Pentatonix Run To You Reaction

G'day guys, today we are reacting to Pentatonix Run To You. Wow, I loved this song so much. I loved the feel and the atmosphere it sets. This is one of my favourites that PTX do.

Kevin and Avi wrote the first draft and brought it to the group to work out. Those two guys are amazing. Well, as is the whole group.

[@janetranslates]

"Enough Pentatonix. Have a word with yourself, mate." I laughed so hard I missed the start of the song and had to start the video over! Perfect! There's so much I could say about "Run to You" but everybody needs to know this one amazing fact about the video. Jamie Antonelle has already mentioned it, but I'm going to move my reply to Jamie up here, to be sure you don't miss it. Did you happen to notice how the confetti is sometimes falling and sometimes rising? It's true. The confetti falls down through the verses, but drifts back up during the choruses. To make that happen, PTX learned to lip-sync just that phrase--"I'll run to you"--backwards. And that's how they filmed that part. I don't know where I first heard the story, but somewhere in the depths of the pages of comments on the PTXOfficial vid there is a post from Bill Hale, a Grammy-winning music producer who has worked with PTX (and also with Nota, the a cappella group from Puerto Rico who won the first season of the Sing-Off). Mr. Hale confirmed the story and gave more details. Just to be sure, I found his website and got an email address and wrote to him, wondering if it was really him or just somebody using his name. He wrote back and confirmed it all. So, this legend that is a favorite among Pentaholics is completely true!

[@JustMe-vk4fn]

:D I just love people with the inside story.

[@kristinhowk8231]

You heard two more originals the other night during your mini-concert: Love Again & On my Way Home. Their originals show their diversity and varied musical influences, as all 5 members contribute. Run to You was written by Avi & Kevin. Between the heart-wrenching lyrics and the beauty of the harmonies it has caused SO many tears.

[@xxcris20xx]

Kirstin and Kevin's harmonies in the end were so goood! They all killed it!

[@januzzell8631]

Breath-taking ... every time I hear it

[@rayraudebaugh5395]

Don't worry about too much PTX, there is no such thing. I love your PTX and Home Free reactions. Especially this one. A really great original mostly written by Avi and Kevin. Now you have to do their original "SIng" for something a bit more upbeat.

[@LadyAyumiMusic]

Love Again too is another one of their originals that is more upbeat (more in line with Daft Punk vibe wise

[@momma0f5]

i love Sing. i listen on repeat at work. lol

[@Celticdragon-vd7ds]

Their harmonies and simple set make this as beautiful to watch as it is to hear.

[@HighfalutinLowCarb]

One of my absolute favorites. Fun watching you experience it.

[@jjudithsawyer6628]

They do everything perfectly.

[@johnnaliggett3625]

The harmonies are so beautiful. I love the 3rd verse so very much in this song.....enough PTX lol..they have a whole self titled album of originals and a couple on most the others

[@bill.godwin-austen]

In addition to being a moving and beautiful song, it's one of the rare cases of not doing a "rhythm section" with Kevin's beatboxing and Avi's (or Matt's) bass, but rather beautiful 5-part harmonies... this was probably the first song where Kevin had a significant singing part (he has a really nice tenor voice, which they've used much more often, although usually in smaller bits... he was very prominent in "Imagine").

[@anessalyn1035]

There are just no words as to how beautiful this is ❤️

[@x0Vinny0x]

Listening to their harmonies feels like wrapping a warm blanket around my soul.

[@davidbangtson3109]

Surprise, surprise, another one I had not seen before. So very sweet and calming. Beautiful harmonics as usual. I also love it when Kevin gets a chance to participate in singing as well as any beatboxing that he does.

[@mjbsen]

My absolute favourite Pentatonix song and they wrote it!!! I wonder if they still sing it with Matt? So emotional.

[@debhouckscraftycottage9288]

One of my favorites. Most likely because Avi and Kevin wrote it. Sung beautifully by all of them. Thanks for sharing and sorry it took me a year?!?!? to see this on your channel! lol

[@hoolahoops2112]

They are realeasing a new original album this year! 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

[@bartlettje]

I didn't realise PTX wrote this. I love this, I'm always weeping with emotion by the middle. One of my absolute faves.

