Thanks for watching everyone! Please like if you enjoyed, and check out some of my other vids! :) New series coming soon and THANK YOU for helping me get closer to 3K subs! 😆💙
Please I beg you please do a reaction video of Voice Plays version of The Dragonborn Comes , also Halo, the theme song from the Halo game. Wait for the tribute Scott Porter gives at the end. Thank you.
This was a layne arrangement, he tends to put the Geoff drops in. Before his last low note you can see layne has a slight smile as he knows what's about to happen
I love watching the byplay between Geoff and Layne in Warriors. It's really subtle but when Geoff hits that really low note Layne gives him a side eye like "still ok over there buddy" and Geoff looks back over at him like "jerk!". LOL
Typically if Geoff is featured, Layne did the arrangement. Not always, but more often than not. Geoff said it is because Layne forces him into lower and lower notes. If Eli gets a chance to show off his rock Voice, it is usually a Geoff arrangement. They are both amazing.
One things you'll learn is that they all have INSANE ranges. Geoff, Layne and Eli can all hit notes from the first to the fifth octave relatively easily. Absolutely crazy.
Layne has actually hit an A0, one note lower than Geoff. He did it as an inhale note at the very end of Sh-Boom when he did the winding down sound effect.
VoicePlay was formed back in 1997, under the name 42five (four-to-five). At first, Layne was the baritone, but he became the beatboxer from 2003, when Scott Porter left the group to pursue his acting career. Ashley has a beautiful voice, and her riffs are up there with Eli's riffs and runs! I believe she is into musical theatre, so she won't be joining VP, at least not now. This is some kind of a mashup between Fiddler on the Roof and Gwen Stefani's "Rich Girl". I love this version, and mostly everything VoicePlay does! 💯🤯🔥💗
Love it! This was actually the first song with Cesar as an official member. Prior to this he was in “We’re good”, “Butter” and their minis but as a featured artist. Layne was originally their baritone. To see their original beatboxer, Scott Porter (now an actor), react to Halo. And for more of Layne singing, True colours is soooo beautiful!!
Before reacting to Halo make sure that you have at least two things to throw... And please watch all the way to the end, after the song ends they have a little tribute.
I just love Layne's voice. Geoff said when Earl left the group and they did Heart of Life they decided to dub in the fifth part with one of them. All the amazing background runs, riffs and harmonies are all Layne in addition to the main part he sang. His voice is like velvet so when he did that "hello, Clarice" in the horror medley short it shocked the poo outta me! Gave me the serious goosebumps. LOL
I love this one because it shows off their flexibility with their voices. Those runs…wow!!! Ashley was introduced to VoicePlay through another VoicePlay guest artist, DeeJay Young. You should hear him in “Bang”, “Your My Best Friend”, and “Man In The Mirror”. These videos have sets but are not costumed. Thanks for your reaction
For a change of pace - listen to their cover of Eleanor Rigby. It was beautifully arranged by Eli. I think he also did a short a few years ago... you'll rarely see him arranging, but if this is an indicator, it's our loss that he doesn't do more. It's not musical theater, but the song carries it's own dramatic weight which they lean into.
The beatboxer also has a solo in their 'Little Mermaid Medley Feat. Rachel Potter' video. He does an _amazing_ performance as the cook that loves little fish. His solo is short but awesome.
Layne did the arrangement, he'd been working on it for 5 years or so according to a comment from his wife Cindy. And Geoff had been working on Wicked for quite a while too. So both the arrangers have major works out this year. Both arrangers know the group voices so well, and how to write parts that showcase each member in turn. Amazing to have two great arrangers in the same group. As for Geoff's run at the end where he went high, then low--Layne wrote the part, knowing that Geoff would figure out how to sing it. Look at the smile on Layne, when Geoff nails it. Anyone know if there is another Christmas release coming from Voice Play?
I’m hoping so much for a Christmas song from VoicePlay but haven’t seen anything announced yet. I had hoped to see something on Patreon today but there wasn’t yet.
Ashley Diane is a friend of Cesar de la Rosa and sings with a jazz group. I'd say HALO and Friends on the Other Side - Geoff hits B0 in HALO and J None, former baritone now in the US Navy, came back on leave to take the lead in Friends, their Halloween song.
They all have a wide range. And I've seen Geoff do a bit of beat boxing on occasion - plus both Layne and Geoff do almost all of the arrangements. I know Eli arranged one - Eleanor Rigby. So much fun, aren't they? I loved the film so much and this took time to grow on me, but now I love it.
