PENTATONIX - Bohemian Rhapsody | REACTION

[@jtm4850]

Would have loved to have seen Freddie Murcury's reaction to this.

[@charlesheld3725]

Another acapella group to check out Voice Play Carry on my Wayward Son. Avi isn't the only bass to tingle you all the way to your toes.

[@2miles2go1]

Pentatonix loves when reactors sing along

[@jeffkubik5452]

Yes it said that Brian May of Queen has shared this song with quite a few people he knows if that's not a seal of approval right there I don't know what is. Also other songs by PTX that you may like are "can you feel the Love Tonight", "The sound of silence", "hallelujah", "amazing Grace" and "imagine". These are all cover songs of course, but they are still well worth listening too much like" Bohemian Rhapsody" is. And before I forget loved your reaction love the fact that you had a smile on your face throughout the whole time you were listening to this.

[@peternepp6523]

Love them since I heard them the first time years ago

[@larrywt656]

The smile on your face on the opening notes said it all!! Pretty mind-blowing, huh? I was 11 years old when the Queen original was released, and I remember it completely blowing me away. When I heard this Pentatonix version for the first time, I got that same feeling again!

[@fluterify]

Kevin (the man with black skin) is the beat boxer, a tenor and cellist of the group. Avi (the man with a beard) is the original bass of the group (he left the group in 2017 and helped find his replacement Matt). Mitch is a tenor of the group (he has the solo for much of this cover). Scott (the tall blonde man) is the baritone of the group. Kirstin (the only woman of the group) is a mezzo soprano.

[@dawgeral333]

Their cover of John Lennon's "Imagine". It's breathtaking.

[@keithmason9342]

You absolutely have to hear Daft Punk. It will literally blow your mind.

[@joemelnick]

Taui, Thank you another wonderful reaction. Pentatonix are awesome.

[@cassie8906]

Just discovered your channel and not sure why you weren't popping up in my recommended sooner as I LOVE to watch a the birth of a Pentaholic!. Looking forward to you falling down the rabbit hole that is PTX!!! SIDE NOTE: I don't typically comment on the "look" of a reactor but I have to say I LOOOOOOOVE your eye makeup - Stunning! 💚

[@TauriReacts]

Thank you so much for your kind words! 💜🥰

[@barrydanish6008]

Oh,my. Daft Punk, dance of the sugar plum fairy, new rules/are you that somebody?, and for something totally different, listen to their original song “Thank You”. Scott wrote it with his partner for the holiday season...you’ll see him on the piano and Kevin on the cello. How do you write a Christmas song for the horrible year of 2020? They accomplished it beautifully.

[@wbrock8090]

Great reaction. You mentioned that if Freddie was still around, he would be proud, well Brian May enjoyed this so much he shared it on his social media. You're about to fall down the Pentatonix rabbit hole, this group is nothing short of phenomenal. They have an extensive catalog of both covers AND originals dating back to 2011. One note, the videos you've reacted to so far are with the group's original bass, Avi Kaplan, he amicably left the group in 2017 for personal reasons, and helped pick his replacement, Matt Sallee, who you will see in any videos from 2017 on. That has been the only change. The lead vocal in this song, Mitch Grassi, and the young lady, Kirstin Maldonado, both change their looks often and they may seem like different people, they're the same two. I won't recommend any of their music because frankly my list would include everything they've done. Just browse their videos, pick ANY one, and enjoy!

[@scottperil905]

The magaphone is a prop. Mitch does this live without it!!

[@fritsyt2090]

This was just awesome!!! This is such a bunch of talent!!! Thank you for introducing me to them! I want and need more!!! 🖤🤘🏻

[@adellhollingsworth2956]

Please react to "Love Again". You will definitely be dancing to it. Great reaction as always

[@judydempsey3957]

They got Brain May’s blessing before they released this. I’m sure Freddie is smiling down from Heaven saying “ Alright “..Judy D

[@jimbojimbog1598]

Tauri thank you for doing this review Freddie would love to hear this wouldn't he darlings?? RIP Freddie sadly missed.

[@elcarto22]

Brian May posted this video on his Facebook page a number of times, so PTX definitely got the Queen vote of approval. BTW, the bit with the starry sky was a tip of the hat to Brian, who is an Astrophysicist in his 'day job.' PTX held off on doing this for several years, until they felt they could 'do it right.'

[@ryanje8147]

Awesome. More pentatonix please. 😀👍

[@rebeccamunoz2948]

Sound of silence will also blow your mind, loved your reaction 💕💕

[@davidphillips4476]

loved your reaction, subbed because of it! keep up the great work. love the homages to the original sprinkled throughout..This is 5 voices doing Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody!!!! just 5 voices!!! wow

[@TauriReacts]

Thanks for the sub!

[@cRobin1375]

Just an FYI Brian May shared the video on social media after he first heard it.

[@Jazziegrylbk]

I enjoyed watching u fall down the rabbit hole. You should react to their sounding of silence cover. HAPPY FRIDAY

[@shanialover]

Hello Tauri. Top row on couch is Kirsten in CUTE HEELS & Fishnets& Mitch & Scott. Bottom is Kevin the beatboxer & Avi the Bass. However, in 2017 Avi had to leave to take care of family AFTER they found Matt to replace him. By the way, the switch from one ear to the other is exactly what Queen did with it too.

