@@eveline5858 Eveline your breakfast sounded so good. You are right about us needing lessons all of the time. I certainly got mine yesterday. I found out that she was sandwiched between two vehicles and that the one behind her was a pickup truck that shoved her into the back of the vehicle in front of her. Thankfully she is not hurt. So now I must take that lesson and the one from Pat and make them make a difference. 😊

@@Mycophile11 Yes, luckily it ended well! Did you check if everything is ok after a few hours? 😘

[@larrywt656]

Going back to the early days for this one, Barry! Yes, it's an original, written by Avi and Kevin. In the shots where the "snow" is "falling upwards", the group members taught themselves to lip synch the lyrics backwards so the shots would match. One of their best originals that I don't think you've reacted to yet is Sing. Very catchy song and fun video, full of surprise celebrity fan cameos.

[@heidifruchtl354]

I heard that Mitch would take over the stomp pad for Kevin when Kevin was rapping his part during concerts. There's a great 2.5 minute video.

[@fmcm7715]

Didn’t know about the backward lip syncing! Very impressive.

[@ohnhai]

Yup you need to react to 'Sing'

[@annfahy9089]

Great group! What part of Ireland are you from Barry?

[@2436golden]

Where do people get these stories? Not true.

[@AnneMajdosz]

I left a comment here some time ago, but I just have to write another. This song is gorgeous and is one of my favorites. I love their original songs... they are so talented! Lovely reaction B☘.

[@AnneMajdosz]

WOW! Such a beautiful song. I had to listen to it several times to take it all in. Great review Barry. ❤

[@AnneMajdosz]

I'm listening to The best of Clannad. Celtic music for deep relaxation on KZbin. Very nice. Thanks for mentioning them.

[@jessiestout703]

It’s an absolute gorgeous song. Their harmonies melt me❤️❤️❤️thank you Barry, I love watching your reactions. Hope all is good with you ❤️

[@sjmk70usa]

Double is twice the joy!

[@susanpeterson9947]

There is by far more use of dissonance in this song than in any of their other songs. So haunting and beautiful.

[@attilathemom7518]

The beautifully layered tone and texture of their voices, the warm round vowels, the playing with dissonance to add intensity that resolves so gently and beautifully. This has always been one of my favorite songs by them.

[@BladeCPL]

Great to see you back Barry.

[@cherylfrady4602]

I love the double vids with your reactions! Barry babe riding the Barry bus 🤣🚐

[@gsnuffy3]

Beautiful , soulful, peaceful!! Pentatonix keeps getting better and better just when you think that’s impossible! Good to see you up and running, Barry! From your always “Barry Babe” keep on “keepin on”

[@StorytimeWithLana]

Awesome! We have missed you, Barry.

[@terrilabeth]

They can sing anything. You have the songs where they have individual parts and then these moments where they are all together, no beatboxing, and it is gorgeous. Other than that one emoji…. 😢 And my normal one ❤️

[@My2ndnephew]

So good to see you! Missed you.

[@mosaiceyes2020]

Missed you, Barry. Happy to see you back!

Barry, it's me, one of your USA-passengers-on-the-Barry-bus! So good to see you, again. I had checked your channel over the past weekend, since you hadn't appeared in my notifications for a few weeks. Hope you are doing well and enjoying the music. Hmmmm...and, someday, you will share some of your own music with us, yes? Yes????

[@patwood7011]

I listened to this over at the PTX channel, sitting in my chair with my eyes closed, and felt all the irritations of the day fade away. Thanks. Glad you are back? You are back right?

[@Korbin_Arts]

It is in fact an original, written by Kevin and Avi. And while the video is simple, creating it was anything but. To get the effect of the snow falling upwards, they lip synced the segment BACKWARDS and then put the video in reverse in editing.

[@danniblusanni]

So glad to see you again! :) xxx

[@ihorzavada8020]

your reactions are the best! thanks.

[@polythenepam6461]

I can't even tell you how many times I have listened to this song. Possibly more than every other PTX song combined? When I say it's my favorite, I mean it. It's exquisite.

We missed you!! So glad to see you back!

[@melp.1942]

Barry! I have missed you so much! I truly hope you are doing okay. I am a subscriber. (for a few months now) You have been missed. Great reaction as always! I especially love when you are lost in the music and you stop and look up right into the camera - your look conveys so much! A smirk, a connection, etc. You, Barry, are Qualitatious!

[@Daniel_Callie]

Love your channel!

[@ItsmeBarry]

Thank you very much.

[@ItsmeBarry]

It was Lovely chatting to you all during the premier. I know I say this is my first original song by Pentatonix but I mean not a Christmas song. I’ve heard two lovely original Christmas numbers by my talented buddies. As I say in the video “is there anything they can’t do?” Please subscribe, like and leave a comment, all three of those things helps KZbin fall in love with me and will help them push my channel and in turn promote Pentatonix even more. Now for my little question... would you rather I just make a single reaction (like my hallelujah reaction video) or keep with the double view format?

[@ellaalbios4806]

I'll take a double by Pentatonix any day.

[@2freezefam]

I love when you do the double video. I'm glad you are back!

