Wizard of Ahhhs By Todrick Hall ft Pentatonix Reaction | SCHNELL JORDAN REACTION VIDEOS

[@drieuxkoeppel8152]

Todrick Hall was introduced to the American public on American Idol, where he made it to the semi-finals. Through viral KZbin videos, he’s amassed quite a following. He was recently in a Broadway production of “Waitress”, and then most recently starred as Billy Flynn in the West End production of “Chicago”. He’s an occasional judge and choreographer on “RuPaul’s Drag Race”! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todrick_Hall?wprov=sfti1

[@heinleinreader]

I don't know if you've ever seen Rue Paul's Drag show on TV. Todrick is one of his. He is also from the same school that gave us Kirsten, Scott, and Mitch, he's just a few years ahead of them.

[@susansisson366]

Todrick Hall grew up in Arlington, Texas, a few years ahead of Kirstie and Scott, and knew them from childhood. He is an enormously talented director, writer, choreographer, singer, arranger, producer, and cinematographer. It was he who did this fabulous retelling of the Wizard of Oz stories, with up to date songs and lyrics, and then asked his friends to star in his production. Simply amazing! YOU REALLY NEED TO FOLLOW UP WITH HIS ORIGINAL, "BLACK AND WHITE" WITH THE TRIO CO-STARRING WITH HIM! Pretty please!

[@Jskew]

YEEEESSSSS! I love when reactors find this video. One thing most people miss is how each song tells the story. "Blown Away" is about a tornado. "Shoes" is about...well shoes. The scarecrow sings about thinking (wanted a brain), tin man's song is about his heart and the lion is about courage. Even the wizard's song was about power and the illusion of it. Great reaction. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

[@larrywt656]

The most genius music video ever produced! Everyone was absolutely brilliant in their parts...but let's face it, Kirstie was the ABSOLUTE star of this one. This was her first real chance to shine brightly and she knocked it out of the park!! Todrick grew up in the same city (Arlington, Texas) as Mitch, Scott & Kirstie. He was a couple of years older than them and went to a different high school, but they all knew each other from local musical theater.

[@Jskew]

Schnell I believe in my heart of hearts this is what you get when you put people together for years. Scott, Kirsty, and Mitch are who they are because they have sung together since high school. I don't think people really get that. I grew up in an era when teams had the same players for years and they learned one another in a way that only comes with time. You can not teach what Scott, Kirstie and Mitch have as far as listening to one another and really feeling dedicated to the sound of the group. Now you add and in KO and a Bass either Avi, let's not pretend he was amazing and we miss him, or Matt. What you are left with is nothing less than pure magic. Here is what I mean. A magician spends years, YEARS, perfecting a move to give you that 10 seconds of amazement. PTX has done the same. They have spent YEARS of singing together to give you that sound that makes you smile for a few seconds. Enjoy it acknowledge it. For it's beauty shall surpass us all. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

[@russellfisher2853]

If you really want to hear Kirstie's beautiful, and sassy voice, You absolutely have to hear her, and her whistle notes, in Seasons Of Love. She really let's go, feels the music, and show's even more of her amazing talent. Also love Kirstie and Scott's smiles, when they nail their parts.

[@jayholland2632]

Todrick also collabbed with "the trio" (Scott, Mitch, and Kirstin) on another of his songs called 'Black and White'. It is a really fun song with another great video.

[@jenniferdoolittle6935]

OMG! Such a fun upbeat song! And of course, they all kill it!

[@therealhaemony]

lol after the dozens of times I've seen this video, only JUST NOW did I realize that while Todrick is rapping, they're going "OH WEE OH" as part of the background vocals. *eyerolls at self*

[@sfcub-Bill]

This is typical Todrick Hall very theatrical, like all of his videos! He is an amazing talent! Pentatonix and SuperFruit have performed in a few of his videos. Black and White / Todrick's parody of Pentatonix Daft Funk video is epic. So talented!

[@davidbangtson3109]

PTX and Todrick Hall combine for the most inventive and superbly produced mash=up of all time in my opinion. Grammy worthy for sure.

[@danielsernajr4079]

I don't think you would never have to worry about anyone thinking bad about you. You are too sweet of a person.

