    Great reaction. So glad you were open to try it. This band is absolutely next level. No instruments aside from their voices and beat boxing in this one. Occasionally Kevin Olusola (tenor) plays the cello too and beat boxes at the same time but not often. Avi (pronounced Ah-Vee) Kaplan is the original bass profundo of the group and he also majored in Opera. He also supports Kevin with whistling, overtone and other EDM sounds. He left the band late 2017 due to personal matters and health issue with family member. He has a wonderful solo career now and is beloved. This whole band is beloved and they are musical geniuses. Scott Hoying(blond baritone), Kirstin Maldonado(mezzo soprano) and Mitch Grassi grew up together in Texas. Please react to Hallelujah as mentioned by many below. It still gives me chills and makes me tear up. They also perform it live in their Christmas Special 2016. You wont believe your ears. They won 3 Grammy awards in the earlier years when Avi was with them. Daft Punk(medley) is the first Grammy. Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy is the second and a collaboration with Dolly Pardon singing Jolene is the third. Pentatonix fans (Pentaholics) are the best and will support you on this journey. Thanks again for you reaction.

      They've got the Weird Al effect. More often than not the original artists are flattered they adapted their music (that's a more honest word than covered, because they have to totally rearrange songs for a capella). I know Leonard Cohen before he died praised their version of Hallelujah. Ariana Grande gushed about their acapella medley of her songs. I've heard Beyonce liked their adaptation of her songs. Meghan Trainor complimented their cover of her. That's just off the top of my head. Oh, and Dolly Parton covered one of her most famous songs WITH them and won a Grammy.

    I can't think of any better honor , than having such a respectful and beautifully crafted rendition given as tribute to the Legend Freddie Mercury. Very talented bunch . such a wonderful job . I'll bet Freddie is smiling from on high and well pleased that the greatest rock- pop song ever written is being kept alive for new , younger generations to hear. However I think it only fair to mention to the younger generation , that as wonderful as Pentatonix are , the original Queen masterpiece , was accomplished with sheer raw ability..no modern over quantization, excessive auto-tune , or computer generated Midi tracks and effects....

    Hi Jen, I just discovered you doing PTX. Yeah, FYI, the girl Kirstin, the "guitarist" Mitch and the blond guy Scott,kno each other since middle school. They had their first a capella group "The Trio" in High school, when trying for a competition "The Sing Out", they were informed, they needed at least 5 (penta) members. Searching Scott found a bass singer studying opera at the university named Avi Kaplan and they found on YT a beatboxer, who could play masterfully cello and beatboxing at the same time Kevin Osuola. Avi had to leave in, I think, 2017 because his mother was seriously ill and the stress of touring took its toll on him, so he searched for a replacement and found Matt Sallee, a wonderful charming man. The others will tell you more about those people, but they are also helping others, when they can. You and yours, please stay save and healthy. As always German greetings.

    Your reaction to Mitch the Human Guitar .... XD. He is an amazing mimic as well as a fantastic counter-tenor. Until the 2017 departure of Avi Kaplan, who sings bass/performs vocal bass in this one, Mitch was the youngest (although close in age to Scott, the blond baritone, and Kirstin, the mezzo-soprano, who were his high school classmates: often called "The Trio" after their teenaged singing group), so the time lapse between the two videos is clear (although even before that, Mitch was changing his look constantly, as does Kirstie). Matt Sallee, the new bass, is now the youngest. He sings beautifully, but Avi was in a separate category: an operatically trained basso profundo, capable of damaging cheap audio equipment with his powerful low notes. Kevin, the tenor-singing (and sometimes cello-playing) beatboxer, is the "old man" of the group, by maybe 3 years or so.

      They did add distortion to his voice for the produced version according to Kevin, but if you watch any of the live versions it doesn't sound much different without the distortion.

    • @UserHorologium
      @UserHorologium 3 года назад +1

      They add the distortion on-the-fly through the microphone during the live performances. It's apparently not a difficult process (essentially flipping a switch, but don't hold me to that) and it makes that section work. They didn't use it for a very early live performance I have heard, and the performance suffered as a result. Mitch is outstanding, but he cannot (yet) fully reproduce a distorted electric guitar played by an expert like Brian May.

