beautiful. They really do sound like angels
What a great version of this song. Thanks for your comments.
Now, please react to Peter Holins and Avi Kaplan singing Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair. Consider it a Christmas present.
They're underrated, no joke. They deserve more views.
Something you may enjoy (if you haven’t seen it) Phantom of the Opera medley by Voice Play featuring Rachel! I’d love to see your reaction to that!
Finally! I’ve been asking for this for a good year, I’m so glad you finally decided to react to it
No one;
Tara; YES! YESI LOVE THAT!
Saw them live and they did this song with NO MICS!! it was amazing
I love how you 'feel' the song while listening. And it's not easy to put a twist on a classic and make it better but they did! Yes. The angels were singing...all 5 of them! Thank you for the reaction and Merry Christmas!
Always gives me goosebumps! stunning!
Mitch with the angelic voice❤

Gotta give a listen to Do You Hear What I Hear sung by Home Free. One of my favorites to listen to.
That dissonance really gets me every time. Their voices are like candy to my ears 🍬👂
Love their version. Always click when I see a new PTX video pops up. You need to react to Jennifer Hudson singing Memory on The Voice. Extremely well done.
I'm amazed at the amount of sound they get out of 5 ppl
Please react mary did you know
I've been waiting for you to react to this one! Beautiful!
