Avi's bass is phenomenal. I just can't get over him. In total contrast is Mitch's soaring high voice is simply amazing. Kevin is a beast! Everyone in Pentatonix is exceptionally talented!
Yes! This is an original. Amazing isn't it? I love how you go back and dissect the songs after your first listen. There's so much to hear and appreciate. Thanks for your input and appreciation for all music :) Keep up the good work!
@@QofyReacts that very deep drop is all KEVIN! he is doing some throat bass and Avi is adding a deep bass. When Avi is singing his part it looks like Kevin is malfunctioning!! At the end look at Avi looks like robot that shut down🤣. There is a LIVE version of this song you should react the video is under the name: 24/7 City Secrets Love Agian by PENTATONIX. Its an interview and the performance!!! They are doing it off mic except for Kevin!! PLEASE REACT TO IT!!🙏🙏
Yaaaaaasssssss finally! This is my favorite original. I mean, I love everything they do but this one is so well constructed with different sections (that fun bass before the second verse (I’m still not sure but I think Kevin does that) that Avi and Kevin bridge, that harmonized swell after the bridge, Mitch’s incredible vocal energy in the chorus). I think it was underrated. Should have been played much more on the radio. Great reaction and observations again. Thank you. 🤗
Great reaction as always! I love your energy, enthusiasm, and just plain love of good music. This song definitely qualifies as just plain good music. Avi’s bass is amazing in this song and Kevin’s beatboxing is off the hook. When he is doing that throat bass , it just makes me want to clear my throat because it sounds like it would hurt. It’s just another weapon in his beatboxing arsenal. Mitch’s high register in this song was perfect and the harmonies... just stop. Looking forward to many more reactions to PTX! You always bring a little bit of sunshine to my day😊
I can't wait for a-capella becomes mainstream. This would be an amazing played in a club. No-one would know the difference between this and an instrumental.
@@hawkeyescoffee6399 It still just doesn't seem right to me that Daft Punk won a Grammy and not this one. I love Daft Punk, but IMO this is better in every single aspect.
Yes it's an original. This one I had to warm up to but I love it now. This time you pointed out what Kevin was doing while avi was singing and that's something I Love about your reactions.
Funny you should say that Lexy because I also didn’t take to it immediately but I also love it now. I love the fact that I can go back to videos I haven’t seen for a while and I generally appreciate them more and, in this case, hear something that changes my view altogether. It’s a great song and I still wonder why my initial reaction was so lukewarm.
Can't choose between Love Again and Daft Punk , in both it's hard to believe it's only voices that you hear !! Kevin and Avi are killing it with their sound effects , especially Kevin's beatboxing is out of this world :) !! For another ( Japanese ) style , but still from this word :) , I would reccomend "Perfume Medley ".
Hi QoFy and the #QoFyGang 👋 This look is in the style of cyber goth which was relatively popular in the club scene at the time and definitely fits the "club vibe" for this song. It always reminds me of drinking and dancing with friends, so a very feel good song that is definitely an impressive original song. Their variety is amazing. I think it's funny that when there are costumes to wear, Kirstie always gravitates to the goggles, lol. She has different ones in like 3 videos, I think? I know she has them in Radioactive, but I can't remember the other one off the top of my head. But they're all committed to the look, and I love them for it. I have a soft spot for this look over the Daft Punk one only because it reminds me of my own goth days, lol. Thanks for the wonderful breakdown, as always QoFy!
What you're describing around 8:15 is called throat bass, and is being done solely by Kevin, Avi is doing something else that most headphones don't pick up very well,
I would LOVE to see your reaction to [Official Video] Valentine - Pentatonix (Jessie Ware & Sampha Cover). Unfortunately, it doesn't get a lot of reactions because it flies under everybody's radar. It came out between their release of Run To You and Say something and somehow got lost in the mix, but it is one of my favorites by them. The play with arrangement and unusual register shifts for Avi, as well as Mitch's clear and pretty tones makes me so happy and I honestly think you would love it too.
make up in "Daft Punk" is a homage to way Daft Punk look (they always have helmets on) in Kevin's shades, and the way the Daft Punk videos are for some of the songs included in medley which were Anime style animated videos also this IS original they did after Daft Punk
There's a Pentatonix reactor called Xureck who's a professional beatboxer, and he not only explains what Kevin is doing in a lot of his videos but actually demonstrates the technique in real time, when he pauses the video. It's thanks to him I can now believe that what Kevin does is completely possible, with little to no effects or optimizing on top - although it's still a hugely complicated skill that must take a heck of vocal control and stamina.
