I think Kirstin has always been a stellar vocalist, she was just more shy and didn't really want too much limelight. I think she didn't give herself enough credit when it came to her vocals. She grew up with Scott (power, confidence) and Mitch (ethereal, angelic, super awesome) so I think she thought they should be shining while she provided support. With age, I feel her confidence has grown so she feels in the same league as Mitch and Scott. She is showing us what she's got, that's for sure! I love it! Thank you for this reaction!
For the last year & a half, Kirstin's confidence & swag...........Love it !!
absolutely her confidence grew so much as well as her voice has developed and become better with age making her the amazing vocalist she is now!
Also, when she got cast in Kinky Boots(I *think* I remember reading this somewhere) she got a vocal coach, which she'd never done before. She learned how to really use that voice in an amazing way. Can't wait to see her in Children of Eden!
I've been waiting 2 months for this reaction. I love Tara's comment, "they let Kirsten off the chain".....YAS
She changed a lot doing Broadway.
I was certain Mitch would go for that high note in this arrangement and when it was Kirstin I was SO HAPPY I've always loved the texture of her voice and always felt she got under-utilized after they were on the singing competition.
The growth in confidence Kirstie has shown in the last few years is incredible.
I honestly thought she was always confident.
@@azekel7687 You can actually notice the difference between pre-broadway Kirstin and after-broadway Kirstin, it's so awesome :P
Getting cast in Kinky Boots did wonders for her technique and confidence.
the work she's gotten done probably didn't hurt
Fun fact time: Kirstin majored in musical theatre and was in a musical on Broadway in 2018 when she played Lauren in Kinky Boots. So a song like this is like made for Kirstin. And I agree they just let her do her thing and she went full pelt and I love it.
If you couldn't tell, this was a LIVE performance, whch just makes it that much more impressive. The Kirstin-beast has been unleashed!
Are you sure? I thought so at first but a few of the camera cuts catch them in different positions. Like 7:05 'measure' is one of the more obvious ones, her head faces a completely different direction when they cut from the shot of Kirstin to the wide shot.
It wasn’t fully live, unfortunately
Mostly live. The vocal track was live with minimal post. The video component was pieced together from the best shots of a few takes (and obviously some extra video clips).
It’s pretty much how most “live” shows are produced.
@@winterhorses it was prerecorded so they will definitely use multiple takes and effects in post. Thats pretty much standard.
It’s not surprising that they wouldn’t do fully live for TV. They aren’t in full control and not the ultimate decision makers. Producers/director would want to play it safe.
Kirstie had a mike drop moment there. Loved the smile when she knew she nailed it. Good job Kirstie.
This was Kirstin's chance to publicly prove what she's said before - she can sing just as high as Mitch.
In the early days of PTX, Kirstie was focused on Mitch. I think she thought of Pentatonix as "The Mitch Grassi Band," or something similar. For her, the *reason* they were going to L.A., appearing on _The Sing-Off,_ and attempting to win a recording contract was that they wanted to introduce the world to the incredible voice of Mitch. If Scott and Kevin and Avi got recognition as well, that was just so much icing on the cake. Yes, they deserved it, but the important thing was getting Mitch recognized, and maybe healing some of the pain he'd suffered from high school bullies. As far as her own voice was concerned, it was just one more tool she could use to back up Mitch.
I think that attitude toward her own talent began to change when she starred in _The Wizard of Ahhhs_ and the men in the group (including Mitch) were all so proud of her. Then when she got the role in _Kinky Boots,_ and aced it, that experience finally brought home to her just how talented *she* is, and that she, too, is worthy of respect, and admiration, and solos.
I also think that she wouldn't be such a good performer today if she hadn't discovered her own talents slowly. I think that her empathy for and admiration of Mitch has increased her ability to appreciate talent wherever she finds it, even in herself. And I could be totally wrong about that, but it feels right to me.
Agreed. Also with her own childhood and trauma she didn't have the confidence to go and get it the way that the others did, she was just grateful to be included.
