[@sealaryn]

This arrangement is in homage to KOs Nigerian(father) and Grenadian(mother) ancestry. The whole feeling of as the lyrics say "joyful and triumphant" 😉

[@SirHairless]

Thanks for this info - makes sense! Very nice to see

[@shirleyfisher8313]

And you cannot help moving with the beat..and smiling!

[@sealaryn]

@shirleyfisher8313 absolutely! ROTFL

[@user-xq2kf2sq5u]

Did you ever think you'd dance to O Come All Ye Faithful?!!

[@SirHairless]

We both know the answer to that one 😅

[@cindylawhon4307]

Once you hear this version of "O Come, All Ye Faithful" you can't unhear it, It's great!

[@shirleyfisher8313]

And as Kristi Mitch and Scott have been together since high school they've learned exactly how to and when to just Blend ... You see more with Scott and Mitch on their Super fruit channel! The match and blend are fantastic!!!

[@kayecastleman6353]

So glad this reinvention meets with your classical approval! But who could not be impressed with a traditional Christmas carol turned into an Afro-Carribbean dance party? Yet all the classical elements remain. This is Pentatonix at their very best. Congratulations on reaching a new YT milestone! Sir H is the new Hotness, and well deserved.

[@SirHairless]

It's always great to see classic music reinvented! I don't think it's right (or fair) when people won't even give such creations a chance - never judge a book by its cover eh! Cheers!! 🙌

[@tammykiernan1839]

I had the same thoughts the first time I watched this video. There is no way one can listen to this and not find themselves tapping their foot, bobbing their head or bouncing in their chair 😁 As soon as I saw the choir robes I said to my daughter "They're calling for the faithful, and here they come!" Thank you again for your fantastic breakdown! 🎄🎁🎼🎵🎶🎅

[@SirHairless]

☺💃🎄

[@philipem1000]

OK "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" - an a capella band wins a Grammy singing an instrumental ballet classic. The hits just keep on coming...

[@janlauderdale9017]

I've been a choir director for almost 40 years. O Come All Ye Faithful has always been my favorite carol for the opening of the Christmas services. But this definitely takes it to another level. I listen to this on repeat throughout December (and sometimes through the rest of the year!). Thanks for your insightful reactions!

[@vickiroman189]

THIS is the way this song is meant to be sung - with unbridled joy!

[@madenabyss6981]

When my daughter was in primary school her class did this PTX version in the Christmas assembly never thought i would ever hear PTX blasted through an Australian school it was a bop👍👍

[@terriepurkey708]

So glad you enjoyed this version. I've always found it a sort of ho-hum carol but that was forever changed after hearing this version. As you might guess, Kevin had a major hand in this arrangement as a nod to his Nigerian roots. I absolutely agree with you that it's the best way to start a day in an uplifted mood! Thanks for the thoughtful breakdown.

[@SirHairless]

Thanks Terrie! It goes to show that any song can be transformed in any way! It's just about people daring to do so. Thanks for watching 🎶

[@salo81]

My favorite song! I love the face of the man in the centre of the choir people the moment the turn around, just pure happiness 😊

[@terrycupp6687]

@@salo81 I agree with you wholeheartedly, every time I watch the video I eagerly anticipate the moment when the choir turns their bodies to face the camera because he so obviously loves what he is doing at that moment. Glad to see someone else gained some joy from this young man’s demeanor

[@Miobambino]

I absolutely LOVE this track! The way PTX can add their own twist whilst still paying homage to the original is incredible! It’s such an up to date, original concept, demonstrating diversity to perfection. Christmas is a celebration and I think this upgrade is celebration personified. I’ll never get bored of this one. Brilliant reaction as always 🫶🇬🇧

[@SirHairless]

🙌🙌

[@gregsteele806]

This is like the good, Southern Baptist version of the carol.

[@larryross9492]

So joyous and Kevin is absolutely relentless! One of my favorite songs of any genre.

