They just dropped a stunning cover of “Mad World” by Tears for Fears (and later Gary Jules). It features Matt Sallee (Avi Kaplan’s hand-chosen replacement as bass). His duet with Mitch is astounding. “The Evolution of Music” is one of their earliest videos, while they were still hustling for attention and recognition!

[@shannonoborn9158]

That was probably my favorite.

[@marymarchmcclelland5203]

Avi, the bass is operatically trained. Just a few days before Scott found him, he had decided to make opera his career. He left the group because of physical, mental and spiritual fatigue. He is a fabulous soloist if you like mostly folk music and had several EP's out. He has a very nice range of just over 4 octaves, mostly writes his own music. He is the brain child and co founder of The A Capella Academy for middle and high school students from all over the world. He raises money by doing livestreaming personal concerts and people donate so that those youth who do not have the funds but are highly talented can be a part. Here is one of their performances . The Seed by Avi Kaplan kzbin.info/www/bejne/joubanV-oreZrdU I think you will love his writing and the young people he calls his "babies".

[@KevinSchmitt77]

"Change on the Rise" and "Otherside" are my two favorites songs of his solo work

[@masyelraf]

Avi colabs with Home Free for Ring of Fire and really shows his range on this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp2WlaZ-eLiWrrc

[@AwkwardAnxiousJennifer]

"They should do an entire album of this style." PTX Volume IV - Classics has a full version of "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" along with several other great classics, including Bohemian Rhapsody and Imagine, which are both great videos.

[@ItsmeBarry]

That’s fantastic news! Thank you Jennifer. It’s lovely to see you back again 👍

[@ItsmeBarry]

absolutely Pentalicious 👍

[@MelaniePoparad]

I completely agree. It has a very clear definition!

[@susanb4213]

Worth noting that all of their Evolution songs are done in one take. Not saying that they only did this once, but it has to be in one take. I would hate to be the one who messes up, forcing them to scrap it and start over at the begininng! Every one of these singers are amazingly talented. I'd love to hear Mitch sing the whole Danny Boy number. I've seen them in concert 3 times. They are perfect, just perfect every time.

[@skneptun8870]

I saw an interview somewhere and they said that they normally get it first or second try and then to like 2 shots more to see if they can do better

[@elenaserra8900]

I come from Dimash's corner in Barry' s bus to listen to Pentatonix, because I know that the music you react to is going to be of my taste. Thank you!

[@professionalvampire1]

If you're interested, Peter Hollens has a video of himself singing "Danny Boy". It's gorgeous to hear - and the most impressive thing is that it's ALL him. He records songs layer by layer, then combines them into amazing!

[@drieuxkoeppel8152]

And by the way. It’s not “The Pentatonix”- Rather it’s just “Pentatonix”!

[@AnneMajdosz]

Great assortment of music, and PTX can sing all these styles beautifully! Love how the video switches from black and white to color in the 1960s. Great reaction Barry.😊

[@i.luv.2.teach.78]

PTX is such a versatile group! It's amazing how they morphed from one song to the next so seamlessly in this video. Well done, PTX!

[@klayers1555]

Thanks for reviewing this one Barry! For a master class in beat boxing and bass lines watch it again with special attnetion to Kevin Olusola and Avi Kaplan in the front row - amazing how they can make such clean, clever transitions. Oh, and yes, they do their "Evolutions" live in concert. I saw them live last year and they did their most current Evolution of Ariana Grande and it was as stunning live as the studio version. Thanks again, Barry, and have a great day!

[@PugMama64]

Check out their amazing Bohemian Rhapsody video.

[@MaynetteSMore-hf9km]

They do all their Evolutions live and in one take!

[@ItsmeBarry]

Hi Melissa, you are too kind. Thank you so much for watching this with me 👍

[@MikeBenson1982]

"I'm Irish so you're going to be getting the best English". I'm f***ing dead lmao

[@memarti002]

This is fantastic. Barry, you MUST go find Avi Kaplan's "Change on the Rise". He's the bass singer here and he went solo awhile back. Pentatonix managed to find an amazing bass twice in a row. They brought on Matt when Avi left and he's amazing too, but I'm a diehard Avi fan.

