This song came out about 2 years after my sister passed. It completely captures that pang of guilt for enjoying things she can't anymore... I listen to this and it feels like permission to keep living for us both.
Being a widow myself, and all the people who have lost loved ones, we often feel this way. Am I allowed to be happy, have fun, laugh, live? I know it comes at a different place in the process for everyone, but when you ask, the answer is yes.
Almost all Pentatonix originals were co-written by one or more group members, and they also have outside songwriters / producers who co-write. Then the songs are arranged by the whole group. This song was written by Scott, Kirstie, Kevin and six other people.
Great reaction! You were spot on when it came to Mitch under the sheet that he was being smothered by the expectations that others had of him. So when he threw the sheet off, he was saying no more I’m gonna be me. There’s a great song off of this album also called. NEVER GONNA CRY AGAIN it’s audio visualizer but it’s a great song with a great message. Basically, Mitch is saying how he changed himself to please others. And once he decided to step away from that image, or persona that he portrayed, he became a happier person. It’s awesome to hear about your relationship with your wife. You see those kind of relationships so seldom. I myself am on my second marriage, and so is my husband. We’ve been together almost 38 years and married 36. We both felt that we learned so much from the mistakes in our first relationships that it helped so much in this relationship. Also I like to say that we are all responsible for our reactions. It’s not necessarily an easy path to follow, I have fallen off of it many times. But I remind myself of this and it helps immensely. Don’t worry about answering my comments. Once the Pentatonix find you, we can become rather overwhelming. 😂 🤗💋🥰
I think you'd really enjoy a mini documentary about them recording their "Evergreen" Christmas Album. It's really interesting (and fun), and you can see their process for approaching composition, their work ethic, etc. It's called "Pentatonix - The Recording of Evergreen". It's 17:09 minutes in length.
This song is exactly what the world needs to hear right now. Pentatonix is a godsend. And you hit the nail on the head when you said that we cannot always control what happens in this world, but we can surely control how we react to it. That's our power, and we don't even know it. Thanks for such a clear-headed reaction. Peace.
This is from Pentatonix's 2021 originals album, "The Lucky Ones", but this official video was released in August, 2020. It helped me stay positive during the worst of the Covid restrictions; I think I watched it at least once a day for over a month. I find most Pentatonix videos give me positive energy, maybe because you can tell they are so happy to be performing.
I didn't have time tonight to watch any more videos, but I saw this thumbnail and I had to click! I'm so glad you chose to react to Happy Now. It's one of my favorites--probably top 5 among all their original songs. I love the message, and the complex structure of the song, and so many wonderful touiches (like the end, when Scott air-drums to Kevin's vocal drums). Great song, great video. I'm so glad you GOT it, and that you liked it. Happiness is definitely a choice--and that's definitely easier said than done.
Hello Saeed, How did I miss this reaction - from five days ago - so glad that I found it. Love how you interpret PTX songs. "Happy Now" is one of my favourite PTX originals with a great message, great beat and great video. Thanks for your motivational message too. Looking forward to more of your PTX reactions!
I love this one. My husband passed and it was very hard to get past grief and depression but had to pick myself up to parent our young child. It has been a huge reminder to continue to live life both for myself and for our child whom definitely deserves to always be happy. ❤
Love your reaction and interpretation of this song. I am blessed with a inner happiness even in difficult times, lost my twin sister, but have such endearing memories that make me laugh out light. I laugh everyday of my life. Great reaction. Greetings from South Africa
One on my playlist. Love this song! As amazing as their covers are, their originals are even more so. Each of them are great song writers and arrangers. Scott is a prolific song writer and a beast vocally. He wrote a song everyday of the pandemic shutdown year. One of those songs is Mars. It is such a beautiful song! He has a couple of official music videos of the song. One is a studio version with a beautiful video. The other is a live version with a choir accompaniment. They are both spectacular, but the vocals in the live choir version will melt your brain cells! Hope you get a chance to react to it. It would be great to see both versions in one reaction. But, if that is asking too much . . . 😊, the live choir version is the one I recommend. Think you would seriously love it! Thanks for another great reaction! Ooh. I see an Avi and Ren & Chinchilla reactions from you for today. Gotta check those out now! Getting spoiled 😊
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to write this comment. They are really spectacular. And hope you enjoy the other video's. Have a wonderful day.
