Them singing "Mary did you know" was the first time I've ever been wowed speechless by music. Beyond incredible.

If you want to be smacked in the face with more amazing harmonies, check out their Mary Did You Know. I’m not even that fond of carols but that literally brings me to tears EVERY TIME. (yall are too nice 🥺 thx for the likes)

I also think it's worth noting that, yes, the bass singer can sing really low and it's so powerful and clean. But my dude is AAALLLLLL up and down the scale for that whole song. He's jumping almost an entire octave during the chorus back and forth, and that is SO HARD to do! So much respect.

Pentatonix is the closest humanity has come to the PERFECT combination of voices coming together to make music. Even when they change their line-up, they remain nearly perfect. It's like there's some music wizard that has magically brought these voices together. That sh*t doesn't just happen. There's some sorcery going on here.

if you're interested in more pentatonix, The sound of silence and can you feel the love tonight are my personal favourites 😊

Their ‘Mary did you know’ cover is spine-chillingly phenomenal

I'm really disappointed that Avi left the group. He is by far one of my favorite basses that I have ever heard (as a retired third bass myself. Lost my head voice in 2002 after a brain aneurysm. Not to mention that singing now gives me headaches). His bass line is so distinctive in this song and I love it.

i feel like a little kid showing their parent a picture they drew right now. im 15 and i have listened to pentatonix practically my whole life, and hallelujah has got to be my favorite song that they have sang, and to just watch you listen to it… just ugh. it makes me so happy. i constantly caught myself waiting for your reaction on an amazing part i knew was coming up. you just bring me so much joy, thank you

Pentatonix christmas songs are unmatched... the harmonies and mixing in God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Carol Of The Bells, Mary Did You Know, and Once Upon A December are actually insane

Fun Fact: Scott takes over the bass line when Avi is singing his verse.

"Mary did you know" is a really good song, however I HIGHLY recommend their "Imagine" rendition. It is my personal all time favorite and will absolutely make you cry. It's incredible.

The cry in mitch's voice when he says 'broken hallelujah' breaks my heart every time. Instant tears.

Avi’s low notes gives me such goosebumps every time!! it’s so sad that he’s no longer in the group

They filmed this on a southern California dry lake bed. In late summer when it was about 110 degrees. Bundled up because this was for a Christmas album. Now that's dedication.

The sound of silence with Pentatonix is something else. Makes me shiver and cry every time.

Yeah, you're gonna cry. My eyes misted over in the first 30 seconds of the first time I heard this. When they rise to that crescendo it takes my breath away. Every time. The words "resonance" and "depth" were well-chosen.

Whenever PTX hits the crescendo of any song, I cry. That wall of sound from their voices bores deeply into me. Since it's the Christmas season, I suggest reacting to their new release "The Prayer", or an old classic "O Come All Ye Faithful". Both well worth it.

Mitch's part always makes me cry. The emotion behind it is everything.

their cover of "the Sound of Silence" will turn ur brains into sea foam, its so beautiful

Beautiful arrangement of “Hallelujah.” The most spiritual thing for me is to hear perfect harmonization. It takes me to another level when it’s done well.

And immediately she starts on the harmonies. I love it. Plus this song is just too good for this world

This song brings me to tears every time. Kirsten on "marble arch" gives me chills each and every single time.

I chose this for my wife’s funeral, I cry every time I hear it. Beautiful song sung by amazing singers.

4:54 the way Kirstin builds, and builds, and builds to the end of her 'solo' is just fantastic.

This cover is amazing. Another one of their amazing covers is Bohemian Rhapsody, which shouldn’t be possible with a 5 person a cappella group let alone be one of the best covers of Bohemian Rhapsody ever.

“Mary did you know” next !!!!! A song that will ALWAYS give me chills and warm my soul

Probably my favorite part, after having watched/heard this a ton...is after the voice wall...and Kevin and Avi breaking it down....the combination of percussion and bass....they do this in quite a few....but just recognizing what they are doing is amazing.

I can listen to this 40 times a day and still get chills and cry.

“That’s Christmas to me” especially with the music video had my crying the first time I saw/heard it. Both emotionally and just because it was beautiful

This one and their cover of John Lennon’s “Imagine” break me literally every time.

This song is literal ear candy tbh, in the climax of the song (around 7 min), you can hear the harmonies and they are all belting so well. But my favorite part is listening for the layered bass on there. Avi has one of the best bass voices I've ever heard. His original music is so good. And Kevin, geez, he is so talented, in Pentatonix's cover of Radioactive, he is soooo good. Scott, I can't with him, trying to keep up with his runs is very difficult, and Kristin, such a lovely range, and cant get enough of her voice. And Mitch as well, his voice has got some umph to it but also is so beautiful in a softer setting. I love all of their older stuff. I make playlists for a couple yoga teachers and they specifically ask for this song at the end and it is perfect. Overall Pentatonix is an amazing group and I totally recommend a reaction video to sound of silence

Yes. I feel music. Avis bass is so grounding and how Scott carries them like a leader. I love all of them.

