Pentatonix Wizard of Ahhhs with Todrick Hall. I think the whole family would enjoy it. It’s a short take on the Wizard of Oz movie but using a lot of modern songs in place of some of the originals but they tie in beautifully with the theme. Enjoying your reactions a lot❣️
The part of Kevin's brain that coordinates multitasking must be madly overdeveloped. Like the others when they are performing live, he's not only thinking about & performing his own parts. They all must listen to each other to help stay on beat & key. That means just doing one instrument or vocal part in a group is already multitasking 2 things. But in songs like this he is essentially doing 2 instruments at once (his voice for beatboxing or singing plus playing the cello) while also constantly staying in sync with the others. I really don't understand how his brain can be processing input & output for all 3 things at one time with no mixups. Even with multiple practice sessions it seems like it would be an impossible task for most people. Then you watch his cover of Down & 😮. Watching him do his arrangement like that in one take is just amazing. He could just record himself doing the different parts & then layer them together in the studio, but no he does his recording all at once just like it's a live show & makes it look easy. 🤯😍
Ok so it seems as if we need to make our way over to his solo channel and react to some of his solo videos. 100 % agreed with what you said about multitasking skills. Reading what you wrote gave me a panic attack LOL. Thank you for watching
There's no shame in admitting you like a cover better than the original. Almost nobody remembers that "I Will Always Love You" was covered by Whitney Houston. The original was created and performed by Dolly Parton.
I AGREE WITH YOU. I LIKE THIS VERSION THE BEST. THEY ARE FANTASTIC. THE VISUALS ARE TOP NOTCH WITH THE TOUCHES OF GOLD IN A BLACK AND WHITE AND GRAY SETTING. VERY UNIQUE AND SUBTLE, SOMETHING I ALWAYS APPRECIATE ABOUT PTX. CLASSY IS THE WORD I WAS THINKING OF.
I first noticed Kirstin going into her lower range on the song "Rather Be". Ever since, it seems that she is working lower and lower into that rich and warm lower register. Just my opinion. I like every part of her vocal range. It seems that often she is singing a lower part than Mitch.
Love the reaction! Scott being from Texas helps him with the country :). For more Kevin with the cello boxing checkout his Sam Smith stay with me cover!
I know I'm watching some of your reactions out of order, but I have thought for a while that Broadway NEEDS to find a show for the 5 of them... I know Kirstin was in Kinky Boots on Broadway, but their flare for performance would be AMAZING to see.
You asked "what just happened". That was Kirstie & Scott (and the rest of the group) COMPLETELY outshining Lady Gaga & Bradley in every way possible. And it was actually Kevin's "cello boxing" talent that drew the others to bringing him into the group in the first place. This is one of several PTX recordings to feature Kevin's cello.
I agree, better. Just my opinion. Kevin is such a multi-talented genius. Cello and saxophone (he played at Carnegie Hall while still in high school.) perfect pitch, multiple languages, and he was in medical school when he decided he could put that on hold for a semester for a stab at being part of some little insignificant acapella singing group.
