Pentatonix - The First Noel - REACTION

[@gailseatonhumbert9199]

Avi as lead singer in Pentatonix is so rare. His fans know every line he gets.

[@janetranslates]

Truth. And every bass line, too.

[@FelixEA]

@@janetranslates I can confirm

[@2nicnag2]

I LOVE when reactors point out his, Kevin’s and Matt’s parts since typically they aren’t the ‘soloists’ because I get so lost in the sound I forget it’s a capella and have even gone back to listen solely in their parts to appreciate more what they do. I have no musical background

[@melaninikolova8495]

Finally someone else did this song. It's Soo underated. AVI kills this song, his voice is so beautiful!!

[@Bine80]

One of my favorites... ❤️❤️❤️ Obviously because of Avi's incredible voice here. 😍😍😍

[@rlhcat7662]

Aviously!

[@Lookinforrealmusic]

Avi's voice is absolutely beautiful. Thanks so much for this reaction

[@kimsowles4044]

❤️ Avi's voice hits me in the feels every time he sings 😌

[@cindyshell6845]

Yes it does. He speaks to my soul.

[@rlhcat7662]

This is absolutely one of my favorite PTX videos ever. I love when they give each person a solo section, and Avi in the majority of the lead fills my heart with peace, which we need at this time. Actually, Scott does sing a solo - the first part of the second verse, but he does it gently, no big runs or belting, so it fits right in with the tone of the whole video. Thanks for the great reaction.

[@robynwitham9326]

I love what Matt brings, but Avi is true magic!!!

[@vidsorama2]

That was so beautiful. The thing about PTX, they decide which voice is best for the different parts of songs. Ego does not seem to play a part in who sings what. I love that about them.

[@sharonbrady-methvin9722]

Same here but no one says it. Seems there's no ego problem at all!

[@julyriver8851]

I'm glad you reacted to this one. Such an underrated version/cover, it's kinda sad. The harmonies are crazy good and, let me tell, Avi is perfect! Love his voice.

[@gregsteele806]

You should check out their version of "The Little Drummer Boy" if you haven't already. Pentatonix elevated that song from one of my least favorite carols to one of my most favorite.

[@janetranslates]

Yes! I've always liked "Drummer Boy," but it got recorded by everyone from Mickey Mouse to Mick Jagger (not really, but it felt like it) to the point where I never wanted to hear it again. * * * * * * *Until PTX recorded it.

[@marymarchmcclelland5203]

I do not care if Avi is singing using his polyphonic (over tone) voice or singing Christmas Music, he has the perfect, deep, rich, chocolaty resonant voice out there. So glad his mother is a Messianic Hebrew so we can hear him singing these beautiful songs for us.

[@gailseatonhumbert9199]

I doubt that has anything to do with it. Avi was asked if it bothered him to sing Christmas music and he said of course not he had been in choir. Besides there is a very long tradition of Jewish singers doing extremely popular Christmas albums in the United States just think of Barbara Streisand. Religious belief is not required.

[@RosheenQuynh]

I thought his dad was Hebrew and his momma was Christian? 🤔 If I am wrong, I feel bad...

[@qrowesnestbookreviews6127]

Yes! One of my favorite PTX christmas songs. Avi getting to really shine

[@virginiahouchin7793]

Avi was the one who chose this location for this video! I love hearing Avi sing Christmas songs and when he gets to sing lead.

[@justlinsu]

When it starts his bass cuts through and curls my toes...lol Such a beautiful, rich, warm voice. Love him to bits. Oh if only he had been given more moments like this....ah well...I'm loving his solo career ..... I love your face when he starts to sing...just saying lol

[@selinbaltac6843]

Avi's solo in this one is everything omg, glad you reacted to this!!

[@lilianaberrioszapata3794]

One of my favorites arrangement of Pentatonix! 🥰 Reacts to "God rest ye merry gentlemen", "Jolene" and "can't help falling in love" 🙏🏼💚

[@Imanstice]

I LOVE this song. It's so underrated as compared with the other Christmas songs by PTX. I also second "The Little Drummer Boy" and "Angels We Have Heard On High". That's perfection!

[@MSKPELLEGRINO]

Kevin is beatboxing, stomping his foot and slapping his chest. How he can do three separate things at once is beyond me.

