XG - WINTER WITHOUT YOU / THE FIRST TAKE reaction 

ALPHAZ! Join the Differently Alike Discord server and let's discuss XG in the XG channel.

“This should be on the news… WORLD news!” 😂 Yes… agreed!!!

I love how it is subtly different from the studio version, Harvey's pace is slightly different, the girl's runs are slightly different, but it still sounds like a studio recording! Thanks for reacting 🐺

I have to also say, Harvey’s voice and tone are amazing. She’s definitely not to be slept on. Hinata finally showing her stuff. I love her so much. I just wish they focused some on Jurin cause she was doing a lot of the mid-low harmonies. I love the combination of Hinata, Jurin, Harvey and Cocona during the chorus parts. Ooof, their tone and harmonies are insane.

A heavy rap and dance girl group just showed us a gospel level type of RnB performance! *Maya is the queen of soul. Chisa's vocal acrobatics are top-tier!* She has a wide knowledge of music styles and singing abilities. All XG members are the BEST and CERTIFIED DOPE. Dance queens, Rap queens, Vocals queens, Trilingual queens Fashion queens Visual queens. 🔥🧨⚡💖💘💝 #XG #WINTERWITHOUTYOU #XPOP #JPOP #KPOP

Chisa manages to shock me every single time she’s insane

I love this song since it's released, but then my mother died yesterday and now I truly felt the lyrics.

ESOSAさんが言ってた 「XGを作るのはギャンブルの様なものだったけど彼等はそれに全てを費やし、それは報われた」的な事を言ってるけどホントにそれなんだよな〜。 ものすごく努力したXGも凄いけど、 サイモンさんが自身の夢の為に大一番の勝負をしてXGを生み出してくれた事に感謝しかない。 こんなにも感情を揺さぶられるグループは初めてだよ🫶

beautiful voice shower. Totally XG is the best female group in the world now.

I have to say one of things that really struck me about XG is that they all get good outfits, good makeup, camera time, solo shots all equally and that’s sooooo rare in a kpop group. Because it’s so evenly distributed I can’t decide on my fav one day it’s Harvey the next Chisa wait nvm Hinata etc. That never happens to me to be so entranced by all of them at different times that I can’t really choose a bias because they all shine is such a gift that allows us to appreciate every member. XG has renewed my love for groups boy or girl, they have completely won me over and I’m so excited to see what they do next!

Thank you ladies for this reaction. Just a reminder they also did Shooting Star. “It’s Live” is also available but that might get you flagged. You guys can watch that on your own time, but I will tell you though. That version has a different vibe. Now, this ladies can do this and turn around and give us move 1, 3, HesonoO/X-Gene dance performances. They’re not just all vocalists but a dance crew that can do everything. Esosa, they’ve been accused of lip syncing and faking their vocal performances. Trust me, there’s a lot of haters out there. And I’m glad they did this to shut them up.

The layering in their harmonies are out of this world!!!

Maya's vocals are beautiful. Maya is one of the lead vocalists. We usually hear Maya rapping voice.

XG is definitely the most underrated group in music today! To harmonize with 7 members is extremely hard! The passion and soul they sing with runs through their veins and this performance clearly shows it or should i say all their performances! 🐺 👽

Rolling Stone today released its Top 25 most stylish artists of 2024. XG was ranked #21. XG is the only girl group who even appears on the entire list. This list included artists like Beyoncé, Dua Lipa, Doja Cat, Cardi B, Pharrell, Madonna

I love Maya on a fast rap, but why are her vocals slaying me???

You guys really know how to spot perfection.. I mean, that pause and zoom on jurin;s face...like, YASSS!! And Cocona's longing eyes when singing... I cried..

Honestly in my opinion there shouldn't be a title in XG like main rapper or main vocalist all can sing, all can rap, all can dance etc they are just to fucking good with everything they do I'm so hyped for their world tour

This performance deserves to be in the Louvre

リアクションありがとうございます❤XGは最高のグループです🔥 これからも一緒に応援していきましょう❤

GOD damn... this group.... those adlibs those harmony... whattttttt??