    Just remember that PTX is pure joy! They will always do a song justice, be respectful and often, they make a song even better. I still prefer the original myself, but Man did they make it their own while still honoring the original.

    Great reaction! I enjoyed seeing someone about my age reacting to different music. Having raised 3 "kids" over the years I have been exposed to a LOT of different music. I also directed the music at the Southern Baptist church I went to for 10 years. So I have a really wide range of music that I really, really like. Being open to different kinds of music has really enriched my life. I look forward to seeing more of your reaction videos.

      Hi Pamela! Welcome to the Lounge! I feel EXACTLY the same way about Music. The idea that we (at our age-LOL) Can still appreciate, and fall in love even with artists and genres that we were never exposed to before, it's what makes our lives more enriched and fulfilling! Speaking of, have you listened to any of my other reactions to new (to me) artists? I have been OVERWHELMED with the blessing of great suggestions, that have made me feel emotions I haven't felt in a long time, if ever...Here's a link to my playlist, just incase you wanna trust me and take a chance! (Do yourself a favor and listen to this one first- (DIMASH-DIVA DANCE) Do you remember the movie "The 5th element" with Bruce Willis? Do you remember the Alien Opera Singer? The song she sang in the movie was produced in parts and created so that no human could sing it..DIMASH, justs said- "Hold My Beer"! He is probably the most incredible Voice, I've ever head, EVER. I love all of these artist, so give them a listen, you may just find some new favorites! Cheers, Jennifer

    PTX, along with Home Free and Voiceplay, will lead you down the rabbit hole of A Cappella for this century. There is overlap among all 3 and though we have our favorites, most of us enjoy all 3 groups and the respective solo songs of most of them. For a great dive into PTX, check out their 12 song run from the Sing Off when they were first really getting started and becoming what they are now. You will not be disappointed.

    I liked this video, and will subscribe AFTER you have reviewed two or three more Pentatonix covers. May I suggest you review Amazing Grace, Havana, Can You Feel the Love Tonight, and, from a while ago, Daft Punk Medley, Evolution of Michael Jackson, Evolution of Music, Evolution of Rihanna, etc. etc. The Pentatonix portfolio is wide and deep, and they've some really wonderful original songs as well, at least one or two per album, and two entire albums of original material, the latest being, "The Lucky Ones," about their ten-year journey as professional musicians.

      Hi Susan. I understand. That's totally your perogative. I have one other PTX reaction, "90's dance Medley" on my playlist if you haven't already seen it. But I think you have, if I'm not mistaken...I know that you came for the PTX reactions, and I get it, but...If you get a few moments, I hope you will take a chance and watch a couple of my other reactions. I think you might just be surprised and find something new and wonderful, like I did! There are no bad artists here. Some you may like more than others depending on your taste, but I love them ALL! My eyes have been opened to things I never knew existed! So, here's a link, (I would suggest Dimash- either S.O.S. or Diva Dance first- or Angelina Jordan, &th Heaven, or Bruno Mars-Leave the door open to start) If you do, let me know what you thought!

    Thank you for your thoughtful reply to my suggestions and comments. I discovered Angelina Jordan last year when she first appeared on AGTalent, and when I backtracked, was absolutely blown away by her incredible musicality and talent. I loved "7th Heaven" and most of her catalogue of about 120 songs, with the possible exception of "Song for A," in which the nerves of this English teacher are just too irritated because she mispronounces certain words, over and over, which isn't surprising, since English is only her third or fourth language, but it just strips it fright out of the song. Everybody who is into Dimash seems to love him, but I'm putting him on hold for now, but thanks for the recommendations! Meanwhile, my recommendations still stand, except I agree with the folks that have said you really MUST hear the PTX interpretation of "Imagine." You want shivers and chills, it'll do it!

    One of the hallmarks of great music is its amenity to many different interpretations. I too adore Angelina's version but these guys aren't doing the same thing. They are masters of harmony, with incredible individual voices. She is an individual voice with incredible musical skill and imagination. It ain't the same game. Another example is Angelina and Dina Ankudinova's versions of Wicked Game.

    Pentatonix was the best Acapella Band in the world, the standard that all others try to achieve.

They are still fantastic, but the group had to change because Avi was something really special. Good reactions...thanks.
