I would love to see your reaction to their cover of Amazing Grace.

[@MammaLama-dq7qx]

The Universe has blessed Mitch with the voice of an angel

[@mikeyates7931]

One correction : GOD has blessed , Mitch with the voice of an Angel

[@petergraham6624]

You were just Mitch Slapped, (Mitch guy in the wide hat) he does this to everyone

[@annawalsberg6351]

Best "Mitch slap" I have seen in a while. Welcome to Pentatonix. To see how Mitch can sing this high, I recommend The Prayer next.

[@michaelmurphy5916]

Mitch is phenomenal. He's a counter tenor which means his voice is in the stratosphere anyway but he brings his chest voice and head voice together and maintains pitch and control. I'm 69 years old and it's like nothing I've ever heard. His fans have a name for it. It's called being Mitch slapped.

[@wickedwings7611]

I miss Avi! Scott is my favorite, but I miss Avi. He was so special. Matt is talented, but I think Avi just made them even more special. You have to watch "Mary did you know". So beautiful.

[@robinmcdaniel5881]

If Hallelujah does this to you, Amazing Grace, Run to You, Say Something , and The Prayer gonna killa ya girl. Don't even start with Christmas music. ENJOY

[@anessalyn1035]

The guy in the hat with the beard is Avi and no longer with Pentatontix, he has his own solo career now. Videos after 2018 is Matt (new bass). Mitch (high notes) is just not of this world.

[@perezynkrs1]

Wrong the guy with the hat is still there it's the other guy with the white jacket in sounds of silence who isn't there anymore

[@pattiburdick7716]

@steven perez you are not correct. She was talking about the guy with the BEANIE hat with a beard which is Avi, he is not there anymore. Matt, the guy in the white jacket in The Sound of Silence is absolutely still there!!

[@perezynkrs1]

Your reaction to those onions being chopped is why I love music.

[@daleb1279]

Welcome to the wonderful world of a cappella music. Next on the journey should be Home Free, which if someone is cutting onions again, I'd suggest starting with How Great Thou Art and then move to their cover of Boys II Men End of the Road and remember....there are no instruments.

[@garyhughes5480]

Loved your reaction as always. Someone got " MITCH SLAPPED" LOL. Please react to The Prayer.

[@MelloReacts]

😂😂😂 That's epic! I sure did!😂😂😂

[@kto_66]

Avi Kaplan is Sooooo freaking cute he is one of the originals singers. We needed more of this please... 🤗

[@jodiechilders8613]

When Leonard Cohen wrote the song back in the 80s, it was about faith in life, not religious faith. This world is full of conflicts and full of things that cannot be reconciled. But there are moments when we can reconcile and embrace the whole mess, and that's what I mean by 'Hallelujah.' ~Leonard Cohen Many artists have put their own interpretations into the song. From sexual, biblical figures mentioned, Samsom/Delilah and King David/Bathsheba. To spiritual / religious. No matter how it is interpreted, it is a beautiful song. Pentatonix is my favorite cover, they are all around perfection!

[@jinaharrell534]

Listen to" Mary did you know" by them. It will rock your world

[@tiffanytosh1569]

Yes!

[@Ruby-zo8ql]

I was about to comment this exact statement

[@ROLCY2024]

If you don't have an emotional reaction to this, you have no heart Tears stream every time I hear this and I do so every day.

[@michellegower6812]

Listen to their version of "Mary, Did You Know?" All the onions. That one gets me EVERY. TIME.

[@tinapatterson5022]

The way they do this song, It takes you to CHURCH!!!!🙏

[@habitualnapper8750]

They are all amazing but Mitch's voice touches my soul.

[@judithbush939]

There is a reason that this song has nearly 700 million views on you tube. It that goos live ,too!

[@michaelrunnels7660]

Pentatonix doesn't do anything in their videos that they can't do live, sounding exactly the same. If you want to go back into the onion cutting room, react to The Prayer, Amazing Grace, and Mary Did You Know. If you want to hear them having fun react to Daft Punk, Cheerleader, Can't Hold Us, You're a Mean One Mr Grinch, Oh Come All Ye Faithful, and Sing. If you want to hear how phenomenal they are at blending their voices react to My Heart With You, Run to You, and Can You Feel the Love Tonight. Everyone who features a lot of reactions to Pentatonix on KZbin has their subscriber numbers shoot way up. Hint, Hint.

