There is no way PTX did not make a deliberate choice with that harmony. Like it or not, they always make changes from the originals when they cover. Kevin DOES have perfect pitch, so if it was an unintentional mistake, he would hear it.

Agreed It wasn't a mistake it was a choice that they made and to be honest I like it better then the original..

Maybe that's just my opinion, but I think the harmony PTX does sounds so much better than the original. It creates a really nice dissonance and just adds to the feeling of the song. Also this is not the first time that they made changes to the original and with their talent, success and how detail-oriented their arrangements are, there is very little chance, that this was not a conscious choice.

Ditto .... If its not mathematically correct its wrong? Not so! PTX does it best.

Seriously, they can sing it however they want. It is a COVER , THEIR INTERPRETATION, it does not need to be as originally arranged. They were PERFECT AS ALWAYS.

I'm a bit baffled as to why this should be a perfect copy of Celine's version. I love what they're doing and find it really satisfying. I understand this is a cover, but PTX are famed for doing things their way. They take things and make it their own. This is so delightful.

I think it might actually be a conscious choice to go to the F chord early since Mitch goes to a G note before going down to F (when you expect the F chord). This creates the F/G dissonance and puts Mitch in extra focus rather than just have his note be part of the would be already existing major triad of the E flat. If you listen closely to the end of the "second" F chord they also do slight variations for it to not just be two F chords after each other. I don't know - I like it! (Excuse my very rusty attempted music theory)

As a reactor, and especially a trained musician like yourself, I find it interesting that you’ve noticed a variation in the PTX cover as compared to the original. But when your comments imply they’ve made a mistake, that is something altogether different. Not sure why you think it has to be identical to the original. Shouldn’t they be allowed some artistic freedom in the decisions they make? More often than not their covers improve upon the original IMO.

Why does it have to be her harmony..they are making it their own. This is by far the best version of this song. Grammy worthy.

PTX is not the ones who block the videos. It's the record label. PTX actually fights with the label on blocking. They want people to react.

Pentatonix never does a cover like anyone else and the changes they make in the arrangements are perfection. They didn't make a mistake just because they may have done it differently than Celine. They did it their way...intentionally.

It was ok but the original is better. Dont get me wrong I love these guys but dont get your panties in a knot.

What I've been saying since I first heard it was this is a vocally-mature PTX. They are now at or near 30 and entering their vocal prime. Their voices are now really settled in and they can do almost anything they want. Scott's opening with the chest voice is something we haven't heard from him and it was epic. Mitch almost reminds me of a great coloratura soprano as he easily tosses off those flourishes. It looks so easy for him, like he isn't even working at it. Kirstie is belting at incredibly high notes. And Matt and Kevin and providing the depth that is needed. I think with the maturity, we are now entering a new phase where we'll get performances like this. They've said this was the hardest arrangement they've ever done. They have more ahead. You know what a mature voice can do that a younger voice can't. So you can imagine where they go from here. I can't wait. Great Reaction Maggie.

@@jspres86 I fail to see anything 'learned' from deciding an intentional alteration to a cover was a 'mistake' (spending almost half the video on it), & sticking with that determination regardless of all evidence to the contrary, not to mention not responding to anyone who disagreed with her, even those who went out of their way to be respectful, but to each their own, I guess. 🤨

From the moment that I watched the video from PTX through the long 8 days of waiting (lol) I have been waiting for your reaction in specific to this. Seriously. I remember you discovering PTX with Hallelujah and I have been with you for every step of the journey, and I knew that with your training you would bring a great reaction and an amazingly refined perspective to the piece. May I suggest that the 'wrong chord' you discussed was instead a deliberate choice? I know you're comparing back to the original, but by keeping everything within the same key signature (F) they did not change the musical timbre of the presentation... kinda like each key signature is supposed to have a 'character'... the modulation of the Eb back to F is a far more feminine approach, but in this version the singer is masculine. The dissonance is softened by the fact that the background vocals have an established pattern of harmonization utilizing neighboring tones in that passage, so it is in character with the overall timbre, and it also reinforces musical theory stylistic decisions from the intro where they extended the suspended fourth before resolving down to the F there as well. Without actually building a suspended 4th chord, by avoiding the chord change to the Eb major, they both produced a faux suspended resolution going into the F, they kept with the visual theme of being lost in the woods, and in fact set up the next phrase in the lyrics which is literally, "When we lose our way". When viewed from this perspective, that chord isn't so much 'wrong' as an intentional artistic embellishment upon the original, a way of reworking the arrangement to own their version, and put distance between the cover and the original. At least... from my POV. Feel free to disagree... music theory is subjective at the end of the day. ;) (And now I'm going to go run away from all the other musicians who are bound to jump on that last statement with both feet!)

