[@PtxXtp]

It didn’t actually take them 5 years to work on the song. It took them five years to decide they were actually ready to attempt the song. They had talked about it earlier in their career and thought it was too iconic of a song and were worried they wouldn’t be able to do it justice. As they grew mentally and vocally they decided to give it a try. So glad they did.

[@bill.godwin-austen]

I think that's probably the case. They released it in 2017, so it was probably arranged and recorded in 2016, which was 5 years after they were formed as Pentatonix by adding Avi & Kevin to "The Trio". It was probably something they had been thinking about trying sometime from the beginning, but wanted to be sure they had the right concept before committing to doing it. They did a snippet of it in their "Evolution of Music" in 2013.

[@mikegoodwin2386]

There's a snippet of "Bohemian Rhapsody" in their "Evolution of Music" video, which was from waaay back. So I bet the idea had been kicked around for a long time. But it was years before they felt they could do justice to the song as a whole.

[@mikegoodwin2386]

@@bill.godwin-austen haha. I just wrote something very similar, even using some of the same words, before reading your reply. Great minds, or something like that.

[@PtxXtp]

@@mikegoodwin2386I'm very aware of the little snippet from evolution of music. That small part hardly compares to them feeling comfortable to do the whole song. They added it to the evolution because that was a huge song from that time period. I was just clarifying that they didn't physically work on and practice the arrangement for 5 years which is the way the reactors made it sound from reading the comment that they got the info from. In fact there was a livestream from 2014 or 2015 and ptx were asked if they would ever do it or if there was a song they'd never try. At the time Scott said they would never attempt bohemian Rhapsody just because it was too iconic and that's just a song you don't mess with. I guess they changed their mind over time.

[@mikegoodwin2386]

@@PtxXtp I was not disagreeing with you. Just mentioning that they may have been thinking about it for some time but probably not actually practicing it or working on arrangements or whatever. . . . Adding to your comment, not debating it.

[@judyoyhenart1347]

The couch is an homage to the start of Pentatonix - Mitch, Kirstie and Scott sitting on a couch and making KZbin videos - in High School, I believe.

[@PtxXtp]

Almost. It’s about all of pentatonix sitting on the couch to record videos with an iPad to get their name out there after being dropped by the record label they had won from winning the sing off. The label didn’t think they could have any success with a cappella music so they dropped them right after they had won the show and moved to LA.. They decided to persue their career anyway on their with the little resources they had. Their apartments, a couch and an iPad.

[@jlelliotton]

I was lucky enough to see Queen live once. I will forever be a Queen (and Freddy Mercury) fan, but Mitch was born to sing this.

[@seniorsperspective5967]

Me too. I had no idea what I was seeing at the time.

[@lindamvernon]

And when the Pentatonix version was realeased Brian May shared it on his social media. On Twitter he said (caps his): "GREAT VERSION. Enjoy."

[@liviusss]

@@lindamvernon That makes me feel so happy for Pentatonix, I mean, how amazing is Brian May sharing their version?!

[@heinleinreader]

Mitch puts his heart and soul into the song, but does so with the same apparent simple ease that Freddie Mercury did. There are many similarities between the two of them.

[@onomemisan]

Let me break down a bit for you guys... 1. Dance of the Sugar Fairy - no words yet it was Epic and they got an award for it! 2. Over the River - they took a regular Christmas Carol and turned it into a celtic epic musical piece... And we got to see Kevin play the cello! 3. 12 days of Christmas - after listening to their version you will NEVER want to listen to any other version again! 4. Oh come all ye faithful - they fully captured the joy of the lyrics and gave it a vibrant African feel! Never heard a version of this song ANYWHERE! 5. Sound of silence - the vocals here were RIDICULOUS! 6. New rules + are you that somebody - they did a mesh up we did not think possible. Plus you will definitely get Kevin slapped and Matt punched with this one!

[@frinney12]

I will second this list.

[@ella7637]

Couldn't prepare a better list myself! 👏👏👏

[@diarosea]

I loooove Sound od silence its soo good it almost hurt my soul 🥰

[@G-grandma_Army]

Over the River may be the one PTX song that I didn’t immediately like. it took me a while to warm up To it, but I heard them do it Live and loved it.

[@dalantis8547]

Yesss sound if silence by pentatonix is fantastic!!!!

[@treasuremoore7544]

Yes!! Please do Sound of Silence!!!

[@SuperSgtash]

Love your reactions. I would loveto see yallreact to Home Free and Voiceplay. They are 2 accapella groups who are equally as talented as Pentatonix. It will continue to blow your mind.

