SUPERFRUIT is insane | RISE (Reaction!)

[@susanpeterson9947]

Superfruit was just Scott and Mitch from PTX. The other three singers are friends they tapped to sing this song with them, in response to the mass murders at the Orlando gay nightclub. When you listen to this again (and we know you will) knowing what they’re singing about will make a huge difference in your reaction.

[@bethphillips9693]

Coming up on Pride Month, and June 16th is another anniversary of the Pulse massacre. I live an hour north of Orlando, and that was such a horrible, shocking incident. I pray the day will come when members of the LGBTQ and trans community can live their lives in peace. Thanks for playing this one. It always gives me chills.

[@crichardson3903]

Yes. I am the mother of a queer kid. Pulse was very traumatic for them (we live close to Orlando and they went to Pulse sometimes). They haven't felt safe for a long time. It is heartbreaking.

[@bethphillips9693]

@@crichardson3903 I will never forget the shock and horror. It's still crazy to me that 7 years later, nothing has changed with guns. Absurd.

[@judithgehrig2632]

All five vocalists are part of the L GBTQ community and yes, this was their response to the shooting at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando.

[@melissacoviello2886]

This song was in response to the pulse nightclub shooting. Also Superfruit isn’t a cappella. They have so many amazing videos like this, but also they have an album with official videos that are top notch! Superfruit is my favorite!!!

[@AmandaSmith-zr8mn]

Scott and Mario have an amazing cover of LP’s lost on you. It’s like 4 straight minutes of goosebumps. He worked for PTX on tour that’s how they became friends

[@Gwennedd]

Superfruit ( Scott and Mitch's side project) ran weekly for several years until the two of them managed to move to their own places ( they roomed together for years while starting up PTX). It's full of chats, challenges, fun stuff with friends and guests and hilarity...and some really outstanding music. It's not acapella and NSFW! It's definitely worth an explore. Frozen Medley, Guy E.X.E, Defying Gravity ( although I do recommend checking out the original first), Hip Hop Goes Broadway, Future Friends, Happy Little Pill, Lost On You, so much more...

[@LisaD-1969]

Ditto!!

[@bridgethaines7127]

And their Stranger Things in Three Minutes (S1 stuff only) is HILARIOUS (and Mario is in that too)

[@Gwennedd]

@@bridgethaines7127, IKR!!

[@bfly5990]

Stranger things is one of my favs

[@janaeibich5643]

For sure do Scott and Mario’s duet of the Hans Zimmer and LP mix of Lost on You. You will not regret it!!

[@catherinelopresti7121]

Pentatonix just released a cover of Creep that everyone needs to hear at least once! It is awesome!!!

[@jamiem4941]

Thanks for playing this one. Five very talented singers, the harmonies are insane, Mary’s voice is so Angelic! The message of this song is what really counts in these times.

[@catherinelopresti7121]

Love this version! So emotional!

[@tammymoseley1348]

If I am not mistaken, I believe Mario is (was) a member of the PTX tour staff. The story I heard is that they heard him singing during set up at a show and then later invited him onstage to sing with them. (All of which will require fact-checking as I don't have perfect recall/eidetic memory.)

[@Gwennedd]

AFAIK...that is all correct. I believe they also invited Mario's family to be in the audience for his on-stage debut. He became a good friend of the group and especially Scott. The two of them did a couple of songs together. Lost On You is my fave.

[@nancyankrom3803]

Superfruit is where a young Mitch and Scott from the group Pentatonix could do things they couldn’t do with the group. They believed the dynamics of fans was different between the two groups. There is some overflow but where PTX is multi generational, Superfruit was mainly people in their 20’s and 30’s following them. The music they created as a duo is fantastic. All of PTX music is as well. I did not like the original version of this song but absolutely Love this one.

[@JohnPaul-hm2ys]

I always enjoy this version. It was a tribute after the Pulse shootings. But it is empowering to all. Gay pride month begins tomorrow; however, my pride is daily. I have marched, protested, and lived in the community through good and bad for 40+ years. Stay proud no matter who you love. My parents were straight, and that's okay.

[@pjb3583]

New subscriber, here for any more Pentatonix, Superfruit, Kevin, Messer, Scott, Avi and any other configuration these talented folks come up with. This powerful cover of Rise conveys all the determination, defiance and pride the LGBTQ community needs right now. Since you seem new to Superfruit, which is Scott and Mitch, I can suggest Guy.Exe, Imaginary Parties and Vacation, all originals that they released on their Future Friends Album. When I get a minute, I’ll look back and see what Pentatonix you’ve already done. Peace from Ohio …

[@mikeb1too]

lol when Mitch started singing at the beginning your dog popped his head up , just like the rest of us shocked from that beautiful singing voice, at the point when he sings run deep

[@amycoleman3688]

The puppy in the background got Mitch-slapped! 😂😂

[@annajosullivan]

You should react to more SuperFruit videos. It’s normally just Mitch and Scott although sometimes they have guests. Sometimes it’s their music videos but mostly it’s just them in their apartment being hysterical.

