    Haha! Your reaction to Mitch Grassi at 5:22 is what we Pentaholics call a „Mitch Slap“. The expression of disbelief „Is this really his voice?!?“ is what we are all here for!

    "Kiss from a Rose" is a very recent one that's astounding. "Bohemian Rhapsody" is incredible, "Daft Punk Medley" won them their first Grammy. "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" is magical. Hard to go wrong with them.

    @Badger77722 Před měsícem +46

    Oh, yeah! That was a great Mitch-slap!
    Mitch Grassi is a high tenor/countertenor, and his voice is very distinctive. He's been called a "once in a generation" talent, and once you've heard a few Pentatonix songs, you'll be able to recognize his voice instantly - except when he's singing harmony with Kirstin, the mezzo soprano, because their vocal ranges overlap almost completely, and their timbres also match each other, so they blend together so well that it can be very difficult to tell them apart.
    Recommendations: Daft Punk (to see just how different they can sound from this song - it also won them their first of 3 Grammy awards), and to see them live, just search "Pentatonix Hollywood Bowl", for a number of songs that were live-streamed from their September 2022 concert.

  • @ShreveportJoe
    @ShreveportJoe Před měsícem +50

    There are so many mind blowing choices in their catalogue… The Sound of Silence, the Daft Punk Medley, Bohemian Rhapsody, the Evolution of Michael Jackson, Mad World, Imagine, the 90s Dance Medley, the Evolution of Music, Little Drummer Boy… everyone has their favorites.

    Pentatonix a "brief" background.
    They won The Sing Off in 2011. They made a guest starring appearance on America′s Got Talent as non−competitors a couple of years after that.
    The founding members are:-
    Scott Hoying (tall blond guy, natural baritone but has an impressive five−to−six octave range, can go all the way up to high tenor and down to bass, sings the bass lines when the usual bass singer takes the lead);

