Mitch is a vocal anomaly. He paid dearly for his unique voice as a child growing up in Texas. Kids can be cruel, as we know. But Scott and Kirstie have always had his back, and there's a kind of divine justice watching him become so successful on the wings of that stellar voice. Kudos to him for not rejecting the thing that caused him so much pain and rejection, but for walking directly into it and making it his source of power. Real life lessons there...💖💖💖
Probably would (could) have happened anywhere. Should be more a reflection of the date instead of the state. :)
It was in high school that he was bullied for his voice, after all the other boy's voices had changed. And I've always suspected that his voice was just an excuse. He came out of the closet in high school, so I think they were bullying him for being gay and making the same mistake about vocal range being associated with sexual orientation that the producers did on _The Sing-Off._
I *don't* think it had anything to do with Texas. As for whether it would happen today, well, kids (including teenagers) do have a tendency to look for an underdog they can bully. I suspect that this will never change. What *may* have changed are perceptions about gay people, and perceptions about counter tenors (and if that one has changed we have Mitch Grassi to thank for it). But there's still a heck of a lot of homophobia in the world, and specifically in the U.S..
And the thing that most impresses me about Mitch isn't his voice (impressive though it is); it's the fact that I've never once heard him gloat. If it were me I'd probably have had replicas made of my Grammys to send to all the people who'd bullied me.
Kids can be cruel, and kids in Texas when hearing a guy who they think "sounds like a girl" are even crueler, due to what they hear from their parents' mouths.
@@margretrosenberg420 He just seems so genuinely humble about his talent, and as if it doesn't even register with him why people are so awed by his talent.
@@kristinewalberg2938 I wouldn't go *quite* that far. Have you seen their 12th performance on _The Sing-Off?_ Either way you answer that, watch it again, with the following pieces of information:
Scott had a cold and his voice was going.
They'd had a disastrous, off-tune dress rehearsal.
All of them were convinced that this performance was going to be so bad that they'd lose that day; there was only one thing they could pull out of it, and that was Mitch's long-delayed solo.
So watch that video, and look at Mitch's face at the beginning of the performance. *Mitch* wasn't worried about losing _The Sing-Off,_ or at least that wasn't his primary emotion. Mitch was wearing this secretive grin that said "I know something you don't, and boy is it a doozy!" and he kept that grin throughout (though it obviously grew less secretive). Either Mitch thought they'd somehow pull the whole thing off, horse's hooves, choo-choo trains, surprise solo, and wall of sound at the end, all without a hitch; or Mitch thought his solo on its own would be enough to win; or Mitch was just anticipating the look on the judges' faces when he soloed. Now, it may well be the first; he certainly had cause to trust the entire band to do their best work under pressure, but he was well aware that *he* was the big surprise the band had in store in this performance and he was relishing it. He did start looking kind of shy when Shawn started talking about his performance, but that grin never left his face.
I think Mitch *is* humble, in the sense that he accepts his talent as something he was born with, and not of his own doing. But I don't think he could make proper use of his talent without understanding it in detail. And I think he tries to be kind to people who envy his talent, without thinking of them (us) as somehow lesser people.
There's a saying I ran into several years ago that I really like: Always remember that you are totally unique. Just like everybody else.
Mitch is good at singing. (Understatement, but true.) I'm good at math. (Likewise.) There's something you're good at; you would know what that is better than I. When they say "It takes all kinds to make a world" they aren't just talking about personality types - it takes all of our varied talents - not one of us can go it alone, but also each of us is needed, is *important.* And I think Mitch knows that and gives respect where it is due, and it is due to everyone.
Fun fact: At their concert in Texas last December, Scott asked if anyone knew Italian and when no one did he said, “Good! My pronunciation isn’t perfect…” 😂 Like anyone would actually care…
Now you know why we were thinking and hoping for a 4th Grammy for this outstanding rendition of The Prayer. Funnily enough, they did get a nomination...for the whole album. Fingers crossed they win!!
This arrangement and performance is astounding...there just no other word for what they did. BTW...Scott took Italian lessons in order to do his operatic portion of the song. He and the group have done this with other songs...French lessons for Papaoutai (Stromae cover) and Japanese for Perfume, Korean for Gangnam Style, so it's not unusual for them to excel at singing in another language.