You'll get to hear Layne doing awesome character voices in Little Mermaid, The Grinch, and the Moana Medley. I can't remember the song, but one of their much older ones has him rapping at high speed and it's so good. (EDIT: it's I Knew You Were Trouble with Rachel Potter) He also has an amazing bit in My Shot. I knew Ashley's run would get a Biscuit--it's just wow.
This is one of my all-time favourite songs, this rendition that is. So much fun and there's so many little "surprises" going on. I just always feel that I want more Eli. Always. Thanks for the reaction! 🥰🙏 Tim Foust dropped his very first full-on solo acapella song and video yesterday. I'm in love. Will you be too? 🥰☺️😉
It's so fun to watch someone fall in love with Voiceplay. I remember when I first found them and it was just a pleasure diving into their catalog. I know they have been reacted to death, but you would really enjoy their Nightmare before Christmas songs, some of their most popular videos, for good reason. For a fun video, check out their Boy band in 5 minutes. There really isn't a bad song on their entire channel. The lineup may change, guest singers come and go, but the core 3 always make magic with anyone.
I enjoy your reactions so much! In this piece, I enjoyed the sly , I know what's coming look Layne gives Geoff as he is about to climb up to that high "wealthy", just before he drops into the subbasement. And before that, when Ashley does that amazing riff, the guys each give her a "what the heck was that" look which triggers the "What?" Please check out Queen in 5 minutes and Tennessee Whiskey. These both have members no longer with Voiceplay, but are excellent. And for Geoff solos try House of the Rising Sun and Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold. Be blessed!
Layne is the beatboxer This Arrangement - Layne Stein, Video - Layne Stein Costuming and Direction - Tony Wakim Former VP member, and Layne Stein Light design - Eli Jacobson and Layne Stein Audio Mix - Ed Boyer Production Manager - Kathy Castellucci
It took me a while to actually love this arrangement. I love the musical and I just couldn’t see anyone doing this song any differently than it was done in the musical. So it took a while but now it’s one of my favorites. I am a huge VoicePlay fan but I do enjoy the other two groups - just not as much. That said, check out Home Free Full of Cheer. A Christmas song with a twist. Usually their songs are too country for me (although they are very talented) but I really enjoyed this one. Although it isn’t musical theater, it has that theatricality and playfulness that draws me to VoicePlay.
They normally tell you who arranged the song in the description, Layne did this one you should check out some of there Disney melodies with Rachael Potter in them!
Really like this song. A Lot of fun. Show off...LOL. They are all amazing. Oh and there is a little something that just come out...Tim Foust with a song by himself...Tim Foust-Come Go With Me...several Tim's and so much fun. Not Christmas...but is very entertaining. It is part of an album that will be out in a bit. I'll wait. LOL Up to you.
Holy crap! How’d I miss this one??? Thanks for reacting! Now I have to go back and see the original!! Wowie wow WOW! And Layne did the arrangement (per comments below)?? Dang! Creative genius!
Also check out "Daddy Sang Base" very fun lol. Have not heard anything from them I don't love! They do have some beautiful Christmas stuff as well, but Halloween seems to be their holiday lol, Geoff's Monster Mash is awesome and "Headless Horseman" for another with the lead way down in the basement.
The old saying is " if you got it flaunt it " . Layne the beat boxer can sing almost as low as Geoff. Elei has an awesome range & can sing almost as low as Geoff as well. They sometimes undertone for Geoff while Geoff is singing base.
I know you are curious about who does alot of the arrangements, you can actually find it pretty easily in the descriptions of each of their videos. It'll have as many people credited as they can.
If you like Ashley Dianne's voice then please do a reaction video of Voice Plays version of "Frozen 2 Medley" ( Into The Unknown ) featuring : Adriana Arellano. She is 16 & her voice is amazing. The runs & high notes she hits are breathing.
That was fun! I said "show off" at the same place you did.😄 Have you heard Citizen Queen? They're an all-female acapella group put together by PTX's Scott and Avi. The bass and beatboxer (also a bass) are both women, and they're great. Please react to them.🙏
You want something creative please check out 'I Wonder As I Wander - Epic Version' by Simon Khorolskiy. He's a Russian American youtuber who has an 'Epic Version' series of songs on his channel. He also did a collab with Chris Rupp, formally of Home Free. He and Chris did an 'Epic' version of 'Poor Wayfaring Stranger' where he sings a couple verses of the song in Russian. I did not know I needed to hear Wayfaring Stranger in Russian until it happened, but now I know it was indeed something I needed.
He doesn't do as much, that is part of why he left Pentatonix, but what he does is very powerful. Although I do wish that he would show off his base more, since he is a professionally trained choir base.

