Scott has sooo much r&b in his voice. Shawn from Boyz to Men kept calling him a beast.....

I love Shawn so much. He was an incredible judge and he has a vast and varied taste in music. I read an article once about him living a somewhat obscure indie band I am a huge fan of - dismemberment plan and I was floored and fell in love 😍

This song brings the epic PTX wall of sound there in the middle!!! You’re right, their bell tones are exquisite!

You totally GOT it!!! They WERE singing for all of humankind. You are a true Pentaholic now, and there is no cure! No rehab! You haven't been brainwashed - you've been EARWASHED!

That magic when they all sing? That immensely difficult, moving, harmony of beautiful sound? That is what we call PTX’s Wall Of Sound. Also- their labels are beautiful. They are each beautiful in their individuality (I believe Kirstie is also of native American decent). But their visual of how the individuals also make up humanity makes me want to be a better human.

The difficult part is called a wall of sound. Kirstin, Mitch, and Scott grew up together since they were 10 years old and are all 3 self professed choir needs and they were in musical theater. Kevin was classically trained on the cello and saxophone and played the saxophone at Carnegie Hall when he was 17. That is huge honor. Avi was trained for opera. The thing you might have missed about the cards is whatever word they passed to the next person was what they had in common but great catch on the human thing before the end.

If you want to hear Scott 9the tall blonde guy) at his super soulful best, check out their performance of Let's Get it On from The Sing Off. Make sure you watch the whole thing so you can catch the reaction from Boyz II Men's Shawn Stockman. He was one of the judges on The Sing Off and a huge fan of Scott's.

Hard to take that song to another level than the original but they certainly did. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.

Great reaction my guy, please more Pentatonix. My personal favorite is “ Can you feel the love tonight “! I think you’ll love it. This Pentaholic would appreciate it so much.💕💕🎶🎶🦋

Yes...their "bell tones" are their "signature". This was Scott's first real "coming out" in public. Avi, being trained in opera, was a perfectionist. You said they had perfect harmony. Avi (the bass) was always insistent they do it perfectly. They can't hide behind instruments. Scott's favorite music is R & B. Kirstie, Scott, and Mitch were in every choir they could be in while they were in high school at the same school. Those three started their singing journey when they were in elementary school. Thank you for your PTX reaction. I look forward to more.

Now being in his position, telling the WORLD? Idk how he was able to, except for maybe having 4 friends that are close as family, 2 of which have known him since elementary school. So much respect for him on that.

@@Delcattiy I didn’t know that the first time I saw this, but you can kind of see it in his expression and body language when he takes the card.

Scott is known as the King Rifter for a reason. :) There are plenty of compilations on youtube of "Scott Hoying riffs and runs" - you should react to some of those :)

Thank you. I appreciate your amazing comments. This group is amazing

I really appreciate the video they did for this one♥️ and of course, you’re reaction 😎

I love how much their amazing harmonies, and overall talent, just blow your mind. Why? Because I relate. I've never been a singer (other than the car and hanging out with friends), but my years in band (concert and marching) and orchestra fostered a love of music theory. I'm not classically trained in theory, but seem to have an innate understanding of it. Pentatonix blows me away. Their understanding of what works, in sound and arrangement, is just ridiculous. That, in combination with their amazing vocal talent, makes them one of the most enjoyable groups to listen to...period. Love your reactions! Stay healthy and keep safe. And have a great day! :)

Thanks for continuing to react to PTX. So often, listening to just one song doesn’t show their full talent. But the more you hear/see, the depth and breath of their talent shows through. Thanks again.

This video gives me goosebumps every time. And yes, from someone familiar with a cappella music, those harmonies seem impossible.

I am just a snow white woman and I am happy with that. God made us ALL. We all have a mission in life. I was a math teacher, I hope I helped to make math not so evil to my wonderful students. God Bless You, Van, and your family also. I totally enjoy your show and love the way you bring people together.

Bruh!! Love the reaction. Comments already said his name Scott. Want more soul, Please check out Scott Hoying and Mario Jose cover of Lost on You. It will blow your mind!

