THEY THE GOATS FOR THIS! | Reaction to Evolution of Rihanna - Pentatonix

[@Anna-xx1lv]

Gold - Pentatonix (Kiiara Cover)

[@Anna-xx1lv]

Dave, you’ve become one of my all time favorite PTX reactors. You understand and appreciate their gifts and raw talent! ❤️ I can’t seem to find if you have reacted to their cover of Gold - Pentatonix (Kiiara Cover). What a masterful cover! Make sure you watch the original first if you don’t know it (or just refresh your memory) What Mitch does with this song is mind blowing! I KNOW you will enjoy!! Thanks! ❤️

[@AnjeannetteMarie-Swifie4Ever]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Matt’s personality meshes much better with PTX. Don’t get me wrong, Avi is phenomenal but his vibe is more deep / serious while Matt’s is more bubbly. They’re both incredible and I’m grateful Avi gave us so many mind-blowing performances but I’m happy he’s doing what he wants and Matt picked up the mantle and ran with it ❤️

Well said! Matt is such a joyful spirit! Avi is a magnificent talent, and he was a wonderful performer within the group, but the bottom line is he needed things he couldn't have if he stayed - a lifestyle and career that just didn't fit with the group's way of working anymore. I was worried at the time, because they are so small and tight that nothing can be hidden when they perform, and even one loss could have thrown their dynamic off and changed their sound completely. Plus their appeal hasn't been solely due to their monster talents, individually, they also have a shared generosity of spirit, they are good, kind, humble people, they leave their egos at home, they mutually have a strong work ethic, they are all extremely intelligent in different ways, they are diverse but cohesive, and they put their whole self into performing - nobody phones it in. To find somebody with not just the musical talent, but also the personal characteristics and synergy with the group was astonishing the first time when three kids were born in the same friggin town within months of each other, and again when the trio first added Avi and Kevin. To make a perfect addition once again is beyond fortunate for all of us. I swear there is some sort of divine cosmic magnet intervening to bring these particular people together.

[@st4rpt_603]

I love Avi as much as the next person, but he got even better after he left and so did PTX and now we are blessed to have a talented group and a talented solo singer....double the music!

[@2436golden]

That sums it up perfectly.💯

[@2436golden]

@@ShinyElfriend " there is some sort of divine cosmic magnet intervening to bring these particular people together." I was just thinking that recently Since I am a Christian, I told a friend that God had a hand in their coming together.

[@mimiloveee9]

I cannot express how much that my MITCHY MITCH IS EVERYTHING 😍❤️‍🔥😍 in person yall wouldn't believe how he is ..how he comes off in the vids/& Superfruit tines 10 frfr he is a Gift from God to Earth 💫 they all are but that one there is special🦄

[@bonnieflynn4798]

I love Matt so much. He is a joyous talent. Everyone loved Avi. But Matt brings passion and talent too. Mitch is a huge Rhianna fan and it shows

[@domagojbatinic1526]

for you people in US, support Acapop kids on America got talent, Scott co-founded that group

[@HH-yo2bs]

I love that you hear and appreciate the intricacies of their arrangements! I also love that you don't just hear Mitch's high notes but actually appreciate the technique behind his singing. Many people can sing high, but very few have his vocal control. His placement choices and register transitions are phenomenal. The way he masters his craft is often overlooked for the sheer astonishment of hearing a man sing counter tenor, which is understandable but a pity. Thanks very much for your reaction, pleasure as always! I think you'd very much enjoy their Carol Of The Bells - to this day one of the greatest arrangements they've done ever.

[@2436golden]

Exactly, It's not just the beautiful high notes it's the mastery behind the notes and what he does with them.

[@dariyakhokhel2382]

The live version from the Christmas Under the Stars this year, it really is phenomenal

[@heidifruchtl354]

Saw this live, before the video was released and my poor hubby was having trouble figuring out what was going on. Mitch introduced that they were going to do it and gushed how much he loved Rhianna.

[@fauxmedia3182]

Whenever I see you drop a PTX reaction, I can’t run 🏃🏼‍♀️ fast enough to grab my headphones 😉✌🏼😂 Everytime I hear Matt say “Ella”, ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🫦 ~Pentaholic from Louisiana

[@whatitdodave]

😂 Thanks for watching!

