Only PTX can sound like they "went" acapella while singing acapella. Breathtaking!

@traceyanderson7489 Год назад

Yes!

@melissacoviello2886 Год назад

I knew you were going to lose it when Kevin sang. It’s such a powerful moment. I am soooo excited for the week of Pentatonix. I get to see them in concert on Thursday so it’s the perfect week for me. My first time ever seeing them live.

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Oh wow!! Exciting 😁

@Matriarch456 Год назад

you are such a lucky one have fun !!

@Eric1SanDiego1 Год назад

We ALL knew she was going to lose it when Kevin sang! :)

@dren608 Год назад

You'll love them, Saw them in 2019 with wife and my Daughter - my daughter's first concert!

@roslynhill5514 Год назад

I bought my tickets yesterday to see them in December! I’m sooo excited!!

@tiffanytosh1569 Год назад

The ‘hum’ at the beginning is a nod to the drone sound of bagpipes, which are often used in this song, and it was done by Kirstie and Kevin.

@danielcarter837 Год назад

Kirstie leading the Wall of Sound and when you just can't take it anymore they drop Kevin in for the kill shot. Just emotional. The first time I heard this the tears just started when I heard Kevin come in. Maybe it was just because it was in the Covid year of 2020. Should have been nominated for a Grammy.

@bonnieflynn4798 Год назад

Yes yes yes agree

@kellyjene77 Год назад

Kirstin's vibrato when she first comes in, almost sounds like Dolly Parton. It's gorgeous!

@franciscojavierp.7162 Год назад

Pentatonix is always a secure bet

@lengould9262 Год назад

I love how Kirstie and Kevin do the opening verse as the drone pipes on a bagpipe while the others sing the chanter. Beautiful how their outstanding skill has them constantly flirting with "muddying up" the sound but their control and disciplined arranging never quite allows it to happen.

@mswitch936 Год назад

This is probably my favorite song for Kevin, Matt, and Mitch. Kevin and his high tenor is amazing. Matts warm baritone. And Mitch with the baritone/tenor, we rarely get to hear him sing lower in his range. Love it!

@dougbowers4415 Год назад

I enjoy how the hand claps by Kevin liberally utilize reverb in the studio that emulates the acoustics of the chapel where the video was recorded. The chapel is stone at the bottom and nearly all glass above that creating a very live sound. I’ve attended a wedding in that chapel and recognized the acoustics even though the audio wasn’t recorded there. The venue is the Wayfarer’s Chapel. It’s located on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in Southern California.

@davidh.4649 Год назад

Jennifer! A great start to a Pentatonix week! Just love some of the chord progressions they throw in which keeps it interesting. And that famous Pentatonix "wall of sound" that hits you late in the song before they let you down easy at the end. 😲 Just beautiful setting too. Can't wait for tomorrow already! Great reaction and analysis as always! 😊 Thank you so much for what you do!

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Thank you so much! And yes, stunning 😁

@thechomiji Год назад

I believe that here, in the first part of her solo, Kirstin is consciously echoing the technique of country singers like Dolly Parton! Then she breaks open into her more usual Broadway-style belt on "...mine!"

@Badger77722 Год назад

Always love to hear your analysis, even though I'm not a singer and much of it goes over my head. But your ability to explain it all just makes me even more impressed with how the singers of Pentatonix use all of these little tricks and methods to give us these gorgeous songs. And your reaction to Kevin's singing was glorious! Surprised and shocked and pleased, all at the same time!

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Ahaha thank you! Yeah stunning 😁

@LeskeyC001 Год назад

That’s a KO by Kevin!

@carladewitt1947 Год назад

Excellent analysis as always. Just a couple little things I love about this PTX cover, first Kirsten and Kevin holding that note at the beginning that is so reminiscent of bagpipes, and secondly, Mitch's angel wings, visible when they walk into the church. Very much looking forward to the rest of PTX week. 😍😁

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Oh lovely! Thanks!

@seannovack3834 Год назад

Carla, thank you for bringing that up. That "bagpipe drone" sound is precisely what the group was trying to achieve.

