    Dear Scott, Mitch, Kirstin, Avi and Kevin,
    The chances of you seeing this comment is slim. But I needed to post it.
    My friend Claire.... you met her this year in Brisbane. A lovely 24 year old who adored your music to her core. She passed away two weeks ago after a long battle. I've not been able process it yet, but just then, as I watched this, I felt an amazing sense of joy that Claire is no longer in pain.
    Your music touched her and helped her on her journey. I only wish she'd have had more time to hear this one ❤Whilst I was always a massive fan of yours, for also helping me on my health journey, today it connected with me on such a deep level that I'll never ever forget.
    If you ever have a moment of self doubt please remember this. You are inspiring others in ways you may not even realise.
    Love Bridget

They are amazing better than any other singers I have ever heard sheer vocal beauty.

      THANK YOU! Honestly, I don't understand why people think they're lipsyncing. It sounds almost exactly like the studio version, but you can hear a few differences.

    • @SlythysGaming

    • @TheJoblacki
      @TheJoblacki 7 років тому +7

      100% sure lip synced. Its just impossible to provide this quality of sound and definition in a live concert. Maybe they sung live, but for the video they remastered it with a studio version of the song. :)
      however, still a good performance + song!

      It's sort-of give and take. There are moments when they're undoubtedly live, like when they switch from person to person that has their own specific verse. Scott, Avi, Kirstie, and Mitch each sang live (at least for their start). The chorus and in-betweens I believe were lip synced along with most of the A Capella beat. The end/climax is also live. I'd say it's equal parts live as it is lip synced.

    WARNING: Detailed video breakdown and explanation below.
    Thumb up so others can read for themselves!
    Allow me to preface this by saying that I am a true, hardcore Pentatonix fan. I have been following them closely since 2011, and I own every single song that's been released on iTunes.
    I also sing/perform as a vocal bass, and have for many years, so you can imagine that I've probably memorized every solo and bass part that Avi has. I record at home in my own studio and produce, mix, and master all of my vocal samples. I might also mention that I've listened to their studio rendition of Hallelujah countless times.
    As a hardcore fan, I owe it to pretty much every other fan and, of course, PTX themselves to dig in and defend them when their credibility is under attack.
    However, as a musician and a perfectionist, I also think it's imperative to call it when I see that something is amiss.
    Seriously, I could probably out-fangirl most of the people that are going to be pissed off at me (and in blatant denial) after reading this.
    I have listened (with studio monitors) to this performance about six times now.
    This next part is going to hurt some feelings. The hive-mind PTX fandom tumblr lurkers are probably going to roast me alive below. Oh well.
    *1.* Beyond a shadow of a doubt, parts of this performance are lip-synced to a pre-recording.
    I'm assuming that this was not by choice of the group. You have to realize that big-time producers of prime time television squeeze their margins of error so tightly for things like this, that they probably didn't give PTX a choice in the matter.
    Parts of it were cherry picked, and their mic gains were adjusted accordingly. Kudos to the guy running the sound. I'm sure he's paid accordingly.
    *2*. I KNOW what Avi sounds like when he performs live, I've heard him perform in person, and I know for a fact that he did not *flawlessly* copy and perform his solo from the studio recording. It's just not humanly possible. (although, if anyone could do it, it would either be him or Mitch)
    The timbre, the vocal inflections, the subtle nuances from that ONE take in the studio - It's all there.
    It's either a direct rip from the studio recording, or it's slightly remastered in an attempt to match the acoustics of this performance hall.
    Avi did *not* sing his solo live in this video. Sorry guys. They've had some absolutely outstanding live performances lately, but this was not all live.
    *3.* Scott tripped up a little bit on his entrance at 0:58. Watch his mouth closely. You heard "Da-da-duum" as Avi was about to sing, but you didn't see it from Scott. (and Kevin just doesn't have the range to hit a G2 without serious frying. He's a tenor, through and through.)
    Lip-sync!
    Granted, every note I hear afterwards is most definitely Scott, whether it be live or pre-recorded. He has a particular tone when he sings at the bottom of his range, as everyone does.
    Here's what was real:
    *1.* Scott's opening verse. That was legit. (They also wouldn't dare lip syncing someone whose face is zoomed in to the max from the beginning. Accidents can happen, as shown at 0:58)
    The melisma, the "riff ticks", everything. He has a knack for nailing it when it counts.
    *2.* I do not doubt that Scott sang the bass part during Avi's solo.
    I am fully aware of his range, and that he sings a D2 in "I Should Tell Ya Momma On You"
    He is probably capable of frying a low Db or C.
    *3.* The climax following 3:30 was, for the most part, totally live. Avi was a god here.
    *4.* Mitch's solo. At least until "It's a cold and it's a broken..." It's Mitch. 'Nuff said.
    I am a hardcore PTX fan, and I always will be.
    However, that does NOT reserve the right for me to make excuses for my favorite band when I know otherwise.
    In an instance like this, I just have to get over it, take a step back and think "wait a minute..."
    Then the reality hits, and I think "Oh. Primetime National T.V... If it was their choice, they'd do it totally live."
    Guys, you just have to remember that by participating, they're getting a lot of air time and exposure that a LOT of people will see. The producers of the program pretty much have the final say in what transpires and how things go at these events.
    That is all.
    Remember to be civil. We all love PTX, and we have way too many reasons to be happy and just move on.
    Keep calm, and sing on :)