XG is terrific. They are the new power of group for revolution of music. Winter Without You is sp far my best song in this 10 years

I think they really really love singing, dancing, and their friends, and they are trying to fulfill them as a way of life, not just tools. I am very much looking forward to next year!

Vocal revelations... They do two more RnB ballads with harmonizations and blending similar to that? and i might think they are the female version of Boys2Men. Thats just me.. 🤭 They are top notch. XGALX team and Simon-san gave us a wonderful present. Thank you both Esosa and Ozlem, for your appreciation of and reactions for the Xtraordinary Girls. 👍💯🔥

This song really feels insane. My grandmother died on December 4. But then they released this sing on December 8 so when I first heard this song, I bawled my emotions out. This song explains all the emotions I can't express myself.

Thank you for always reactions to XG Everyone's singing voice is really amazing ! In this song, Chisa's serious singing voice gave me goosebumps.

Best girl group out, no contest. Kpop or not, they're doing things better than any of the other groups

XG really said it and they meant it. They’re changing the game and they rightfully deserve all the recognition and success. Thx you Simon and the entire XGALX team for this amazing gift 🙏🏻

Listen.. Maya and Hinata are slept on and i am so glad some people are waking up to the multi-talented artist they are.

XG effortlessly doing vocal gymnastics is just a whole new level of power. Their vocals is out of this world even from the rapline. The Osaka Sisters Chisa and Juria with that power. And Maya. Ms. Kawachi Maya. She just proved herself she's an ACE. Also Hinata with those runs finally claiming her Vocalist spot once and for all. What a great to be an ALPHAZ. ❤

Your comments in the end really sums up what I and all true ALPHAZ feel. This assembly of truly Xtraordinary Girls is a once in a lifetime occurrence. I would like to also add that this would not occur if these girls did not have the truest of hearts and intention. You see it in their vlogs and how they treat each other and the people around them. That only makes my love for them deeper.

Chisa's vocals took me to heaven, and then with the choir where everyone sings they left me there ✨

2人のリアクションが面白すぎてかわいい😂

Pure Art... ♾️🤍

This is going to be a classic winter song. OZLEM is Super Cute

their beautiful voices ♥ they did shooting star too on first take btw

TEARS. Simply tears. My god I adore this group.

Ladies, I love your “love rant” at the end and I totally 100000000% agree with you. Ever since discovering them. They brought back great music from the past and they still made it their own. I’m sure Simon will be watching this and will agree as well. The past, the present, and the future is what they brought to all of us Alphaz. Can’t wait for their world tour and I will be there no matter what. Happy New Year ladies. Stay healthy and safe. See you guys next year

とうちゃん、かあちゃん、ありがとうございます。 ！！！！！😳！両親の日本語！ どんどん上手になっていますね😊 本当に彼女達を産み育ててくれた両親に、サイモンさんに感謝と敬意の心が生まれます🥲 いつもリアクション楽しみにしています。来年はワールドツアー行きましょう！

It was crazy watching Xtra Xtra episodes 3-4 which is when we see all of the girls singing. So I am not surprised that XG songs keep allowing the members we think as the rap line, show their vocals. Hinata is shining in her moments. I love that of all of the members, she doesn't close her eyes when she sings her lines. No effort at all on her part!!

The live version being even better than the recorded is insaneeeee. XG GLOBAL DOMINATION 🎉🎉 also everyone ate but Maya DAMN

LOVE THE REACTION THE VOCALS IN THE SONG WERE EVERYTHING ❤

Those voices were so entrancing!!! I regrettably can no longer have a single bias..I love them all!!!

I did the same thing Esosa. Their fits already consistently great but I love it what they have a color theme and the white/ pink is beautiful on the all but when I saw Jurin I was stunned. The fit, the hair the makeup were perfect for her.

