THAT PART never fails to get people, myself included. So glad this one touched you and showed the absolute beauty that it is.
So powerful!
@@JenniferGlatzhofer That's what music can do. Enjoy!
@@JenniferGlatzhofer I've seen this 100+times..... girl you made me cry along with you 🥺
If you allow me to add... Absolute beauty in that part and also showed the beauty of a lovely human being, not shy to share emotions and a message with the world. Lot of respect, Jen!!! Loved this one!!!
@@JenniferGlatzhofer you absolutely saw the meaning behind their overlaping individuality being a beautiful "mess" then the unison on showing that we are essentially one, one race, the HUMAN race.
Not sure if it's been said yet in the comments but the sign they pass between each member is showing what not only connects them but what each of them are individually. Mitch starts with LGBTQ+ then passes that to Scott who also is in the LGBTQ+ community, then flips it to man and passes it to Avi who flips his sign to Jewish and flips again to American, then passes that to Kevin, who flips it to black then to Christian and passes it to Kirsten who flips it to Latina then to Woman. I personally feel that this version of the song along with the signs is what this song was meant to be. I think John Lennon would have been proud of this version.
Agreed, I think they did a perfect vision of what John was trying to tell us all those years ago.
And it’s my understanding that Scott taking the LGBTQ+ sign from Mitch was his first public coming out as a member of the community.
@@DennisKovacich I think he was out way before that....Scott and Mitch started their Superfruit UA-cam channel in 2013 which was devoted to the LGBTQ+ community. The song "Rise" on their channel was specifically done in response to the Pulse Nightclub shooting which targeted the LGBTQ+ community.
@@trishmartinez-cox4070, well, that’s what i read in the comments on other reactions to this video. That’s why I said, “It’s my understanding.” Thanks for the info.
Quite possibly Avi’s greatest contribution to PTX was encouraging and instructing Kevin in his singing!!! Their FIVE part harmonies (whether with Avi or Matt) are truly special!!!
To me, this has always been a synopsis of what makes PTX great…individually they are very VERY talented, but as a group they are STUNNING!!!
Music is meant to touch the soul. There is no need to apologize for the tears. All of us pentaholics have shed a tear or two while listening to their music. Great reaction.😀
Agree
It was Avi that worked with Kevin on his singing. It gave Kevin the confidence to sing. Even though Avi left the group, Kevin and Avi are still really good friends and Avi was there at Kevin’s wedding.
The moment people find out Kevin has the highest voice is always wonderful to see
In my opinion - this is their best wall of sound ever.
Sometimes you just have to kick back and let it wash over you. Your job can be hard when you need to keep objective to react, but the message is so powerful. I bet more that a few of us tear up while watching this. Maybe that's a part of what it means to be human.
Exactly! I lovee that she decided to take that moment to listen and feel and then going back. Sometimes things just need to be listened to. Doesn't mean she cant go back and do her job, but feeling this one is the first priority, I think.
@@hernameispekka_Rebecca I would never be able to do the job myself as I spent half the video wiping tears.
So beautifully said. ❤🧡💛💚💙🤎
Oh, I'm not sure it's the reacting that's tough. It's the analysis part that's hard in moments like these. Sometimes, the reaction is all that's needed and it becomes the analysis when all is said and done. Music is meant to be heard with the ears but felt with the heart. The head doesn't need to say much, when it's done right...and Pentatonix definitely pulls out all the stops here.
Jennifer! WHAT a song to end Pentatonix week on! Wow! Clearly they got to you! Hmm, no tissues ... this will have to do! 🧻😁 Just an amazing week of great music and incredible Jennifer reactions and analyses! This was a lovely song with a great message and what amazing musical imagery as you pointed out. Doing their own individual things and then ending completely as one. Thank you Jennifer for a brilliant reaction and analysis today and for a great week! 😊
Thank you so much!!! I know, should have got the tissues hahah!
If you want to extend this to a fortnight or month of Pentatonix I will be here for that. Thanks Jennifer!!!!!
I have loved this week. Extension into Christmas music?!!!
"We are all the same - and yet so individual. And we should be celebrating that" Not sure if I've heard it put that succinctly before in a review of this performance. That brought a bit of a tear to my eye even though I've seen this song dozens of times.
