I'm a music teacher and singer, and I really just want to bring attention to how much their voices have matured and improved since the group came together. They have only gotten better musically and they could have rested on laurels they rightfully earned by winning the Sing Off. Even the health of their speaking voices tells you how they have organically gotten better individually and as an ensemble. Truly a once in a lifetime group
I love this bit. They do so many "evolution" videos...it's nice to have an evolution of PTX. I love how "conversational" they are, as if they are just talking to us individually. No pretense.
As I see more and more snippets of the Hollywood Bowl 2022 show, I realize how wonderful that experience must have been for those in audience, and I am frankly overcome with envy.
@@Ptxlive I don’t know!!! 😭 I remember seeing them selling tickets on IG and thought I wouldn’t have anyone to go with and then I forgot about it lol crying
@@shannonslack4448 and I guess they don't know that Avi found Matt and asked if joining PTX would be something he would be interested in doing...I would've loved to have seen his face
@@camillep6873 As far as I can gather, this is an internet myth. Avi had nothing to do with the recruiting or selection of Matt. It was Ben Bram and the group's management who set up dozens of blind auditions (without the candidates knowing who they were auditioning for), and Matt was one of the short list who were then invited to sing for and with the group in LA. He showed up knowing all the bass parts from all their songs! As far as I know, I'm quoting Matt, and other comments from the group, correctly on all that. Other group historians, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. PTX were always expert at playing the social media game; if Avi had actually given his blessing to Matt, I have absolutely no doubt they would have arranged another Facebook "opportunity" to ease the way for saddened fans to accept "the new guy".
If you have watched the sing off (or re-watched all of their performances as often as I have) seeing them "breaking the record" or Mitch hitting that solo high note gets VERY nostalgic!
I KNEW they began the evolution video with Gregorian chants! I'm so impressed that they began with that because I recall that is the first music ever in history from music appreciation class I took in college. And it is no wonder Kevin was the one who mentioned it with his journey in classical. They SLAY anything they sing
I keep coming back to this one. Not only for all the songs, but they were so relaxed and on top form just having way too much fun together on stage. lovely
Imagine if in this evolutuon avi came and then after the 2017's song he tap matt's shoulder and then matt continue the bass part. People will scream like crazy
Have to be one of the most talented group of people I have ever seen. To work like this together a capella , is just something to appreciate. Might be the musician speaking from me , but still ❤
Omg seeing them sing all their past songs is just so amazing hear how good they are. And the fact that you can tell THEY were having fun is so much better
they're like a Jazz band, Matt and Kevin are Rhythm section, Bass and Drums. Then Mitch is the saxes, Scott is the trombones, and Kirstin is the trumpets.
High 5 to Matt who han to learn their songs. And in Silent night he started to show us what he can do, and then he shines in "kiss from a rose" and "O Holy night" . They are a exceptional group that spread joy and love. A true Pentaholic. Greetings from South Africa. O sorry, just came across this channel
This was so nostalgic! Every year I rewatch their Sing Off videos - their voices were great then, the best - but now? Their voices are fabulous! Amazing! It’s wonderful to have watched their voices mature, grow, strengthen, develop and shine! I truly love them. Was there a part 2 with Matt’s input? I love his first Christmas song - Deck The Halls - and his New RukesxAre You That Somebody. Does anyone have that?
Oh my gosh…I have watched so many songs…repeatedly, from The Sing Off….you have grown sooooo much! They were amazing then, but you are all on another level now! I’m so glad you took the opportunity to apply, and had the courage to go
I got my first album from these guys on a rack in Walmart for free. I was blown away that they weren’t charging for that gold. Now I know why. It sold itself. 🤑🔥🔥
it wasn't even a week but then their RUclips channel TOOK OFF and THEN came Daft Punk so they really did this ALL themselves. Such stellar musicians and vocalists AND super nice people
The only thing about this I don't like is how still the audience is like I cannot imagine how excited I would be to be there in front of them singing their evolution of pentatonix
I think a lot of them really couldn't believe what they were hearing and witnessing, I mean NO instruments and filling that space with their wall of sound, it is mind-boggling
Hearing about how their prize record deal was dropped a week in, I wonder if these record companies are honoring any of their commitments from these contests? Does anyone know?
No clue. They were not just dropped, they were payed a kill fee for the contract. But still... Honestly, I'm so glad they were dropped because a lukewarm standard company doing basic marketing would never had gotten Pentatonix out in the way they themselves did. They were basically pioneers in using social media and youtube to market music, and that kind of meduim is perfect for a capella since you kind of have to see it to belive it. AND they got out of a reality tv deal and got a much better one later.
Considering how neither side mentions each other, especially not in monetized content, it's likely part of the contract. Avi has been trying to make his name separate from them and it seems like a quite common thing to have in contracts.
@@oliviamurphy9482 they aren't the kind of people, from what we've all seen, that would end a friendship over something like this, they completely understood why Avi had to leave
@@camillep6873 It isn't that. Some people say there are more complex reasons for Avi's departure than just him missing his family. And apparently tensions had been a little high before he left. I honestly don't know what transpired but I know for sure that they are not all friends with him anymore. They have kept this all under wraps very well though, which I commend them for!
@@oliviamurphy9482 I find that very hard to believe knowing what kind of people they are. His mom was very ill, again. We'll see if he's included at the Hollywood Walk of Fame induction ceremony
I mostly agree. They are definitely much better vocalist now, so much more mature and consistent. Their arrangements through the years have definitely become more tame and more predictable. With the exception of a few gems along the way :)
I can see they're coming to Europe, but how, oh HOW does Kirstin handle it?? With the baby... I'd like to go see them live sooo much; Austria is the closest.
Hmm. I feel like they said “let’s put out a couch as we talk about our evolution and see what happens!” They did an excellent job showing their progression through the sing off. But they’ve done way more after that! They’re better at doing evolution of other people than they are of themselves. I was disappointed.
Kirstin: “some people are like why do we have a couch out here”😏
Scott: “it’s because we’re humbled”😇
Mitch: “it’s because we’re TIRED “👹

