Kevin's homage to his Nigerian father and Grenadian mother.

I've watched this music video probably one hundred times, for over 2 years and that moment at 6:31 where the choir turns and their voices swell takes my breath away Every. Single. Time. No matter how much I brace myself for it.

The first line says it all Joyful and Triumphant!!!

This quickly became my favorite arrangement of this song. They took it from something kind of dry to a celebration. That makes more sense to me.

I've listened to O Come All Ye Faithful so many times, I didn't bother counting. I love this song so much, I dance to it.

This is still my favorite ptx song. Imagine is up there as is silent night and prayers for this world, but this still my #1. I'm an athiest but ptx has me loving Christmas and religious music. Not as a believer, but just as someone who appreciates the music.

Love the African vibes, and then they took us to church.

LOVE this rendition! Kevin told them that in the church where his parents worship they think they should be able to dance to holy music. He's right; Christmas songs are supposed to be a celebration; why shouldn't they make people want to dance?

This is why PTX owns Christmas songs. Christmas is religious and so are Christmas songs or carols. PTX always respects that while making music anyone can enjoy. This amazingly diverse group spreading joy for all is humanity at its best.

I love the positive, uplifting, cheerful, and upbeat spin on a Christmas song.

The best version of that carol EVER made!

For sure!!!

This is the best version of this song. They totally flipped it on it's head.

You never want their songs to end

This is by far my favorite version of this song. How can you not get excited and happy listening to this?

You’ve never seen this??!! Omg this is my favorite of theirs!! 😆👏🏾🙌🏾🎉🎄❤️

Most joyous version EVER!!! Love this. Never hear this song the same again!! Added; They just dropped their video for "Kiss from A Rose", it is stunning!!!!!

yes!! I love this song and Pentatonix version!! I've said to many people that Pentatonix are the only ones I've seen to make a traditionally slowly sung song into a dance number!! :)

This version of the song fills my heart with pure, undiluted joy. I can't listen without the biggest smile spreading across my face, and by the time the choir joins in I'm on the verge of happy-tears. Whenever my Christmas spirit fades, I just give this a listen and all the good feelings of the season spring right back to life.

I love how people come on reaction channels and try to tell them to not pause so much or ask people to subscribe at the beginning of the video. It's a REACTION channel LOL! On a side note Avi is releasing a new song & video TOMORROW!!!!!! It's called Healing and it's absolutely amazing!

Avi's bass was sooooo good on this song. Him and Kevin was on fire

Can't believe you haven't heard this before..... I can't hear it the traditional way in my head anymore.

Thanks for your reaction to Kevin's arraignment in honor of his parents. It is older but so good. I request it for new reactors and Pentaholics that missed the first 7 years. Baby Pentatonix's with childhood memories are in "That's Christmas to Me" with each member (2 photos) as kids.

I cry every time I hear "That's Christmas to Me." I just love its purity.

One of my favorite songs they do! This is definitely making me want to listen to their Christmas albums starting now! Our house usually waits until after Thanksgiving! My son LOVES their 12 Days of Christmas version. We listen to it on loop during the holiday season.

The choir is singing more of the song when Pentatonix is repeating, "Oh come all ye faithful!" I've listened to this song by Pentatonix a zillion times! I LOVE IT!! It's sung as a celebration song of Christ's birth, which is a celebration! Thank you!!❤

The greatest rendition of that song I have ever heard. PTX killed it.

You’re right if you don’t feel something your soul is dead, our whole church would be hopping and dancing if that happened at our church

Makes you want to get up and DANCE!

Love this song

This is how church songs should be sung as a joyful honor to God!

That is by far one of my all time favorites of theirs.

This far and away my favorite PTX Christmas song. Just cheers me up every time I hear it. Great reaction!

I love this one, too. I can never hear it too many times. Thank you, Kevin, for all the work you did honoring your heritage.

So glad you didn't take that sip of coffee! That was the best double take I've seen from an experienced reactor in a long time.😂

So young and beautiful. They are still great, but I love their youthful, joyous early music. And Kevin! He is relentless--how can he keep it up?