Imagine by Pentatonix may be one of the most important videos of this century. This group took a classic, timeless song of tolerance and peace and modernized it as only they can. They are a perfect example of what respect and love can be like. Five people with differences in race, religion, gender, and sexuality can do beautiful things when they work together. I cried when I saw and heard this the first time. I still usually tear up when they go into Wall of Sound mode.
It is true...PTX doesn't do covers, they do upgrades!!
Yeah, this hit me that way too when I first heard it. One second I was fine and then crying like crazy. It's hard to take 'Imagine,' message and all, and make it your own and recast it for a new generation, but they did that, for sure.
DAMMIT, Jen - I have seen this a bajillion times. I have Gotten Over Crying At It. And theeeeen, here we are, watching you get overwhelmed by it, and **I didn't have any tissue handy**.
Thanks for the insights into the singing. Thanks for letting it hit your heart. Thanks for sharing all of it with all us Internet Randos.
Same here! I started to cry when she did
@@charon2302 Me too! 🥹❤️
Such an important and beautiful one. I love how after they show their signs they musically tell us how beautiful things can be when you do your own thing TOGETHER with others. They are all singing their own thing but in harmony with each other. I love how they even musically show an example that being different makes the music better.
The 'wall of sound' and the message on this one always gets to me too. Great reaction and assessment.
That Wall Of Sound... hits you out of nowhere... then the pause, allows you a breath to wipe away tears... thank you btw for reacting to this.
No matter how many times I watch it, it gets me every time.😭💞💞🥰
This one hits most of us. Makes me cry every time. xxx
Me too 🥲
Yes. It may be because we WANT so much for the world to accept us for who we really are. Even the tough alphas have tender moments. The weak among us often have all the internal or moral strength. We need all our qualities. We SHOULD celebrate and accept all as necessary.
i swear this song makes me cry every time i listen to it
Loved your beautiful reaction to this beautiful song! Always gets me! You are a wonderful reactor and always have interesting thoughts! Thank you!
Thank you!
i can't even count how many times i've watched this video and it still gets me every time. Lovely reaction, I absolutely adore how you can pick out the tiniest things they're doing and make me appreciate the song even more! thank you so much!
I share that same reaction every time I listen to Pentatonix Imagine.
I have literally watched this video going on a few hundred times now, and it still gets to me. I don't blame you in the slightest for that reaction. They hit the sweet spot, they stuck the landing, and then they proceeded to melt our faces.
When this video came out, in early 2017, made the message hit even harder and had me sobbing every time.
Although not my favorite song (a version of utopia that will never realized), PTX does a fantastic job on this both visually and harmonically. I am constantly amazed how groups like PTX and Home Free are able to "remake" a song into their own... not just "cover" them. This song really showcased Avi's abilities. Truly a great version of this iconic song. And, as I always am able to say, Jen has once more analyzed the snot out of it so that I will never hear it as I did before -> now knowing all of those little nuances that she pointed out. Thanks Jen for sharing your special talents! Love it!
I totally get you with the utopia. However what we can do, is trying to hold that up. As it shows, if the great majority is behind the idea, then there will still be violence, but less of it, and it will also be acted upon. Little violent groups don't have much of a chance in a majority that stands against them. A functioning democracy still has its enemies, but as long as the majority stays strong, it can still serve as a safe haven. Germany is still a relatively safe haven right now, although some forces now also begin to rise here, and majorities are getting shifted. The U.S. are obviously already way past that, although they also still hang onto that thread: it's not over yet.
Perfect way to end the week (although I get to end it with them live in concert). This was fabulous. I really enjoyed this week with you. I hope you do this again with some of their Christmas music.
The wall of sound NEVER fails to YANK on people's heart strings. I myself (very much a CIS male) have had tears in my eyes, whenever I got to that point in the song the first few times I watched the video. I've seen many reactors to this video get tears in their eyes or actually start crying because of the beauty of the voices performing that beautiful song.
I would absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE to watch you watch their small film "The Recording Of Evergreen" & hear your breakdown of it... ❤️
Yes! Especially now with their Grammy nomination for that album
This song affects a lot of people in that emotional way (me included). It's not unusual for a reactor to end up blotting tears, so please don't feel bad about letting it happen - it just proves that you're a caring human.
