- In this video, I react for the first time to Voiceplay performing a cover of Miracle of Sound - Valhalla Calling. In this video, I analyse Voiceplay's unbelievable vocal performance, explain and demonstrate their vocal techniques, vocal arrangement techniques and I'll tell you what I think made it so great.
I also used some AMAZING Austrian Audio Headphones that I absolutely recommend ➡️ austrian.audio...
You can find them on TH-cam too: @AustrianAudioVideos

Thank you SO MUCH for the incredible support! ✨
Hallo beauty , can you react to voiceplay´s Halo theme . That was be nice i subscribe now .
Seeing as you like bass voices you really need to check out the the Bass Gang. “Centuries “ is my favorite with “Hooked on a feeling” with Tim Foust.
All 4 members also do solo covers. Peter Barber does an amazing cover of Enemy and I know Halloween is over but if you’re in the mood for a good old fashioned fun time watch Marwan Ayman doing This is Halloween in 30 styles. And he’s only 21 in this video. 🙀
If you want to see more of Geoff’s range check out “Shenandoah’
You need to do a reaction to Wardruna singing "Helvegen" featuring Aurora. Definitly. Viking music!
The beatboxer (Layne) also writes/adapts/arranges the majority of their work, although Geoff also does some of it. Geoff was the original beatboxer for VoicePlay but persuaded Layne to have a go, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Lol! Fun fact: when they shot this, the studio they were filming at had the air conditioning broken. According to Geoff, he said that it was about 90 degrees Fahrenheit with 100% humidity. So they were all dying of heat that day but the video is spectacular.
Just Love
Your reactions lily FrancesfromScotlandxx
If I'm remembering what I read correctly, they all needed to rest for a couple of days after they wrapped up the recording session. Geoff spent five+
hours in a separate
studio laying down all his
bass tracks for this.
It's amazing to me how much physical effort goes into one of these productions .
If they did this when they were suffering from heat exhaustion, imagine if it had been a comfy 70 degrees in the studio.
hey who knows, maybe the sweat makes it more realistic looking so.
Thank you for the facts and numbers.love their music but facts that fill out the story aere nice for someone like me.PhD physics
"Because if it was freezing enough to warrant wearing a full bear, why would you have your arms out?" This is the kind of insightful analysis we've come to expect from Lolli.
Because you need your sword and shield arms ready for fighting. Nothing in the way of saving your life and killing the enemy.
@@coletedeux Excellent point!
@@coletedeux was about to say this lol
because he already has bare arms!
@@coletedeux I would have to disagree. Unprotected skin is problematic, both in weather conditions warranting wearing a full bear and when fighting 😁
The tenor is Eliezer, so pronounced ellie for short. He is a rocking beast - This is WAR is my favorite moment in this one. Also, I have to remind myself every time that J did not crash through a huge, creaky, wooden door, that was all Layne!!
I am always here for Voiceplay and Geoff!
First, it’s always hilarious watching you turn into a giggle-box when Geoff goes subterranean! 🤣 That by itself is worth the reaction right there. Then, your expression was priceless when Cesar unleashed the inner berserker *we never knew he had*. The first couple times I watched this the only thing I could think was “Dude, where the hell did THAT come from?!?!?” And c’mon, Eli up in Whitney territory for that whole passage??? I mean I knew it was beastly, but when you played the clips my jaw hit the floor all over again.
I was less worried about where it came from and more worried about can we have more please?
Giggle-box 😆
I love how you took the time to really demonstrate just HOW awesome Eli's high notes are. I never had it pointed out that way, before, and it was just WOW. :)
Eli is a rock god … just accept it.
Although I’m always happy when reactors love Geoff, I’m so happy to hear you give the other singers their due. They are all great. But I hope next time you’ll give a little love to Layne. He not only did the arrangement for this one, but kept everything moving with his beat boxing and special effects.
One small correction - this wasn’t done with green screen. Eli created the environment in Unreal Engines. It was played on huge LCD screens that they performed in front of.
She actually did give love to Layne. She didn't say his name but she did say that 'the beat is the scaffolding that holds the song together' which is giving credit to Layne's awesome beatboxing.
Lolli, I just want to say I love your videos. You are so funky real and your enthusiasm is mesmerizing. Keep doing what do girl. Love to ya.
I can’t get over how amazing you dissect every song you react to , it’s like I’m discovering new treasure every time I watch a video of yours
Absolutely agreed! This is a fantastic analysis once again, and actively useful to me as someone who wants to improve his singing.
meh, I can't understand how she can actually enjoy a first viewing piece by piece dissecting it like that. You'd think she'd watch the video first and enjoy the music for what it is... THEN go back and break it down.
