They dont have a bad one. Three Grammy wins this is number 1. It's incredible. They are incredible!!! Keep in mind Hallelujah may not be your cup of tea, and its not Christmas or religious based, but it is spiritual and has over 629 million views. Its beautiful. Thanks for this reaction. It was great fun.
Everyone who watches this video has the exact same reaction. Mind Blown. Now, go back and find the video of them singing it live, off mic, in the green room before a show. Then you realize that they can reproduce a VERY accurate representation of what you are watching - Live, without the technology.
You may like their original EDM song "Love Again". Run To You with no percussion, so 5 part singing. Over The Rainbow also 5 part, but no video. Excellent rapid chord progressions. Bohemian Rhapsody. Generally proclaimed to be the best cover. Papaoutai and Radioactive include Lindsey Stirling's violin and Kevin's cello. The first is in French! Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy has no words and won them another grammy. Pretender is in Japanese. Come Along is a lot of fantasy fun.
I love their up-beat songs too. They've got some great ones out there!! And some great originals, like Sing and Love Again. Very happy you didn't give up on them!! Fantastic that you listened twice!!!🌞🌞🌞🌞
That’s funny about Hallelujah. Different strokes and all that. They won their first Grammy for Daft Punk. They also won Grammys for Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy and Jolene (with Dolly Parton).
They do have another EDM type song, an original called Love Again. I like it as well as the Daft Punk video and a lot of fans seem to agree. It was released the year after Daft Punk medley.
Bohemian Rhapsody is a good one. You might also like Evolution of Michael Jackson (the official video for this one is live, and incredible). Love Again is another EDM type song, it’s an original
The thing I appreciate about PTX the most is the diversity of the catalog. Choral: Hallelujah, Imagine, Mad World, Sound of Silence Dance/EDM: Daft Punk (Grammy), 90s Dance Medley, Love Again (Orig), Can't Hold Us Rock: Bohemian Rhapsody (Jaw Dropping), Radioactive (Ft Lindsey Sterling) Pop: Problem, Can't Sleep Love (Orig), Evolution of Michael Jackson, Havana, New Rules x Are You That Somebody, Coffee in Bed (Orig) Show Tunes: You're a Mean One, Mr Grinch, The Wizard of Ahhs (ft Todrick Hall) Instrumental: Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (Grammy) Country: Jolene (Grammy ft Dolly Parton!!!) Pick your style or sample them all. Each one is worthy to be played on loop. And don't forget the side projects. -Kevin "KO" Olusola with Down (jaw dropping) -Superfruit: Scott and Mitch's experimental channel. Guy.exe and Feeling Myself are top notch. -Avi Kaplan's Change of the Rise -KO also recently released and collaboration with Pomplamoose, an Every Breath/500 miles mashup.
I'm so glad you gave them another chance right away... and to have played a part in that 😆 I do love their entire discography, but I understand where you're coming from... sometimes I put off watching the reactions to the more traditional songs like Hallelujah and Amazing Grace. I have to be in the right mood, anymore. Meanwhile, I get downright giddy when I see a reaction pop up to the EDM & R&B songs (Love Again, New Rules x Are You That Somebody), Evolution Of medleys they shoot live in one-take (Rihanna, Ariana Grande, Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Music) and especially some of the less reacted stuff (Where Are U Now, La La Latch, Blinding Lights, Gold, No). Obviously, I have other favorites that do get reactions... and love some of the REALLY old stuff that might not be quite as up your alley, too, but there's a start. I'm sure someone has warned you already, but there has been a single member change you'll run into. Avi with the beard was the bass from 2011-2017 and from 2017+ you'll find Matt is the bass. Everyone else changes looks over the course of the 10 years they've been singing together, but are the same four people. I hope you find plenty more to love about PTX, whether they happen to coincide with my favorites or not!
Thank you :) - I would never writeoff an artist/group solely on a song that wasn't my cup of tea. But seeing Daft Punk mentioned did bring the revisit forward a few days for sure and I am so glad about that :) Thanks for the info and yeh I caught from the comments that there was a member change. I have a fair few on the list now to choose from so its gonna be great I am sure :)
My list of top ten Pentatonix songs every reactor should do (some you've already done): 1. "Hallelujah" (with Avi as bass) 2. "The Sound of Silence" or "Amazing Grace" (with Matt as bass) Great songs, great arrangements, all four vocalists have solos that showcase them 3. "Daft Punk" 4. "Bohemian Rhapsody" - masterful rendition of a classic song, crazy how this instrument-heavy rock song can be sung by only five voices 5. "Imagine" - beautiful arrangement with a strong visual message for these times 6. "Evolution of Michael Jackson" (or any of their other *Evolution* videos. Pick your favorite artist) - these are medleys on steroid, *recorded live in the studio* in one continuous take, incredible transitions for 20+ songs in 6-7 minutes 7. "Can't Sleep Love" (Popspring concert version) or "A Little Space" (ft. Ateez) - a taste of their *original music* 8. "Aha" (Star Vista Singapore version) - an iconic concert performance. The combination of Mitch's highs and Avi's lows is out of this world. 9. "Say Something" - a powerfully emotional rendition that showcases *Kirstin* as the lead. She usually sings harmonies or shares the lead with Scott and/or Mitch 10. "New Rules x Are You That Somebody" - they are excellent at *mash-ups* and this is their best yet, with great beatboxing and bass line, a good introduction for Matt
Love this reaction! Note that the scratch and skip effects are all them - they have done this one many times live in concert. (And love that Kirstin Maldonado's solo is your favorite song - a lot of people don't seem to recognize it.). Medleys are one of their trademarks. For a really plain but wonderful example (shot as a single take), try Evolution of Michael Jackson (or you can see it as part of their short live set from Popspring 2016). The recent 90s Dance Medley is great too, and will introduce you to Matt Sallee, who replaced Avi Kaplan (the bass in this video) when Avi departed to do his own thing (that is the *only* personnel change in their decade together as a group). Their collabs with violinist/dancer Lindsey Stirling, Papatouai and Radioactive, are pretty great, and you can see Kevin Olusola "cello box" - beatbox while playing cello. Bohemian Rhapsody is stellar, with tenor/countertenor Mitch Grassi as the lead (in more ways than one - he's the one whose voice you admired in Hallelujah - be warned, he changes his look over and over). No need to pick out a song to show off Scott Hoying's powerful baritone voice and amazing range - he plays a big part in virtually every video (with the white hair in this one). I also think you might like La La Latch, Love Again, Can't Sleep Love, New Rules x Are You That Somebody, Shallow, and Happy Now. Final rec: You said it's not your time of year for religious music, but in an interview a couple of years ago, the group said that one of the most challenging arrangements they ever did was God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
Songs which might appeal to you by them: La La Latch, New Rules/Are you that somebody, Sing, Cracked, Somebody that I used to know, Radioactive, Attention, Can't touch this. Everyone has already recommended Bohemian Rhapsody, so I don't need to. There are more, but I can't think of them now.