I HIGHLY recommend listening to Pentatonix singing "Amazing Grace." It's an experience 😭❤

You definitely need to react to their "Mary, did you know" and their rendition of "The Prayer" 🥰❤️

I actually heard this song watching an episode of Jersey Shore where Mike and Lauren find out that they are having a baby and it sounded so good that I had to find out who sings it. Never heard of Pentatonix before but they made me love this song, a song that I never thought I would care for. So beautiful. Another song was Amazing Grace. I mean WOW! Mind blown...

I would definitely recommend anything by Pentatonix, but their "Daft Punk Remix" and "Love Again" are two of my favorites. The Daft Punk Remix got them their first grammy...shot in a closet with a $400 budget no less. Worth checking out. I also see a few things from Glee on here. Did you ever react to "Marry the Night" on Glee with Adam Lambert? It's incredible!! Home Free "Man of Constant Sorrow" and "Butts Remix" will also get those harmony tears rolling. Think Pentatonix, but a little bit country. Lastly, I'd like to suggest Teddy Swims. "I can't make you love me if you don't" is a good place to start...then just fall down the rabbit hole with the rest of the world.

All of the recommendations people are making are great. I would personally recommend The Sound of Silence, Mary Did you Know, The Prayer, or Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone). But really everything they do is amazing.

There is a live version of this from a Christmas Special that they did that shows that they can reproduce their sound on stage in front of an audience. It's great. And for an...erm...AMAZING song, check out "Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)". Matt had taken over for Avi on Bass by that one, but it will definitely bring you to tears.

This gives me chills every time, especially the part where the camerawork gets even more dynamic.

I love this version of Hallelujah, and with the added harmonies it brings such depth and soul. I see you're just like me whenever I hear a song done well with good technique and supported by an internal passion, it'll always draw tears to my eyes! I also love Lucy Thomas version of this song, very touching!

I also highly highly recommend that you listen and react to “Little Drummer Boy” by Pentatonix also they do an amazing “Mary did you know” cover

I watch this vid of pentatonix regularly and it never gets old! It’s sooo good

My first reaction to their Hallelujah was the same. I ended up crying and still do every time I listen to it. All effortless, amazing. Avi Kaplan's deep voice is so natural and powerful. They all are incredible. Their blend is flawless.

Their video has 671 million views now, I'd say 650 million of those are me. I love your reaction because I feel the same way. As soon as the harmonies kick in, I feel it in my bones and in my soul. I'm not religious at all, I have no connection to this particular song, but THIS VERSION makes me cry every. single. time. I hear it. Great reaction.

There is a live version of them singing hallelujah on youtube and it is literally just as amazing as the recorded version

Can we just talk about how perfect Hannah is?!🥺 Does the queen say hi?🙏🏼 I was having a really bad day until you posted, so thank you for making my day better❤️🥺

They sing so PURE, They mix sounds so well . LOVE them Thank you for reaction

One of the things that amazes me the most is the fact that they don't use any instruments other then their voices and bodies. They are by far one of my favorite bands of all times and I absolutely live Mitch's voice. It is so pure.

My grandmother and I would listen to this everyday on the way to her cancer clinic treatments. She passed in April and I was missing her so fiercely today. Wondering if wherever she is maybe she is thinking of me too. THEN you post a reaction video to a video from 5 years ago. I don't know if that means anything but I'm sobbing in a good way I think. Thank you

Their original song “That’s Christmas to Me” is amazing!!!

literally when i listen to this, i get full body chills. i love how each part has their shining moments and they each stand out in different parts of the song. they sound INCREADIBLR

I'm with you. I FEEL music in my core. And I love Pentatonix. Their beautiful harmonies and textures are where it's at.

Aside from all their xmas songs, I HIGHLY recommend "the sound of silence" cover by Pentatonix. It will melt your face it is so amazing

I would absolutely love to see you react to their rendition of "Imagine" by John Lennon. I cry every time, it's so beautiful

I have listened to this song probably thousands of times at this point and it gets me in the feels every single time. I also feel music deeply, especially harmonies like this. I also cry, and cried along with you watching this.

Yes, I 100% feel the same way. Vocal music in particular (and especially Pentatonix) really pull at my heart, and the first time I heard their version of Hallelujah I definitely cried. Absolute magic!

