Actually, Scott deliberately changed a few notes in his part, just to prove it isn’t being lip-synced. Two of their own Christmas songs, “Thank You”, and “Please Santa Please” are two awesome holiday songs.
Kirstie also changed her part at the end. In the vid she didn't take a breath in the middle of her last solo 'hallelujah'
An interesting aside to this video: when PTX started getting famous, one of the questions people had about their videos was about over-dubbing. All anyone had seen Scott do to that point was sing high baritone and tenor parts. So when Avi started doing solos in some of the songs, everyone wondered how there was still a bass part if they were singing acapella straight. It was said that Scott, being a baritone, was taking over for Avi, but a lot of people didn't believe it, because they didn't think Scott's register was low enough to go into the upper-bass range. And so the suspicion was that Avi was being dubbed in behind his solos.
This video was the first conclusive proof that they weren't dubbing Avi in, that Scott actually does take the bass whenever the bass solos (he does it with Matt too). And the sweeping camera catches the switch-over the moment Avi starts his solo, and there is Scott, just killing the bass part all by himself. Turned out, Scott has a four-octave plus range, and his low end actually dips into the bass range a little. It was an amazing thing to see, and that put to rest any doubts about what PTX was pulling off - and it made THIS version the go-to version of Hallelujah to showcase just how good they are, because it sounds almost identical to the studio version, if not arguably better.
"Mary Did You Know" is their best Christmas song!
Their rendition of "Little Drummer Boy" is outstanding. They put a turbocharger on the original version.
Never tire of this rendition by PTX. Although technically, not a Christmas song, the arrangement and the prayerful sound of the song, lend itself to Christmas. Great reaction Phil & Sam, always enjoy PTX. ❤❤. Be careful what you say about PTX, the Pentaholics will come at you with no mercy.
Please check out their newest releases, O Holy Night, Kiss from a rose, Pure Imagination/Christmas Time is Here!!!
Yes Scott takes over the bass whenever Avi or Matt have a solo. Hallelujah isn’t really even a religious song, let alone Christmas song, BUT PTX put this on a Christmas album…. So, kinda like with Kiss from a rose because it includes snow in the lyrics.
I believe the official video for hallelujah was filmed in the Mojave Desert when it was 90°+ outside.
If you can remember this far back, the outro for the original Hallelujah video has them in these exact outfits - they were filming this TV special when they did the outro for the original video.
You have to appreciate the audience in this video - they have small outbursts for the beginning of the song, for Kirstie, and for Mitch, but the ending while PTX is humming at the end is just dead silent until the last note has been sung.
Scott picks up the bass when Avi/Matt has a lead verse. His range is phenomenal. All of their ranges are.
Correct observation, Phil: Scott takes over the bass from Avi, when Avi is singing. You cannot see this in the video, but you can clearly see it during the live performance!
Great reaction, guys...Scott did cover the bass portion of this when Avi was singing his part...You guys killed it this year doing Christmas reactions... Happy holidays to you both, and keep being awesome !!!...
Thank you! Hope you had a great holiday season!
Just BEAUTIFUL. Nobody does it like them. Yes Mitch was so Angelic. Merry Christmas 🎄 🙏
Have you reacted to "Recording of Evergreen"? Such an interesting way to learn how they work and learn together. Will go with the idea of Christmas music.
Little Drummer Boy was my first exposure to PTX. Mary did you Know is a must. It gives me chills every time I see it
You are so correct- Goosebumps every time
I live on the mid-coast of Maine, where I happened to have worked with a gentleman who played the french horn with a few friends of his. He was 81 at the time, his friends (5 0f them), were all between 85 and 94...., retired Boston Symphony Orchestra members. They told me that they had never heard such perfect harmony..., ever before in their lives. They all had the look of a solid case of "The Feels", when they listened to this song from them.
P.S. Leonard wrote this so you could change it up..., a lot. He wrote 83 different verses for it. Oh yeah, and he said in an interview, that the song is a love song, not a religious song. I think he may have said that with a "Tongue in cheek" way..., every version I've ever heard, even the few of Leonard himself, certainly sound very praise-y to me. He said it with a straight face too.
The most beautiful song with lyrics that's nobody can follow.. at all.
This is great and you should check out...Mary did you know, the Prayer, Amazing Grace and many more!!