Every Pentaholic has their favorite! It is for different reasons, I have noticed. I totally get what you are saying, but every song PTX gets their hands on is absolutely astounding! It's so hard to pick a favorite sometimes! Thanks for getting into these guys! Will be here for each reaction to them! Do it again! Do it again! Always!
True, Daft Punk (2013) earned them their first of three Grammy Awards (so far). OTH, Hallelujah (2016) has nearly twice as many views (630M vs 353M). Plenty of great videos.
Granted, this is fabulous. Then again, find a song that's been covered more than Hallelujah. Not many. Their version is simply as beautiful as it gets.
I'm just not a fan of "Every" classic Jeris. I still appreciate them, but I dont get excited about everything I hear. Also I can lose interest in songs if everyone is rinsing them. I like to hear things which are truly unique and not just because they are "great". This is unique compared to another needle in the hallelujah haystack, doesnt mean hallelujah is bad, its just not something I would choose to put on myself
@@DancingCoder ALL the members are EXTREMELY TALENTED! there has only been 1 change in the lineup and that is Avi (ah-vee) the bass. He left on good terms in late 2017 and replaced by Matt. Blonde guy is Scott sings baritone, seamlessly covers bass when the bass has a singing part. Hits AMAZING falsettos king of riffs and runs. Avi (guy with beard) sings bass/basso profundo, baritone, overtone. Kirstie sings mezzo soprano, alto (changes her look a LOT) Kevin is the beatboxer, tenor, cello Mitch sings counter tenor (changes his LOOK A LOT) Matt (not in this video) sings bass, baritone Scott, Kirstie and mitch are childhood friends and are known as The Trio. 3 time Grammy winning ACAPELLA group.
What do you mean by tread kindly?🤣 If I don't like something I cannot ditch the video and not share it - assuming this is what you meant? I also wont pretend I like something but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate or value good musicianship/singing etc - ill just be careful that what i'm thinking wont necessarily be clear unless I voice it properly. Are you worried I wont like Leonard?
Absolutely loved this reaction 😆 now we know your preferences we can recommend more that you’d like, usually Hallelujah is a good intro but not everyone is into songs like that
Do the actual video for Love Again. It's got the same edm vibes of this video. Their theme: Steampunk aliens. Kevin does an epic bass drop, and Mitch is savage with his high notes. It'll blow you away.
Hallelujah was the 1st song of theirs I found and I love it, this song is also amazing, totally different but both are great, I can totally understand if someone would like this song more, the most important thing is to find enjoyment, best of luck 😃 they did a 90s Dance Mix and Bohemian Rhapsody too...
I’ve watched many, many reactions to this vid and yours is at the top of my list of favorites. So many reactors pull faces and over the top gushiness. Not necessary at all. You were really feeling it dude, without a bunch of theatrics. Nice!
So people probably suggested Hallelujah if you don't know PTX because they literally have 285 video's in their catalogue....and Hallelujah has almost 700 million views, it's one of their biggest. This one, Daft Punk they won their first of 3 Grammy's for. But there is just about any kind of music you could want in the PTX library. Their Bohemian Rhapsody upgrade is one of the best ever, The Michael Jackson and Ariana Grande Melodies are insane. LaLa Latch, Problems, Can't Hold Us are all insane. So it depends on what you like to listen to. They don't really have "bad music"..... Have fun going down the Rabbit Hole.... And yes Mitchy has a "once in a generation" voice that shoots straight up to the angels.
Long time since I listened to them , I did not know this one . Before I discovered Hua Hua , Dimash , Zhou Shen , KZ and some others I had a fondness for Accapella groups such as Voiceplay , HomeFree and Pentatonix . Really nice to hear it again 💖
This one won a Grammy how ever so it is legit and amazing, They are a utube artist and the mainstream music industry does not push this group as they do their own. just shows how screwed up the mainstream music industry can be
They should get pushed by their label, they are signed to SME from what I can see from the rights data I have (from posting my video) - surprised by this as they are truly incredible!
They won the Grammy with this one. If you care to see the number of views on this song and Hallelujah, you'll see why both songs were recommended. Also. If you would, check the number of subscribers they have, you'll draw your own conclusions. They are turning 10 years established. They are the cream of the crop in this genre. You are about to trip into a "Rabbit Hole". I am afraid you may kick yourself for not discovering then sooner. Cheers.. ;)
Great to see you enjoying this one after your somewhat lukewarm (my mistaken perception, maybe) to their superb rendition of “Hallelujah”. Please try their “Imagine” and “Bohemian rhapsody”. Subbed in anticipation.
Great reaction! A funny note - in 2017, Pres. Macron invited Pres. Trump to the Bastille Day celebration in Paris. One of the performances was a marching band that played the Pentatonix Daft Punk medley, note for note. Macron was smiling through the whole thing while Trump looked bored. I thought it was rather ironic - the title that is. Here's a link of the performance: ua-cam.com/video/vhQkku7jLfo/v-deo.html It's pretty funny. Looking forward to more.
Haha yeah, this one definitely has more energy. I enjoyed this reaction :) If you like the electronic sound, I'd definitely suggest their original Love Again
I actually listened to you rewind it that many times! First time hearing this is awesome but after your 3rd rewind I can move on now. But I like this song in the first place. I see you will be up all night? 🤣🤣🤣 (laughing at your hallelujah comment btw....).