    Kirstin "Kirstie" (Rhymes with "Thirsty") Maldonado (the only female member, natural mezzo soprano, but can go down to low alto and as high as upper soprano, also can sing in whistle notes that are off the scale); For a time in 2018 between the group’s tours, had the female lead on Broadway in the production of “Kinky Boots”.
    Mitch Grassi (a true contra−tenor, can hit high notes in his chest voice with ease and go WAY higher in his falsetto, also with ease);
    Avriel "Avi" Kaplan (dark beard and long hair), true basso profundo, trained as an opera singer, also can go up into the tenor range; and
    Kevin "KO" Olusola (beatboxer extraordinaire, also is a world−class cellist who plays cello on some of their songs, has a beautiful high tenor voice and gets occasional lead vocal solos as well, graduated pre−med from Yale and speaks several languages including Mandarin Chinese).
    Kirstie, Scott & Mitch grew up together in Arlington, Texas, and began performing together as children in local youth musical theater. They ended up in high school together and performed in the choir. While there, they formed an a cappella group called The Trio which had several performance videos go viral on CZcams, most notably a cover of Lady Gaga′s "Telephone". The three of them are best friends and consider themselves to be almost siblings.
    Scott & Kirstie (who were a class year ahead of Mitch) both graduated high school in 2010 and went their separate ways to different colleges, Scott at USC and Kirstie at Oklahoma.
    While at USC, Scott joined a USC−based a cappella group called the SoCal VoCals, where he met alumnus Ben Bram, who was now an arranger and vocal coach for the NBC TV show The Sing Off, an a cappella competition show. Ben convinced Scott to get The Trio to audition for the show. The three reunited (Mitch had to skip high school graduation ceremonies to go) in Los Angeles for the audition.
    They found out that the rules had changed, so they needed at least five members to audition. Ben put them together with Avi (a native of Visalia, California), who he knew from Avi′s performing days at Mount San Antonio College in California. They found Kevin (from Kentucky) through one of his CZcams videos that had gone viral featuring him playing the cello and beatboxing at the same time, a talent that Kevin coined as "Cello−Boxing".
    Kevin arrived in Los Angeles literally the day before the audition! Scott came up with the name "Pentatonix" after the pentatonic scale. They performed a re−arrangement of "The Telephone" for the audition and passed, despite having been together as a five−piece group for less that 24 hours!
    They won The Sing Off that season (all of the performances are available on CZcams), in which they received a substantial cash prize AND a record contract with Epic Records. They pooled their prize winnings together and all moved to Los Angeles, and all got apartments right next door to each other in the same building.
    But just a week later, Epic dropped them because the marketing people didn′t think an a cappella group could sell records.
    Instead of giving up, they were determined and began recording their own songs on CZcams, hiring Ben Bram as their producer and arranger. These usually consisted of the five of them sitting on a couch and performing cover songs live.
    Several of the videos went viral, and Sony (the parent company of Epic) decided to give them another chance by placing them on one of their smaller labels, Madison Gate. They released two secular EPs and one Christmas EP on Madison Gate, all of which were strong sellers.
    But when their cover of a medley of songs by Daft Punk not only went super−viral, but also won them their first Grammy, they were promoted all the way up to RCA Records, Sony′s top label.
    They began writing and producing their own songs in addition to their covers, began putting out a Christmas album just about annually (which has become their best−selling genre), and have had multi−platinum album sales, sold−out world tours, and have won two additional Grammys.
    Avi began getting burned out with all of the touring and heavy recording schedule, was suffering from anxiety and personal problems, and learned that his mother had been diagnosed with cancer in 2017. He announced he was departing from the group and taking some time away from the music industry.
    Matt Sallee (from Baltimore) joined them in September 2017. He did only become official when they renewed their RCA contract in February 2018, but he recorded with them in September as a featured artist and went on their Christmas tour as a featured artist, as well. When he attended the audition for the group, he had already mastered the Bass part for most if not all their past catalogue. He was successful and has proved that he fits in well with the group.
    If you think there have been other changes to the line up - look again. This is the ONLY change. Kirstie and Mitch are like chameleons and change looks frequently.
    It is an often debated subject among the Pentaholics as to just how soon we introduce the "Beginners Guide" as we don't want to overdo the introduction. This is a compilation of snips of a whole load of songs which PTX have released. It highlights each member with some of their solos and then a brief history in video. It is quite long - 14+ minutes and is a little dated now (Feb 2020) but is a good watch czcams.com/video/lDxIfwfCmQE/video.html&pp=ygUdYmVnaW5uZXJzIGd1aWRlIHRvIHBlbnRhdG9uaXg%3D.
    After a year away from music, Avi has now returned as a phenomenal solo artist in the Folk/Americana/Roots genre.
    Ben Bram has been in charge of their production, including arranging and directing from the beginning. He is often referred to as the sixth member. Scott and Kevin are major players in the arrangements, but every member contributes. A good watch is "The Recording of Evergreen" where a camera was invited into the studio for the second week of recording/
    Also, all members are songwriters for both Pentatonix and their own solo work.
    Ed Boyer who mixes everything of theirs (even the HWB Livestream) is the one who pulled Ben Bram into the sing off in the first place.
    They have Grammy wins for Daft Punk Medley, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, and Jolene featuring Dolly Parton. They were nominated for a 4th Grammy for their album Evergreen, but didn't win. Another nomination for Holidays Around the World album in the 2024 list!
    Kirstie became a new mum which caused a pause in touring after their Evergreen Christmas tour 2021. Mid March 2023 Kirstie has announced that she is engaged to Ben Hausdorff, their videographer. They married 22/04/24!
    They have a star on the Hollywood walk of fame installed in February 2023. They are the only a capella group with a star!
    They came 3rd in the 2023 Masked Singer performing as "California Rolls" being unmasked in May 23.
    Things you need to know because if you get these wrong Pentaholics will come after you with pitch forks and torches! Ha Ha!!
    1- There is NO Auto-Tune; what you hear is actually what they sing. They really are that good. One exception is the 90's Dance Medley where Cher used autotune as an effect - so they had to.
    2- What produces everything that you hear in the video, you see in the official video. If there is an instrument used in the music, you see it on screen. In the 2022 Christmas album, there are some instruments not featured throughout the album.
    3- They never release something on video they can’t reproduce with the exact same quality live on-stage.
    4. It is "Pentatonix" there is no "The".