[@shirleyfisher8313]

First line says it all...Joyful and triumphant!!!😀

[@ruth2141]

I always get positive energy from Pentatonix, especially if I can watch them singing. Pentatonix and live Queen videos helped get me through the worst of the pandemic.

[@JaniceDAgostino]

Yes, good mood song for sure! I agree about Mitch and Kirstie handoffs. Seamless. They can match or soar as individual voices, distinct from each other.

[@rorysnap7026]

I never get tired of this, even in July

[@tersommers]

Sir Hairless bopping! I love to see it! You have got to be pretty darn low in order to not find some sort of joy from this one! I really feel for those people. Your breakdowns of their songs is so educational! I appreciate you and your reactions! Thank you! Well deserved subscriber numbers, sir!

[@SirHairless]

haha even I do occasionally bop ;) Thanks, as always!

[@janetbest6638]

I love the look on your face as soon as the video starts. For me, I find this version to be far more uplifting and joyous than the original. It just seems much more fitting for the true meaning of Christmas.

[@SirHairless]

It's a look of "what is happening? Oh? OH! Oh yeahhhhh"

[@pjb3583]

It’s always risky to say this is my favorite PTX song, so maybe I’ll just say favorite Christmas song by them, at least until I hear something new and fabulous. This one has topped my list for several years now, so it’s got staying power. I love the African/Caribbean influence, but it’s the “Yeah, Yeahs” that delight me. So glad you liked it too! Peace …

[@SirHairless]

Yeah the "yeah yeah"s are very catchy and energetic! Peace

[@hernameispekka_Rebecca]

Such a wonderful energy! Also way more fitting with the original lyrics. JOYFUL indeed. They still perform this on tour and it's on their latest greatest hits album, for obvious reasons. If you liked this vibe you'll like quite a few songs on their Holidays around the world album when you finally get to the Matt era of the band

[@SirHairless]

I look forward to it!

[@Emilaria]

This is my favorite of their Christmas songs. It's so different from the original and crazy fun. You can't help but groove.

[@philipem1000]

And yet they totally capture the original version at the same time; yeah they changed it but they were so respectful in doing so! Also among my top three or four PTX Christmas songs.

[@joyvanderveer2282]

I absolutely love how they have taken one of my favorite Christmas songs, added an Afrikaans beat to it, and kicked it up a notch to create something I love even more if possible.

[@terrilabeth]

That is the surprise….you are dancing to this song? 😂 I think it is fantastic! T ✌🏻

[@SirHairless]

haha! I mean, how can you not dance to this 💃

[@pavlamariebernadettax6789]

Yes, absolutely! 😀 @@SirHairless

[@evanirvana500]

This has been my #1 favorite ptx song now for years. It might have finally met its match tho in "Pure Imagination " mash-up with "Christmas Time is Here. "

[@jasgem76]

Love this ! PTX have really changed christmas music for me. What a vibe

[@SirHairless]

So vibey!

[@lauriedaiken4426]

Sing in exultation indeed! I have to dance around the room anytime I hear this one, it is definitely one of my favorites. Thank you as always for the wonderful information and explanations!

[@SirHairless]

💃🙏

[@melissacoviello2886]

This was always my favorite, until The Prayer and now O holy night and Kiss from a rose! Although this one is still my favorite to dance to of their Christmas songs! Loved your reaction! It’s soooo joyful!!!

[@SirHairless]

Joyful reaction for a joyful song!

[@maggiex1212]

This was a joy to watch. PTX, imo, does Christmas the best. They have a unique spin on their songs. Avi and Kevin were known as the meat and potatoes of the group. It fit them perfectly. As for multi-tracks, that does not bother me in the least. It's still them! Looking forward to more. Thanks so much for joining us in this journey!