@@Sadarsa no, I can't uderstand how anyone does that either. But I like the result!
@@Sadarsa She is breaking down the musical aspects of music. She isn't reviewing it. There is a difference there. Hopefully, people actually watch the original songs before they watch Reactions.
Love the addition of the lady belter clips to showcase Eli belts.
And discussion of Geoff we never get tired of.
More acapella train. Choo Choo
“You can’t dress up a cello in a suit of armor and a fur rug.” Best reaction line ever!! 😂😂😂
I kindly request a timestamp
18:48 it's at 18:48 past self
While Voiceplay keeps raising the acapella bar, your willingness, and ability, to explain, demonstrate and imitate what is happening, is doing the same for reactions.
I love that gave so much (deserved) praise to the arrangement. The arranger, in this case, was Layne Stein (the beatboxer), himself. So it makes sense that he would be especially adept at shifting the rhythm around J.'s rap section.
Fairy Voice Mother, I have great news. I’m the subscriber who lost her voice and could not sing a note on pitch or in more than one octave. I’ve had a miraculous turn around in my health and my voice is coming back. I sang two full octaves today on pitch. Thank you for encouraging me not to give up.
Congratulations! I, too, have had voice issues caused by cancer drugs the last few years. And I've sung all my life, so it's been difficult. Hope I can come back like you did!
Wonderful! All the best to you and continued healing 🙏🏻✨✨🫶🏻
Omg.. you're just my favorite!! Hahaha I love how you collapse into giggling fits and enjoy the full emotional experience of the music and then in the next breath give amazing technical breakdowns and WOW, didn't realize Eli (pronounced Ellie) was singing that high!! Goodness!! Thanks for demonstrating it in such a salient way -- love your vidoes!! Thanks for all the joy and expertise and beauty you bring to the world -- and my day!! :)
I’m so happy Eli blew your mind 😁 your videos have so much wonderful info about technique and you perfectly quantified why that verse was 🔥🔥🔥
So glad you're doing VoicePlay again! (Wish you'd do more... Golden Hour is wonderful. ) This one has broken some reactors! As for sweating... they truly were! The AC in the studio was out, and they had to film without it!
Soon as I saw this I was eager to hear your thoughts on Eli. While they are all phenomenal it's his voice that stands out for me on this track. Great song, great reaction as always. Also I love today's oracle card, being a fully fledged unicorn thats been flying the rainbow flag for many years I appreciate that. You do you! Xx
Eli is a Rock Star in this, Geoff goes to the depths or Hell, Cesear is amazing, J None spits out bars and Lane does things that shouldn't be possible with just your voice
I love your work (and it's pronounced L-E). I'm surprised you haven't done more of Voiceplay specifically: My mother told me, Hoist the colors , and Geoff Castelucci Misty mountains
you really know when you've been spoiled too much by Geoff's voice when you react to him doing a B0 and don't freak out, have to walk away for a second then triple check it on the piano lmao.
and yes it's pronounced Ellie 🙂
For sure. It’s almost hard to pick out in the beginning that he’s holding it for almost 15 seconds or so. I had to listen to it again when I picked out the bass. There’s so many layers. I listened to it so many times and picked up on new things. Until this video I never picked up on the B0 in the beginning coinciding with the first word being ships.
Even though I love Geoff, I really loooove Eli's rock god voice!! It almost makes me cry! 💜🤘
Take one Rock God, add one Bass God, stir in one Beat God and a splash of Rap God, season liberally with a pure berserker, bake at 90 degrees in 100% humidity for hours, and you get a Divine masterpiece!
Hi Lolli! FYI - this wasn't done with 'green screen', like MMTM was, but filmed in a VR studio with huge LED screen walls, so we see what they saw - Eli did amazing work, still creating all the 3D backgrounds in Unreal Engine (gaming software) - also J's plane from Washington to Orlando was 3 hours late, so that may explain the way he joined them part way through! Definately my favorite VP release so far - it seems to have broken sooo many other reactors! 😄
I love ELI. I believe his rock God nickname is very fitting. I absolutely love your analysis of all of the songs you do. You are able to break all of the technique down flawlessly. Coincidentally, you have one of the most fantastic voices I have heard in your own right. Thank you for the reactions you do. We also need more of your originals and covers. Lovely, sheer beauty!
