This is one of the most underrated PTX Christmas songs. I wish it had more attention. It is so amazing beautiful, I’ve never heard a song quite like it. I listen to this all year.
I don't blame you guys one bit. I'm just ashamed to admit I didn't know this song existed until very recently... Whoever ridicules listening to Christmas music at any time doesn't truly appreciate it
I love how Avi Kaplan and Scott Hoying Switched Places. Avi is singing lead and Scott is holding the Bass (techincally Tenor) and I love the beat drop!
Scott isn't a tenor. He is a baritone. Mitch is a tenor (technically a countertenor). I think Kevin may be a tenor or a very high baritone, based one what we've heard from him.
I love this group of amazing singers. They weave harmonic tones like the finest tapestry ever made. God bless them for bringing perfect harmony to a crazy world! Merry Christmas!🎄🎄🎄🎄
+AvatarIsAmazing haha yeah it kind of is I was joking 😂 just the stress falls at a different place and it's a different time signature etc. but I feel ya with the groups of 4 claps, ignore me
Oh, how much I want to hear a live version of this beautiful song! So, so good!!! Avi as the lead singer... MIND BLOWN... And the end... wow again! PERFECT!
How I first heard Pentatonix and their songs 1st song: Run To You - bought the song 2nd song: O Come, O Come Emmanuel - bought all their albums they are too good..... :3
Lyrics to the song: Oh, come, oh, come, Emmanuel And ransom captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel Oh, come, our Wisdom from on high Who ordered all things mightily To us the path of knowledge show and teach us in her ways to go Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel Oh, come, oh, come, our Lord of might, Who to your tribes on Sinai's height In ancient times gave holy law In majesty and cloud and awe Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel Shall come to you, O Israel
"O Come, O Come Emmanuel" Oh, come, oh, come, Emmanuel And ransom captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appears Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel Oh, come, oh, come, great Lord of might, And to thy tribes on Sinai's height In ancient times once gave the law In majesty on cloud and awe Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel
I can feel this song deap in my soal. I think deap inside I feel “captive” and I already know this but “lonely”. The forces of darkness are alwayse getting at me. Its a pretty disturbing experiance. I used to sing this song when I didnt know how to handel it as well. I was so lonely and misreble and felt like nothing ever even knew that I was fighting these battles. but this song gave me hope and made me happy and help realize deap inside I know that I have a Savior that helps this specific problem! Which is more then it sounds because I NEVER feel like things have anything to do with it to a full honest extent. I think I even accedently lie to myself about it. This song even helped me feel validated because it doesnt have anything to do with the oppinions people through at you left, right, forward, and backward, its just the amasing pure beautiful truth. I need to be real to myself because being lost feels worse then having hope in real but harsh circumstances. I cant aknolage the great power of Jesus to heal me authenticly if I dont authenticly see my problems and circumstances. I like to listen to this song to help me be more real to myself and worship Jesus and be happy.
This is so beautiful. Listening to it after Christmas and will continue for a long time. Avi's voice is so warm and perfect for this song. Like melted chocolate. So good!
I am right there with you, listening to this on repeat right now...for some reason i just craved it XD AND I THINK THAT EVERYONE WANTS A LIVE!!! or a music video BUT LIVE!!!
I would just like to point out that the wind sounds in the background are incredibly well done in this one :) The sound effects are always awesome, but they stood out to me as particularly great here. #ptxforever
I'm so glad I found this song. Someone else posted a video of it and I fell in love with Avi's voice. They need to either do a video or a live version on this song because it's absolutely beautiful.
In case anyone missed it, Pentatonix made an appearance of AGT on 12/19/16 as part of the Christmas Spectacular. Needless to say that they were indeed SPECTACULAR!!!
I don’t know if anybody has noticed this, but Kirstie’s note at 0:13 and how it clashes with the rest of them sounds so beautiful. The dissonance it creates just gives me this vibe that’s almost ethereal. In a way, perfect by being imperfect.
OMG You are so right! I never noticed that before. Even after so many years you can find something new and interesting in their arrangment. That‘s so amazing!
Merry Christmas! It's 11:51pm right now, and I'm listening to my last Christmas Carol until December of 2018. For those who don't know, Avi Kaplan is the lead singer I this one. He left in early 2017, and the PTX fanbase is upset over this. Just know that he's doing fine, and is continuing in his music career. And with that, goodnight.
I love Avi's mid-higher range so much. I get chills on his low notes, but I want to cry every time I hear his baritone voice. Literally breaking into tears.
82 people who dislike this are fools. can't their appreciate how smooth and majestic avi's voice is? and the harmony... what makes them PTX truly stands out
This was posted exactly 6 years ago and I’m just now discovering it. This is one of my favorite PTX Christmas songs and I’m absolutely in love with it!💖 Merry Christmas!
Namjoon gives me wings we sing some others too, like: somebody's knocking, Als ich bei meinen Schafen wacht (it's a german one) , Carol for advent and so on...🎤
I was sceptical when I saw they had chosen to do this song. But yet again PTXofficial has managed to recreate a classic as though it were new! Well done. Stunning voices!
The way they sing this, the harmonies, the composition... this song literally resonates with my soul. I can feel it in every part of my body somehow. This is why I love music so much.
You have no idea how much self control is needed to watch this around Christmas time and not August.
+Michaela Testerman I agree :) That's why I listen to it in August. Also... HUFFLEPUFFS UNITE!!!
YESSSSSSSSS
+Michaela Testerman YES.
HUFFLEPUFFS.
OMG ALL THE HUFFLEPUFFS!!!
why resist the urge when you can have christmas for 365 days...XD
I love Avi's voice: soft but majestic! This is a stunning Song
I know right?! :)
ITS SOO CREPY BUT ENJOYING
K d Lang constant craving
This is one of the most underrated PTX Christmas songs. I wish it had more attention. It is so amazing beautiful, I’ve never heard a song quite like it. I listen to this all year.
Ashly R Same it’s one of my favorites
Yes,they r awesome..love frm India❤️❤️🇮🇳😇
I agree!! I love avi❤️
I love this one. It’s haunting too
@@mimi_jI prefer to think of this song as a happy thing! “Rejoice” means to be happy and delighted, not to be haunted! :) Isaiah 40:25
This sounds so natural, and yet you would never guess that the lead is a bass. Amazing vocal range!
@Brian Puskarczyk Avi is a bass. I think he has a pretty big vocal range.
Brian Puskarczyk he’s a bass that can transition into baritone and even tenor in some situations.
Tbh bring bass is a mix of genetics and technique. It's just dropping your larynx and fry
@@tanneradams20но у него высокие ноты глубокие, а не козлиные, как у теноров
Avi Kaplan: from thunder and earth quakes to melting butter. He really is amazing.
This is like a stress reliever..and yes i realize it's May..

