If you want live, then search for 'Gold' which is just them sat down with mics. Mitch ( the guy in the red suit) does things with his voice that are usually done with effects. Any of their 'Evolution' videos are one take recordings, and their Michael Jackson one is amazing.
There's also the BIG fan favourite, 'Aha' live in Singapore at The Star Vista'. This one was recorded on a fan's phone, so the audio isn't perfect, and Avi (the original bass of the group who left in 2017 and was replaced by Matt) actually blew the speakers, which distorts the audio even more. BUT. Despite ALL of this, it's mind blowing. 😀
This!!
And an outdoor stage..
You should watch their live version of Hallelujah (Christmas special) and their cover of Gold (It is also live), both spectacularly done and you can really see how talented they are)
Also, their cover of Imagine is really good)
@Insta Fruit: Also Dancing on My Own
Also "Cracked" and their Aha in Singapore
I think you would really appreciate their cover of Kiiara's "Gold." Mitch pulls off some vocal gymnastics that Kiiara needed digital help to create, and Avi delivers a couple of bass drops that are positively subterranean. It's a laid back, one-take wonder.
I think that top note was Kirstin. But Kirstin and Mitch have extremely similar ranges. That's one of the secrets of PTX success. When they want to, they can make their voices sound almost identical.
If you're into the stripped-back stuff, any of Pentatonix' "Evolution" videos are pure ear candy. My favourite is their "Evolution of Michael Jackson." No fancy production, just raw musical talent.
A couple of good lives are Aha live in Singapore, the pop spring concert and what is this feeling.
I feel like the drums on this version take away from how amazing their voices are. Y'all need to react to more of their stuff! Amazing Grace, Bohemian Rhapsody, any of their original songs from the Lucky Ones album, etc.
Nah, nothing takes away from their voices. And honestly, I prefer these drums to that orchestra thrown in to back them up a few years ago.
Still, I don’t like the drums either!
I was disappointed when I saw the drums
This group is from Arlington Texas. Scott, Mitch, and Kirsten went to High School together! They sang everywhere they went as kids!
Just to let you guys know you guys were echoing a bit in this one. No worries just letting you know!!
they aren't echoing..... they're transcending!
Strip down Pentatonix...boost the reverb on the Office Blokes. :-)
It affected, I feel, perhaps, the quality of the pentatonix also. Just not sure.
Production!
You three popped up on my recommended videos because....Pentatonix! Pentaholic here, please keep reacting to them! They are amazing and you will NEVER be disappointed. As others have suggested, an amazing one to listen to is their cover of Kiiara's "Gold". I recommend listening to the original artist first, and then Pentatonix's version and well...you'll see 🔥🔥🔥. Subscribed with hopes of more Pentatonix reactions. I think all three of you will become Pentaholics, too.
Pentatonix Pop spring 2016 it has three of their original songs and one Evolution song. You guys would really,really enjoy it.
Mitch, the guy in the red, is doing the high notes absolutely
It's actually Kristin..she hits the same note in her solo
sounds more like kirstin
Mitch can hit the highest notes out of all in the group, as well as he has the widest vocal range of everyone too. He can even hit whistle notes which is EXTREMELY uncommon!
@@Delcattiy No he can't. The highest note in a ptx song was a D6 hit by Kirstin in Seasons of Love. In the videos of Whistle notes the only one doing them correctly is Kirstin.
@@Delcattiy not true
I hope you noticed that when Matt the bassist, did his solo (black guy on the left), it was Scott, the one in the middle, who provided bass. You need live performance, guys?
> Aha live in Star Vista Singapore
> Pop spring 2016, a concert held in Japan, very nice sound mixing
> Hallelujah live during their Christmas special
> Or any of their Evolution videos (Michael Jackson, Evolution of Music, Ariana Grande, etc)
You have a lot to choose from
Great reaction. Thank You. Pentatonix only releases music that they can perform live. They take pride in that.
One more live suggestion for you- their 2016 Popspring Concert with 3 original songs "Cracked" "Can't Sleep Love" "Water" and also their "Evolution of Michael Jackson." It is definitely worth it!
czcams.com/video/7GMHqYxpnzk/video.html
Excellent concert! 💖
If you blokes would like to react to a truly stunning live performance of Pentatonix please check out their 2015 American music awards performance of the Star Wars medley. They are introduced by Harrison Ford and are backed by a full Symphony orchestra. They absolutely hold their own. This performance was good but it was disappointing that they had a drum Corps backing them. Kevin, The beat boxer is very good in a live performance. He may have been a bit under the weather that day. The same guy who hit the high note is Mitch Grassi. He has a countertenor. The tall blonde is Scott Hoying and he is a tenor/baritone and can fill in for the Bass singer (Matt Sallee) When he is singing a melody. Last but certainly not least is Kirsten Maldonado who is a mezzo soprano. Mitch actually has a greater vocal range than Kirsten, But she can certainly hold her own.
