I was thinking the same thing. My other thought was that the show is just rigged

Scott and Mitch, and Kirstie all have extremely recognizable voices b/c they take the majority of the leads in the songs they sing (plus being accapella makes you recognize the voices more imo). If they wanted any chance of not immediately being recognized, they should have had Scott and Kevin sing the leads. They also have amazing voices but because of their positions in the band they don't the leads that often. But in any case, they killed it xD I've been a fan since The Sing Off, they do amazing and rearranging songs like this

What genuinely blows my mind is that Scott alone was so dominant and just on a level beyond everyone else on that show that they literally had to alter his voice when in costume in order to kick it out of tune once in a while and attempt to try and keep it from being completely obvious who it was, which they completely failed at. Anyone that has ever heard them knew immediately who was in those costumes.

Yeah, I saw the first performance and cringed-not that it was bad, but it just wasn't "them.". The singers on the Masked Singer always have to try and "disguise" their voices so it's not so obvious from the beginning, and I hated to hear PTX not be their authentic selves. I wasn't optimistic that this was really the proper showcase for them, but apparently they made it work and got pretty far into the competetion. I'm happy they got to do this full on and really show their stuff. This song really showcased Scott, but my God, MITCH!!!!!

@kdtfiles1

I kind of think that the funky "off" sound to their voices was more because of the costumes and less of the audio being mixed to mess with their voices. You gotta figure the costumes are very restrictive, right up in their faces and they are singing in a box with padding. So it's gonna affect them a bit.