[@jlelliotton]

Remember for the live performance, this was their encore at the end of a long night of singing. That they could do this LIVE after all that effort is absolutely amazing.

[@larrygranbois4164]

Agree Jim plus I was privileged to see their live performance but it was in a football stadium and it still was almost as good as their official video performance.

[@lumosmentis]

I've seen them live 3 times. This has been their encore the song 2/3 times. Freaking phenomenal every time

[@jimk9860]

Next -- "The Prayer." Another PTX upgrade. Mitch's covers Celine's portion--purely angelic! No one can sing this better!

[@peterkara7279]

BIG YES TO THIS!!!! MAKES ME CRY EVERY TIME

[@linda6987]

ME TOO! The Prayer, Hallelujah and Mary Did Know, all make me cry - every time

For something completely different, try The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. Another Grammy award winner

[@unimatrix0169]

Industry: A song with no words sung by a group with no instruments; IMPOSSIBLE Pentatonix: Hold My Grammy

[@tracey2156]

I highly recommend their version of John Lennon's Imagine, it is probably the best version, other than the original, I've ever heard of the song. They don't just cover it, they make it their own.

[@maikeeule4489]

I definitively second this! Avi singing ;)

[@edyta_soko]

Honestly I’m not a fan of John Lenon although I do appreciate his mission and all that…. But I absolutely adore PTX take on Imagine. On my playlist for years

[@jeandoten1510]

@@edyta_soko I agree. I'm not a big fan of the original ( I kind of resent John and Yoko being preachy) but Pentatonix turned it into not only a rich and beautiful song but a sincere social commentary.

[@MJ-he6gk]

YES!

[@thechomiji]

Yes, and that would be perfect for Pride Month.

[@fahquin]

"Jared I'm getting beat up here." You guys crack me up, but also I love that your reactions are so thoughtful and well-researched beforehand.

[@kiraalldredge48]

Sound of Silence is actually my very favorite cover of Pentatonix. Also, a great introduction to Matt.

[@ambergarner8471]

I agree with many others: Gold is a great next pick. The original is an overly produced heavy on synth sound and they replicate it with their mouths. Also, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. No words but won them a grammy!

[@susanb4213]

An electrical "sound" was added to Mitch's vocals on the guitar solo-Kevin said it once in an interview. But live he makes it sound very close to this.

[@Lupin788]

Speaking of Grammys, their second Grammy was for Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy from the Tchaikovsky ballet "The Nutcracker". The award was for arrangement but clearly their performance of it was instrumental (ahem) in convincing Grammy voters how effectively they could translate an instrumental piece of music into an a cappella tour-de-force.

[@df5199]

Mitch can make all sorts of sounds. There’s a video where Mitch mimics the sound of a dry board marker. Kirstin had her leg in a cast for a few months but she didn’t let her stop performing. Notice that in their video , Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree, she remains stationary. Recommend their cover of Havana.

[@thechomiji]

"Pentatonix Mimicking Things" - kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHKYkIqBgM6Gd7s

[@packerkats7578]

I think an Evolution video should be next. Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Ariana Grande, pick one that speaks to you-there’s a bunch of them. They literally rip through an artists greatest hits in 6-ish minutes. Evolution recordings are live, one-take performances. It’s insane. Great reactions guys. Keep ‘em coming!

[@heidi_d]

Yep! To see Mitch “shapeshift” definitely check out the MJ evolution!

[@staciemoisa4884]

Great reaction. They really did stay true to the original. Even the part "easy come, easy go, little high, little low" switches right to left in your headphones as does the original. Perfect tribute to Queen.

[@beccaHbell]

Mitch has an amazing ear - there’s a video on his mimic skills. Saw an interview of somebody asking how he created this cover of the guitar solo, he states you just listen to a lot of guitars and make the sound. He definitely takes on vibe of those he covers - Freddie, Ariana, Rihanna, Lady Gaga come to mind.

[@Fantastikitty]

One thing to realize about Queen is that they refused to perform with any sort of backing track. When they did Bohemian Rhapsody live, they WALKED OFF THE STAGE for the opera section and just let the tape roll because they couldn't do it live. Then Freddie Mercury and the rest of the band got to come blazing in for the hard rock section, which was a glorious entrance because they were the masters of theatricality. Pentatonix doesn't have to leave the stage. I've seen them do it live on tour.

