The live performance video of this song blows the album version of this out of the water

You don't need a video, but you NEED THAT VIDEO. You think this hits, wait until you see them do it live in the video! I have loved this song since it came out, but this cover blows my mind. They are on a whole other planet these days. I'll be looking for the next one! Love your reactions!

Scott did a short where he was "searching for Christmas songs" they hadn't covered yet. He found the word "snow" in Kiss From A Rose so it made it to his list!

The live version is even better. Just leaves me speechless..... I think it is required in the Pentaholic fan bylaws somewhere that we have to accept listening to Pentatonix Christmas music any day of the year.

Yes you need the video. It is amazing! This version is great but the video takes it to a whole new level!!

If you like Scott's entry into the song in this version, wait until you see the live performance - I think he even startled Kirstie and Mitch, who both reached up to their In-Ear Monitors and switched them at the same time right after Scott started his solo! Kevin is playing an electric cello in this song, and he can switch it to sound like an electric guitar - that's what you heard. And then he comes out with that "Bay-bee" at the end of his cello solo - I thought it was Mitch until I saw the live video!

That was Kevin that high note after his cello solo. You need to watch the performance!

Great reaction! The VEVO live video is a must see. Trust us!! This yule log version is great, but the live is amazing!! Kevin kills it with the celloboxing. Their "Christmas" songs are a favorite all year long to the Pentaholics! So don't worry about the time of year, we will be here for it!

Definitely at least watch the video for yourself, it’s amazing. You can see Kevin playing the electric cello and beatboxing at the same time, and that high note after the cello solo was him. Everyone’s just on their best form for this song.

In the video you get to see the surprises. There are a few! You will never guess who does that high note after the violin/ cello part! Enjoy, I sure did.

An amazing cover of an amazing song! I saw Seal support Duran Duran a few years ago. I'm definitely going to check out some more Pentatonix

Lol, that's how I felt. Exactly like you when I hear them. ❤

Their vocals ALWAYS show through but you truly need the video here. The order of singing: Mitch, Scott, Matt, Scott, Mitch with Kirstie in there and then Kevin going hard on the cello and the high notes following Kevin’s cello is Kevin. Absolutely mind blowing. Pentatonix truly knows no bounds.

Great song! And nice reaction. You're gonna love the video!

Yeah you really need to watch the live performance - it's worth it! Watching Kevin playing that cello solo and singing the VERY high note at the end of it is worth the vid all by itself

Even if you don't react to the LIVE video, watch it. WARNING though...you might think you're ready for it after hearing the audio version, you're not. Nobody is the first time.

Video is really awesome. Sounds better in the live version Definitely worth the watch

The answer is yes. Yes they went harder than Seal 😁

Yes to the video (which you will realize that you, in fact, DO need once you see it). One of the BEST things they’ve ever done (along with O Holy Night video). The Vevo Pure Imagination is also 🔥.

Watching the video would have distracted us from watching your response....PRICELESS.👍👍❤️

That is Kevin on the cello, while beatboxing at the same time. He calls it Celloboxing. He also sings 'Baby' We usually get a Mitch Slap at that moment but were surprised by the KO by Kevin. Pentatonix also has been telling us what qualifies as a Christmas song for years. This one qualified because the word snow was in it. They have also had some fringe Christmas songs on previous albums. 'I Just Called to Say I Love You', God Only Knows', Amazing Grace', and 'Sweater Weather'

It sounds even better in the video lol

Originally sung by the artist called Seal.❤️❤️

You done ot and Seal wpould ne proud lol❤❤

The live kills!!!!! Great reaction however. Kevin on his Cello is insane. Love this!!

This is the best cover I have ever heard by any group and I a new to Pentatonix because of All of you guys and Red so Thanks Y'All 👍👍Hey KZfaq algorithm This one deserves 10x the normal algorithm ❤❤❤❤❤#pentatonix #pentatonixreaction #acapella #reaction #redheadedneighbor

The live video is badass

one of my favorite songs. awesome reaction. btw you are stunning !!

I think you need to watch the live version, plus "Pure Imagination", "O Holy Night", and "Please Santa Please".......I swear, as amazing as Pentatonix is, they go to next level on these songs....

Kevin's cello playing is fire.

It’s interesting. To my ear the video version uses more looping and/or bass effects than the album version. Both are great in any event.

