I love their story. "Shortly after graduating from high school/Yale, we catapulted into stardom! Well... we had to wait for Mitch. THEN we catapulted into stardom."
emilyfaith OH lol my bad, it was just my condensed version. Not really a quote. I learned recently that Kevin had just graduated from Yale like Mitch had graduated from High School. I don't know if he had to miss his graduation like Mitch did, though.
Caitlin Rodriguez Definitely :D I just wondered if it was the same situation for Kevin, also. I heard he had JUST graduated from Yale when they did all this. I think it all worked out perfectly for them! I'm glad Mitch doesn't feel like he missed anything lol
1. No mics or gear 2. Classroom with bad acoustics 3. Recorded on a cell phone And they still sound great. Anyone charging them with being "manufactured" should watch vids like this.
You prolly dont care but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can watch all the new movies and series on Instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my gf lately :)
I love this video also because they students are respectfully quiet, unlike their concert videos where you can't hear them over all the fangirls screaming.
I've found that most of the "fangirls screaming" are because they are singing along to the music. They don't sing along if they don't have a loud sound system.
+churde It sounds nice... but, for example, you don't get Avi's bass line very clearly... and the highlighting of whoever it currently soloing suffers a bit because the accompanying harmony tends to overwhelm / unbalance... versus having a competent sound engineer... balancing the pots.
Nina O I'm now a bit confused myself, tbh... Pretty sure Scott is 6'3". When standing next to him, Avi looks a *lot* shorter, not just 4" shorter. Can't imagine him making it up though. Mitch seems shorter than 5'10", as he never really towers over Kirsty, does he? Anyhoo, I'll be meeting them soon, so I can report back. I can also get specific inside leg measurements on request ;o)
tahsa bell Yes, am aware she nearly always wears towering heels, but I think she's quite short. There is no way that Scott is only 4 inches taller than Avi! Which he would be if they're 6'3" and 5'11". Also, Kevin is 6'1" so should only look 2 inches taller than Avi. Conclusion: Avi needs heels... ;o)
I feel like it'd be really cool like if someone was a freshman when they were seniors and now they are seniors and they see Pentatonix performing, it would just seem like a really surreal experience
They were showing respect and actually listening which I for one thank them for. Usually at live performances quality suffers more because the audience won't shut up and let them sing.
I love Kirstie and it just appears how she is happy to sink into background singing in these early videos. She STILL shines, but NOW she belts like Scottie and Mitch! To me-as a composer and pianist- Kirstie, to me personally, is the one in whom I’ve seen the greatest growth! There is no shade on anyone in PTX! The band is the greatest on the globe!
"The one in the hat sounds like a girl" Yes, yes he does. And do you know how extremely rare and amazing that is.. he is a countertenor and for a man to sing like a girl is something that isn't funny at all and is actually something that you should be amazed by. Have several seats.
Ironic that he’s won 3 Grammys, toured the world, sings to sold out arenas, can out-sing most people (women included) but has to go back to his own high school where he was once mercilessly bullied for his voice to get teased. It’s no wonder it took him so long to embrace who he is. 😢 Mitch may not have heard you, but the kids sitting around you did. Don’t be THAT guy honey…I hope you’ve come around as you’ve gotten older and wiser, and hopefully learned to embrace all that makes us different. 💛 All the best to you in the future, I hope you find a way to pay the apology forward. xo
"check out this picture on my phone" at like 3:16 ... uhmmm nooooo look at the beautiful queens less than 5 metres away from you omf what are you doing
Wow. I had awesome respect for these guys anyway, but hearing them perform without mics in simply a classroom is fantastic. It shows their true musicianship. Balance is incredible!
GUYS COME TO MY SCHOOL MOSTLY NO ONE KNOWS WHO YOU GUYS ARE THEY NEED TO KNOW!! And if I was in that room then Mitch, Scott, and Avi run bc I wanna hug ya lol I would have to be held back from hugging Mitch they would have to pry me off of him I wanna have a shoppin day with Mitch and check out guys ☺️😂
Love You Long Time @ 5:34 was the best. Have not heard the other 2 they did before. I think they did such a good job especially when it was without equip.
Amazingly proficient for their age group . . . especially without any professional setup and the unconducive environment of a classroom. Beautiful ability to stay on pitch with competing riffs complicating the texture.
I realize this comment was made 8 years ago but "proficient for their age group"? Amazing is the word and for any age group. You go into a classroom having to deal with all the memories of being in that very room as an awkward high school student, be asked to sing songs you normally don't sing together, especially since you are there to record Christmas music, and sing like that. Dare you. They are very much beyond "proficient ".
That was ridiculously great! I wish I could have seen them live. They sang one of my favorite covers "Let Me Love You A Long Time" or something like that. If you have any other videos of them visiting your high school, please share. Thanks for the video.
wow, i hate this. just what is wrong with sounding like a girl?! in fact, what is wrong with doing anything that's like a girl?! Mitch is perfect the way he is, and that includes his voice.
Thank you!!! It's so true haters back the heck off mitch is freaking awesome like he is have a problem with him being his self then keep it to yourself bc ain't none of us gonna want to hear it!! Glad that you commented this I totally agree with you Mitch is great how he is
+Sasuke Uchiha So do you hate people with mental disorders then? It doesn't matter whether you think a trans boy is a girl or not, he deserves the same respect as a person who isn't trans deserves. There is no place for hate in the future, and we're moving towards it.
These folks are wonderful. I could listen all day to this talent. This takes practice, power and ponfidence, sorry, couldn't find confidence that started with a P. lol. Great job, when are you comming to Fantasy of Flight Aircraft Museum in Polk City, Florida? Let's think a bit about this venu. They have Roctober Fest in October.
