'Royals' Queen out-shined by PTX cover

I know you’ve all heard it.  The catchiest song on the charts and probably playing on the radio as we speak. ROYALS! Lorde is seriously hitting home in all of our lower/middle class hearts.  Admit it, you hear the lyrics and your all “oh. em. gee. it’s like she’s speaking to my soul” okay maybe not that serious.. But you know you sing along!  
ANYWAY. Truth is, this catchy chart topper has hit its peak and I’m pretty sure there’s a covered version thats about to rise up and out-shine the Royals Queen herself. 
Pentatonix also known as PTX is an a cappella group that’s on the rise to becoming grammy award winners (I can feel it in my bones!).  These five incredibly talented artists made their debut on The Sing Off (may it rest in peace..) in 2011.  Winning over the hearts of people everywhere with their mind-blowing arrangements and incredible charm– PTX, of course, the took the cake and were the champs that season.  Since their victory they have released an album, PTX Volume 1, and are on the way to releasing Volume 2.  In between their busy schedules they find time to arrange covers and medleys of our favorite songs for all of their so-called “pentaholics” (I am definitely one of them).  Recently, they released a stellar cover of Royals and everyone MUST hear it.  Led by vocalist Mitch, and accompanied with some killer back ups by Scott, Kirstie, Avi, and Kevin this song (in my humble opinion) beats the original any day.
