The original song is majority autotuned. Mitch is like “i got this!!!!” They are so talented

To truly appreciate their arrangement of this song, you have to listen to the original. The octave jumps Mitch does vocally where all done electronically in the original. Not dissing the original artist since that's her style, but this is just so much better. The way Avi and Kevin echo the computerized background is unreal. Kirstie and Scott more than make up for all the missing computer backgrounds.

Also notice this one of there "live" recordings. They did not do this in the studio and lip sync, they sang it straight without edits. They are perfectionists.

I think one of the BIGGEST overlooked things in the PTX universe is the work. These artist put in the work. They don't just accept good. They write, they rewrite, they listen, then tweek and since they love each other without any Divas they critique each other until the end product is simply perfection. Like a sports team that has played together for years and they just know each others moves, this is what you get after YEARS of work and dedication. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

It’s amazing what the human voice can do. They make it seem so easy. Mitch his voice is unbelievable.

Ben Bram is the 6th member of PTX. He is the one that does all of these arrangements usually with Kevin first then the rest of them. He deserves major props for these too. He's the invisible member of the group. They call themselves choir nerds.

Not sure there is another group of friends that could get together and do this, but let me know if you find them and I’ll come to the party! 😀I hadn’t heard the original before hearing this (I’m old, they are actually my introduction to most popular music) but I was disappointed when I looked up the original and watched it, it couldn’t hold a candle to this amazing performance.

Trust me, it's pretty damn fun watching them in a sold out stadium of 20,000+ fans! They spin gold wherever and whenever they open their mouths -- and yet they're all so damn humble and laid back!

I love the way you respect the talent of this group. It makes me sad when their fans get side tracked on all the personal life stuff. These people are pure talent and should be listened to and appreciated. Never lose sight of the undesirable talent of the group and the individual abilities that each one brings to the table.

I love how their body language adds a huge dimension to build their performances.

This blew me away, in such a relaxed manner. I didn't know the mix was possible. Peace and bright blessings.

It’s funny when you were talking about how they could be in a cigar lounge etc I instantly thought of their cover of ‘Havana’, it has such a chilled laid back vibe, if you haven’t reacted to that yet I HIGHLY suggest it 😁 This is one of my favourites, everything about it is amazing and it’s absolutely better than the original which is highly enhanced and Kiiara can’t do the chorus live without looping. This video really shows off how in tune with each other they are and it’s mind blowing 🤩

I love playing this while I drink a glass of Baileys( well maybe 2 glasses). I also blast the volume up. It’s amazing how much house work gets done. Not really, my husband does the house work.....one of my favorite songs from them. Hope you stay on the PTX train. Also, Their new album comes out tomorrow.....great reaction my friend.....Judy D.

Another one they do so simply, have fun and great harmonies is NO. Think you'd enjoy that.

I love your reactions. You see things others miss. You read between the lines or rather you hear between the lyrics.

I’ve been watching PTX since 2011. I’ve seen most the reactions to their videos that there are. This is the best reaction to this song ever. Subscribed.👍🏾

I'm sure you already know that they covered Twenty One Pilots' 'Ride'. Can't wait for you to react on that one 😉

So very happy for you-that you chose this one at this point in time - you deserved a laid back weave of velvet and satin

Always love your reactions. You, like the members of ptx, make the world a better place. ❤ from Texas.

I always love your comments about PTX they are so insightful. I love that no one else talks about them like you do. It makes your reactions so unique and I always look forward to them.

Elegantly simplistic...

You are the best PTX reactor! I like your reactions most. Keep going! 😉

I love the sound of Mitch's voice in this song. I think I heard another reactor/musician call it a vocal chop? Anyway, it's heavenly. And how the 3 do that part near the end, aaaahhhh, it's just so insane! Also, I'm thinking the only way any of us could have friends like this is to have these 5 amazing people (well, 6 if you count Matt and Avi) sitting in your living room!! No one else comes close!

Hahaha.....Just loved your first pause....."Oh my friends sux...they can't do any of this" haha....I also agree with the way they are layering their harmonies....Using my new headphones I usually end up picking myself up off the floor with Avi's gorgeous smooth bass....it just melts me...Kevin is so slick...what a magician. Love it when you can see all of them doing 'their' thing. Kirstie also gave amazing support ....One of your best reactions my friend. Hi from Australia

They don't covers.... They do upgrades!

I love your dancing!!!

Fil, I will go that party when you find it! The Lounge days are sadly gone. 😔 Those of us who became Adults in the 80's had the best of everything. AWESOME MUSIC, AWESOME CLUBS, AWESOME PARTIES!!

Fantastic 😊..! Great reaction Fil.. thanks for the laughs and smiles..

Superfruit mitch and Scott music video how are you feeling? So much fun.

