A duet with Matt & Mitch is not the first thing I'd think of, but boy howdy! they blend so well. I've noticed lately how well the lower registers of all the voices have matured into sweet, sweet tones. And Kevin ain't just a beatbox and a cello. He's got some pretty darn good pipes, too. And as always the unsung (pun intended) hero is their arranger, whose name escapes me.
Great reaction! Have we ever heard Matt and Mitch sing in tandem as much as they did in this song? What an incredible blend!! Also, Mitch and Kirsten singing in their lower registers was amazing as well! I loved it!! :)
Love hearing Scott take the bass during Matt taking lead. Mitch and Matt harmonizing and Scott and Kirstie as well are fantastic. Kevin took a bit of a back seat this time out. Love this song and them.
Agree with everything you said except the part about Kevin taking a back seat. True, there was no beatboxing or a solo part for him, BUT in my opinion, there is no 5 part harmony without him. I tend to listen to a PTX song a minimum of 6x because each listen after hearing the whole song through, I focus on a particular member the whole way through the song. It allows me to appreciate their individual contributions to the song, especially when it is a song like this with no beatboxing. I feel Kevin's contribution to beatboxless (lol new word?🤔) songs are so underrated. He rounds out their harmonies and the songs simply would not sound the same without him. 😊💞
we are by far the best acapella group ever the harmonizing they're out of this world love them so is my wife we listen to them all the time they are the best acapella group
Yes I agree they have taken it to a whole new stratosphere they are the best singing group ever but I've heard my wife loves them and so do I they are by far the best acapella group around and they do not need any instruments
I was so looking forward to your reaction to this song. As you mentioned, what else can be said about PTX that hasn't already been expressed? This was hauntingly beautiful and they do such a great job of not only giving us an audio ear candy experience, but also their deliberate visuals complimenting their voices to convey their interpretation of this song. From the simple black background to themselves in their own background walking in circles like the lyrics, to panning to a close up of Mitch singing "look right through me" as we see him look dead at us through our souls (or so it seems) to the walking backwards while singing the "mad world" chorus in different scales until uniting at the end with a wall of sound. Thanks for another great diagrossting (😜) reaction. Can you add to your list a reaction to Scott and Mario Jose doing a cover of LP's "Lost on You". How Scott thought to sing that song over a Hans Zimmer track (think from the movie Inception) was just pure genius and blew my mind. It is literally something I listen to once a day. Thanks in advance. Take care and stay safe. 💞 😊
Couldn't help but notice you noticing Kirstin. She has grown from a really cute, adorable young lady into an absolutely gorgeous grown woman. As such, I've got a request for a reaction - please consider reacting to her original video of "Naked". It's just her as a single performer, not Pentatonix.
Another reactor described Matt’s voice as sounding like a cello. If Matt did a portion with Kevin playing cello on some future release sound fantastic? Your usual excellent reaction.
You sir have it exactly right about "mastered the scale" as their songs are all based on 5 note pentatonic scales, the resulting in their ingenious group name! I love your reactions!
I love your videos. Love. And this song was one of my favorites when it originally came out in the early 80s, done by Tears for Fears. I was excited when I found out PTX covered it, and I was NOT disappointed.
Was waiting I knew you would give us your reaction love it one of my new favorites from this group but I say that after every new release lol glad you made it home safely
I love this channel sometimes other reactors do Pentatonix reactions just for the views I think you do it for the love of the music and give a balanced review of all of you reactions Pentatonix or not, very genuine person.