Dont get me wrong here Hua has been played thousands of times in the last week. He fills in the video rendering time, car journeys, office time, all the time 🤣
We tried to keep all this a secret, but then some a-hole goes off with "Hallelujah" and you have to go listen to it. Next you will be listening to Love Again, Can't Hold Us, Bohemian Rhapsody, 90 Dance Music, Radioactive, and Come Along. Hope you Pentaholic enjoy this! ( I know I will) 😂😁🤣😎
I had never heard of Daft Punk before this Pentatonix (PTX) video (because I'm old! ). I was a fan of anything PTX. I've listened to "Daft Punk Medley" maybe 100 times, and am still not bored with it and have learned to appreciate the group, Daft Punk. Glad you appreciated it so much you had to listen to parts and the whole again. The transitions between songs was seamless. Try out one of their other "medleys" or "evolutions of....". There are quite a few. Put "Pentatonix medley" or "Pentatonix evolution" in your search bar and enjoy!
Well if Hallelujah isn't your cup of tea ( your loss ) check out their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody, and their original Love Again, they may be more in your wheel house. Enjoy
If you listen to their acceptance speech for this Grammy, you'll hear Scott, the baritone, say that this video was shot in a closet! I've watched and followed them since the first episode of the Sing Off back in 2011. 10 years, so far, of amazing music. 2 outdoor and 2 indoor concerts. The first outdoor had a crowd, estimated and announced on stage, of 12,000!! And you can't beat their Christmas music.
Why did they recommend Hallelujah? Along with ALL of their other works, it is the pinnacle of all a capella music ever made. Watch it all and fall in love like we have.
Havana, Coffee in bed, A little Space, *not the ad" 90s Dance Medley, Love me when I dont, are just a small selection i listen to a lot, along with many already mentioned... This was fun, thank you
Everyone has their own opinion about songs, how boring if we all though the same! Most people recommend Hallelujah because fans have loved it 600 million views worth - not nearly as many for my own favorite, their Popspring live concert, but that just means I get extra happy when someone shares that one with me :-) Glad you enjoyed this one so much!
Great reaction! If you haven't seen Bohemian Rhapsody you really should check it out. And since you liked this one you should also check out their original Love Again.
Well, we all have personal preferences. I'm suspecting you will be reluctant to watch "Sound of Silence" too, as that's another that's done by many, and Disturbed kinda owns it now. But you might be surprised. It's on most people's "must watch" list because, like everything they do, it's fantastic. One thing about Pentatonix, they often start a song "soft," and then progressively build and build until you are so overwhelmed you feel the need to step back a bit to catch your breath. Other songs (like "Gold") will blow your mind from the first few notes. I can see the others have already got you for "Love Again," which, given your reaction to "Daft Punk" is a guaranteed win. If you want originals instead of covers, I can recommend very nearly everything on their most recent album, "The Lucky Ones," though only a few have videos as yet. But "Happy Now" or "Coffee in Bed" are both pretty high-energy songs you'll probably like. Each of them also does their own thing independently, and Mitch and Scott used to have a weekly vlog called "Superfruit" that was mostly hilarious, but ended up with them doing their own music album "Future Friends" which contains some extraordinary music. Not a capella, and not as squeaky clean as PTX, either. It's about an even split between hilarious (Guy.EXE, Future Friends, Hurry Up) and deeply moving (Deny U, Goodbye to Lonely) and weird (Vacation, Worth It).
You should react to original song “sing” imagine, any evolution series and bohemian rhapsody. Love your reaction and you can go back as much as you like. Pentaholic sense 2011
Welcome to the PENTATONIX rabbit hole! Up next: AMAZING GRACE MAD WORLD SOUNDS OF SILENCE GOLD SING LOVE AGAIN SAY SOMETHING SHALLOW BOHEMIAN RAPSODY HAVANA RADIOACTIVE RUN TO YOU 90's DANCE MEDLEY BLINDING LIGHTS AHAHA and all the Christmas music that you could possibly imagine! Enjoy q🙂
Ooooh, I am sorry for have recommended Hallelujah now. 🤪🥺😳 I listened to this Daft Punk cover maybe twice (liked it and forgot about it 🤦♀️). .. I like their Bohemian Rhapsody cover a lot but you have mentioned under one other video that you don't like that song that much or have heard it too often.... can't remember exactly... the next song that came to my mind was Hallelujah because a lot of people like it a lot. 🙃 🙄 But I am happy you like this one so much. 😄 I just feel a little bit bad now for have recommended Hallelujah 😅
Ah Vijandra it was you! Haha 🤣🤣 No honestly it is ok, I was joking around :) - but yes like Queen, Hallelujah is just not up there on my list of songs I would choose to play. I still put it on though right without bypassing it? 😁 However, to go against my own opinion, these guys doing Bohemian Rhapsody does kind of sound interesting so it has to be heard at some point right? 🤣
If you had my NF Mansion request on your list... I am not so sure about it now. I love that song but it only has a lyric video. It is a rap song with an heavy topic but the lyrics are so great. I can basically see it in my head. And Fleurie sings in the song too. I love Fleurie. But I am not sure if you will like the song 😅
Hola, saludos desde Barcelona 👋 Fantasticos Pentatonix 👏👏👏 Reacciona a: Mary did you know, Little drummer boy, Bohemian rapsody, Imagine, Amazing Grace, (Radioactive, Papaoutai with Lindsey Stirling) Jolene with Dolly Parton
Love Again.... Done @ the same time as Daft Punk but it's an original... Another one you can just hit play at a party and people might think there's a DJ LOL... Enjoy
🤣 - Im only listening to things that have been mentioned - and I have also never experienced any of these artists before which is why I love this crazy journey I have found myself on :) - But yeh, I love Daft Punk (shame they split up after 28 years)
@@DancingCoder Your reactions are great, even when I don't agree with you, and I love the filter. I also love you encouraging people to go to the artists' pages to see the original. I was on a very similar journey and I believe you're in for a treat.
