Don’t feel badly about liking their version of songs better than the originals. It is generally understood by most Pentaholics that they don’t do covers, they do upgrades. You haven’t even touched the surface of their music. I am enjoying this ride with you.💕💕

The Five Faces of New Pentaholics 1. The most common is the Mitch Slapped. Commonly found when Mitch is heard for the first time in Hallelujah, The Prayer, Can You Feel the Love Tonight, Creep and doing Aha! at the Star Vista. 2. The Wide Eyed Look of Disbelief. Normally found when you hear their Wall of Sound. Found when listening to Mary Did You Know, Imagine, Amazing Grace, The Prayer and Mad World. 3. The I Didn’t Want It to End face. Most commonly found after listening to the 90s Dance Medley. It can also be found after listening to all their medleys and evolutions. 4. The Teary Eyed Look. This is commonly found when listening to an emotional song of theirs or just the sheer beauty of their work. Commonly found when listening to Mary Did You Know, Hallelujah, Amazing Grace, Imagine, The Prayer, Prayers for This World and most especially Thank You. 5. The What Did I Just Hear Face. Happens when Pentatonix starts strong, or when you hear a really special note or Kevin sound. Is usually accompanied by rewinding the video or song to make sure your ears really heard what they heard. Those times are too many to list, but the most common rewind at the start moment is the beginning of Sound of Silence.

The great strength of Pentatonix is that they combine two traits: Every member could easily front their own group, so no matter who is on lead at any time, the vocals will be amazing.. And they all set their egos aside, when not on lead, each member puts 100% into nailing the background harmonies, rhythms, and "instrument" sounds to make the whole group even better than the sum of it's components. To really appreciate them, you need to listen to each song multiple times, and on some of the re-listens focus only on what's going on in the background. Avi and Kevin (and now Matt and Kevin) provide that solid percussion/bass foundation that everything else is built on, and "The Trio", Scott, Mitch, and Kirstie, when not on lead are doing some amazing things with their voices to fill in the backing. Pure artistry.

This group does this to literally EVERY song they sing so it doesn't really matter which song you choose. Their talent and creativity are so apparent in every performance and I believe their ability to create the most perfect, powerful harmonies is unmatched. I get goosebumps every time no matter how many times I've heard that particular song. If you plan to go further down the PTX rabbit hole, I would advise you to go with their older songs first then move forward so you can see how they have progressed but that's just my opinion. I know that everyone recommends Hallelujah but I have to agree that it's a great place to go. Enjoy!

I just subbed. I really enjoy your Pentatonix (PTX) reactions....very enthusiastic. Since you have now watched 3 of their videos it's time for introductions. Avi (bass) has a plaid shirt on, Scott(baritone) is blonde, Kevin (beatboxer), Kirstie rhymes with thirsty (mezzo soprano), and Mitch is the tenor with the blue shirt and black hair. Now if you like a particular person performance you can call them by name. In 2017 Avi left the group amicably and the new bass became Matt. He is still the bass. This Pentaholic (me) welcomes you down the PTX rabbit hole!

