“Christmas in Our Hearts” has become the Yuletide anthem for Filipinos. This was on the PTX 2022 album Holiday Around the World. They partnered with artists like Lea Salonga for songs that represented their nationalities.

I love Pentatonix as much for who they are, as how they perform. They seem like such incredibly happy, positive, and generous people. They post frequent Tik Toks, behind the scenes clips, fun shorts. They share their lives with their fans - and it's family friendly - not that they don't drop profanity now and then, but they don't excessively sexualize their performances or song choices. We have literally watched them grow from teenagers to adult, watching as they improve and change. It's not just the music, it's feeling part of a larger community of fans. They never disappoint.

I appreciated your comments about Lea’s voice. Yes, most people react to and remember Lea’s performances of “On My Own” or her Disney Princess songs from the 90s, but she still sounds amazing. You can listen to her at any age - you’ll be blown away.

You should react to Lea’s Miss Saigon Audition next. That’ll blow your mind away!

I think you will immensely enjoy their new version of “Oh Holy Night”, which they recently released with a video. I highly recommend it!

The colors come from the album cover of this release, Holidays Around The World.

Ah thank you so much! Really good to know :) This kind of information is hard to find!

I love, love, LOVE this video & song! Thank you for reacting to it! 💞 This is from the album they're currently nominated for their FIFTH Grammy Award for! 😊 You know, i cannot help but smile when I see Matt smiling! His smile just melts my soul! 💕

Great reaction! Have never heard this song before. It's now going to be a staple in my Christmas playlist!

The flag of the Philippines does include gold star imagery: It has three golden stars, standing for the three main areas in the Philippines-the Luzon group of islands in the north, the Visayan group in the south, and the main southern island of Mindanao.

But I don't think that's the reason for their outfit.

@athenstar10 Agreed. I honestly think it's just aesthetics.

Those are just Christmas lights, aren't they?

Most of the recording was done separately but Lea was in LA and Scott got to sing with her in the studio the last verse. He was thrilled to be able to sing with her and thought she was amazingly down to earth.

Lea also asked for permission to touch Kirstin's pregnant tummy and did so. Kirstin told the story in a very cute way.

Although the Philippine flag has yellow stars, I think the gold twinkle lights (echoed by the gold in their outfits) refer to stars, which is the traditional design of Philippine Christmas lanterns, called "parol" (pah-ROLL).

Love this! I also wish Lea could sing with Pentatonix again.

Lea Salonga's She used to be mine is my favorite version of this song. Someone posted an audio here on youtube.

This is a beautiful song PTX is always played at home all year round but especially at Christmas time and my mum and daughter love them even took my daughter to see them when they toured Australia last march.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and insights for Pentatonix. I can’t wait to listen to your reactions and hear your thoughts. Subbed for more of PTX ❤

Sondheim's old friends sitzprobe, It was realy wonderful when they did it in the Westend and soon will open it on broadway with headliners Bernadette Peters and Lea Salonga along with other Westend stars but I'm not sure if who will be the other casts fro the broadway production. They only announced Bernadette and Lea.

Darn Nick, today is the start of Spring or End of Winter, yet you make me listen to this Christmasy song which is one of Filipinos holiday anthems, it is making my day brighter. SO popular that when BER months come, tons of Jose Mari Chan memes on social media. Thanks for reviewing Lea's performance and I am learning those music lingo --- keep it coming. I love you video reactions. When this album came out a lil over a year ago, it was on repeat! To answer your question, our flag is not related to those background visuals (Philippine flag has red, white, boue and yellow. You might be correct, those represents stars or lantern or parol (which is staple in Philippine decors on holiday). All the best, Nick!

thank you for video. also youre very handsome, sir

Proud Filipino here. Try to react also to some filipino singers like Morissette Amon, Katrina Velarde, Charice Pempengco, and Regine Velasquez...

A Filipino singer/songwriter wrote and sang this song. He wanted to sing it with Lea Salonga, but Lea couldn't because of her contract.

I also prefer a clear, clean, bright, open sound and that is why I LOVE LEA SALONGA SO VERY MUCH! She's the epitome of what I want vocally! Pls react more to her songs from her 54 Below residency, they're all on KZread. Pls I really want to hear what you think! It might be her best acoustic album/performances.

I just finished watching your reaction of Whitney and the star spangled banner. I wanted to leave a comment but I don't know if you go back and read your comments so I'm leaving it on your most recent videoIt happens to be about Pentatonix pentatonics. This past years college series Pentatonix saying the national anthem....... Many people are saying that it is as good as Whitney's performance. I don't know if you know this but Whitney's mother Cissy Was a backup singer for Elvis. She also was a backup singer for mahalia Jackson and Aretha Franklin. Please do react to Pentatonix Rendition of the star spangled banner.

Hi m8, if you like cool vocals you might enjoy reacting to "Jinjer - Pisces (live session)". It's a Ukrainian band whose female lead singer has the voice of an actual angel 😍

A little fun fact...Kirstin was some 6 or more months pregnant at filming this. Probably one of the reasons they didn't show the ladies in anything but head shots.

She had some body shots in MV of Last Christmas filmed probably the same time, and it's somewhat noticeable