I'm going for the holidays around the world show in december!!! So excited
Matt be like “Bitch I wasn’t here but I’m gonna smile”
Smile and wave, boys. Smile and wave...
I really don't understand why some folks are still so salty over the change up. I mean both PTX and Avi are successful and happy.

@@hernameispekka_Rebecca And he has the *best* smile. He really made them "Happy Now". Happy penguin that he is! He's been so good for them.
Can we all just stop and appreciate that this is all LIVE!
Seeing them in person is on my bucket list!
they are touring in America this November and December. and they resume the European tour next year!
If you have watched the sing off (or re-watched all of their performances as often as I have) seeing them "breaking the record" or Mitch hitting that solo high note gets VERY nostalgic!
absolutely agree!
oh damn, this made me realize matt's been with them almost as long as avi was!
here's to many more ♥
Mitch won't ever stop impressing mw.
FRRR! He’s a star
Holy moly ... as someone who first heard Pentatonix back on The Sing-Off, hearing them sing these again *STILL* gives me goosebumps. 🙂
04:49 Mitch never fails to amaze me! His voice is so beautiful and unique! His movement at 04:52 was different to the original
I’d give them all a big hug. They seem like a very huggy bunch. I like that in my musical geniuses. 😊
They should make their cover of Telephone into a full-blown single.
I KNEW they began the evolution video with Gregorian chants! I'm so impressed that they began with that because I recall that is the first music ever in history from music appreciation class I took in college. And it is no wonder Kevin was the one who mentioned it with his journey in classical. They SLAY anything they sing
I feel so lucky to have followed them along their journey since the sing-off days 😀
04:52 I love the way Mitch does this “lara lara” part. It’s different from the original they did but better 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I keep coming back to this one. Not only for all the songs, but they were so relaxed and on top form just having way too much fun together on stage. lovely
My husband and I watched you win on The Sing-off….we were rooting for you throughout the show! Fantastic then, more fantastical now!!!!!!!

vocal flips ❤❤❤

We fell in love with them on The Sing Off! And they just keep being awesome!
Imagine being the record company exec who decided to drop Pentatonix
You know, they probably have done better than they ever would have with the record label!
Dog days are over is awesome, im crying glad that you guys bring it in memory🎉
they're like a Jazz band, Matt and Kevin are Rhythm section, Bass and Drums. Then Mitch is the saxes, Scott is the trombones, and Kirstin is the trumpets.
OH MY GOD THESE ALL THE SONGS THEY DID ON SING OFF!! i love their video killed the star 😭😭
1:06 this brings so much nostalgia! When Mitch starts the intro for telephone I get goosebumps

