[@danieldominick2715]

I guess I'm pretty randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?

[@karterquentin8732]

@Daniel Dominick i watch on FlixZone. Just search on google for it :)

[@tysonmaddux1126]

@Daniel Dominick Try Flixzone. Just google for it :)

[@MattCoversTech]

Shout out to Jamey Ray for the incredible arrangements he comes up with for this group to sing. The layered harmonies he writes are incredible.

[@thomasbohannan2699]

Absolutely agreed. A lot of the responsibility for the incredible sound and musicality of this group are due to his incredible arrangements of the pieces.

[@muzikamor2923]

So THAT'S the man responsible for this godly grafted piece??? I just need a PIECE of his imagination!!!

[@garybnkr]

I was wondering who arranged it. Sometimes I don't think the arrangers get enough credit.

[@jonahbrame7874]

And the low end was so subtle and blended so well and added so much to it.

[@Rosannasfriend]

Your outfit matches the background. How did you accomplish that?

[@BoogieBitch69]

LMAOOOO

[@ThatGamerGirl100]

Haha I just noticed!!

[@stephaniezimbalist3757]

Tara's not playin' games, she'sout here, matchin' in these streets. If you're really quiet you can hear her saying "I woke up like this. Flawless"

[@lexlex__1756]

It looks like a second hobby. Paint the walls to match the color of the dress, or vice versa. Tara can always surprise us beautifully. )

[@lowellmorton1708]

I totally agree about the music theory behind the arrangements. All arrangements are done for Voctave by Jamey Ray, the tenor who only has one arm. He arranges the music specifically for the singers. That's why the music sounds so good. He was influenced early on by Derric Johnson and his group, the Regeneration, who also arranged for the Voices of Liberty at Epcot, where Jamey worked. Jamey has also arranged some songs for Penatonix. He is a music professor for Rollins College. He is phenomenal and his arrangements make Voctave who they are.

[@maximel.3292]

I've said it once, I'll say it one million times... I see Tara and Voctave in the same video, I like it. Simple.

[@marcus252phone]

Truly

[@DereBear]

I love their arrangements as a composer not just because of the lush harmonies but the voice movement is beautiful and something I strive for

[@ThatGamerGirl100]

Giiiirl that hair is on 🔥🔥!! (And so is Voctave!) 😍

[@spencerwoolley5265]

React to the Pentatonix cover of Can You Feel The Love Tonight!!

[@Clark98]

YESSS Tara do it!!!! Mitch hits his highest mix note ever on an A5 haha

[@bentaton3702]

Do it!!! Do it now!!! 😍😍😍

[@noellerumsey7176]

YES

[@sarahharkin3938]

Let me just say that the bass is STELLAR! Overall I love hearing the wonderful harmonies!!

[@alansoares1000]

These guys are simply out of this world! Tears roll on my face almost every time I listen this performance!!!

[@craigroth8710]

You too?!!! That last bit at the end gets me every time!!

[@garybnkr]

I'm a 71-year-old man and cry all over my keyboard when I listen to them.

[@rlturnmyre1]

It's literally like a beautiful lullaby. So pristine.

[@RachaelSteiner]

“I’m going to have to shave again.” Solid laugh out loud moment. 😂

[@averagerow1029]

This is a flawless performance, the harmonies are just astounding and you're right, there is so much music theory in this piece! Great review and love the new backdrop and hair!!!

[@cdcotr]

Voctave gives me goosebumps each and every time! And elicits so many positive feelings. They just make me smile.

[@gv5884]

Great video, Tara! I just noticed that some of the times you noticed and talked about Kate's voice, it was actually Tiffany singing

[@neerajemanuel7771]

She doesn't realise the full potential of Tiffany!! She has to hear some of her solos!

[@jefferyneu3915]

The bass is as impressive as Kate soaring above it all. That rendition is simply perfection!❤️

[@brucegonzalez2306]

Please listen to Voctave's cover of "This is my wish/Let there be peace on earth"

[@demontvictor]

Bruce Gonzalez yes

[@craigroth8710]

Absolutely!!

[@stoneshack2000]

Wow, that was beautiful, as are you Tara, thank you so much for the reaction. hugs

[@FitzieJJ]

Aretha Franklin- Natural Woman- 2015- Kennedy Center. She was 73

[@W0rdsmiff]

OMG, Tara! You plucked the word right out of my head (crystal)! Kate's voice is like a crystal held up against a warm light. Brava to Kate! Love Voctave. Once again, thank you for sharing.