[@shirleyujest7786]

I agree. This was a stripped down, moody piece that showcased everyone's voices and shows off their incredible song writing and musical arranging talents. It's always nice to hear Kevin sing. I really like their covers but man, their originals are amazing. Loved your reaction, as always.

[@ankhgirl3]

Kevin has such an amazing ear for harmony. The minor notes he hits just sends me over the edge. Brilliant!!

[@sherryspivey5991]

My fav of their originals.

[@taniareads8751]

Never too much PTX! Love, Love Avi in this.

[@TheChihuahua83]

This is one of my favorite PTX songs. It makes me think of my daughter who doesn't hardly see me due to parental alienation by her father. It makes me cry every time i hear it :-(

[@Crystal_doggy]

Pentatonix is my favourite now and home free

[@Green-eyedGirl19]

Beautiful! That is my first time, also! No worries. There is no such thing as too much PTX!

[@MLLewis65]

Love your reactions, and PTX are well known for covers, and I know you want to see more original stuff but you will be thoroughly entertained by their cover of White Winter Hymnal...

[@misslorr2507]

Love love love pentatonix they are my people!! And love watching people react to them because they are out of this world talented and have such a huge following.... keep it up! I'll be watching :)

[@daniellezanghi2604]

PTX has a self titled album with mostly original songs, it’s great!

[@jayholland2632]

'Can't Sleep Love' is an original that will probably be more what you would expect.

[@ArcadianRuin]

Mitch absolutely /nailed/ that breathier "run" part. Having sung that song for choir before, it's a /very/ difficult switch to get right. You have to hit it just right or your voice breaks and it sounds super ugly with this type of song. And he did it multiple times in a row! True talent in this group

[@aks799]

Can you please react to ptx “what is this feeling” live? They did it for an nbc Halloween special last year and it’s one of my favorites from them.

[@calhoun1968]

Hey, even God couldn't get enough PTX if the whole universe was populated on with PTX's.... lol. I just love your open, honest reactions! "Ummmm", *strokes beard for three hours in amazement* Yeah, that song has a lot of meaning for me and I feature it in my book, along with several others form both them and their solo works. They will be working on another album of originals while they are on this next tour. You should check out more of their originals. Sing is led by Scott and is very awesomely upbeat and fun. Mitch wrote "Na Na Na" which is also very great and he sings lead in that one. Kitstie wrote both Water and Good to be Bad and sings lead in both. You'll need your Santa suit and hat for Good to be Bad. Listen to it and tell me if you think they should do a video for it with Kirstie in a 1948 style Christmas setting (to start) wearing a white flared dress with fist sized red polk-a-dots and an "up do" for her hair..... I mean, you know!?! It just gives me that kind of vibe. I love seeing you blow away!!! Peace, Love and Light my friend!!!

[@gailseatonhumbert9199]

Slight correction according to an interview Avi and Kevin did they wrote Na, na, na at Avi's inspiration from Walk Like an Egyptian. Kevin mentioned it in particular because Avi's songs were usually so emotional but this one was just fun.

[@danellwein8679]

when Kevin is reduced down to a singer … something special happens …

[@LPacker79]

There is a beautiful video of them singing this song live in a church in Berlin. You can really hear Kevin as well.

[@TheLMSN]

You have to listen NATURAL DISASTER! I’d say it’s their most underrated song, and it’s an original!

[@domagojbatinic1526]

"Love Again"

[@dou1der]

I loved PTX until Avi left. Then it seemed that something went out of the group. Maybe it's because I followed them through The Sing-Off and as their career took off. Avi was such an intricate part of the group with his versatility that when he left it seems they changed and lost some of the heart of the group. HomeFree has emerged in my mind as the premiere A Capella group at this time, BUT, you have to give it to PTX for reviving A Capella music from the humdrum, barbershop music it had devolved into. PTX breathed life into A Capella and gave us a glimpse into just how good music can be using just the voices of 5 very talented people. This is one of my favorite songs. Sorry to see Avi go.