In the last chorus, Kirstie wasn’t improvising. Her break away from the melody of the chorus to those vocal liberties were part of the original arrangement from Seasons of Love in the Rent musical, sung by the soloist (ie Kirstie here), including the high note at the end! And she sung it flawlessly!! just an fyi :)
Scott’s run that she talks about at 1:57 ish is also exactly as written. In fact, the only time anyone really goes “off-script” is when Scott does the male solo, iirc.
Funnily enough, the RENT movie version of Seasons of Love had all these as well, even the male solo (which was covered by Collins).
Improvised section. As in the adlib section. Even if the ad libs are written, the section is still called the improvised section. Because it was improvised in the original. But go ahead with your semantics.
Thanks for pointing this out to everyone, I was a little confused that not many people realized she pulled it off identically. That's the best part of the song for me, and it is in fact deliberate and true to the musical.
So glad to see you cover this. When I first heard Kirstin drop that high note I SCREAMED!!! So glad to see her step up as a soloist.
Tara, the vocal arrangement that they did for Amazing Grace is incredible. You should definitely do a review of their rendition. With that said, another knock out by these guys. Great review by you too ;-)
Kirstie's confidence has grown so much over the years, I feel she's the one that has grown most of all of the other members, as a person and as a singer. She's really coming out of her shell recently. I feel like she really shines in "My Favourite Things", "Be My Eyes" (she wrote that song) and "Come Along" (I think in this one you really see her confidence coming through). Also in "Once Upon a December" from their last Christmas Album, although that one doesn't have a music video.
It’s “Kirstin” not “Kirstie”
@@calebdell9937 No she often goes by Kirstie. On professional things after the first few years of PTX she goes by Kirstin, but when people talk about her and in informal settings she uses Kirstie. It's like Mitch doesn't go by Mitchell very often (only on the most professional of things).
Thank you for mentioning "Come Along". That song doesn't get enough attention and is an amazing display of their talents and very fun! I found an even bigger appreciation for them after I heard the original version. Pure genius PTX!
@@calebdell9937 `my name is Kirsten but you can call me Kirstie` starships by Pentatonix she literally says this
they really need to make a broadway album o.o
That would be so much fun to see!
@@BH-iq3ic they started too, thats what this song was originally recorded for, but the album was abandoned
I’ve been saying this for sooo long! I wonder why they haven’t put one together. Maybe it has something to do with getting the rights for songs. I know some composers won’t allow any real changes or adaptations of their songs. 🤷🏻♀️
I don't know if you know it, but they are going on a "Christmas Tour" starting in late November....AND....they are releasing a new Christmas album Oct. 29th called "Evergreen". Can't wait. Thank you for your EXPERT analysis. I love your reactions. I learn so much from you.
This was about folks surviving AIDS BTW - counting the minutes - thankful for time - not joy
Those two things aren't mutually exclusive. While alot of show was about folks LIVING with AIDS, the song itself is finding joy in the small things they DO have time for until it's their time. It's a bitter sweet song. So you're right but she's right too.
Still think you’ll love their cover of Amazing Grace. It’s truly outstanding & I think it’s their best as a group and possibly even the best for each of them individually ✌️💚
Please please react to amazing grace by pentatonix - Kirsten sounds so good in it it sounds like the angels have descended
It's always nice when Mitch can take a break and let us be reminded that there are two divas in this group.
You don't think Scott's a Diva? Have you seen him in their videos? 😊
@@Russ_Keith Lol, yep, 3 divas. The trio got that base well and truly covered. (But yes, glad Kirstie got her moment to remind us why she's queen.)
There are stars (five, in my book), but no divas. To me 'Diva' includes connotations of attitude that I just don't see in any of the members of Pentatonix.
