    Avi Kaplan (with beard and beanie and pronounced Aahh Vee) was the original the basso profundo and majored in opera. Its all Avi accept when he sings his solo. Scott Hoying maintains the lower register while Avi sings. Avi is my all time fav. He left the band in mid-late 2017 and helped them find his replacement Matt Sallee. Avi has a solo career now and is doing his thing. They are each amazingly talented, unique and creative. When they come together its heavenly. Not of this world. Watch also the liver version on the Christmas Special 2016 ruclips.net/video/haFHrfmfHbc/видео.html You will not believe your ears. Kevin Olusola (beat boxer extraordinaire) is a tenor and does sing some but is primarily the beatboxer. He plays the cello too and coined the phrase "cello boxer" because he does both simultaneously. The trio, Scott Hoying (blond baritone), Kirsten Maldonado (mezzo soprano) and Mitch Grassi(in the hat and super tenor) were close friends and grew up together in Texas. Great reaction though we did lose the sound a couple of times. Hope to see you do more PTX. They won 3 Grammy awards. Their first was Daft Punk (medley). Please watch that one. It is way different and still super amazing. They make everything their own. Thanks!

    Kevin the beatboxer is a tenor and sings when he’s not using his mouth to beatbox. They do an a cappella version of Bohemian Rhapsody that you need to hear and their version of Can you Feel the Love Tonight.

    This is one of the greatest songs ever written, but it's not even close to being a religious song. The songwriter, Leonard Cohen, was an Atheist Jew. This is a song about lost love, lust, sex, heartbreak, loneliness and isolation that uses Biblical references to tell the story. If you've ever actually listened to the lyrics it should be clear that it is not religious at all, and is in fact just the opposite. Over the years, Cohen wrote more than 80 verses to the song and always encouraged artists covering it to choose the verses they felt best fit the song as they wanted to sing it. The lyrics heard here are from Cohen's actual original version.

    Superman curl 😂😂 love it. That’s Scott! My personal favorite of the group, so glad you recognized his belting there he KILLS IT at the end. He also does bass when the bass is singing if you listen for it you can really hear it in this one, he does amazing!

    Also notice that Scott covers the bass line while Avi is doing his solo. He has an amazing five octave range for a natural baritone but he isn't Avi - of course, there really is only one Avi Kaplan...glad that when he left the group he continued (and continues) to release music on his own that shows thatstunning vocal ability. Thanks!

    The bass is Avi, white Jesus with the beanie! But when he sings, Scott, the first guy, a baritone, does bass for him, then they switch back! Kevin can sing too, but he hardly does as the beat boxer. All the members have their own channels where they do solo work aside from Pentatonix. Check out Kevin Olusola, "Sign Of The Times" or "Down", and for Pentatonix, check out their original song, "Cracked", or their The Evolution of Ariana Grande!!!

    We all know why pausing is needed, and most of us are just fine with it. It's a great idea to listen again without interruptions to really appreciate the flow. Kevin the beatboxer will sing, but a lot of the time he's working like mad doing the incredible sounds. When you first hear his voice, there's a surprise in store. Too bad there was some glitch with the sound a couple of times. And that was a pretty abrupt end. But looking forward to more of your reactions.

    Thanks for reacting to this amazing Pentatonix cover. The ear buds made a world of difference, huh? That's why fans usually suggest that reactors wear ear buds or headphones. Otherwise, a lot is missed. Kevin, the awesome beatboxer, sings tenor. He also plays multiple instruments, writes and arranges music. He has written some of my favorite Pentatonix originals. He plays cello in some Pentatonix songs. He has his own RUclips channel. Check it out.

    He does sing, however his beatboxing skills are masterful! He plays several musical instruments. The new guy is Matt, he's doing great! Avi, who was with Pentatonix previously has bowed out of Pentatonix to embark on a new journey of his own and enjoy more time with family.

    Kevin Olusola does most of the "percussion", sings some tenor backup, some tenor solos and plays cello sometimes including celloboxing.
    This song is a very gut feel kind of song, so it has very simple beatboxing. Try "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Daft Punk" and "Love Again" for more complex beatboxing from Kevin.
    He has also been co-author on a number of songs. He plays sax also, but not on Pentatonix. See his solo work, sometimes called KOvers.

      This was an urban legend that has actually never been confirmed, and considering he passed away just a couple of days after Pentatonix's version was released, it seems very unlikely he ever even heard it. I'd like to think he would have been proud of this version, though.

      @megandelynn6114 3 года назад

      Actually he did hear it after it was recorded. According to Scott H. PTX wanted to change some lyrics since it was going on their Christmas album but Cohen discussed it with them saying he'd prefer they didn't change the lyrics & was sent the finished version before it was released, which is when he said something to them about it being a favorite. I don't know if PTX has ever released exactly what was said so I won't make up a quote here but the rest is on an article with Scott from the Dallas news. As someone who is very ill, I can tell you that doesn't mean we can do nothing.

    I start every video I watch with a “Like” because I respect the reactor’s time put in to do the reaction. But in truth that is the only reason I’ll actually “Like” this reaction. I am all for interrupting the video bur for me the number of stops ruined the flow of the entire reaction. I listen to a lot of reactors and those who can interject their commentary in a way that allows the listener to experience a continuity or flow to the reaction seem the popular to me. The danger, as I see it, is that I now know you likely have this many interruptions in all your reactions so unfortunately I won’t be looking at any of your other reactions including Pentatonix. This is not a criticism, it’s your channel and you can do with it what you want but if you are looking for new subscribers you may want to consider cutting down the number of your interruptions, at least, where I am concerned.