I've thoroughly enjoyed your Pentatonix week of analysis and reaction, and hope you might consider another one later in the year, since PTX rules Christmas music!
great analysis, dont be worried about the tears thats what makes you a special human. i like the fact Pentatonix & Home Free can entertain and still deliver a message
I have probably seen this video 100 times and it's still brings a tear to my eye and I swell with emotion. Love your knowledgeable analysis of the vocals and your genuine emotional reaction to this song.
Such a beautiful song and what a great reaction! This song brings me to tears every time I hear it. To see a world of kindness and love would be so wonderful.
I am so FREAKING HAPPY you watched this one! It is one of their most beautiful and dynamic covers. From the wall of sound to Kevin’s solo it is a true immersive experience. You should check out some of Kevin’s videos. He does some amazing live looping.
This video has made me SOB. It’s so beautiful and powerful. That wall of sound grabs ahold of your soul.
You did it! My absolute favorite version of this amazing song. I LOVE your insights as always, but as important, I love your honest emotional response and connection with the important message of this song and arrangement. To me, this is still the apex of Pentatonix, who bring it for EVERY song, but this one is technically masterful as always, but they use their incredible talent and strategic choices to perfectly illustrate themes that we all need to recognize daily. It's just the best. So are you. Thank you for this week!
Thanks so much!
11:08 Not me crying along to you 😭😭😭, this was a very lovely and genuine reaction.
We've all been there, brought to almost involuntary tears by their music. What a gift it is to bring forth such emotion. That is what makes Pentatonix standout.
Yup…gets me every time….every time..
This may be my favorite cover of theirs. It's definitely my favorite version of this song, and it NEVER fails to bring me to tears. It is so beautiful, powerful, poignant, and absolutely flawless. I'm so glad you finally got the chance to see the video. Wonderful reaction and analysis!
I BAWLED the first 5-10 times I watched this!!!! It’s just stunningly beautiful on every single level: the message, the quality of vocals, the arrangement, the mind-blowing talent… I just… wow!!! Also, while I love all of your analytical musical breakdowns, I also appreciate you sharing your humanity and emotions with us, too! 💕
Thank you 😊
Thank you for just being you. Watching your reactions is both fun AND information packed. And I fully understand why sometimes you just give up and laugh.
They have so very many truly outstanding performances, yet somehow this one keeps coming back to me as truly special. Perfect even and so heart-rending. Glad you showed emotion as this performance draws the emotions out of all of us.
I tear up EVERY TIME hearing this one, just listening or watching and I can’t even count how many times I have done both. Thank you so much for your genuine emotions and knowledge. This week was fun!
I love that part where they break into their own parts. It's like they were proving a point that while each voice is stunning in its' own right and should be listened to and appreciated, it can and should very easily harmonize with the other voices around them to create a beautiful harmonious melody together. It is an important lesson. We are each important and should be heard but not to the exclusion of anyone else. We would find the world would be a more wonderful place to live in.
Yes! And while appreciating everyone’s differences, if people cooperate and work together, like Pentatonix, sometimes the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. If they don’t work together their differences might create a cacophony of noise.
And the laser focus that happens when Kirsten drops the vibrato before the intense section..amazing..
The Wall of Sound Jenn & the Message, gets too me every time......Peace !!💯❤️🎙😎🤘
Yea, reactions like these man… this is why I search PTX reactions everyday. I may only find one like this every 3 months or so, but MAN are they worth it
This song never doesn't me bring tears. Your reaction was genuine because you felt it the same way most of us did!
This arrangement/video/message never fails to get me. Thank you for this reaction Jen, your insightful analysis, and always for your kindness. 💖
A Brilliant arrangement sung by Angelic voices with a Loving message of an already Beautifully written song. Thoroughly enjoyed your reaction and analysis through tears. It’s tough getting through this one even years later without shedding a few.
Thank you for the Pentatonix reactions this week. Looking forward to more during the holidays hopefully??
Levely reaction, Jennifer ❤. Honestly, I was very touched the music moved you to tears. Because of your technical expertise your reactions are typically quite “heady”. Of course, analyses are based on using our head (analyze) but music itself (the physical vibrations) touches our hearts and your heart could not help but be moved by the chordal progressions and musical expressions Pentatonix displayed just before the end. It was nice to see your emotional side, it endeared me to you 😊❤.