Well they hit that out of the park! That cello! I thought at the end of that part they were going to go into the Devil Went Down to Georgia. lol I'll prepare to be struck down by Home Fries but I think I prefer Pentatonix. It might just be that of the songs I've heard from both so far I prefer the one's Pentatonix have done. Both are of course brilliant at what they do though. I always thought Kiss from a Rose was Seal's Tracy Chapman's Fast Cars moment. The only song most people know from either artist. I honestly couldn't name another from him.

This is why we say that PTX doesn't do covers, they do upgrades

Well, in a way, you will be surprised when you do see the video. There are several fun surprises that you can’t imagine or vision from the sound track only.

The live version is even better and KZfaq seems to be kind on blocking that one.

This is good but the live is incredible!!!

I don’t watch anything but reactions to the live version of this one. I subbed just to see your reaction to the live version.

Do check their Live Vevo performance of Kiss from a rose. Prepare to be 🤯

I must admit I was besotted by the "seal" original but nice to hear another version !!

Love focussing on the Audio sometimes! Now watch the video! The "blur" seems to work for some KZfaqs. I think its great to be able to see a reactor watch the video - I can often picture the video scenes in my mind. Do "Run to You", "Shallow", "Wizard of Ahhs", "Prayer for this World", "Prayer", "Amazing Grace" "RadioActive (with Lindsey Stirling)" and...

Check out their Bohemian Rhapsody. Brilliant cover.

Need to watch the live VEVO version.

Red, you need to realize that, as good as this was, the live version makes this seem "okay." The energy, the chemistry, the visuals... this is one of (if not the only) times that their live version sounds better than their studio version. When I say "better," I mean by a mile. As to being blocked, many other reactors have gotten theirs through. They can do it... You can do it. You're plenty imaginative enough to do it!! I'll be a bit more emphatic... The live version of this is (get ready) one of the top three performances I have EVER seen (or heard) by Pentatonix, live OR recorded. It totally blew me away. As much as you enjoyed this.... enough said.

Nice reaction vid. Here's one where you prob dont have to wait. Recorded back stage in front of a small group ,for the make a wish foundation . "Pentatonix Daft Punk "Private Mix"

Got a new artist suggestion for you - Lewis Capaldi. He has some amazing songs out there, like "Someone You Loved", "Wish you the Best", and "Before You Go". He is also hilarious, if you've ever seen him on a talk show.

you reaction is the same when my cat has zoomies

there is both a live vid and one not live...its there believe me....have fun!! 😊

Promise me you will watch the video

You need to check out the Dan Vasc metal cover of this song and his metal singer does amazing grace

Recommend their cover of Mad World.

yeah you gotta do the video. Completely different experience.

video is better. dont be afraid about blocking. I have seen at least 20 people just like you to get it through. If it gets blocked..oh well.. no pain no gain. The video makes it WAYYYYYYY better

Yes, please watch the video. Better react to it. Lol

This was great… but live vevo please ❤😁

You need to get the VEVO Live version. They’re not being blocked.

The video is a Vimeo live performance, so it's copyright free - you don't have to alter the video. Same's true of 90's Dance Medley.

Yeah you do...because it's a live recording and NOT the "official video".

the live version from vevo is actually a little different than the one you reacted to. The live version is better, and is mixed a little differently, and shows more and is mixed better.........have you watched it yet on your own? Please do ! thanks!

This is the live version you should have gotten, they really show out in it, and since it was filmed at vevo studios as part of PTX's new found record label independance, you can show the video without it getting blocked. You miss so much of the good stuff without this version. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f5l-eKmGtLLYqKc.html

You think PTX went hard but search PTX ghostbusters

you need to react to this song but live vevo.....it is allot better....

Do video please. You’ll like much better

If you don’t watch the video you are wasting your time!!!! Especially on this one !!!!

react to the live video!

I like Pentatonix (almost as much as Home Free) But I like the cover by Face Vocal Band, another A Capella Group, is better: Kiss from a Rose by Seal kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7KnlpCcrrzGqIk.html

Nice to see enjoy this Reaction so much hope you have a get out of jail free card ! incase penta!!!!! get the old ball & chain trick so looking forward to hearing you react to Avi Kaplan Solo work another amazing Rabbit hole💕