Yes...somehow Mitch manages to make singing look completely effortless, but in reality, it's very carefully thought out use of all the tools at his disposal. They all do that.
Looking forward to the 90's Dance Medley!!
We'll, if not this song in particular, they have now officially been nominated for a Grammy for the entire album! They do deserve it!
I saw that they were nominated, but didn’t realize it was for the entire album. That’s amazing, but I think this song should have been nominated, too.
I just want them to win a Grammy, *any* Grammy since Matt came on board. It can't be easy being a member of a band that's won three Grammys but not one of them is yours.
@@margretrosenberg420 My thoughts/hope exactly!
@@margretrosenberg420, same. I feel for Matt who deserves one for his warm, smooth voice...and his infectiously happy outlook that fits in so well with the rest of them.
I've said before, You will NEVER be prepared for what Mitch can do!!
Or any of them, for that matter. 😉
❤❤❤❤❤
As someone who speaks Italian, I can tell that Scott did a great job, there was a heavy american accent, but that's to be expected, he made sure to roll all the rrrs and I loved it. Mitch is Mitch. That's all there is to it. Every time he opens his mouth it blows me away at how amazingly beautiful it is. Do Gold after the 90's Dance Medley. Mitch is unbelievable on that one. Check out the original first if you don't know it, just to see what they can do with pure vocals
Yes To this
Yea gold is a must but you HAVE to listen to the original only to appreciate what they have done to a sing I hated now I love!
How this is not a Grammy nomination on its own is a travesty! I know it’s part of the Evergreen album, but this song is such a standout!
1000% agree
Mitch's singing is so effortless. Also timeless, and masterful.
They won a Grammy for Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. No words? No problem! 😄
This song is from last year's holiday album, Evergreen. The album has been nominated for a grammy in the traditional pop album category. You should listen to the entire album from start to finish. If/when they win, it will be their fourth grammy. Keeping my fingers crossed so that Matt finally gets a little statue too.
Yes!!! Matt deserves one for sure after 5 years with them!!
I believe that Mitch is a generational voice. He is spectacular.
Beautiful reaction!
I always share this story when reactors watch this video, to express just how powerful it is. I was diagnosed with kidney cancer last year and had surgery October 28, 2021. This video was released to PTX Patrons at midnight, after my surgery and while I was laying in the hospital alone, in severe pain, and unable to sleep. After watching it, my tears of pain and fear turned to tears of joy and hope and I was finally able to relax enough to get some rest. I just hope I get to thank them personally when I meet them at their concert next month!
Thanks for your story. I hope you are doing well. Much fun at the concert.
How is your recovery going? Are there any signs of a return of the cancer? (I know it's too early for it to be diagnosed cured, but gotta ask.)
Thank you for that beautiful testimony.
Ive just been diagnosed with kidney cancer. And the immediate treatment is surgery to remove the kidney I hope to have something like you did to inspire me during my post-surgery and cancer recovery. Thanks for sharing your story with us! If gives me hope for a good outcome.
@@margretrosenberg420 Cancer free!! 🧡
Mitch is "other worldly"..so blessed I am able to enjoy his out of this world talent in my life time..❤️
Please do consider Recording of Evergreen.
Matt has been a member of the band since 2018 so his presence is a rough way of dating. This is a relatively recent recording.
To really hear Kirstie's power, you must react to Amazing Grace.
Yes please.
With Mitch hair/looks, Matt or Avi, Scott beard or no beard and Kirstins hair, if you know enough you can date videos down to a shockingly short span of time, haha.
Scott is the one that everyone says forgets lyrics, so of *course* they gave him the part that's in Italian 😅.
You are not alone in loving Mitch's voice. There is an entire video on the rest of PTX talking about how talented he is.
I'm so with you on Mitch having the best voice in the world! You won't get any argument from Pentaholics on that. A lot of people think that Dimash has the best voice in the world and, technically he is phenomenal but his voice doesn't touch me the way Mitch's does. I love the back and forth between Mitch and Scott on this one. We all said they deserved their 4th Grammy for this one and now the whole Evergreen album, including this one, has been nominated for a Grammy!