[@PtxXtp]

Another fun thing to think about is Mitch does on stage what it took Queen 3 different members to do. He does lead vocal,the guitar solo and the high note. Queen used Freddie, Brian and roger for those parts.

[@Fantastikitty]

@@PtxXtp absolutely! Also, when the Freddie Mercury tribute concert came about in the early 90s, it took two guys to be Freddie in that song, and the band STILL had to walk offstage for the opera part.

You won't be disappointed with any one of their songs. They just have the "IT" factor. Extremely talented!

[@ellenhulslander2897]

💝 If you would like a demonstration of how they can transform a song, I suggest "Gold" by Kiara. Listening to as much of the original as you can stand, is a must. I love that you delve into the artists and the songs. SO much to discover.

[@kenkahuna]

Yes! After listening to Pentatonix singing Gold, I had to listen to the original to realise that Mitch was replicating all the electronic sound effects.

[@kayecastleman6353]

Absolutely! It's one of their most dramatic upgrades. The skills they each bring to the table are on full display. And yet, they make it look effortless...

[@boballen818]

Killer version

It HAS to be Gold next. Agree the original is average but I could cheerfully listen to their upgrade a million times over

[@annarasmus8737]

Yeah, it's total gold....

[@violetf.2025]

Next one Gold 📀 (Kiiara Cover) please. It's so pure, raw, relaxed, very clean style and Mitch has the lead 😍. I know you will love it! Aha live Singapore is still too early IMHO. Keep it as the cherry on the cream cake after some more songs 😉

[@tundiel]

Agree totally! We all want 'A-ha', but not this early on the PTX journey!

[@mariaracine6553]

Yup. “Aha! Star Vista” is a fan favorite, but definitely put that one in your back pocket for a bit. It’s one to savor once you’re familiar with them.

[@annicajakobsson]

You should check out their cover of Aha, both the video and them doing it live in Singapore! Also, Gold, Say something, Problem and Dance of the Sugar plum fairy. Also, check out some of Avi’s solo music, much more folk/americana but equally impressive!

[@megjones7860]

Agree on Aha, the music video first then the live version from Singapore Vista. Also, Can't Sleep Love music video then the live version from Popspring 2016. Also, No, the music video then the liver version where Mitch is wearing a black bow tie. Yes, to Gold, Problem and Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

The best researched and entertaining reaction I have ever watched for the best acapella group there is! Thank you! I would love to see your reaction to Pop Spring 2016, Gold, Sound of Silence, and Imagine and so many others, but I will stop there for now. Pop Spring 2016 has 3 original songs and their evolution of Michael Jackson arrangement performed live in concert at a musical festival in Japan. The sound quality is excellent and their original songs are sooo good. I hope you go deep into the PTX rabbit hole. It is all so amazing and your reactions are wonderful!

[@heidifruchtl354]

I saw PTX do this live. Fabulous. Mitch has a lot of anxiety. He's been bullied in his youth for his voice. He is a national treasure. I'm giggling like crazy. Just consider. You brought this up, PTX got their first Grammy on a $400 budget. They have rented an airport terminal now. The one PTX video that you should have medical protection for is the Aha! Singapore star Vista. That is the ultimate Mitch slap. Has been known to do serious damage. Watch the official video first, all of the way to the end. The Singapore video was filmed on a cell phone, it's definitely a fan video, and Avi does damage to at least one of the speakers, so the audio isn't as good. But you are not ready for the Singapore video yet. Wait. Pentaholics love to watch reactors who aren't, but seriously, it has done damage to reactors. Enjoy

[@garyco766]

I never understand why this gets recommended so much. The audio quality is bad enough to basically ruin it.

[@hernameispekka_Rebecca]

@@garyco766 It's not recommended for audio quality. Noone watches a fan-cam for audio quality. You watch for a small approximation of the experience of seeing them on stage. You watch it for their facial expressions, their interactions with eachother and the fans, the changes they make in the songs, the mess ups, the emotions. If you want to hear a song with perfect audio you can just put on the studio version.

[@heidifruchtl354]

@@garyco766 because Mitch just goes off. He's admitted that he was jet lagged, drank 2 red bulls, and they hit during this song. Plus, Avi's note that pretty much blew the speaker is just phenomenal. I love the smile Mitch has at the end. He knows that he gave good show. I've seen them live, but this was better.

