[@manuelodonnell1148]

I think that one of the things that sets them apart is their absolute mastery of dynamics. They can go from wall of sound to a perfect unison stop-and-rest-silence, and they even vary the level of attack on each note according to what they are using it for.

[@Trapper50cal]

Beat me to it...I would add arrangement. Because a lot of the dynamics are planned.

[@equinox484]

Scott actually does the bass whereas Kevin is a tenor

[@m.nicole7996]

I’ve been a fan of Pentatonix since 2013; since Avi Kaplan -the original bass singer-was in the group.. and I always thought that Kevin and Scott both had a Baritone voice. Mitch is a Tenor. Matt can have a Baritone and Bass voice (I remember I was in choir with a guy who was both a Baritone and Bass). And Kirstin is a Mezzo-Soprano.

[@perfectkismet]

@@m.nicole7996 Kevin is absolutely a tenor. His range is smaller than the rest, but he can go higher than Mitch. Check out his solo performance of "Down" and you'll see there is no way he's covering a bassline.

[@chelliespider]

Ha lots of people who haven't seen Kevin sing think he might cover bass when the bass is singing 😄. He's actually a tenor, and Scott is the one with the exceptional range who covers bass.

[@aaronbarlow4376]

Definitely she should react to that one, it's a masterpiece.

[@joebarnhart4460]

While not a bass, Kevin is massively talented at singing as well as percussion, cello, saxophone, and composition. Having Kevin sing throuout this entire song is like the hockey team pulling the goalie to put all five skaters on the attack. It changes the dynamic completely.

[@NicStryker1027]

Scott was doing the bass also check his bass in sound of silence

[@goiserrrhd6844]

Scott only did the bass when Matt was singing otherwise the bass was Matt. But still super impressive how amazing his range his to take over Matt’s bass so easily

[@williamdouglas8084]

That is actually Scott taking over base as always. They change so smoothly you can't see or here it. Scott's range is amazing!

You can watch the trade off between Scott and Avi in the live version of Hallelujah.

Thank you for catching up with PTX and great review by the way! I feel like this is an anthem for 2020. You really should hear there newest, Amazing Grace.

[@Karen-Campos]

Perfect description: haunting. Enjoyed your reaction! You have a beautiful smile. Appreciate your respect for PTX. They have redefined acapella for the music industry. Mitch’s “Look right through me” line was piercing and his harmonizing with Matt was phenomenal! We miss Avi but we love Matt too! He shines in Sound of Silence, Amazing Grace and Mr. Grinch. Girl, you are gonna love their new Christmas Album that just released. Half Christmas. Half Broadway! Just amazing! Looking forward to more PTX!

[@rmac1042]

What astonishes me is that they recorded this in ISOLATION in their own homes! Scott sings when Matt solos!

[@rmac1042]

Avi was a basso profundo, ( with a contra bass F# 4th ledger-line bass clef) Matt is a lyric bass. Scott sings bass when Avi/Matt solo. Kevin is a tenor with perfect pitch, so he can sing the chordal extensions with ease. During Matt’s solo Kevin is in the high harmony!

[@Catherine.Catherine]

Hey Christi, if you want more Matt, he takes the lead on You’re A Mean One Mr Grinch, and Scott takes the bass for it. I love it, they have so much fun with that one, you’ll love it! 😉

[@AnnieNYC1]

I adored your reaction at the end of the song. That groan-sigh that says it all without words. They are spectacular, aren't they? The genius of their production and process and performance is absolutely stellar. That are chameleons of music, too, with the changes in color and range and volume (not the loudness, but fullness) and resonance and and and that each one of them is capable of doing and continues to explore. It is lovely. Lovely. Lovely. And oh-so-timely, too. Yes. Here's to a mad world finding its way back to saner times soon. Stay well, all.

[@BillBeckham]

Scott is the bass under Matt's lead line. Scott carries the bass line in their version of Halleluha when Avi is singing the lead line. Kevin is singing the high line. When Kevin isn't beatboxing they go from 4 part harmony to a 5 part harmony.

[@lauraa4294]

"I don't think any group can beat the refined sophistication of Pentatonix". BEST compliment I've ever heard given to them (and I've heard a lot!). I hope you do more reactions to them.