Nothing against Dimash--I admire his talent and vocal range--but I feel the same way about Mitch's voice. It just touches my heart in a way that I never experienced before in six decades of life and thousands of hours spent listening to all kinds of music.
Agree, Dimash is an amazing singer but Mitch is (the only words that come close to a good description) an earthly angel who's voice reaches into your soul and fills it with the purest of love and happiness (aka my anti-depressant).
@@1978Moonshine - that's such a lovely way to put it and so true! He has a once in a generation voice not just because it's so technically incredible but because of the impact angel Mitch has whenever he sings. ❤️
Mitch has the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard, and I’m 62. I LOVE him soooo much. I’m so jealous of anyone who gets to see them live. I live in Southern California and was unable to see them at the HOLLYWOOD BOWL. I can’t be around large crowd without getting sick, long story. Anyway, I actually live vicariously through those who go and take videos. So I’m telling you right now, if, no when you go see them please take some videos and post them. 🙏🏼 I really enjoy how you react. I love how you break it down. I also love seeing the joy on your face as you watch them.
I often wonder what the odds are (were) that three vocalists of such astonishing talent ended up in the same school at the same time. It's rather mind-blowing!
Loved this!
I heard one reactor describe Mitch as a warm hug that gives you chills and I couldn’t describe him any better!
Mitch never ceases to amaze me either-- a gorgeous, unique voice, incredible vocal control, and an excellent ear. Wows me over and over. They all do really but Mitch especially.
i love your reactions to them. i'm excited to see your reaction to their 90's dance medley. i would also love to see your reaction to their cover of Problem by Ariana Grande. Scott really shows his high range, Kevin kills the beatboxing and you get to hear Mitch Rap!
There is a running joke (?) that the best Pentatonix song or video is the one you just saw. I think it also has something to do with every song they do is different. Some groups have their sound and after a while their songs sound the same. With Pentatonix you recognize the sound of their voices but nearly every song is a different vocal style and composition. They are just a box of chocolates.
The album this song came from was just nominated for a Grammy. We were hoping for this song in particular would be nominated but the whole album was.
At about the three minute mark when the sun comes out they sound almost like a pipe organ. Just astounding. It is nearly impossible to describe what they do with words in any language.
It's funny how, as a pentaholic, we can be mind blown again and again by this phenomenal group, yet, we are also protective and love to brag on them every chance we get. This is basically parental love at its finest! We love them, we love when new listeners react to them and when the Pentaholics get a new member. We are a family even if we don't know each other. It's an automatic bond which is created by these amazing people. Even when Avi left we didn't dump him, he's still family and he's still part of pentatonix... albeit extended. Matt may have taken his place but Matt is not in anyway diminishing who Avi was in the group, he just started a whole new place in the group and instantly became who Pentatonix is as well. 😁
Honestly I feel the exact same way about Mitch. They are all simply breathtaking. Scott sings in Italian. Song was originally sung by
Celine Dion and Andre Bocelli with a full orchestra
Kevin's slow drum rolls from the middle to the end add so much drama and feeling to this. His drum transition from the group section to the Mitch/Kirstie section still gives me goosebumps and I've watched it over 50x.
They have 3 Grammie's and we're just nominated for a fourth. They also have a star on the walk of Fame in Hollywood. Yep, welcome to the world of us Pentaholic's. We will gladly follow you down the PTX rabbit hole. Happy Thanksgiving
It's not even that Mitch's is so high, it's just so pretty. There's something about it that is just so pleasant to listen to.
Yes, Scott's Italian sounds great, and Kirstie belts like nobody else. I can't even with this arrangement and performance. I was hoping for a Grammy nom fir this song, but the nomination was for the entire album. Very cool! As for Mitch, he heals my heart and rebuilds the cells of my body with his voice.
You have just touched the surface of what this band can do. They do upgrades not covers lol. Some ptx suggestions would be: gold by Kiara (watch the original before to see what ptx has done to it), problem, la la latch, attention, dancing on my own, rather be, and so many others. You can literally go to their Playlist and choose at random and it's awesome. I used to hate Christmas music after listening to many different versions of them but ptx has made me fall back in love with Christmas music again. Even songs I hated the original but ptx's arrangements made me love them.