😃Maddy, I Also ABSOLUTELY recommend Hallelujah (official video) and Hallelujah (LIVE) from their Christmas Special in 2016. 👉Get to know these PHENOMENAL, EXTREMELY TALENTED beings: Scott Hoying - tall blonde sings baritone, covers bass when needed and hits HIGH falsettos just as easily. Is EXTREMELY soulful, King of riffs and runs. Kirstin Maldonado (Kirstie rhymes with thirsty) sings mezzo soprano/alto. Don't get confused, Kirstie changes her look A LOT, but it's always Kirstie! Mitch Grassi - small guy with the HIGH voice, sings tenor/counter tenor. Mitch changes his look A LOT if in doubt, know that it's ALWAYS Mitch. 🌟Scott, Kirstie and Mitch are childhood friends from Arlington TX and grew up doing musical theatre and choir. In High School they were known as The Trio. (Still known as The Trio). Kevin Olusula (K.O) is the Beatboxer EXTRAODINAIRE who sings in a BEAUTIFUL tenor voice and plays cello He is also known for "cello-boxing " Playing the cello while beatboxing at the same time. Avi Kaplan - (Ah-vee) sings bass/basso profundo, baritone, overtone. Avi was an original member from 2011 to end of 2017. Left on good terms. Matt Sallee - replaced Avi as bass, baritone in late 2017 PENTATONIX won a televised A Capella singing competition called The Sing Off in 2011 season 3 ( ALL the videos are on Mrduckbear11 's KZitem channel). PENTATONIX or PTX are a 3 Grammy multi Platinum winning group who have accomplished what no other A capella group has ever achieved and continue to break music barriers. Early this year they received a STAR on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame (only Capella group to EVER to receive a STAR. The PENTATONIX catalog is huge and I'll be here for ALL your PTX and PTX related reactions. PENTATONIX fans call ourselves Pentaholics 😅 Every single member also has side/solo projects Every single member EXTREMELY TALENTED 😊

The chances of this group coming together was so infinitesimally small that only the powers that be in the universe could have made it happen. I’m glad they decided to do that to allow us mere mortals to have something to brighten our days. Three kids meet as children who love to sing and decide to keep singing together in school and local theater. As a side note, can you imagine trying to keep those three reigned in in high school choir? Scott, Mitch and Kirstie say that she did help them learn to blend better. They become life-long friends. Scott befriends Ben Bram who helps Scott get on The Sing Off. Ben introduces Scott to Avi. Scott talks Kevin into giving up med school at Yale and joining four strangers to compete on The Sing Off. They actually win the show. Sony drops them so they decide to start building their Pentaholic following on You Tube. Viral videos, and great music follows, and they get resigned to Sony. Avi decides to leave the group and they find another great bass in Matt. While Matt is not Avi, he is still excellent and I think he blends even better with the other members of PTX. If anything happens differently along that path Pentatonix does not exist, and the world is a lesser place.

They've done Queen, Simon & Garfunkel, John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Beyonce, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Imagine Dragons plus too many to mention. Even won a Grammy collabing with Dolly Parton. Plus a unique version of the Wizard of Oz (Ahhhs) I also think they have at least 6 Christmas/Holiday albums. Their original video of Hallelujah has over 700 million views, although I personally prefer the live version from their NBC Christmas special. This showcases what they can do outside a studio, which you witnessed with Daft Punk. Lots to choose from

Don't try to compare songs to their originals. It'll just hurt your brain. There's a time for EDM and there's a time for Pentatonix. It's all in the mood. Having said that, I can try to put your predicament into perspective: When an A Cappella Group goes up against a group that uses instruments, you'd naturally think the musical instrument group has the advantage. But when Pentatonix IS that A Cappella Group, they have the edge. This is because they have five voices to use at their discretion, and each of these voices comes with their own toolbox full of tools. On top of that, they have studied music. They live and breathe it. Composition, technique, harmonies, rhythms, all of that stuff that is over my head... They Know Music. They Master Music. They Invent Music. They ARE Music. In their KZitem documentary "On my Way Home" (don't watch it yet! I'll help you soon, I promise.. it's just a big post so not today.. next PTX reaction)... they mention that in order for a song to be released by them, it has to get past all five of them. They're each perfectionists, but in different ways from each other. So if it gets past all five, you know it's got the PTX Seal of approval and it's going to be insanely good. You need a lot of talent to go up against an EDM Legend like Swedish House Mafia with an A Cappella group, and they have it. Heck, they had it 11 years ago when this video came out.

BUT- I love when they do straight 5 part harmonies- where Kevin and Avi/Matt sing, too. If you want to hear an original like that, look up Run To You. That's one where you kind of just have to close your eyes and listen, though, so even though it has an official video, I'd encourage you to check that one out whether you do a reaction or not. You know what? Yeah I'm gonna say it. It's my favorite they've ever done. That's saying something.