Now you know the "Official" video was in the California desert and old salt mine. Did you know Kirstin was having difficulty walking? That is why she stayed still as the 4 guys walked up to her. Also, they wanted the ending to be at sunset over Mitch's large hat.
Leonard Cohen wrote HALLELUJAH, but not as a Christmas song. It is about life and the ups and downs as we live. Each verse is about going through hard times when we often don't think about our faith. PTX wanted to include it on their Holiday album, which means they were in the summer desert (120°+) with those heavy black coats.
Pentatonix is very dedicated to their work and it shows. Have you checked out Kevin's arraignment of "O Come All Ye Faithfull" because it was in honor of his parents' heritage. It will make you think about the original song and how PTX always make Upgrades to traditional songs.
If you want to see:"Baby Pentatonix" their "Official" video "That's Christmas To Me" shows 2 pictures of each member as toddlers, including Avi. They do perform both songs in concerts but didn't do a new video with Matt for either song.
Enjoyed your insight and reaction.
Kirstie, in Season Of Love, goes off. It's great, her riffs runs, and her whistle note. Love it.
I have to agree! Seasons of Love is surprising in itself. Mitch sings in his chest voice not his head voice, which he can interchange smoothly and easily. Kirstin does really, really beautiful here. And in Amazing Grace, Kirstin brings it!
Pentatonix is great.😊
While we are listening here to theirs I propose also to listen to Lucy Thomas' version. 🤩 She also has a Mary did you know duet with here sister.
Good morning, yay Pentatonix. Merry Christmas!
Love Pentatonix
Yhe performance is unbelievable, but I keep going back to the source material. Leonard Cohen is a magic man. Every version of this song is wonderful, from Leonard's stripped down effort, to Jeff Buckley, to K. D. Lang's emotive version, are all so moving. Fun Fact: this song was the sign-off for Israeli Armed Forces Radio Radio for many years.
They are amazing. Their best Christmas song however has to be Mary Did You Know. You will be blown away. Merry Christmas
Simply the best harmonic group I've ever heard. Carol of The Bells coming?
simply beautiful
This live version is amazing! I enjoyed your conversation of the video.
We saw them last Wednesday night at the Christmas Concert in DFW, their hometown! 🤗💝
PENTATONIX are the Royal Court of Christmas music!
Scott always does the bass when the bass has a solo
Love seeing reactions to this live one!
Beautiful rendition live.Goose bumps here❤ Much love from Canada❤🇨🇦🙏
There is a new live video of them with Matt as the bass floating around that is amazing. On that video, Kevin amps up the beat boxing. Just amazing!
Finally something alive with passion. Please do videos. My God watching them is so powerful.
They are amazing live too. Incredible ❤
Yes, Scott slips in and out of the bass role when Avi has the lead. Much like Mitch and Kirstin will flip in the higher register. If you want one that is simply a joy to just hear each one distinctly try Gold. Just them sitting there with studio mics and headphones.
Love you guys . . Yes they sound as good or better live ive been so lucky to have seen them twice live. They are Amazing . . . Keep enjoying and Merry Christmas
The official music video was shot in the Mojave desert Where in California is the Mojave desert. It is located in the southeastern California with portions in Nevada Arizona and Utah. It's worth mentioning that The official music video Was not only shot in the desert put it was shot in the summer. There are wearing the clothes that they are to give the impression that Winter time Hallelujah Is frequently mistaken for a Christmas song And it isn't. Prayers for this world From last years Christmas album and the prayer from the Christmas before that Many people Believe those are also Christmas songs but they are not. They just happened to appear On their Christmas albums. I think it was in 2021 the Big song was seasons of love from the Broadway musical/movie RENT. It also is not a Christmas song. The movie is about a year in the life of friends And it starts on Christmas eve. There is a video from a fourth of July special. It is a Kristie song and she nails it. There Christmas album evergreen was nominated for a Grammy Last years holidays around the world Christmas album was also nominated for a Grammy. There is a video called the making of evergreen. Evergreen was there Christmas album in 2022. Invited cameras into the recording of the song and it's really interesting to see See the process that go through Basically from it just been on the list of the songs are gonna do all the way to what the final product is. There are much recent live videos of hallelujah that have That in them. I don't know if This other video is 1That you reacted to but They're rendition of Dance of the sugar plum fairy from The nutcracker by Tchaikovsky1 them their second Grammy. They wanna Grammy for singing a song that has no words using no wordsPeriods Anytime of the year Is time for a Pentatonix Christmas song. Really enjoyed your reaction as I always do
Awesome reaction! Such a talented group! Their newest release of Oh Holy Night is stunning!! Merry Christmas! ♥️🎄♥️
Pentaholics are EXTREMELY loyal and protective of this group!! I didn’t take what you said as a slight to Pentatonix at all. But have been watching and following them since the sing-off and I understand the investment and protectiveness towards them! Just be patient - Pentaholics as a whole are a good group ❤
Next year!