[@susanb4213]

Toddrick is insanely talented. He said that Scott was with him during his American Idol audition (he made it and did pretty well). Anyway, one of my favorite Toddrick videos is called "4 the 90s," a wonderful medley of 90s music.

[@jimodell99]

Yes he is and did. I think he placed 10th the year he was in. But the judges sure missed Scott's talent.

[@trabo333]

I love the clips of the original WOZ in the background. Respect!

[@Yooperbuzz1]

OMG! Todrick Hall. Not only does he sing and have his own live shows that go on tour but ... He is a very sought-after producer in Hollywood. He co-produced with Taylor Swift the "You Need To Calm Down" video and acted in it and produced the MTV stage show for it for Taylor and sat with her at the MTV Awards. He also produced segments of Gwen Stephani's Christmas show a couple of years ago. The guy is dripping with talent and very well known. BTW - He shot the Wizard of Ahhhs with Pentatonix in 1 day.

[@davidphillips4476]

Invisible...i don't really want to know their minds lol...so same. Love it...Wait till you hear their newest new original Kirstin is amazing.

[@mamabearess2395]

ButterScott! bahahaha I totally love that

[@charlesheld3725]

Its impossible not to smile during this video.

[@michaelmclane8501]

I love coming back here and watching YOU be surprised. I give A NOD TO YOUR HUSBAND AND THANK HIM FOR SHARING YOU WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD

[@danieljodrey709]

I enjoyed seeing your obvious enjoyment. ❤🎯💯🎵🎶💞 Todrick Hall made the video and invited PTX.

[@corvus1374]

Todrick, Kirstin, Mitch, and Scott grew up together. Todrick was a contestant on American Idol. He does great arranging. He also did a video with the trio called Black and White, that's worth reacting to.

[@katieoberst490]

I'm with you on invisibility, no need to hear everyone's thoughts all the time lol. Love your reaction to this and the as long as you're on for the ride, enjoy it as much as you did this video, they're worth it!! Haha

[@pjschmid2251]

Definitely to read peoples minds. I’m already pretty much invisible and it’s no great shakes.

[@Rick-i6x]

I really like your positive and upbeat attitude in your reactions. You sound like a very loveable sort and I like your take on things. Keep up the great mindset and have a wonderful day!

[@shilohauraable]

Kirstin did do some weeks in the Broadway musical, Kinky Boots", a lifetime dream! She's also a guest with a much bigger & more formal a capella group, Vocative, in a Disney Princess medley! 💖

[@johndavidson5228]

Love the performance and the smile ☺️ it brings to your face.

[@shaunl3757]

I love how Todrick nods his head for Kristie to run in Scott's arms there at the end. Like a brother.

[@nickerpsg1]

I'm so glad you did this one...I KNEW you would LOVE this. It's fun and it really shines on Kirstie, although they all shined. Their talent is super-human. BTW, I also knew you were going to say (I noticed it was under your breath) 'is that Mitch?" near the beginning...I love when you do that !! Kudos to you re "ButterScott"...he's your current favorite, but I've heard you give love to each one in prior reactions. That's OK, because their are legions of Pentaholics that have their favorites, but the best is they love each other, which can be seen in their videos...especially the off mic, interviews and casual recordings. My favorite is Kirstie, not because she has the best voice (still amazing), but if you were to see the group's beginning, she was probably the most insecure member...yet, she has truly grown the most and is now totally confident of her talent and abilities. LOVE THEM ALL !! I can't wait until December, so I can start recommending a number of their Xmas songs...there is so many that will blow you away. I agree with you...I'd rather be invisible, because then I can be the "fly on the wall" to worldly events...how cool would that be !!

[@BW-lb3vd]

Kirstie was actualy on broadway doing"kinky boots" Shes a good actress.

[@briandavis1951]

Pentatonix did a complete cover of Somewhere over the Rainbow with Kirsty taking lead on their Classics album.

[@bambamnj]

Wow!! Thank you for doing this. I had not seen this video. So I was reacting to it right along with you. I love how they mashed modern songs to walk through the Wizard of Oz story. This was very unique and so fun to watch. Great reaction video. You are knocking it out of the park Mrs Jordan.

[@jenniferdoolittle6935]

I LOVED your reaction to this so much! I am a Pentaholic and it is so nice to see new fans appreciating their talent. Thank you SJ for choosing to react to this. Such a Fun Video, not to mention their phenomenal voices. I think too often people forget this is all acapella. True vocal awesomeness without Instruments! And Todrick Hall is amazing on his own.