The Ha-ah-ah-ah-lelujah after Kirstin’s verse gets me every time. Also Avi. Avi!! His voice is so gorgeous in this. I hope when they finished their arrangement for this they looked at each other and said, “This is magic,” because it is.

This was their best performance until they released The Prayer. THAT is one of the best things I've ever heard.

I LOVE Pentatonix. Goosebumps every time

Love your reaction Hannah 😊 I completely get the crying. Its an emotional overload and gets you right to the core. Its so beautiful - it lifts you. I just love it. The first time I heard this version , I was blubbering 💜

I honestly think this is their best cover, it just has this way of capturing the viewers full attention and resonating with their emotions in a way no other song has before

Omg where to begin! You’ve probably heard or seen some of them, but The Prayer, Bohemian Rhapsody, the sound of silence. Honestly anything of theirs is just incredible. Love your videos Hannah!

I absolutely love Pentatonix. They’re just amazing . I would love to have a vocal range like that.

The first time I heard Pentatonix, years ago, sing anything, I cried. I am not ashamed of tearing up for a beautiful blending of voices. I love four part harmony and choir singing and such. I think one of the best I heard was the Statler Brothers doing a song called Bed of Roses. I also am a huge fan of The Oak Ridge Boys doing American Made and a few others of theirs as well. I love the blending of the harmonies in the Beach Boys Kokomo. I am a deep Baritone and can hit bass if I try, but I can also hit a full on middle tenor if I want to. I cannot go from one extreme to the other without sliding there, but I can do moderation within a particular vocal range with ease. These guys (and gal), are superb at it. I have heard practically every major release from Pentatonix since I first heard them. They are the most incredible blend of disparate vocals melded together into a pleasing whole I think I have ever heard. And just to establish my range, I can do all four parts of Elvira if I must, and I can fill any of the four that a group is missing. I feel most comfortable with the baritone, but can do any of the other three as well.

I think Mitch's vocal range is really spotlighted in "The Prayer" that they just release a little while ago. It is with their new bass singer, Matt. Avi, the former bass and second soloist in "Halleluhah" left the group amicably to go on to do other things and is still releasing music. Scott (the first soloist) will take up the bass line when the bass singer has a solo, as you heard in this arrangement. This track always gives me goosebumps, as does "Sound of Silence". Christmas is definitely their best genre, but they've rarely had a "dud" with any of their covers or original pieces. If you want to hear them individually, Scott and Mitch make up "Superfruit", and Avi, Kristin, and Kevin all have solo work. Kevin is also a celloist (cellist?). Their collaboration with Lindsey Stirling on Radioactive is very good, as is their recent collab "Over the River" is a treat.

Their rendition of 'Amazing Grace' is unparalleled..... by far it is their most emotionally empactful work yet....and the setting for the video is unreal.

Hannah. this song brings me to tears EVERY time I hear it.....and that's probably over 100 times. I too feel music deeply inside and this group can evoke that feeling on almost every song and even listening/watching their rehearsals. Incredible!

I cry every time I hear their harmonies and the soulful voices. I cant even find words and I have been singing since I was a wee girl. They are PERFECT

I have lost count of how many times I have watched this over the last 5 years and I cry every single time 🥺 Avi’s base is out of this world and I feel it through my body- and Kristin and Mitch are just in a league of their own. Add in Scott and Kevin”s beat boxing and I’m a complete mess 🤣

I feel music deeply as well. I’ve heard their version of this song a hundred times before, and I get goosebumps every time

Just caught your reaction, and I'm with you. I choke up, and am moved almost to tears by amazing vocals. Love Pentatonix! Thanks for the video.

One of the most powerful renditions of any song that I've ever heard. So, so good.

I've listened to this song by many singers, including this version hundreds of times. Tears every single time. It's simply the most beautiful song in human history. And this is the best cover I've come across.

Hannah, pleeaaaase react to their new cover of The Prayer. It's the perfect song for singers/coaches to do because it is such a flex... they all belt at ranges we really haven't heard much from them before (Mitch belting C5s! Scott going full-on baritone!) I'm pretty sure I already filled out your form for it when it came out at the end of October.

This song gives me goose bumps EVERY TIME! 💜 It just makes my soul feel good.

There are certain songs and performances which go beyond art. These unique events enter the human experience in such a way they can't be explained sufficiently through any amount of words. Pentatonix' Hallelujah overwhelmed my soul. Happiness, sadness, love, heartbreak, awe and worship filled my very being until my eyes overflowed, my heart became a puddled mess and my mouth made audible gasps. Thank you.