Yes whenever the Bass is actually singing Scott takes over as the Bass. He is a natural Baritone so it is pretty easy for him to fall into the Bass role. They are phenomenal live. I saw them in 2018 and then again this past September, both times they did this song and it was incredible. As far as the video and where they shot it, it looks like some desert in California but I couldn't tell you which one and also I could be completely wrong...lol....great reaction guys.
Thank you! I loved your reaction to Pentatonix live. As to where the original video was filmed, the Moh-HAH-vaa desert is about 50,000 square miles. You could narrow it down somewhat by going to Coyote Dry Lake in California, about 15 miles northeast of Barstow.
Sorry, Moh-HAH-vay desert would be clearer.
Leonard Cohen who wrote Hallelujah has said the greatest rendition he's ever heard of this song was by a Canadian K.D. Lang. You need to do a reaction of the version she did at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic opening ceremonies...it is probably the most emotional performance I've ever witnessed. People in that crowd were stunned and blown away from that performance.
Also a real nice one.
😊❤ I actually knew the 'pop quiz'. I live in NV and there are several places that it could have been. It was driving me crazy so I looked it about 6 months ago!! LOL Luv you guys!! 😊❤❤
I love Penatonix's cover the Leonard Cohen's hit song Hallelujah!! I would love to see your reaction to not only the original version of Hallelujah done by Leonard Cohen, but other covers of his song by Rufus Wainwright and by Jeff Buckley, please and thank you!!
This is great
Another earlier beautiful version of this song is sung by Jeff Buckley if you ever want to take a listen. Loving all the reactions !!
I agree about Kirstie.
And you're not the first one to get choked up a lot of people do.. 😂
the single ear bud each of this song is still amazing
Whenever Avi or Matt sings, Scott takes over on the bass so you were correct when you thought you heard Scott go lower.
You should react to some of their concert videos that fans have posted. Some aren't so good sound wise but quite a few are pretty good! React to Joyful! Joyful! in concert. It's amazing! 💕
Peace
I saw them in concert a few weeks ago. Absolutely amazing show. My favorite that night was Mary Did You Know. Brought tears to my eyes. Very, very talented people.❤
Thank you for sharing this and for your reactions - I am a recent subscriber and have enjoyed your channel. Naturally Pentatonix sings this flawlessly as they do with everything they sing. But there is another version of this song that I think you should react to. It is KD Lang's live version - it was done at some kind of awards event in Canada. Leonard Cohen himself praised her for her performance. She also sang "Crying" with Roy Orbison (he requested her) and then again as a tribute to him after his death. She is a fabulous singer that I think y'all should check out (live), if you have not already. Merry Christmas. God bless you.😅
I originally thought that the original video was shot in Utah but I have since read that it was in California.
Hallelujah is not a Christmas song. But they do an awesome job on the song.
Avi was singing the same range vocally as Scott in his solo too! He also goes very low on the last note!
The official video of "Hallelujah" was shot in the Mojave Desert outside of Barstow, California.
Pure Imagination
Got to Check out Penatonix version of Mary did you know. Another Christmas Song
The music video was shot in the California Mojave Desert
I believe the video was shot at the first Lake bed at Edwards AFB. going from Rosemond Ca. I spent 4 years out there and it's very familiar. Thanks for the Reaction.... Have a very Merry Christmas.
Have you listened to Amazing Grace. A bit late to your channel. From a Pentaholic. Greetings from South Africa
Y’all need to react to Mary did you know pentatonix
What I heard Kirsty say about the location of the original, was the got in a van, and drove 2 hours outside of L.A., turned off into the desert and drove what seemed to be another 2 hours. Then when finished (right at sunset), they had to hurrry and load the equipment, and get back to the main road before dark, because there are not lights out there, and it would be impossible to find their way back in the dark. They barely made it to the road right as complete darkness set in. That is all I know.