Welcome to craziness of PTX and the fans!
Oh my! We are going to have soooo much fun watching you react to PTX's Christmas music the next 6 weeks! BTW: You being a Music Producer, you really need to watch Pentatonix - Recording of Evergreen. Maybe do a reaction on this video based on your own experience?
Mitch is and always has been my favorite. They're ALL incredible but as someone once said mitch has a once in a generation type voice. He divine emotion from people. So many even after having heard him many times before does a visible double take when he starts singing. Its because I believe anyway his voice is so different no one has heard anything like it before. Its so pure and just perfect and he has such absolute mastery over it Its almost jarring at first. Then after the initial shock Its like warm fire on a freezing cold day or putting on comfort clothes after a long hard day at work. It's zen.
Amazing Grace is an amazing cover by Pentatonix!
you are such a great reactor man!....I could just listen to you for hours 🙂
If you like Mithc I'd suggest Mitch Grassi "Your Power" and Messer (Mitch Grassi) "Angels Pray" (I think you'd like it since you like electronic music)
Mitch is magical! I can concur that in person it’s even more overwhelming. They were all phenomenal. My husband was blown away. It was a magical night.
I took my husband last night, too, and now I think he “gets” my obsession, I mean love, for them 😁💜. I was waving like a crazy person at Mitch (and each one) hoping someone would see and wave back 😂.
@@kristipierce4735 exactly. My husband said that during the question and answer part of VIP he should’ve thanked them for being my escape from our 4 crazy boys.
Think you would enjoy "The Making of Evergreen"
Mitch's vocal gymnastics are beyond incredible. He's definitely a once in a lifetime vocalist and I love hearing him sing.💖🎶
Your enthusiasm is infectiously contagious! Thank you ❤
Impeccable control and a natural countertenor so it does seem easy for him. He is so soothing and magical. Scott is doing it in Italian.
Mitch's voice is so pure, it makes me feel so joyful. I love him! I love them all!
Great reaction to this beautiful Pentatonix video. They are incredible. Scott was singing in Italian. I love that you appreciated Matt's warm bass and everyone's talent in the band. Please react to Pentatonix "Amazing Grace", "Gold" "Prayers For This World", and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen".
They're just so friggen great...incomparable.
The album this track is on has been nominated for a Grammy. Scott is singing in Italian. So glad you appreciate their talent. Are you going to be able to see them in concert over this and next month?
I love seeing people react to videos where all of the trio sing. The people that channel hop for new PTX-reactors only request songs that heavily feature Mitch and Avi, so it's lovely seeing a video that Matt is in and where Kirstie isn't just singing background parts.
Gold. Gold. Gold! GOld!! GOLd!!! GOLD!!!! But watch Kiiara's original first!
Mitch just makes it look EASY
Did you see that they just got Nominated for a GRAMMY for Evergreen.
CONGRATS PTX.
Just to let you know that Kevin is the 16th best beat boxer in the 🌏.
🎵❤🎶
In my book he is the most talented and is #1, once you look at the fact that he plays the cello & beatboxes at the same time, and his solo music is beautiful - he has an amazing voice!!! He also plays the saxophone & keyboards... He is a beautiful human being on top of all that!!!
@@beverlykrebs4372, yup...I'm with you on this. He's so multi-talented and so creative.
They did a amazing job of this song....there is a video of them doing the album Evergreen. You get to see how well they put together their talents. Love any PTX Christmas songs. God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and Carol of the Bells are 2 of my favorites......new to your channel ❤.....l am a true pentatonic.....hope you keep checking them out!!!
I’m excited for you to do their Christmas songs: “O Come All Ye Faithful” and “Mary Did You Know” are my top two suggestions.
Also Joyful Joyful...so upbeat!
One of my many favorites, I don’t think anyone can describe in words how they feel hearing Mitch sing, I’m very new to PTX
"I can't explain the way he makes me feel" "I just don't get it" - explains exactly why he makes us feel the way we do!, there are so many very talented singers/vocalists out there, past and present, but only a few really stay with us and move us completely. Mitch is one of them. For me Freddie Mercury and Elvis would also be there. I love them as a group and as individuals, but there's just something about Mitch's voice, that to me, hits my heart. A fun cover to react to - Come Along, upbeat, fun and very colourful!