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Thank YOU for watching 😘

[@illfate757]

Holy sh!t!!! This is incredible, gave me chills throughout the entire thing. This is crazy, beautiful majestic! All I could keep saying was OMG! After listening to this I don't even wanna request who I wanted to anymore.

[@Tarasimonstudios]

😂😂😂

[@GAR23LOVMUZ]

Tara Love Your Reactions. Voctave Thank You For The Gift Of Your Music..

[@Patobaresi1984]

You are talented, smart, gorgeous and professional. I love you. Subscribed

[@rickl1255]

I'm a geek for you and your reviews and your evident joy for what you do, and I'm a super-geek for Voctave. But one thing I'd like to suggest is that you also give a shout-out to Jamey Ray for the stunning, complex, intricate arrangements he does for this group, creating overlays of voice that can sound like a complete symphony in the background. I feel as if a lot of their sound, including the flawless entrances and cutoffs to phrases/measures, is a product of his genius. Also, I love how you react to Kate's excellent, beautifully-controlled, highly-trained voice, but don't overlook Tiffany, who also is brilliant and soars to the stratosphere with power. I'm surprised that with you having reviewed pretty much all of Voctave's other Christmas pieces, you haven't reacted to their O Holy Night, with Tiffany out front. Talk about chills! Sandi Patty, with whom Tiffany has toured, can hit that no better. It's a masterpiece.

[@garybnkr]

Rick, I'm geeking along with you. Thanks for all you said.

[@lauriep2018]

I LOVE the altos in this group. I feel like they are so unappreciated and it would feel so empty without them.

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Represent Altos!!! Lol!

[@garybnkr]

I just saw you for the first time. As I'm watching you, I feel myself moving with you while listening to Voctave. I'm a new fan of yours. Subscribed!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Awww yay! So glad to have you part of my Tarabyte family ❤️

[@creationsbychancecan]

I love Kate's voice and the harmonies from everyone else was top notch. Thank you ever so.much for reacting to this song

[@priscillaworth6907]

OMG!!! I had goose bumps the entire song! So well executed & beautiful. Awesome cover to a classic song!!!

[@svannuffelen]

Tara, just seeing your reactions on this (and other) clips is a real joy ! From the bottom of my heart ... you have to be an amazing person. It's weird but many times when I think about something during a clip , you say it right before I do. Your musical gift and feeling is a joy to watch. (I am not a singer, but a musician ... ) Thank you for all these nice vids !

[@hansentw]

The word that comes to mind EVERY time I hear Voctave, especially their harmonies, is Lush. They are so full, so warm, so true.

[@donaldparlettjr3295]

Like "butta" that is the perfect description. Absolutely love your full on summer look especially the orange nail color.👍

[@saidamir2481]

Omg your background is just everything 😍

[@markmoreno8603]

Looking lovely as always Mrs.Tara n I always enjoy how you explain everything. Keep up the wonderful work.👍

[@miriamrodriguez6892]

Never heard of them FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@w.b.t.127]

BEAUTY COMES IN ALL FORMS.

[@slickvic40]

That was a wonderful a capella rendition of Somewhere Over The Rainbow. I don't think I have ever heard it a capella before. It moved me for sure. It gave me goosebumps. Thanks for reacting to it...

[@kyledavies4421]

Can you please react to Pentatonix can you feel the love tonight??? Its just audio right now but the video is probably coming soon!!❤️❤️ Love your videos

[@noellerumsey7176]

YES

[@sinsin3123]

Thanks Tara!! I have been waiting so eagerly, it's me again who asked you if you had something going on with Voctave.😃

[@lucasvanduren6210]

I've always underestimated them, but this showed me not too. Tara, please react to Everyone by Sohyang, my fav song of hers. All what you said about curing depressions, etc, I feel that too with her

[@alanobrien5051]

Your hair is amazing. And the reaction too. Love to see you back to watching voctave. Can't get enough of them or you. So keep it up and stay awesome

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Aww thanks hun!

[@jameslawrence6602]

When the sound of voices harmonizing together hits my ears makes me wanna cry😭

[@Chasethemorning]

Tara Simon is such a dreamboat

[@eggzachly7]

hey tara!!! just letting you know you are doing great on this channel and i’m super proud of u and i could tell you love what you do! never stop.

[@danielcameron9857]

I would have never known about Voctave without Tara...