[@susanpeterson9947]

Hi guys, love your PTX reactions. Speaking of Avi’s singing voice, I recommend that you check out their original song Light In The Hallway. Scott wrote it as a lullaby for his infant nephew, but he said as he was creating it he could only imagine Avi singing it. It’s a beautiful song [which I sing to my little granddaughter, she loves it too!]. Edited to add, perhaps for another season, also put Silent Night on your list. Avi arranged it, they sing it without mics in the hallway of a stone church, and it’s simply amazing. 🌟

[@Flipstylee6]

Queen, and this song specifically, was absolutely massive.

[@ShinyElfriend]

Seriously, your reactions are incredible. Couple of things. Oh my, definitely Gold! Its very high on my favorites list - of course they have no "meh" performances. They win every round, as you noticed. The first time you can catch the wa-wa is in the Sing Off competition when they do a performance of "Let's Get it On." He also does a great wa-wa in their original song, "Can't Sleep Love." I suggest the Popspring 2016 version (second song, the video has three originals plus the Evolution of Michael Jackson live, filmed and recorded by MTV, so very high quality). I suggest that version because the official video doesn't have Mitch rapping, and that is a thing to behold. Speaking of which, he really does morf, as you said, for proof you can check out Superfruit's (Scott & Mitch) version of "Feeling Myself," Superfruit's cover of Defying Gravity (from Wicked), and Pentatonix's "Evolution of Rihanna," as well as Superfruit's "Rihanna's Anti Medley." I've never seen a reactor do the two Rihanna versions in one video, thar would be cool. Pentatonix and Superfruit also both did Lady Gaga Evolution/Medley, and another great combo reaction might be PTX's "Evolution of Ariana Grande" and their cover of "Problem" which Ariana loved and flipped over on her social media. Ok, that's enough from me, lol. Can't wait for you to continue!

[@tundiel]

Yep, you're officially Pentaholics now! Absolutely loved your reaction to the guitar solo. Someone once called it the 'Grassi Guitar', and how perfect is that? Anywhere you go will impress you, though I will say that although everyone recommends 'A-ha' live at the Star Vista in Singapore, I think that should be after two or three more reactions. Absolutely do the official video and then the live, as the live audio is patchy as it's fan made. It's such a legendary performance that you don't care though. All Pentaholics want reactors to do this one, but I think you need to work up to it. Mitch Slaps, Avi Kicks and Kevin KO'd all around. Imagine is a masterpiece. As is Sound of Silence. But their early stuff gets overlooked, and has gems such as 'Royals', and 'La La Latch'. If you don't think it's strange to do a Christmas song in the summer, their 'Carol of the Bells' is astonishing. The original music video has Avi, and their live from their 2021 Christmas special has Matt and is amazeballs. Sorry for the lengthy comment. I've really enjoyed your PTX reactions, and appreciate all the research you do! P.S. for Mitch ear candy, try his solo cover of Billie Eilish's 'Your Power'. It'll melt your ears, brains and hearts, and that's a promise.😍

17:43 Sounds like you’re on your way to a case of PTXD. It’s quite comfortable to live with, though. From the Mitch slaps, to the Avi gut wrenches, from K. O. KO’ing with the kicks, to the constant chills of the harmonics at the top end, and even Scott throwing in some shell shocks, from covering Avi’s low end while Avi takes lead (like Hallelujah), or soaring higher than Mitch (in Superfruit’s rendition of Defying Gravity from the musical Wicked, but Mitch slaps back after that, arguably the highest Mitch slap I’ve taken on the chin, at least 50-100 times by now this last month). PTXD is no joke, but it is my favorite ailment XD

[@rlhcat7662]

Great reaction! I've heard the 5 years thing, too, but only that it took them 5 years to feel like they were ready to do it as a group. They spent a lot of those first few years learning how to make good videos, and this one took all their skills in planning, arranging and singing to do this classic rock piece justice. BTW, a lot of those early videos were done with the 5 of them sitting on a couch, and the remote-control couch in this one is a tribute to that history.

[@megjones7860]

I am in the queue to watch this reaction. Oh boy.......this will be fun,

[@SaintedKarma]

Loved this reaction and analysis I think you’ll both like the 90’s song medley it’s amazing There’s so many songs that I’d love them to do a full version of from the medley There’s a fun smaller clip you could enjoy /add on to the end of a reaction The one of Avi blowing up their speaker with his deep bass voice If I remember right the song was hit the road jack

[@seniorsperspective5967]

What always surprises me is when we are listening to a live performance recorded on someone’s phone it still sounds so amazing. Obviously, the studio version is better but the talent it takes to do it live is astounding.