If you like LIVE performances, then you'll love to react to "Pentatonix - Aha! Singapore: The Star Vista." 😃
It's worth mentioning that singing live in an "open field" (meaning not in a closed venue) is extra demanding and challenging, for the sound technicians as well as the vocalists themselves, as the acoustics are completely different.
Pentatonix are simply masters of vocals and elevating emotions, everything they do they turn into music gold.
Happy you enjoyed them as much as every Pentaholic does. 😊
Concert, you say??! Well, their 2016 PopSpring performance in Japan is amazing!!! They perform a few of their originals from their first album of original music too. The only issue with Pentatonix and live performances is that you have to make sure that the balance in the microphones is good and that it's captured by the audio in the camera. There are tons of good live performances though. All of the "Evolution" videos are live too. These can show you why they're the kings and queen of the musical transition!!
THE must see live performance of Pentatonix is, hands down, Aha Live from Singapore.
I have seen a couple of your reviews of PTX (Pentatonix) and I get the impression you are looking for the altering and auto tuning of their preformation. I have seen reviewers do this before they realize what you hear in the videos is what you hear live. I have seen PTX live and the sound is very true with the limitation of the location. I saw them at a fairground and it was still very good.
PTX has the best collection of 4 singers and very talented beat boxer who play cello and sings some (saxophone too.) I am a 69 year old classic rock fan and love Image Dragons. I found PTX Hallelujah video in 2017 and fell down the PTX rabbit hole. The NBC network "The Sing Off" 2011 videos are online and you can see their start and growth. The Kirstie, Scott, and Mitch sing together in high school doing choir and musical theater. Avi was added at the sing off and Kevin joined the day before the audition. The trio all were 19 years old when the won.
You’ve hardly scratched the surface of the PTX rabbit hole. 3 Grammy’s so far….#1 Daft Punk Medley…..#2 Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy…..#3. Jolene with Dolly Parton.
If you want to see Mitch Grassi at his finest….The Prayer. He sings Celine Dion’s part!
Can’t overlook the video that has to date 721M views and started thousands of PTX fans down their rabbit hole.
Christmas is approaching and they have an extensive playbook of Christmas songs.
You need to react to their version of Amazing Grace!
For a really good look at them live, watch Popspring which is four songs (3originals and Michael Jackson Medley) from a concert. In person they are incredible.
I've been listening to them all day myself.
If you gonna do this you gotta do PTX - The Sugar Plum Fairy with the old bass, Avi.
Natural disaster (live concert), nature boy, bother are older songs and are awesome to watch and listen too from their concerts...they’re recorded from phones but are still worth a listen. Enjoy!
I read that Mitch has such a high voice due to his vocal cords are 2 inches shorter than normal. Said he was teased a lot as a child.😢 Look who's laughing now ❤
I highly recommend Mitch Grassi (the guy in red) "Your Power" ( Billie Eilish cover) with his music. His singing is angelic.
Thanks for this! Another vote for Popspring - any or all of the four songs they did :-) It's well-mic'd and, in my opinion, their best live on CZcams.
Have you checked out their Daft Punk? It was their first release and they won a Grammy for it. Mitch is sometimes considered a countertenor. Their version of Bohemian Rhapsody is also wonderful as is their newest release “The Prayer”
You should give a listen to some of the percussionists solo stuff to get even more insight if this group's broad talent. Kevin Olusola- Down (Marion Hill Cover)
Wow! I, too, could sit back and listen to that all day! Cheers
You can watch back to back to the hallelujah video and also their life performance on a Christmas special they sound exactly the same nothing is produced and all those instruments are coming from their mouth they’re just amazing please watch both
My favorite Pentatonix is the evolution of music, They did Jolene with Dolly Parton, and the dog days are over clip from the sing off.
Loved their version/covers of Daft Punk. Just check out Pentatonix Daft Punk and you will find it.
You all need to react to Aha, Singapore Star Vista if you like Mitch’s high voice and Avi’s (the bass in the Hallelujah’s video) bass notes. They are phenomenal!
Can you feel the love tonight, Pentatonix cover!
the one problem i have with this live performance are the bloody drums that Kimmel added in. Phooey - Kevin doesn't need 'em!
Loved to see this - not many people react to this one. I would love it if you guys did live Pentatonix reactions - subscribing!
