When all the members of pentatonix die this guy can take all their places

[@thirsawynia1369]

Singing one line, record that, and than put it all together is totally something different what pentatonix do. Singing you line while 4 other people sing other thins, is soo difficult. But yeah, what he does is really amazing!

[@Maineeak]

But he’s like the same age as them so he’ll hopefully live till he’s like 200

[@WouldntWeather]

This either implies that Sam is immortal or that Pentatonix is about to meet an early grave.

And you are clearly enjoying yourself; the fun you are having in this video makes me want to watch it on repeat!

[@benilak]

Just noticed the background colors correspond with the characters singing :) Okay but for real, is there really an audio track for every picture shown? Cuz at the end there's gotta be over a hundred at one time

Yay! You spotted the character colours!

Everybody wants to be a cat, because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at. Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat, 'cause everything else is obsolete. Now a square with a horn, can make you wish you weren't born, ever'time he plays; and with a square in the act, he can set music back to the caveman days. I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing, but a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing. Who wants to dig a long-haired gig or stuff like that? When everybody wants to be a cat. A square with that horn, makes you wish you weren't born, ever'time he plays; and with a square in the act, he's gonna set this music back to the Cave man days. Everybody wants to be a cat, because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at; while playin' jazz you always has a Welcome mat, 'cause everybody digs a swingin' cat. Everybody digs a swingin' cat.

I have always loved the Movie Aristocats ever since I was like a baby and that’s practically the whole reason my favorite animals are cats! “Everybody wants to be a Cat” is my favorite song from the Movie Aristocats and today in my Choir class I heard this Acapella version for the first time and I’m in love with it and can’t stop rewatching! 🥰😇👏🏼😀🤩👍🏼

[@annaager6079]

I'm sorry, any dirty word in a Disney song intrigues me way too much more than it should. Which word are you talking about in the original? There's nothing bad in the song that I can see. I gave your comment a thumbs up anyway because I thought that was pretty cool

[@happyblob7415]

Oh, in the original she says "If you want to turn me on.." In here, Sam says "If you want to lead me on.." It changes it up by a lot.

[@owenwells7692]

That comes up a lot when people talk about this song, you have to remember back when the film was made it had a different common meaning than it does now. Having said that though I think he chose a good substitute that maintained the flow of the song and still sounded great :)