[@MelaniePoparad]

Yes! My favorite PTX production. I just find it so fun and well done and Todrick makes a hell of an entrance. :) I agree with the invisibility over mind reading. I don’t want to know what every is thinking at all times. Ugh

[@tmstevens93]

I'd love to read people's minds so that I'll know exactly what they are going through and try to help as best as I can because in order for this world to be a better place we must understand where we all are coming from. Perspective is everything and once we can understand other perspectives even if you may not agree with it, only then can we start to move forward in harmony and make this world a better place so I'd love to read people's minds. Another awesome video my friend! All love❤

[@schmeevo1]

Lovin your reactions. Love PTX. now you need to see Black and White. Another Todrick/PTX collaboration really fun song. Keep on keepin on

[@cathyboyce9617]

This video IS absolutely amazing! Great reaction!

[@zoaryrafransoa5762]

Oh, I love your reaction. And I totally agree with you about the love that they have for each other and that just pop up in this video. Big big hug for this video reaction Schnell !

[@martycullison4095]

First, who knew you could tell the story of Oz in 7 minutes. Also Todrick Hall is awesome also. I think you would like his Black and White (With Kirstin, Mitch and BUTTER Scott) also, for one of his other originals is Wrong Bitch, Bitch (think of the wizard of Oz with DragQueens in NYC. Always love your reations. Hope to see more Toddy also., I think you will like him!

[@davidwiger6024]

Todrick Hall also did a cameo of Pentatonix called "Pentatodrix by Todrick Hall". Superfruit (Scott & Mitch) reacted to it in their "Reaction to Pentatodrix". Both are worth watching.

[@KitsyX]

Todrick is super talented... Sings, raps, writes, dances and does choreography, directs, acts... Like everything. He has a bunch of similar stuff to this (mashups/medleys of pop songs set to the plots of other films), other cool mashups/medleys... He also does fun parodies and his own original material. He has two cool visual albums that can be watched as movies too. One is kinda his life story mixed with the Wizard of Oz (one song, Black and White featuring 3 of Pentatonix, was featured on the deluxe version, I think), the other is an interesting commentary on race and homosexuality, set in a topsy turvy version of like 50's America with black homosexuals as the majority and the white and heterosexual people being the frowned upon minorities... It's a little on the nose in places, but it's still a great watch with some amazing music and fun comedy as well as the heart-breaking moments later on... They both have a load of cool and talented cameos/features too. Either way, I totally recommend watching a load more of his stuff.

[@xheralt]

Another awesome collab of theirs with Todrick was Superfruit (Scott+Mitch) + Kirstin "Black and White". An original song, not related to any other songs of that name.

[@aaronduncan3782]

Keep up the awesome reactions. Love the joy and positivity , it’s infectious..

[@dennisbryant3437]

I love this video, it has ALL the things.... :)

[@stillracer2514]

Oh I want to hear what people are thinking all the time! So read minds yes!

[@dougmore526]

Oh wow Schnell, this is an amazing video. I’ve seen it but love that you’re reacting to it. ❤️❤️❤️

[@SamoanBrasileiro]

Schell you looking super cute in this reaction 😍

[@russellfisher2853]

Love your energy, and enthusiasm, and your great personality in your reactions.

[@specialplaylists3230]

Another great mashup from PTX, fitting seamlessly all these songs into the story the are telling "on stage" And yes Todrick is a great "chameleonic" singer. One of my favorites from him is "Epic Beyoncé Lion King Mashup", which I strongly suggest you to check ;D See you in the next one

[@geriatricptxer2362]

Todrick Hall is a genius when it comes to designing videos, songs, etc. He has another song with Scott, Mitch and Kirstin titled "Black and White" that's great. He also does his own parody of their Daft Punk video that is hilarious. There's a Superfruit (Scott & Mitch) video of them watching Todrick's Daft Punk parody that's just as funny.

[@michaelengel2077]

One other person that reacted to this came up with the idea of PTX making an updated version of the whole movie....that would be Awesome!....but at the same time think of all the work that would have to be done for such a project!!

[@douglasclore6244]

I really did like your "buttertscott" nickname.