Gosh, I wish I had your knowledge🥺 thanks for basically every reaction you’ve made, I’m learning so much and plus, you’re so funny to watch! Have a nice day😊
Loved your reaction for this one!! The Daft Punk medley, Love again and Little Drummer Boy are my 3 favorite PTX songs. This one reminds me a lot of the Daft Punk medley, actually, not only the song itself but also the esthetics of the video. I think Kevin and Avi were great in this song!!! See you next time!
I have no idea how this wasn't a massive hit. I assume it's because at the time people were just thinking of them as all covers so they didn't get any radio time. I could absolutely imagine this being huge in clubs.
You’re entitled to your opinion, you don’t have to respond to that. I still am interested in what people think and what they prefer. Choosing one doesn’t make the other obsolete
i like the look of daft punk because blue is my favorite color. However, I like the look of love again the best, it kind of reminds my of like cyber punk or something like that.
Hey QofyGang! It’s been a while. Nice to see you are still going strong. Once a Pentaholic, always so, I guess. I’m only realizing now how I had so much free time during our COVID lockdown and how, as we return to some semblance of what pre-COVID life used to be, my work is again leaving me with almost no time for my other preoccupations. I love everything about this video. The fact that it’s a PTX original makes it extra special for me. As for Avi’s bass, out of this world! Unreal! Keep well and thanks for posting.
I didn’t see this mentioned in the comments, so I’ll put it out there just in case. There’s a video of them singing this song at the end of an interview and it’s mesmerizing. So much of what you hear in this video is reproduced live (no surprise there...) and Kevin is just a magical musical robot. Here’s a link someone posted that has just the performance without the interview: ruclips.net/video/GyRiez6UKAI/видео.html
Well...you always say that Mitch is an alien... BTW, this video immediately followed the Daft Punk video, so there was definitely a pattern going on there for a couple of videos.
I really enjoyed your reaction to this PTX original. I love your excitement for music while reacting. Suggestion: "Black And White" by Todrick Hall featuring Superfruit and Kirstie.
I actually love the Love Again makeup more than Daft Punk, though I love that too. Love Again has almost a Steampunk feel. And I adore the interplay between Mitch and Avi. This is an original, authorship listed simply as Pentatonix. But from clues that I've heard dropped, I believe that the writing was mostly Mitch, but with strong contributions by Avi and Kevin. And as always, Scott and Kirstie likely added their own harmonies and Ben Bram (essentially the sixth member of Pentatonix) translated everything into record-speak and balanced all the stuff that has to get balanced. As you can obviously tell, I know NOTHING about making records. 🤩
Hey QoFy 👋 just finally got around to watching this one. This is one of my favourite originals of theirs, there’s so much going on in this, huh? I don’t think you’ve done PTX’s PopSpring performance yet, it’s a 15 minute set they did at PopSpring, a music festival in Japan. It has a bunch of originals plus their Evolution of Michael Jackson and it’s good a quality video coz it was filmed for MTV. Please react to it! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
That noise is Kevin and is a throat sound. There are folks that make do throat singing in Mongolia: ruclips.net/video/6LJN0Zr57p0/видео.html. The sound is a variant of that (on the lower side).
Another amazing reaction! You point out so many things that I love about this video, and some that I never noticed. It is one of my favorite original songs - just makes me want to jump up and dance around the room. I love Avi's power-down robot at the end. That low beat just before the second verse - there is a reactor who is a beatboxer, and he demonstrated how Kevin can do this very deep in his throat. He said it is not something you want to do very often because it can damage your vocal chords. I don't know that I ever saw them perform this in concert, and that may be why. I found a live version they did for a radio show, here's the link: ruclips.net/video/1L6Ubc9IU50/видео.html

When they are finished they record it on one of their phones until they can transcribe it.

It’s not the comparison in the music it’s just the design and the paintings in both
And I will check it out
"I'm gonna cry now" lmao relatable!
I love this song, it's a shame they stopped performing it.
Love this song and your reaction, as always. Hope you are staying safe.
Glad you enjoyed it. And thank you hope you stay safe too
The distinct bass you're talking about is a beatboxing technique called vocal bass
So good
Is throat bass
It's called throat bass, and another example of this is Kevin's intro to "Problem"
Their originals are my favorites ❤️ a d Avi in this 🤯❤️
So brilliant
I’d love for you to react to LaLaLatch and Say Something. Run to You is another original.
Run to you and say something is done
Avriel is doing some "throat singing" :the sub-harmonics are incredible! And Kevin is, as always, amazing!
It’s amazing
That's what I thought originally, but it turns out that the throat singing is from Kevin, while Avi is providing the percussive beat.