I LOVE THOSE LOOKS!!! ❤❤❤❤ That little grin Layne gives is so cute!!!! ❤
This is a Layne arrangement. They typically trade off every other one.
Typically if Geoff is featured, Layne did the arrangement. Not always, but more often than not. Geoff said it is because Layne forces him into lower and lower notes. If Eli gets a chance to show off his rock Voice, it is usually a Geoff arrangement. They are both amazing.

Layne's arrangements feature Geoff a lot and Geoff's give a chance to Layne to shine.
I love how they mix the traditional version of this with a more pop one.
Yes! Exactly!
VoicePlay was formed back in 1997, under the name 42five (four-to-five). At first, Layne was the baritone, but he became the beatboxer from 2003, when Scott Porter left the group to pursue his acting career.

What I love about VoicePlay is the fact that I smile throughout most of the videos, they just fill me with joy...

@@candilunsford2878 I'm pretty sure they said Eli did both of the tenor parts on that.
@@leechowning2712 Note: Said tribute is connected to Boy Bands in 5 Minutes. Or would that be the other way round?
Oh, you need to do Queen in 5 Minutes and the Little Mermaid Medley... you will love them!

I think you’ll absolutely love when voiceplay sings “friends on the other side” it’s my favorite performance of them
For a change of pace - listen to their cover of Eleanor Rigby. It was beautifully arranged by Eli.

Eli arranged the “Doctor Who Theme” mini this year as well.
Eleanor Rigby was sooooo gorgeous. Touched my soul!!
Geoff and Laine do most of the arrangements. Can't wait to see more of your Voiceplay reactions.
The beatboxer also has a solo in their 'Little Mermaid Medley Feat. Rachel Potter' video. He does an _amazing_ performance as the cook that loves little fish. His solo is short but awesome.

@@veronicathunander4579 Thanks. Given the rotation, the next Voice Play song should be a Layne arrangement. Looking forward to it.
I don't even know how many times I've watched/listened to this and I've never noticed that syncopation you pointed out before! Thank you
Glad I could share something new with you! :)

Please react to the following VP songs:. Warriors, Queen in 5 Minutes, Friends on The Other Side, Trapped then Panic in the Disco.
This is still one of my favorite Voiceplay covers.
Layne (the beatboxer) arranged this one... Yes Geoff dose a lot of arranging but so dose Layne
Woo!!! So glad you liked this one. I thought it was such a creative arrangement ❤️
I agree!
I love Fiddler on the roof. They do such an amazing remake of this song. Sooo cool!!!
The pure joy on your face as you were watching is so much fun to watch.
This is one of my all-time favourite songs, this rendition that is. So much fun and there's so many little "surprises" going on. I just always feel that I want more Eli. Always.
Thanks for the reaction! 🥰🙏
Tim Foust dropped his very first full-on solo acapella song and video yesterday. I'm in love. Will you be too? 🥰☺️😉
one of the most friendly and sympathetic guys out there reacting :) keep going!

This is a wonderful upbeat arrangement to show off their talents.
This is literally the sixth time I heard someone say “whatchu mean what, you know what you did” lol
😂😂😂
I'm excited about this. This is my favourite VoicePlay song. 😍🙏
They normally tell you who arranged the song in the description, Layne did this one you should check out some of there Disney melodies with Rachael Potter in them!
worst part is, the more you listen to that run, the sicker it gets.
Really like this song. A Lot of fun. Show off...LOL. They are all amazing. Oh and there is a little something that just come out...Tim Foust with a song by himself...Tim Foust-Come Go With Me...several Tim's and so much fun. Not Christmas...but is very entertaining. It is part of an album that will be out in a bit. I'll wait. LOL Up to you.
They are quite aptly named; that was so playful!
Holy crap! How’d I miss this one??? Thanks for reacting! Now I have to go back and see the original!! Wowie wow WOW! And Layne did the arrangement (per comments below)?? Dang! Creative genius!
Thanks for watching!
they keep getting better and better ❤️🏴
So, this is amazing and the perfect use of all the voices and low bombs!
Also check out "Daddy Sang Base" very fun lol. Have not heard anything from them I don't love! They do have some beautiful Christmas stuff as well, but Halloween seems to be their holiday lol, Geoff's Monster Mash is awesome and "Headless Horseman" for another with the lead way down in the basement.
You are not the first vocal coach who said "You know exactly what you did" after that run.
Show off - exactly. They know they are amazing! Love that you loved it 🙌
The old saying is " if you got it flaunt it " . Layne the beat boxer can sing almost as low as Geoff. Elei has an awesome range & can sing almost as low as Geoff as well. They sometimes undertone for Geoff while Geoff is singing base.

Def wanna add him soon, so will check them out! Enjoy physics lol
He doesn't do as much, that is part of why he left Pentatonix, but what he does is very powerful. Although I do wish that he would show off his base more, since he is a professionally trained choir base.
Hey, Tim Foust just dropped a new solo video, "Come Go With Me". It's pretty good!
Geoff always has to flex just a bit