Check out K D Lang version of Halleljah at The Lenard Cohen tribute concert
I think her version at the Juno awards is the best.
@@karehelene her voice control is crazy
Mitch slapped live!!! Whew!!!!
The lyrics are unusual ...thanks guys
I believe the video was filmed at Coyote dry lake in California.
KD Lang at the Juno’s. Also check her version of Crying at Roy Orbinson tribute concery
Mojave desert in California during the summer the heat was horrible
Did you see Scott doing the bass while Avi was singing
Putri ariani on hut transmedia live bohemian rhapsody
Canadian Leonard Cohen was raised an Orthodox Jew ( occasional Buddhist monk) who imbued a love of Roman Catholic symbology growing up in Quebec and attending mass with their Irish maid. The song, which includes obvious Old Testament references, utilizes the single word, “Hallelujah,” (praise God) as an exultant chorus. Christmassy ? It’s uplifting in tone BUT it’s also a song about the dark side of humanity and of our most cherished yet abused yearning transcendent love. If there is redemption is it spiritual or sensual ? Story goes Cohen once asked Bob Dylan who covered Hallelujah how long it took to write A Hard Rain’s A Gonna Fall, he said 15 minutes and Hallelujah ? Cohen embarrassed admitted 3 years. He was not being entirely honest either. In fact, he had toiled at Hallelujah for nearly a decade, filling his notebooks with 180 different verses and a rumoured 250 versions of each line.
Official video was shot on a dry lake bed in the Mojave desert in California.
Subbed for more PTX
Did you catch where Avi and Scott swapped the bass harmonies?
Mary did you know!
Check out Champagne and Reefer by the devil makes three originally done by muddy waters
I actually like this live version better than the the other one. Scott does the bass when Avi sings.
All the renditions of Hallelujah are beautiful but check out KD Lang live at a concert for the original artist. This one will blow you away and you will never hear it sound any better than KD’s rendition ❤
Although a lot of Christmas songs were written by Jews I was pretty sure this was not written as a Christmas song. So I asked Google (& everything on Google is true). This is what I found:
Hallelujah began its life with a religious slant, reflecting Cohen's Jewish heritage, with allusions to King David and Bathsheba (“The secret chord that David played”) as well as Samson and Delilah. Later versions were more spiritual, and sometimes sexual.
There was mention in some things on Google that it has been seen as Christmas song but that’s not how it was written.
Utah, for the original, I think. Around Salt Lake, maybe. The salt plains.
Please react to a christmas hallelujah by cassandra & callahan. beautiful song about the birth of jesus, which is what christmas is all about. Please and thank you🙏
Please react to "Mary dId you know" ESSENTIAL CHRISTMAS SONG AND SO POWERFUL!
Mojave DESERT - California
You should react to “If Only” by Hiss River Collab and
Pick one of their "upgraded" traditional christmas songs.
React to John Mayer- slow dancing in a burning room
Hallellujah by leonard Cohen isn't a christmas song.
Dallas
Check out pentatonix version of shallow from a star is born by Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga
I think Carrie Underwood sings Christmas like an angel.
You all should do Florida Georgia line cruise remix with Nelly or this is how we roll remix with Jason derulo
Lucy Thomas has a great cover of this song, Lucy went from RUclips singer to Broadway in 2024
Not a christmas song this is one of the best anti-war songs ever written.
Mojave Desert.
Scott covers bass while Avi sings.
Do aha live Singapore to get a MITch slap
Hallelujah isn’t a Christmas song.
Much prefer this version to the current version with Matt. This whole song builds to that solo by Mitch and the angelic note he breaks in on. Matt tries a little to hard to make his verse different from Avi's and creates an anticlimax in the 2nd verse. It's worth hearing the current version but his is by far the superior model.
First off, this is not Christmas music. Secondly, listen to a version of the song written by Leonard Cohen to get a clue as to the real nature of this song: ruclips.net/video/M6mU0wMEmbQ/видео.htmlsi=TPHxQAkUjVlQIhDO
And read some of his poetry, he's incredible ❤