I just love how they put their spin on this song, absolutely beautiful. This makes my mind and heart cry, because I wish "everyone" would see people with the heart and not the eyes. The heart conveys what the eyes see, and if there is love and acceptance, then there is peace and happiness filled with love for one another.

Scott looks like Peter/Star Lord from the new Guardians Of The Galaxy game.

By JohnLennon- including that triplet you love in it. ☺️

" We represent human beings all over the world" AMEN! I sang first soprano in Acapella choir and I get how hard it is. I believe they all have perfect pitch too. I am so in love with Pentatonix!

"Nothing to kill or die for". It would be a nice start

Just as many chills when they do this live.

Mr LFR... You reaction was over the top. It is hard to understand that only five people can make a song sound like they had a band behind them... Even the percussions are made by them... Good grief... And the harmonies are out of this world for sure.

Thank you for your reaction! This one always makes me cry.

Kirstie Mitch and Scott were in choir in HS and Kevin was a church boy and Avi is an opera singer. They get it.

PTX just broke another reactor! In less than a minute. PTX is famous for their wall of sound.

I love how these Acapella groups have made you fall in love with voice again! You may deny it... But it shows 😁 I'd love to see you react to Home Free doing Love Train 💜💜💜 P.S. Do it! Go ahead and start your own vocal group... You know your heart wants to!

check out their Sing off performances to see how they started and developed to what they are today

thank you

The first soloist is Avi (the original bass). The second soloist is Scott (the baritone). The third soloist is Mitch (a tenor). The fourth soloist is Kirstin (the mezzo soprano). The fifth soloist is Kevin (the beatboxer, cellist and a tenor).

Love this reaction! I was always under the impression that the “bell tones” were the classic a cappella tool used to emulate rhythm, absent a rhythm section. I guess Lennon, in the original Imagine, used the right hand piano chords to push the tempo. Beautiful cover.

Most hominids would not consider what I do "singing", and I don't recall ever being invited to a choir. However, I still have a Great Appreciation for their Talent! Peace, Love!

The visual demonstrates that these individuals can live and perform in HARMONY.

Key word... diversity..... we all love each other.. we are ALL HUMAN ❤

Scott, Mitch and Kirstie met in high school choir. Avi is a classically trained basso profundo (the lowest and rarest male voice type)… So yeah. They’ve had a lot of choir/group practice over the years. Lol

Oh, and Van…..Scott Hoying is the “sauce master”. LOL 😂

HUMAN ❤️

Hello LFR....I have written to you before and this time I really had to respond to your reaction. I have watched this video with other reactors and you are the first I have seen to REALY understand what it was all about when they were passing the writing on those cardboards. You even mentioned before they were done that we are ALL human....right on Bro....I am a French Canadian from Ottawa, Canada. I totally respect your reaction. Many of the friends that I have had were from the LGBTQ + but, being 71, back then it was just called being "gay", anyway, I am a straight woman but have never had any qualms about someone's identity. I have always been open and free to all. Thank you for your diverse reaction. I am now a terminally ill woman and watching good reactions means a lot to me. Take care LFR and keep on doing what you do. Carole 👍👍😘

Their music gives me serious chill bumps

They have an amazing conductor, or whatever you call the person who directs.

This message is even deeper then many get... they show the connection to each other, after identifying their individuality... then end at the ultimate truth...we are 1

Loved your reaction. (Cracking up & remembering church bell choir. 😂) No words for the feeling when their harmony just gels.

Okay... they deserve compliments every step of the way :-) how can you not!

Everyone should compliment people all the time.....we need more kindness and positivity now a days Seriously

Thank you! Everyone talks about the beauty of their sound, but as a 73 year old choir junkee, I LOVE that you talk about how difficult it is to sing like this. From HS varsity choir, through college, and after years of singing, they still amaze me. If you don't listen to them with headphones, you miss so much.....and if you have NO experience with singing, you miss even more. As individuals, they are miraculous. Together, they are a force of nature.

thank you for a great reaction

The words they write in the video, its that where they put things they are insecure about, or struggle with, something they dont like.. that kind if thing.. something theyre proud of..

