FIRST TIME REACTING TO - POPSPRING 2016 - PENTATONIX | REACTION

[@sonjarussell7332]

Just can’t get enough ‘bouncy Mitch’! A true force of nature.

[@llmllm]

The last song Water..is so friggin good..I love this song..its an original..written by Kirstie..

[@MissaBriizzooks]

You finally got a taste of PTX original music!!! They just don't do covers baby!! Check out their The Lucky Ones(deluxe) album all originals and all bangers! I knew you'd love Popspring 😂 I kneeewww Water would have you feeling some type of way! ❤😂 Great reaction

[@ellenhulslander2897]

Just a note, during the bridge, those really stratosphere high notes are coming from Kevin.😁 There aren't many songs that grab you at first listen, but this is one of them. Written by Kirstie and Kevin I believe. It is unbelievable that radio does not play their music.

[@pjb3583]

It’s hard to say any one of them gets lost in the shuffle, but I think Kirstie may be the most underrated singer/songwriter of the bunch. Water is a gem and she is just magnificent singing it. Glad you made the time for this performance, I know it’s more of a commitment than the average reaction. I enjoyed it very much. Peace …

[@davidphillips4476]

Water is my favorite from this set. The whole vibe is so cool.Vocally Scott is a riffing beast. Live they are such a treat. They do more than just sing, they literally interact with the crowd. Kevin's ability to beatbox through an entire show is crazy endurance. That's what always amazes me about them, being in sync with each other and keeping that flowing through the entire act. This is live..Avi's bass is special. Mitch and high notes, treasure. love that, you vibe attracts your tribe...

[@ShinyElfriend]

I love when a reactor takes on Popspring! It’s a perfect way to showcase how good they are live, and to hear three of their original songs, plus MJ of course. I find myself randomly singing “Water” a lot, lol! I’m so glad you liked it, too!

[@davidphillips4476]

LOL same with "Water" love that song.

[@2436golden]

I love all the songs but "Water" is my favorite.

[@kristipierce4735]

Popspring is one of my favorite vids! Their originals are so so excellent and Water gives me chills and goosebumps every time! I hope you do one of their first originals (the first?) called Love Again. I think it will be 🤯. I wish you would also do See Through (audio only)- I always request it from reactors, but few take me up on it 😭. 😁

[@bethphillips9693]

PLEEZ do "Run to you"!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@WollisWorld]

Got u

[@joosyjulie]

Yes please. One the most haunting songs I've ever heard.

[@katneyens766]

I really appreciated how much you appreciated Water. 😂 This is the only video of this song and it’s very underrated.

[@WollisWorld]

That song is nostalgic to me

[@ruth2141]

The three original songs come from Pentatonix's 2015 self-titled originals album. "Water" is one of my favorites and was written by Kirstie, Kevin and a songwriter called Audra Mae. It never got an official video, so I'm really glad to have this great live version.

[@elizabethsantersero9597]

I prefer the sound of this live version to the studio version - just has more soul and watching her sing so expressively makes a difference too 😊

[@becreative2420]

This is the only professional performance I've been able to find of Water. Saw this tour in Tulsa. My fav.

[@janicesharp9842]

You should react to Scott’s song mars it’s fantastic 👍🏻❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Bonofox1]

👋They are just So AMAZING, so you know they can do this LIVE!! Cracked Can't Sleep Love Water Are PENTATONIX originals!!! Are you going to continue the Sing Off series??

[@AnjeannetteMarie-Swifie4Ever]

Thx for doing this one, I know it’s longer than most but us Pentaholics LOVE it. They’re all fantastic, my favorite is Water 🔥❤️🙌

[@karenmcglone9096]

I love this performance!!! MJ had tons of hits but when they are smashed together like they do it truly becomes “Oh love this one. Ahhh one of my favorites” til we finally realize and remember how great he really was. And with such a massive following in Japan, I don’t see them there and not doing his evolution. Water is insane. It has a way of captivating you into a trance like state. Me, it’s to the point of, don’t drive and listen as ya might get sucked in so much that you forget basic rules of the road. It is a favorite original of mine. Glad you like it too. Just remember, it’s Kirsten not Kristen. Can’t wait to see more from you

[@pamscarr8696]

That bass indeed! There are some really good basses out there, but none as great as Avi Kaplan. Classically/Operatically trained Basso Profundo with the greatest resonance of them all. YOu really should react to some of his solo work. Much more to the folk, western, country side, but his voice is so fabulous.