      I agree! My sister recommended that I watch this video and Mitch's solo cover of "Your Power," and my life was literally changed. I don't want to sell the other members' short, because they're all fantastically talented, and voices in perfect harmony have always been my "thing," but hearing Mitch for the first time was like opening a door and finding a world of indescribable beauty that I never knew existed.

    PTX has 3 grammys and a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. KO the beatboxer invented an artform called celloboxing where he plays the cello and beatboxes simultaneously. Oh he was also premed at Yale when they found him and speaks multiple languages. As an appropriate intro to this group I strongly recommend their "Sing Off" performances which is their origin story. Lets just say the other groups competing against them were bowing at their feet. They have almost 400 songs to react to but they also have over 5 BILLION views on youtube. Yes that is a B and not a M. All are well deserved. Welcome to the rabbit hole. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

    i discovered youtube reactions during covid. had a rough spot with my mental health during lockdown. pentatonix reactions, specifically, helped majorly. they have a way of just hitting the deepest part of our souls we didn't know needed hit. they always talk about the "sweet spot" in the entertainment industry and for me, pentatonix goes beyond that.
    on new meds so haven't been as emotional reacting to the videos lately (yay zombie mode! 😂) but watching this with you, helped me break that barrier.
    thank you for going on this journey. you will be so appreciative of the 🌟pure magic🌟 that they bring to you life - the reminder is cherished 🩶

    Pentatonix really paved the way for groups like Home Free and Voice Play and other acapella groups that are trying to make a name for themselves. They are so good at what they do and they are so talented. I would suggest watching their live version because you can see how well they sound in a live setting because they sound just like their official videos. Enjoy the Pentatonix ride.

    Wonderful reaction !!!
    It’s hard for a true reactor or most anyone for that matter not to get a little teary eyed and have a few sniffles watching this performance for the first time… or second… or third :)
    Pentatonix won the 3rd season of a singing competition show called The Sing Off in 2012.
    Home Free won the following year.
    A third acapella group that has joined these two from that show and has helped blow up CZcams with their songs is Voice Play.
    If you had to categorize them:
    Pentatonix - mainstream/pop
    Home Free - Country
    Voice Play - Theater
    Although they can’t truly be categorized because they all can simply do it all. You really can’t miss when picking songs of theirs to react to. All three groups have had a couple of lineup changes over the past twelve years, so you might see some unfamiliar faces once in awhile.
    Here’s a few videos many reactors have started with:
    Pentatonix:
    Hallelujah
    Daft Punk
    Mary did you know
    Sound of Silence
    Bohemian Rhapsody
    Imagine
    Amazing Grace
    90s Dance Medley
    Mad World
    Come Along
    My Favorite Things
    Wizard of Ahhhs
    Any Christmas song they did
    Home Free:
    Ring of Fire
    Sea Shanty Medley
    Man of Constant Sorrow
    God Bless the USA w/ Lee Greenwood
    Do You Hear What I Hear
    The Butts remix
    Seven Bridges Road
    Mayday
    Fishin in the Dark
    Gambler
    When a Man Loves a Woman
    American Pie w/ Don McLean
    Folsom Prison Blues
    Voice Play:
    Oogie Boogie’s Song
    The Little Mermaid Medley
    Moana Medley
    This is Halloween
    Valhalla Calling
    Hoist the Colours
    You’re a mean one Mr Grinch
    Hellfire
    Man in the Mirror
    Unchained Medley w/ John Pinto Jr
    Good 4 U
    Running up that Hill
    Whoa

    I love your respect for the music and their singing. Songs and music sometimes just hit you. This is my fav a capella. Always. Always sound amazing. Always pushing boundaries. Always loving their craft.

    The fact that they are covering all the material they are without instruments (A Capella) is truly extraordinary.

    Your guess that they were all theater kids is almost correct! Scott (tall blonde) Kirstie, and Mitch (big hat, big voice) did grow up singing together in high school! They added Kevin (beatboxer) and Avi (bass) when they decided to audition for the tv show The Sing Off in 2011. The show was an acapella singing competition. You can watch their performances for the whole season. It's really cool to watch them start and then grow into the amazing group they are today. Avi, the bass singer, left the group in 2017, so in some videos you will see another guy, Matt. He started in 2017 and is also amazing! Mitch and Kirstie (rhymes with thirsty) change their looks a lot, so don't be confused. Its always the same 5 except for the bass singer.