[@geriatricptxer2362]

Superfruit (Scott and Mitch) do some really edgy stuff (compared to PTX), and they use instruments. Their double album (as Superfruit) is fantastic although a little weird. They also did weekly blogs with a comedy bent, and swear words. One of my favorites is a guest appearance the made on Magical Mythical Morning (can't remember the two guys names), but they did a Duo or Don'to challenge that was hillarous.

[@Musicality-66]

Such a powerful cover! Always love hearing this song for the time. Thanks Sebs! Note: the audio and video was not entirely in sync. 🙋‍♀️💕

[@finnsmom773]

I love their tribute to those hurt in the senseless shooting that day.

[@vidsorama2]

Thank you for the great reaction to this beautiful video. They are all so amazing.

[@DiG900]

Wow wow wow

[@heatherjeanjacques3938]

When I feel pulled down, this is my go to song on highest volume 💜

[@nickjakobs1339]

Try Mario Jose and Scott "Lost on You. "

[@Cynicalgeek743]

I love your dog; what a sweetie!

[@joycenorthwind6874]

Even your dog loves Mitch's voice. lol

[@lindaroselevin2191]

Another performer started young just came out with a song called Broken.Her name is Courtney Hadwin. It moved me like Angelina Jordan can. They have different styles.

[@CeceliaFutral]

I pray that everyone lives in peace you are all beautiful and have gorgeous voices i love you all

[@TomLloyd-18]

Check out BJC's duet with Matt Bloyd on their cover of 'Tell Him' originally performed by Celine and Barbra. It'll blow you away.

[@cblanerun]

“My high beams” hilarious 😅

[@allergic2sanity]

Mary Lambert also performs on "Same Love" by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.

[@diannaqa]

Yet another “breakout” is the LP cover of Lost on You with Hans Zimmer by Scott Hoying and Mario Jose. It will knock your socks off!!!

[@karlamaeder4691]

The best cover I’ve heard of this song is from Sheldon Riley who was on the Voice Australia. That dude is AMAZING.

[@lisafreeman5115]

NOTE: SUPERFRUIT is Scott and Mitch - something they started years ago - the other 3 came together with 'Superfruit' to sing this song and it's brilliant!! You will find several songs where PTX or members of PTX invite someone else in (or are invited by other artists) to create something this special - They are a group of 'many' talents and no limits - 😊

[@IroAppe]

3:25: That was so funny, when you tried to start "Ok..." and then were just slapped with the Wall of Sound, the word stuck in your mouth, not being able to get it out :D

[@donnone7295]

Thanks for your reaction. I may have other comments, but after PRIDE I wonder if people still understand the meaning to Scott and Mitch. Recent assaults of our Supreme Court decision it's OK to discriminate against LGBTQ I wonder what this says to them.

[@karenwooltorton3313]

Totally random comment but you have the cutest, most photogenic dog in the world and he is asleep in the background???? I need more doggie to brighten my day !!

[@marablemorgan8292]

Amazing!!!!

[@marablemorgan8292]

Sort of hard to find a spot to stop, isn't it...!?!

[@judydechant9205]

Loved your reaction ❤ I might also suggest by SuperFruit their Guy.exe, Hip Hop Goes Broadway 1 & 2, and Feeling Myself. Best wishes from Tennessee 😊🇺🇸

[@elinchristensen4854]

Check out Scott & Mario's version of LP's Lost on you - absolute fire 🔥

[@ivanalaff5346]

High Beams, indeed!

[@johnthegreek5836]

Fricken awesome

[@icantthinkofagoodname1838]

You really want to do yourself a favour and check out the cover of Lost On You that Scott and Mario did. Scott mashed Lost On You with a piece of music by Has Zimmer. Its stunning

[@marablemorgan8292]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Lindos .... Amo 💕

[@tyseemahbishop6123]

Do you have any PTX reactions?

[@judydechant9205]

He has done several PTX reactions 😊

[@kristipierce4735]

You really are missing out on the full experience by not using headphones. Just a friendly suggestion 😊

[@marablemorgan8292]

Where are your headphones!?!

[@AprilG72271]

Do you have earbuds in? I can't see them so if not I highly recommend them. You miss so much without them

[@marablemorgan8292]

Only upgrades...

[@adam.4487]

I love this and have heard it over a hundred times. Can't get enough, it was hard to actually watch because the mouth movements were not synced up with the words. It's just funny that way. It's ok, I still enjoy it, I just didn't look at the mouths.

[@marablemorgan8292]

Are you ready for this...?