[@nomadforchrist4337]

Sweet! My lady Mellow has found another one my hangups. Tom McDonald, now PTX whom I have loved since '11. Now get to David Phelps and the Righteous Brothers and we're there.

[@karendavis2668]

As a former choir kid, these videos and reactions are so satisfying 💖🦋

[@sheenadees2701]

I miss Avi he was such a great addition to this group. He was with them when I first came across Pentatonix a few years ago. His voice gets so deep.

[@nadinerick1182]

Definitely. Then again, I became an instant fan of Matt when they did The Sounds of Silence. 🙂

[@KristenRowenPliske]

Mat is really good but I still miss Avi. Glad he’s doing well though.

[@sandicave9637]

Mitch slapped!!! And that is a great thing!

[@sweettea527]

Tears....literal tears

[@cindyv1401]

Hey there Mello Do your heart a favor and listen to Pentatonix song 👇 THE PRAYER 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay]

I swear, Mitch's high notes always give me the chills

[@geekhan559]

No ones cutting onions your just listening to perfection on another level.

[@Valandar2]

There's one thing Pentatonix can do I have never heard another acapella group match, and they do it both here, and even more profoundly in the "Imagine" cover: They can sing the exact same notes with identical articulation, so that all five singing a verse sounds like one, profound voice.

[@Badger77722]

One of the interesting tidbits about this arrangement is that Kirstin went a half step higher when she was singing the final chorus of Hallelujah than she did during her solo! Because the song was going to be on a Pentatonix Christmas album, they were all dressed in heavy clothes and coats for the "winter season". But the video was actually shot in the Mojave Desert in CA in the middle of summer, with temps about 100°F! It's a wonder no one ended up with heat stroke!

[@evanirvana500]

Mitch is a counter tenor which means heccan reach into the soprano range. He has the most unique perfect pure voice you'll ever hear thjs side of heaven.

[@tweetiepooh2001]

This is by far a stunningly beautiful rendition of this gorgeous song. It hits everyone in the feels. Love it.

[@davidphillips4476]

The new guy was the original bass Avi Kaplan, he left in 2017 then Matt Sallee came on board. Their new Christmas album is going to be INSANELY good!

[@sandbagger2310]

Most breath taking group ever ! PERIOD!

[@teresaclark5874]

Lol. Mitch slapped! Try Avi Change on the Rise. Awesome!

[@dennislbrown]

They don't overdub. Everything they do in their videos, they can 100% recreate live, and they do. You can find rough videos where they are singing live, informally, etc and it's obvious.

[@michaeltutty1540]

You are so right about the sky and the atmosphere in general. The video was filmed in the Mojave Desert near Barstow. The time of day was very deliberate. This video had to have been filmed in one take with various cameras on the ground and in the air mounted on drones. The reason I say all one take is the light, which is entirely natural. It was filmed in Magic Hour, a time of day that the French call L'Heurre Bleu. There is no way to create the effect artificially. The clarity and sharpness it gives film is indescribable yet unmissable. Your reaction to Mitch called a "Mitch Slap" his voice is amazing anyway, but never finer than here. You have the glorious, lush wall of sound at the end of the chorus, and then bang. Just Mitch with his otherworldly sound. When he gets to "Its a cold and it's a broken HALLELUJAH", your heart breaks. What adds more meaning is how he holds the first syllable, creating a syncopated phrase, where is is slightly off the beat but constantly tuning the chord.

[@BloodTithingsGaming]

They did a live version of this in a Christmas special one year and it is mindblowing how the live version sounds even better than the produced record version. If you get the chance definitely give it a watch!

