Avi (Jewish) and Kevin (Christian) are best friends and were roommates for awhile. They are all amazing humans. This was released in 2017 a few months before the unite the right rally where white supremacists marched chanting "Jews will not replace us" John Lennon died for these beliefs and PTX tried to change us but evil and hate are hard to fight. Some of us continue to push for the change that PTX hoped this video would push for.

That run that Mitch does at the end of his solo atlways gives me chills, as does that "wall of sound" they produce near the end.

PTX is a true example of how people of different races, genders, nationalities, religions, & sexual orientation CAN work together, respect each other & live in harmony together (literally, in their case;)! Did you notice on the cards it showed one thing they had in common with the member they passed it to! Very cool! Great reaction!

I’m not going to lie, I love this version of this song better than John Lennon’s, and I’ve been Beatles fan for as long as I can remember. I believe John would love the message in this video.

Never wait in line. We need the red lights in traffic and in life, because everyone needs to take a pause in stressful situations. Driving in traffic and watching out for unthinking pedestrians can be stressful. Also letting the other guy go first is a good thing. taking turns is a good thing.

I'd never wait in line again. I liked what you said about if everyone were the same, we'd be robots. But consider this too, it takes difference in thought and opinion for there to be change. Without change we become stagnant and there will never be progress in anything. I, too, believe in the human race not being pigeonholed by color, religion, sexual orientation, social or economical status, or any other divisive groupings. May we all learn to give and recieve with equality in mind. In short, be kind to one another. ❤

For me the PTX take on this track was even if people are varied in many ways, you can still come together ...whether that be harmony or music or just civility. They prove that you only have to share minor similarities to get along. Thanks Suffi - as for the waiting question - I'm a really patient person, so neither actually phase me. I think I would rather wait in line - green traffic lights always freak me out a bit as you never know just when they're going to change to amber or how long the amber will last ! Also, I'm on the West coast of Australia....so our lines really aren't ever that long to be honest. Probably be different if I was lining up at Adventure World with a bunch of kids though :)

Ahahah, so funny that you bring this subject. I would keep the red light because I’m relaxed in the car, I love to drive listening to the radio. The worst time I had to stand in line was at a PTX show. Lol. We had VIP tickets (Toronto March 2014), we had to be there at 4:30 PM for a 8 PM show. They were moving the line through gift bag and merch before we got to meet the band and have our posters and/or VIP tickets signed. All very exciting. They are so wonderful and pleasant. BUT THEN... it was a stand up only show. (Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh, we didn’t know and we are 4 mature adults!). Anyway, it was a fantastic show, they are amazing but I have to say, my ears rang for a couple of days from the high pitch screams of the fans and the sound of our knees cracking when we finally sat in the car. Ahahah... *sigh* Oh well. 🤗

It took me a moment to realize that when the card is being passed, that's a label both in that trade-off share. Also: I'll take skipping lines. I can't drive. Even if I did, skipping lines means you won't have to risk the light turning again before you get to it. :P

It's astonishing we need to be remembered that we are human, mostly when the original song was released many years ago (it seems we did not learn too much in the meantime?). And ironically we'll probably need to be remembered again in the future... Or maybe we can just understand and realize that being "human" is exactly being as we are now, Anyway PTX did a fantastic job with this one and I'm sure this song will become even greater overtime. Concerning lights, I would rather prefer to find them all in green, but the bigger a city is the more I understand some of them have to be red . Finding "my" lights all green means someone will find "theirs" red... Could you please react to "never Enough" from Citizen Queen (a female a capella group put together by Scott from PTX). You won't be disappointed. Thanks! See you in the next one

Everything you said about the message, they're all different, but they're all human. AND, they are five distinctly different voices who blend together to make such a beautiful sound. So I see that as an interesting parallel. Waiting for a light to change is waiting your turn, just like waiting in line. So I don't see a whole lot of difference between the two, except that in my vehicle I'm sitting rather than standing, listening to music I choose, so I'm more comfortable. Not really sure why I'm so much more impatient waiting for traffic than I am in line at the store.

Nicely done, Suffi. I like that the message wasn't lost on you, as I've seen it lost on a few before this. And, the message in the video is always appropriate, but much more so, it seems, in these times. We're more divided than ever before, it seems to me, by politics, religion, race, sex, world-view, money...whatever, but at the end of the day we're all still human. I try, the Gods know I don't always succeed but I DO try, to always keep that in mind. And I, like you, would much rather not have to wait in line. Traffic lights suck, sometimes, sure.

You're right, Scott has a really wide range, which doesn't happen by accident, so he has to be good at the bio-mechanics of voice placement. With some natural talent you get about 2.5 octaves. Add some hard work and you spread that to 3. Scott has 4, so lots of smart/hard work. He covers bass when Avi is on a solo and is constantly switching between baritone support, baritone lead, tenor support and tenor lead. I would prefer the green lights. I'm not in line much, probably because I have atypical interests and also because I live in the Southwest, not in heavily urban settings. I spend more time driving to small places with few lines.