[@demontvictor]

OMG, ok I’m already loving this new set up. So happy that you react to more Voctave! You should also check their old stuff like Someone Like You or Let There Be Peace On Earth !!!! And you should also react to Shoshana Bean and Amber Riley’s Never Loved a Man live ! It’s a-m-a-z-i-n-g.

[@myheartwalks]

I like when you technical, speaking of the theory behind the music. That helps the vocal teachers out here.

[@cassiewinters331]

Ugh. I feel like I’m listening to a Disney soundtrack. It's literally that perfect

[@ronallen6578]

For you and Voctave to sing together, that would just be beautiful to hear!! MAKE IT HAPPEN---PLEASE☺☺☺!!

[@ethanb8695]

Please please please react to Voctave singing ‘The Impossible Dream’ it’s AMAZING!!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

On my list! Thanks!

[@craigroth8710]

Fantastic!!!

[@gv5884]

Can you please react to the cover of "Moon River" they just released? I'm sure you will love it as well

[@craigroth8710]

Another great one from Voctave!!!

[@johncourtright1632]

Yes, Moon River!

[@ryugamingultrapromax]

Amazing cover !

[@Tanyara89]

Dimash - Ogni pietra in Arnau, Astana!!! Don't watch the Minsc performance since it barely shows Dimash. The fan cam video from Arnau shows his technique brilliantly!

[@OriginalNuckChorris]

This is Arnau's TV version kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZuwd2OepLilgLM

[@jefferyneu3915]

Butta wishes it could be that smooth!❤️

[@arthurdyjak9229]

Thanks a lot! They singing like angels.

[@patermt7216]

The group sound: Gorgeous You : Super gorgeous

[@wbutrico7627]

you need to react to zip a dee do dah ( i am sure I spelled that wrong. lol ) by voctave... very difficult rythem patterns, modulations and subsitutions.. you will most definitely enjoy it.. fantastic performance... reminded me of something take 6 would have done...

[@linneafahrnkopf7462]

Oh, my gosh, your shaving comment regarding your goosebumps! Had me cackling. It was beautiful. Makes me want to sing that song in Adobe Audition and layer some of the harmonies! :)

[@garylife5320]

For choir directors, many of their arrangements are available for purchase on their website!

[@dianagerding8541]

Beautiful.. ❤️💜💙💚💗💖🧡

[@dpcabili]

Tara thank you for introducing me and my wife to Voctave! Your rock! Love from France 🇫🇷!

[@johnradwanski8344]

Tara if you really love Rainbows you need to look up The Most Happy Fellows barbershop quartets version. It would be listed as The Wizatd of Oz program. There are several versions out there but you need to find one with an older bass as the lion. That is the orginal championship quartet. I've bern blessed to hear it several times in person and the tenor Bob Hodge would sing The Look In Your Eyes on occassion. My wife decided that us what she wanted at our wedding and we were able to have Bob with a diffrent quartet sing that at our wedding thirty-five years ago. That song is a tearjerker and there are several videos of it out there. Love your reactions to diffrent vocalists but I definitely agree that Voactive is my favorate.

[@Squash1544]

Their harmonies are insane... You should definitely listen to Katrina Velarde sing this song, it’s amazing also!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

A few have actually requested her!

[@Squash1544]

It would be awesome if you reacted to her singing this song.. there are several different live versions of her .. her July 4th version from last year and there is another where I think she was in Canada, she is wearing a black dress . These are my favorite two versions.

[@lizavanderveld8355]

So beautiful Loved it❤️ Thank you for this one! Btw you look sooo beautiful👑

[@josenpai]

OHMAAAAHGLOOOOOB!!! THAT WAS AMAZING!!!

[@magicmusic231]

I saw them live once and they sound just as amazing as they sound in their videos

[@ericdustin4663]

Would really like to see you review their Great Movie Medley. Because, the majority of the piece is mostly vocal music without lyrics. Only about 8 to 12 bars of lyrics. Also, Kate Lott hits some notes in stratosphere.

[@bandgeek8902]

Ptx made a cover of “Can You Feel The Love Tonight” it is amazing!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Ok thanks!

[@AndiStephen]

Absolute chills

[@susan1098]

I love this song. My mom use to play it on the piano for us as kids. Imagine 7 of us standing around the piano listening to her play this song for us all the time. I wasn’t to crazy about this particular version.