I glad you love this one as much as all of us do 🥰 You have plenary of friends with swag - they are called subscribers 😉🇨🇦

Wow ! And this wow is for you Phil !😍

Great reaction. Thanks. I love this PTX video. I especially love when Mitch, Kirstie and Scott each sings a word or two and then the next one sings a word or two, etc, near the end of the song. So cool how they can do that.

They totally made this one better. It's one of my absolute favorites. It's over too soon, right? Them in a small lounge ... I'd probably empty the bank for that.

Enjoyed your reaction….you enjoyed this as much as I did.

Lol, I've never enjoyed credits so much...Agreed! XD Loved that vocal mix section - and they made it look like it was no biggie, just a normal jam session with with the crew. ^_^

I need friends like that too. Heck yeah! I can't sing for damn. Even my husband tells me to stop.

I love your enthusiasm! Please do more Pentatonix reactions!!

Have you reacted to any of Superfruit’s music? (Scott and Mitch’s side project). Some recommendations of those... RISE, Beyoncé Medley, Empire Medley and their Hip Hop goes Broadway (1&2). They are so good! The last one will have you laughing and it really shows not only their voices but their funny personalities. ☺️

You've done it again Fil - I love watching you being genuinely and persistently blown away by these super talented people. I just love your reactions and sit avidly waiting for the next one - keep em coming my friend :)

I love the way you highlight different aspects of what they are doing. I am learning things I never knew I didn't know. LOL

Yes! So happy you reacted to this!! 🥰

So love them absolutely incredible ...just amazing..all so talented ..perfect harmonies...fi you make me smile an happy always thanku so much love and god bless x

I like this better than Kiiara's electronic voice, just my opinion. Mitch really has this. Thank you for choosing this one. Fun to listen to. Beautiful reaction !

This song is done so well! I love Avi and steady groove and Kevin's steady beat ... that's really difficult to stay on top of without missing a note. I have been not commenting a lot, but still watching all your pentatonix and Skillet reviews, most of the time have it on and re-watching/listening several times over!

One of my favorites of theirs. Thanks for the reaction.

Came here for pentatonix....staying because you are awesome. Keep it up.

Loved your reaction. They make forget there are no instruments!

Thanks for making my morning! They are incredible....love watching your reactions and your true love of music and breaking things down - thanks for what you do!

Enjoy your purple cocktail🍹

Problem: too many brain stimulants, phones, computers, vids, technology Solution: PTX, plain and simple, brings you back to the basics and it works

My favorite. Highlights their talent. MITCH...queen!

Love your comparisons.... Class!

Your reactions are always fun, funny, and bang on point especially when it comes to PTX. You need to react to my favorite member, Kevin KO Olusola, that man is a beast! He speaks 5 languages, one of them fluent in Chinese Mandarin. He's Classically trained from the age of 5 in Piano, Sax and Cello. He preformed as a soloist at Carnegie Hall twice, 1st time with the Sax, 17yrs old and 2nd time on the Cello 18yrs old. He was accepted into Yale at 17 and was finished Pre-Med by the time he joined PTX in 2011 at the age of 21. He is a musical and academic prodigy!! Here are some of the live studio songs he creates in his home studio, singing, playing and using a loop machine, producing the entire song instantly on his own. Here's the link to Kevin's cover of "Down" by Marian Hill kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f62ampRqmM6Yf58.html And my other fav is Kevin's remake of "Sign of the Times" by Harry Styles kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nqh2n8t9qrubpYk.html You will blow your mind watching these. trust me and enjoy. I know I'll enjoy seeing you react to them. Thank You & Peace.

I need new friends.... HAHAHA!! That was SO funny! We all wish we were friends with PTX!

Very very good! Очень very well! :-) :-) :-) Thanks Fil!

Sigh...such an amazing cover by them. Great reaction as always ❤️ new album AND video out tomorrow...it's a good time to be a PTX fan 👍 ☕🛌

Look up, Pentatonix in the airport(should be Thrift Shop)...you’ll love it. Impromptu concert over airport speakers with a simple phone recording, all on one mic

Your reactions to PTX are so fun! "I need better friends..." LOLOL. Me too!

6:45am and snowing in Lacey Wa USA and I wake up to this...Thank you Fil! Your dancing is cool!

Awesome reaction as always

morning booboo lu, great reaction to them, I so like this remake by them than the original, well my friends suck to lol, love seeing U getting down with the tune. have a fricking great day

About fell out of my chair, my friends suck, too, lol. Thanks for this! Have an awesome day :-)

I LOVED your reactions!!!😍👍

Fabulous!

I think we should just concentrate on getting the best liquor. 🤣😁😎

Nice comparsion "They build one layer, and the next layer like Lego stones"

how did I miss this when it came out? I always watch for your reactions, and I'm just now seeing this one ? #what? 🎶🔥🙌🏻

Great reaction! That was so much fun 😄

Good morning! Great reaction! Just in case you don’t already know and are curious, Tyler Joseph’s brother Jay Joseph released his first song, “Gundabad” last night.