[@vickiandrews4087]

I'm cracking up with your "ugly face" fun reactions! Great time here!!

[@MSKPELLEGRINO]

Mitch is like a night fury dragon (the one from how to tame a dragon) he swoops in seemingly out of nowhere, delivers shock and awe, then slips away and blends into the group like the night fury blends into the darkness

[@elainecourteau6231]

My goodness! You know them all!! 🤗

[@BryanJustinXVII]

One of the many reasons I love Pentatonix so much is because in whatever they do it's intentional. If you watch any of their videos like "say something" or "evolution of music" the things they do are intentional to the minor details that many don't notice. I love them to death they are amazing. Going back from the Sing off to now and their talents, it's only gotten better. Their vocal abilities have just grown stronger over the years.

[@lexymich22]

If you want to know more about Matt please watch the intro to Matt Sallee. You don't have to do a reaction (you can just watch it on your own) but it really gives you a full picture bc his dream was always to be in PTX and who would have ever thought that would happen?? Also, the members talk about him and how much joy he exudes and his work ethic too.

[@servantofmelian9966]

I had the pleasure of seeing PTX in concert last December. Matt is far more charming and charismatic on stage then the videos would suggest.

[@dylankuzda3724]

They are truly talented singers

[@melissacoviello2886]

I love this video so much! One of my favorites.

[@londonpaul100]

I totally agree with the others who have identified you as their favourite PTX reactor. You bring an appreciation for the subtleties that many other reactors miss. I know that you've reacted to Superfruit's Beyonce medley. However, it may be good timing to do a reaction to Superfruit's ANTI medley (Rihanna cover). It and their Empire medley are probably two of my faves.

[@neetgupta1]

I'm agreeing with Anna, Dave, you are rapidly becoming one of my favourite PTX reactors too. You balance being entertaining with being informative and so appreciative of what they can do. Keep going! Am loving your work!

[@JoyfulOrb]

Dave, I love your commentary, keep going hard!

[@loricharlonne2167]

I love the fact that you enjoy their arrangements and get how difficult it is to pull off what they do…perfection every time…they are so in sync and each member is a super human in their own right, but when they come together it’s magic every time 🔥🌹🎶💕

[@lorriredmon8212]

I just love watching how into the music you get. It's a pleasure to hear your reactions. I sometimes think you might bust a gut when you're trying to be quiet because everyone else in the house sleeping. LOL Thank you.

[@DonnaPoynton.]

Another of my favourites,Thanks Dave x

[@joebarnhart4460]

The amazing thing to me about these "evolution" videos is that they are filmed live, in one take. They are group miked, meaning they have few post tricks they can do to fix bad audio. In essence it's as close to a true live performance you can get in a video. And they slay it!

[@ms.laperry8106]

I saw Pentatonix preform this in concert.

[@lexymich22]

No one is out there doing it like PTX!!!

[@patriciaburton1697]

Lol. You always say that has to be the best and then PTX kills it again.

[@vidsorama2]

I enjoyed your reaction very much. Thank you for reacting to this, my favorite Pentatonix Evolution Of... video. Glad that you liked it. I love it so much. It's great to hear the perspective of a person who knows music. I learn a lot from your reactions and I look forward to more of your Pentatonix reactions. I appreciate your Matt appreciation. He is an amazing performer and an amazing human.

[@dwfarr]

The best PTX song is the one you are listening to at the time. Recommend their cover of Gold. Please listen to the original by Kiiara first if you don’t know the song.

[@buddasquirrel]

Love your PTX reactions. Thanks dude!

[@kristipierce4735]

I agree, Dave!! Love your commentary (and facial expressions)! 😁💜

[@ptxaholic]

Haha, your reactions though. You get so excited over whatever you're reacting to, that's why we love you. Thank you for both your analysis and personal opinions. 💚

[@marymichele340]

Love Matt and what he adds to PTX. Mitch has such vocal control. And Kevin-it has to be difficult to change beatboxing for several different songs in 5 minutes Well Kirstin and Scott are perfect Loved the expressions on your face during this!

