[@shockwavereact]

Alright I will

[@juliemeier2277]

You know what amazes me about Mitch? It all seems so effortless for him to sing so dang beautiful. Just...calm. If you haven't caught Amazing Grace, that should be your next one. :)

[@shockwavereact]

Oh sure, I’ll definitely check that out

[@simsweechuah9753]

Mitch always sounds so angelic and vulnerable. Thanks for the reaction

[@shockwavereact]

He is incredible

The world needs more Baritone Scott.....Italian or not!

#Pentatonix published this on their 2021 Christmas album, "Evergreen." Most pentaholics think this should have won a Grammy. Unfortunately, it's the publisher's responsibility to submit songs to the Academy, and RCA decided to submit the entire album rather than the one Grammy-worthy song on it. "Evergreen" (the album) was nominated, but it never had much of a chance of winning. And if I sound angry about that it's only because I am. Isn't that a gorgeous suit Scott is wearing? Do you notice that he ISN'T wearing a scarf, or gloves? That's because they aren't actually in a snowy forest; this was filmed indoors, on one of the most beautiful sets I've ever seen. Either Mitch or Kirstin could have sung the lead; they have much the same range and on occasion they sound very much alike. But Kirstin's real forte is belting out those high notes and Mitch's is ethereal (some would say angelic) vocals, which made Mitch the better choice to lead in "The Prayer." Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli each recorded solo versions of "The Prayer" for the 1998 film, _"Quest for Camelot."_ Dion's was in English and Bocelli's was in Italian. Later, they released a duet version on their albums "These Are Special Times" (1998 - Dion) and "Sogno" (1999 - Bocelli). Source: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prayer_(Celine_Dion_and_Andrea_Bocelli_song) Obviously, #Pentatonix chose to cover the duet version, though they abbreviated Bocelli's part. And wouldn't you know that Scott would be the best choice for Andrea Bocelli's part, when Scott is the member of Pentatonix most likely to forget the lyrics (according to everyone in Pentatonix, including Scott)? No, he doesn't speak Italian; he had to learn this by rote, and he worked very hard to get the pronunciation right. According to people who do speak Italian he succeeded. Lyrics and English translation of the second verse: Scott: La luce che tu dai {the light that you give} Mitch: I pray we'll find your light Scott: Nel cuore resterà {In my heart it will remain} Mitch: And hold it in our hearts Scott: A ricordarci che {To remind us that} Mitch: When stars go out each night Scott: L'eterna stella sei {You are the eternal star} Mitch: Ooh oh Scott: Nella mia preghiera {In my prayer} Mitch: Let this be our prayer Scott: Quanta fede c'è {There is so much faith} Mitch: When shadows fill our day Scott: Lead us to a place Mitch: Guide us with your grace Both together: Give us faith so we'll be safe Sources: genius.com/Pentatonix-the-prayer-lyrics Translation from: dailyitalianwords.com/the-prayer-andrea-bocelli-celine-dion-lyrics-english-translation/

When you want a song taken to 11 then you look for the Pentatonix version.

[@darrenwallace4431]

If you like Pentatonix you absolutely must react to there best MARY DID YOU NO. Performed in a cave. This is insane

You are a beautiful woman. Your smile could charge a Tesla.

[@shockwavereact]

Omg… I just smiled, 😊thank you for the kind words 🙏

[@blackenreed1425]

You know what fails to amaze me about Pentatonix, Home Free, VoicePlay, etc.: regardless of the honesty/sincerity of the reactor, it has no effect on the quality of the recording/performance.
