I saw another Pentaholic (sorry, I can't remember who or I would give them credit) who described this as "a song without words performed by a group without instruments". Perfect description.

This was their SECOND Grammy. They won Grammys for musical arrangements for this and “Daft Punk Medley”. They won a third Grammy for the cover of “Jolene” they did with Dolly Parton herself. That Grammy was for the vocal performance!

Ben Bram, the ‘6th member’ of the group deserves sooooooo much recognition for his work in editing and arranging. My husband is a commercial producer, so I’m also aware of all the work those edits are. And it’s flawless. (I paused on your video break to read it - thanks! Made me smile).

Absolutely love your facial expressions! ‘Brain Meltdown in 3..2..1!!!’ Thank you for your feedback and the giggles! Another one I enjoyed a lot is Coldest Winter

My favourite part in your reactions to Pentatonix is when you laugh like meaning " this is incredible"!

Recording industry: you can't do a song with no words or instruments PTX: hold my beer while I pick up my Grammy But let us not forget their live version of Silent Night, too.

Another one of Avi's "I won't blink no matter how much you try to make me" videos!

BEST reaction I've seen in ages! I laughed out loud! 😂 Thank you for that! yeah.. Mitch "mean-mugged" us! Avi had a theatrical gift for going what I call "Darkside" and this was the first time Mitch gave it a try! The first time I watched this video I was in bed all relaxed and ready to go to sleep and thought it would be nice to watch a new video by Pentatonix that was a nice, classical piece. When Mitch shot forward with that high note and his mouth in the sneer right in my face I dropped my tablet and literally started scrambling backwards as fast as I could but the wall was in my way! lol I'm surprised that the editor didn't win something for the editing on this video as well! Their first Arrangement /Music Video that got a Grammy was Daft Punk. Scott's friend, Ben Bram, recorded and edited Daft Punk and he won a Grammy for his editing and accepted it along with Pentatonix when they got their Grammy for the arrangement! Ben Bram is the person who told Scott he should get The Trio back together and add a bass and beatboxer, then audition for The Sing Off. That's where Pentatonix began and Ben has been with them since their formation. He is so talented!

those notes by mitch and avi are truly something but now you got to see their AHA Singapore Star Vista live concert. I think you're ready for it. It's a must see!

Oh my goodness, your faces!!! 🤣 Classic!! This was their second Grammy, for a capella arrangement. Their first, same category, was for Daft Punk.

Even Tchaikovsky would’ve been impressed! 😍😊🇬🇧

2015 Grammy - Daft Punk, Best Arrangement. 2016 Grammy - Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy, Best Arrangement. 2017 Grammy - Jolene with Dolly. I'm so excited for you to hear all their Christmas music.

That high note by Mitch was R-sharp.

Their 1st Grammy was for Daft Punk Their 2nd was for Sugar Plum Fairies Their 3rd was for Jolene with Dolly Pardon

Super cool reaction. Thanks!!!

Aren't they fabulous?! I love this. Thank you for watching this one ! The Grammy is so deserved. They are so special in all that they do. Tchaikovsky would have loved this ! Grammy for " Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A capella" I think the snarl was for the scene of the Toy soldiers fighting the rats in the ballet. Thank you again, I like your terrific reactions.

thank you for the reaction. always a fan

I don’t think I have enjoyed any other reaction from other reactors more than yours! You are a pure delight and hope you continue your journey with Pentatonix!!! Merry Christmas 🎁🎄

The highs and lows of Pentatonix!

Dude. Perfect reaction! I always love it when people view this for the first time. And what better time than December (sorry, late to the game for viewing this) Lovez It!!!

So, PTX took on a classical song with no lyrics and no music and won a Grammy!?!?. Just unbelievable!. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So, fair to say we didn't oversell this one? lol....

Have you heard "Home" and "Sing" by Pentatonix? "Home" was shot in their homes during the pandemic and "Sing" is and old song, but is original music.

O come all ye faithful

Well, now that you mention it... I really like the way your editing is evolving, especially the sweet messages in the pauses!

MerrY CHRISTMAS! ♥♡♥

Avi's blank stare cracked me up in this.