[@ivanalaff5346]

And so very easy on the 👀…..😮!

[@webdar55]

Yay, I clicked on this one so fast.🙂 Thanks for doing it, I knew you'd love it! 😉

[@jcs1025]

He drives the women crazy, believe me. Even though he’s happily engaged to his boyfriend of 6 years. :)

[@Anna-xx1lv]

I knew you would LOVE Water! ❤️

[@tweety179]

I love your reactions. The fact that you are a producer puts your videos on a different level. Having said that, there have been the occasion when you say things that are offensive to certain populations. Like when you said something to the effect that Scott chose to be gay. The fact is that he no more chose to be gay than you chose to be straight. He was born that way. So the comment that he could get any woman he wanted was insensitive. That would be like someone telling you that you could get any man you wanted.

[@WollisWorld]

That wouldn’t offend me my skin is thick feel me ..it’s just words I didn’t intend to what ur implying…but I greatly appreciate your support ..I love all people

[@UserHorologium]

I am partial to the studio version of "Water", because it has a few sections with Kirstin's vocals layered in a way that cannot be duplicated live, and the balance is (understandably) perfect. There isn't an official video, but there are audio-only and lyrics videos available. You might want to listen to one of them to get the full realization of Kirstin, Kevin and Audra Mae's composition.

[@joosyjulie]

You have to flip the coin, think of how many MEN he could get?.

[@WollisWorld]

Lmao I’m weak

[@Badger77722]

Glad you enjoyed the concert! Water is my favorite of the originals they performed, and I think it's a shame that they never made an official video for it, but at least we've got this one to enjoy!

[@tk_nice]

Can't Sleep Love is one of my favorites, and it was their first ORIGINAL song! How good was that??? Water is another great original.

[@WollisWorld]

Water is fire

[@melissacoviello2886]

I feel like Love Again was their first original song. But Can’t Sleep Love did make it to #1 on the billboard charts, maybe that’s what you’re remembering. It’s also my favorite song, specifically with Mitch doing the rap, although I like the official version as well. Water was written Kirstie and Kevin. It’s phenomenal.

[@hernameispekka_Rebecca]

@@melissacoviello2886 i think baddest girl might have been the first? Cant sleep love was their first original single release

[@geriatricptxer2362]

No. Not their first original. They were doing originals back in 2014. Baddest Girl and Show You How to Love, and Love Again was from their July 2014 PTX Vol 1. Standing By, Run to You, and Natural Disaster from their 2014 album PTX, also from Vol 2 (October 2014).

[@minaolenella869]

@@geriatricptxer2362 PTX vol 1 and baddest girl was released in 2012, not 14.

[@carlaemerson1195]

Incredible channel, just love it❤❤

[@Truebie]

If you love MJ’s Human Nature you should react to Kevin’s cover of it. It’s absolutely beautiful 😍 loving the reactions!!❤❤

[@bonnievonbraun6276]

All original songs, except, obviously "Evolution of Michael Jackson". And where does Scott manage to get all those great jackets? On the current tour they are doing "Can't Sleep Love", but I think I still prefer this version.

[@WollisWorld]

The last one was my favorite one

[@Gwennedd]

@@WollisWorld, That was Water, written by Kirstie and Kevin.

[@bonnievonbraun6276]

@@WollisWorld Yeah, I know!😊

[@larryross9492]

I love everything about the 3 originals, but I'm really gob smacked by Avi's base and his totally cool manner and John Wyk black suit.