Eli has the feel of a true skald belting out the sagas to incite the warriors to battle. Then we get Cesar belting which is an unusual departure from his usual softer sound. I'm always bown away by each VP song showing a little something new from at least one of them. And I would love to see J None as Jefferson in a production of Hamilton.
Omg. He probably would have a blast doing it, too. Diggs *cemented* that role, but fantastic, expressive rappers/singers can step into those shoes. J None would be amazing! Not sure if you knew it, but DeeJay Young is currently Killing it as Burr/Hamilton on one of the current tours.
I love VoicePlay so much! Their arrangements are beyond incredible and I get a kick out of your enthusiastic analysis. You are like a kid in a candy store; so many treats, so little time. I would love to have you react to Geoff singing his cover of Bill Wither's, Ain't No Sunshine. Trust me, you will love his range and approach. Satisfaction guaranteed! Thank you Lolli 😄❤
No green screen used here. Just really big screens actually showing the backdrop behind them.
Another masterclass! Eli is on another level, Geoff with his B0's, Caesar with his grit, Layne as usual off the bloody chart and J None just bloody amazing! Every time I see one of their productions I would think: "This is it, it can't get better".... Yeah right. Can you imagine what will be next??? Thank you again for your excellent review! Don't stop please!
First time commenting, long time subscriber. I love your reaction when you first hear Geoff. 😁 I am always blown away by Eli’s (It is pronounced Ellie) crazy range, but what you did, finding those songs and playing them back and forth?! What a great way to put it in perspective!
This is the first premier I was able to make it to, like always it was fantastic! Would love to see you react to Golden Hour by VoicePlay. You would have a blast analyzing that one 🙂
I was really looking forward to this one from you! Amazing as always, voiceplay just keeps getting better and better 😂
😅Hands down the best review ever. You are hilarious
I love this so much!
Every moment of this video is suffused with your sheer joy in music! Plus, your commentary - as always - gave me insights into the performance that I would not have reached without you.
This is not the first reaction to VoicePlay's Valhalla Calling that I've watched. But it has been the most fun.
I believe, BTW, that Geoff's sustained low B was a B0 in subharmonic.
Vikings were sailor / warriors, so it absolutely would stand to reason that JNone means it, as he left VoicePlay to Join the U.S. Navy thus becoming a Sailor / Warrior himself. :)
You know I love all your breakdowns! This one is in my top three easy. Everything from “they must be sweatingtheir titties off” to “you can’t dress up a cello in a suit of armor and a rug”. You’re just great!
I don't know which hits me harder, Geoff's Bass God goodness, or Eli's Rock God Powerhouse!
What a beautiful reaction/analysis. I really enjoyed it. And those Geoff giggles you got! So cute! 😁 Thank you so much.
I'll never get tired of your interesting and educational explanations of the human voice and your quirky humor while doing so. However, the most interesting thing I noticed in this video is YOUR MUSHROOM EARRINGS. I love em. I've never in my life seen anyone wear mushroom earrings before. Good move. Let me guess. One side makes you bigger and the other side makes you smaller, right? Right, Alice?
Gotta practice 40/hrs a day 😁😁
My favorite focus on Eli’s high parts that I’ve heard. Lots of people comment on it but your examples make it so much clearer. So cool!!!
the game this is based on is Assassin's Creed: Valhalla
I've been coming back to my fav' reactors on this song... I LOVE your gleeful laugh with Geoff's booming bass down to B-0. our excitation and your ability to explain musical concepts is really impressive. Fantastic in-depth analysis! Glad I listened again!!!
Vou sugerir "Hoist the colours". É uma performance excelente pra admirar o quão técnica e versátil é a voz do Eli. Todas as vezes em que ouço essa música sinto que Eli nasceu pra ser cantor de heavy metal mas preferiu não se limitar a um estilo só.
Lol

Can you make my dreams come true and react to the amazing live performance of "Lawrence - Don't Lose Sight (Acoustic)" which was considered for a Grammy since I last asked?
If it doesn't give you goosebumps in the first 15 seconds, I'll give you $5,000 from the next bank robbery I pull off successfully.
I'm convinced nobody will appreciate or analyze it like you can. Thanks! 🙏
Miracle of Sound is fantastic. He's been actively making music for 10+ years.
Yeah. I've been listening to Gavin since his 2nd album came out. Love his music.
The duet with Peyton is still my favorite version of this song. He brings the perfect amount of grit to balance with Gavin's smoother sound. Also Gavin's original sound design and arrangement is so well done, just *chef's kiss*
Gav is so incredible.