@@rudewalrus5636 It gets used in that way, for sure, though it started out referring to a celebrated female opera singer and continues to evolve from there. I don't think, when Beyonce gets called a pop diva, that they're talking about the spoilt-brat mentality that also gets contributed to the word. An interesting etymological shift, for sure.
Yes I love Kirstin's "punches" and that super high note was just .... something else from outer space. I love your reactions, thank you.
Kirstin channeling Minnie Riperton 😎🙌🌈
What Kirstie is singing is primarily as it was sung in the original version of Rent. You might want to listen to the version from the 1996 Tonys.
Now you see why Kirstie was starting to break free from the rest of the harmonies... she was working up to that impressive end. Or maybe she was elevating us to be ready for it - it would have been nearly fatal to us mere mortals if she hadn't eased us into it.
Kirsten sang with voctave (for a second time) in their rendition of Show Yourself from Frozen 2. Highly recommend it (as well as many of the other songs from the Album)
Isn't Scott just doing the classic tenor harmony? I may be wrong
That was great! I love the riff that Kristen does just after the high note.
Have you checked out Diana's latest performance on new NTV show?
Kirstin..🥲
Love pentatonix
We've all been waiting for almost 3 months to see you react to their Capital 4th performance. You're right. It does seem as if they "unleashed" Kirsti on this one and just said go out there and belt.
2:34 KIRSTIE! What an amazing vocalist 2:47 that was all I needed 🤯🤩
Did anyone else notice the harmonic coming from Kirstie? Some people would call it undertone.
Please do pentatonix amazing grace my chains are gone your really gonna love it
pentatonix feels like the avengers of accapella/music.
That high note around 7:19 reminded me of Mariah Carey letting loose. You go, gurl!!!
Geesh, Kirstin was on FIRE in this one.
PLZ REACT TO ADELE 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤
Very good and educated reaction. Much more on point than many I've seen. PTX is phenomenal and many enjoy their amazing works but don't really understand just how talented they actually are collectively and individually. Thank you. Looking forward to watching more from you.
Feels like I'm listening to my math teacher teaching me calculous in 3rd grade in my elementary and dissecting a human body at kindergarten. Never thought that singing could be this complicated. Good job as always, Tara! Thank you so much for the knowledge.
What do you mean dissecting a body in kindergarten???
“Can you feel the love tonight” Pentatonix!!
I think she did that one already
@@zoer5333 It’s not on her playlist.
@@chrispavlich9656 I could’ve swore that she did it. Weird
@@zoer5333 Does she have more than one channel? Maybe it’s there.🤷♀️
💥🎼🍁❣🙂👍Hi Tara 🙂🍁🍁🍁 Hi and best wishes to all fans of Pentatonix. Can I ask Tara react the newest performance of Diana Ankudinova here? 🙂
New tv show from NTV Channel NTV (in Russian - НТВ, ШоуМастГоОн) ShowMustGoOn, September 25, new cover from Diana. This time Presley there is CANT HELP FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU.
Crazy version 🙂 Thanks. Tara you are excellent reactor, I see all your reactions 🍁👍🍁👍🍁
You should react to her National Anthem. It was too good . She hit all the notes correctly!!
Love your breakdown of Kristin's vocal. I think she has gained confidence after her stint on Broadway.
Happy manic Monday.....Tara 🤗❤😎👌
Girl, amazing reaction!! & informative! PTX definitely developed their vocal skills in this pandemic. Just wait till you hear their cover of The Prayer. They did part on AGT recently AND we Pentaholics are hoping the full version comes on their new Christmas album, Evergreen!!!
Please please please react to come along by ptx!! Always love your reactions :)
Greetings, Tara! I'd be interested in getting your vocal analysis/reaction on Nao's Tiny Desk Concert performance of "Bad Blood" or "Orbit." She's always been one of my favorite vocalists to date due to her dynamic range, song structure and distinctive tone (loosely reminiscent of Karyn White).
ruclips.net/video/xdGLK_sOWb0/видео.html
I've included the link for said performances; the aforementioned performances' durations are: "Bad Blood (4:29-8:46)" and "Orbit (9:00-12:49)". Hopefully this finds you well and you're able to enjoy her talent as much as I do. Many thanks!