[@Bonofox1]

I LOVE the double format!!😃👍 Can I suggest PTX covers of Cheerleader Happy Problem No Attention Sweater weather Happy Now Favorite Things

[@kristinhowk8231]

I like the double video format, but I know it’s a lot more work to produce. So whatever works for you.

[@ymw6607]

I also love the double format that you do, and would prefer it, if it's not too much extra effort on your part. Your comments sometimes help me to pick up on little things that they do that I might not have otherwise noticed, so thank you ~ and I'm glad your back!!!!

[@Kristina_Rose]

I feel so content - listening to your reaction felt like coming home. So glad you are back!

[@hilarymol6607]

YES! You've solved a mystery I've been kicking around since I first heard this song years ago. The warmth and other-earthliness was immediately apparent to me, but there was a quality of the music that I couldn't quite put my finger on it. It felt like a combination of lullaby from hundreds of years ago, and that beautiful call of a penny whistle played in the near distance. CELTIC. You finally named that mystery element of this piece for me. A beautiful blanket of sound with gorgeous Celtic thread woven throughout.

[@catharineohlsen5995]

This song is the balm of my heart. I listen to it when ever I can.

[@inespereira2983]

[@mariethemagnificent2000]

It is one of my very favorites of their originals. I do love Sing! for completely different reasons!

[@davidbangtson3109]

So delighted to be here for the premier. You are at the top of the reactor mountain and deserve that position! Love your comments and your humor, the whole thing. I love the split in two concept.

[@cliles6764]

Welcome back! You've been missed! As others have said, yes, it is an original by Avi, Kevin and Ben but in my humble opinion, the majority of the Celtic feel came from Avi, who's love of the ancient magic of the Celts ( and castles and dragons and bass notes and barbeque) had a large influence...although they (and I mean all of the creative force of Pentatonix) love all types of music, the main ballad/romance influence of the group at that time was Avi supported of course, by all the gifted members which includes Ben Bram.

[@shilohauraable]

Love Clannad! 💖

[@toon25121966]

Oooh you will love this one Barry! Welcome back🥰

When I first saw the title I thought it was going to be the Bryan Adams song. I was pleased that it was something entirely different. I think they have proven that they can sing anything.

[@christinamorris1594]

I don’t get why people say there’s no beat. That’s just not true. There is definitely a meter, a beat to this beautiful song, which I think is obvious. The song has a lovely, beautiful cadence to it.

[@trishradloff2421]

But the beat is not overt.

Great to see you again! Scott wrote a wonderful lullaby for his nephew and asked Avi to sing the solo. It shows off Avi's middle to upper range. There is no video but it is well worth hearing LIGHT IN THE HALLWAY kzbin.info/www/bejne/rp3Toax4f81_pMU

Ik ben je vorige keer vergeten te ✍🏼 schrijven Barry, dat ik het leerzamer en fijner zou vinden!! 👌🏽 Als je de MUZIEK van o.a. Pentatonix en Dimash en ABBA‼️ 👊🏽 twéémaal ons laat beluisteren alsjeblieft?!? De éérste keer is geheel en al ..... 🙂 ter ontspanning om te horen 📣 en om rustig tot ons door te laten dringen zonder iets te moeten. En bij de twééde maal luisteren we meer intensiéver 🧐 en technischer:) omdat jóuw zeer deskundige bewoordingen erbij!! Ons op punten in de muziek🎵🎶 attendeert waar wij waarschijnlijk anders niét op gelet hadden?! ☃️

[@lynettepascua4730]

First and most important We Missed You, I say we must have a mouse in my pocket or it could just be all the other comments about missing you, we are glad you are back!!!!! Loved the reaction and the song. But I am missing you reacting to Angelina Jordan, How about reacting to "I Put A Spell On You" at 9 years or "Feeling Good" at 10 years or "A Million Years Ago" at 11 years or her first original "What Is Life" at 12, or "Bohemian Rhapsody at 13 or her last original "Million Miles"(There is a live studio now) at 14, all are wonderful.

I'm susbscribed! Best friends legally!

[@mcginnig]

Yep, Avi is a missing element from the new PTX. They really needed a classical Bass to fit in but went with Mat. Now they seem to be more produced that A Cappella. His solo career has some good things but will never be as great as PTX.

[@bradclifton5248]

Ptx have been known to cause some plumbing leaks.

[@pekieboo]

That's hilarious! Every tot should announce themselves loudly, everywhere they go: "It's ME, Barry!"

[@melissacoviello2886]

That is the cutest

[@tracygarrett3952]

I would love to watch that!!!

[@Maerahn]

This is definitely one of their most 'different' songs; no regular 'beat' to the melody and therefore, with it, no beatboxing. That makes it damn hard to keep time, even with actual musical instruments, so to do it with just their voices shows just how insanely in sync they are with each other. And I reckon they could actually fix your plumbing as well; they'd just sing to your faulty pipework and it would just go "Ah, go on then, you sound lovely, so we'll behave from now on."

[@ellenhulslander2897]

Hmmmm, yes, yes, yes! Widout any furder ado.....MORE BARRY!! 🤣🤣🤣 My days are a little brighter again!