I was so excited to see your reaction when I found you were doing this one!!!! THIS is the toppest of top tier renditions I have ever heard and will forever be my favorite. I had to laugh when you paused and said something like, this could be "chruchy", then the choir came in! LOL Such a stellar reaction! You're not wrong when you said that this song just brings out the dance in you. Kevin and his family's ties to Africa inspired this and it's a huge winner! You got soul sir. Thank you so much! I got emotional when seeing you experience this. Wonderful!

OMG... THANK YOU!!! I'm the one that said I'd looked through your playlist and hadn't seen you react to this one before. Thank You for commenting on that btw. I just KNEW you would LOVE this version of this song. I fell in love with PTX's version of this. This is definitely now one of my favorite Christmas songs. I so wanted to see you react to this after I came across it. Thank You so much for doing this one! Truly appreciate it.

JUST BEAUTIFUL ❤

Dennis!! How have you not listened to this banger before now?! 😂 This ekes by "Mary Did You Know?" as my favorite Pentatonix Christmas song. The arrangement is fantastic, the visuals are great, the choir takes it to the next level....and it's just SO MUCH FUN!!! 😊

Even after all these years Avi's bass vocals just vibrates though my body. When he left PTX I left PTX. Loved his early stuff but I've not heard much of him lately.

The most joyous!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for reacting to PTX's version of Oh Come All Ye Faithful! It is such a joyous interpertation!

Absolutely brilliant!!

“Kinda sounds churchy.” /sips tea waiting for the choir to march in

My favorite Pentatonix song is the one I heard most recently, but this one runs a close second. Can't help but dance to this one in November or July or whenever! Great reaction!

Your comment about not being able to sip your coffee because you might spit it out because of PTX awesomeness...fair. TOTALLY fair! LOL!

What a GREAT reaction!!!

Love this! Thanks for the reaction!

The arrangement is West African Traditional, which makes sense, with Kevin's father being from Nigeria.

Growing up, this was not one of my favorites but the way Pentatonix does it now it’s one of my favorites

New subscriber here for PTX. Pentaholic from the beginning. 😊I see I’m a little late to the party with you. Gonna go back and do a bit of binging. 😂 love your reaction. One more thing. I know we sucked in the post season, but WE GOT FREDDY!! Yes diehard DODGER FAN. Please don’t hold it against me. I agree with you, if you weren’t moving to this there is DEFINITELY something wrong with you. 🤭

I wept with Joy when this version I only come across this morning, I’ve got to do a reaction to a reaction to the reactions, I’ll isolate your little solo there, and put it into my DJ system and add you into the music and visuals and really do a remix for Christiamas

I was not a fan of this song as a kid. I LOVE PTX version. ❤❤❤❤❤ Great reaction. There is always something new/different with them with every song they do.

Wait for it...

This is the only version of O Come All Ye Faithful for me, forever!

I think people say not to say the marketing stuff in the beginning because if it's a new viewer, it's like "Why would I do all that when I haven't even seen the video yet?" lol Personally, I wait until the middle and end of my videos, but that's just me!

# lets go

Absolutely love Avi in this and pretty much everything he does. When he left PTX, so did I. He added a strength, and a deep, dark chocolate no one else can match. Are there good basses out there? Yes, but no one can give what Avi can.

Im just finding this. Have you reacted to Mary, Did you know by Pentatonix?

New favorite version?

Whilst I love the original arrangement this should absolutely be the mainstream version moving forward

Voctave’s version of this song puts this version to shame. Voctave destroys this song and will bring tears to your eyes. ❤

I still like this version with the tribal flare but Voctave’s version is my favorite.

Last I heard Bethlehem wasn't in Jamaica man. Great vocals, but IMHO they're for the wrong song.

You say it in the beginning because you feel entitled to all that. I find it disrespectful. I like your reactions. But I don’t subscribe because of your entitled behavior. I know that’s the world we live in. But doesn’t mean it’s right. Why are you telling me to like something I haven’t experienced yet?

Before I make my comment, let me preface it by saying I am a huge Pentaholic. However, this version just isn't something I appreciate. It's way too "jazzed up". To me, this totally detracts from the song and its message. Sorry, Pentatonix, I love you, but this doesn't hold a candle to Voctave's version of "O Come All Ye Faithful" (which is "faithful" to the spirit of the original song).