All I can say is, ROFL, ROFL, ROFL - Seriously, the faces you make when you react to Mitch is absolutely the best part of this. I absolutely love seeing people react to Mitch's voice. His range and talent are crazy amazing.
Everytime I listen to this, I find myself holding my breathe for the last 8 bars waiting for that incredible high note from Mitch that resolves at the end! So yummy!! 🥺💞
It's even greater when PTX does it!
Please react to The Wizzard of Ahhhhs. It is by Toddrick Hall and Pentatonix. IT WILL SHOW THEIR VERSATILITY!
You've got to check out Amazing Grace. The vocals in that are just as amazing. Mitch uses a lower register and Kirstie kills it.
That one is definitely in my top 3!
Their cover of Mary Did You Know, Amazing Grace, and Can you feel the love tonight really show Their vocal abilities individually and together....pure CHILLS!!!!
I love that Scott sung some in Italian. He did a fantastic job.
They keep getting better - no matter which order you listen to their songs. My favourite PTX song is the one I have just listened to - every song!!
I really hope you will do their cover of Can you feel the love tonight.... You might be surprised
Oh...yes!! That's a great rendition of an already great song. They did Sir Elton proud!
They all shone like comets across the sky in this one, but yeah, Mitch is something special. If you haven't heard his solo cover of Billie Eilish's 'Your Power,' I can highly recommend it - it's on another level. And it's so great to hear Kirstie out--Celine-ing Celine Dion too! If you want to hear more of Matt, he takes the lead vocals in their cover of 'You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch' - it's the perfect showcase of his charisma and vocal talent.
I love how you love Pentatonix!!! Please do IMAGINE and also AMAZING GRACE. I really love your reactions, by the way. I am a Scottaholic if thats possible :-) Love him!
*******NOTHING STARTS MY DAY OFF BETTER, THAN A MITCH SLAP******** Thanks Tylr 💕
In this song you really get to experience the 'wall of sound' from them singing together lined up. lol
Amazing Grace is a beautiful cover and will make you swell with emotion. And can I just say you make me happy.
Love the "Mitch slap" face right off the bat!!
It will come as no surprise to you that just a few days ago Ptx made an announcement that they have been nominated for a Grammy for this entire album!!!! (Evergreen) I am so thrilled for them!!
Yes, magic is a good explanation for them. Also they are aliens. They are unicorns. Pick one! Haha!
Scott is singing in Italian here.
You should react to their cover of the French song "Papaoutai"... Yep! Scott takes the lead & sings the whole thing in French!! The MV is really creative too!! Also, it is one of their collabs with violin player & dancer Lindsey Stirling, who is a huge star in her own right. (There are 3 collabs with her in total & they are all amazing!!! One of them is in on the aforementioned newly Grammy-nominated Evergreen album!!) Ptx also does a song in Japanese and one partly in Spanish. They will be blowing your mind over & over with what they can do. I am so happy to be on this journey of discovery with you!!! Thank you for reacting to my babies!!! (Yes, I claim them as my children bcoz I love them as if they are mine!! I would adopt every one of them in a heartbeat!!)
Looking forward to seeing 90s Dance Medley just wowing you! Just you wait!! It is epic!!! XO
I love Papaoutai! And it's too underappreciated. If you do that - and I hope you will - make sure you watch the original by Strome (try the one with subtitles so you can get the translation of the French), then watch the way PTX transforms a song that was incredible in the first place.
What does "MV" mean? I've heard it a couple of times but can't figure it out from context.
@@margretrosenberg420 Music Video :)
I love to watch people who are new to a capella music react to it. Their facial expressions are priceless--like yours. The folks in Pentatonix are superbly talented and as someone who can't sing to save her life, I'm amazed at their talent. There are other equally talented (but different) a capella groups around. Once you've reacted to more PTX, maybe move on to them. You'll have a lot of their fans watching your reactions. Home Free (fans known as Home Fries) trend toward country (but sing everything--including opera) and kill everything they do. Voice Play is very theatrical and do a lot of character voices and go all out with costumes, make-up, etc. and that just adds to the superb music. Voctave is totally different--they have 11 members and create chords and harmonies that are truly out of this world (you'll think you're hearing angels sing) and they trend toward Disney stuff (and Disney has created some great music). Peter Hollens is a master of layering and his collaborations with Tim Foust (from Home Free) are truly chill-worthy.