      @bcn1gh7h4wk 7 років тому +9

      it _is_ lipsync.
      I had my doubts, but I've heard them live, and even with her ability there's no way that Kirstie can pull off that high note the way she does here.
      it sounds almost identical to the video version.
      Mitch's high note at 3:10 IS the video track.
      there's a small fade between actual audio and recording, very subtle, but I have an ear for those.
      if you have the tech, overlay the video track, inverted, on top of this one, and cancel it out.
      you'll see the difference.

    Lyrics:
    I heard there was a secret chord
    That David played and it pleased the Lord
    But you don't really care for music, do you?
    Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
    The minor fall and the major lift
    The baffled king composing Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
    You saw her bathing on the roof
    Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
    She tied you to her kitchen chair
    She broke your throne and she cut your hair
    And from your lips, she drew the Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Baby, I've been here before
    I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
    You know, I used to live alone before I knew you
    And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
    And Love is not a victory march
    It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Well, there was a time when you let me know
    What's really going on below
    But now you never show that to me, do you?
    But remember, when I moved in you
    And the holy dove was moving too
    And every breath, we drew was Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Maybe there's a God above
    But, all I've ever learned from love
    Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you?
    And it's not a cry, that you hear at night
    It's not somebody, who's seen the light
    It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah

      Hi Carliza, just a very friendly FYI, it's called lip-synching when people synchronize their lips movement to a song but don't actually sing. It's what Milli Vanilli got in trouble for in the early 1990's because someone else was singing/recording their songs but making the public believe it was them by lip-synching pseudo-live performances. It was a huge scandal. LOL!
      Anyway, I must agree with you... Pentatonix is EXTREMELY TALENTED and real!!! I'm so glad I found them. I will be looking for more. :-) :-) I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE their cover of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody and Hallelujah. Absolutely brilliant! :-)

    I always feel my boy Kevin doesn’t get enough recognition in comparison to the other members. His skill and artistry is the foundation of every song and throughout the years he has constructed some crazy percussion around songs most beatboxers have no clue how to handle. He has a wonderful gift to both blend in or fade back at just the right time while at the same time taking the crescendos to a level, in volume, complexity, and intensity, astounding for a single percussionist all the while constructing them using only his body!!!

      They are killing it because they are layering in pre-recorded backing vocal tracks just like they did on the recorded version. Avi's voice is uniquely identifiable and while Scott did some good lip-synching his voice in it's lowest registers, just doesn't have the bone chilling heft of Avi's. MOST of the singing was live, but where the sound swelled out so "next level" there was some recorded backing vocals that sounded note for note identical to the recorded version. That's because they WERE the recorded version. Don't get me wrong, I love Pentatonix. But come on people , be real here. They are great but nobody can sing two, three, or four tracks simultaneously. It's still a great performance.

    I've heard it said that love is blind
    That pain and heartaches all you'll find
    And baby, it was true until I met ya
    You lifted me from dark despair
    And showed me what it means to care
    And now my heart is singing hallelujah

      Yes often the others are more recognized, even though as "under dogs" of the group since scott sometime is seen as the lead singer and obvious.

      That guy it is (in my opinion). I know a lot of people don't fully understand the lyrics, but I remember reading Hozier's interview about what his meaning behind it was and how I felt the lyrics were interpreted to myself. Being that he doesn't mean to "forbid" institutions, it's more of the ideal behind them and likeness of other organizations that can make you lose yourself due to it being "bad". But that song wouldn't be a "politically correct" song for Pentatonix to cover as it is directed towards who you really are or what you enjoy can be shameful or a sin (sex, sexuality, etc). So, my earlier comment about a satire and not going to church, it's like you could do as a dog is told, but you'll be judged and they have tons of their own lies. This was longer than intended... LOL

      He is gender fluid and goes by both he/she and him/her. Mitch frequently wears women's clothing, but can also rock the masculine look. I guess it depends on what he/she is feeling that day.

    Just once, I'd love to hear a recording of this song by them, broken out into the individual tracks for each singer to hear exactly what they're doing line by line. Especially Scott and Avi, the way they switch back and forth between baritone, bass, and lead, depending on the verse, but come together so seamlessly as a whole.

      If you just listen closely, it's pretty easy to differentiate their voices. I don't know how else to help you other than to tell you to learn which voice belong to who, and then just keep your ears peeled. Watching their videos helps too because then you can see who is singing what.