I’m gonna get a lot of haters for saying this but other idol groups I see nowadays don’t hit me like XG do. Especially those from the big 4. They just don’t have as much likability or chemistry, and don’t stand out. Cookie cutter shit. These girls are SO talented, SO humble, SO authentic and SO loving with each other. They truly truly feed my soul and I hate saying sappy shit like this, honestly, but XG is really special. I hope they get the level of success they so deserve.

there are two unique vocal tones in this group - Harvey and Cocona

Agreed. They are killing it, yet we haven't seen the full potential of XG yet. It's just the beginning. XG and their team are next level. 🔥🔥🔥

It should be a crime for rappers to sing this freakin good… truly 1 of 1. The talent is just out of this world. They deserve more exposure than they’re getting. It’s mind blowing to me to call XG “Underrated” but here we are.

this 7 talented young ladies been away from their families since 2017 so that they could bless our ears today ❤ #eargasm

Estoy bsolutamente de acuerdo con todo lo que dijeron de XG... literal este es mi primer grupo de chicas que staneo... se nota en ellas la quimica, y la harmonia entre todas ellas, el amor que se tienen una a la otra. Esa union como lo dicen en Hesonoo "cordon umbilical" ellas estan tan unidas!!!! YO AMO A TODAS LAS 7 🙏

When I first watched them in Mascara and fell in love, never did I imagine they’d be capable of something like this. Like, Hinata and Maya barely got lines in that song and yet here we are!? My goodness.

The absolute exact reaction they deserve and earn. XG is just out of this world on every level with everything.

That harveys voice is unique.all members alien talent indeed.

The exact reaction I was expecting after watching their reaction to the MV. 😂 The way this version highlights the adlibs and harmonies even more than the studio track is so amazing.

Our Xtraordinary Girls have really gone above and beyond this year transporting us every single time to another world when they release a song. Especially with “WINTER WITHOUT YOU” so many emotions flooding through when I hear this song whichever way you look at it. On a personal level when you’re feeling sad, there’s a sense of warmth and comfort they bring to this song through the vocals and lyrics. Or when you look at their journey throughout the year they have done Xtraordinary things together, uplifting, inspiring, and loving not only us ALPHAZ, but everyone around them including each other. XG, XGALX, and Simon-san Have truly made not only my year but all the fans and ALPHAZ year. And they’re only still just beginning. I will continue to support XG in everything they do! Thanks again Esosa and Özlem for always supporting XG and perfectly portraying us ALPHAZ emotions towards XG. Love y’all, HESONOO!!!

私の言いたいこと全部言ってくれてありがとう😂 XGのパフォーマンスを見るたびに感動して泣きそうになるし、彼女たちが存在していることに感謝したくなります✨

It's perfection. There is no other word for it. Their skills (dancing, rapping, singing) are unmatched in this genre right now.

The harmonies made me go insane!!!

Hard to pick a favorite, all these girls are amazing

XG was the highlight of my 2023!

XG are National treasure! We are so lucky to have them in this era~ 👍👍🤩🤩

HESONO O~~~!!! 待ってました～あなた達のリアクションいつも”まだかなぁ”と楽しみにしている７１才のXジジィです 今回のXG❤〆曲：WINTER WITHOUＴ YOU は心に沁みる名曲ですね😭マジであのXGマイク🎤になりたいです🤩 2024/XG-WORLD TOURでXGと宇宙へ行きましょう👽良いお年をお迎えくださいね。A HAPPY NEW YEAR～💞🐺

Maya voice is so matured

I see XG, I click 😅❤🐺

Japanese vocal coach said that Cocona mayn't in good physical condition at this time. But her voice is very good.

ジュリンをアップにして、ママとパパに感謝してるのが最高すぎる🥹♥️ 感想も、「WOW.WOW.WOW」でワォしか出てこないのが、同じすぎて！！！😂 気持ち、分かる！！！！

Please support us so that XG can reach the world. Your reactions were great. ☺️ Also, please support Psychic Fever, which is just as cool as XG.

Esosa's "I wanna cry already" is such a mood when it comes to XG. lmfao

Im sorry I reacted so late but god dang I am proud to be an Alpha. XG’s journey are paying dividends. They are best vocal group ever. Com’ on now who’s gonna top this. Luv ya reaction…btw eff’em haters.

😭 my favorite beautiful peoples!!!! XG!!!

I have never come across a group this close to perfect EVER!!! They literally have it all 👏👏👏 thx for reacting to this one cause we’ve been waiting for it 🙏

the truth of it one Take, isnt edited, not voice changes up, pure sound, talent, their voices and perfect.

