Check out all Pentatonix reactions 😊 : kzread.info/head/PLBxxPN1NmvZoPKFKQuvAwVd2a0xTQ7UZq

THIS is how this song was meant to be sung: with unbridled joy!

I don't think I have ever seen a reactor who enjoyed the music as much as you do! I love to see how absorbed you get in the intricacies of the music. Hey, you got more than your money's worth. Oh, wait, you didn't pay. God bless the Internet! ; - D

@@QofyReacts Avi &Kevin shared an apartment and worked their butts off to hone their skills...their transitions are brilliant....loved your analysis

This USED to be a calm carole, now it's a joy filled praise song!

This is the way O Come All Ye Faithful should ALWAYS be sung!

I'm glad you did this one. As you saw, it is a lot of fun! It does have an African beat to it. I don't know this for a fact but my theory is that Kevin was involved in that. His father was born in Nigeria. (Ask Kevin what his favorite food is and he'll start talking about Nigeria dishes.) They have done collaborations with many different singers. My favorite is "The Wizard of Ahhs" with Todrick Hall. Scott, Kirstin, and Mitch knew Todrick before Pentatonix existed. Did you notice that Scott gave Mitch "the look" during his solo at the end? Watch Scott when Mitch sings "O come let us adore him". Scott has been know to miss his cue to start singing because he is too engrossed in Mitch's solo. As for another Christmas song, I recommend "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen". They put a different spin on that too.

Haha I noticed the look but didn’t make anything of it And I meant collabs with groups not solo artists I have already done the wizard of ahhs

So many Christmas songs sound like funeral songs! For songs that are supposed to be about joy, they sound dark and depressing. This version of the song puts the JOY back in joyful! Great song and great reaction!

Love this song too, the African flavor was brilliant and your reaction is priceless...love from Darwin Australia

I was afraid you weren’t going to react because you did the other group’s version. PTX are just so inventive. This is a nod to Kevin’s Nigerian roots. It is spectacular!!

It is unique

Kevin is relentless! Imagine not just being able to hold down a beat like that, but to keep it going for so long and not miss a beat. I mean they are all amazing, but to me, K.O. is the actual alien 🤯 The choir was really good too and I loved your reaction to this. Keep it up bro ❤

Seeeee I told you it's amazing. They "pentatonixed" it. You want this song to be sung like this by everyone from now on. At least I compare it to every other version that's one reason why I said I prefer this version over Voctave. It has such a great vibe to it. You have to dance and be happy. Try "Joy to the world" next. Avi is great there too.

I love your joy and reaction to this! I also love when they changed the key and you were like "wait...How are they doing that?"

Love this so much, and like you said, the choir takes it to another level!

Your joy and enthusiasm is infectious! I love it when the reactor is as entertaining as the song! I've had 'coffee highs' before, but this is my first 'QoFy high'! 😎👍

It's like lion king matching to O come all ye faithful, which is why they all of a sudden bring in a choir because that's what the song is singing, O come all ye faithful and the choir comes in on cue

I've tried, many times, to get through that key change without getting chills. I have failed, every single time.

Avi and Kevin formed a great rhythm section, they sync together SO well. Like a good drummer and bass player will lock in together.

My choir did this arrangement 2 years ago! It was an absolute bugger to learn, but so much fun once we had it. Of course, it took 60 of us to sound as good as Pentatonix does it with 5 people! Also, if I recall correctly (I don't have the score handy or I'd look) you are correct about the sopranos leading the key modulation, then the bass, then the tenors and altos jumping to the new key.

Aww thank you

I've been obsessed with African music since the 80s when I first heard King Sunny Ade then Osibisa, Miriam Makeba, Hugh Masekela and on and on through to the present. Pentatonix got the authentic elements so right. I'm so proud of them for doing it justice. The Voctave version of this song is staggering and I can only imagine its effect on someone who is religious, which I'm not, but of course I am going to prefer this version. You want joyful and triumphant? Listen to this.

Keep your eyes open in case Pentatonix releases a video of "Once Upon A December" from their latest Christmas album. The backing choir is Voctave.

Kirstie’s voice was beautiful, Avi’s bass drop near the end of the song was the bomb, Scott was great as usual, and Kevin’s insane beatboxing and energy was killer.

What a joyfull reaction again , you always make my day with your positive energy😄! I knew you would love this one , partly because it's in a church 😉 . I love the African vibe in this one and the choir gives it such a special vibe , gives me goosbumps everytime when they come in ! That doesn't mean it's better than Voctave's , just different and awesome in it's own way ! "Joy To The World "has the same happy vibe ( and is in a church , without a choir) )

You cannot help BUT smile & bop along with this one. African music just makes you feel so happy. And I'm totally with you on the Lion King/Wakanda vibe to it. It also makes me think of the group, Boney M. Rivers of Babylon sound deffo there. 🙌 I love how happy PTX is here. You can tell they are genuinely having so much fun.

Hey QoFy 👋! This one gives me so many goosebumps every single time I hear it, and I’m not even religious, I’m agnostic, but it gives you so many feels, huh? Their version of Joy To The World is also amazing. And God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. And when I hear the latter one I have to then go and hear Peter Hollens with The Hound + The Fox singing God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. But there’s just far too many acapella Christmas songs to pick from, I’m sure you’ll agree 😉
