    Behold the power of Pentatonix - their ability to get you to like a song you were tired of or just didn't think was your style. And, yes the different looks is a Mitch thing. And Kirstie too. It's just one of the many things that go into making them so beloved.

    Leonard Cohen, the song's writer, said that the Pentatonix version of his song was the best rendition he had ever heard. That would be like Dylan saying that the Janice Joplin version of Big Yellow Taxi was the best version ever done (which would be true).

  • @donnone7295
    @donnone7295 Год назад +9

    Did you not notice that in almost EVERY song each member has a verse or part that is specifically best for each member? Kevin even sings, sometimes while playing the Cello. "Say Something" at the end or "Mary Did You Know" or "I Can't Help Falling in Love With You" and "Imagine" he has his solo part.
    More recently, "The Prayer", "I Just Called To Say I Love You" and a surprise with "Amazing Grace." You know their names so you have heard them before.
    They also rap "Can't Hold Us" to winning another Grammy with Dolly Parton in "Jolene" Since this is February Christmas is over, but if you watch their "O Come All Ye Faithful" you can see Kevin's influence to honor his parents with an African vibe. They also have a "90's Dance Melody" and their outfits match the era.

  • @renee176

Mitch went through an evolution in style finding what fit him. I think he's landed on a consistent public look these days, but he's a whole different character as Messer. He's complicated.

    Also, to get around some of the copywrite issues, I have seen other reactors make the video smaller, fade it out some and or include other filters over to slightly distort the image as it seems it is the image that gets the most of the copywrite issue - also people put big letters over the video or a logo to block it out some

    Mitch is a master of disguise!!! Joking, but yeah he does manage to look different a lot depending on the year, hair length and hair colour..or no hair ( check out their vid of Jolene with Dolly Parton, or their cover of Perfume). I think this was the Mojave Desert and they wore jackets even though it was 100F that day, because they wanted to include the song in their Christmas album. They must have been sweating awfully under those coats.
    It's also not actually a Christian song. Leonard Cohen wrote it about love, loss and betrayal, and used some biblical references in it ( David and Bathsheba, Samson and Delilah).

  • @bonnievonbraun6276
    @bonnievonbraun6276 Год назад +35

    Whoa! You hadn't done this yet?! Yeah----not a "Christian" song per se, just some biblical references, and a lot of the pain of love. Ah, we always know that it's Mitch. . . no matter what hair he has or doesn't have. When Avi is singing Scott does the bass line. Go listen to Avi's solo work RIGHT NOW. "Change on the Rise" is a get-up-and-fight anthem.

    • @louiselazar9148
      @louiselazar9148 Год назад +2

  • @margretrosenberg420
    @margretrosenberg420 Год назад +7

    For many of us, this rendition of this song was our first exposure to Pentatonix, and our first Mitch slap. It's also the best rendition of "Hallelujah" I've ever heard, and I've heard a lot. Those are two of the reasons you've been getting so many requests for it.
    Mitch and Kirstin both change appearance frequently. Sometimes I think Kirstie changes her hair color on a daily basis. Mitch has gone from black haired to blond to purple back to black. His hairstyles range from a mullet to bangs that constantly tried to fall in his eyes to a shaved head. Facial hair ranges from clean shaven to a mustache to a mustache and a beard. And his weight has been extremely variable. In *this* video, the primary thing that distinguishes him is his hat, and I believe that was selected specifically so it could block out the sun setting behind them; I haven't seen it in any other videos.
    I don't believe Mitch was trying to disguise himself; this was filmed in 2017, which would make Mitch 24 or 25 years old (depending on when they filmed it), still a young adult (and Mitch's young adulthood has been stranger than most). At the time, Mitch was the youngest member of Pentatonix. He was still trying to come to terms with the bullying he received in high school over how high his voice was, contrasted with the acclaim he's received since for exactly the same thing, which would leave anyone feeling discombobulated - combine that with the difficulty of meeting new people in a casual setting when you're a celebrity, which severely limits one's potential romantic encounters, and I think Mitch was just trying to figure out what his personal style is. He may have decided that his "personal style" is whatever he feels like on any given day, which is a legitimate choice.
    The location was the Mojave Desert, just outside of Barstow, California. I don't know when it was shot, or what the weather was like except that it obviously wasn't raining or snowing.

    • @shsmith999
      @shsmith999 Год назад

      It was shot in August, and they were blazing hot. They were bundled up, in hundred degree heat, because this was recorded for the Christmas album
      There's a Superfruit of Scott shaving Mitch's hair off, which I believe was done relatively close to this shoot, hence bald Mitch underneath that hat. Though, I could be wrong about that timing. But, that is a terrific Superfruit to watch 🤣

    I'm with you, I've never been a fan of Hallelujah the song. It's been so grossly overplayed that I turn it off when it comes on the radio. BUT...I love this version and will listen to it all day long. I love picking out Avi's' part when he goes extra low in contrast to Mitch's highest parts.

    OMG A BACKSTREET BOYS REFERENCE!
    Fun fact: they actually started as an acapella group!
    For the record, Kevin (and Howie if we’re talking underrated) actually sings much more often than you’d think. The more you listen to them you’ll start to notice who shines where in songs because their voices are so different. It’s what, I think, makes them stand a league outside of NSync since they all get their moments that play to their strengths.

    Appreciated your reaction to a song you don’t typically enjoy 😊. However, I also heard you say you typically listen to genres like Rap. Pentatonix actually does a few songs with Rap and I’d especially suggest “Can’t Hold Us, it’s very impressive and your man Scott really takes the Rap lead!