Avi's voice is SOOOOOO fucking beautiful. I CANT STAND IT!!!
I love when Avis voice does that cute crack when he sings. It makes my heart swell with love
It is called a vocal fry and is one of the most difficult singing techniques to master
Lewis Gunter avi literally didn’t do the vocal fry once during this song? He couldn’t have anyway, since there weren’t any low notes
his voice sounds like butter, more avi leads please!
I swear their voices can put you right to sleep, it's so soothing
Also when Avi is singing 👌👌👌👌
omg yes!!!
Phanic! At the 21 deathly hallow black parade
they put my 7 week old to sleep!

I love the little clappity clappities
katie drinan same 😂
and the swooshy swooshies, too!
i love the kevin bell sounds
😂😂😂
Clappity clappities seriously
Avi slays every song he's singing (vocal not background) in 😍
Avi's voice it's just amazingly perfect !!!!
I love how Avi Kaplan and Scott Hoying Switched Places. Avi is singing lead and Scott is holding the Bass (techincally Tenor) and I love the beat drop!
Scott isn't a tenor. He is a baritone. Mitch is a tenor (technically a countertenor). I think Kevin may be a tenor or a very high baritone, based one what we've heard from him.
ok thanks for the clarification, I thought he said at one point that he was a tenor.
@@razrv3lcКевин может петь сопрано 😂
I love this group of amazing singers. They weave harmonic tones like the finest tapestry ever made. God bless them for bringing perfect harmony to a crazy world!
Merry Christmas!🎄🎄🎄🎄
The clapping sound in the background is the heartbeat of a Time Lord :D
No it's not
+deutsch lernende Yes it is.
+Melody Fussell The clapping has five beats, not four.
Beth Morgan It's the Time Lord. The Time Lord can clap as many times as he wants.
+AvatarIsAmazing haha yeah it kind of is I was joking 😂 just the stress falls at a different place and it's a different time signature etc. but I feel ya with the groups of 4 claps, ignore me