Thanks for your wonderful reaction and for sharing your thoughts with us! You were right with the sheet on Mitch, hiding his true self.. but he threw the sheet away and burst out like the beautiful butterfly he is, not hiding anymore and happy.. please do more of their original music, not all of it has music videos (just visualizers), but it's so great.. you could try Coffee in bed, Never gonna cry again or Petals
Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I will write those songs down. I also recorded a reaction to Love Again that should be coming to the channel soon.
I'm sure all the color effects are digitally added, but it reminds me of the Hindu festival of Holi that celebrates, spring, love and color. During the festival people throw handfuls of brightly colored powdered dye at each other until everyone is covered with color.
I love your reactions/commentary! I think the message is also that true happiness begins with self-love. Congratulations on 7 years of marriage with your high school sweetheart- my high school sweetheart and I will be celebrating 37 years of marriage this year 🥳💜. All of their originals are so excellent. They are great lyricists as well as arrangers/singers. I highly recommend Love Again, Coffee in Bed, Be My Eyes and See Through (this one is audio-only so less issue with copyright I think 👍🏻) for 4 more stellar originals that are all quite different.
Thank you so much and congrats on your 37 years, that is amazing and inspiring. I just recorded a reaction to Love Again and it was SO good. Should be coming to the channel this week.
Great reaction to a song that covers a huge range of emotions. I don't know if anyone else had this reaction, but this came out during Covid when they were all in their separate homes sending in videos and recordings to their arranging group. It made me feel better about having to be more on my own and finding joy in simple things, like flowers and music and dancing, even if alone. We all found ways to enjoy what we could during those 2+ years, and made clear what is really important to us.
Yay! Originals time! I love the originals!! Sing, love again, love me when i dont.. not sure which you've done yet, im catching up on your ptx reactions but didnt want to forget to suggest these 😊❤
I don't know if this was a collaboration by the group but I do know Scott has written several songs, Thank You, Mars, Parallel, and Four. These songs go from meeting his now husband Mark and the progression he goes through. They were just recently married and I would love your reaction. 🤗
I think you should watch the prayer. You are not ready for Aha live from Singapore but maybe watch the official video. I can't wait till you are ready. I look forward to this every night!
You also might have experienced this during your recovery from addiction. That too is a powerful “relationship!” You used substance to feel and now that substance isn’t in my life but can I still feel and are those feelings ok?
It really is a relationship, and we often got back together. Then it turned into a mourning proces and a journet to who i was without it. This song was amazing!
Great reaction to this great break-up song. It's giving permission to be happy again now the break-up and the pain has passed. A good message. Most of the time one or two of the group will write a song and others, plus a professional songwriter will have input. And, of course, revisions happen during pre-recording sessions, so essentially the whole group is involved to some degree. More originals: Run To You, Sing, Coffee In Bed, Be My Eyes, Love Me When I Don't, Love Again, The Lucy Ones, Prayers For This World, Thank You. There's more that I can't think of right now, but others will probably chime in with more.
Great reaction. Your comment about the meaning of being under the sheet, did not make that connection until u said it. And I’ve seen this several times.
This song came out about 2 years after my sister passed. It completely captures that pang of guilt for enjoying things she can't anymore... I listen to this and it feels like permission to keep living for us both.
What a sweet comment. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing. Sending you lots of strength and love.
Love Again is an original of theirs and it is awesome. It's an EDM vibe. It's a party! They have so many underrated originals.
I loooove 'Love again!. Especially for Kevins and Avis part 🥰
I just recorded a reaction to this one. Banger! Should be coming to the channel this week.
Another original I love is Coffee In Bed
Looking forward to it.
Being a widow myself, and all the people who have lost loved ones, we often feel this way. Am I allowed to be happy, have fun, laugh, live?
I know it comes at a different place in the process for everyone, but when you ask, the answer is yes.
Thank you for sharing this. Lots of love, Saeed
Exactly. It's been 17 years for me and I sometimes still feel this way.
You should have your wife with you when you do "I Can't Help Falling in Love With You" - it's such a romantic song and beautifully done!
That is a great idea. I dont know if she would like to be on camera 😅
It’s perfection! I cry every time I listen to it.
The Lucky Ones is a great album
Will explore more.
Coffee in Bed, Be My Eyes, Love Me When I don't, Anchor. So many great songs @@SaeedReacts.