[@ItsmeBarry]

Thank you Melissa. I’ve taken note of that song title and I will be reacting to his solo work. I’m really excited to hear everything they have to offer. From their beginning right up to today including solo projects. Thanks a million 👍

[@debhouckscraftycottage9288]

Me too, although I have to admit that Matt did a great job in their very latest "Mad World" cover.

[@gailseatonhumbert9199]

Me three. Avi is a true bass and did not start singing until after his voice had settled. Wonderful tone.

[@trinkab]

They have done all of their songs in concert. You definitely need to watch: Aha LIVE Singapore Star Vista

[@ItsmeBarry]

Will do! Thanks for the great suggestion 👍

[@mmg8823]

Years after they did this, they did a full version of Bohemian Rhapsody. Definitely worth watching. Over the years, there has been only one change in the members: Avi, the bass in this video left the group for personal reasons. Matt, the new bass, is very soulful, to use your word. The Sound of Silence shows this nicely. The other members of the group are the same but it is difficult to see that sometimes. Mitch, on the far left in this video, changes his look every time but it's always him. Kirstin, on the far right in this video, changes her look too but not as frequently but it's always her.

[@ItsmeBarry]

I’m really looking forward to the full version. I just know it will be amazing. I was sad to hear Avi had to leave but I’m pleased to hear that he has solo work for me to discover. I love the original of the sound of silence. I can only imagine how beautiful they will make it sound. It’s great that they change their image, it must be something interesting for their fans to enjoy. Thanks a million for watching this with me and for the great comment @M MG 👍

[@jeannereynoldsdail7940]

[@gregsteele806]

Pentatonix has been performing for almost 10 years now (wow!) and their looks have changed a lot in that time. There has only been one member change though. Avi (the bass in this video) left in 2017, and was replaced by the very talented Matt. Anytime you see different looking girl, or high pitched male singer. It's the same two you see in this video. Just FYI.

[@ItsmeBarry]

I love that I have almost 10 years of music to discover including being introduced to Matt. Thanks a million Greg, I hope you’ll join me by subscribing 👍

[@anitalovett34]

They do everything that they perform in all videos . That's one of the reasons I love them! Love your reviews!

[@sister1976]

Kevins beatboxing in this video is just soooo good! I mean. It's always good, but damn, all the tempo- and style- switches!! So good!

[@calhoun1968]

This was one of their early videos, in which they were pretty much doing everything by themselves. They had won a show, "The Sing Off", season three (I'd lay wager that you have about 30K subscirber's who would love to see you react to that show. You'll really see how far they have come, and grown since then..., And, learn just how little they really had to perfect, and how they are still perfecting their instruments. I love watching them evolve. These Angels constantly strive for self improvement and love working together to see exactly what, if any limits they have on their natural skills...). Any-who..., They won the show, which came with a contract with a recording company. Who, it turned out, had no clue what to do with them, the corporate world had no idea what to do this A Cappella, so they said, no thank you. By the time the company decided that, they had moved to LA. They started their KZbin channel and a Patreon account. Most of those videos, in the early days, were all shot at Mitchy's apartment (Flat...). In fact, they won their first Grammy for their Daft Punk Medley..., They shot the video in Mitch's Kitchen and recorded the audio in his closet. There's a video out there of Scott accepting the award in which he states how stunned they all were for winning the award for just that reason. So..., if you really want to discover just what PTX has to offer, you may wish to think about reacting to their earliest incarnation, there are interviews so you'll really learn a lot about them. Here' the link to the list, complete with judges comments, kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4S3lZV9p8t2gqM Peace, Love and Light Barry!

"Do they do that medley in their concerts?" They used to, I think, but their catalog has to include over a hundred songs and medleys by now, and this is one of their oldest ones. I've never been lucky enough to go to a concert, I've just seen fan cams and the documentary they did - Take Me Home," I think it's called? Somebody will correct me if I'm wrong.