XG so nice

Chisa is so pretty 🤩🤩

9:13母ちゃん父さんバカ笑ったww

Harvey rapping flow and tone alternating is low key fire. Maya kicked it. Chisa and Juria the usual foundation.

Now for the Band Version Ladies!!! Happy New Year ALPHAZ!! YES, NO ONE NOW CAN QUESTION THE VOCALS OF XG...

貴女達にここまで愛して頂いている『XG』ちゃん達が更により多くの世界中の方々に知ってもらえますように…

First take is top tier but heir It’s Live version is more raw and is even more perfect for me. XG is truly the future!!

I love love love love love love XG

Juria underrated 💯

You ladies said everything we all want to say about XG!! The best is yet to come with these girls, I can't wait to see them next year, letttss gooo!! 🐺❤🚀💫

XG❤

I’m so happy to watch your XG reactions 😄💕you express everything I feel for XG.

It's a whole ass choir 😭💕💕 XG never fails to slay another year, and I can't wait for next year!! 💖💖

素敵なリアクションありがとう XGというグループに出会えたこと この素晴らしい曲には本当に感動したこと 何度も何度もリピートして聞いています お2人と同じように すべてに感謝します😊🙏

XG is life they are angels sent from above ♥️🙏

This song is ear love.

My favorite song😊❤

Eu amo os reacts de vocês. Eu sou uma Alphaz do Brasil e sou simplesmente apaixonada pelo XG. Minha bias é a Maya, meu bebê. XG simplesmente arrasa em todas as músicas mas essa em especial é a perfeição. XG é um grupo que veio dominar o mundo. Dança perfeita, vocais perfeitos, visuais perfeitos, looks perfeitos. Como não amar XG? Confesso que eu choro quando vejo os vlogs delas passeando e sendo reconhecidas pelos fans, quando vejo elas conquistando seu espaço. Elas merecem sucesso mundial. Vamos fazer isso acontecer Alphaz, elas merecem. Lutaram muito por isso por anos com tanta dedicação nos treinos e continuam colocando muito esforço, dedicação e amor em tudo o que fazem para nós. Vamos apoiar o XG pra sempre Alphaz!!!

I swear i binge their reaction videos like XG content lol always A1 flawless reactions thank youuu

Their voices are like a pixie dust to my ears god ❤❤ React to the it’s live version too you’ll love it

No because loving XG is my destiny for real 😂😂😂😂

What I tell ya XG going wild for this one! That vocals, that controls, that ad-libs, everything just perfect and most important thing, its live 😏

They are so underrated, stunning vocals and also great rap skills. I discovered them recently and fell in love with their work, they definitely deserve more!!! 🤍

I'm really glad that xg are starting to show off their vocals , I've always knew that they're really talented but wwy made people really realize how talented they are

Simon had a unique vision, he found these girls who have their own unique vision, he found a team with their own unique vision, all these visions have combined and xgalx is just truly ascendent... 🥹💖🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺💖🥹

このファーストテイクのリアクションは絶対ある❗️と思ってたので待ってました。 もう、期待以上のリアクションとXGちゃんたちへのコメントで聞いているこちらもホントそれ‼️と思いながら見てました😂 表現出来ないんですよ、彼女たちのパフォーマンス。もう、毎回期待の上を軽く越えて来て、かつ完成度の高さ。言葉がない感動と感情の揺さぶりを都度感じています。まさか、この時代に、しかも50歳になってからこんなグループに巡り合うなんて思っても見なかったです。これからも応援します🎵

The first two girls do Peaches on Vox 1 and it’s so awesome!

After not really resonating with the MV, I am still shocked that it was this version that broke me. From Maya's perfect embellishment from falsetto in her solo to Hinata's airy yet piercing vocal highlights (this is actually really hard to do and even though she isnt like... as tonally flexible as Juria and Chisa, they've been using this attribute to really punch up a lot of their harmonies and ad libs on EVERY song. Its incredible to hear it more showcased here) all the way to just seeing the physical ways the girl's sing... its just... incredible tbh. Yall are so right, XG manages to just take you someplace else and its so emotionally overwhelming that I've never been able to pinpoint what the feeling is like except "I am so happy"