Lol I love all Pentatonix and Daft Punk is absolutely incredible but I personally prefer Hallelujah and I'm an atheist :p Can't wait to see you discover more from them! Don't know what you've learned about them and I know you don't like info dumps but just a couple of information to avoid you being confused : The guy with the beard who sings bass (Avi) is the original member of the group but left in 2017 on good terms and was replaced by Matt. If you see videos without him but another black guy instead that's the reason. All other members are the same even if by changing their looks a lot they sometimes make you wonder. While 99% of the time there are no instruments sometimes they use them but in that case you'll see them playing on camera, if not it's all vocals and beatboxing.
👀 your done with MV official, now check this: PTX Daft punk private mix green room: LIVE NO MICS, PURE RAW VOICE 👀 ua-cam.com/video/tw4YCsHXKgI/v-deo.html
LoL. Everyone thinks Hallelujah is a religious song. Pentatonix even released it on a Xmas album! It was written by Leonard Cohen, and does draw on a lot of Biblical references, but it is far from religious. It is a comparison of a sexual relationship from the beginning to the end. Hallelujah is the cry of delight when climaxing. The line, how to shoot somebody who outdrew you makes little sense in a Xmas song. Clearly it depends what you are shooting. All he's learnt from love is how to let his partner climax first. Doesn't work at the end of a relationship when your partner 'no longer cares for music'. I can understand why most people don't understand 'I've seen your flag on the marble arch'. The fashion these days is for young women to no longer have a flag. Suggest you listen to Hallelujah again, preferably Cohen's original and concentrate on the lyrics.
I am not religious and referring to Christmas also doesn't mean I see this song [hallelujah] as religious either - I have a "time and place" view on songs, and the first time and place I would suspect that this song would hit my ears was at a family gathering around Christmas. It wouldn't get blasted out at a summer party in my garden during a BBQ for instance.
Can't believe you never heard of them either. You must not watch American award shows because besides their three Grammys they are always called on for tributes to other artists.
Understand Hallelujah isn't your favorite song but please quit putting it down. Its got 620 + Million views and Daft Punk has how many views in more or less years out there? We respect your opinion, please stop insulting ours.
Sorry you have misinterpreted that and I am not explaining it again as I could end up doing it hundreds of times lol. I was being playful with the person that suggested Hallelujah across both of the videos. I appreciate what PTX did because its pretty damn good, but yes as you say, the song itself is not my cup of tea and that has nothing to do with them :). Thanks for watching too! More PTX to come as they are amazing and I am looking forward to hearing what they can do with more songs
The fact that your comment section turns into "my song is better than your song" does not bode well for a long lasting success doing reactions. Yes, we all have personal music tastes. But in order to NOT alienate the viewers. Try being a little diplomatic. You basically accused the "fan" who suggested Hallelujah to being stupid. I guess we should just "read" your mind as to what you prefer or not. (A short read in my opinion). But really?
@@DancingCoder Sure...... You are "new" to me also. So........ Maybe there are nuances you are missing. My guess is there is a lot you are missing. So again stop being "all knowing" you are not. As to the "suggester" not taking "offense". Some people do not either perceive or care about being "dissed". That does not excuse it. I also have a great sense of humor. If ever you do, or say something humorous. I will react accordingly.
Ok sure, So what made you write the first comment because Im not entirely sure where I Alienated (or dissed) them - There is an easy way to solve this because me not liking the song Hallelujah has ruffled some PTX fan's feathers.. I just wont share my future enjoyment or appreciation of them publicly and continue to enjoy the journey which the viewers are sending me on (including the person you are talking about)
And I am clearly not "all knowing" because I do not know why you felt so strongly that I was bad mouthing someone, when I wasn't at all! 😋 - Trying to remain playful here too just so you know. Im blunt sometimes, I get that, but I also try not to ignore people, so I had to respond to you otherwise it would go against the rules I set out when I started on this journey. Anyway. I hope we can get off on a better foot going forward - but I am interested what it was that I said that made you say the above, so that I can see it from your point of view 😀
They dont have a bad one. Three Grammy wins this is number 1. It's incredible. They are incredible!!! Keep in mind Hallelujah may not be your cup of tea, and its not Christmas or religious based, but it is spiritual and has over 629 million views. Its beautiful. Thanks for this reaction. It was great fun.
Their cover of, Can't hold us, is a really fun one.
Everyone who watches this video has the exact same reaction. Mind Blown. Now, go back and find the video of them singing it live, off mic, in the green room before a show. Then you realize that they can reproduce a VERY accurate representation of what you are watching - Live, without the technology.
You may like their original EDM song "Love Again".
Run To You with no percussion, so 5 part singing.
Over The Rainbow also 5 part, but no video. Excellent rapid chord progressions.
Bohemian Rhapsody. Generally proclaimed to be the best cover.
Papaoutai and Radioactive include Lindsey Stirling's violin and Kevin's cello. The first is in French!
Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy has no words and won them another grammy.
Pretender is in Japanese.
Come Along is a lot of fantasy fun.
I agree on Love again. If Daft Punk is your type of music, I think you would really enjoy Love again.
I love their up-beat songs too. They've got some great ones out there!! And some great originals, like Sing and Love Again. Very happy you didn't give up on them!! Fantastic that you listened twice!!!🌞🌞🌞🌞
From what I understand is that Daft Punk showed up at one of their world tour concerts and were dancing in the aisle to this.
They have a good original, Love Again, and if you like 90's they do a 90's dance medley that is great. enjoy! Thanks for the reaction.
That’s funny about Hallelujah. Different strokes and all that. They won their first Grammy for Daft Punk. They also won Grammys for Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy and Jolene (with Dolly Parton).
😋 Added to list thanks :)
I think you'll really like their cover of "Bohemian Rhapsody". It's just amazing.
this earned them their first Grammy
They do have another EDM type song, an original called Love Again. I like it as well as the Daft Punk video and a lot of fans seem to agree. It was released the year after Daft Punk medley.
Next one on my list actually :)
A Grammy, filmed in the closet and kitchen of one of their apartments for $400. Talent +++!!
Yeh, I heard that! How awesome!