I have heard this one before, but it is always a joy to hear the Pentatonix sing. A capella is great when done properly. I have a CD of a Christmas album from a few years ago. I noted your first reaction to them was to Hallelujah. I am very familiar with the song and the version, but haven’t watched your reaction purely because the song itself makes me cry every time. (When I’m ready for a good cry, I will watch just to catch your reaction which I’m sure was phenomenal. - I’m sure I’ll be laugh/crying the whole time. :)

[@donny1960]

Great reaction (as always). Yes, Pentatonic does do their "Evolution's" in the concerts. There are You Tube "Fan" videos of some of them. (Micheal Jackson being one). These "Evolution" videos are what put Pentatonix on the "map". They are very impressive and they cover everyone from Beyonce to Rhianna to Ariana Grande. Can't wait for your next reaction. (By the way, my favorite Artists of all time are ABBA, Pentatonix and Dimash. So it's as if your reactions have been tailor made for me. THANKS).

[@ItsmeBarry]

I can understand how these really showcased their talents. They are very impressive. I’m so excited to discover everything you listed by them and much more. You clearly have great taste in music. I’m hoping to make some serious ABBA reactions soon rather than my fun heavily edited videos that I made a few months ago. I’m so pleased you’ll be joining me on my musical journey.

♥️ ya Barry, such great 🎶 reactions. Now that ur exploring great 🎼 Please consider Camilo Sesto, Gethsemane, (Andrew Lloyd Webber, composer of JCSS said best he’s heard) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKizfmOQZr9_a68 - Done in 1977, not in the musical but as a stand alone performance on Spanish TV.

[@alariepoet8015]

This was very early in their career. The trio in the back row were all just 19 years old. They'd gone to a high school for the arts and appeared in musical theater together in Texas. They won a TV competition for a cappella groups called The Sing Off, that launched their career. Unfortunately, the recording company cancelled their contract for an album (the winning prize). They were determined, so they began putting videos like this on KZbin until the reactions were so numerous that a recording company took them on. They were my evening music for several years until the summer of 2017 when bass Avi Kaplan decided to leave the group. They were on tour, so had no time to perform, look for a new bass, AND make new recordings, so fortunately, Dimash appeared with S.O.S. on The Singer. Now he is unrivaled as my go to entertainment, but I still check in on Pentatonix when I can pull myself away from Dimash's voice.

[@ItsmeBarry]

@@alariepoet8015 thank you for that great info. I knew they looked younger in this clip but I would never have thought they were that young. I hoping to go right back to the beginning like I did with Dimash and enjoy their first performances. I’m so happy you will be joining me on my Dimash and Pentatonix journey 👍

I think you would enjoy their cover of ‘Gold’, also done in one take. Mitch has the lead and is incredible. And if you haven’t already done it, check out their cover of ‘Aha’ from their performance at the Star Vista in Singapore. Shot by a fan, but still very good sound, though it doesn’t do a good job of recording Avi’s low note in the beginning. Something to be aware of; it looks like there are only 4 of them on stage, but that’s because Kevin had just done a cello solo and was putting her away (her name is Beyoncé). You’ll see Mitch move to the center of the stage as he starts his solo and that’s when Kevin comes on stage. The person filming it is very focused on Mitch so you won’t see Kevin. You can hear him though.

This is their first evolution video, note the single reliable microphone at the center that recorded it all. Yup, recorded in one take - well before recording they have of course studied the music and previously rehearsed. You're very colorful!

[@ItsmeBarry]

It’s incredible that they do this in one full take. Thank you for your kind words Beth. I hope you’ll join me on my other PTX reactions 👍

[@ccgena]

You should react to Pentatonix version of Hit the Road Jack. Avi blows the speakers live. Enjoy

[@marymichele340]

Think this is third time I’ve watched this! Love your reactions Barry!

[@ItsmeBarry]

That’s very kind of you. Thank you so much @Mary Michele

[@mistique77]

I haven't seen that one before 😂 it was absolutely fun and qualitatious!!! Loved watching it with you 😉💋🤗 Can't wait to hopefully watch things like this with you one day 😉♥️💖💕💋🤗 All my love, your Misty Lou 🌞🙏💯💗💜

[@ItsmeBarry]

Hi Misti, I’m glad you enjoyed this fun video with me. Thanks a million as always 👍

[@marymichele340]

Watching again

[@chrisclarke754]

If you ever really want to be blown away by Mitch's (the "tenor" but actually a countertenor) voice and vocal control, you might try reacting to PTX's cover of Gold by Kiiara

[@ItsmeBarry]

I think Mitch has such a beautiful voice. I’m really looking forward to reacting to your great suggestion. I hope you’ll join me for all my my PTX reactions. Thanks a million Chris 👍

[@amandasamson4513]

yes, the more pentatonix you do the more Pentaholics will subscribe to your channel. we love them. New subscriber here .