[@PtxXtp]

Please more originals. Love again, Can’t Sleep Love and Sing are all good and much more upbeat. Not that run to you isn’t beautiful. Another original that is like this and will make you sit back and listen in amazement to their harmonies is Light in the Hallway. There’s no video but plenty of live footage from their world tour in 2016. Also i recommend reacting to Pentatonix random jamming/singing on the fly. In one part they jokingly sing Run to you in a very different way while Avi stares in disbelief of what’s happening to the beautiful song he wrote. Oh and remember, there’s never too much PTX.

[@nickglanvill643]

Rise by Superfruit should be next! it's really good

[@martifreedman4067]

I really like the new guy, but the group had a richer tone, denser, when Avi was part of it. BTW, no such thing as too much Pentatonix.

[@kareokeleidescope]

Don't forget to check out "Love Again". Another original.

[@dishmurphy6539]

Have you reacted to Sing yet?

[@SoulConversationsWithImaraPei]

2nd time watching your reaction :) Still terrific! PTX stripped back original...#nuffsaid

[@yvettemaldonado3725]

Great reaction 😍😍 please react to Rozzi lose us Scott is a beast in this video you will love it Thank you very much

[@marymarchmcclelland5203]

No idea where you are in relation to the fires but hope you are ok.

[@Pheonova]

Dafuq is the song in the intro that shit is fire

[@lynnleaverton8733]

*09

[@maybeeamyy]

You can never have enough Pentatonix 😜 And no matter how much I listen to this song, I still get goosebumps 😵🖤

[@jenniferyoung8551]

agree with other commentors that Cracked, Can't Sleep Love, and Love Again are some of their best originals. However, my most favorite original song/video is Sing. 2nd fav video is Can't Sleep Love. What I love about Sing, is that they had fans send in clips of themselves singing the song and they incorporated some of those clips into their video. At the end, they got a lot of their fans out on a pier and filmed them just having a good time...great concept and loved that they included their fans. and also agree with you that you can NEVER get enough Pentatonix...that statement you made proves you are a true Pentaholic!!! Love it :)

[@allybandy3047]

That one still gives me full body goosies.

[@WisToc]

This is balm for the soul

[@jessicathomas9935]

I think they're original album is my favorite. Some of my personal favorites from that album are Mis Behavin, Cracked and Na Na Na, but all of them are wonderful

[@markbell4017]

Completely agree. Cracked is my fav, though, and you can't leave out Water... So beautiful.

[@rondileem3111]

I love New Years Day!

[@whoami.24601]

Can’t forget Light in the Hallway!

[@jeantonelle]

You should also do a reaction to Light in the Hallway. I believe it was written by Scott, but they all agreed to have Avi take the lead. They used to close their concerts with it that last year Avi was with them. I think I recall reading somewhere that they had to learn to sing this backward for the video, the way it was filmed. I could be wrong, but I think I read that somewhere.

[@Sandy-be8wq]

I've heard the same thing, it had to do with the confetti going up not down if I recall that right.

[@jeantonelle]

@@Sandy-be8wq Yeah as I recall that was it. I forget where I read it or saw it. It might have been in one of their interviews. But I did recall that.

[@Sandy-be8wq]

@@jeantonelle I want to say another reactor. It was a passing comment on how they figured it out. My memory is not the greatest lol

[@janetranslates]

You're not wrong. It's true. The confetti falls down through the verses, but drifts back up during the choruses. To make that happen, PTX learned to lip-sync just that phrase--"I'll run to you"--backwards. And that's how they filmed that part. I don't know where I first heard the story, but somewhere in the depths of the pages of comments on the PTXOfficial vid there is a post from Bill Hale, a Grammy-winning music producer who has worked with PTX (and also with Nota, the Puerto Rican a cappella group who won the first season of the Sing-Off).

He wrote back and confirmed it all. So, this legend that is a favorite among Pentaholics is completely true!

[@Sandy-be8wq]

@@janetranslates Thank you for that : ) !!!

[@jamielane3371]

They have done many originals over the years, and released an original album in 2015. Can’t Sleep Love is one video from that. Cracked is another great one, but you’ll have to watch concert videos or tv appearances to see that one. They also have a documentary of the tour, On My Way Home, on Netflix.