Given that it's PTX, I'm very much doubting that it was a "mistake." Nor does it sound wrong. No, it's not the same but they don't always stay in lockstep with the original version of their covers. It sounds pleasing to my ears, and, while NOT a singer, my hearing is pretty good. That said, I'm impressed with how dedicated you were to working it out to your satisfaction. :D

I'm sure it was a choice, given that Mitch sang it differently at the next crescendo. It didn't hit my ear right though either. It sounded flat to me. But hey, artistic expression. They can do what they want with the song and shape it how they want. What I hate is how it seems the whole comment section is dumping on Maggie (who is still a Juilliard-trained opera singer) over this one chord and ignoring that she is literally gushing over the entire rest of the song.

Is that harmony written in stone? I would listen to anything Mitch puts pout over Celine any day.

I agree that, if we’re holding PTX to the chord progression used by others who’ve recorded this song - then yes, they didn’t follow the expected form. But - I think it was a choice. It lends for a colder ambiance - and truth be told, our dear Kevin LOVES bending rules this way. If there’s dissonance to be had, he’s having it.

That note of Mitch's was not a mistake but rather a distinct choice to differentiate from the original and make it THEIR own. I love, Love ,LOVE Scott's deeper register in this song. So rich and warm. YES I know, Speechless!!! And here we go AGAIN ! on the rollercoaster ride of PTX performance. Kirsties belting on "beeeeee" is just out of this world and so powerful. And can we just say Matt & Kevin, OMG laying down ALL the foundation work for them to build on is just, JUST so EPIC !!!! After that song you just NEED to sit back and rest and catch your breath and let things settle in your brain and heart. THAT is typical PTX writing. They know how to build and regress until you are about to explode and then bring you in for the ultimate landing. This also gets your emotions to soar up into the clouds where there is no air to breath. They ARE the MASTERS of this technique.

At this point, I don't think we even need to hit play to know it's amazing with anything PTX does. That said, this is definitely their best work in their career so far.

It was intentional love. This isn’t the first time they have done this btw. They do it to make it their own, and match what feel they are trying to convey. Instead of the chords resolving, it’s Mitch himself that resolves it. This gives a completely different feel from what Madam Celine portrayed at that point in the original. 👍🏽

@@PtxXtp You are 100% correct. When it comes to music, imitating EXACTLY what the original performer does makes it exactly what it sounds like. An imitation.. not a cover. There’s nothing wrong with doing that, if that was the intention. In fact, some people do that and it ends up sounding fantastic. With that said, it’s not an interpretation, it’s not a cover, and it’s certainly not original. It is an imitation. Pentatonix does not do imitation. Honestly, it’s very hard to say that they do covers either. We all joke about the saying: “Pentatonix doesn’t do covers, they do upgrades.” Ironically, that really is as close to the truth as possible. Everything they do is intentional, and everything they do has meaning. You are correct with what you said about their musical instinct, education, creativity, and secret weapon Ben Bram. As an example, listen to the portion of this song Maggie commented on, both PTX & Celine Dion’s version. The lyrics being: “And help us to be wise, in times when we don’t know.“ One could say that part song by Celine Dion has a uplifting, triumphant, warm feel. A secure and confident feel, as if assured that prayer will be answered. All United, both the background chords and Celine resolve together. Now listen to PTX. The background chords go immediately to resolution, but Mitch does not. Instead he ALONE resolves it. This gives the feel of hesitancy, uncertainty… but still hopeful. It is a very subtle thing, but it really does make a big difference. Especially when paired along the music video. Each member walking alone in a white forest of trees and snow, Until they come together and the flow of music and emotion swell. This group….. They really are the best at what they do.

I also believe they deliberately deviated from the original E-flat - F resolution, to make it sound less „jazzy“. Apart from that, they have an Fsus2 to F resolution, with Mitch singing the G, which also gives a dissonance, but not one as strong as the borrowed E-flat major course (coming from the Mixolydian mode). They simply saved the more „radical“ chords and harmonies for the build up later (at around 3:00) where they embark on more „adventurous“ harmonies!

You are wrong dear. Ptx would not make a mistake like that. It was intentional for sure. It's called "arranging". That's the way they chose to arrange this song. They are perfectionists & consummate professionals.

Oh fer cripes sake, they chose an F7sus to F resolution instead of an Eb to F, which btw, with Mitch's G the chord ended up being an Eb/F anyway. It was fun watching you freak tho. Butt seriously folks, thanks for the richly detailed reaction/analysis/gushfest.