[@arwynOG]

Me too! Never heard that one before but it's so appropriate

[@gabrielmiller6047]

Haha me too! She’s my favorite reactor

[@musicdudley5559]

BUTTERSCOTT!!! Loved it haha..I hope someone tells Scott/somehow he finds out that this happened🤣😂

[@scottsaunder702]

omg I love butterscott epic you go girl love you

[@rizkifebriawan9438]

Me too, 😍

[@nickerpsg1]

I watched this again (it's so good), but I loved when each time one of the members began to sing (including Todrick) you had a mouth-dropping look...so cute. I may be out of place by saying this, but I think that Kirstie and you are both the two most naturally beautiful women on KZbin !!

[@jillianmyerly4517]

If you ever want to hear Avi quite literally blow out the speakers during a performance, plus a sort of "high vs. low, Mitch vs. Avi" voice battle, you have to check out their performance of Aha! Singapore at the Star Vista. Talk about amazing!

[@johnkillgo2327]

As you say ,, it may be a mash-up ,, but it makes sense. It tells you a 2 hour movie, in 10 minutes or less.

[@devinhunsecker6365]

I think I would choose being able to read minds assuming I am able to control when I am and am not doing so. That way I would be able to communicate with people who don't speak my language. Also, seeing as you enjoy A Capella music, I would like to recommend the group Citizen Queen. They are an all female group age 19-22 put together by Scott from PTX and a few others. They only have 12 songs/music videos out right now, but I know that they have original music in the works/coming soon. I recommend starting with No Tears Left to Cry followed by Evolution of Girl Groups and watch all the way to the end, because they show the names/ who's who.

[@Scrub_Jake]

Great reaction as always!! Yes please react to their new song “Be My Eyes” to see the evolution of Queen Kirstin 👑 Love the channel 💕

[@Jancoulson]

Love your PTX reactions.

[@LisaMT1218]

Todrick is brilliant, funny, and super creative. This was done in 2013. You must check him out. He has collaborated with PTX and Superfruit in other videos. I recommend his tongue in cheek Pentatodrix video, in which he does a hysterical parody of their Daft Punk video.

[@dtwolfe63]

Like you, reading minds is just TMI for 😆 lol

[@arielbarbosa7168]

I love your video

[@jamescurfman3284]

When I clicked on this, it said 7 views, 6 likes (including mine of course) and zero dislikes. That's a great start! Luv ya!

[@cb3806]

Look into Todrick, he went to the same high school that the trio did a few years earlier. He was also on American Idol, Broadway and has his own tours. If you have seen Pentatonix Daft Punk Todrick recreated it and u can see it on Superfruit.

[@PtxXtp]

He didn't go to the same high school. Just lived in the same town. He went to Bowie high school and the trio attended Martin high both in Arlington Texas. Plus todrick is 5-6 years is older and wouldn't have been in school with them anyway.

[@barrystrachan6340]

I rewound the video too...just so I could claim that I predicted you were going to call Scott Butter Scott...lol

[@ksl-diy7243]

Great video! I’d choose invisible ! PTX has done several videos with Todrick Hall. Check out Black and White. Both were produced and directed by Todrick.

[@waynerchris]

Todrick Hall is amazing. I'm a huge fan of his Straight Outta Oz stuff but all of his stuff is great

[@PtxXtp]

If you like Kirstie on Somewhere over the rainbow, pentatonix did a full different version of it years after this on their classics album. Kirstie has the lead again and the arrangement is beautiful. Unfortunately it doesn't have a video so it would have to be audio only. Or another Kirstie lead is their cover of Rather Be or their brand new original song Be My Eyes which she helped to write.

[@2miles2go1]

The dogs name is Toto and owned by Todrick.

[@danielsernajr4079]

Loved your reaction!!!

[@andyschnell58]

This video was great fun and loved the tribute to King Crimson (21st Century Schizoid Man). I don't want to know what others are thinking either so I chose being invisible. Can't wait to see where your next step on your Angelina Jordan journey takes you. So much ground to cover before her first album on Republic Records is released.

[@pedrozurzica6279]

That low note.. Man.. 😳

[@LeskeyC001]

Hey Schnell! Hope you are doing well. Here, for your enjoyment, is Kirstie singing “Somewhere over the rainbow” live: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJC8XpVobLmbZ8U. The whole song! She is a super-superstar! What a voice and all round acting ability too!

