What's that awesome sounding bass-reverb thing (I don't know how else to describe it) that keeps happening throughout the video? Not knowing is killing me! 😂
I had to listen to this about 10 times before I remembered how to talk. I got goosebumps when Geoff started out, then my hair stood on end when the language changed. I think everyone killed it! Geoff's arrangements are brilliant and keep getting more and more complex. I can't tell if he broke the B0 record, but holding those low notes for that long is just amazing. And Eli's and Omar's high Es were spot on. Fun fact: that mail shirt Cesar is wearing is real and weighs 20 pounds.
@@ShyAnn291 this is the translation Dragonborn, Dragonborn, by his honor is sworn, To keep evil forever at bay! And the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout, Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray!
I understand that the language used is Dovahzul ("Dragon-Voice"), the Dragon Language or Dragonish. Not being a gamer I know nothing about it myself but the words can be found online.
It's a fictional language that a good portion of the game's plot and gameplay is centered around. Dragons dragonborn (people born with the soul of a dragon) and a few people who spend years training can perform magic by speaking words of draconic. "fus ro dah" referenced in the video is the default "dragon shout" that the player, the world's only living long prophecied dragonborn learns first.
@@catwhowalksbyhimself Thank you. Yes I managed to find that much online :) And the game looks great but I don't have the necessary equipment to play it.
This is one of your reactions in which I totally agree with you on everything!: it is an epic arrangement, the voices of Omar and César merge very well (although I think Eli is also singing there), Eli's high notes and the end full of energy and emotion. I had never heard the song but, presented like this, I loved it.
You guys just make me so happy that I'm not the only one that stopped 20 or so seconds in. It's way too good to not hear some parts over again. Thanks for reaction. 😊❤
Great reaction! I too would love to know how they did that deep base reverby thing. It reverberates around in your chest and just makes you want to grab a weapon and step up to the line. Beautiful song!!
I can imagine. O so many decades ago, my street sister (miss you, Edie!) was deep into D&D and RenFaire. Coming from across the Bay she'd park at my house on the edge of the City and we'd take public transportation downtown. One day she send me out to the car to retrieve her forgotten chainmail shirt. Ignorant me reached in with one hand to grab it out of the trunk and nearly fell in. I was not ready for the weight of her real metal, hand made piece of armor.
You guys are so awesome! I love your reactions! Isn't this video amazing? They sing beautifully, of course, and I love their makeup and costuming as well 💕. Fantastic!
New subscriber! I have been binge watching your VP reactions and I absolutely love your reactions. You're so expressive and the genuine joy you two experience is so fun to watch

It looks like you guys are reacting to the preview version, so make sure you go back and watch the public release (especially the "Fus Ro Dah!" part) because they added in some extra effects ;)
Yes! I have seen the public release several times, so I didn’t even realize that the preview version we reacted didn’t have those VFX for Fus Ro Dah! 🤣
I know u sang this song before but I suggested it to Jeff hoping it would b just him but doing it with the rest of the gang I like it even better and glad yall love it to and ps ur welcome
Oh I shouldn't have watched this. Now I want to reinstall Skyrim, spend weeks modding it, then not playing again. Its time. This is the most Halo Ive heard Skyrim sound.
What's that awesome sounding bass-reverb thing (I don't know how else to describe it) that keeps happening throughout the video? Not knowing is killing me! 😂
It could ever be a either a growl slide down from Geoff or a kick drum sound from Layne with MASSIV reverb on it.
Same here. I've been wondering this for almost a week now. Need to ask it on their next ask me anything video
If I am correctly identifying what you are talking about, I think it's Geoff.
@@natebaker3672 Yeah, maybe we should! 😆
@@cynthiaross9438 I assumed it was Geoff too.
Nobody does the arrangements better than Geoff & Layne & nobody does it better than Voice Play.
They’re masters of a cappella music! 🤩
I know that Eli arranged their Eleanor Rigby and I believe it to be up there with the best. but not better. I don't know if he's done any more.