[@lleldridge1]

OMG, so glad you did this... my fav PTX Evo... PTX flavor added, transitions🔥🔥🔥 Mitch fan-girling Rihanna so hard, the Matt/Kevin show. 💜your reactions, Dave, keep 'em coming.

[@sebb8347]

It was an almost impossible task to find a bass which was good enough to fill Avi's shoes, but Matt was as close to perfect as you're getting. He has so much fun and it shows, his basslines are always super interesting.

[@celiachristman104]

Great reaction as always to PTX. I'm a senior citizen and had never heard a Rihanna song, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE this evolution. I think Ariana Grande was their 2nd evolution with Matt.

[@davidphillips4476]

This is my favorite Evolution video, partly because i attributed some of these song to Beyonce, Rihanna was a HIT MONSTER!!! This was just MAGICAL..ALL of them KILLED IT!!

[@megjones7860]

Hello Dave. PTX are masters of mash ups, arrangements and seamless transitions. Have you done the PTX Sing Off Journey yet? To see how they started. Love how you really appreciate the talent of PTX.

[@karengiles8422]

Love this reaction- great breakdown of how they construct and de-construct the pieces. Speaking of Earth, Wind, Fire... have you reacted to Pentatonix's "Over the River" featuring Lindsay Sterling from their last Christmas album "Evergreen'?? Oh man, you will not believe it! It was amazing live too!

[@mimiloveee9]

N they always put their own spin on all the covers that & their mind blowing talent is why the the GOATS yo Noone touches the in acepella flat out .he'll they top most pp that use instatements ..n Bey & RiRi have gave them props b4 they had blew 💯💯

[@lexymich22]

I loved this reaction!!! I'm going to start binging your reactions as of today. My dad got cancer and passed away about a month and a half ago so I couldn't really watch reactions for a while when he was sick and now I'm slowly getting back to one of my favorite pastimes. Your admiration of even the tiny things they do is wonderful!! I implore you to please search for and watch intro to Matt Sallee. You will find out that he was pretty much destined to be in this group. I love love love him!! Mitch of course is my favorite but Matt is a close second but I love them all!! You can watch the intro to Matt sallee on your own time or react to it either one, but either way please please watch it.

[@friedagoodloe3430]

PTX= Perfect Transitions EXecuted

[@PaulaLPope]

Avi helped the group find his replacement before leaving...finding Matt.

[@Quincysof]

Awesome reaction 🥰 who doesnt love Mitch's voice. Check out his cover of Billie Eilish's "Your Power"

[@TheInkdN3rd]

Fun fact.....Umbrella was turned down by Britney Spears.....so Rihanna recorded it lol

[@jackyfriedman1963]

Just had to let you know that I found a really funny and cute video by Voiceplay. It's an older one with Tony. It's called "The Fox" . You'll get a good laugh out of it. If you do watch it make sure you watch it to the very end. They are total goofballs 😹

[@imtherapycat]

Everyone is amazing, but I just am gobsmacked by Kevin. I don't see how he doesn't hyperventilate.

[@robinhatcher8021]

Hey Dave! Love your show! Would you do me a favor? Step outside your regular comfort zone. I JUST found this and was hypnotized. It's called Lakota Lulliby, covered by Alexia Evellyn. It's a child's lullaby for Lakota Indian children in Lakota native tongue. Thanks!

[@JoeClaireNathanJodie04]

To see scott emotional react to LOST ON YOU by scott hoying and mario jose you will not regret it believe me!

[@diannakroeger9936]

It’s me again and I still want you to react to Kevin at age 17 at Carnegie Hall. Thank you!!!

[@texadian339]

👋👋👏👏

[@teresafletcher5535]

Avi found Matt to be his replacement.

[@lizziefrances]

Heeey, YT, I watched and liked this back when it came out. What's going on? You taking likes off creators now?

[@josiahrobinson6135]

It's not my favourite genre at all. Pentatonix has singers that I'd probably like better in solo projects; together, they just don't do it for me. Once again, though, I watched the entire video just because I love your reactions. I doubt seriously that I'd ever search for a Pentatonix song, though. For those that do like them, that's great; I'm truly happy for you. For me, they just don't do it.