[@SirHairless]

Thanks for this comment! Completely agree on multi-tracking, just like to point it as there have been comments by those that are adamant that there are only ever 5 parts 🎶

[@juliewade1393]

You just have to watch them live and see. Sounds the same!!

[@SirHairless]

@@juliewade1393 I can't wait! That's the sign of a truly great arrangement 👌

[@N_F414]

@@SirHairless yeah there are some fans who take it way too far. They sometimes have slightly different arrangements for live to accommodate the only 4-5 voices. Or clap/body percussion tracks like I Saw Three Ships (in concert they get the audience involved in the body perc :) . Like there are some fans who are diehards that say there is NEVER any touch of auto-tune (dont get me wrong, they don't "need" it, and consistently prove it so in their live performances), but there's even an interview where Mitch says they aren't machines, every human makes mistakes, and the occasional pitch correction for a studio track is standard in the industry. Just like compression, reverb, multitracking, etc. We love PTX, but some folks need to calm down and touch some grass sometimes.

[@kayecastleman6353]

@@N_F414 Such an adult comment! I know the individual talents in PTX are extraordinary, and their live performances are phenomenal, but the studio recording is simply a different animal. If PTX wants to remain competitive, tweaking those official videos is just part of the business. It takes nothing away from their skill, creativity, and riveting stage presence. I think it all went off track years ago when one or more of the members said they didn't record songs they couldn't perform live, and the fans just took that literally. Thanks to the technical expertise of reactors like Sir H and DJ Switch, Pentaholics are slowly coming around... but it's a bit like trying to turn the Titanic! 😉

[@maryhampton8686]

I love this version. Joyful. Happy. Their creativity blows my mind.

[@danielcarter837]

You will love analyzing their version of 12 Days of Christmas. What they do with that is just jaw dropping in a completely different way from what they did with this.

[@TomeWorm]

I love that the "build up" Hairless mentions is actually Pentatonix "summoning" the faithful. "Oh come all ye faithful!" and here the faithful come in their red robes.

[@SirHairless]

Very well said!

[@patriciaalvareztostado8170]

The made a very traditional carol song, that is generally soo serious, the beat of the song invited you to celebrate, and sing and be happy, and like other said Kevin pay tribute to his father origins on Africa

[@philipem1000]

I think I have mentioned before but if I didn't Mitch and Kirstie are able to emulate each others' voices and often use that as a way to play with the sharing of parts or allow one to start something and the other to finish it. Actually I think its more Mitch emulating her but whatever they do it's grand! You may have noticed a little of Call and Response in this too, which is very African/African American church tradition and quite the departure from the homophony you pointed out that the traditional arrangement is all about. (Sorry if I repeat things you've said I tend to write my comments while the reaction is in process...) I had a director who used to say "silence is the canvas o which we paint our music" (but I think she was just telling us to shut up and pay attention...). This is one of my very favorite PTX Carols because of it's utterly refreshing take on a very very traditional song!

[@SirHairless]

Thanks for the comment! If your director's quote was a way of telling you to shut up, it's a rather philosophical way to do so 😅Yes, this is a completely new take on the carol and how great it is 🎶

[@cassie8906]

Great reaction - as always! It's rare that pentaholics will 'spoil' a reaction because how you react to those unexpected bits are what we are thirsty for! You can deduce that if you see a lot of requests for the same song, you may THINK you are prepared for the surprise but 10/10 times, you are not! That's the beautiful musicality of PTX! You already heard how they start a song traditional (be it xmas or otherwise) and then 'upgrade' but this one is completely their own and you can't help but be joyful!! 💚💚

[@SirHairless]

Very nicely put, thanks!!

[@priscillamcrmy]

i LOVE this arrangement, one of my all time favorites from them

[@Gwennedd]

Thanks for another interesting breakdown of this fun rendition to an old hymn. Being Anglican, this was a staple at every Christmas and it is a bit boring. THIS version is anything but! I loved the unique beats and then the smart choice of adding a gospel choir for the last portion of this arrangement. It kept it from sort of just repeating what they started with. It added extra joy. I don't think I can ever go back to the older versions now. This will always be running around in my head every time I hear the old hymn.

