    There are several theories about what this song means. The songwriter, Robin Pecknold, from the original artists (Fleet Foxes) has said he didn't intend for it to have a lot of meaning, just a nice gentle choral piece to start their 2008 album. But when he wrote it he was thinking about many of his childhood friends whose friendship he lost when they got involved with drugs and crime. He was visualizing himself walking through the snow and his friends one by one losing their childhood innocence and falling behind.

    I imagine the rest of them stumbling through while Kevin looks on indulgently at his uncoordinated friends! The original Fleet Foxes song has a very trippy video online if you want to explore the song a little more. I love that you have so thoroughly accepted Pentatonix and continue to feature them. Let us know about your concert experience! Peace …

    Hiya! Just wanted to say, I saw Pentatonix live in London in May and they performed this one live absolutely perfectly! Apparently it was Avi who struggled most with the choreography and Matt, who had to learn it when he joined in 2017 picked it up pretty quickly. The 'trio' - Scott, Mitch and Kirstie had the most difficult choreo for this. It sounds amazing live. It does sound like a very sweet, light song but if you actulally listen to the original lyrics it's quite dark! 😁

  • @carmengibson

    This is right up there with "Aha!" as a candidate for the most peculiar song Pentatonix sings. It seems to be a cheerful little song about decapitation. My guess is that they do it specifically for the cool hand choreography.
    I've seen a video of them practicing the hand choreography, but I don't remember where; I'm just certain that it took a LOT of practice.

In fact there is a video of a show where it was messed up so they had to skip the song and come back to it later in the show. But they do the motions live and you hear that, too, and their voices live of course!

    Kevin was probably saying "come on you slouches, get it together, this is nothing!"
    Also, when you were talking about Avi, it struck me for the first time that Matt, when he joined the group, had to learn their entire back catalog and get all Avi's parts down pat. Now that's having some big shoes to fill! 🙀

    • @PtxXtp

      The group has said that Matt came in knowing all of Avi's bass lines from the start.

    • @margretrosenberg420
      @margretrosenberg420 Год назад +6

      Also, I've never heard Matt sing Avi's arrangement for the second verse of "Hallelujah." The first performances of "Hallelujah" once Matt was in the band actually had Scott singing the second verse as well as the first. Matt didn't perform "Hallelujah" with them until he had an arrangement written specifically for him, and that arrangement has changed as Matt's range has increased.
      This isn't true of all the songs that they still perform that originally had Avi - "Bohemian Rhapsody" seems to be the same, for instance - but I strongly suspect that there are other songs where they've deliberately changed the arrangement to make better use of Matt's unique abilities.

    Someone probably already mentioned this but since you guessed it I want to make sure you know that Scott once said learning the choreography of the songs was the hardest part for him. I may have that wrong but I kind of remember after hearing him say that they rehearsed a dance routine thing he kept getting wrong. He was adorable! They are all adorable! This song had to have taken much practice although as a child many, many years ago we use to do songs and poems to different hand claps, etc. Once you got the rhythm it just happened. Muscle memory I suppose. It really was fun. PTX looks to be having fun unless you look real close and see the concentration. Great reaction.

    The use of "hymnal" in the title by the original artists was just to indicate the genre, I guess so people people wouldn't be surprised since this wasn't their typical style. Just like not all Christmas/religious songs are hymns, not all hymns are religious music. Still it's on one of their 1st Christmas albums since it's a winter song & so pretty. Honestly you could put this on repeat & use it to fall asleep to. 😍

    As a drummer who sang back up this amount of coordination takes practice. I had to use both arms, hands and feet and then added singing, and I had to remember to breathe at the right time. I had to develop a place in my brain in order to do both. I am not as naturally talented as they are so I am not sure if this is easier for them or not. It would be hard to compare. They are absolute unicorns but even unicorns have to practice some.

    Not a Christmas song but disguised as one on their Christmas album. The lyrics are actually quite morbid if you listen. Also don’t go by Scott to determine when something was made go by Mitch. He’s had multiple changing hairstyles and many of us can pinpoint the year by looking at him. Sometimes he even changes his look throughout the year so we can even tell you if it was the first half or 2nd half of a specific year. His beard here and slightly angled bangs mean 2014. His full emo side bangs and clean shaven face are 2015 when sing video was recorded. Color it blonde or purple and you have 2016 up until July when he shaved it completely bald.

    They filmed an instruction video for others to be able to perform this.

    Not necessarily around the time of SING, Scott wore that flannel a bunch of times (it says Flawless on the back because that’s what Beyoncé called them). Go more by Mitch and Kirstie’s hair. Very different from the SING video.

    It was Scott who had the hardest time.

    👉👉👉FOR YOUR INFORMATION Avi messed up the MOST! But nothing tragic. Avi was/is known for not liking choreograph. Scott, Kirstie and Mitch came up with that choreo!!

    One of my favourites of Pentatonix. Why do you talk about messing up so often. Do you have any bad experiences with clapping or dancing? (Just kidding.) I like to listen to the song while cleaning but enjoy it much more without cleaning. (Kidding again.) Enough kidding now. I enjoyed how much you liked the song. Have a nice evening.
