I love their story. "Shortly after graduating from high school/Yale, we catapulted into stardom! Well... we had to wait for Mitch. THEN we catapulted into stardom."
emilyfaith
OH lol my bad, it was just my condensed version. Not really a quote. I learned recently that Kevin had just graduated from Yale like Mitch had graduated from High School. I don't know if he had to miss his graduation like Mitch did, though.
Leigh Tkd Mitch did have to miss graduation to audition for the sing off but it was totally worth it!
Caitlin Rodriguez
Definitely :D I just wondered if it was the same situation for Kevin, also. I heard he had JUST graduated from Yale when they did all this. I think it all worked out perfectly for them! I'm glad Mitch doesn't feel like he missed anything lol
1. No mics or gear
2. Classroom with bad acoustics
3. Recorded on a cell phone
And they still sound great.
Anyone charging them with being "manufactured" should watch vids like this.
Actually it's a choir room so it's acoustics are actually pretty good. But they do sound amazing, as always, regardless.
You prolly dont care but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can watch all the new movies and series on Instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my gf lately :)
@Kamden Cristiano Yea, been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself :)
they sing studio-quality perfect , holy shit
I love this video also because they students are respectfully quiet, unlike their concert videos where you can't hear them over all the fangirls screaming.
In a few years the crazy fangirls who dont ever shut up should be gone considering a lot are there because they think the boys are cute.
I've found that most of the "fangirls screaming" are because they are singing along to the music. They don't sing along if they don't have a loud sound system.
7:03 Avi and Kevin look up at each other like, 'oh shit we get to sing!' and gosh if i don't love Avi's smile...
they need to come to my school ...for educational purposes
taylor salazar what to know how to lip sync by you can't sing
(Just an FYI I am talking about myself)
taylor salazar just to see avi dancing and singing low notes is literally my lifes goal
i like how they're like "doo love you long time!!!"... ptx hesitates for a second and all of a sudden ..."NO BODY EVER LOVED ME..." lol
if I was Pentatonix came to my choir class someone would have to put me in about 100 straight jackets with about 500 pound shackles around my ankles
Rebecca Stephens they would have to put me in one of those bubbles so I wouldn't flood my school with me crying from their BEAUTIFUL VOICES
I love Kirstie and it just appears how she is happy to sink into background singing in these early videos. She STILL shines, but NOW she belts like Scottie and Mitch! To me-as a composer and pianist- Kirstie, to me personally, is the one in whom I’ve seen the greatest growth! There is no shade on anyone in PTX! The band is the greatest on the globe!
It's silly but I like how scott and avi voices harmonize at "I'm so happy you're mine" 6:07
It's not silly, that was beautiful, I caught it and I was like hot damn lol.
Kirstie at 2:41 like yeeaaaahh that's right y'all we rock!
Avi killing the overtone
I feel like it'd be really cool like if someone was a freshman when they were seniors and now they are seniors and they see Pentatonix performing, it would just seem like a really surreal experience
Yeah that would except Kirstie and Scott were seniors while Mitch was still a junior. But that would still be surreal.
that's crazy, that some people sitting there used to go to school with them!
some of those kids were probably there when Kirstie and Scott and Mitch were seniors and so now seeing them so successful must be really cool for them
I never noticed Avi was almost as short as Mitch, that's adorable
He's not really. I think you're getting a foreshortened view because of the position of the camera. Avi is 5'11" :o)
Nina O I'm now a bit confused myself, tbh... Pretty sure Scott is 6'3". When standing next to him, Avi looks a *lot* shorter, not just 4" shorter. Can't imagine him making it up though. Mitch seems shorter than 5'10", as he never really towers over Kirsty, does he? Anyhoo, I'll be meeting them soon, so I can report back. I can also get specific inside leg measurements on request ;o)
Helen Ayres kirstie is always in heels tho, so that may affect our estimates a bit
tahsa bell Yes, am aware she nearly always wears towering heels, but I think she's quite short. There is no way that Scott is only 4 inches taller than Avi! Which he would be if they're 6'3" and 5'11". Also, Kevin is 6'1" so should only look 2 inches taller than Avi.