[@rlhcat7662]

Loved your reaction! It's one of their videos where the mood just overtakes you. An interesting note - During the chorus when the snowflakes are going up, they learned to say the words backwards, and then reversed the video and sang over it. The chorus only has four words so it wasn't too hard, and it's an interesting effect. This song was written and arranged by Avi, who studied opera composition in college. I don't know if you've reacted to "PTX Aha! Singapore The Star Vista" (filmed by Shane Nicole) The choral part at the beginning of that one was also from Avi.

[@jenniestarr9015]

It's not an original but watch 'Radioactive' featuring Lindsey Sterling.

[@DetailBearOn]

I love it, but then he's going to have to start doing Lindsey reactions.

[@typ2679]

react to ptx at popspring! i think you’ll love it :)

[@aliyahmckoy9154]

You should check out more of their originals a few like this are Take me home and Light in the Hallway. Some more upbeat ones ate see through, misbehavin, new years day, rose gold.

[@klayers1555]

So beautiful....and it breaks my heart every time.

[@sabrinagaldinozaidanalhasn1788]

React to ptx in popspring. It has a lot of original songs like Cracked, Can't Sleep Love and Water. Kisses from Brazil 💓

[@klayers1555]

Wow! Queen and PTX the same day! Thanks so much...

[@menelickmontalvo7250]

You should react to The first Noel by ptx

[@blackangel08]

Please react to Radioactive cover by PTX with Lindsey Sterling. ❤️

[@monksuu]

Up next: SING! (Also an original as you can see from other comments.) This is one of my favorites too!

[@My2ndnephew]

Subdued, but powerful.

[@Leylahsong]

Kevin and Avi wrote this... my heart.... wow!

[@jcs1025]

This is PTX at their best. Beautiful harmonies.

[@xxcris20xx]

Can you react to Come Along? Please!

[@trinkab]

YES!!! They have other originals Avi and Kevin wrote Show You How to Love as well as Love Again, Kevin wrote Natural Disaster (on an airplane), then there is THEIR ENTIRELY ORIGINAL ALBUM called "Pentatonix" and Cant Sleep Love (HUGE HIT!!! got radio play and not because of Christmas) and of course That's Christmas To Me, Good To Be Bad...and sooo many more! SuperFruit (Scott and Mitch's KZbin channel -Check out Defying Gravity, their Frozen medley featuring Kirstie, and their "Hip - Hop Goes Broadway" series!) has a Double Album of originals called "Future Friends". They just OOZE talent!!

[@elizabethsantersero9597]

Love how they continue to surprise me - this one was particularly beautiful :-)

[@briannarichardson9511]

You should know by now, no one is ever ready. So just sit back and let it happen.

[@danielbutcher5836]

With KO singing, the harmonies can be more complex, which results in that dark, haunting feeling. This one cuts me deep every time I hear it.

[@lauraa4294]

Can never get enough PTX, hence the term, Pentaholic, lol. Glad you liked this one, it's not for everyone, but personally I love it. It's beautiful. Looking for something a little more upbeat? Their original, "Sing" official video is great! Loving your reactions.

[@kathys6402]

I have to agree, Pat, this is one of my favorites by PTX as well. Actually, I think it IS my favorite. Hauntingly beautiful it is. Thanks!

[@sherrythomas6850]

My favorite song by them

[@lauracottom7425]

Several people have mentioned doing Can’t Sleep Love if you listen to it please do the live version so you can hear Mitch do part that “Tink “ does. ❤️❤️

[@supposedly1-2]

the popspring 2016 i think was the year was the best live version bcz the recording was awesome! also the song kirstie sings water i've never heard that anywhere else other than the popspring concert .

[@carlahristov4148]

Luv ptx

[@amasoner2317]

You should watch their documentary on Netflix "On My Way Home"..its amazing. I think you'd really enjoy it

[@ericag4597]

There is no such thing as too much PTX. Crazy talk. Lol. Great reaction as always. I love how emotional and passionate you get sometimes when you really like a song. *cough* Hallelujah. Lol. Anyway. If and when you react to SuperFruit could I suggest you start with their early stuff? Their Evolutions and Medleys? They also did a couple videos with Kirstie (Frozen Medley and La La Land Medley). And Defying Gravity! Just a suggestion before you react to their albums 🤷🏽‍♀️ Thanks!