[@vidsorama2]

Glad that you reacted to this one. It's a fan favorite. Thanks. Happy that you loved "Water". Me too. I love when Kirstin is the main songwriter/cowriter and lead for Pentatonix songs.

[@margretrosenberg420]

Trust me, Kevin is breathing. He incorporates sounds that happen on an inhalation throughout. He's also said that when he needs to burp (because they drink so much water) he just incorporates the burp into his beatboxing. And Kirstin gave him a dirty look and basically accused him of gloating because singers can't do that.

[@Eric1SanDiego1]

"Too much Soul" and Scott isn't even doing his thing in this one! This group is absolutely amazing. Each one has MULTIPLE talents, especially Kevin (you already heard his crazy origin story). Scott can get REALLY soulful, Kirstie can belt like a Siren, Mitch... yeah. Avi and Matt on the Bass, K.O. can sing too! And Kevin wasn't recruited to the group as a singer. He clearly took voice lessons as part of his career because you can tell he's improved over the years. It's hard to tell because he sings so rarely but when he does, it's evident. The vibes their songs give us are totally real. I drive Uber at night and a girl cried in my car after hearing "Hallelujah". Another time, three girls twerked in their seats and were LOUD and excited when I put on "Daft Punk" or "Love Again". They sing to "Bohemian Rhapsody" and they get Mitch-Slapped on certain songs. It's entertaining AF. About 60% of people have never heard of them before and they're blown away. Also: Bose speakers for the win!

[@sharonh951]

During their early years, Avi would work with Kevin, helping him with his vocals. He really has a good voice, wish he got to sing more often.

[@Eric1SanDiego1]

@@sharonh951 It would be really interesting if one of the Trio learned how to beatbox. Scott takes over the Bass when Matt (or Avi) sings but Kevin has no backup. Granted, it's a lot of work to master beatboxing but if anyone could do it....

[@df5199]

Recommend their original, Be My Eyes.

[@carmengibson]

Love the PopSpring reactions! I love Water also! Loved your reaction! ❤

[@LottieOfWales]

It’s just crazy to think about Kirsten and Mitch dating. They were adorable together

[@TivittFam]

I would suggest you listen to Rise -Katy Perry cover by Superfruit. I think you would enjoy it. It gives me goosebumps every time I watch it. You might already know but superfruit is Scott and Mitch.

[@piranhapunk]

u know i love your reactions, but the comment abt scott "choosing" to be gay was a lil off!! seen odd replies from u in comments about them too, just wanna check in. nobody chooses who theyre attracted to, yknow? scott & mitch & kirstin are just not hetero, and they were born that way 😊🌈✨️

[@joosyjulie]

The metranome comment, I think they learnt from way back in their 'Sing off' competition days where they were criticised for speeding up. Plus Kevin is pure genius.

[@catherinelopresti7121]

Love this! never get tired of seeing this performance. Hope you do their newest released cover of Creep!

[@megandelynn6114]

Hey doll, since you're in the studio a lot & you've mentioned wondering how each song gets started & arranged, I wanted to leave you a link that you'll really enjoy! Whether it's a cover or original, it usually starts with someone in the band mentioning an idea & then they just jam to start developing it & at some point the unofficial 6th member of PTX, Ben Brahm, will come in to help finish the arrangement. This link is for a collection of random jamming sessions that shows how they arrange! Hope you enjoy! Oh, and we've decided they are all alien unicorns😉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZvLlYhnp9Cnpsk

[@pepinosylvie8887]

Love your reaction 👍 It's always a joy to see again Popspring Special, this is just phenomenal how they sound live and how great are their originals. Wonderful ! They all shine for me in this one but Avi, that smooth bass which caresses you, it's just incredible. Hope to see you react to Avi solo work, he's mind blowing 😍I recommend When I'm a fool live at Sunset Sound with Shooter Jennings. You'll see what his world of music is about. A masterpiece of music. Avi's singer, writter, musician, arrangist ... he just feels music and this is wonderful. Hope to see you react to this one sometimes. Thanks for this moment 😘

[@tamarasmith9060]

There is another vid on youtube from this concert. It has the whole of PTX's performance (about an hour, in case you want to just check it out on your own) but you see now why everyone recommended this cut vid. It's just long enough to give someone new to PTX a good feeling of what it's like to be at 1 of their concerts, but it features 3 great originals of different genres & lets you see the "choreo" they came up with for Evo of MJ since that wasn't in their official vid for it.