[@MichaelBaker-hi9hl]

How have you still not done voctave’s great movie medley yet?!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Lol! How have you not requested it yet?! Just added it to my list! Thanks!🙌🏻🤗

[@Rosannasfriend]

I'm glad that you finally got to this video. I got into them because of you, and I subscribe to their KZbin channel about a month ago.

[@dtyodeller]

Kate Lott is a classically trained coloratura soprano.

[@jamescrilley1041]

“I’m Not Broken” performed by One Voice Children’s Choir. I think you will like some of their vowels 🙂

[@blackwidowbrigade5042]

Sohyang- "Dream"

[@Kop1972]

Beautiful!

[@kirashinigami1632]

Wow a new backgroud! Love it so much!!! Tara please make a reaction of so hyang-everyone! A huge love from me hahah!

[@toyag638]

Beautiful

[@ankhgirl3]

Kate’s name needs to be Crystal!! Here voice is just so pure, crisp and clean!! I love watching and hearing her sing. Perfection!!

[@TheTarussell]

I love listening to your point of view, the good and the bad. I also love Voctave and always like hearing what you think about it from a professional point of view! Thank you, keep them coming! Since others are asking about a song, I will throw out Voctave ZIppity Doo Dah... Thanks again, oh and I don't usually comment, but your Christmas with Voctave was Awesome! Thank You!

[@holysex1052]

This was beautiful 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

[@Love_Lara]

I am loving the new background ❤.

[@johnbethell1952]

They are Awesome

[@singerforever223]

Love the new look of your hair! A little blonde for the summer 💕☀️

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Just had to shine a little bit 😉

[@JLogg444]

Please react to Voctave O Come Emanuel/The First Noel/Wonder as I wander

[@worshipmusic4260]

Could you please react to Hillsong United singers like Taya Smith, Joel Houston, Benjamin Hastings etc. no one has commented on how well they sing could you be the first?

[@melaniebrainerd3255]

You would enjoy Ptx’s version of this song as well. There is equally as much going on in it. I believe there is only an audio of it on KZbin tho.

[@kellyhenson3316]

Beautiful!!! Kentucky here!

[@thomashansen1169]

I love this! so good! TS your amazing love your hair!

[@GodsPrincess365]

Could you react to Voctave's- Anything You Can Do and Zippity-Do-Dah?

[@kassidyj97]

You gotta react to Pentatonix’s cover of “Can You Feel The Love Tonight”

[@archiebayaras625]

Good day madam, that dress and "that" wall looks great, your the most well dressed youtuber I know, since your also into vocal groups I would like to recommend the Philippine Madrigal Singers @ Abbey of Mont Saint Michel, they're a choir group who have won various competitions abroad, hope you enjoy listening to them

[@rahullovesthepayne8690]

A new background omg. We love. 🌸💜

[@mbl626]

I think you would enjoy Yolanda Adams how great thou art

[@mikhaellockhart4925]

RIGHTTTT

[@mikhaellockhart4925]

RIGHTTT

[@mikhaellockhart4925]

It has to be the one performed at the White House though.

[@petesmith6213]

It's terrific to hear a professional critique exceptional talent. Voctave is in a class by themselves. Hope they ask you to join them for a couple sets. If you have time, take a listen to the cover band Foxes and Fossils do "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes". They're a great example of extraordinary talent that no one's heard of. If you watch, the two girls are 15 and 16 years old, mature singers way beyond their age. Keep up the great videos here. Lot's of fun to watch.

[@mikeboucard8535]

I would love to hear you sing this song

[@theloneranger8725]

This was beautiful, but I wish they had sung the introduction in the song at the beginning. At the Oscars in 2014, Pink sang this song as a tribute to The Wizard of Oz and Judy Garland, and she sang the full song, including the introduction. To me, it just adds so much to the meaning of the song when that is done, and I really would like to hear how Voctave would do it.

[@debb903]

I hear a lot of reference to different ways you make your voice sing. ( I may have wording wrong) stomach, chest and head. Could you make a video on exactly how and what this means. Especially head.

[@nellierosen1016]

Can you react to Chris Kläfford when he was on america’s got talent (he’s cover of imagine)☺️💕

[@fritzfelole]

Love you Tara, and I love your videos!

[@cjdonald1983]

Tara! You've gotta react to Diana Ankudinova, singing Wicked Game! She is amazing! She is the protege of Ivor Krutenoy, who works with Dimash!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Another popular request! Totally on my list!