It's not the band blocking videos, but their label. Seen several where the band has said on camera 'please react to our videos' and even one where the band was blocked when uploading their own video

No- it’s absolutely perfect harmony. It’s PTX. They changed it up on purpose ,putting their own spin on it.

I usually work day shift, but I've been working overnights this last week. I put off going to sleep when I got the notification for this video. Epic song done by an epic group, reacted to by an epic reactor! Thank you so much! 🙏

I'm not aware that they were duplicating the original version.

The ending high notes sounded like Mitch and Scott. Scott can get up in that range

Kevin! Kevin was singing at the end. And if anyone is going up there and you can't figure out who. it's most likely Kevin. it's in the tone. Mitch always sounds like Mitch. and same with Scott and Kirsty. Kevin sounds like pure music when he blends

It's Scott and Mitch. You can see and hear it in their Evergreen concerts.

Check out Peter Barber, he explained that chord and you are hearing something different

This could be Pentatonix 4th Grammy. This is a masterpiece. That was Kirstie singing the high note at the end since Mitch held the same note through the finale. I agree 50 awards easy. I don't know if you knew Kirstie was scheduled to star in the play "Children of Eden" but bowed out because other commitments. This play is heading to Broadway.

I felt the same way when Scott started to sing! It was the least "Pop-y" I have ever heard his voice! It was so rich and so full! It was gorgeous!!! You should hear it live. I felt like I almost died and went to heaven, it was so beautiful.

This is by far my favorite song sung by PTX and my favorite reaction of yours Maggie. This song touch my soul. Thanks for reacting and thank you John for sponsoring.

From what I've seen they all sing Nessum Dorma the same so I'm guessing it's sacrilege to change something. That being said, I like that they changed it and if PTX just did karaoke covers for songs they wouldn't be PTX.

Maggie when the wall of sound hits it absolutely blows your mental circuits. Breathtaking isn't it?

Trust me. They make NO mistakes. If they sing it, they MEANT to sing it. And it was obviously Mitch who hit those last high notes. I do love watching you react to them and becoming a Pentaholic. Like the rest of us!

The end high note is done by Mitch. If you listen to his notes from "safe" Scott goes straight on his note and Mitch goes up.

I finally understand what you mean by richness in a voice. Scott outdid himself, and Mitch was perfect as usual. Thanks, Maggie!

I've watched your reactions to Kevin's solo work, and you can see how deep his knowledge of music and sound are... Then when you realize that all five have that same level of knowledge, talent, and drive - there is no end to the surprises that they can create. I love watching you lose your mind. ;-)

By the way, this video was shot inside a studio. Watch their behind the scenes video. It will explain a lot.

Ever since I first heard this rendition of "The Prayer" I've said that it's Grammy-worthy. And now _Evergreen,_ the album on which it was released, has indeed been nominated for a Grammy. I'll be watching the Grammy's award ceremony on February 5 for the first time ever; I don't normally pay attention to awards ceremonies. But *this* time it would be Matt's first Grammy, and I really want Matt to have his very own Grammy. 🤞

That note at the end sounds like Kevin. At the end of Amazing Grace, you can hear that in a lower pitch, but the the vocal tone is the same. That combined with Mitch's .... wow

I Agree, Mitch always sounds like Mitch to me. And in a blend if you can't pick out exactly who it's often Kevin. He sounds like pure music when everyone else has a distinct flavor that says "oh that's Kirstie" and he can blend his sound so well.

That's Mitch on the high note at the end, camera on him as he 'adjusts' to that note..not falsetto, as earlier, but his powerful upper-register head voice, whilst I recognize Kirsten's mid-range tone, chest voice. Incredible, beautiful indeed, and gratzi for the enjoyable reaction!!

I listened and watched your entire reaction three times and got more out of each time! Fantastic! Thank you for posting this. I will now go back and enjoy all of your reaction videos, you ROCK !

Pentatonix have been singing together about 12 years. They all met in college each majoring in classical.

So glad I'm not the only person who is aggravated about that. Then she sings along with them, & she is off key. I was hoping that I could listen to her reaction to this without her having the audacity to sing over them, but I guess I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up. She does that a lot & that's why I don't watch many of her reactions. She is a sweet person & I like her, but I just can't deal with a reactor singing along. How can you react when you can't concentrate fully because you are singing?

I just laughed & ignored the comment. There's no sense in replying to someone like that - that's what they want, so they can continue spouting nonsense over something that doesn't even matter to anyone else.