They do sound fabulous! 😀 I don’t have a part 2 unfortunately 🧐 not sure what came after. Sorry :( ❤️
OMG! You guys never fail to amaze! How do you do that kind of sound ...!! Incredible guys..!
Saw them in Cincinnati, were fantastic!
OMG chills..didn't hear these Sing off renditions for ages
That record label's gotta be ABSOLUTELY KICKING THEMSELVES
Pentatonix is releasing new Christmas music today. How exciting!!!
Love pentatonix from India 🇮🇳 ❤
Oh my gosh…I have watched so many songs…repeatedly, from The Sing Off….you have grown sooooo much! They were amazing then, but you are all on another level now! I’m so glad you took the opportunity to apply, and had the courage to go
Yes! I agree! They have vocally matured SO MUCH! Almost not the same voices as 11 years ago! 😮 They were great then, but they’re AMAZING now!
Yesss! Sing Off throw back! Love it ❤
I got my first album from these guys on a rack in Walmart for free. I was blown away that they weren’t charging for that gold. Now I know why. It sold itself. 🤑🔥🔥
Other singers or groups are amazing and really talented.....they are literally perfect
The way I would have gone feral for the nostalgia if I had been there
OMG!!! THIS IS SO EPIC!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so much for sharing! They sound so good now and effortless 🤯🤯🤯
Just simply amazing
So funny, and so perfectly in tune. PTX rocks!!!
Love it, just keeps getting better.
tnks!! 😃😃A classic, yet always fresh and new!🥰🥰🥰
これはヤバ過ぎでしょ！！
涙が出てくるほど素晴らしい❤
still have goosebumps
J aime quand ils chantent tous ensemble
Continuer pour mon plaisir bonne année à tous
Somebody gave me chills🥺 4:38
I love Pentatonix songs
I really need to go see them live
They are truly impressive, talent given by God... so they only need to dedicate that talent to the giver of life... Jehovah of hosts
I didn't know the record label dropped them. That's so cold.
it wasn't even a week but then their RUclips channel TOOK OFF and THEN came Daft Punk so they really did this ALL themselves. Such stellar musicians and vocalists AND super nice people
😂😂😂😂Matt I really needed a haircut then. I love Matt and his humor.
Nostalgia.😢
♥♥♥ I don't care that I'm in my 40s!!!
The only thing about this I don't like is how still the audience is like I cannot imagine how excited I would be to be there in front of them singing their evolution of pentatonix
They're too busy filming it on their phones.
Like srsly😂
I would faint
I think a lot of them really couldn't believe what they were hearing and witnessing, I mean NO instruments and filling that space with their wall of sound, it is mind-boggling
Just got over-ear headphones. Damn, Matt!
Why am i emotional :"""
sixth member of Pentatonix: lamp
It's a stand in for Ben Bram. 😃
Goshhhhhhh
Me:*screams*
Friend: 'Why did you scream..." (looks over shoulder) "Oh, give me one of your earpieces I wanna listen too"
Come to Canada please!!!!!
I love that 7:03 moment 🤣🤣🤣
2:30Scott just hit the high note
Those choices
Matt, Kevin😌🔥🔥
Profanacja...
Gad, I’m old. Why look at your phone recording when this miracle of sound is before your eyes live?
Would really love to see a soloist mitch
Mitch does solo work. His performance of Billie Eilish's Power is amazing -- on a rooftop during Covid. He also solos as his alter ego, Messer. 🙂
“An I phone 0” OMG IM DEAD🤣
Was wondering how they rehearsed. They good, really good
I just now nknow that the label dropped them right after winning The Sing-Off lol
Is the whole live stream still available somewhere? I never saw it when it happened 😢
MITCH IS SO CUTE 4:00
3:09 best part
what name Song?
Where can someone watch this entire live stream?
They need to re record the songs from the sing-off. Video Killed the Radio Star got me 😭😭😭
Thank you for the good music! Can you sing a bit more of jazz? Please!!!
Miss your commentary

Don't know for sure, but the reason the Sing Off went on hiatus for a year was to work out this issue with Sony.
PART 2??
Yes! I was hoping for a Part2 - surely they didn’t end it there? 😮
@@caroleceres they did
ET doesn’t sound the same without Avi’s overtone
I’m sure you’ll live 🙂
Come on Matt bringing out the low B’s in Dog Days
Yes! He can hit those notes so much better when he is sat still and not jumping around stage
why can't they mention avi at least once? i wonder 🤔
Considering how neither side mentions each other, especially not in monetized content, it's likely part of the contract. Avi has been trying to make his name separate from them and it seems like a quite common thing to have in contracts.

It's part of their "Evolution of Music" 🙂
Would be nice if they acknowledged Avi’s contribution!
Pretty sure that he has a legal gag on them, they’re literally not allowed to mention him in relation to pentatonix
They’ve become better singers but their earlier arrangements were much better than their latter arrangements