@c.k5723 Год назад

South African greetings to everyone. Good morning. This song of Pentatonix reaches a level that can't be explained in words. Beyond beautiful ❤️

@bonnieflynn4798 Год назад

Hi South Africa. Lucky enough to,have visited. Beautiful Country

@lovesmusic0845 Месяц назад

I thought you needed to have at least 200 comments on this reaction. Your observations are excellent. I find them very entertaining and instructive. I’ve been a huge fan of PTX since 2011. I saw their first televised performance on The Sing Off. Watched them get dumped by a record label and build their careers with determination and talent. I’ve heard hundreds of their songs and have never tired of them. I love their version of this song because everyone gets to sing a section that shows some different ranges in their voices. Thank you for showcasing them. ❤

@AngieCHolland Год назад

One of my favorites. If you know the history of Amazing Grace, written by John Newton, pairing it with the modern worship song My Chains Are Gone is brilliant. Newton was heavily involved in the Atlantic Slave Trade but found himself calling for God’s mercy in a terrible storm at sea in the mid 1700s. He later became a staunch abolitionist and wrote this classic hymn. What Pentatonix does here is truly inspired. Your reaction did not disappoint. I was waiting for Kevin at the end. 😉

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Oh wow! Thank you for sharing that background info! And yes 😱 took me by surprise!!!

@hernameispekka_Rebecca Год назад

This is one of the reasons I love that Matt opens the song and Kevin closes it. And that they are standing in front. I don't know if it was on purpose or not, but it's a very powerful image knowing the history of the song.

@CaptainPikeachu Год назад

To be fair, Pentatonix didn’t pair the songs, Chris Tomlin did it years ago for the film Amazing Grace. It’s a beautiful rendition by PTX certainly, but Chris Tomlin was the first to do it.

@AngieCHolland Год назад

@@CaptainPikeachu Yes, as someone who listens to Chris Tomlin, I am aware. I wasn't referring to Pentatonix as having paired the two, but the pairing of the two originally/generally.

@lorriredmon8212 Год назад

I love your reactions. I don't often hear people talk about Kirstens vibrato. For me, it's reminiscent of Dolly Parton's. Very fast and fluttery. Of course, she uses it at will. If you don"t know Kevin has perfect pitch. As we all know, they're all so fabulous! I'm looking forward to all your PTX upcoming reactions.

@daytrader2694 Год назад

Would love to hear your analysis of Pentatonix' version of "Run to You". Some of the most effective use of dissonance I've ever heard. At 73 I've heard a lot of dissonance, some intentional and some not, but I believe you will really enjoy this one.

@bobwallace3295 Год назад

Pentatonix is the group that rekindled my interest in acapella ... before I became a "Home Fry" 🙂... they truly get better every year. Looking forward to the rest of the week, Jen ... thanks for this special treat!

@foghorn90leghorn73 Год назад

Wonderful analysis. Did you note that Kevin started the song in 3/4 time. When Scott began it shifted to 2/4 time. The 3/4 is traditional and Pentatonix typically put its own stamp on the song, and beautifully as usual.

@garrywood5015 Год назад

Another superb reaction from you, Jennifer! I must admit that perhaps my favourite part of your reactions is watching your facial expressions as you demonstrate that you are absolutely enjoying what you are listening to and analyzing for us! And of course I appreciate all of the little technical details that you pick out and explain to us. Keep up the great work, and I am looking forward to 'Pentatonix week'! Thanks again for a great reaction!! 🇨🇦

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Ahaha thank you😁

@lottiep3134 Год назад

I love this version of one of my all time favourite hymns. I have to say though Kirstin's solo makes me tear up every time I hear her. I feel she can be overlooked in favour of the drama of Mitch's performances. Awesome reaction/analysis as always. Jenn.

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

So great! Thank you😁

@themightierpencil Год назад

Kirstin's section is what pushed this to the top of my All Time Favorite list (now it's just under The Prayer, but again, Kirstin's section in that is where I started bawling)

@philipkudrna5643 Год назад

Kirstie is known for her fast vibrato. It's also in "The Prayer". :-)

@primemover1416 Год назад

Sounds like she's channeling a certain older large-breasted country singer with her first two solo lines. Jolene, Jolene!

@jimtuell4076 Год назад

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Thank you😁

@blitzofchaosgaming6737 Год назад

I'm glad you mentioned arrangement. It is what they won their first grammy for. And is the thing that can't be heard here.

@CaptainPikeachu Год назад

I love the fact that they used Chris Tomlin’s version of the song that he did for the film Amazing Grace, which is about the creation of the song and the abolition of slavery in Britain, Tomlin’s version is my favorite version of hymn and it’s so cool to have PTX cover it in their own unique way.

@talyn5304 Год назад

Wonderful reaction! It seemed like Mitch vacated the upper, upper ranges to accommodate Kevin's finale performance. =)

@vidsorama2 Год назад

I enjoyed your reaction to and analysis of this beautiful Pentatonix video. Thank you. I look forward to the rest of Pentatonix week.