Such a beautiful reaction when it hit you.. Kirstin's voice does that to me quite often.. makes my eyes leak.. Mitch's too... I love these guys!
Jen: I loved your reaction to the 'Wall of Sound' section...
Wall stops
Priceless!!!!
Btw, this is not the only song they have a 'Wall of Sound' ... that's one reason that we Pentaholics have a term for it, and they always knock it out of the park when they do it!
I have seen this video dozens of times or more and I still tear up. I would have been disappointed if you hadn't. They are truly incredible. Thanks for the reaction!
Might be the best version of Imagine I have heard so far. I could listen to them everyday. And I usually do. LOL
Jenn: "...the dynamics within the phrases....a little slide, a little diminuendo and crescendo on some notes..."
Um..... sure! All these technical details are WAY over my head but I'm glad Pentatonix knows what they're doing even if I don't :) Knowing that someone who actually KNOWS what she's talking about appreciates what they are doing merely cements my notion that they're on a whole new level of talent.
Jenny thank you😢 true artists❤. Love how you praise them.
You did great Jen. I loved your analysis! Wonderful.
I loved this week of PTX videos! Looking forward to what you have store for us next! This video is so meaningful! Especially when it came out. Sending love Jen❤
Thank you! ❤
This song is so beautiful! I listen to it often and just love hearing all of their voices!! If you want to hear more of Kevin's lovely voice, I highly recommend his cover of Sign of the Times. So good!
I love how you almost clicked it off when they started that transition to the last verse and then you just couldn't. I've seen some reactors who did stop it in the middle of that and always wondered how they could bring themselves to do it. 🙂
Absolutely loved your reaction !! Sending you lots of hugs from France.
It's so lovely seeing you react to the truth of Humanity.. our individual yet unity as Human beings. Felt blessed .. and you talk music wonderfully...
If you choose to do another 'week' sometime, you could do Avi's Change is on the Rise, Kevin's Down, Scott's Mars, and Kirsten's Break a Little, all of them have videos! This was everything I was hoping for, thank you so very much!!
That would be amazing. Or do 2 weeks and do the ones you said but also Mitch doing Your Power or Messer, Matt doing Ain't Nothin' and either do 3 day weeks or add a superfruit song for each week. Doing Ptx side project weeks.
Seconded! Deep dive time!
Thank you for the ideas!!
@@JenniferGlatzhofer I love the side projects but instead of Change on the Rise I would recommend a live performance Avi did for 7 layers sessions. It beautifully displays his voice as well as his great songwriting abilities. All is Well by Avi Kaplan, 7 Layers Sessions
I cry every time I watch this video…and I’ve watched it a thousand times… thanks for your reaction…it validates mine. 😢❤
I have never seen anyone get through this without tears. Another great reaction I have been waiting so long for you to do this one. Keep up the great work Jenn!
The true power of music on display, it's ability to move us to action or make us feel. Lovely reaction to a lovely powerful performance. Wouldn't miss one of yours. Truly appreciate your breakdowns...really, sincerely I do mean that.
Thank you 😊
Aww! You got emotional like I do EVERY time I watch this video! Love all your reactions and analyses. ❤
Aww you’re a literal sweetheart ❤ this video touched my heart as well.
Great reaction to one of my favorite PTX covers ever,. Don't feel all alone that it got to you, I've seen it hundreds of times and it still gets me. Its just they're artistry at its very best. Would love to get an Avi week sometime 😀
What an amazing reaction... we know PTX always hit you in the emotional nards
The part that really blows me away is how the last line is sung in absolute unison. Pitch, timing, elocution, everything. Absolute unity.
Beautiful. I hope that you continue to react to Pentatonix, this was an awesome week. Thank you
Your reaction.....heart felt......is awesome and understood
Great reaction. I think their version of this song and the simple but effective message they deliver affects everyone who sees it for the first time. So glad you let the climax play thru without stopping it before going back and doing the analysis. Well done! The more videos of PTX you watch you will find that Kevin is the most underrated member of the group. He has a beautiful high tenor voice, plays cello, often times while simultaneously beatboxing which he calls “celloboxing”, plays saxophone and speaks multiple languages including Mandarin.