[@SirHairless]

The gradual build up towards the choir climax was a nice touch! And such good energy throughout 🎵

[@andreac-iheartcrossstitch]

I have watched all of your Pentatonix reactions and you are doing absolutely fantastic! Keep it up!! Suggestions... Amazing Grace, The Prayer, and Hallelujah. I guarantee you will be absolutely blown away. They released these songs on their Christmas albums, so even though they aren't technically Christmas songs, they are included in the Pentatonix Christmas playlist.

[@SirHairless]

Thank you! All of these are on my list - one of them SHOULD be coming out this year at some point, according to my current schedule (which isn't set in stone)

[@janetburrows137]

That was too me blinking magnificent. They have never disappointed for years. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@darsynia]

YES DESCANTS. I'm a high soprano so that is Christmas for me, that and Angels We Have Heard on HIgh. Excited for thisssss. I'm so glad that no one ruined the 'real' surprise from this one! Love your analysis as always. If you like vocal pairings, I strongly recommend Little Drummer Boy! And as always, I gotta push My Heart With You 💚. This is my favorite along with those two, so thanks again!!

[@lorriredmon8212]

I so agree on those two songs. My Heart With You in the round, onstage, with a single microphone is brilliant and stunning to the ears.

[@SirHairless]

Funny you mention that - later today my reaction to Home Free's version of 'Angels We Have Heard...' is coming out. As a musical person married to a composer, you should check out their version (if you don't already know it) because it is NUTS. And maybe stop by my reaction too ;) Little Drummer Boy will be one of my last ones before a Christmas break 🎶 And My Heart With You is on my list for some time in the future. Thanks for the ongoing support!

[@darsynia]

@@SirHairless I keep seeing it on the way to doing something else, I'll definitely check it out, thanks for the rec! You know come to think of it I may have such an attachment to the way the high soprano sounds on the glorias that I didn't want to listen to an all male group, which is sacrilege because I KNOW there are glorious male voices who can hit it. For shame, me! Thanks for the heads up, I eagerly await your reactions to those, both as a whole and specific points of the songs!

[@pavlamariebernadettax6789]

I absolutely love this version of Adéste fidéles. I discovered Pentatonix one year before and I was mailing link to this joyful Christmas song to all my family and friends. It makes me so happy! I love that you reacted and visibly enjoyed this song! 😍🤗💃

[@cathyboyce6457]

Yes;, PTX nailed this!!

[@ssabell31]

This one stays in my shuffle year around. I will never get tired of hearing this one. OCAYF is my favorite carol and I love how they made if so joyful.

[@johnrodrigues5974]

This was Kevin’s idea for this African spin on this Carol

[@gingersnap22]

I highly recommend you react to them in the studio. There's a short documentary called The Recording of Evergreen. I'm convinced that these 5 talented people share the same soul. They're incredibly close as friends and musicians.

[@philipem1000]

Yes this is one of the many things that makes PTX so extraordinary. They are very close; there's no drama, no conflict, no prima donnas in a group full of extraordinary talent.

[@SirHairless]

Yes, this is on my list in a section labelled 'different' 😅 I'm not sure how much music is involved in the documentary or not, but I imagine it's mostly speaking? Sounds very interesting as I love seeing behind-the-scenes footage

[@pjb3583]

@@SirHairless I’m glad you are considering Recording Evergreen. There are no interviews involved, so rest easy. It’s a fly-on-the-wall true documentary (although short) that shows them arranging, rehearsing, debating choices, reacting to choices, etc. I found the section on Kevin’s body percussion really interesting. Keep ‘em coming, babe, you’re doing great!