I absolutely love your reactions ❤️ you have a wealth of knowledge and experience that you share with us in such a beautiful, positive way. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. You made my day brighter.

This song is BEAUTIFUL!

Loved your take on this! They are so diverse but in the end we are all human beings! Beautiful reaction!,💕💕

I like the way you summed up the message of the video. I am a singer (though certainly not on their level) and I love this message that people can be different but come together to make something so beautiful. The members of Pentatonix are also very different in their musical tastes, but the fact that they are still together after more than 10 years with only one change shows how much they appreciate what they can do together.

To hear Scott really riff watch their journey on THE SING OFF. It's been so long since I've seen it I can't remember the specific songs but he goes off. Even if you don't react to it it's well worth your time. They just met Avi and Kevin the week they auditioned and it is amazing how they clicked and how good they were LIVE from the git-go. My favorite one was Dog Days Are Over. I think that was the last week. They were definately in it to win it!

Yes! this video represents ALL of the world!! TY for recognizing that!

Not only is perfect harmony is perfect sound leveled, and sound expansion and expression… making intervals (sound space full of sound vibration which makes the color of their harmonies absolutely beautiful, filled of so much texture with misfires of vibrant and shod color in the different sounds they emit in the musical journey they mapped, and every transition the technic they use for each change to continue taking the listener in the at journey is like incredibly perfect! They are that Voice in many forms or colors and levels of sounds.., GIFTED!

And then they bring it home On VOICE

My mom used to have a record on Roger Whittaker sang John Lennon's song of " imagine," also .

The best chimes are in NEW RULES! It’s unbelievable!

They are the best vocalists in this world. Avi left and I am so sad, He didn't like touring. they are all still friends.

Son, I find you cute as heck, my mother is from Ghana and worship is a religion. Christmas is a day in church where singing is much of the day. Music and dance are a mainstay of culture, som6ou know how hard and special these kind of voices are....God given and approved!

You called it.

Dear LFR, I don't think, that there is any meat-riding in complementing Pentatonix. I'm absolutely happy with your comments and analysis. Thank you for your reactions, I highly appreciate them. Cheers from Switzerland, Leo

we call that the Pentatonix wall of sound .. once you hear it . .you are not the same ... same with Nightwish .. they are the same way .. enjoy your reactions ..

I"m a 68 year old white woman and I Love you so much with your reactions . Please react to them singing Creep from the Masked Singer .You wont be disappointed.

You should react to Pentatonix singing Bohemian Rhapsody. They don’t miss a beat!

Man, the ending gets me crying every time!

Van, I love your sense of humour! :) Your knowledge of music, your self deprecation, and of course your appreciation of PTX. Altogether a pleasure to hear your reactions. Thanks!

Scott's favorite music is R&B. And thanks for your reaction.

It's called High School choir. I just love watching you, it seems like I always come back to you. I'll go off watching other people and the next thing I know I've got you on there again. I just love watching you do reaction thank you.

Scott .....soulful voice for sure 🔥

They bring me light and hope and joy. To those who try to divide us this is a reminder that we need to love and respect each other . They live it everyday

They could sing the names out of a phone book and it would be WONDERFUL😊

Avi is the 3rd tallest member, but the video makes him look like the shortest!! The tall blonde is Scott, the lead singer most of the time, and founder of the group!

Scott has that soulful voice

Yep, Scott has that blue-eyed soul, doesn't he?

They are super heroes............

around 7:52 they are doing what they call their Wall Of Sound. its absolutely beautiful !

❣️❣️❣️your personality & reactions, bro💯🔥🙏🇺🇸

I didn't hear the John Lennon one due to life and family. I knew he wrote it but the PTX did the BEST message and soulful-restfullest version I have ever heard.

Ah you can’t worry about these kids’ & their way of thinking 😂 Our generation isn’t afraid to say what we think. He’ll get there! In time!