Kirstin fits her style to the song. I think with 5 members no one shows all they have all the time. Kevin has played the Cello on at least 3 performances (and he plays it solo often to give the others time for their voices to recover in live performances.).
Kevin's cello is significant because that's how Scott found Kevin on CZcams, where he was doing "cello boxing". Whenever PTX has Kevin playing cello in a song, the cello (named Beyoncé) effectively acts like a sixth voice. After Avi left the group and before Matt joined, the remaining four did a cover of Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" and Kevin's cello filled in as the bass line. czcams.com/video/dyglnLD2joM/video.html
Cello accompanying Shallow: Note that the movie soundtrack includes a cello for Shallow - even though they have a country band and no cello in sight! This suggests that the cello part itself is integral to performing the song. PTX paid homage to the original song instead of reworking it into something totally new.
PENTATONIX can turn poop into cheesecake! Wife has a gorgeous smile. ( My reaction to your reaction😉) I agree with Mr., Kirsten sang lower than usual which coincides with Mrs., her voice was much fuller.
I enjoyed your reactions! Christinga, good eye on the catching the fact they all had a tiny bit of gold on them. (dang, Dennis! I was typing the gold bit after I typed it! lol) Yes, occasionally, a cappella groups will include an instrument (sometimes with a guest performer). Home Free did it twice: once with Charlie Daniels on “Devil Went Down To Georgia’ where he played his fiddle, and the second time was a young woman (I forgot her name) where she played the violin on the version of “Silent Night”. Kevin is a beast on the cello, and with his beatboxing. I think I saw a video of him prior to their Sing Off gig. Anyway, I enjoyed it! Be safe!
PTX has quite a few songs now, that features Kevin's Cello (Beyonce) and his cello-boxing. I highly recommend you check them All out :P Their cover of Say Something (by Great Big World) is a fantastic one.
Other than Bohemian Rhapsody (where I think they showed a lot of respect to Freddie Mercury and Queen) I personally think that pretty much all of their covers are better than the originals. From what I've heard, even Leonard Cohen said he thought their version of Hallelujah was the best.
O i forgot can you guys play some token songs too like flamingo, code red ,republican, and CZcams rapper I think you guys would enjoy it. He spits flames too 🔥🔥😁
King Family Reacts yes he did, he has another one that’s electric called Mr Carter, he has recently said he wants another kind of cello and name it Blue Ivy, pentatonix especially Scott love Beyoncé
Loving the reactions guys 🔥 can you react to breaking news 2 by mgk it’s a little freestyle he spits flames on it. Thank you guys for making my day a little bit better have a good one! 🔥
Just found your channel and going thru your ptx collection! Accidentally hit the dislike button but no worries, changed it to a thumbs up. Oh and also….. i subscribed!
I love your videos!! Can you please react to donna missals video for “let you let me down”? She has such a beautiful voice I feel like y’all would love her! ❤️ czcams.com/video/bqbJH5yeP2Q/video.html