React to the performace of the coaches in the voice!! Ariana grande and kelly clarkson killed it!!!
A lot of the "improvising" you pointed out was actually in the movie version of Seasons of Love. That being said, of course they completely nailed it, truly amazing. 👏
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏thanks for reacting to more Pentatonix✌️💚
7:08 KIRSTIN!! BABY WHAT??!
Every song where i don't need to listen to Mitch to much is great. Kirstin killed it in this.
Lmao do you not like Mitch of something?
Hi Tara, we might be the same age, do you remember the song Don´t speak by No Doubt? It was an absolute hit when I was in high school, now PMJ released an amazing cover: Postmodern Jukebox "Don't Speak" No Doubt Cover ft Haley Reinhart. Could you pls react to this? I am sure you will love it. Thanks a lot
Please react to Pentatonix singing “The Prayer”
Just released off their new Christmas album
EVERGREEN
Can't wait to see you react to Amazing Grace from Pentatonix.
Yup love your ptx reactions! More please :)
Ditto on the comments on Kirstie's performance here ;-) Makes me happy to see and hear her come into her own
I actually think, could be wrong, but I think the lower riff you stopped to listen to was Mitch - his runs have a different quality to them than Scott's and he was singing lower than Scott quite a bit in this one, which I loved
Enjoy your reactions and insights into vocal production ❤. Also greatly appreciate your enthusiasm for Pentatonix, I find them so darn creative, they really think outside the box and hit us with unexpected musical gems consistently. If you haven’t yet reacted to “Say Something” Kirstie has the lead almost entirely and it is a very different kind of song for PTX. It’s quite somber and the group never once smiles in the video. Kevin plays the cello. The song is about heartbreak in committed relationships (“say something, I’m giving up on you”). It is devastatingly beautiful and I know you’d find great appreciation for this side of their musical expression. I have Liked and Subscribed and look forward to many more rewarding reactions.
I always forget to ask for some react, but pls react to Gabriel Henrique singing "I want to know what love is"
I'm Brazilian and I'm very proud to see an artist of ours being recognized 😊
Please react to Pentatonix "Love me when I dont"
Gave me goose bumps. She nailed it
Please please react to PTX My Heart With You. It’s a masterpiece.
Listening to Pentatonix is a blessing already, with explanation from you, even better. Thank you Tara.
I totally thought they were going to have Mitch do the improve/high note mix at the end. But Kirsten pulled it off amazingly well!!!
Please please please react to their Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) I recommend it every time I comment on one of your videos. Please to anyone who has influence. Please recommend this for the rest of us. ✌️💚
Kirstin kicks butt on this one, and you’re the only reviewer I’ve seen review this 😊😊😊😊😊Thank You
Please react to agt the ptayer by ptx and victory
You need to listen to the Glee (TV Show) version of Seasons of Love on RUclips. Theirs was more powerful than Pentatonix. This was great but the Glee version is slightly better. Please check it out.
Please, react to "Through the Fire" by Gigi Vibes!!!! 💖
WOW! That whistle note that Kirstin hit, really got to me! PTX is such an amazing group, and their technique and harmony they use , is so beautiful and on point. This is really a great reaction! You look lovely Tara. God bless you. 🙏❤
I didn't think it was a whistle. It did rock either way!
I think she doesn’t improvise cause movie Rent Tracy Toms sing just like that ☺️
You're beginning to talk too much!! I used to subscribe but, see ya girl...

That was awesome.
Kirstin is growing stronger everytime we see her.