[@joezaster4978]

Pentatonix sound of silence is a must

[@flyngalan]

That was a most refreshing analysis! As a professional singer/actor of over fifty years experience, my instinct is to deconstruct performances, as you have here. Their choices of voice production are key to how they build the emotional performance and their conscious clear diction helps immensely too. They stagger breaths to maintain movement, but breathe as one when needing to. No ragged consonants help to maintain their cohesiveness too. This is a master-class!

[@TheVoiceLoveCo]

Well said, sir. It is so lovely to hear from another colleague! Cheers!

[@ehcimocs2364]

I really enjoyed how perceptive your reaction is. And detailed. PTX is worth your reaction. They have always amazed me with their talent and their ability to keep getting better and better. Please do more PTX. Latest is Amazing Grace. You will love it. AMAZING

[@lindamorris3149]

It's amazing that they were able to coordinate this so well. Props to them and to their mixers, engineers, etc.

[@oliviac6627]

In live performances, Scott does often covers bass notes while Matt (or Avi in older performances) sings lead. Sometimes he can nail the low notes; sometimes the notes are lost; and sometimes he goes up an octave. Probably depends on how he's feeling on any given day. In their official videos, you're often hearing layered low notes from Matt/Avi during their leads.

[@doriawayne2746]

First half was true, but the latter part was not. They do use layers but they don't layer the bass line, you can hear the differences of low notes between Scott and Avi/Matt in most of songs.

[@pjschmid2251]

@@doriawayne2746 yes and I’m pretty sure when they arrange their songs they arrange the bass part knowing that Scott is going to have to cover that base line during performances. Also as would be expected as Scott gets older his lower range is getting stronger.

[@mecfstraveler]

@@doriawayne2746 Yes. You're absolutely right! Scott has strengthened the lower end of his range since Matt came onto the scene and he has become even more versatile than he already was by being able to cover the bass line with confidence and I've even heard Scott do a few slides. But they do not layer the same voice when it comes to the bass line. Kevin is always in the higher-end of his range when they're doing multiple voice harmonies and they often pair him with Kirstie. Kevin actually has the highest note of the males in the group, even higher than Mitch (which was hard for me to accept because I'm a Mitch fan) but Scott, Mitch and Kirstin have said over and over again that Kevin has the highest note. I am really impressed with how solid Scott's bass has become! It frees Matt up to sing in the higher part of his range and it's beautiful!

[@maxim5585]

Loved your reaction! You’d love their latest release of Amazing Graze. And you. And Matt has a great solo in their cover Sound of Silence.

[@mimiloveee9]

They are UNMATCHED ❗️❗️❗️ I saw them live it was LIFE CHANGING 😭😭😭

[@anessalyn1035]

Pentatonix is shedding light on the "Mad World" we're living in by sharing a heartfelt cover of Tears of Fears' 1983 hit. The poignant clip finds the group amid a dark scene, belting the song and the pensive chorus, "I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take / When people run in circles it's a very very / Mad world, mad world."

[@LeskeyC001]

Thank you so much for returning to do PTX. I enjoyed your take on the various parts of the song and I will be looking forward to more PTX on this channel. I’m fascinated by the seemingly infinite possible combinations of their voices. Matt + Mitch (Match?) was a revelation here for me.

[@louellamoyer5578]

Thanks so much for the reaction. This song has so much in the arrangement yet is simply executed in deep and rich tones...Excellent!

[@stevek5332]

I love your reactions and analysis, Christie! PTX's cover of "Sound of Silence" would give you a great insight both into Scott's amazing lower register as well as Matt's seemingly endless power. He can't get as low as Avi, but he brings other aspects to the group. In his higher register his voice blends surprisingly well with Scott's. Another song that fits these difficult times perfectly is Angelina Jordan's first release from Republic Records, produced by Stargate, "Million Miles". It's an homage to her grandfather, but meant for all who have lost a loved one. Several serious reactors have lost it during the song. Be sure to react to the interesting official lyric video which includes art by her grandmother (probably helped by Angelina herself). Here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJmug5trj9mojc0 I live to say that Angelina is an artist who paints emotion with her voice.

[@Karenlowry1]

Scott picks up the bass part when Matt sings lead, he did it with Avi too.