    No there is no bad Pentatonix cover. However, The Prayer is probably one of the best covers of any song period. You mentioned that you were shaken to your core from this cover. If so, The Prayer cover will bring you to tears.

    Bohemian Rhapsody is so incredible that Brian May, the guitar player for Queen, reposted it onto his page. Now that’s high praise.

    I’ve watched this Pentatonic video many times but I just was struck by a certain magical similarity between Mitch’s first solo note and Dimash’s last note on “Ave Maria.” Both are exquisite, resonate deeply in the soul and transcendent.
    Thank you so much for this reaction. You’ve got me wiping my eyes. Hoping you get to watch and react to much more Pentatonix, VoicePlay and Home Free.

    As an official " Pentaholic " I am looking forward to seeing you react to more Pentatonix ... You're right, they do have so much good music that you haven't listened to yet...and I saw that you got your first " Mitch slap "... That's what they call the reaction that you had and other reactors have when they first hear counter tenor Mitch Grassi start to sing... as always, I loved your reaction ... I will look forward to your next reaction of Pentatonix...Keep being awesome !!!...

    I was so excited to see your reaction for Mitch when I saw how much you were enjoying the rest of them. Mitch's voice is so surreal in this song.
    They have so many amazing songs. I really love, "Love Me When I Don't," which is also an original song. The lyrics and their voices are amazing.

    They have a original song named Run to You; If you want an epic fantastical experience then this song is for you, and what is so cool about it other than they wrote it is that this song is earlier in their career, there is another song called Light in the Hallway that they also wrote which is a lullaby and it is also beautiful and just haunting as well.

    Welcome to Pentatonix @AileenSenpai. I watched them win the Sing Off in 2011 and became a Pentaholic way back then. I have been hooked ever since. "Imagine" also brought me to tears along with "The Prayer". As mentioned below, you can't go wrong with anything of theirs in my opinion. One that is seldom reacted to is "Sing". I highly recommend it as break from the emotional that makes you cry. :)

    Many of the comments below suggest you review "Sound of Silence", Bohemian Rhapsody", "Amazing Grace", "Daft Punk Medley", "Can You Feel the Love Tonight?", "90's Dance Medley", Kiss From A Rose", "The Prayer", - and I completely agree. Some of my other favorites are "Say Something", "When the Party's Over", "Blinding Lights", "Wizard of Aahhhs" (with Todrick Hall), " Radioactive" (with Lindsey Sterling), "Jolene" (Grammy award winner with Dolly Parton), and their original "Run To You". Also, when you get into the Christmas season, they have several full albums of the classics and incredible originals to check out.

    Mitch's voice is just Angelic. Their harmony and rhythm is incredible. Hate to blow your mind, but you are missing the 3rd part of the acapella party. Pentatonix, Home Free and Voiceplay. Go check out Voiceplay. you will be shocked by their ability.

    Hi Aileen 😊 Wonderfully beautiful reaction to Pentatonix's Hallelujah 😊👍 Gorgeous acapella 😊 and you are very right everything has to be precision and precise and technical or the performance falls apart and you know this very very well as a singer yourself 😊 As I said before you indeed are a lover of all kinds of music and I believe that is why your channel has grown so much 😊👍 All the recommendations are awesome 😊 and I look forward to your reactions to each and every one of them 😊👍 Have a great day you and Arya 😊👍 PS I checked your earlier video with Voice Play's Oogie Boogie Song and your video of Jeff Castellucci's cover of The Sound of 😊👍 Excellent as always 😊👍 Voice Play, Home Free, now Pentatonix... wonderfully gorgeous acapella for us all to enjoy 😊

    I love your reaction so far. I just paused as Kirstin finished her verse. Watching your facial expressions, I am making the prediction that Mitch will either make you cry or knock you out of your chair. Back in a sec... Yup... you teared up, but you held it together. Is he amazing, or WHAT??!! As many have said, we call that a "Mitch Slap." The term is used in the most loving and respectful way! Great reaction! Welcome to PTX!