[@mattwilsonms]

LOVE PTX, cant get enough! I love your reviews and itz nice to see you react to them everytime:)

[@davidwatchesyoutube]

Check out Valentine by PTX. It's a cover but is a generally overlooked song in their library.

[@itrugater]

I remember my first time watching this. The rush of emotions. My body literally reacting to how beautifully dark it is. I just kinda stared off and contemplated crying lol

[@jeancaldwell5391]

I love your reactions! I had to watch it as soon as I saw it was available. Thank you for this.

[@Lozza2993]

This is my favourite ptx song and I definitely want it played at my funeral because it's just so beautiful

[@jhowe67]

"Standing By" and "Light in the Hallway" are among my favorite originals they have made. And Avi sings lead in them.

[@Anastasia-fj2zi]

I'm noticing a pattern of everybody who just wants to watch one or two Pentatonix videos ends up binging them, me included. Not even just on youtube, all my friends do it too. I mean obviously they are insanely talented and work better together than any other group I have ever seen. But I think it's the warm, genuine, and loving vibe you get when watching them that makes them so likable. Once you take a step into the hole that is PTX there is no climbing out. Trust me, I'm living proof.

[@kimberlypryor9440]

Not sure if you’ve ever seen the video for their other original called Can’t Sleep Love but it’s FANTASTIC!!!

[@pequeninok1918]

You reacted like other people hahaha! You heard the first melody and don't get to say anything more! This song are just amazing!

[@jessiestout703]

Absolutely loved it. Definitely one of my favorites. I had to have some tissues to dry my eyes when I listened to this. Great reaction, thank you.

[@mariamoumtzi1727]

I love how emotional you get in your reactions! Light in the hallway and Standing by are both originals and amazing songs. You could react to them as well.

[@carlahristov4148]

Luv luv

[@lorriepriddle8604]

That was soul rattling! Love it!!!

[@jenniesue8129]

Seriously glad you are loving PTX so much! We pentaholics will never complain about “too much PTX” in a row because that isn’t a thing! 😉 As for their originals-you should check out “cant sleep love” and “love again” which are both a pleasure to the eyes and ears!!! Also some of the videos from the “live concert” video you created are magical as well. Can’t ever enjoy the evolution of Michael Jackson enough, or the Aha video is fun (but Mitch doesn’t go near as high in the video as his live in Singapore version) and really anything else the do. One of my personal favorites is Radioactive (by imagine dragons) Ft Lindsey Stirling-AMAZING! Hope some of these find their way into your reactions-I’d love to see how you feel about them too!

[@marygraham1959]

Lighting the Hallway - original lullaby. Scott wrote it for his nephew.

[@corvus1374]

Can't Sleep Love is my favorite of their originals, but they're all so good.

[@KathiePeterson1955]

Have you listened to New Years Day. This is an original. Its very catchy.

[@InstrucTube]

Yeah, this one and Imagine will always get me in the teary mood. The only word for both of them I can come up with is poignant. It's just amazing what they can do when they really put their mind to it.

[@nathansytsma9728]

Have you done “Love Again “? Good grief. Holy moly. You gotta do “love again” or there’s gonna be trouble, boy! Lol

[@kaygirly19]

Your reaction was pure and sincere. I am with you. This is wonderful. New subscriber definitely.

[@freadadillon4071]

Brilliant harmonies. And yes, I cried.

[@TheCha0sL0rdNurgle]

This was my first introduction to PTX. And it was one of the last songs I did with my University Choir... This has such a special place in my heart. It brings goosebumps everytime.

[@bettyhalamickova589]

On my acc during MarchMadness voting in fandom on IG and Twitter were in final round originals NATURAL DISASTER and CRACKED. PTX did a medley of those two during 2018 summer tour. Please react to this! There are some really good videos by fans here! Fan fact: a lot of people in the fandom has a tattoos with reference to this song. Authors of this original are all of them: Avi Kaplan / Benjamin Allan Bram / Kevin Olusola / Kirsten Maldonado / Mitchell Grassi / Scott Hoying

[@johnrodrigues5974]

Please react to Pentatonix “ White Winter Hymnal”