@@KingFamilyReacts You will be amazed! They are all so talented, but he is definitely a standout even among great performers!!
Oh! That's how Scott found Kevin in the first place... a CZcams cello beat box video with a ton of views!
That's pretty cool
Here’s that video:czcams.com/video/NKVNrrrNxU0/video.html
@@shortybarnesyanik Thank you. We'll record it ASAP
I like the cover better too, although that’s not exactly uncommon when it comes to PTX covers lol
Kirstin is fantastic in this! I love her voice so much.
The sheer talent in these five individuals never ceases to amaze. Great reaction and I enjoyed watching how the music affected both of you.
Thank you so much. We love a good acapella cover :)
Guys In case no one has said it yet; Welcome to the Pentatonix family. You are definitely pentaholics

Love Pentatonix so much. Kevin is awesome. He can do everything.
Pentatonix over the rainbow please! May be my favorite version of the song!
Love the reaction! Scott being from Texas helps him with the country :). For more Kevin with the cello boxing checkout his Sam Smith stay with me cover!
Thank you so much. Added to the list :)
I know I'm watching some of your reactions out of order, but I have thought for a while that Broadway NEEDS to find a show for the 5 of them... I know Kirstin was in Kinky Boots on Broadway, but their flare for performance would be AMAZING to see.
Can u guys react to Kevin's cover of Down, u WILL BE BLOWN AWAY?
#StaySafe
Thank you for watching. We are getting more and more of this song. Added to our list and we're about to dive in to his solo efforts
Kevin was discovered my PTX while playing cello and beat boxing on You Tube. :) So talented!
Thank you for this reaction to pentatonix. They did this song amazingly and i love how they did this video.
Agreed. Beautifully done!
If you like KO on cello, check out "Radioactive" with KO on cello, Lindsey Stirling on violin, and Avi singing bass.
Thanks! We will.
Kevin doesn't just play the cello He is a classically trained cellist who has performed in Carnegie Hall!
Scott was signed to a record deal at the age of 11 and recorded a country album. You can find it is you look really hard.
You asked "what just happened". That was Kirstie & Scott (and the rest of the group) COMPLETELY outshining Lady Gaga & Bradley in every way possible. And it was actually Kevin's "cello boxing" talent that drew the others to bringing him into the group in the first place. This is one of several PTX recordings to feature Kevin's cello.
Lady Gaga's song "Joanne" may change your mind about her. Written about her father's sister who died at 19 from Lupus...beautiful, soulful piece.
I agree, better. Just my opinion.
Kevin is such a multi-talented genius. Cello and saxophone (he played at Carnegie Hall while still in high school.) perfect pitch, multiple languages, and he was in medical school when he decided he could put that on hold for a semester for a stab at being part of some little insignificant acapella singing group.
Pentatonix doesnt do covers, they do upgrades.🎼
Kirstin fits her style to the song. I think with 5 members no one shows all they have all the time. Kevin has played the Cello on at least 3 performances (and he plays it solo often to give the others time for their voices to recover in live performances.).
Check Kevin "KO" Olusola's youtube channel to see more of his celloboxing, I suggest his "Down KOver" first. but he has a good bunch of videos.
Kevin invented cello boxing ♥️
New subscriber here-please react to pentatonix Say Something.Kirstie is the lead and Kevin plays his cello...That he can cellobox is off the charts
Thank you for subbing. We are recording Say Something this Saturday. It should be out sometime next week 😁
Great job.
I agree 💯 like this one better

Thank you Scott. His cello is named Beyonce for real?
King Family Reacts yep and he has an electric one called Mr Carter
@@cazlaming Haha... so funny. Thank you 😁
kevin calls it "chelloboxing"

Imagine is ready to go. It should be up on Monday :) Thank you
I love yours reaction can you react to voiceplay " something just like this" please
Thank you Nicole :) Sure will. Added to our list
No disrespect to Lady Gaga, but Kirsten does this beyond the movie sound track, and IMHO Kirstie has surpasses any other cover i have heard.
There are a huge number of PTX's covers that are far better than the original. Not all, but most.
That's not a cello, that Beyoncé. It amazes me how much they fill in sound.
Agreed. Never a blank space so to speak. Did he name the cello Beyonce?
King Family Reacts yes he did, he has another one that’s electric called Mr Carter, he has recently said he wants another kind of cello and name it Blue Ivy, pentatonix especially Scott love Beyoncé
@@cazlaming I see that lol. Thank you
Guys please do arose by Eminem it's about him when he was dying in the hospital bed after his overdose it's such a beautiful song
First time seeing this song. Added to our list. Thank you for watching :)
Headphones are better

Loving the reactions guys 🔥 can you react to breaking news 2 by mgk it’s a little freestyle he spits flames on it. Thank you guys for making my day a little bit better have a good one! 🔥

I miss Avi, but I think Matt is a great fit with the group.
Try Lady Gaga at the 2015 Oscars
Penatonix I found a girl. See I didn't mention Voctave
Just found your channel and going thru your ptx collection! Accidentally hit the dislike button but no worries, changed it to a thumbs up. Oh and also….. i subscribed!
Thank you so much 🥰
3/10 for not wearing a good pair of headphones while listening to PTX.
Cut us some slack or at least watch to a newer reaction. Always have headphones now 😁😁😁
@@KingFamilyReacts Good to know, A good pair of headphones is a perquisite for Pentantonix.
@@Radwar99 Try Coffee In Bed reaction. Matt's bass really stands out 👍🏻
I love your videos!! Can you please react to donna missals video for “let you let me down”? She has such a beautiful voice I feel like y’all would love her! ❤️ czcams.com/video/bqbJH5yeP2Q/video.html