Bohemian Rhapsody is a good one. You might also like Evolution of Michael Jackson (the official video for this one is live, and incredible). Love Again is another EDM type song, it’s an original
The thing I appreciate about PTX the most is the diversity of the catalog.
Choral: Hallelujah, Imagine, Mad World, Sound of Silence
Dance/EDM: Daft Punk (Grammy), 90s Dance Medley, Love Again (Orig), Can't Hold Us
Rock: Bohemian Rhapsody (Jaw Dropping), Radioactive (Ft Lindsey Sterling)

Show Tunes: You're a Mean One, Mr Grinch, The Wizard of Ahhs (ft Todrick Hall)
Instrumental: Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (Grammy)
Country: Jolene (Grammy ft Dolly Parton!!!)
Pick your style or sample them all. Each one is worthy to be played on loop.
And don't forget the side projects.
-Kevin "KO" Olusola with Down (jaw dropping)
-Superfruit: Scott and Mitch's experimental channel. Guy.exe and Feeling Myself are top notch.

My list of top ten Pentatonix songs every reactor should do (some you've already done):
1. "Hallelujah" (with Avi as bass)
2. "The Sound of Silence" or "Amazing Grace" (with Matt as bass)
Great songs, great arrangements, all four vocalists have solos that showcase them

5. "Imagine" - beautiful arrangement with a strong visual message for these times
6. "Evolution of Michael Jackson" (or any of their other *Evolution* videos. Pick your favorite artist) - these are medleys on steroid, *recorded live in the studio* in one continuous take, incredible transitions for 20+ songs in 6-7 minutes
7. "Can't Sleep Love" (Popspring concert version) or "A Little Space" (ft. Ateez) - a taste of their *original music*
8. "Aha" (Star Vista Singapore version) - an iconic concert performance. The combination of Mitch's highs and Avi's lows is out of this world.
9. "Say Something" - a powerfully emotional rendition that showcases *Kirstin* as the lead. She usually sings harmonies or shares the lead with Scott and/or Mitch
10. "New Rules x Are You That Somebody" - they are excellent at *mash-ups* and this is their best yet, with great beatboxing and bass line, a good introduction for Matt
Amazing thanks for this :)
Thank you for your reaction
PTX is the best. So many of us love them so
Thank you :)
This is just as impressive when they do it live.
Love this reaction! Note that the scratch and skip effects are all them - they have done this one many times live in concert. (And love that Kirstin Maldonado's solo is your favorite song - a lot of people don't seem to recognize it.). Medleys are one of their trademarks. For a really plain but wonderful example (shot as a single take), try Evolution of Michael Jackson (or you can see it as part of their short live set from Popspring 2016). The recent 90s Dance Medley is great too, and will introduce you to Matt Sallee, who replaced Avi Kaplan (the bass in this video) when Avi departed to do his own thing (that is the *only* personnel change in their decade together as a group). Their collabs with violinist/dancer Lindsey Stirling, Papatouai and Radioactive, are pretty great, and you can see Kevin Olusola "cello box" - beatbox while playing cello. Bohemian Rhapsody is stellar, with tenor/countertenor Mitch Grassi as the lead (in more ways than one - he's the one whose voice you admired in Hallelujah - be warned, he changes his look over and over). No need to pick out a song to show off Scott Hoying's powerful baritone voice and amazing range - he plays a big part in virtually every video (with the white hair in this one). I also think you might like La La Latch, Love Again, Can't Sleep Love, New Rules x Are You That Somebody, Shallow, and Happy Now. Final rec: You said it's not your time of year for religious music, but in an interview a couple of years ago, the group said that one of the most challenging arrangements they ever did was God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
Thanks for all the info :)
Songs which might appeal to you by them: La La Latch, New Rules/Are you that somebody, Sing, Cracked, Somebody that I used to know, Radioactive, Attention, Can't touch this. Everyone has already recommended Bohemian Rhapsody, so I don't need to. There are more, but I can't think of them now.
Every Pentaholic has their favorite! It is for different reasons, I have noticed. I totally get what you are saying, but every song PTX gets their hands on is absolutely astounding! It's so hard to pick a favorite sometimes! Thanks for getting into these guys! Will be here for each reaction to them! Do it again! Do it again! Always!
Haha :) Just gotta decide where to go next
True, Daft Punk (2013) earned them their first of three Grammy Awards (so far). OTH, Hallelujah (2016) has nearly twice as many views (630M vs 353M). Plenty of great videos.
Daft Punk doesn't appeal to as wide an audience as a classic such as Hallelujah but it does to me a lot! Looking forward to hearing more from them :)
Granted, this is fabulous. Then again, find a song that's been covered more than Hallelujah. Not many. Their version is simply as beautiful as it gets.
I'm just not a fan of "Every" classic Jeris. I still appreciate them, but I dont get excited about everything I hear. Also I can lose interest in songs if everyone is rinsing them. I like to hear things which are truly unique and not just because they are "great". This is unique compared to another needle in the hallelujah haystack, doesnt mean hallelujah is bad, its just not something I would choose to put on myself
@@DancingCoder Understood.
@@DancingCoder ALL the members are EXTREMELY TALENTED! there has only been 1 change in the lineup and that is Avi (ah-vee) the bass. He left on good terms in late 2017 and replaced by Matt.
Blonde guy is Scott sings baritone, seamlessly covers bass when the bass has a singing part. Hits AMAZING falsettos king of riffs and runs.
Avi (guy with beard) sings bass/basso profundo, baritone, overtone.
Kirstie sings mezzo soprano, alto (changes her look a LOT)
Kevin is the beatboxer, tenor, cello
Mitch sings counter tenor (changes his LOOK A LOT)
Matt (not in this video) sings bass, baritone
Scott, Kirstie and mitch are childhood friends and are known as The Trio.
3 time Grammy winning ACAPELLA group.
Gotcha. I'm not a fan of everything that's popular either. Just tread kindly around Leonard Cohen songs please.