Thank you so much for watching and sharing this. Congratulations on your long marriage. And wish you many more years together ❤️
I love this song so much - the symbolism is spot on - happy to see them living the lives that make them happy! Congrats on your amazing relationship!
Great song. Thank you!

We do need more of this. A little light to make the colors brighter. Thank you for watching.

I love they spread that energy during the lockdowns.

Sorry to keep you up 😅. Thank you for watching! I really loved the message of this and it was perfectly executed on all levels. Beautiful!

Glad that RUclips still recommended it to you :). I really love the message in this song. Thanks for watching. Have a great day.
Wishing you a good day also. Appreciate that you take the time to reply@@SaeedReacts. More PTX please. Do you do live streams?
I love this one. My husband passed and it was very hard to get past grief and depression but had to pick myself up to parent our young child. It has been a huge reminder to continue to live life both for myself and for our child whom definitely deserves to always be happy. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss. Sending you lots of strength and love ❤️
I just love their originals. The message and the visuals are really stunning. I'm so glad you love it too.
So good! I just recorded a reaction to Love Again which was also great. That one should be coming sometime this week.
@@SaeedReacts. can’t wait! It’s a real banger. Wish it was longer. LOL
Love Me When I Don't was written by Kirstin. Lovely and comforting song for those down in the dumps
I will add that song to my list. Thank you.
Love your reaction and interpretation of this song. I am blessed with a inner happiness even in difficult times, lost my twin sister, but have such endearing memories that make me laugh out light. I laugh everyday of my life. Great reaction. Greetings from South Africa
Sorry to hear about your loss. Sending you lots of love from Belgium ❤️
congrats on 20 years 🌼🌺🌼

Can we just mention Kevin’s amazing beat boxing in this song?
I'm sure all the color effects are digitally added, but it reminds me of the Hindu festival of Holi that celebrates, spring, love and color. During the festival people throw handfuls of brightly colored powdered dye at each other until everyone is covered with color.
Right, i have seen a documentary about that festival. I forgot about that one.

Coffee in bed. Another Awesome original
Looking forward to that one.

Amazing they did this during covid. That is a nice insight to enjoy and appreciate the simple things in life.
And still another original is SING!❤
Will check that one out as well. Thank you.
Another great originals are “Run to you” and “light in the hallway “
Thanks for the recommendations.
Yay! Originals time! I love the originals!! Sing, love again, love me when i dont.. not sure which you've done yet, im catching up on your ptx reactions but didnt want to forget to suggest these 😊❤
These are great! I have done Love Again. Will also do the others you suggested.
@@SaeedReacts. thank you 😊😊 ill keep an eye out for them ☺️
Most of their originals is, Profound. Love Me When I Don't, is just that
Will add those to my list. Thank you.
Recommend their original, Be My Eyes.
Will add that song to my list. Thanks.
ANOTHER ORIGINAL IS LOVE AGAIN, AVI AND MITCH SOUND AMAZING AND KEVIN SHOWS HE IS BEYOND HUMAN
I recorded a reaction to Love Again. Amazing! Should be coming this week.
My favourite original of theirs is “Sing”
Will add that one to my list. Many thanks.
I don't know if this was a collaboration by the group but I do know Scott has written several songs, Thank You, Mars, Parallel, and Four. These songs go from meeting his now husband Mark and the progression he goes through. They were just recently married and I would love your reaction. 🤗
Those songs were not on my list yet, but they are now 😀. Thank you!
Awesome Reaction!
Thank you!
I think you should watch the prayer. You are not ready for Aha live from Singapore but maybe watch the official video. I can't wait till you are ready. I look forward to this every night!
I will try to get to that one this week. Thank you.
You also might have experienced this during your recovery from addiction. That too is a powerful “relationship!” You used substance to feel and now that substance isn’t in my life but can I still feel and are those feelings ok?
It really is a relationship, and we often got back together. Then it turned into a mourning proces and a journet to who i was without it. This song was amazing!
this is my first time also 🤣 lets do it together
Yes 😁
Great reaction to this great break-up song. It's giving permission to be happy again now the break-up and the pain has passed. A good message.

Thank you for the recommendations. Excite for more Pentatonix originals´
Great reaction. Your comment about the meaning of being under the sheet, did not make that connection until u said it. And I’ve seen this several times.
Thank you so much. Have a wonderful day.
Her name is Kir stin. She speaks about how it bothers her that no one bothers to say her name correctly. Kirstin , nickname Kirstie. Not Keerstin.
Thank you! People always mess my name up, so i understand that sentiment.
They write their own songs but do co writing with others.
Awesome!
Hey dude great reaction. To understand the end of this son you need to react to suic1de and for Joe. You will understand why. Nuce reaction though 🔥
I will definitely get to those. Thanks!