I love your breakdowns, I have been learning a lot from your analysis. The b zero from Geoff in beginning, during rapping, and at the end, is extremely difficult! I have twice hit g0 but in chest, his subs are several notes below any one else I have heard! Another brilliant arrangement and J, my goodness! Low bass Kenneth
sorry to hijack this videos comments for a beatbox request, but if by any chance you have not heared Ya Na Ha - Free your life. I cannot stress as to how incredible this is.
( YA NA HA - GBB23: World League Crew Wildcard | Free your life | #GBB23 the whole title ).
It is imo one of the best crew things in the beatbox scene right now. Obviously i wouldnt mind a reaction on it, but honestly i just want to bring it to your attention
1:42 Is that seriously all that's making you hot?
Judging by your reaction to Geoff's voice, I'm suspecting not.
You have a high musical IQ and i actually discover new stuff through your analysis that actually makes so much sense. Great work
12:33 Funny you mention the green screen.
There isn't any.
They went to some studio or other (I forget the name) and performed in front of a massive LED screen. All the backgrounds are made by Cesar in a videogame-software.
Welp, as to the fur… Florida is alas not really a fur friendly climate lol, worse than that I’ve heard the a/c was broken when they filmed this, so they really did sweat their titties off lol…. Addendum- you blew my frickin mind with the Whitney Houston comparison, I knew it was high but absolutely did not think it was THAT high, good lord
Fun fact: Geoff hits a Subharmonic B0 under J Nones me at the beginning. Also it is actually VR not a greenscreen
here's a fun little tidbit, in the nordics and england during the viking age, there was a thing called Flyting, which was in the most basic sense, rap battles, flyting was an exchange of verbal abuse between 2 highly competent individuals, so in a way, these people practicing this, were essentionally rappers
Please react to Harry Mack!! not for his vocal range but because the way his brain works makes him a musical genius!!!
Plus the distortion Eli puts in that spot…crazy
You won me over with your demonstration of Ellie's (L-ee) staggering upper range, What a great idea!! I already knew Voice Play AND this arrangement. I was curious what your reaction(s) would be. Truly an enlightening AND fun reaction to watch. LOVE your gleeful laugh with Geoff's basement thunder. As I said, you finally won me over. Liked AND subscribed!
my mans is inventing new notes with that B0... I mean, technically there is a B0 on a grand piano and on a 5-string extended range bass guitar, but holy shit
Bare arms, I used to ice climb in shorts and short sleeves, allows range of motion and work keeps you warm. Plus you do get used to it.
I believe in one of Geoff's videos he referred to that 'crackling' you speak of as 'Vocal frying" a common technic for bass singers apparently.
Holy crap! You saying Eli was up there with Whitney?!!!! I knew he was high but dang!
Geoff holds that B0 at the beginning for 15 seconds!
They shot this on a day when it was hot and the air conditioner was broken.
I love how this song immediately caught my attention within the first couple of seconds. Within 30 seconds I was totally captured, absorbed in the soundscape.
This song really needs to be listened to with headphones. I actually bought a pair specifically for this song (I was listening with a crummy iPad speaker).
Brilliant arrangement, wonderful performances and of course our wonderful Fairy Voice Mother bringing it all together with insightful analysis and an energetic, gleeful reaction of pure joy. When she reacts to Geoff’s first unreal subharmonic her laugh invariably makes me laugh. Every. Single. Time. The woman has a gift lol
It’s amazing how menacing Geoff can look in his roles with makeup. He’s such a chill guy irl and in interviews, you’d never guess he could act like such a bad guy.
“Sweating their titties off” no that’s just Geoff’s low bass. 😆
Oh Lolli, Vikings can withstand the coldest of winter and the hottest the summer can deliver. So the bearskin is no problem 😉
Also, “Plosive” is my newest favourite word.
Please check voiceplay in the air tonight please please 🥺🥺
The stank-face is STRONG with this one... 😂 Knew you'd enjoy it!
Amazing video as always. I BLOODY LOVE acapella done right and not too cheesy and this was awesome. Never heard these guys before. Your insight is second to none as usual. And i love you have some great audio production knowledge as well! Stop being so bloody awesome!
That's an A0 that he's singing after he sings "Valhalla calling" then drops to that uuuu
I would love beyond measure to see you react to/do analysis of Voiceplay's In the Hall of the Mountain King - it's right up your alley!
I would love to hear what you would have to say about The Wicked Medley from Voiceplay
Surprised you didn't say it looked unbearable.