Wowwww!!! Absolutely love this!!! Outstanding!

I just found your channel tonight and have really enjoyed your reactions to Pentatonix. I'm only about 2.5 minutes into this one, but you mention the Christmas bell sounds. I think you should REALLY check out their Carol of the Bells song!

If you like Scott's runs, you should check out the 10th song of the sing off ,. Marvin Gaye " Let's get it on" . Each one shinned. It was in 2011 and they won the sing off and got their start. You will feel like a proud papa because they were sssooo young but GREAT! Heck, check out all 12 of the songs .

Thank you for this reaction, I highly appreciate it! Cheers from Switzerland, Leo

You are the BEST! Thank you for reviewing this. I even enjoy JoJo's reviews, too, even if he is not as knowledgeable as you. You are all talented and charismatic! Thank you.

I’m having a reaction video day (just checked the time….and yes it’s been hours) catching up with you because it’s so fun and I love your views! But I’m popping into the last thing you posted to ask a question about the last thing I just viewed and I’m dying to know! Did you ever watch O Brother Where Art Thou? (Soggy Bottom Boys) Also….that poor Puerto Rican kid was sooo lost! And do more Duran Duran! LOL Thank You for helping me relax and laugh on my day off! And Great video for me to jump into to catch up with you! One of my favorites!!

Since Avi is gone I wish they would re-do some of their songs with Matt. You know they started out on on KZread with only their only help was their own. They are extraordinarily intelligent. If you like their covers, go watch Superfruit with Scott and Mitch. It is a little different side of them. They sing, do skits and all kinds of things. Sometimes the others are with them. Each one of them has things going on. That is always in their contract. I seen one solo act with Kevin... He is a prodigy. That man has so much more talent in the tip of his pinky than most people could try to achieve in their whole lifetime. Go check them all out.

Thank you so much for the wonderful reaction.

The thought of when they started out with the Sing Off of how well they had done, It is Amazing that they hadn't come together until just a few days before they had to perform. Kevin and Avi not really even done anything with the group. They had just been picked to sing with them because they needed five people. When they sing that first song on The Sing-Off they blew their own minds. They came Out Swinging and found that they had assembled all the right people. They could not have done any better with any other individuals at that time of their life. They had struck gold in the middle of nowhere. It was as if they had been with each other all their life.

Great reaction. Thank you. They are incredible. The message is still as important today as it was all those years ago.

The look on your face when Avi's voice went up was priceless!

I'm biased (favorite song) but.... this is the best Pentatonix ever

I saw them on sing off for a little bit I didn't get to see much of it but then didn't hear no more about them until 3 days ago I been going back and forth between them home free and Voiceplay for the last 3 days found out that Pentatonix made it through the whole show and found out about the other 2 groups on the same day I love all 3 groups it would be cool if they would all come together for a song at least once

Pentatonix, members past & present, are amazing HUMAN BEINGS first & foremost. THAT is why they bring such joy to those who are blessed to be introduced to them through their gifts & talents. They truly represent so many & so much & they know that, & are humble & kind. I feel like we all need PTX in our lives!

Jo Jo is a good kid. He has a good head on his shoulders, not all people get that. I'm sure you know that, but my nephew was raised Mom and Dad in tact, they had a great dealof money, He was taken to church and after all of that he went to college and over dosed right after he got out of rehab. He never really knew what hit him. My neice has never really recovered. the whole family has been torn apart. Money means nothing. His sister will not have children because she says she wouldn't be a good mother. Be proud of Jo Jo I'm sure he thinks your great. You have been there for him.

Another ST8 BADAZZERY of a Reaction.... All love Bro

I love the reaction! I miss your country reactions though. You should react to Rock That Says My Name by the Steel Woods! I think you’ll enjoy it!

Avi came from my home town and we had the same HS choir instructor! I love his bass - gives me chills

LMAOOOO You killed me at 5:38 you are sooooo clever and funny. I'm having a blast for the last couple of days watching your videos. You are special, brother.

This is so beautiful and almost unearthly.