Conclusion: Avi needs heels... ;o)
Scott's voice is just so versatile!! Whew u betta sing!!
Man scott can really sing when he wants to and how come I see your profile picture everywhere.
Scott is the perfect lead singer. He knows how to lead and give the others their moments.
I am so ADDICTED TO THESE PEOPLE it's violating lol pure pure talent..... !
how does some random camera in a room sound better than some of their performances on shows they have on youtube
churde Because the sound doesn't dampen as much in a closed-off room, the way it would in a stadium.
+churde It sounds nice... but, for example, you don't get Avi's bass line very clearly... and the highlighting of whoever it currently soloing suffers a bit because the accompanying harmony tends to overwhelm / unbalance... versus having a competent sound engineer... balancing the pots.
This is gold. At this time, they didn't know how big they would become today. I love those 5 individual humans sooooo much.
I would be so happy if they came to my school.
Lily is I go to Martian highschool Bc I’m on stem. They also came to my elementary when I was in school (Ashworth elementary)
The band that sounds just as good live everyone
At the very end Scott like "That final different harmony was your work, Avi? And Avi like :-)
0:48 Avi notices the camera lol
I go to the same high school they did. They were recording some of they're Christmas album with the seniors choir that day.
Avi always cracks me up when he "air basses"!
Avi hold those hips, there are people under 18 in the room. They are not ready.
"Look Cameron it's HD" LOL
I wish they performed" Love You Long Time " more :( It sounds so perfect live
how are yall just so neutral? AVI KAPLAN IS IN FRONT OF YOU AND YOU JUST SIT THERE.
They were showing respect and actually listening which I for one thank them for. Usually at live performances quality suffers more because the audience won't shut up and let them sing.
I actually have met all five before at a concert. And yes we're are super used to seeing them around
SAMIE2011ify1 remember they are in a high school CLASSROOM! ... probably with a prissy REPRESSIVE teacher keeping them in line.... lol
"check out this picture on my phone" at like 3:16 ... uhmmm nooooo look at the beautiful queens less than 5 metres away from you omf what are you doing
"The one in the hat sounds like a girl" Yes, yes he does. And do you know how extremely rare and amazing that is.. he is a countertenor and for a man to sing like a girl is something that isn't funny at all and is actually something that you should be amazed by. Have several seats.
olivia my friend can't stand his voice cause "he's gay" and I'm just like fuck off he's adorable and if you can't see that too bad you loss!
Ironic that he’s won 3 Grammys, toured the world, sings to sold out arenas, can out-sing most people (women included) but has to go back to his own high school where he was once mercilessly bullied for his voice to get teased. It’s no wonder it took him so long to embrace who he is. 😢 Mitch may not have heard you, but the kids sitting around you did. Don’t be THAT guy honey…I hope you’ve come around as you’ve gotten older and wiser, and hopefully learned to embrace all that makes us different. 💛 All the best to you in the future, I hope you find a way to pay the apology forward. xo
HOW ARE THEY SO CALM I WOULD BE SOBBING MY EYEBALLS OUT
Kirstie voice is perfect!!!!Cool
Wow. I had awesome respect for these guys anyway, but hearing them perform without mics in simply a classroom is fantastic. It shows their true musicianship. Balance is incredible!
Kevin's Rap Breakdown Is Reigning, A Beat Boxing Beast!
this lucky class room. Particularly those who were sitting behind Avi like YO.
Gahhh I love them so much. How is it possible that a group can be so talented??????
I HAVE BEEN INSIDE OF THIS ROOM.
I HAVE BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM AS PENTATONIX THIS IS NOT A DRILL I AM THINKING ABOUT MY LIFE
IM GONNA BE GOING THERE NEXT YEAR IN JV SHOW CHOIR
THEYRE GOING ON A WORLD TOUR
THIS COULD VEERRRY WELL HAPPEN
I
NEED
HELP
AND
OXYGEN
I love how each person is wearing at least 1 item from the actual Boston concert!
Dear lord they're incredible
I freaking love kevin
GUYS COME TO MY SCHOOL MOSTLY NO ONE KNOWS WHO YOU GUYS ARE THEY NEED TO KNOW!! And if I was in that room then Mitch, Scott, and Avi run bc I wanna hug ya lol I would have to be held back from hugging Mitch they would have to pry me off of him I wanna have a shoppin day with Mitch and check out guys ☺️😂