🤨🤣
Wonderful romp as usual, thanks so much for the entertainment plus excellent technical dissection.
React to AVENGED SEVENFOLD!!!
5 octaves, of which Geoff can probably cover by himself.
I dont know how you do what you do but I love watching you do it.
I identify myself as a wrench.
I would love you react to both of the Ding Dong covers with Lauren Paley (Voiceplay and The Bass Gang). Seriously SHE is impressive, enough that the bass notes from Geoff and TBG will just be comparably good to her. Eargasm incoming with both renditions I promise
all voice playback reactions are actually reactions to jeff
I love that edit you did featuring Eli. Bravo. 😂
I really enjoyed this. I hope that you do more VoicePlay.
Eli is said like jelly without the J. 😊
Sure enjoyed your explanations - feel like I learned a lot! Your talking of cellos made me think of a phrase one of my reactors used for Geoff. Geoff is a panther purring inside a cello. Like that one.
"it's not as easy as they make it look"- there's a wonderful Italian word "sprezzatura" which means "working hard to create the impression of effortlessness."
Eli rhymes with jelly.
Fairy Voice Mother analyzing Voiceplay is always properly fun. The enthusiasm and energy is *chef's kiss*
Man that intro is just ❤
Your music knowledge and wisdom is amazing 😱😁👍 and you have no idea how enjoying is watching you enjoying the music 😍. Still waitng for " We don't talk about Bruno", "Hoist the colours" and "Little Mermeid medley" by VoicePlay.
0:50 - You HAVE to be impressed at how she reacts THE SAME FUCKING WAY the girl in Charismatic Voice does to Voiceplay 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
The black guy is so not-viking (also musically)... :-D .
Really, some of the singers sound like they have no balls at all... so not-viking-like... The rap part must be a joke, given the context.
React to Gene Shinozaki’s GBB 2021 wildcard Metamorphosis. It’s a musical masterpiece
Your speaking voice is english..old school.butbyour singing is world wide. What happened???
I come to this channel for one reason. The Geoff Giggles and the note takedowns. ...
Ok, I come to this channel for two reasons. The Geoff Giggles and the note takedowns and the spit-takes (like with the Jinjer Pisces reaction). ...
Ok, I come to this channel for three reasons. The Geoff Giggles and the note takedowns and the spit-takes (like with the Jinjer Pisces reaction) and the sheer enjoyment you exude watching great music unfold before your eyes. ...
Amongst the many reasons I come to this channel... :P
Perfection. As usual. My ONLY complaint that I've ever had, in watching any of your reaction videos, is that you haven't reacted to every single one of my favorite songs.
* pouts *
But, since I'm a boomer, I like many genres of music and artists including Ludacris, Outkast, Johnny Cash, Tom T Hall, Metallica, System of a Down, John Denver, Peter Paul & Mary, acapella (especially Voiceplay, Pentatonix, and Home Free), Roberta Flack, Marvin Gaye, Brenda Lee, the Jackson 5, Moody Blues, and many many others. Alas, I must then go away torn at the soul at not hearing your takes. :P
Simply put, your channel is phenomenal and you are a wonder to watch. Keep up the great videos!
I love your reactions and analysis so much. You are just an absolute pleasure to watch because of the joy and passion you bring to it. 💕
Lolli, speaking of the voice modes that you were... would subharmonics, vocalized Chest Bass, etc... would you consider those negative modes -1, -2, etc... or would you frame them with another convention?
Whats with your shiny face today ??
When you realise that Geoff is lower in tone and key than the example of a Ship Bellowing... I love your breakdown of all of this! I appreciate your knowledge and wisdom! :D x
Now that we've done some pop-accapella viking stuff.... Is it Heilung time? Guys, I think it's Heilung time! Anything from LIFA works, really.
Love how you're quirky as fuck but also know what you're talking about. You should do a song by Falling in Reverse. I'd recommend Popular Monster, Zombified, Voice in my Head, and Watch the World Burn... in that order. If you only do one, definitely Watch the World Burn. Subscribed!
Yay we’re here!!!!
Your voice is awesome 👌 and I love your enthusiasm.

I can't imagine how much you would love Voiceplay's In the Hall of the Mountain King! I love your reactions and expert break downs and I'm glad I've found your videos:)
Stumbled across your channel only a week ago - great stuff.
Also first time seeing this video by Voiceplay. I've only seen the "original" before, and I wandered there from the game Valheim (even though this is actually from another game).
And I was TOTALLY not expecting the rap.