[@RosheenQuynh]

😆 I dunno why, but that's funny to read!

[@TheJaca25]

O my gosh, i love YOUR voice!! And yes finally somebody who thinks Mitch has Freddie vibes, I love the mustache too and completely agree with you! And they are just fabulous!

[@anessalyn1035]

This is my favorite Christmas song by Pentatonix. I love the video, so good

[@risacornette7636]

This. Was. BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for reacting to it. Snowing in Wisconsin today, so this was perfect for getting me in the Christmas spirit 💜

[@micahmccarthy7304]

Mary did you know? Is my favorite Christmas song they do.

[@vimalota1292]

One of my favourite Christmas carols! Beautiful. 👼 I love your adhoc chat, being real! Slightly distracted by the weird haircut, but that’s me and nothing to do with it all!

[@mikeruch2078]

PTX is so awesome! I miss Avi!

[@RosheenQuynh]

I don't really, not anymore. I'm proud of how far Avi's come.

[@kathyastrom1315]

IIRC, they filmed this while on tour in Ohio in mid- or late-October, and the director got it edited together within a month or so.

[@janetranslates]

For anyone who's ever met Mitch's dad, that 'stache gives us big Mike Grassi vibes! (But yeah, Freddie too.) Scott is the king of unexpected harmonies, but he DID have a solo, 4:20. And did you catch the sweet "Oo-oop oo-oop" backing up Scott at 4:27 and Kirstin at 4:42? (Not actual "p" sounds, but a quick glottal stop on a rising note. A little like the bird songs in "Come Along.") I haven't said anything about Avi, because when I think of him (especially on that last high "Noel"), I can't type past the lump in my throat.

[@gailseatonhumbert9199]

Yeah let's make sure we understand it is always Scott even when it isn't his song for a rare moment

[@lafprado]

My favorite Avi singing! He is truly amazing in this! His voice is soooo beautiful, wish I could hear he singing like this again.

[@LeskeyC001]

Hi Brad. Christmas is here indeed! Beautiful song.

[@Bonofox1]

ONE OF MY FAVORITES!!!❤❤

[@kathrynphelps9771]

The moustache came later, after Matt had joined after Avi left. And after the mullet too, I think.

[@cherylhowe1541]

Scott did have a couple lines of solo but Avi and Mitch were the most outstanding in this piece.

[@leoniepereira9451]

Mitch is so beautiful.

[@davidphillips4476]

So nice....they ya go.

[@ella7637]

Such a great reaction, I was laughing so hard! :) :) :)

[@alanaanderson7260]

I don't know how I got to this channel, but I'm stayin' lol.

[@soulfulme2]

Lol!!!! I love your reaction to this 😂😁👍🏽

[@alexandrarosanacuibus2205]

I agree with you, I love Christmas only that I would leave the tree and the decorations all year long,3 months it seems too little for us to enjoy them! and I really like your Christmas Sunday! but let's not leave Avi's voice in the last place, which is ... hot butter croissant with extra butter

[@alessandrobarzagli6269]

You are amazing!🤣

[@michelegillespie1971]

You did a very good Avi there at the beginning.

[@michelereynolds3527]

What you call the "Freddie Mercury mustache" I call the "80's dad look" . As a child everyone of my friends dad including my own had one of those mustaches.

[@XXTheXXBoss]

Loved the video Brad. Beatbox on point Brad 👍😁. Can you please react to Andrea Bocelli and Celine dion song called prayer #BradicalBandwagon

[@alex111683]

Everyone realize this song is a few years old right? Avi is no longer with them and is doing solo projects

[@RosheenQuynh]

I'm pretty sure he knows that; I'm fairly certain he's reacted to one or more of his solo stuff

[@gailseatonhumbert9199]

Of course. He left and now gets to actually sing all the time.

[@karmakkaze]

Mitch: Mustache ----> Havana Have you ever checked out Trans-Siberian Orchestra?

[@DerekOderBRSOB]

I like josh turners version also

[@katm4335]

I love Avi's voice, but without Mitch, Pentatonix would not sound the same or as good as they do.

[@yhlee7429]

Pentatonix is not the same w/o Avi