[@Nighthawk429]

They would often perform this song off-mic at their concerts. They would stand at the edge of the stage and sing their hearts out. And you could hear every word from every corner of the concert hall, the soft and gentle parts, and (of course) the belting parts. Always a magical experience to be in the audience for that (which I was).

[@stevensallsorts]

No, thank you was an original, so your second original in a row, do a trilogy with " sing "

[@igman3878]

Missed you Barry!!! So glad you are back. Great reaction. This is one of my all time favorites. As was mentioned before this was written by Avi and Kevin. All of their originals have been written by them. They have a new album of originals coming out Feb 12 called The Lucky Ones...Yay! Thanks for the review . Stay well my friend.

[@michelejohnson7514]

Did you catch Avi being “Bassy Boy” in most of the song but when he, Mitch, and Scott sing their three-part harmony how he jumped up an octave for that? Brilliant. Also, be sure to read the lyrics for this. I mean, if you want your heart to break even more....

[@WolfLover01211]

So excited you are back Barry! Missed your amazing content. Looking forward to the 1st! 😃

[@Dadabba]

Yeah! Barry is back! We have missed you & your reactions. You are starting with a good one & may need the tissues. See you tomorrow.

[@chrissynovful]

To hear Kevin in this arrangement as another vocalist is nice. Avi and Mitch singing highs and lows together is gorgeous. The whole thing is chef 💋. Side note, I want Barry's voice as a ring tone.

[@vidsorama2]

Thank you for reacting to this Pentatonix original. Kevin and Avi were the main writers but the others and Ben all helped so they all have writing credit. I love the song and video. It is nice having you back to reacting to Pentatonix. You were missed. More PTX please. Please react to official videos of PTX originals "Can't Sleep Love" and "Sing".

[@cherylhowe1541]

I missed you, Barry! This is a favorite of mine. I've listened to it over a hundred times but when they hit the 2 chords on "free" the tears start flowing. This and their Amazing Grace will be played when my ashes are spread in the Great Smoky Mtns in Tennessee.

[@bridgethaines7127]

This was written by Avi and Kevin :D

[@charlottevan_8]

From what I've read, Kevin had the concept for the beginning, and then Avi pretty much wrote the rest. It does indeed sound like Avi writing, both music and lyrics. And apparently Ben Bram worked on the final arrangement.

[@trishradloff8817]

Light in the Hallway is another lovely original. Written by Scott for his Nephew.

[@debhouckscraftycottage9288]

Avi and Kevin wrote it - yes it is their original. I think Avi's voice lends the warmth to it. This is a favorite of mine. Thanks for the reaction and welcome back! Hope all is well with you!

[@dishmurphy5754]

There are few songs where we get 5 part harmony but this is one of my favorites. If I’m right, Kevin & Avi wrote the song. I think that’s why the base is so strong. I love Mitch here. Even though you can hear the others, Mitch is so beautiful here. The breaking down the gates of heaven part is so strong it almost takes my breath away. Interesting comparison to Clannad. I listened again & can hear what you meant. Another great reaction Barry. Another original is Sing it will pick up anyone dragging thru the day. Then Come Along. ☮️💟😷

[@annemitchell975]

I heard a line in a Hank Williams song "Mister can you make folks feel what you feel inside?" Well, Pentatonix, mission accomplished! I felt all the feels with this song. The hairs on my arms and neck were bristling, tears in my eyes, breathless at times, just so gorgeous. Their harmonies are unmatched, so soft and lyrical in this piece. Thank you for bringing this song to my attention. Somehow, I had not heard it before, though don't know how that was possible! Just lovely!

[@catherinemichel6673]

Beautiful, yes but...to me there is a deeper meaning in the lyrics. It speaks to me of a lost love that never was found again. It seems to be saying that one member died and the remaining member is beseeching heaven and earth to get them back. "I will Break down the gates of heaven...a Thousand angels are waiting for me" speaks to me of the desperation of the one who lived is willing to do anything to regain their lost love, even challenge heaven. It takes my mind to those I've lost and makes me miss them all the more. It takes me to the one of whose love I could never speak, but only dream of in silence... and what I would do to see him, speak to him once more.

[@MelaniePoparad]

Oh I cannot wait for this masterpiece to grace your ears!

[@jeanmiller2747]

Welcome back, Barry! :) I think Avi and Kevin wrote it - I could be wrong. I'm sure the others had some input on the arrangement. Love this gorgeous song.

[@melissacoviello2886]

Mitch’s tone is so sweet and more angelic than usual, and that’s saying something. Everyone was phenomenal. But mitch’s voice made me want to cry.

[@StorytimeWithLana]

A hauntingly beautiful song, Barry. The underlying bass and harmonies, the slowness of each word stilling time, defining the meaning of the song, creating an ache that deepens with each note. Again, very beautiful song. Thanks for asking us to listen again.

Thanks for your reactions ! This is such a passionate song ! Their newest original just came up. A video from Jimmy Kimmel's show, THE LUCKY ONES ! It's an original, with a clear message, on how they have come from TX to now, and how lucky they feel, ten years later. Thanks you :)