Omg a shopping day with Mitch. That would be the most amazing experience ever
How can you stay still and not fangirl when Pentatonix is fucking right in front of you especially Avi and Mitch I would go crazy and probably die
That was ridiculously great! I wish I could have seen them live. They sang one of my favorite covers "Let Me Love You A Long Time" or something like that. If you have any other videos of them visiting your high school, please share. Thanks for the video.
The "lo-lo-lo" parts are just aaahhhhh
Wtf Mitch and Avi are in front of you how are you not all going crazy
All i gotta say is Kevin is amazing.
Love You Long Time @ 5:34 was the best. Have not heard the other 2 they did before. I think they did such a good job especially when it was without equip.
Thank you for posting this again. I love this performance.
If PTX came to my school, my friends will have hold me to my seat and cover my mouth from screaming
Son Increibles! Los amo.
IF I WAS THERE I WOULD BE HEARD FROM CHINA
+Jackie Villegas are you in boles or young? I'm going there too lol :3
+Emilys KawaiiDelights No i go to Arlington High School sorry.. and isn't boles a middle school ?
Awesome!
Amazingly proficient for their age group . . . especially without any professional setup and the unconducive environment of a classroom. Beautiful ability to stay on pitch with competing riffs complicating the texture.
I realize this comment was made 8 years ago but "proficient for their age group"? Amazing is the word and for any age group. You go into a classroom having to deal with all the memories of being in that very room as an awkward high school student, be asked to sing songs you normally don't sing together, especially since you are there to record Christmas music, and sing like that. Dare you. They are very much beyond "proficient ".
Aaaaggghhh their old days get me so emotional :')
They gave me goosebumps
Kevin's just over there jamming
THESE
PEOPLE
DON'T
KNOW
HOW
LUCKY
THEY
WERE
Love the songs especially End of Time
Did you notice how often often Avi looks the others ? Much more than the others do...
Why do the people in that room don't fangirl or even react to PENTATONIX!!!.. I mean if I was there I would scream like a maniac😂❤️
Lmao at the description xD
I wish Pentatonix could come to Great Falls SC. Middle School
They need to come to Bristol Eastern High School in Connecticut! My entire school loves them almost as much as I do and would be absolutely thrilled!
this made my day great!!! thanks guys! PTX is awesome!
Awww Avi looks like he's air guitaring from 6:30
That was great! The video quality is good too. Most live performance recordings like this are...not. lol
2:24 yass
wow, i hate this. just what is wrong with sounding like a girl?! in fact, what is wrong with doing anything that's like a girl?!
Mitch is perfect the way he is, and that includes his voice.
Thank you!!! It's so true haters back the heck off mitch is freaking awesome like he is have a problem with him being his self then keep it to yourself bc ain't none of us gonna want to hear it!! Glad that you commented this I totally agree with you Mitch is great how he is
Sasuke Uchiha why can't men or women act the way they want to act? If a man wants to be feminine, can't he do that?
Sasuke Uchiha but they are all humans. Therefore, I don't think anyone's gender should get in the way of what they want.
+Sasuke Uchiha So do you hate people with mental disorders then? It doesn't matter whether you think a trans boy is a girl or not, he deserves the same respect as a person who isn't trans deserves. There is no place for hate in the future, and we're moving towards it.
Is that Ben Bram leaning over the computer back there? Wouldn't surprise me! :)
My thought: "HI BEN!!!!!"
Man I wish I had friends like this *~*
These folks are wonderful. I could listen all day to this talent. This takes practice, power and ponfidence, sorry, couldn't find confidence that started with a P. lol. Great job, when are you comming to Fantasy of Flight Aircraft Museum in Polk City, Florida? Let's think a bit about this venu. They have Roctober Fest in October.
This is fuckin incredible. I love Pentatonix
The golden age of PTX...gosh I miss the way they used to be.
2017

Avi looks like an evil puppet master at 8:12

DUDE I'D BE LOOSING MY JUNK!

The whole group finally made it.

Avi loves to dance, doesn't he? :D
YEAHAHA doing the highschool some real justice with those homonyms.

How about contacting Lego Land in Winter Haven, Florida for a concert and meet and greet?