What do you mean by tread kindly?🤣 If I don't like something I cannot ditch the video and not share it - assuming this is what you meant? I also wont pretend I like something but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate or value good musicianship/singing etc - ill just be careful that what i'm thinking wont necessarily be clear unless I voice it properly. Are you worried I wont like Leonard?
During one of there concerts Daft Punk joined them on stage.
Amazing!
Absolutely loved this reaction 😆 now we know your preferences we can recommend more that you’d like, usually Hallelujah is a good intro but not everyone is into songs like that
Thanks! Just being me 🤣
Do the actual video for Love Again. It's got the same edm vibes of this video. Their theme: Steampunk aliens. Kevin does an epic bass drop, and Mitch is savage with his high notes. It'll blow you away.
Hallelujah was the 1st song of theirs I found and I love it, this song is also amazing, totally different but both are great, I can totally understand if someone would like this song more, the most important thing is to find enjoyment, best of luck 😃 they did a 90s Dance Mix and Bohemian Rhapsody too...
I’m 65 years old and have seen a video or two in my lifetime; this is by far THE best video I’ve ever seen .
Don't forget to add "Amazing Grace" their latest release I think, it's absolutely stunning, my new favorite version on it.
Halleluja is a masterpiece. You will find that Pentatonix can do anything
They are incredible! I have to keep reminding myself that there are no instruments. Congratulations on over 3000 subscribers...amazing!😄
Yeh pretty cool eh? Looking forward to more :) and thank you, what a long, emotional but fun 2 weeks this has been. Here's to the next 2! 😁
@@DancingCoder Yes...Right there with yah! 😄
😁
I’ve watched many, many reactions to this vid and yours is at the top of my list of favorites. So many reactors pull faces and over the top gushiness. Not necessary at all. You were really feeling it dude, without a bunch of theatrics. Nice!
So people probably suggested Hallelujah if you don't know PTX because they literally have 285 video's in their catalogue....and Hallelujah has almost 700 million views, it's one of their biggest. This one, Daft Punk they won their first of 3 Grammy's for. But there is just about any kind of music you could want in the PTX library. Their Bohemian Rhapsody upgrade is one of the best ever, The Michael Jackson and Ariana Grande Melodies are insane. LaLa Latch, Problems, Can't Hold Us are all insane. So it depends on what you like to listen to. They don't really have "bad music"..... Have fun going down the Rabbit Hole.... And yes Mitchy has a "once in a generation" voice that shoots straight up to the angels.
Thanks Kathryn :)
Long time since I listened to them , I did not know this one . Before I discovered Hua Hua , Dimash , Zhou Shen , KZ and some others I had a fondness for Accapella groups such as Voiceplay , HomeFree and Pentatonix . Really nice to hear it again 💖
They can do any type of music that is part of the genius/extraordinary talent they are
This one won a Grammy how ever so it is legit and amazing, They are a utube artist and the mainstream music industry does not push this group as they do their own. just shows how screwed up the mainstream music industry can be
They should get pushed by their label, they are signed to SME from what I can see from the rights data I have (from posting my video) - surprised by this as they are truly incredible!
Dude, Hallelujah is a game changer
They won the Grammy with this one. If you care to see the number of views on this song and Hallelujah, you'll see why both songs were recommended. Also. If you would, check the number of subscribers they have, you'll draw your own conclusions. They are turning 10 years established. They are the cream of the crop in this genre. You are about to trip into a "Rabbit Hole". I am afraid you may kick yourself for not discovering then sooner.
Cheers.. ;)
Great to see you enjoying this one after your somewhat lukewarm (my mistaken perception, maybe) to their superb rendition of “Hallelujah”. Please try their “Imagine” and “Bohemian rhapsody”. Subbed in anticipation.
Just not a fan of the song in general, nothing against them at all :)
@@DancingCoder Fair enough. Thanks.
Others are on my list :) thanks for the sub too!
Great reaction! A funny note - in 2017, Pres. Macron invited Pres. Trump to the Bastille Day celebration in Paris. One of the performances was a marching band that played the Pentatonix Daft Punk medley, note for note. Macron was smiling through the whole thing while Trump looked bored. I thought it was rather ironic - the title that is. Here's a link of the performance: ua-cam.com/video/vhQkku7jLfo/v-deo.html It's pretty funny. Looking forward to more.
That's so funny! Love it!
Haha yeah, this one definitely has more energy. I enjoyed this reaction :)
If you like the electronic sound, I'd definitely suggest their original Love Again
That ones next :) - doesn't have to have loads of energy, I am just a big big Daft Punk fan so It was going to be more exciting
I actually listened to you rewind it that many times! First time hearing this is awesome but after your 3rd rewind I can move on now. But I like this song in the first place. I see you will be up all night? 🤣🤣🤣 (laughing at your hallelujah comment btw....).
I stopped actually :) it was worthy of being played without me interrupting in excitement haha!
@@DancingCoder lol... I think times 10 and that’s how I’m like with someone’s songs.🤪
Dont get me wrong here Hua has been played thousands of times in the last week. He fills in the video rendering time, car journeys, office time, all the time 🤣
@@DancingCoder yeah.... and there’s plenty more you haven’t heard yet 😝.
Good!
The chromatic drop in Attention will slay you
We tried to keep all this a secret, but then some a-hole goes off with "Hallelujah" and you have to go listen to it. Next you will be listening to Love Again, Can't Hold Us, Bohemian Rhapsody, 90 Dance Music, Radioactive, and Come Along. Hope you Pentaholic enjoy this! ( I know I will) 😂😁🤣😎
🤣🤣🤣 Those two are next yeh! hahaha
Just subbed to join you on your journey down the PTX rabbit hole! 💖
Thank you :) Looking forward to the next one which which will be "Love Again"
I had never heard of Daft Punk before this Pentatonix (PTX) video (because I'm old! ). I was a fan of anything PTX. I've listened to "Daft Punk Medley" maybe 100 times, and am still not bored with it and have learned to appreciate the group, Daft Punk. Glad you appreciated it so much you had to listen to parts and the whole again. The transitions between songs was seamless. Try out one of their other "medleys" or "evolutions of....". There are quite a few. Put "Pentatonix medley" or "Pentatonix evolution" in your search bar and enjoy!