And the end... wow again! PERFECT!
Amen, God Bless!
+Abi “je vous déteste tous” Thomas Alleluia !!!!
My favorite song from their first album. I'm in love Avi's voice.
This isn't their first album...
Do you mean their first Christmas Album? Cause I'm not sure myself 😅
Avi's voice is the most wonderful human voice
This song brings back some Run To You feels..
How I first heard Pentatonix and their songs
1st song: Run To You - bought the song
2nd song: O Come, O Come Emmanuel - bought all their albums
they are too good..... :3
too true
Lyrics to the song:
Oh, come, oh, come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel
Oh, come, our Wisdom from on high
Who ordered all things mightily
To us the path of knowledge show
and teach us in her ways to go
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel
Oh, come, oh, come, our Lord of might,
Who to your tribes on Sinai's height
In ancient times gave holy law
In majesty and cloud and awe
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel
Спс
Спс
+Vlada what does that mean in English??
+Tyler Reynolds Thank you
+Tyler Reynolds Emmanuel means "God with us." Awesome isn't it! ^_^
avi in this ahhhhh it gives me chills everytime
pippa lange !vau;
Listening to this on Pandemic
"O Come, O Come Emmanuel"
Oh, come, oh, come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Oh, come, oh, come, great Lord of might,
And to thy tribes on Sinai's height
In ancient times once gave the law
In majesty on cloud and awe
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Thx
Can we just praise both Scott and Avi for their range🙌🏻
Or praise God that gave them their gifts.
I don't think anybody understands how HUGE Scotts vocal range is, like JESUS CHRIST
Scott does get pretty low in this song, too.
Uh oh, is someone triggered by the word hun?
RabbitLovesYou I honestly don't even remember commenting this. Who pissed in my Cheerios Jesus.
Haha, it's fine. I like being sour in youtube comments anyways, it's rather fun
J'Karree Jefferson man, the mouth on you.
Pentatonix is life... Simple.
Yeash
yes
Agree
Beutiful harmony about God GOD ROCKS !!!!
I love all of their voices but Avi´s particularly crushes my heart and makes me cry, and that´s what I like in a singer, to be able to move me :)
Avi's voice = emotion, passion, love, perfection, soft, strong, sexy, powerful, soothing, majestic, love and more love ❤️ Oh and did I mention LOVE? 💖
Oh Avi you marvelous creature, you.
i wish that one day AVi will make his own Christmas music OMG I am the first listener if that happens.
His voice is Heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That would be amazing!!
First of all, Avi is Jewish. Secondly, he's mentioned that he got a bit burned out doing the Christmas albums every year.
avi's voice
Avi's voice is so perfectly chilling for this song 😍
True Christmas 🌲
Hats off to the Recording and Mixing Engineers.

This song has the feel of being rocked to sleep in a warm blanket after drinking hot chocolate
This is so beautiful. Listening to it after Christmas and will continue for a long time. Avi's voice is so warm and perfect for this song. Like melted chocolate. So good!
3:04 💖 the background vocals. Merry Christmas!
Avi's voice if full of passion and so is my heart
OMG the seventh note that Kirstie hits at the beginning and the end, WOW!!!
I LOVE all the Christmas songs and hymns Pentatonix do! They have such amazing voices
Middle of October and i have no shame listening to this NOW lol
I'd love to hear a duet between just Kirstie and Avi, or maybe Kirstie and Kevin.
It has to be a Kavi duet
or kevin and avi? #avin?

+The Kind Gamers there are some moments where it's only avi and kirstie on duet and they're always lovely magical moments

My daughter loves this song and she's 11
Avi's voice is like an ANGEL.OHH MYYYYY GODDDD
i think avi's voice is so compatible with this song. just imagine it lower and I will go crazier for avi.
The way they sing this, the harmonies, the composition... this song literally resonates with my soul. I can feel it in every part of my body somehow. This is why I love music so much.
It’s BER months here in the Philippines, and I am watching these over again while waiting for the new album!!!