I'm right there with you Hannah. Harmonies KILLLLLLL me. I've never gotten through this song without crying, and I've listened to it countless times. It's one of the GOATS from Pentatonix. And yes, please please please do more Pentatonix reactions!

Honestly I don’t know why I haven’t seen this in the comments, but “Carol of the Bells” is SUCH an awesome PTX song! And also I relate very much to the “feeling music deeply” part you talked about :)

Yes that song is one of my favorites and yes I've listened to it many times and every time I cry 😢. They are soooo good!!!

Love what you said about music bringing out emotions in a beautiful way, I’ve been to many concerts and it’s a rare day if I don’t cry at least once during a set just cause I get overwhelmed by how beautiful it all is, it’s the best kind of tears lol

There’s a live version of this from their Christmas Special that is STUNNING.

This is definitely their best Christmas song, just because it’s perfect, but second best is Mary do You Know. Definitely recommend reacting to it!

You reaction almost mirrored my own the first time I heard this song. I didn’t shed a tear, but I was completely taken back. As a vocalist, I know how incredibly hard what their doing is, and they do it so effortlessly. Just amazing.

Thanks you for your reaction video. I too am brought to tears by the harmony and beautiful sound of this group and this song.

I know it isn't a "Christmas" song but their cover of "Imagine" by John Lennon is incredible and at one point a wall of vocal perfection will hit you AND, if that wasn't enough...the video will def. bring out the tears. ALSO...an older original by them that really hasn't been reacted to much (I know because I've looked) is their song "Run to You" Oh please, please, please react to it or just listen to it for your own enjoyment! Love your channel and content, thanks for all you do!

So the first fellow that sung was Scott. He's their lead. Interestingly, the guy in the beanie is (was) their bass singer, Avi Kaplan. He's no longer with the group, but you're absolutely right about his beautiful tone and timbre. He has a lot of solo stuff out now and his own KZfaq channel. You should definitely put it on your list to check out his work. You won't be disappointed! And of course Mitch and Kirstin did a fantastic job with this as well. First time I heard this I listened to it at least a dozen times and cried on every one of them. Just so beautiful and powerful. Wow.... Great reaction as always Hannah!

Right there with ya. Started tearing up in the first 10 seconds. I feel music in my soul too; sucker for a cappella and harmonies. No matter how many times I’ve heard this song sung by them I always cry with happy tears.

Oh my god i agree so much with your reaction to this song and the way it hits you and makes you feel so much emotion. They're incredible Thank you for doing Pentatonix. But also just thank Thank You !! for your videos they're so lovely and informative. I just discovered your channel.

Absolutely feel the music down deep in my soul. Especially tight harmonies. Pentatonix is definitely one of the best groups that has these harmonies

A couple of other big sounding songs from them are "Amazing Grace", "The Sound of Silence" or "Can You Feel The Love Tonight"

I've always been interested in how sounds can evoke such powerful emotional responses. I get chills, choke up, and shed tears for music like this too. Good job. Thanks for the reactions.

I'm crying with you here. I've heard this song many times, and Pentatonix is one of my top fav groups by far. And I have the same reaction every single time I listen to the songs. Tears and full on goose bumbs, chills down my spine. I can't sing worth a damn, I mean, I sing little songs to my son now and then, but, I can't really sing, I have just always wanted to. So I'm the one with the dream without the talent, for sure. But the way you say you feel music deeply, and cry even if it's a happy song? Same here, all the way

Omg you should definitely check out their song “Run to You”. It’s a original from them and it’s so stunning

Hannah, you've missed so much wonderful music. I would do "The Prayer " or " Amazing Grace " which are their latest and in my mind their best. They have improved as they are getting older.

Same here. Music hits so hard for me and I honestly cry whenever a song hits me this hard. Love your reaction videos.

The first time I heard this song I cried like a baby, had goosebumps like no one's business, and I've been stuck on it since. I felt this song in my soul. I don't cry every time I hear it now, but sometimes it catches me off guard🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

One of my favorite parts of this song is when Scott and Ari switch their baritone and bass parts. They transition between the first and second verse and its flawless. Its hard to catch in this video, but if you watch and listen to their love performance you can catch it.

With Christmas coming right up, I would recommend their live version (not from a concert, but performed/recorded live in the corridor of a stone chapel) of "Silent Night".

Their harmonies give me shivers. So great!

Every. Time. I hear a good singer, I'm amazed and I get shivers but after it sinks in, I cry. I cry because I feel like I'll never get to that point with my voice. I never had the opportunity to learn and I certainly don't have the money to get that training now. I wish I could be an amazing singer with a unique voice. I wish I can write songs that touch peoples hearts, but I fear I might be too late.