[@Passioakka]

Queen (The Who, Sweet and so on)...you´re just to young! It takes time to go through ALL the fantastic music we humans have been and are making. I´m close to 60 yrs now and STRUGGLING to keep up with todays music AND having time to listen to my "old" favourites.

[@Lupin788]

The comment about PTX taking 5 years to do the BoRhap cover refers to the fact they did a snippet of the song as part of their Evolution of Music medley in 2013 but didn't feel confident enough in their a cappella vocal skills to do the full song till 2017. Technically, that's only 4 years but maybe it was closer to 5 from the time they first thought about covering BoRhap.

Yes I need a reaction to can you feel the love tonight!! Amazing upgrade to the song!!!

[@katherineortega7112]

Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy is definitely a must listen too if you want to hear each of them show off their individual vocal skills! It’s literally insane

[@jennifermorris6848]

Another Grammy award.

[@marymichele340]

Thanks!! Loved that you did the video and the live version!!! You guys rock!

[@michelepinto3896]

In case you guys didn’t know, the starry sky is a nod to Brian May bc he is an astrophysicist, and the four shooting stars rep the 4 members of Queen. Enjoy!

[@richardbowman6305]

Please do Gold next. Thank You.

[@jenniferp5916]

There is a recording of Petatonix making this song. They did it at night, the couch tipped, great fun to see. They're always a fun, friendly, and super talented group!!!

[@jennyfield266]

There's actually a side-by-side video on YT of the original by Queen and this one and it's amazing how PTX perfected it.

[@mjbartholomew5317]

More Pentatonix please.

[@scarletm1848]

Love your reactions and next I think you should definitely do "Mary did you know" or "the prayer" both have such astounding vocals that you will love.

Bohemian Rhapsody was considered a rock opera when it came out. It was actually featured in Wayne's World (1992) and made repopular to a new generation. You should try Pentatonix Mary Did You Know. Absolutely breathtaking, or their version of The Sound of Silence.

[@lexpope]

Your reactions are fantastic. Like I said the last time, you need to do Imagine. You will experience their “wall of sound” that will blow your mind. Keep the tissues within arms reach.

[@wendycall4483]

“Sound of Silence “ is really really good and “Mary did you Know” also both are absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👀👀👀👀👀

[@bik7083]

Thanks, I loved this reaction! I agree with everything you said about their performance, it’s absolutely amazing! They will one day be recognized as the best acapella group ever. Please, do Gold next! 😊

[@psrsings]

what he said about about doing the guitar solo "listen to a lot of guitars and then make the sound" sounds so simple but is amazing

[@Badger77722]

To show you the amount of detail that Pentatonix can put into a song and video: at the end of the "head-banging" section, when the Trio falls onto the couch, that is an homage to the Queen album cover photograph for Sheer Heart Attack. The 4 shooting stars during the 2nd Grassi Guitar solo towards the end was a tribute to both the 4 members of Queen, and specifically to Brian May, who now has a doctorate in Astrophysics. I would suggest either the Popspring 2016 performance if you want to see them do a live performance of several original songs and an "Evolution of Michael Jackson" tribute/medley, or The Prayer for something fairly recent and if you're willing to be Mitch-slapped (again!).

[@arfym2581]

I remember thinking that Pentatonix were the best and freshest most unique thing to EVER come out of a reality competition TV show when I first saw them on TV so many years ago. They were so charming and intelligent and SO young compared to so many of the other groups they were up against.

If you want to see what Avi is doing now, check out I'm Only Getting Started from his Floating On A Dream album.

[@TheLastGarou]

Also 'Change on the Rise'

[@Mahiahtree]

The 7 Layers-Session of "All is Well" is soul melting as well.

[@amandapruner9860]

Litterally my favorite song of his!!

[@kerrietoole2405]

I'm Only Getting Started, I Can't Lie, and When I'm A Fool are my faves off Avi's new album. Also Chains, Change On the Rise, and Get Down from his older stuff. Quarter Past Four is a tear jerker. I'm a therapist and I assign Avi's songs to my clients as homework, they're so deep.

[@suziballinger4230]

Brian May, the guitarist from Queen, was so impressed with this version, he put a link to it on Queen’s social media saying “Enjoy”!

[@west6859]

AMAZING REACTION, AMAZING CHOICE TO REACT TO. My recommendation next would be: PTX- Amazing Grace (My chains are gone). Even if you're not a spiritual type of person, their rendition of the song will still take your breath away. Is the best version of Amazing Grace I've ever heard.

[@patriciacschmidt5982]

Agree….❤