Thank you, Jen 🧡
Glad we managed to pursuade you to do this one. So worth it. I knew your reaction would be emotional. I've watched it lost count how many times and it still gets me every time. 🥲
What a beautiful and genuine reaction. But also wonderfully informative.
Thank you.
Could you maybe make a specific Pentatonix playlist? Thanks for the reactions.
Yes!! Will do that, thank you 😊
@@JenniferGlatzhofer Thank you. I've really enjoyed your reactions.
I remember when I watched this video and cried through the whole performance!! The vocals are amazing and the message just put it over the top!! Love this one so much!!
❤🙌🏻
I enjoyed your take and analysis all 5 days! In fact LOVED IT! They are so incredable, individual and as a group! Will be back for more! Thank you! Keep doing what you do!
You can spot a true Art, when nobody is able to pause in that "wall of sound" moment. Time stops in this part of song... Great reaction Jen! And it's good you got emotional - first it means you have a beautiful heart ❤️ and second - maybe it'll make you want to get to another PTX week sooner 😉
I've seen it many times now and it gets me every time 😢😢
I cry every single time I hear this song - it grabs my heart! And that wall of sound is ....... stunning. Thanks for the reaction.
I can't tell you how many times I have watched this, or someone reacting to this and I still tear up every time. Such a powerful message.
Your reaction was amazing!! To watch the reaction as the sound washed over you. Such a genuine reaction. Just beautiful! 💕💕
Wonderful reaction as always. It was a truly beautiful and genuine set of moments when you experienced your strong emotions during the break down and once again at the end. Your emotions and masterful analysis is what makes your reactions to different artists so enjoyable. I always look forward to seeing and hearing your reactions!
Lovely reaction and I really appreciate your analysis! I've seen this video countless times and it brings tears to my eyes every time. Beautiful message beautifully sung.
Awe Jen 🤗Sending you lots of love and a big Birmingham hug to you as I know there's probably a load of out-takes from this one. You're not the first and definitely won't be the last to have this reaction to the song. I remember being so shocked hearing Kevin with his range as it was one of the first times we had really see him take a full singing part in a song. A perfect song to finih the week with 🥰
That is one of the most beautiful and honest reactions I have ever seen!
Was so excited for you to get to that breakdown. Loved the whole week. Thank you Jen.
Thank you!
It’s definitely an emotional one! Love this video so much.
Jennifer--such a beautiful reaction, to a beautiful song, with a beautiful message appreciated by a beautiful reactor, with a pure heart. Thank you for sharing with us.
Definitely hitting in the feels!
It makes me cry every time! I'm so touched that your emotional reaction was so strong while still focusing on the mechanics and musicality of this song. It sneaks up and slaps you in the face emotionally, and the message is so appropriated for now. What an excellent reaction! Thank you so much.
STUNNING ❤️
One week really isn’t enough for Pentatonix ❤
Thank you so much... perfect song to close out the week with...I cried with you!
I have never gotten inured to the sentiments in this one, and I hope I never do. So happy to cry along with you! Thanks for finding your analyst's voice through the tears. I learned so much about they are achieving those beautiful sounds. Now if someone could explain to me how Pentatonix manages to so deftly capture our hearts. The power of music, I guess... 💖
It's good to see how when you are trying to be analytical, your feelings overtake you. I'm a big fan of PTX I get why you got emotional. Good for you that you have a heart. You get a thumbs up and a personal like.
What a gift you are! Thank you so much for this PTX week (Monday through Thursday, I know), it was a journey I was only too happy to take with you. I will be eager to see any new Pentatonix reactions you care to post. Personally, I don’t care if you have seen the video before or not, you could do their whole catalogue and I would be there for every single one. Love the insights you offer, and love the emotions you display, from delight to tears. Peace from Ohio …
Usually I like first time reactions, but with people who have specific insights (like voice, beatbox, stage performance etc) a bit more research or a re-watch is still very fun and interesting. They still bring more to the table than a genuine "woow, that was awesome" haha
I can’t watch your reaction enough! Thanks, brings a smile to my face. Good song, really good heart felt reaction.