[@tonywright1682]

Kevin is a tenor he is not singing bass Matt and Scott trade bass duties

[@timothybuell3314]

If you want a good read on Kevin's voice, you should watch one of the videos on his personal KZbin page. Or you can watch Little Drummer Boy, where he has a solo near the end, or watch Amazing Grace/My Chains are Gone.

[@specialplaylists3230]

Nice Analysis! Totally agree with you. The funny thing in this is that, if you listen to the Tears for Fears original after listening to this cover, you immediately realize that this PTX one is closer to the feeling that the song is supposed to transmit... (in my honest opinion). OK, different periods in time, different music-styles and fashions at each time, but this one is closer to the emotion-side of the story. Obviously the pandemic situation helps PTX now, but world was already Mad when Tears for Fears released it!. Their "Thank You" song is also tasteful and emotional in this Pandemic situation... hope you'll react to it ;D BTW, Kevin singing register is quite high (most of the time with Kirstin in the background)... Scott is the one covering Matt when leading (as it happens in Hallelujah when Avi leading). Scott range is impressive! See you in the next one

[@avoiceuk]

You really need to listen to the acoustic version of Mad World Kurt Smith (who recorded it with Tears for Fears) did with his daughter. It’s incredible.

[@olabergvall3154]

Many have said this, Scott is the one who always takes over the bass when Matt/Avi is/was singing lead. You'd be forgiven for thinking it would be Kevin, especially in this video where there is no percussion going on. Keep up the good work ❤

[@DallasHarte]

whenever matt the bass is singing it is Scott that takes over the bass line just like when Avi was in the group Scott would take over bass line when Avi sang.

This is actually not a cover of the Tears for Fears recording. (1983). It’s a cover of the Gary Jules’ record, (2001). Jules recorded it for the film “Donnie Darko”, and it became a worldwide smash hit. It reached #1 in many countries, including the US. By contrast, the original was #8 in the UK bJules ended up making a video after the fact. His version is darker, slower and sadder...which is what this is!!

was going to do a Rabbit Hole Run (what I call following youtube suggested videos...music only, not reactions or whatever...just the songs themselves...I've discovered a lotta great new bands/singers that way), and the first suggestion I got was a live video from the amazing John Prine,, of a song I'd never heard before. It's called *"Hello In There".* Don't know why/how the algorithm chose that particular song, but when I checked it out, I knew I had to send it your way. Not sure if it's the poignant simplicity? Or the heartfelt vocals? Or the soul wrenching lyrics? All of the above? But I knew it was something I had to share. Tissues recommended kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYfLcmNnf5WNqck

[@r0kus]

I give Tears for Fears full credit for the brilliant lyrics. However, perhaps they did not fully understand what they had. Their 1982 version was fast and poppy. The slow, haunting arrangement did not come until 2001, when Gary Jules and Michael Andrews rearranged it for the movie _Donnie Darko._ I've never seen anyone cover the Tears for Fears arrangement since. You didn't comment on the ghost-shadow imagery used in the video. I believe that was another callback to _Donnie Darko,_ with its themes of alternate reality and intentional "offness."

[@vincentmorissette6532]

It was probably Scott, and not Kevin, who was singing the bass line when Matt was singing the melody. As a marvalous baryton, Scott has an amazing range. You can listen their version of The Sound of Silence, for another example of Scott singing as bass : kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZW5m4mqpddoa68

[@thomasarussellsr]

I'm surprised you didn't remark on Mitch singing in his lower register and still singing so beautifully. We are all used to hearing him way up in his upper tenor ranges. Hearing him in his lower range is unusual and still so beautiful. I can only imagine how much more haunting this song would have been with Avi's bass in a section of solo somewhere in the mix. Yes, they did a beautiful job with this song, but I am allowed to miss Avi. I still love this group, but it just seems like a different group to me without the resounding bass pushing up from underneath the music. The "new" bass has a good sound, but it does not present itself like Avi's did.

They actually said this is a cover of Gary Jules recording. Like it or not, the Jules cover was a much bigger hit. It reached #1 in many countries, including the US. The Tears for Fears original reached #8 in the UK. I suspect they chose this version because Jules’s recording is better known to most people.

@@drieuxkoeppel8152 I was a teenager when the original was a hit, and I'm British, so it has more meaning to me. I also think the faster tempo could have made a more interesting version. It would also have challenged them. I don't actually dislike this or Pentatonix.