Saw them in concert in 2019, they are amazing.
Mike, I was sitting here thinking the same thing! I could watch them all day, going to have to find a concert near St. Louis soon!
Without a doubt the finest singer in this group is Mitch (red suit) if you want to see him at his best watch his solo cover of Your Power. Scott (middle guy) is really versatile & as you say has great stage presence. The whole group is exceptionally talented. We are blessed to be able to share in it ☺️
If you want to hear some recent live, check out Pentatonix on the July 4th celebration "A Capitol Fourth" on PBS where they do "Seasons of Love" from the Musical "Rent". They have a back-up choir and on top of a building. It really showcases Kirstin in a way you don't hear very much. Hope you get a chance to listen to this one........... Some reactions have already popped up and I would enjoy watching yours.
The word I would use for Scott would be captivating.
I personally use "sexy AF". 😅
I just figure I’ll comment on this one too... You guys must watch the solo and solo loop wildcard winners for the GBB 2021. Absolutely revolutionary and shocking. I’m so emotional talking about this, because I know you guys’ll think they’re both super fucking cool. Can’t wait to see it even if it’s in a couple months, because you WILL get more requests for it.
Only thing I'm noticing is not production but location. They choose good locations like Sound of Silence was recorded in a metal building or warehouse so it enhanced the vocals. Like singing in the shower. They do a great job of recording in environments that enhance sound not so much production. Like Dadt Punk was recorded in a closet
Hallalujah live on their Christmas special
if you like live production check out the beatboxer Kevin Olusola solo stuff
Pentatonix aha Singapore live you won't regret it
Please please please do more pentatonix!!!
It sounds like there are two recordings of mic audio slightly offset, and it’s super hard to listen to for me. I think it may be a gain issue, because I can hear a lot of background static and shuffling. Maybe it’s just my phone or something, because I would think someone would have commented this before me, but I don’t think so. I hope you guys realized this and know how it happened, so it can never happen again.
Just realized how condescending that last sentence sounds, I didn’t mean it that way 😅.
It's not you. I had the same issue on my computer.
Me too
They have a live version of Hallelujah from a Christmas concert - czcams.com/video/haFHrfmfHbc/video.html that is awesome and shows their a capella talents as well as a live version of On New Years Day czcams.com/video/ukTGKGe1cHg/video.html that is also so good
Yes more please! Pentatonix has plenty of great live performances. Check out “Aha! Live Singapore the Star Vista” I can honestly guarantee you’ll ALL be blown away 💯
The best live performance video is their 2016 Popspring performance czcams.com/video/7GMHqYxpnzk/video.html . It was recorded by/for MTV so the audio and video is top notch. Added bonus it features three originals, 'Cracked', 'Can't Sleep Love', and 'Water' (led by Kirstin) along with a live version of their 'Evolution of Michael Jackson'.
Love the channel! Any chance we can expect Chappelles Show Charlie Murphy True Hollywood Stories soon?
Can't believe you guys have not done more Pentatonix....You have got to see Bohemian Rhapsody, Daft Punk and Evolution of Michael Jackson.
For insane arrangements you might want to check out - Pentatonix Evolution of Rhianna, Evolution of Ariana Grande, live mashups. They also do mashups of putting two songs together seamlessly to make them one. Examples: La La Latch, (Sam Smith/Naughty Boy/Disclosure) Save the World/Don’t you worry child. (Swedish House Mafia).
Pentatonix “bohemian rhapsody” reaction plz❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The group did a contest...Mitch can hit a higher note than Kirsten.
No he can‘t kirstie can hit whisle notes and mitch can do whistle notes too but not like kirstie. Search up pentatonix single ladies whistle notes you can see it there
Mitch sings higher than kirstie and dare I say better?! I hate to compare them cause they're all so amazing, but Mitch is special.
Actually, Kevin can get the highest
@@jessicathomas9935 not really, ik they said in few interview but they were joking, especially nowadays that mitch voice go much higher
@@dieamy327 lol just listen to this part 5:27 when kirstin sing Mitch taking high harmony part he sing the most high part another example 6:08
i would wholly recommend "popspring" 3 original songs and their "evolution of Michael Jackson" the sound is perfect and they sound amazing
more key and peele soon?
I would suggest their video covers of Bohemian Rhapsody and Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies (short and no beatboxing). They are both phenomenal, but production factor might be a spoiler for one of you. so maybe you can find live versions. Well worth the hunt.
I'm a bit confused I thought they only used their voices except I see people drumming?? I don't understand and I absolutely love them!!