[@risperdude]

Ok you need to dive into Toddrick Hall. He is a Mashup and Creative Genius. An Unsigned Artist that was on the cover of Rolling Stone this summer. He really is amazing.

[@wolffang9158]

You definitely should react to more Voiceplay. They are amazing and kind of underrated. You will love them.

[@anniereboot2800]

Love your reactions! So fun to watch. I think you’d really love Superfruit’s cover of Katy Perry’s RISE. Superfruit is Scott and Mitch from PTX. They have great music collabs.

[@invecta18]

HI Schnell. It seems like Pentatinox cannot do anything that is just so so ? Everything they do, seems to be next level. I watched a reaction video of a reactor who I think is Irish and he listened to apparently his 3rd Pentatinox video and he commented, " Now your just showing off ". And he said that tongue in cheek to be funny as you are stunned at the amount of talent and time that must take come up with some of their creations. He was pretty blown away, as many of us are. A Capella has become sort of its own genera now and groups like Home Free and Pentatinox are sort of the gold standard. Ps. I remembered a comment you made in jest about "Home Free" asking " Where are these guys from". And I laughed just a little because their home is ( or was) Mankato , Minnesota. That is not the mecca of music by any means and to put in Canadian terms it is 793 miles due south of Winnipeg. lol Schnell we love you and thank you for putting up with us. With love from Florida

[@Skater08cooper]

I choose invisibility! But above that I would control time! I could stay up until 3 in the morning, then pause time for 11 hours and wake up at 4 for work with 12 hours of sleep! The only downside is that you are still aging during the time you pause, so I'd be like 65 by time I should be 50😂

[@patbrewer4205]

Invisible but you invisible would be a crime never hide your beauty

[@smitch1558]

If you want to sample Todrick on his own try "Eleven/Play" by Todrick Hall ft. Jade Novah (Jade Novah is amazing as well).

[@BloodTithingsGaming]

You should check out Kirstin singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow for the dog championships. It was epic.

[@cherylhowe1541]

Did you know Todrick to the same high school as Mitch, Kirstin and Scott? He's a bit older but I think that's astounding that 4 of them are from the same place in Texas. Todrick is a very talented producer and performer. He has been on Broadway as has Kirstin.

[@PtxXtp]

Not sure why people think that. Im assuming its just because they came from the same town. Todrick actually attended Bowie high school in Arlington. It somehow keeps spreading but isn't really true.

[@cherylhowe1541]

@@PtxXtp sorry, it's what I've read many times.

[@PtxXtp]

@@cherylhowe1541 I know I have too that's why I correct people when I see them tell reactors. It's a rumor that has spread throughout the fandom. Probably because they all knew each other and grew up in the same town before fame. Once someone assumed it and said it, many others followed and said it too. Todrick's high school can be found on the internet.

[@geriatricptxer2362]

PTX has a full version of Over the Rainbow on their Classics album. Kirsten really shines. Unfortunately no video, but the audio is definitely worth a listen.

[@Karen-Campos]

This one always takes reactors but surprise! I cant get over how well they picked the songs that retold the story so well! Mitch just shines too! The transition from Scott to Mitch with the “do you” was brilliant! And when Kirstin sings “you’re lying on the cold hard ground” to Avi who is a”lion on the ground” ....just so well played! Kirstin dreamt of being on Broadway (which she has now) so she was indeed spectacular! Is there anything PTX can’t do? Nope. Fantastic arranging & harmonizing as always! You might enjoy this clip from when Todrick, Kirstin, Scott & Mitch were ordering Starbucks in high school (pre-PTX)! kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4fZnah9hrWkodk

[@williamroop451]

I would choose invisible - I feel that I have had the most experience with that ability. Todrick Hall arranged this masterpiece and tapped his friends PTX to work with him. If you enjoyed it, I would strongly suggest checking out his channel. This is just a small taste of his arrangement ability. I would strongly suggest starting with "Spell Block Tango", then prepare for a rabbit hole at LEAST as deep as the Pentatonix and Home Free rabbit holes you already find yourself in.

[@jimyoung1011]

The more I think about having those super powers, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want either, because my "creepy side" might become to hard to control. Just kidding, invisibility.