@ellenmoriarty8747 Год назад

I disagree, way too many interruptions,to much talking😅

@ellenmoriarty8747 Год назад

I don’t care what the notes are.The important part is the singing,harmonization and how they make their choice of songs their own.

@kevinhouse1015 Год назад

Kirsten sounds a bit like Dolly Parton at the first. Her voice is so strong and she shows it in the chorus.

@meganferraro8145 Год назад

I LOVE this from them for 1 specific reason...because we get Matt Scott and Mitch together. We don't get that often.

@tersommers Год назад

Wonderful breakdown! Thank you! Can't wait for tomorrow!!

@chrisbateman5358 Год назад

An absolutely fantastic song (enhanced by Chris Tomlin and Louie Giglio - My Chains Are Gone) performed by a fantastic group (PTX - always so tight with harmonies and phenominal delivery) which was brilliantly analyzed by a fantastic reactor (that would be Jen 😁)... Looking forward to a great PTX week!

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Ahaha thank you!!!😁

@steveeverett1736 Год назад

@@JenniferGlatzhofer Jen your analyses are so good, you would not be dipped in Gold, you'd be dipped in Platinum!

@christopherbritton1840 Год назад

The intro always makes me think of bagpipes with the "ooh's" being the drone note and Scott and Mitch adding the harmony layers that you would get in a pipe and drum.corp.

I love that she is checking notes on Kirsten's part. Right before the human drum machine SINGS and shows his singing voice is as high as Mitch. Yes Jennifer. All three of the beatboxers (Adam, Layne and Kev) can sing. Kev is a Tenor and the other 2 are Baris.

@dianeburgess3467 Год назад

That droning sound is mimicking bag pipes, which are often used with this song. I think this is Kirstie and Kevin.

@pjb3583 Год назад

Things I learned in this reaction: Kirstie’s fluttery vocal was actually vibrato, and Respect The Folds is my new motto.

@markmyers6472 Год назад

the backing 'ooohs' always remind me of the drone pipes on a bagpipe.....

@steveeverett1736 Год назад

Hopefully, your play list include Leonard Cohens 'Hallelujah' which PTX did early, just so you can hear/connect to how developed Kirstens vibrato is so much better , with Amazing Grace. She shows more strength, control and breathe control with Amazing Grace than I would have thought possible, it just shows so well how her voice is compared to early on

@JenniferGlatzhofer Год назад

Hallelujah reaction is up on my channel already 😁

@WizardofOwls 7 месяцев назад

Amazing Grace played on bagpipes is VERY popular here in the US. The droning sound sung by Kirstin and Kevin here is meant to mimic the sound of the bagpipes.

Simply stunning. Everything about this video is perfect.

Enjoying your PTX week out of order, but love your reaction to all their expertly crafted 'surprises.' Kevin was a best kept secret for a while, but word is that Avi helped him find the strength and confidence in his natural tenor voice back when they were roommates. I love your in depth study of what's going in in those vocal folds, and looking forward to more PTX from you even after this week. 🙂

@SouthAfricanMedic Год назад

The background sound in the first verse by Kirstin and Kevin is meant to replicate the drone from bagpipes that very often is used with this song

@totoro123 Год назад

Yay ptx "week"... It's been a minute since you reacted to them! 😅 Love your expression at being KO'd by Kevin O's little moment at the end 😊 I've never understood why Kirstie takes so many breaths in her solo part. Surely she could have easily done each phrase without the breath in the middle? It jars to my ear every time....

@shhaggman Год назад

What a great idea PTX week.

@rogerroger5171 Год назад

@neetgupta1 Год назад

Kirstie has a very fast, tight vibrato. I think it's particularly noticeable in 'Sound of silence'. I think this is one of the best examples of the PTX 'Wall of sound'. Kevin can sing very high - Mitch says even higher than him! To truly have your mind blow listen to Matt sing I think a G#5 (and he's their bass!) at the end of the live Evergreen tour version of Joyful Joyful!

@hollym73e Год назад

I'm a *bit* obsessed with watching PTX reactions. I've seen this one in particular more times than I can count. Several times you spoke about articulation/pronunciation/enunciation (definitely not an English teacher here, I'm not sure of the difference between those things). Something I noticed that I've never heard anyone mention is the way the different artists sing "ransomed me", specifically with "ed" of ransom(ed). I hear it very lightly with Scott, I clearly hear the "d" with Mitch, and Kirstie it sounds like she's combining ransom/me. Each way sounds great, it's just something that I noticed.

@DanielBrown-sn9op Год назад

YOU are an adorable musician.