[@charlottevan_8]

6 years after performing in this version of "Hallelujah" with his fellow group members, Avi Kaplan, now solo, performed this version of his original song "All Is Well" in a church in Utrecht, Netherlands, during his European tour. Resonant perfection. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qX_Nk3R3n6tnisk

[@theresarigio5627]

Listen to The Prayer and their new audio release of Prayers for This World. I am sure there will be onions cut during those as well. Loved your reaction. 💕💕

[@lori-ellencoley6100]

Check out Home Free' s "Ring of Fire" where Avi is a guest singer

[@joeb4142]

I can’t count how many times I’ve listened to this song but it never fails to give me chills and uplift me. I really enjoyed your reaction. It’s so nice when someone ‘gets it’ down to their soul. Avi left the group on amicable terms for family reasons. Between Pentatronix, Voiceplay and the individual singers in both groups they’ve started a modern a cappella revolution.

[@tammyree6200]

I'm so excited you're on this journey. They will touch you in some way with every single song. I also recommend The Prayer, Amazing Grace and the live version of Hallelujah the Christmas Special. Can't wait for more! 💞 Their Chirstmas music is insanely good, and there is a LOT! 🎄🎄

[@tamikobogad6306]

They always give each other a chance to shine and they really know how to express the emotion of every song they sing. Blessed with the gift of music.

[@jjennings6161]

Pentatonix is such a beautiful group. They harmonize so well together. If you like their music you should try Home Free they are also an acapella group who do their own best boxing. Tho should really check them out too.

[@victoriaburch1367]

And there it is! She was Mitch slapped pretty hard.

[@ggj666]

The John Cale "hallelujah" is my favourite version of this song. It was also used in a "scrubs" episode

I got chills from head to toe

[@emptynestmom1479]

Love your Mitch Slap face when he went high. In fact, I love watching everyone get Mitch Slapped with this video.😊🥰

Darned onion ninjas! I heard someone say that Pentatonix came in two speeds: Buckle up, and Tissues lol.

[@michelleadams7247]

I heard them live and they are just as amazing live

[@jamesdavisjr6937]

All glory to God hallelujah

[@dejns6945]

That's Mitch with the high tenor. You have been Mitch slapped. That's what we their fans say when he shocks you. I'm a Pentaholic aka fan.

[@tommieev5589]

I love your reactions! Avi Kaplan (with the beard) was in Bohemian Rhapsody which you reacted to, but he mostly sang bass in that one. Of course, with copyright holds, you may have watched this before that. As others have said, he left the group in late 2017. I hope you react to his solo stuff too.

[@rachellephipps1361]

Yes I really hope you react to Avi's solo stuff. So good! Would recommend Change on the rise or He dont love you right. They are very different but both are great.

[@BrilligandtheSlithyToves]

Have you done their version of "Mary did you know?" yet? It will bring out the"onions" even more.

[@jacquelinemalone2242]

You must now listen and watch..."Amazing Grace", "The Prayer" and "Mary did you Know"

[@georgesigala3716]

Ok, miss Mello this was one of you best reactions I've seen so far. Keep it up i am a complete and total fan! I hope you don't mind me calling you sweet child, girl! You are sweet as sugar, and right as rain. I'm here to watch you grow your channel. Keep them coming!!!

they use the pentatonic scale for their harmonies, blends, etc

Mitch Grassi is a Counter-tenor and sings 6 octaves higher than most people worldwide!

[@amandasamson4513]

everytime the bass singers take the Lead on a verse, Scott takes over the Bass and it's seemless. Amazing

[@debbieharkness7661]

This song just makes me LOVE my Jesus even more...

Which just goes to show the power of this song about a failed love affair, written by a Jewish Buddhist.

[@ZaneNicholson]

@@shirleymoffat3338 exactly not even a religious song but it feels almost spiritual

[@charlesbrown293]

I've seen and heard this video a least a 1000 times. And I only just realized that when Avi sings his solo, Kevin covers Scott's baritone part!

[@joelholland8523]

When I first seen this, I lost my mind 😆 Great reaction Mello

[@cynthiahaun9269]

You have officially been Mitch slapped dude can sing naturally no falsetto 6 different octaves

So glad to see you do this one. You always get to my heart the way you show how each show your pure emotion. You should watch their live performance. They are the same. Also, you should check out Avi's personal songs since he left PTX. As always, much love from a Great Grandma in WA. State.