[@joxer8]

Great reaction! High recommend Daft Punk Medley. Their first Gammy award winning video.

[@oceansalliteration0419]

Welcome to the ranks of the Pentaholics! We hope you enjoy your stay (we know you will). My recommendation for PTX songs would be Come Along, Sound of Silence, Daft Punk, and Imagine. On a note unrelated to Pentatonix, theres an older rock group called Flyleaf. Id love to see your reaction to them If hou havent seen them before (I haven’t listened to them in a few years so Im unsure how popular they are). Some of my favorite songs from them are Cassie, All Around Me, I’m So Sick, and Fully Alive.

[@michaelengel3265]

the one thing to remember about PTX is that when they do a mashup...cover or an original they will either match the song or surpass it....nothing less

[@deansouthwick1906]

In my opinion, they don’t do covers. They do upgrades.

[@BladeCPL]

Tauri, you referenced the "2 beatboxers at the front"... Kevin is the beatboxer. The guy with the beard, (Avi), is the bass. Note: Avi left amicably in 2017 and was replaced by Matt, who you are yet to see. Avi leaving/Matt joining is the only change in the group since it's inception.

[@jerolddavis]

Kevin is so ridiculous you either forget he's there, think he swallowed an 808, or think there's 2 people doing it. 😂

[@AnthroFiend]

I love that they're able to keep basically every element of the original song intact while only using their voices! On a completely different note, Adrienne Cowan from Seven Spires just released a cover of "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera, and it's EPIC! I'd love to see a reaction to that in the future if at all possible. Keep being awesome!

[@TauriReacts]

Ohh that sounds interesting!

[@timhutchinson8485]

A little rundown of the voices here: Soprano: Kirsten Maldonado High tenor/male soprano: Mitch Grassi Tenor/baritone: Scott Hoying Bass: Avi Kaplan Beatbox: Kevin Olusola. A few years ago, Avi left the group and was replaced by Matt Sallee.

[@lionmanx]

thank you I didn't feel like typing that for the millionth time.

[@fritsyt2090]

Thank you for the info!! 👍🏻

[@thaiseathaydesantos]

Kirsten is a mezzo-soprano

[@TauriReacts]

Thanks Tim!

[@lindakramer6075]

Enjoyed your reaction, you should sent a link to your parents. I love Come Alone by PTX it's colorful and happy, but also Renegade by Kevin Olusola (KO) who is the beatboxer for Pentatonix. The first part of his video is haunting and the second part is memorizing, really worth watching.

[@RobBellSpeaks]

Great reaction. Please do many more Pentatonix reactions. Some suggestions include, IMAGINE, SOUND OF SILENCE, SING, THANK YOU, BE MY EYES, CHEERLEADER, HAPPY NOW, EVOLUTION OF MICHAEL JACKSON, DAFT PUNK, and anything else done my PTX, they never disappoint. Thanks!!!

[@talyn5304]

Great, great reaction! Yes! Please do their cover of "Imagine" next! :)

[@pughead2]

I love your reaction! I recommend their cover of The Sound of Silence.

[@dishmurphy5754]

Brian May retweeted the video so that must have been such a thrill for Pentatonix. Couldn’t get higher praise I already suggested Mad World but also 2 others - Sound of Silence & Cone Along. 3 of my favorites. Oh - Sing too. That’s an original and much more rock that so many of their poppier songs

[@thanhasp4117]

Start all P E N T A T O N I X songs you will be amazeddddddddd by the talent that people have!!!!!!!

[@connorbosley4431]

I saw in one of your other videos that you said you like viking stuff, so i have a couple of odd recommendations for you. It's a couple of songs from a comedy show called horrible histories, the songs are called "garfunkel and viking" and "literally the viking song". Horrible histories was sketch show that taught kids about history (although pretty much anyone can enjoy it) it also had songs that tended to be parodies, they were very good

[@ronstewart2703]

The recommendations others have noted are absolutely ones you will want to check out. Someone mentioned "Sound of Silence" and you'll want to do that for it's wonderful sound and also to hear Matt Sallee who replaced Avi Kaplan as the band's bass a couple of years ago. And,, if you're looking for goosebumps, be sure to take in the PTX version of "Can You Feel the Love Tonight." And just for fun, "Making Christmas," the Danny Elfman composition for Tim Burton's "Nightmare Before Christmas."