I doubt it was their choice to add that.. they’ve never done that with the sound of silence. It was jimmy kimmel’s show so i’m guessing he added that.
I would absolutely love to hear you reaction to their Gold (Kiiara cover). It’s absolutely brilliant!
The guy in the red is Mitch, and yes he's a countertenor, and he can go higher than Kirsten. If you want another live where you can hear his abilities try Aha Shanghai star vista.
They do recorded versions,as if it were live
If you want an a capella group with no production, you want voctave. Try the disney princess medley.
You really should go check out Mitch Glassi's (aka the guy in red) new cover of Your Power. It is amazing and you won't have to wonder about his high notes any more. He laid all the tracks for it from playing the piano to singing.
i love your react guys. ty so much. please does anyone know the name of the bearded daddy sitting on the right? does he have facebook or twitter?
when matt the bass is singing scott the guy in the middle takes over the bass
I’m going to say please please react to Pentatonix upgrade of “gold”. But first you have to listen to the original to appreciate how great the upgrade is! 👏🏻 It’s impressive either way but I feel like more so if you hear the original first!
They have a live version of their original "Love Again" which is amazing! All off-mic except for Kevin(the beat boxer)
czcams.com/video/GyRiez6UKAI/video.html
" I could watch them all day!!" Absolutely! Please check out Mitch Grassi's { in red suit here} hauntingly beautiful cover of the Billie Eilish song "Your Power"!
React to Hallelujah music video. Then react to the live version afterwards.
It's definitely the dude in the red. Mitch is unreal.
Somebody else mentioned it, but if you want a good live performance by them, look for "'Aha!' Live, Singapore, Star Vista". The phone audio isn't amazing, and Avi's low note has blown the venue's speaker a bit, but it's ALL worth it for the performance. Avi is amazing in it, and Mitch is just transcendent. He drank something like three Red Bulls before the performance because he was jetlagged to all hell, and I think he was having an out of body experience at that point. 🤣
Idk where y’all from but I’m trying to get flewed out🥰
💀
Just a note to y’all about your links to your other channels. They don’t work and I think it’s because you’re not using all lowercase. I believe the CZcams function to bring up links is case sensitive.
Please react to Can you feel the love tonight cover by Pentatonix 🙏🙏🙏
Something weird was going on with the sound on this one, to the point that I had to mess with the playback speed. Some speeds helped better than others but none fixed the problem. Weirdly, it didn't effect the audio of the Pentatonix video you reviewed. For some reason Mike sounded the best and was the most understandable on any speed selection. To understand the others I had to struggle with selecting different speeds throughout the video.
Definitely their live version of Hallelujah, but I would do the mv first so you have a good basis of comparison ❤️
"AHA" for Mitches VERY high notes. It's live.
If you want to see them live with amazing acoustics check out their cover of Silent Night
If you truly want to see the difference, compare Hallelujah and the live Christmas version or Compare Bohemian Rapsody and the live version.
I almost didnt watch this whole reaction, I did have to take off my headset...one off probably but the echo, holy crud.
You need to hear Voiceplay and Geoff Castilluchi
Thanks for this...my day is completely better because of this amazing rendition of an amazing song...and I came across Paul Chowdrey working a crowd just before and laughed so hard it hurt (nicely)...thanks guys and check out Paul working crows for some amazing stuff...more amazing than the blokes??? Nah, mate...on way!!!
You should see the daft punk private performance live , no mics , in a room for VIP ticket holders
Definitely listen to The Evolution of Ariana Grande or Gold. Unbelievable stripped down videos that will make you go 😵. Love your reactions and your accents. 🇺🇸
I love all versions of this song but to me Paul Simon at ground zero is the best....because of the emotion.
Please react to Imagine, Can You Feel the Love Tonight, Hallelujah, Bohemian Rhapsody
Please do Hallelujah by PTX, the live version
Love the version they did for their Christmas show live.
Hey guysss love your reaction 💞. When you have time you guys should check out
Dimash~sos Slavic bazaar!. He’s gonna blow your minds🍾.
What's with the reverb on your voices?
Listen to hallelujah it’s like angels are singing and add the three people that are in the middle of this video are all from Texas United States and then if you want to hallelujah and the guy on your left it is not in the group yet it’s someone else is called Abby the guy in the middle of Scott the girl is Kiersten the little boy the little guy he’s not a boy he’s a guy is Mitch and then Kevin is the beat boxer
Ptx never record a song that they can't also do live.
Myles Kennedy Mike :)
I thought they already did this 1?
First😘👏
You guys should react to draft punk
Who are the 20 people who gave this a thumbs down?