[@ItsmeBarry]

Well, they won’t be disappointed. I’ll be reacting to every song they have ever sung and every different performance of those songs. I’ve become a fan very quickly. They are AMAZING. Thanks a million Amanda for watching this video with me and thanks a Billion for subscribing 👍

[@phyllisthomas1736]

Thank you for this viewing that was raw and great!

[@leighc9004]

I'm late to the party, as usual, *sigh* but just subscribed. Love it, love Pentatonix. Please continue, sir

[@perahharding8694]

Old Man River did it for me, and Stand By Me, this medley was very inspirational and goes to show what real singers can do musically. Love your reactions and that you’re Irish when they sang Danny Boy. Great video as usual. If you are looking for someone incredibly talented check out Chinese performer Hua Chenyu on KZbin. Alternative MandoRock/ Chinese Classical singer and Pianist. His performance with Lang Lang the worlds best pianist is a visual and sensational show of pure musical genius. Thanks for your input and reactions for all your videos.

[@davidbangtson3109]

Just have to say it again. I love the double play way you approach reacting. PTX is just the best, right up there with Dimash Kudaibergen in my book!

[@Maerahn]

I live pretty near to Chatham, so yeah, your English is DEFINITELY quality! 😁 While I love their 'official' videos, what I love about these casual ones is how much they look like they're having fun - like this is just a fun jamming session that we've been invited to sneak in and watch. And the big thing they pride themselves on is only recording songs they can perform live to an equal standard, so, when you go to their concerts, you're guaranteed the same experience. Well actually, no - a BETTER experience, because they do like to throw in a lot of extra fun, improvised stuff. (They're also adorable people. They occasionally do free performances in local children's hospital wards and schools, and have worked with many charities over the years as well.)

[@ItsmeBarry]

Yes I’m glad these have been my first two videos because I’ve got to experience two sides to them in a short period of time. It’s fantastic how they blend vocally and how they arranged this medley. I hope I can see them live when this terrible time is behind us. I’m looking forward to getting to know the people of Pentatonix as much as the music. Thank you again Maerahn 👍

[@tH-ym3nw]

I need a Barry "Hello! Are ya there? How ya's keepin'?" ringtone.

[@ItsmeBarry]

Some of my fellow "tubers" charge for short personal “hello videos” 😂maybe I should start a phone message service Such a lovely comment, thank you so much t H

[@tH-ym3nw]

@@ItsmeBarry honestly, thank you Barry. Just hearing the "It's me, Barry" at the beginning of your videos is such a mood lifter. I appreciate you giving us your time ❤

[@user-ir7ng5pv4w]

Can sing very good guys

[@Meg-tj8ev]

Loved their video and your reaction!

[@ItsmeBarry]

Hi Meg, As like to say, they are TOO talented. Thanks a million for watching this with me.

[@judith2412]

Great, Barry ! 👏💕🇳🇴

[@ItsmeBarry]

Takk en million Judith 👍

[@christellekhalil1738]

Beautiful reaction!! I read that you took note of Avi Kaplan’s song “Change on the rise”, but I also want to add “Fields and pier”. A very beautiful song and it’s from his first EP that wad released in 2017.

[@ItsmeBarry]

Hi Christelle, thank you for your kind words. Avi has an amazing voice and from the videos I’ve already reacted to (including the ones I have yet to post) his voice stands out and is a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for the great suggestion I look forward to reacting to it. Thanks a million Christelle 👍

[@christellekhalil1738]

Thanks to you! And I totally agree, Avi’s voice is something else and one of my favorite ones.

[@gailseatonhumbert9199]

I adore that one as well. Avi harmonizing with Kevin on cello is a different experience entirely.