[@sophianicole4656]

Please do more Pentatonix reaction to your channel. 🙏💗 Please react to their cover of THE SOUND OF SILENCE or IMAGINE 🙏

[@user-onlyGodknows]

You should check out their Daft punk medley (first grammes)

[@Fairplayer43]

"Alleluiah" (a must), "Imagine", "Daft Punk" (Daft Punk got them the Grammy), "Sound of Silence" Extras!!! ( They won the TV contest "Sing-Off" 3rd Season. Check the 6th 7th 10th and 11th performances. This contest got them happening...They bagged the win with the 10th Performance in my opinion..) More: ."The Evolution of Michael Jackson"(Awesome) from the Christmas Album; "Mary did you Know", "Amazing Grace" Scott, Mitch and Kirsty know each other since they were 8 and 10 years old. Base Avi Kaplan the guy with the beard is no longer with them but Matt last name? is now. Check Avi Kaplan playing solo album. (Awesome) i like "House of the Rising Sun", Change is Coming ?", "Aberdeen" and others. You hit a gold mine. They will increase your subscriptions. There is sooo much more... But I'll let you hear from other people. They came last week with a new Album. I am checking it out as we speak. I love them beyond WORDS!!!

[@johnpatricklarson8188]

I'd have loved to hear you sing along.

[@specialplaylists3230]

Great reaction Definitively entering the rabbit hole... great! They're awesome, you'll see! I would suggest you to continue with the most recognizable ones (most generally known), like "Imagine", "Can you feel the love tonight" or "Sound of Silence". The good thing is that there are plenty more to react to afterwards! See you in the next one

[@Jsman525]

Completely disagree with the not superb comment. Please continue to listen to PTX! They are super talented. Brian May shared this version and thought it was amazing. Imagine makes me cry. Also checkout sound of silence, daft punk medley and love again!

[@marysilveus7576]

Megaphone was prop. He doesn't use It live.

[@rosana1961]

Hey just beautiful!🥰

[@stevek5332]

To see what they are able to do live, with an extremely complicated one-take, try their cover of Kiira's "Gold". kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4iThWN8bLukq6M If you aren't familiar with Kiira's OG, you might listen to that first just to be amazed what they can do with their voices, no electronics.

[@taniareads8751]

Yes, I second this - and would recommend the 'watch the original first' comment. Just to see how amazing their cover is.

[@jackkomorowski2722]

+ One for Gold!

[@colleenstapleton2120]

Try Blinding Lights, Say Something, Havana, Radioactive by Pentatonix ( covers ) pretty much anything

[@josephmastando358]

Do PENTATONIX SINGING MARY DID YOU KNOW AND THE SOUND OF SILENCE

[@yadiragonzalez9002]

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@get2choppa]

Should react to avi doing lion king singing 2 notes at once

[@brucemclaughlin7845]

You're gorgeous ❣️

[@funnyrailroadcrossing2767]

Please check out ballad songs from Lovebites, called: Edge Of The World or Epilogue. Thanks

[@johnrodrigues5974]

Please watch “beginners guide to Pentatonix” You will learn all about the group.

[@charlesfuller4363]

Tauri! Epica put out another acoustic version song from Omega!!

[@TauriReacts]

Coming next Wed!

[@paulralston4286]

Note that the megaphone is only a prop. That;s just Mitch.

[@TauriReacts]

Well... yes lol.

[@jwschnell1956]

Thanks for doing another Pentatonix reaction. I think it's time for you to do another Hua Chenyu reaction soon. I highly recommend "Evening Bell at Nanping Hill", which is a duet. It will blow you away. Here's a link with english subs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/onOqp4NnYq53l6M

[@andresjuan8783]

Opera Rock. From Spain please. React to Camilo Sesto: Getsemani ( live 1977 ).

[@dishmurphy5754]

I’d recommend Mad World but I’m sure you’re getting hit with lots of suggestions

[@stephenkinney1194]

Just like to say that your parents probably didn't consider Queen to be "classic" rock when they were listening to them back in the day lol.

[@TauriReacts]

Well no.. but it is now...

[@tiffanyalberti2029]

Please react to the bands Darzamat Tales Of Evening

[@aaronbarlow4376]

"That bass rattled my chest" You mean it rattled your ovaries really eh...

[@TauriReacts]

No...

[@aaronbarlow4376]

@@TauriReacts Lol

[@ARetiredPirate]

Hey! Took me a minute or so to get used to this.. Not bad, not Superb either but certainly not disappointing indeed.

[@ChrisPage68]

Better than I thought it would be. If you haven't already seen it, I recommend the cover by Halocene, First To Eleven, Violet Orlandi and Lauren Babic. It's not A Capella, but it's a really good version.

[@donny1960]

Well, Brian May said it was superb. I will take his side on this one.

[@Anna-fd9qb]

I think people put Queen on such a high pedestal that people feel the need for the covers, especially bohemian rhapsody, to sound exactly the same. I am a classic rock and metal fan, but once you look behind the fact that it isn't exactly the same, you can see how they kept it close but put their own spin on it. Also the fact that this whole thing is acapella, I think they did an amazing job.

[@ARetiredPirate]

@@Anna-fd9qb And that is why it is great to discover other music this way. I'm more into other kinds of music but this is nice too. Definitely nicer than the original.

[@jediboo7786]

Pause.

[@gerrygrouwe70]

O3gene is better 😁😁😁💋💋💋

[@Anna-fd9qb]

Personally I think Pentatonix is more impressive, because it is acapella and they only used their voices throughout it with no instrument, but O3gene was pretty good, and impressive and thank you for introducing them (sorta) to me