Thanks - more PTX coming soon :)
If you love this, you will also like their original song "Love Again". Highly recommend you react to it!
Is my next one to do :)
Well if Hallelujah isn't your cup of tea ( your loss ) check out their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody, and their original Love Again, they may be more in your wheel house. Enjoy
New Rules are you that somebody and Shallow
If you listen to their acceptance speech for this Grammy, you'll hear Scott, the baritone, say that this video was shot in a closet! I've watched and followed them since the first episode of the Sing Off back in 2011. 10 years, so far, of amazing music. 2 outdoor and 2 indoor concerts. The first outdoor had a crowd, estimated and announced on stage, of 12,000!! And you can't beat their Christmas music.
Yeh I heard about the 400 bucks budget and a closet.. so damn cool!
Why did they recommend Hallelujah? Along with ALL of their other works, it is the pinnacle of all a capella music ever made. Watch it all and fall in love like we have.
Im never gonna get over this Hallulejah thing am I 🤣 - I am looking forward very much to hearing more PTX
Havana, Coffee in bed, A little Space, *not the ad" 90s Dance Medley, Love me when I dont, are just a small selection i listen to a lot, along with many already mentioned... This was fun, thank you
Thank you :)
Let’s be clear……Hallelujah is one of if not THE most beautiful songs EVER! 629 MILLION VIEWS?!?! YOU come on!
Lol my remarks where in jest so all good! I love what PTX did with it :)
Wow, I just noticed you're over three thousand subscribers now. Congrats. How long have you been doing this, for like 3 weeks?
17 days - it's crazy right? Thank you tho!
do Bohemian Rhapsody
If you liked this, try 90's dance medley.
Thanks - it is 4th on my [PTX] list to visit
Everyone has their own opinion about songs, how boring if we all though the same! Most people recommend Hallelujah because fans have loved it 600 million views worth - not nearly as many for my own favorite, their Popspring live concert, but that just means I get extra happy when someone shares that one with me :-)
Glad you enjoyed this one so much!
Well I think the next logical step for your music taste would be Pentatonix - 90’s dance medley 🔥
Check out their original Love Again. It’s similar style. Great reaction! Thanks
Thanks - it is the next one I am visiting :)
Great reaction! If you haven't seen Bohemian Rhapsody you really should check it out. And since you liked this one you should also check out their original Love Again.
Thanks - 'Love again' will be my next visit :)
Bohemian Rhapsody and Can't Hold Us next please... New subscriber here
Thanks for the sub :)
Love Again and Can't Hold Us are next up on the [PTX] list
Well, we all have personal preferences. I'm suspecting you will be reluctant to watch "Sound of Silence" too, as that's another that's done by many, and Disturbed kinda owns it now. But you might be surprised. It's on most people's "must watch" list because, like everything they do, it's fantastic.
One thing about Pentatonix, they often start a song "soft," and then progressively build and build until you are so overwhelmed you feel the need to step back a bit to catch your breath. Other songs (like "Gold") will blow your mind from the first few notes. I can see the others have already got you for "Love Again," which, given your reaction to "Daft Punk" is a guaranteed win. If you want originals instead of covers, I can recommend very nearly everything on their most recent album, "The Lucky Ones," though only a few have videos as yet. But "Happy Now" or "Coffee in Bed" are both pretty high-energy songs you'll probably like.
Each of them also does their own thing independently, and Mitch and Scott used to have a weekly vlog called "Superfruit" that was mostly hilarious, but ended up with them doing their own music album "Future Friends" which contains some extraordinary music. Not a capella, and not as squeaky clean as PTX, either. It's about an even split between hilarious (Guy.EXE, Future Friends, Hurry Up) and deeply moving (Deny U, Goodbye to Lonely) and weird (Vacation, Worth It).
You should react to original song “sing” imagine, any evolution series and bohemian rhapsody. Love your reaction and you can go back as much as you like. Pentaholic sense 2011
I believe Hallelujah was to ease you into things.
Welcome to the PENTATONIX rabbit hole!
Up next:
AMAZING GRACE
MAD WORLD
SOUNDS OF SILENCE
GOLD
SING
LOVE AGAIN
SAY SOMETHING
SHALLOW
BOHEMIAN RAPSODY
HAVANA
RADIOACTIVE
RUN TO YOU
90's DANCE MEDLEY
BLINDING LIGHTS
AHAHA
and all the Christmas music that you could possibly imagine! Enjoy q🙂
Thanks for these. Incorporating them into my list
Ooooh, I am sorry for have recommended Hallelujah now. 🤪🥺😳 I listened to this Daft Punk cover maybe twice (liked it and forgot about it 🤦♀️). .. I like their Bohemian Rhapsody cover a lot but you have mentioned under one other video that you don't like that song that much or have heard it too often.... can't remember exactly... the next song that came to my mind was Hallelujah because a lot of people like it a lot. 🙃 🙄 But I am happy you like this one so much. 😄 I just feel a little bit bad now for have recommended Hallelujah 😅
Ah Vijandra it was you! Haha 🤣🤣 No honestly it is ok, I was joking around :) - but yes like Queen, Hallelujah is just not up there on my list of songs I would choose to play. I still put it on though right without bypassing it? 😁
However, to go against my own opinion, these guys doing Bohemian Rhapsody does kind of sound interesting so it has to be heard at some point right? 🤣
It has to be heard, that is right. It is amaaaazing. 🤯
If you had my NF Mansion request on your list... I am not so sure about it now. I love that song but it only has a lyric video. It is a rap song with an heavy topic but the lyrics are so great. I can basically see it in my head. And Fleurie sings in the song too. I love Fleurie. But I am not sure if you will like the song 😅
Sounds ok to me from that description :)
React to Can't Hold Us, Love Again., Can't Sleep Love, Rather Be, Sing
An original of theirs, in the same vain, is Love Again.
And as if by magic, here's me watching it: ua-cam.com/video/L0ioAeaKFuQ/v-deo.html 😋
Subbed for more Pentatonix. Maybe you would like their cover of Can't hold us by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis?