AVIII IS SO AMAZING ❤

Sweet. I LOVE YOU deer bro ♥♥♥

Here for your reaction to Avi’s airplane dive, and you did not disappoint! Great reaction; thanks for sharing it with us!

I am enjoying your Pentatonix journey. When you get thru the holidays, it would be worth it to go back and cover their SingOff journey to see them as they formed and grew into their sound and arrangements. 12 performances that explain more than we probably ever could. Not sure if I've seen you react to this, but if you haven't, it's worth a look see: Home Free's version of "Do You Hear What I Hear?" filmed in an ice castle. Also, they do a wonderful rendition of "Auld Lang Syne" for New Year's...

Their video for Royals had a similar conceit, where they were positioned in a vertical line with Mitch in front (as he had the lead), and as each member had a part to sing/perform, they would step to the side into formation, then back into "hiding" in line when they weren't singing. When the holidays are over, you should check it out as it's pretty great.

Again, wow. Just wow. 1) Someone had to come up with the concept or vision for this video to start. 2-6) Then each person had to learn their audio and performance part, then 7) the camera operator captures it. Finally the 8) video (and audio?) editors get to work to assemble the package. The fans get to enjoy the ensemble's work.

They still have that effect on us haha.... I usually come away feeling sooooo much more inadequate than the time before each time I watch it ! 😁

Now time to enjoy the live performance of Silent Night.

You should do their cover of "O, Come All Ye Faithful" you'll love it!!

Love your PTX reactions! You are my favorite reactor ❣️

1st Grammy was for Daft Punk. This is the 2nd one. If I remember correctly (a rare occasion these days) the 3rd was for Jolene.

Second Grammy actually. Thanks for the reaction.

Great reaction to amazing vocals, thanks to Tchaikovsky and the arrangers. For another amazing performance of vocals without words (most of the time) please try the "Great movie medley" by Voctave (really a celebration of the composer John Williams).

Thanks for your reaction, love it! I'm sorry but when I saw "Brain Meltdown in..." and the countdown I started watching your face intently cause I knew what was coming. Your reaction was priceless! I started laughing uncontrollably. Great reaction.

Once upon a december from their new album is my absolute favorite. Crying every time!! Is from the movie Anastasia🥰

lmao watching your face! Thank You!

I did pause..... and I did take time to tell someone I loved them today. Thank you for the reminder, and for this reaction - great, as always :)

Have you done God rest ye merry gentleman yet? It's really good and was featured in the newest Grinch movie!

The Grammy was for best arrangement, instrumental or a cappella

This is an instrumental tale of intrigue and and treachery performed by a vocal group without lyrics, or instruments and I've thought it was genius since it came out. Just a brilliant concept even if you don't consider the excellent arrangement and voices. And wasn't that bass bomb a lovely note? Yeah, the Grammy Awards added a new category for Ah Capella because it's getting so popular though this award was for Musical Arrangement. This isn't your grandma's barber shop stuff.

When you listen to Avi in this you can truly see his training as a cantor.

Grammy Awards: 2015 Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella - Daft Punk 2016 Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella - Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy 2017 Best Country Duo/Group Performance - Jolene (Featuring Dolly Parton)

Their 1st Grammy was for best arrangement a capella on Daft Punk in 2014. I believe their 2nd Grammy was for the same category the next year for Dance of the Sugar Plum Dairy.

Great reaction! - new sub! The Grammy was for arrangement. You might enjoy one of their other Grammy winners - Jolene with Dolly Parton. It's great. See you in the next one.

With PTX is "neverending talent" isn't it? You never know how you'll be surprised, but with them you know you will somewhere in EVERY song I suggest you to listen (even consider reacting) to "Waltz Of The Flowers". Sooo underrated but so enjoying to listen to. Another underrated one is "The Greatest Showman"... maybe you'll consider to react to those ;D See you in the next one

The Grammy they won for "Dance" was for Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella (apparently a cappella had never been part of that category until that year, can't imagine why...). Here's a link to Ben Bram accepting the award, as PTX was rehearsing at another venue. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gtWArdCDmL-1eZ8.html

Most joyful reaction as always! Merrily heading for a joyful Xmas, hopefully through your PTX Xmas songs journey !