I love Home Free's cover of "Ring of Fire," featuring Avi Kaplan. Sounds just like Johnny Cash.
@@margretrosenberg420 Have you seen Austin and Rob singing Nessun Dorma? It is fabulous. Also, you might want to catch Tim's collaboration with Peter Hollens on Misty Mountains if you haven't seen it already. Tim doesn't disappoint.
@@janhankins911 No, I haven't. Thanks for the recommendation. I'll check them out.
I would def recommend that as a producer you react to the Evergreen documentary from last year that shows us their process in arranging & recording the awesome album that this song is from & is nominated for a Grammy!
I'm so glad you reacted to this one! I must listen it every few days and still get Mitch slapped, lol.
If you want to see Kirsty stealing the show you should watch Say Something. I still believe they should have extended it, or made versions with each as a lead on that one, but she really did steal the show. However… bring an ENTIRE box of tissues. For beauty similar to The Prayer look into Mary Did You Know.
you have only scratched the surface of their catalog...in time, you will be blown away by Scott's incredible range and textures and tones of his powerful voice...the Sing-Off needs to be part of your viewing schedule at some point- their origins story
I feel like this song really lets everyone shine and be at the top of their game. They are all so incredibly talented!
My mom is a very traditional woman and has struggled with accepting her godson and myself for not being strictly hetero (am open to conversation if this phrasing confuses anyone) and i sent her the bocelli/dion video first then the ptx version and she was flabbergasted at mitch in the video keeping up w celine. But her biggest compliment was i really needed that song and the cover was absolutely beautiful. It made me feel like she is really learning to accept non-hetero life views. This is by far one of my favorite songs they cover.
Great reaction . Pentatonix has talent like no other. Truly voices of angels . ❤
It just floors me every time they can make their voices sound like a complete choir. 5 voices making music that sounds like a 120 member choir.
Also, a song that is just their voices harmonizing so beautifully that it always brings me to tears is “Can’t Help Falling In Love With You.”
Mitch has a voice for the ages - yes, a bit trite - but his diction, his sound is just so good and we won't hear someone like him for a generation or more to come.
Someone may already have suggested this but just in case they haven't....I would love to see you react to PTX's Sing Off performances. These videos show them gaining confidence as they go from a thrown-together-last-minute group to winning the top prize. Lots of fun. Look for the videos that include the judges comments. In my opinion, those are best.
Other reactors have called Mitch a Unicorn! I can't disagree! A couple more Kirsty moments ago that she shines are in SEASONS OF LOVE and AMAZING GRACE! Love your genuine amazement! Mitchs solo of YOUR POWER is AMAZING as well as his part in AHA live in Singapore! Keep them coming!🙂
I love your reactions to Pentatonix. And I loved how you described the difference between Matt and Avi. Big hugs from Sweden 💛
Your reactions made my night! Thank you for what you do! Mitch is a force not of this world. People say he has the voice of an angel. If you want chills, wait until Christmas and listen to Mary Did You Know.
I have heard reactors who refused to believe Mitch was singing the lead. They were complaining about how the videographer kept following "that guy" instead of "the girl" ... . The little ornamental phrases could be called "riffs" or "runs."
I think we are all so happy to watch your reaction and have you love Pentatonix and this song as much as each of us does. Cannot wait to see them in Arlington next week ❤️
Hi ! Welcome to the Pentaholic family! Your reactions are great and your overall positive vibe is infectious.. Thank You 😁
I second the comment that you should watch the original video of "Gold" (by Kiiara) before watching PTX video... It's raw unbelievable..live... talent!!
Also, among the various languages they sing in, add Rap to the list... check out: "Can't hold us" (by Macklemore) & "Problem" (Ariana Grande) .. Another fun original is " Sing " and ALL of the mashups and medley songs are fantastic (my favs: "La La Latch" and "New Rules x Are you that Somebody" )
I'm looking forward to all of your Pentatonix reactions!!
