Pentatonix formed in 2011 and came to prominence the same year by winning the third season of "The Sing-Off" on NBC, their victory earning them $200,000 and a recording contract with Sony. Their debut EP "PTX, Volume 1" was released in 2012, followed by "PTXmas" the same year, with their third release "PTX, Vol. II", debuting at number 1 on Billboard's Independent Albums chart in 2013. 2014 saw the release of "PTX, Vol. III", and their two first full-length albums "PTX, Vols. 1 & 2" (a compilation of Vol. 1 and Vol. II) and "That's Christmas to Me". Their second holiday release, That's Christmas to Me, with the album certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), platinum on December 24, 2014, and double platinum on February 11, 2016, becoming the highest-charting holiday album by a group since 1962, and the fourth-best-selling album in the United States in 2014. The following year, Pentatonix released their album, their first consisting mostly of original material, which debuted atop the US Billboard 200 chart for the first time in their career, followed by a third Christmas album, A Pentatonix Christmas, in 2016, and a new EP, PTX, Vol. IV – Classics, the following year. In May 2017, Kaplan announced that he would leave Pentatonix due to his inability to keep up with the touring demands of the group; he left after the completion of the tour in September, and was replaced by Matt Sallee the following month.
Pentatonix has won three Grammy Awards: they were the first a cappella act to win Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella, doing so in 2015 and 2016, and Best Country Duo/Group Performance in 2017.
Pentatonix started their popular YouTube channel back in 2012 to promote themselves after the Sing-Off (Season 3, 2011) when they were dropped by their record label, according to a recent November 2014 interview. They also made effective use of social media to interact with their fan base. They have eclipsed almost 15 million subscribers and more than 2.7 billion cumulative views. Their music video for "Daft Punk" recently surpassed 273 million views.

Pentatonix Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My one solution is my queen 'cause she stays strong
Yeah, yeah
She is always in my corner right there when I want her
All these other girls are tempting but
I'm empty when you're gone and they say
"Do you think I'm pretty?"
"Do I make you feel like cheatin'?"
I'm like, "No not really" 'cause, ooh
I think that I found myself a cheerleader
She is always right there when I need her
Ooh, I think that I found myself a cheerleader
She is always right there when I need her, ooh
Well she walks like a model
She grants my wishes like a genie in a bottle, saying, "Yeah, yeah"
I'm a wizard of love and I got the magic wand
All these other girls are tempting but I'm empty when you're gone
"Do you need me?"
"Tell me, do you think I'm pretty?"
"Do I make you feel like cheatin'?"
I'm like, "No not really" 'cause, ooh
I think that I found myself a cheerleader
She is always right there when I need her
Ooh, I think that I found myself a cheerleader
She is always right there when I need her, mm yeah
She gives me love and affection
Baby, did I mention, gives me love and affection

In "Cheerleader" by Pentatonix, the singer expresses his love and devotion to his girlfriend who is always there for him, supporting him and providing him with love and affection. He refers to her as his cheerleader, metaphorically highlighting how she brings positivity into his life, lifts his spirits, and motivates him to become a better person. He acknowledges the existence of other girls besides his girlfriend who may tempt him, asking him if he needs them or if they are pretty, but he is firm in his response that he does not, as he has already found his queen.
The lyrics also contain several playful references to magic and fantasy, with the singer describing his girlfriend as a genie in a bottle, granting his wishes, and himself as a wizard of love with a magic wand. These references further emphasize the idea of the singer's girlfriend being a positive source of energy in his life, providing him with an almost magical kind of support and love.
Overall, "Cheerleader" celebrates the strength of a healthy relationship and the importance of having someone who is always there for you, cheering you on and providing you with love and affection when you need it most.