Love your pause break graphics!! The one on your reaction to The Grinch was cute too :)

great reaction. thank you. and through out not a word was spoken... their talents have no limits. Happy Holidays.

I've been really looking forward to this one - and you didn't disappoint. Happy to become a Patron. :-)

They did one similar to this called Waltz of the Flowers.

Tchaikovsky says "Here is an arrangement for an orchestra, we don't need any voices or lyrics to make a great Christmas song". Pentatonix says "Hold my eggnog". Just amazing. BTW, it was their 2nd Grammy (2015), the 1st was Daft Punk (2014). Both were for best arrangement. And incase you are wondering, the 3rd was for Jolene (2016) for best country duo.

New Video Thursday My Favorite Things.....can't wait for you to review it.

the editing is not so difficult, but very very kreativ. to synchronize the keyframes to switch the opacity, the scale and the position of the layers to the music is hard work...it works with adobe premiere pro...but.... it's perfectly done in this video.

I think this Grammy was for best instrumental arrangement

The thing about this video I like and what makes it special , is of course their performance, but how the song saves this video... If you dubbed over some heavy metal or punk or something in a minor key, how scary this video would look. All black, their serious faces, Mitches scowl, their outfits, especially Avi's, it all looks very Goth. I think you would greatly enjoy some of Home Free's, Voice Play, or Voctave's Christmas music as well. Yep giddy!

We TOLD you so! Hahaha

The first Grammy they won was for best arrangement , instrumental or acapella for both Daft Punk in 2015, Dance of the Sugar plum fairy in 2016 and in 2017 best country duo /group performance for Jolene w/ Dolly Parton.

Firstly, thanks! Will you react to Joy to the World? It's another great one. A non holiday song I'd love to see your reaction to is Run to You. An Avi solo song I'd also love to see you react to is Quarter Past Four. It's on his Avriel and the Sequoias album. Again, your face! That is so awesome haha! RSR after hearing the song (mouth agape): "...I can't...words..." Pentaholics: "We know, darlin'. We're there, too." 💖

The Grammy was for arranging it. They have said it was very difficult to arrange but easy to film. One said it told 30 minutes to film; another said it only took 10.

❤️ Avi = 🔥🔥🔥

Yeah!! Finally!!! Priceless reactions!!! By the way ... they just came out with a White Christmas featuring Bing Crosby!!!! Can’t wait to see see you watch it!!!!

Great song! And great reaction as usual!

I still get the goosies.

Yep, 2nd Grammy. First was Daft Punk. Still cool as heck.

Definitely Mitch slapped, by the entire group. Now you are ready for the ultimate Mitch slap of Mitch slaps. But please, wait until after the holidays, after you have been to see the dr, to make sure that you don't have any hidden medical conditions, and after you install a seat belt. Then, you will be quasi ready for Aha! Singapore star vista. It's a fan video, which really focuses on Avi and Mitch. You never see Kevin, but you can hear him. He's putting beyonce away during the beginning of the video.

an A Capella group...can we win another Grammy? Hold my first one!!!

First Grammy was Daft Punk. In arranging. This was 2nd. Jolene with Dolly was 3rd.

Second Grammy. First was for Daft Punk.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

2nd Grammy ☺️

If you look away you will surely miss something good! Your expressions were changing so fast, LOL. :D

Daft punk medley or Mary do you know by ptx

Here3 are the "words) for this music (expressed with the ballerina's feet): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f9JdhdaTvcvFfqs.html The daft Punk Medley is an epic job of editing, too.

Love PTX! Can you also react to VoicePlay's new video You're A Mean One Mr Grinch? It's such a fun video

Daft Punk was the 1st u think but both were for the arrangement

Hi Sir, could you react to, Marcus King Band "BEAUTIFUL STRANGER", Brothers Osborne "ALL NIGHT" video, Larry Fleet "WHERE I FIND GOD" Jack Ingram "LOVE YOU " video, Sturgill Simpson from the album Cuttin Grass "YOU CAN HAVE THE CROWN" Kendell Marvel "MUSTA KEPT IT FOR HIMSELF" TY for honest reactions

Not absurd. It's magic. I think they recorded it at Hogwarts. 🎆

Your music is louder than you are. Makes it hard to hear your voice.