[@SirHairless]

@@pjb3583 Oh that sounds cool! I'm sure will give a lot of insight into their arrangement choices, too

[@musicalmags2010]

We used to sing both the English & Latin versions in my school and in the church choir and the descant was my favourite part , but it was always quite a solemn affair ..then I heard PTX's amazing version and thought that this is the way we SHOULD celebrate and be joyful !

I feel like I keep saying the same thing, but I love your breakdowns and reactions to their songs. I’ve listened to them hundreds of times and I always learn something new, or have something pointed out that I never noticed before. I really hope you have Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (my favourite) and The Prayer (a close second) on your reaction list. I’d love to see your breakdowns of those ❤

[@SirHairless]

You can keep on saying the same thing 😉 Haha no seriously though, I really appreciate it and am glad you're enjoying! Of the two songs you mentioned, one of them will be coming out this year 👍 And the other one is on my list for the future!

[@tins369]

This is one of my favorites. Not only from PTX, but from all. The happiness is addictive.

This version was exceptional. My first time hearing this changed my thoughts on traditional Christmas music. And, shortly after I heard this, I heard Home Free perform "Do you hear what I hear?" You should do that one. I promise you won't be sorry. Merry Christmas from Texas!

[@lorriredmon8212]

Agreed! HF's version is gorgeous and so unique!

[@shilohauraable]

This is my all time favorite version of this song! So very joyous - As it should be! 💖

[@chyrlwillis9422]

I cry every time too! With joy! I'm jealous that you get to see them soon. Have a GREAT time! How could you not?

[@SirHairless]

Have an absolutely wonderful time!

[@bill.godwin-austen]

Absolutely love this one! It's one of my favorite Christmas songs from them (right up there with "Mary Did You Know?"). It's a song that I've always loved, especially from all my years in school choirs, and their unique interpretation of it is my favorite version of the song. The African/Caribbean beat (as others have noted, a tribute to the heritage from Kevin's parents) make it even more joyful than it normally is.

[@missangie001]

I would love to see your reaction to Pentatonix's "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy." Only they could perform a Christmas song with no words but keep it visually fun and musically beautiful. Merry Christmas!🎄

[@SirHairless]

Thanks! Hoping to get this out before Christmas

[@michelegillespie1971]

When I was young, my mother and family sang and taught us Adeste Fideles. It wasn't until I was in choir that I learned the traditional version, Oh Come All Ye Faithful.

[@tbowling64]

I love their Christmas music. My favorites would be Hallelujah, Mary Did You Know and Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

[@rachel_lee_123]

I love the little smile when it first started! Great reaction!

[@vmcgriff]

I love this arrangement of Oh Come All Ye Faithful. My whole life’s experience with this song has been the traditional church version - beautiful but very formal. The first time I heard PTX sing this I was in love!! They just manage to make everything better! Love your analysis and reactions!! 🎄❤🎄

[@meredithingram9384]

Thank you for your sharing your expertise! And I admire how you enjoy non-traditional takes on music. One reason I enjoy Pentatonix is that their members enjoy seeing together so much, I know they work hard but they present their work as joy.

🙏

[@fredrickabrown6698]

so joyful!

[@hawkeyescoffee6399]

Having grown up with this carol when I was in church choir...that descant took me back 30 years lol. Our choir was small, and very few were allowed the 'privilege' of singing the descant. It was in my more natural range, though, and also more interesting vocally, so I would often end up singing it by accident lol. Idk if i can ever go back to the classic version after this one. Kevin's influence was all over this arrangement, and I love it.

[@marablemorgan8292]

This is the most joyous song they've ever done...!

[@loritoigo8020]

I sing in a community choir but I don’t read music. Your explanations/breakdowns of the songs have helped me quite a bit to understand how my part fits in/enhances the overall sound. Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying Pentatonix. I have been in awe of them since they first performed on The Sing Off. That show gave an important boost for acapella singing in America. Pentatonix and Home Free being the standout groups have given the genre visibility with their innovative and amazing performances.