disgrosting! 😂 I like that word! I really like the song even if it did make me cry the first time I listened to it. I was happy this time though because I was staring at your unicorn poster to keep me on the edge of laughing instead of crying. Thanks for the Unicorn! And thank you very much for the reaction. I like the way you are so animated with the faces you make and the words come up with. It makes it very enjoyable. I hope everything is good with you and yours in this Mad World of 2020.
Another great reaction! The harmonics are brilliant. Loved it!! Thank you for your great insights and your facial expressions make my day.. PS - I love it when you back things up.
You should react to them trying to sing 100 songs in 10 minutes. They were on FBE RUclips channel (REACT/REPLAY) and asked to try this challenge. It's silly and fun but also impressive.
That is a fun video. The part that always gets me is the collective brain fart they have on number 60. Scott and Kevin look blankly at each other while Matt looks blankly at Kirstin who looks blankly at Mitch who looks blankly at the card. Even after they got the name of the song right, it took a while for it to click. How quickly they forget. :)
Well i must say, at least she is legal age for you to make the headshake this time. Yes. I've been with you for a minute or maybe two, Gotta love you though!!!!
I see from vids posted, you made a good start, but so many ptx tracks your sleeping on, Mary did you know, come along, shallow, daft punk, dance of the sugar plum fairy, Jolene ( 3 Grammy's for those 3 ) sing, gold, your a mean one Mr Grinch and so many more
Ok giving you benefit of doubt lol I mean it is your channel, I'm on another phone, slowly scrolling down videos list for ptx, obviously mad world lol happy now, the Wizard of ahhs w toderick, Evo of Rihanna, cologne, dreams, break my heart, when the party's over, blinding lights, home, Evo of music, star wars tribute, cheerleader, shallow, rather be, problem, god only knows, can't hold us, thrift shop, your a mean one Mt Grinch, Havana, come along, aha, little drummer boy, radioactive, run to you, say something, gold, Mary did you know, imagine, la la latch, hallelujah, daft punk, new rules, the sound of silence, ok I was partly wrong because you kept changing how you framed your titles I missed some, but you definitely haven't done bohemian rhapsody, sing, Jolene w dolly parton, and dance of the sugar plum fairy, I'm subbing
Pentatonix has a new release and I think it's one you'll be interested in. 'Amazing Grace, My Chains are gone.' It just dropped in the last 24 hrs. ruclips.net/video/Obp-9BEZe1c/видео.html
There's only one thing I don't like about this song. There's no beatboxing in this one, so why didn't Kevin get to sing some? Other than that, I love it!
Kevin sang through the whole song - it's the only way they could build those complicated 5 part chords in the first chorus - all those 6's and hanging 9s. They feel so full because in a normal PTX song, they have to drop parts of the chord (usually the 5th) so they can add those color tones - Kevin's on the beat so there's only 4 voiced notes, three if they are around a lead line. They couldnt keep the round going without him either. He just didn't get a solo. :(
Matt + Mitch = Match! And they certainly are a perfect match in this amazing song. Oh Scott Oh Scott Oh Scott Oh Scott Oh Scott!!!!!
Matt had me hearing the perfect cello under that beginning. Relaxed yet amazingly tight harmonies.
Kirstie killed it here at the end. I just can't get enough of them. Love your reaction as usual.
OK. So how can anyone find the proper words to describe how perfect this song was? 🤩🤩
Right, we need more words that mean awesome, amazing, perfect, etc. :)
e x c e l l e n c e
i love Kevin's sick beat boxing skills but i also love it when he gets to sing, making them a true 5 part harmony!
Love how much you respect their talent! We all need more Matt & Mitch duets in our lives! Stunning!
Matt + Mitch is a Match made in heaven!