Yes, they definitely are cooler than my friends. Lol. And they look so laid back, chilled. Lol. Oh well! 🤗

Always love your Pentatonix reactions 😁😁❤️

Seriously fucking awesome reaction. Cheers, man.

I’m SO HAPPY I asked you, begged you, to react to this!!!! Knew you’d love it. 😍 Thank you so much Fil!! 💖

Hey Fil, I would love to hear your take on Pentatonix covering Over The Rainbow or Run To You. I think their version of Over The Rainbow is the best I've ever heard. Thanks

I love your reactions, you make me laugh 😁😊 (in a good way)

Another fantastic react by you with superb comments and observations. Combining that with your new approach to managing the screens makes you at the very top of reactors! Can't wait to see a Dimash react in the new format!

That random moment when PTX makes you wish for new friends coz of their casual awesomeness 😂

Fil - 2022 resolution start your own new friend group similar to one these folks attended years ago - see Pentaonix, Scott Hoying or Avi Kaplan "Spaulding Session" videos :) Seriously, get your purple drink and visit kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iMBzppygyNjDoYE.html "Birthed in a humble apartment in West Hollywood, The Spaulding Sessions was originally created as a casual gathering of friends who sang for each other in an evening of music. Six months later, this group of musicians continue to play their monthly house concerts as well as public shows they book themselves which draw upwards of 75 people. What's truly impressive, however, is that Spaulding performers come from all walks of life. Some are attending school around LA, some have full-time non-performing jobs in the industry, and others are working musicians who take time out of their recording sessions, gigs, and tours to drop by a Spaulding Session. No matter what size the room, how famous the venue, the charm of Spaulding Sessions remains the same - that low-key atmosphere first shared amongst friends, huddled in a community to support each other's art."

Pentatonix - Gold (Kiiara Cover) ..... In Gold Liquid, to coat the vocal cords, to coat the heart, building the old bricks, the gold bricks for that wealth inside you. That gold standard we mad for, the Pentatonix rapport, the golden voices, the sovereign wealth inside you, nuggets too many to count, the Pentatonix account, the bullion pronounced, the doubloon coins, wealth in you, the caratage is twenty four, the Pentatonix score, plated in metres lore, pieces of eight stamped within you. Hallmarked in identity, the Pentatonix heart of serenity, voices experimentally such intensity growing within you, purity sounds living in space, the Pentatonix place, a wholesome grace, it’s time to embrace the wealth within you. #QCUMBERSQUAD #Pentatonix - Fil, I’m off back to the study.

Fable!!! They just released Coffee in Bed! SO GOOD!!

I love this song! I just watched their new video... Coffee in Bed just premiered! I'm on the fence on their new music! I miss Avi 😔 and the way they were. I will still love them though. Love watching your reactions! 👍😜

i loved your dancing...

I laughed so hard.. I need new friends, no one of my friends can do that! 😁Your reaction is on point as always, thanks! 👍💕

You mentioned them singing in a nightclub or similar setting. If you look up "Pentatonix at Barney's party last night" you will see something like you described. I wanted to be there.

This is SO much better than the original that I'm doing everything in my power to forget that the original ever existed!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

OMG you will love COLOGNE (Clean Bandit cover) off their AT HOME EP in 2020!! "When I walk into the club and my feet start to rub.. Everybody thinks I'm weird but the truth is I'm not.."

Супер

I would totally sit and have a few drinks in that lounge!!

Love you brother

😂😂 my friends were like this in high school. 😂😂😂

Loved your reaction. They make forget there are instruments!

love this reaction sm 😃

Then I truly believe you are going to love The Lucky Ones album......they have basically said it is putting their emotions on tracks. They are talking about their fears, trails and how their love as a group has gotten then trough the last 10 years.

500 to go Peeps..🤪😜🥰🥰😁😁

I would totally do a house party with people to make music....but house parties haven't been happening here for a year now. Remember when we thought a 3-week lockdown would make it all better? /sigh

Another Mitch favorite. *Sigh*

As much as i love PTX, i need to recommend you check out some other a cappella groups. Voiceplay (Carry on Wayward Son), Home Free (Man of Constant Sorrow), and Voctave (anything on their playlists)...they all have wonderful and extensive rabbit holes to fall down.

I know I know, you must be sick of me asking you to do it, but you HAVE TO. I promise you will NOT regret it. You will regret putting it off. AHA Singapore live performance and .. if you like friends sitting chilling and mashing music , then the mash up of New Rules and Are You That Somebody.. IS THE ONE FOR YOU. can't wait for you to do them. :)
