[@sheep2826]

Dropping octaves is actually one of the easier intervals, especially when you practice part singing a lot. You learn to audiate the difference between octaves very naturally. Harder intervals would be 7ths or 6ths.

[@doriawayne2746]

@@severusreynolds5247 No actually, Scott cannot sing deeper than Matt, otherwise Scott would be the "new" bass man in Pentatonix😂. So does for Mitch, he cannot "sing" higher than Bb5. From that aspect, Scott do have the widest range in PTX, at least that's what himself, Mitch and Avi said in some interviews years ago. I believe from their understanding, vocal range = the notes you can apply into singing. If let the vocal range = any pitch you can hit, then I don't think thier vocal range will be so impressive for so many people. Because many people can shout or squeak a really high pitch sound, or bubble a quite low note. But when it comes to singing, everyone knows that there is no way somebody can sing so beautifully at that high as Mitch or at that low as Avi.

As someone with ADHD and Asperger's, emotional logic is a concept, I can't completely grasp. The reason I watch you and no other, is because you explain why they made, the choices they have made logically. You use the logic of the English sentence structure and linguistics to explain why certain notes hit a consonant or vowel and I can follow that. I am in tears every video you post because with your explanations, I can grasp emotional connotation. Thank you so much, for your patience and technically impartial critiques. Thank you again, because of you, I understand musicality logically.

[@curtpoppenhouse2621]

One of the things that makes Pentatonix so special to me is their diction and annunciations are so clear and crisp (you can understand the words to everything they sing) as a side note there's the backstory to the song (yes I'm that old that I remember when it first came out. anyway here ya go What is the story behind the sound of silence? 'The Sound of Silence' by Simon and Garfunkel is a song written in the 1960's about the extent to which people suppressed their true views about the Vietnam War. The poetic voice is the poet himself and it is through his vision that we are made aware of the great disappointment that he feels at the peoples inability to say what is on their minds.

[@aaronbarlow4376]

Kirsten is the most underrated member, her high register cuts through the harmony and anchors the high range with a pure, bright female tone. Mitch's counter tenor is amazing too but he's on the falsetto side whereas Kirsten is a bit more natural and pure. Mitch can shine in certain ranges where a high, almost electronic sound is required like Blinding lights and Daft Punk but Kirsten is so rich and solid with her forward voice. Scott is the next underrated, his tone and expression is so rich and smooth, he switches from a softer raspy subdued tone to a rich forward placement effortlessly as well as filling in as bass when Matt or Avi is singing.

[@ben6993]

I don't think any of them are underrated to be honest, everyone knows how awesome they all are

[@aaronbarlow4376]

@@ben6993 Sure most people do but there's a tendency to hype up Mitch I've noticed.

[@bradsouthers7476]

I would say that the Disturbed version of this is ominous, but this one is defiant and even hopeful. Both are incredible renditions of the original (which is great in its own regard). Thanks for reacting to them both!

[@Kimber88LP]

Exactly! I love both versions, and both are incredible in their own way. Even my mother (who listens to nothing 'modern' and only oldies/country/Elvis loves Disturbed's version and really enjoyed Pentatonix's version, too.

[@kavak1344]

Well said

[@lindamorris3149]

Your analysis is so spot on!

[@Garbox80]

Yes, both are great while being so different versions. Or maybe that's why they are both so great. Disturbed's version is quite dark, anxious even and this builds up to a sort of "gospel choir uplifting praise" style. I guess thr reason why both versions work is that they have the passion and emotion in it. The lyrics include emotions in them and after hearing Disturbed covering this I realised that S&G originally didn't get everything out from this. But of course we have to remember that time wouldn't have been ready for Disturbed's style version. And I'd think that this choir type thing wouldn't have gotten much attention either.

[@david6321]

dude that's literally no comparison but the fact that it's the same song. It's an acapella operatic-like group versus a metal solo vocalist, I don't get why y'all even bringing this up

There is nothing more beautiful than a cappella vocals done by people with beautiful voices! You get to hear the human voice used, not only for delivering the lyrics, but also as musical instruments.

[@firewalldragon9774]

My personal favorite part of this cover is the arrangement. It is very smart. A great example of how smart it is can be seen in Mat's verse. On the line voices never shared, there is no way Mat would sound good on the high A in that line. Giving that line to Mitch while Mat took the harmony was a very smart idea.

[@keiramallory1613]

Firewall Dragon yes!! agreed!

Their video is basically what the last few minutes of earth would look and sound like before the apocalypse hit. It's like they are so into it that they are like singing for their lives. Like someone has a gun to their heads. Just so much passion. I always say if you are gonna sing, sing with your whole being or not at all because I don't want to hear a flat performance of a powerful song. I want to feel the song not hear it. I felt this song. I felt it a lot to the point that it nearly gave me an existential crisis. Love your reactions to them as well Tara. Love your analysis and how you break down the technical side of it all. I would love you to react to more PTX videos and maybe stuff that ate side and solo projects from individual members of the group.

[@joshrubak9110]

You are so very correct. Their arrangements are S.I.C.K. Then add in the talent and hard work every one of them brings to the group, and it's no wonder that when they do a song, 99% of the time, it's incredible. They have an amazing ability to wring out the emotion from every song they do: Joyous, sad, dance beat, whatever. You. Will. Feel. It. I will say though that out of the original and remakes of this song, I like Disturb's the most, but this version is still (as you show us) a master-class of how to sing right.

As a person who's not a singer it's really interesting to watch these videos and it makes me appreciate what Pentatonix does even more...

I can see that you "FEEL" the music!! There are some special songs that take me through different emotions and this is truly one of them. So for anyone reading this, if you see someone that just gets up and starts to dance, don't shame them.....they are just "feeling" the music and sometimes, you can't do anything except respond to that feeling.

This. Is. So. True!

I really recommend headphones for Pentatonix and Home Free to really appreciate the bass. Yes, it messes up your hair but the experience is worth it. Trust me.

I have been waiting for your reaction to this one! 💗 I know you're going to break it all down and I really like it cause I learn about the techniques they're using. I noticed them going to and holding out the "N" instead of the vowel. I just didn't know what it was about. I noticed that Scott didn't do one single riff or run, and I actually liked that choice for this number. I'm so glad you said that Matt fits in well with the rest of the group, and welcomed him! Earlier I heard a reactor say that Matt doesn't fit in with them, and he wished he'd leave. 😠 I thought that was an awful thing to say and completely untrue. I educated him on the error of his ways... he doesn't even know what he's talking about. YOU, however DO know what you're talking about, and you said Matt fits in well in the group! thank you for a lovely breakdown of the techniques and choices they made!

Listening to you sing is so amazing, your voice is so strong and powerful and delicate and graceful, it shows how much you love and enjoy music and those who express themselves through it, thank you for doing what you do and who you are.

"I love... Scott's voice... so much." GIRL I felt that.

I literally put notifications on for you because I was waiting for this and you didn't disappoint! I absolutely love how you break things down and I always learn something new from watching you!

I Love how you "lets hear that again" after you have explained something. 😊

You can REALLY tell how much Kirstin has been working on her tone. So much more rich and full sounding in this one than the thin but pretty tone shes always been known for. Love ittttt
