A Pentatonix Christmas Album Review

Since Pentatonix first hit the musical scene on the show, The Sing Off, I have been a huge fan of their work. This acapella group has transformed not only just acapella music, but music in general. Their sound is so iconic and so unique to their group. The fact that they are able to create masterpieces of songs with only five voices astounds me every single time I listen to their music.

Previous to their newest album release, Pentatonix released their Christmas album, That's Christmas To Me, in 2014, and released a Deluxe Album with the same name in 2015. When fans, such as myself, heard that Pentatonix was releasing a new Christmas album in 2016, we were all wondering if their sound would be different, what songs they would produce and if this album would be better or worse than their first album.

Well, I am here to answer all of these questions for you! On October 21, 2016, Pentatonix released their newest Christmas Album, A Pentatonix Christmas. This album is so incredibly fantastic, it is hard to put into words. The groups sound as a whole is so much more united and together than it ever has been before. Their harmonies on songs and the arrangements of both classic and pop oriented Christmas songs are just exquisite.

In this album, as in every album or song Pentatonix produces, the group put their spin on classic Christmas and more uptempo pop Christmas selections. For example, for the song "White Christmas," the group starts the song off in the classical tone that the original is in. Then, they transform it into a jazzy, free-flowing selection! One of my favorite selections from this album is "Hallelujah", which is the single they also released a music video with. This song is so stripped down and I love how in this song and the album as a whole, all of the artists are featured in solo parts in an equal amount. Every single member of this group is so talented and their voices blend perfectly together.

So overall, would I recommend you buy or stream this album? ABSOLUTELY! This album will give you all the feels and get you into the Christmas spirit most importantly!

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good. Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.