Have a wonderful weekend from Arizona 🏜️
If you love Pentatonix, you should also check out Home Free. You will also question everything in life from Austin’s vocals in “When a Man Loves a Woman,” their cover of “Man of Constant Sorrow,” and since it’s the Christmas season, they CRUSHED “Do you Hear What I Hear!”
I think you may like "Gold" Great way to see them just sitting around singing.
Hay Tyler. I'm no singer or vocalist. but Mitch sings he gets into your soul. In weird and a good way. from UK 👍👍👍🦋
This was just -- it's early and I haven't had enough coffee to be really coherent, but I want to give you a standing ovation. You made my morning with this reaction. Loved it.
Crazy part is it usually takes them only one take of the song they’re that good at it every song it’s crazy
Glad you're enjoying Pentatonix! One of my favorites is "Come Along".
You should watch the live version of the 90s dance medley from the Hollywood bowl (uploaded by Miles Reuben) it is a masterpiece. I was at that concert and it was spectacular. Us Pentaholics always say our favorite song is the one thats playing...if you wanna have some fun try New Rules/Are you that Somebody or Gold. I think you are ready for some Evolutions ....there are somemany to choose from!! Also Can You Feel the Love Tonight is another one where they all shine beautifully!!
Pentaholics will tell you their favorite song is the one they are currently listening to. I can say not all their songs are my favorite, but I always appreciate their talent. It does seem like they always get better and better.
Mitch sings as a counter-tenor, which is the highest male voice range. He and Kirstie make a good vocal pairing, just as Scott and Matt make a good pairing. For the record, the "original language" for this song was English, Italian came second. It was originally written by Carole Bayer Sager and others for an animated movie called "A Quest For Camelot" where Celine Dion was the singing voice of one of the characters. Celine and Andrea Bocelli did a duet of it that became very popular. For them, the words were changed, because in the movie it was a "mother's prayer" ... Things like "Help HER find her way" "Let HER be safe" - the mother praying that her daughter would be safe while seeking help. The popular duet became "Let US find OUR way" and "Let US be safe" etc.
I love your enthusiasm & that you express yourself without resorting to gutter language.
My husband and I just took my sister with us to PTX here in Memphis for their Christmas concert. We were not disappointed. I have limited mobilities as i get older, snd it was some effort for me to negotiate with my scooter. It was worth the effort. My special Christmas treat.
PTX is my all time favourite vocal group, their cover versions are out of this world, when your Christmas play list comes out make sure you react to "O Come all you Faithfull" you will never want to hear it any different again, also I hope listening to a cappella music will open your scope to include other groups like "Home free, and "Voiceplay"
I thought this was a Grammy worthy performance . . . . but alas, it didn't happen. However, their entire album where this song is on, was nominated for a Grammy 2023.
PROPS to them . . they are amazing and only getting better and better!
Speechless is a normal reaction to this song. Simply magical and loving your reactions!!
Pentatonix has a way of making every reactor run out of adjectives very quickly especially if they're trying not to repeat themselves.
Just a new note to this incredible song... PTX was just nominated for their 4th Grammy for the Evergreen album, which is where this song is from. I know fans were hoping this song in particular would be nominated, but the entire album is now in the mix for their next Grammy (Matt's first, so I really am "Praying" that they get it). Please react to the behind the scenes documentary that was created for the making of the Evergreen album. It's amazing to see how they work together to create this incredible music. Then, it's time to review the entire album to see just how worthy it is for that Grammy. Have fun! We'll be there every step of the way with you.
I really enjoy watching you react. I've been a Pentaholic since 2012...and I remember feeling the same. Thank you!!!!
Amen, amen, amen. Mitch is just superhuman.
And yup! Scott has a very interesting ability to be able to do foreign languages really well, despite not actually knowing the language. He does it here with Italian, and a while ago he did it with French when they covered a song called "Papaoutai" by Belgian musician Stromae. He's just so good at pronouncing the words right. (Not as perfectly as a native speaker, of course, but soooo good otherwise.)
😂😂😂 Oh man, you had me rolling the whole time! I’m literally crying from laughing so hard. I love love love when reactors are just as mindblown and flabbergasted by this song as I was the first time I heard it.