Nah, he hit a C1, just checked it with a piano app on my phone. That's 1 note above B0. still pretty low.
They really went all out on this video! 🤩
That opening is a G#1 to a C#1, a nice way to start.
The language is Dovahzul. What an epic song they created here! My chills won’t go away!
Same here! 🤯
Yeah, Draconic is the Dragonborn language from D&D.
The Dovahzul sequence was unreal. My hair stood on end when I realized what language they were singing in. Absolutely amazing.
And those harmonies too, weren’t they lovely? 🎶
Is it a language that’s in the game?
@@ShyAnn291 yeah it is
@@ShyAnn291 this is the translation
Dragonborn, Dragonborn, by his honor is sworn,

Yay!! So glad you jumped on this one straight away!! Love you guys ❤️
We try our best, thanks for watching! 😍
Skyrim fan here. Loved the reaction. 👍 And love the song too. Voiceplay is 💜
The way it ends, I’m all, “what happens next?” I want a whole movie of this! Loved watching the two of you hear it for the first time.

I'm just gob-smacked. I've watched it about 10X now, and am almost at the point of talking. Thanks for your reaction.

@@ZhenYaoYin Yes!!
Great reaction! I too would love to know how they did that deep base reverby thing. It reverberates around in your chest and just makes you want to grab a weapon and step up to the line. Beautiful song!!
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who’s so curious about what it was! 😆
I love the special effect at 3:17 the sound waves coming out of their mouths. Like casting a spell.
Yes! I have seen the video several times, so I didn’t even realize that the preview version we reacted didn’t have those VFX for Fus Ro Dah! 🤣
@@ZhenYaoYin Don't feel bad, you're not the only reactors that have missed it.
If you've ever played Skyrim it's the same visual effect for when you use the "Fus Ro Dah" shout. Pretty cool little reference from Voiceplay.
@@zithicus4762 It's their eye for the small details that make their videos so, so good.
This is an amazing video , Cesar's costume weighed 20Lbs so he had to lay down to take a break in between cuts

Dang that’s heavy!! 😱
those are definitely the words from the game
Fus ro dah! 😤
Yes They are singing in The Dragon Language that the composer of the Skyrim song made up in 24 hours
Thank you for putting words to my feelings...all I could do was yell lol.
It’s an appropriate song to yell at / along with! 🤣
Spectacular! Thank you for a heartfelt reaction.
Thanks for watching! 🤩
VoicePlay is my absolute favorite 😍
We love them too! ❤️
You guys are so awesome! I love your reactions! Isn't this video amazing? They sing beautifully, of course, and I love their makeup and costuming as well 💕. Fantastic!
They pulled out all the stops for this one! 🤩

This is a super delayed reply, but thanks for subbing! 😍
Absolutely EPIC!!
Yaaaaas 🙌
Carrie, you had the same physical reaction that I had to Cesar’s voice at the beginning. Scrumptious!
While we miss J.None, Cesar’s addition adds such an amazing layer to VoicePlay’s performances! We love him! 💕
You guys are so cute! I love your enthusiasm.
That opening is a G#1 to a C#1, a nice way to start.
At the start the first note is a subharmonic G#1 followed by a subharmonic C#1😀

Funnily enough, the first version(s) of “The Dragonborn Comes” I heard was hers! Took me a while to find an actual clip from the game 😄

Literally epic!
amazing
We totally agree! 💪
I think I might have identified which one of them is the Dragonborn >.
background was done in unreal engine
Great! 😁
The main melody is actually not originally from Skyrim, but from TES III Morrowind, and later IV Oblivion.
Ooh, thanks for the tidbit! I always associated that tune with Skyrim, good to know the difference 😄
That was an amazing video
True that, they were amazing! 👌
I know u sang this song before but I suggested it to Jeff hoping it would b just him but doing it with the rest of the gang I like it even better and glad yall love it to and ps ur welcome
LOL thanks!! Let’s try to pressure them to do more full length covers of video game music! 😂
I will try I am just surprised he even did my suggestion to him
Oh I shouldn't have watched this. Now I want to reinstall Skyrim, spend weeks modding it, then not playing again. Its time.
This is the most Halo Ive heard Skyrim sound.
I know, I feel the same about reinstalling it too! 😆
Hmm, the lowest note I heard was a Bb0. I may be wrong, since it was SO low.
The lowest note in this song was a C#1, which was Geoff's second note
@@huldradraco, I went back and listened... and you are correct. Those super low notes, it's hard to tell sometimes.
While editing, I would try and sing Geoff’s notes (usually 1 octave higher) and see what shows up on a tuner app 😛
Check out their My mother told me
Not Draconic. Dovahzul.
😆 Promo'SM!!!