Thank you - This one is second on my list :) - Love again coming up on the next visit :)
Hola, saludos desde Barcelona 👋
Fantasticos Pentatonix 👏👏👏
Reacciona a: Mary did you know, Little drummer boy, Bohemian rapsody, Imagine, Amazing Grace, (Radioactive, Papaoutai with Lindsey Stirling) Jolene with Dolly Parton
You're going down that rabbit hole....
I recommend pentatonix lalalatch, evolution of Michael Jackson and Ariande Grande, and Come Along. Originals cant sleep love and love me when I dont.
Thanks! :)
Love Again.... Done @ the same time as Daft Punk but it's an original... Another one you can just hit play at a party and people might think there's a DJ LOL... Enjoy
That one is next :)
I'm still waiting on you to react to Super Vocal Boys - please!
ok sure :)
You've been a very busy boy, lately. And it does help to know where your preferences lie, even if I don't agree with them, at all. 😎
🤣 - Im only listening to things that have been mentioned - and I have also never experienced any of these artists before which is why I love this crazy journey I have found myself on :) - But yeh, I love Daft Punk (shame they split up after 28 years)
@@DancingCoder Your reactions are great, even when I don't agree with you, and I love the filter. I also love you encouraging people to go to the artists' pages to see the original. I was on a very similar journey and I believe you're in for a treat.
Thanks for your kind words - I'm sure I'm in for many treats as there have been so many magical moments in the last 2 weeks already 😁
Lol I love all Pentatonix and Daft Punk is absolutely incredible but I personally prefer Hallelujah and I'm an atheist :p
Can't wait to see you discover more from them!
Don't know what you've learned about them and I know you don't like info dumps but just a couple of information to avoid you being confused :
The guy with the beard who sings bass (Avi) is the original member of the group but left in 2017 on good terms and was replaced by Matt. If you see videos without him but another black guy instead that's the reason. All other members are the same even if by changing their looks a lot they sometimes make you wonder.
While 99% of the time there are no instruments sometimes they use them but in that case you'll see them playing on camera, if not it's all vocals and beatboxing.
Thankyou Jeza :)
Not heard anything bad from PTX, plenty that's excellent, yes but nothing bad.
Their first Grammy for this,,recorded in a closet
👀 your done with MV official, now check this:

LoL. Everyone thinks Hallelujah is a religious song. Pentatonix even released it on a Xmas album! It was written by Leonard Cohen, and does draw on a lot of Biblical references, but it is far from religious. It is a comparison of a sexual relationship from the beginning to the end. Hallelujah is the cry of delight when climaxing. The line, how to shoot somebody who outdrew you makes little sense in a Xmas song. Clearly it depends what you are shooting. All he's learnt from love is how to let his partner climax first. Doesn't work at the end of a relationship when your partner 'no longer cares for music'. I can understand why most people don't understand 'I've seen your flag on the marble arch'. The fashion these days is for young women to no longer have a flag. Suggest you listen to Hallelujah again, preferably Cohen's original and concentrate on the lyrics.
I am not religious and referring to Christmas also doesn't mean I see this song [hallelujah] as religious either - I have a "time and place" view on songs, and the first time and place I would suspect that this song would hit my ears was at a family gathering around Christmas. It wouldn't get blasted out at a summer party in my garden during a BBQ for instance.
Can't believe you never heard of them either. You must not watch American award shows because besides their three Grammys they are always called on for tributes to other artists.
- and soon you too are a Pentaholic...
:) most likely
Uh ... because Hallelujah is just as well done? Just a different genre.
Never said PTX didnt do a great job.. I just don't like the song. Nothing else, nothing more
DUDE YOU HAVE A SERIOUS PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That I am gonna get hooked on PTX?
Understand Hallelujah isn't your favorite song but please quit putting it down. Its got 620 + Million views and Daft Punk has how many views in more or less years out there? We respect your opinion, please stop insulting ours.
Sorry you have misinterpreted that and I am not explaining it again as I could end up doing it hundreds of times lol. I was being playful with the person that suggested Hallelujah across both of the videos. I appreciate what PTX did because its pretty damn good, but yes as you say, the song itself is not my cup of tea and that has nothing to do with them :). Thanks for watching too! More PTX to come as they are amazing and I am looking forward to hearing what they can do with more songs
Gonna trash Hallelujah how many times? Ten? Twenty? Agenda anybody? Really?
We'll know for sure after Mary, Did You Know?
..
I didnt trash it at all lol
The fact that your comment section turns into "my song is better than your song" does not bode well for a long lasting success doing reactions. Yes, we all have personal music tastes. But in order to NOT alienate the viewers. Try being a little diplomatic. You basically accused the "fan" who suggested Hallelujah to being stupid. I guess we should just "read" your mind as to what you prefer or not. (A short read in my opinion). But really?
Sorry but the suggester did not take offence to my playfulness during my video. You are new to my channel and new to my personality
@Vijandra - Look what we have caused! Please do keep sending me songs that I can have fun with because this dude doesn't have a sense of humour 🤣😋
@@DancingCoder Sure...... You are "new" to me also. So........ Maybe there are nuances you are missing. My guess is there is a lot you are missing. So again stop being "all knowing" you are not. As to the "suggester" not taking "offense". Some people do not either perceive or care about being "dissed". That does not excuse it. I also have a great sense of humor. If ever you do, or say something humorous. I will react accordingly.
Ok sure, So what made you write the first comment because Im not entirely sure where I Alienated (or dissed) them - There is an easy way to solve this because me not liking the song Hallelujah has ruffled some PTX fan's feathers.. I just wont share my future enjoyment or appreciation of them publicly and continue to enjoy the journey which the viewers are sending me on (including the person you are talking about)
And I am clearly not "all knowing" because I do not know why you felt so strongly that I was bad mouthing someone, when I wasn't at all! 😋 - Trying to remain playful here too just so you know. Im blunt sometimes, I get that, but I also try not to ignore people, so I had to respond to you otherwise it would go against the rules I set out when I started on this journey. Anyway. I hope we can get off on a better foot going forward - but I am interested what it was that I said that made you say the above, so that I can see it from your point of view 😀