😍🎼🎙
Just a MAGNIFICENT performance!! They recorded a studio version of this song that appeared on their Christmas album last year. I was hoping they did the same arrangement in this live version. I watched the show that night (July 4th) and was literally shouting with joy when they did an even fuller version (with the choir) of the studio arrangement. Kirstie's time on Broadway has paid off in such a big way for her. I've been saying that they've let the genie out of the bottle and there's no way of putting her back in. She has been taking over this group and getting a LOT more leads, writing or co-writing a lot of the original songs (she got writing credit on half of the songs on their new all-original album), and has finally become the shining superstar she was always meant to be!
I say this every time, but please react to the new videos from Voctave
Could you do a reaction video to Pentatonix cover of Can You Feel the Love Tonight? Kirstin does a note at the VERY end of the song (as they are all singing the last word) and I want to see if you can catch it. It's very subtle, but I thought it was really cool.
Pleasee Tara react to Amazing grace. Guys please help to see this comment her
Wow That was awesome,I just love watching Tara's reactions she is real and Genuine and I really like the things she points out and breaks it down for us .thank you Tara .Pentatonix is great and this performance is probably my fav so far they all sounded really great and kristen wasn't playin she sounded great and that mix head chest pop whistle thing sounded amazing. Thank you so much for sharing Tara your amazing an remember spread faith not fear ,love not germs,Be a blessing in a stranger's life,Because that's how we change the world. Love that saying tara so true.🎶🎼👏🏼💜💚
Kirstin really said 2020 left me unhinged and I'm living for it.
Im just wondering, why youre not reacting to morissette amon anymore?
For what it’s worth, they recorded this song with essentially the same arrangement for the Christmas album they put out last year. We were absolutely all shook by Kirstin’s performance at that point and I loved watching the live-ish performance here. I love her so so much and I’m glad you do too.
Wow she has serious pipes I get what you mean the bluesy comment
If you wanna see more Kirstin pleaseeee react to Amazing Grace pleasee. Love you so much. ❤️
I first get geese bumps from Pentatonix and then from your vocal analysis of them. That's a like & sub. 👏👏
We Pentaholics are always talking about being Mitch-slapped. But now we get a Kirsty-slap! 7:11 I was living for that reaction, Tara, you didn't let me down 😍😍
Reaction dimash new song qaragym ai 2021
Please react Amazing Grace by pentatonix
You should react to anything by Guy Sebastian. I particularly like the live clips from The Voice Australia ruclips.net/video/ED0v9YuVpiE/видео.html or ruclips.net/video/CWC7xSejy8A/видео.html or his REALLY live video here: ruclips.net/video/9DqE3Uj2MMs/видео.html
Please listen to these Korean songtresses, Bigmama. You will definitely fall in love with them. Their hamonies are absolutely divine! Bring you right back to the early 90's.
ruclips.net/video/OsRogAzmsF8/видео.html
Yep, yep... that extra note did a lot for me too. Lol. Kirstie!!! My goodness! 🤗
How have you not reacted to white winter hymnal yet?? You,’ll love it
Check out Pentatonix singing The Prayer on AGT! Would love to hear your thoughts on this one!
ruclips.net/video/HLgR3peRxOU/видео.html
Love your reactions!!! You need to react to the New Gabriel Henrique cover - All By Myself (Celine Dion) - ruclips.net/video/RX4iHKPXMb8/видео.html
This obviously wasn't true-live, but I don't think it's lipsynched. I don't know which you meant by previously recorded. I think they did it earlier that day, multiple times, and just picked the best take.
The first song that can remember of that Kristin has the highest note, versus Mitch.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do it's been a long long time that they just put out today. It very short but spectacular!!
I still wish you would do can't sleep love from the popsprings concert bc it felt like to me Scott wasn't in the pocket some in the first part of the song. Plus Mitch is in baggy overalls, raps with sass and hits that super high note at the end. I'll put the link in here just in case you see this.
ruclips.net/video/VxXeJGNAZCk/видео.html
Always learn something in your reactions to them and love that you love them like we do!!
Hi Tara!!!!! Please react to Jaya's wish bus performance. Please please you won't regret it. Thanks and have a great day ☺
