We were lucky enough to catch up with one of our favorite groups Pentatonix at the 2012 American Music Awards this past weekend.
They chatted all about the release of their Christmas album, which has risen to the top of the ITunes Christmas charts, and also performed their complete medley from the 2012 American Music Awards pre-show. It was a cappella awesomeness!!! The mash-up included Justin Bieber's 'As Long As You Love Me,' Taylor Swift's 'We Are Never Getting Back Together, Nicki Minaj's 'Starships,' Rihanna's 'Where Have You Been,' Fun.'s 'We Are Young,' Pink's 'Blow Me,' & Kelly Clarkson's 'Stronger.'

@michmirich 10 жыл бұрын

Hollywire should disable the comments on this video. There is no way that she could have captured all of their voices even if the mic was dead center. Not with the mic she had. And expecting her to bring a special mic or 3 or 5 just for the group is ridiculous and unreasonable. She did the best she could.

@samr1473 7 жыл бұрын

Mitch seemed annoyed when Chelsea was like "Ready, set go" to sing. Like girl, we start when we want and whenever we want.

@MiyuNyun 9 жыл бұрын

I'd only ask please, the next time keep the mic in the middle, because the audio got completely lost for us in video, as she put it closer to who were doing the leading parts, so most parts from Kevin and mainly Avi couldn't barely be heard.

Getting 5 people to perform on the spot in the middle of a crowd with one mic is hard to pull off. I thought you did great. Anyone who's watched Pentatonix videos will notice that the mic is always closest to Avi and Kevin (the drum and bass). Even without hearing them real well in this video, their 3 main vocalists sound amazing. That extra low end just rounds out the group perfectly.

+Sole'a Harmon the reason why they never ever cover Taylor's songs. They made it really clear few years back they just can't get it right no matter what, and they always end up ruining it. Not sure why they decided to throw some in this medley...nevertheless their respect for Taylor is commendable.
