These five friends from Arlington, Texas, have been blowing our minds with their A Capella style and it’s the same this time around, as Pentatonix cover “Say Something,” by A Great Big World and Christina Aguilera.

There’s one big difference from their norm in this song, though.

Usually, they don’t use any sort of instruments but this time beatboxer Kevin Olusola busts out a cello!

Pentatonic is a musical scale or mode with five notes per octave, so the perfect name for the group

The two-time Grammy-winning group broke onto the scene, winning the third season of the TV show the Sing Off in 2011. Most of their success since has come via social media. Pentatonix’s official YouTube channel is currently the 13th most subscribed music video channel with more than 10.5 million subscribers!

Pentatonix also had a cameo role in Pitch Perfect 2.

They were the Canadian team competing against the Barden Bellas.

“She Said Yes!”

The female voice of the group, Kirstin Maldonado, also just announced her engagement after her boyfriend got down on bended knee in Paris! Look at this Instagram post. He doesn’t seem romantic at all 😉

"My love, No words could begin to describe the feelings and impact you have had on my life over the past 2 and a half years, but I'll do my best. In august of 2013, I was blessed with the opportunity to meet you, the most incredible woman in the entire world. Since that very day not a moment has passed where you haven't consumed my entire being with your love, support, and friendship. What we have is special. It's something I will never take for granted — and although there have been countless times something has tried to get in our way and pull us apart, the only thing that matters is that we never listened. We are here, and each day we become closer, and what we have built together continues to grow stronger. You deserve nothing but the best, and no matter what life brings to us, I promise to give you nothing but my best. I want nothing more than to have you by my side for the rest of my life. Our life. Kirstin Taylor Maldonado, my darling, my treasure. Will you marry me?" ________________________________ Pictures by @paris_photographer