Syds eyes when the bass kicked in! This song gave me tears 😭

Matt's voice is magnificent.
Good morning bud..Good morning PTX fam
Evening Sean !

@@dianad3080 Even when he beatboxes they sound like more than 5 voices. Every tune demands re-listening multiple times. They totally gobsmack me.
You rewind as much as you want. They are perfection.
Did you notice after mad world the shadows were moving backwards
Between PTX and Home Free.... They Both have taken the Acapella sound to A Whole New Stratosphere... Just Sayin
And on any given day it's a coin toss as to which I like the most. They're both so great at two different types of a capella excellence.
@@BillB23 they are the best acapella group ever I love every one of their songs and so is my wife they are by far the best 💕
we are by far the best acapella group ever the harmonizing they're out of this world love them so is my wife we listen to them all the time they are the best acapella group

Can't be salty if you wanna hear it again! Also, loved your facial reaction when Kirstin sang. This was a good thing to wake up to. Thank you.
Thanks for setting us straight. Pentatonix is has mastered the scale. Love your words, sir. They are angels. I never tire of listening. Thank you.
I love the Matt and Mitch harmonizing
Dark, lush, luminous, haunting.

Never really liked this song until I heard Adam Lambert sing it. Figured no one could ever do it better than him...I was wrong! 😂
Still gives me chills - and yes, you pause good ^-^ Gotta love that grin ^-^
Yeah, his grin and eyes were killin me in this one, lol
I wonder how hard it was for Matt to not smile! I think it's the only video where he isn't.
I love his grin so much!! 😊😏
I've said the same thing Amy - he must have been pinching his own leg or something haha...
The original is gut wrenchingly beautiful, also. This cover is amazing in its own right. Wow!
This song rips my heart out.
Yes, another amazing video. LOL @ "be salty, be very salty" and the grin! I love when you rewind for the greatness!
When I say...I CACKLED 🤣🤣🤣
Another reactor described Matt’s voice as sounding like a cello. If Matt did a portion with Kevin playing cello on some future release sound fantastic? Your usual excellent reaction.
Literally been waiting for your reaction more than anyone else’s. Also, I have no problem with your rewinds cuz I do it all the time myself.
Nothing wrong with rewinding it to check out a good part of it again.
Hahaha I love your reactions so much!
I love the faces you make and I love when you rewind.
And I’ve adapted the word DISGROSSTING!! Lol
absolutely #Pentastic
Oh pentastic! I heard another reactor start that haha! Yeah, we'll have to keep that going ❤️
Great reaction, Syd! ...and with Kevin singing we enjoy a full five-part harmony..love it!
You sir have it exactly right about "mastered the scale" as their songs are all based on 5 note pentatonic scales, the resulting in their ingenious group name! I love your reactions!
Luxurious, dark, luminous, haunting.
I love your videos. Love. And this song was one of my favorites when it originally came out in the early 80s, done by Tears for Fears. I was excited when I found out PTX covered it, and I was NOT disappointed.
I was looking forward to your reaction to "Mad World" and it was worth the wait. Thank you. They are amazing.
You have the best Pentatonix (and Superfruit) reactions! Thank you.
Those harmonies are unbeatable! Thanks for posting.
2:36 my heart dropped out of my ass oh my goD scared the shit out of me 😭😭
Was waiting I knew you would give us your reaction love it one of my new favorites from this group but I say that after every new release lol glad you made it home safely
Yes!! I was waiting for you out of all the reactors to do this one. Worth the wait ❤️
I love this channel sometimes other reactors do Pentatonix reactions just for the views I think you do it for the love of the music and give a balanced review of all of you reactions Pentatonix or not, very genuine person.
Another beautiful rendition, another clever arrangement, another timely makes-you-think song. 🤗

Love the reaction as always like highlight of matt he has become great
I love and respect your reactions and comments! Love watching your face!! 💜💜💜 love your respect for music thank you.

“Be salty” 🤣🤣🤣 mood
Keep on that rewind Mister! Saves me doin' it :) :) Loved your reaction and breakdown. Thank you
just subscribed to your channel. You are in the top five of all reactors and I've seen hundreds. Keep up the great work!!
Great reaction. Find this so smooth and haunting.
So agree. Sensational!
Oh I Hope you have a great day!
I absolutely LOVE your reactions! Talk to the “salties”!! Lol
Your commentary is also very poignant. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you
You have to check out Amazing Grace by Pentatonix.. You will be AMAZED....
You might like UNLEASH THE ARCHERS - Awakening
Love your input once again. If you have the chance to review the audio of their rendition of "Somewhere over the rainbow" I would love that.
can you react to scott hoying and mario jose lost on you. superfruit they sing the promise, goodbye from lonely, future friends,
Thanks Drama -- great reaction!
Can't wait to see you react to "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" ;)
You’ve said it all!

Why are you not reacting some voice play?
Dont you like voiceplay?

You paused good no worries! 😊
Pentatonix dang auto correct lol
Is it just me or does it look like Kirstie had a face lift in this video? (I know she didnt obviously, it just looks like it)
5 Singer and they are not as good as Gary Jules
Why,, this is the type o stuff a non musical mind may like. I play instruments, so this is crap.