[@dejns6945]

1st an original song. No Avi is the one for me. That bass is hott. My girl is called not Kristy but Kristy sounds like thirsty. 2nd original song. 4th original song again.

[@LionHeart17Q]

Thanks for reviewing this one! Kirstin’s song “Water” does it for me, too.

[@G-grandma_Army]

Please do some originals. Different members helped write the songs: “Sing” (I dare you to not move) “Be My Eyes” - Kirstin shines “Coffee in Bed” “Thank You” - Scott wrote this and plays piano Scott also has a single he released late last year called “Mars”. I can’t remember if you have reacted to that or not, BTW- I think you need to buy “Water” and put it on a playlist. definitely know what you mean about it putting you in a zone.

[@jonarosen]

Don't forget 'Love Again'

[@MO-ju1zm]

5 Heartbeats was one of my favorite movies so when you referenced Eddie and showed the clips. It took me back to my childhood. Flash worked at my mom's job like a decade or more after that movie came out. I was hype.

[@bridgetorue9608]

Amazing performance as always

[@marablemorgan8292]

Water is my favorite...

[@karannewton3481]

Love watching your channel grow. Recommendations: Gold, Dance of the Sugarplum Fary, Super fruit Rise

[@bethphillips9693]

I think the song "water" is an original of theirs

[@WollisWorld]

Yeah that song go hard I like it

[@Gwennedd]

They're all originals except for the Evolution of Michael Jackson.

[@margretrosenberg420]

I was late to the party, too - I just discovered Pentatonix last September. We find out about things when we find out; no use obsessing over the fact that we missed them earlier.

[@janetburrows137]

It’s just a real strange that in Perth Australia and made a better job than the very j dud, ASAP? OR HE WILL ACTUALLY RUIN YOU. Stand your ground. Don’t listen too three Moth. Hmmmm!!!! I actually think, you bark is better than bite on A Brike.ok. By the way.did anyone other than steve. Been in touch with my boy. ❤️🙏🤷‍♀️🫶🇬🇧👍😍🤪🙄😇🍀

[@elizabethtucker6026]

Such a great set, lovely reaction. Kirstie was on fire during water, MJs hits were amazing. All the Mitch-slaps, Scott riffs, Avi's full, warm bass and Kevin as a drum machine. Fantastic, enjoyed your vibing.

[@amybruner744]

Yes! Water touches me the same way. So much emotion and soul. Nice to see another reactor appreciating one of my favorites!

[@deeleebee13]

if your impressed by Mitch's jumping around his range you should listen to their rendition of "Gold"

[@gailseatonhumbert]

I think they have a metronome in their in ears.

[@WollisWorld]

I said the same after I pressed stop lol

[@9012505]

I'm pretty sure there is a click track in one ear and the rest of the group in the other.

[@tyseemahbishop6123]

They were doing work shops on KZbin on how to make arrangements for accapella and be boxing

[@nickybomberry1190]

Every time I watch Popspring I’m sad that I missed a decade of PTX 😢

[@Eric1SanDiego1]

Hey Wolli, I had to look up who the Knicks are because Sports are not at all my forté, but that's what Google is for. Are you therefore in New York? If so, are you gonna go to one of the two PTX concerts in that State in August? If it's just a hat, where are you located and will a PTX concert be coming your way this year? I bet you and your family would LOVE to go! I saw them at the Hollywood Bowl last year and they were FIRE.

[@WollisWorld]

Yes I’m in NYC and yes I need to go for sure lol

[@melissacoviello2886]
