You’re not wrong Saucey, you haven’t reacted to Geoff’s Misty Mountains yet. You’ve done the Peter Hollens and Tim Foust one. You definitely need to do Geoff’s. In my opinion, it’s just as good as Peter and Tim’s, just in its own way. Also he has some instrumentation in his so it’s not entirely a cappella. I’ve also read in comments before that Geoff’s final note in his version is a nod to Tim’s Dragonbreath growl at the end of his and Peter’s version.
I feel like Hollens/Foust is the Dwarven Artist Troupe version, going from hall to hall, singing the most elaborate version for the connoseurs of Dwarven music, whereas Geoff’s version is the one we all sing together to, having another pint at the pub. I’m not going to say that either is better, they are just fit for different settings.
@@CuteHalo Exactly. Both are great covers/renditions, and each are unique in different ways. The tone and feeling that each one gives you is different enough that I can say they are equally my favorite cover for different reasons and different moods. I would be hard pressed to be able to choose a favorite artist at all between any of the major a cappella groups/soloists. I love all of them in different ways for different reasons.
This has been my favorite for a while now. I think "Ain't No Sunshine" has knocked it down a spot but it really depends on the day. Both are emotional and the way it's conveyed really connects for me with those two songs. It's funny, cause in this one it's his high range that gives me the feels but in "Ain't No Sunshine" it's the rumbly bass that does it. Either way, he's pretty damn good at getting his point across!
In an interview with the Charismatic Voice last summer, he said that this is his favourite, but apparently not others’ because it’s got the least amount of views of all his covers. I think it’s great! I think you might like his cover of “Blackbird” too! And I don’t remember if you’ve done “Shenandoah”?
From what I've been told on my listning to a capella journey he's said that he did Sheanandoah for hos wife, but that this song is the one specially for himself, the one he loves.
The thing I love about Geoff's voice is that he sounds like different people in the different ranges...and all good! But when he layers himself with the 4-5 Geoff arrangements, it doesn't sound like he's layering himself. It sounds like a group. And all the levels of range are good. Not strained, not "off." Just...all natural.
Love your enthusiasm! I'm a huge fan, so I resonate with everything you say. I'm sorry I don't remember off of the top if you've done Shenandoah yet, but the mid-range vocals are just to die for. Gloriously beautiful.
Shenandoah is my #1 favorite. He can belt it out at any range. Nick also check out Geoff doing a cover of the Beatles song "Blackbird". Another fine example of his range. As for VoicePlay, their cover of "Oogie Boogie Song" from The Nightmare Before Christmas is insane. Geoff showing off his insane range. 😳
Some singers manage to make us pay attention to the lyrics and melody of their songs, Geoff makes us feel the lyrics and melody with his versions. I really love him for that.❤
Really appreciate your r eactio9ns. Voiceplay and Geoff have so many layers to their talents and many folks miss them. Most music is a one time listen to "get it" but Voiceplay and Geoff are extremely complex and we can discover new layers with each listen.
Great reaction! I also really love this one. It is definitely top 1-2 for me. Also, totally agree that at this point Geoff’s high notes are more surprising than the super low drops. For me there is just something about the texture of Geoff’s voice that I really love
I don't know the details but I'm sure I read that this song means something special to him. Which is why he did it. I'm with you, I love this but Shenandoah is beautiful too. One of the patrons asked him which god his parents sacrificed to for him to be this talented. :) He keeps forgetting to ask them. lol. Have I told you lately how much I enjoy your reactions? I do, very much. You're such fun.
The more I hear him, the more I love him, honestly! Thanx for reacting to this. Even when I don't know a song that he's doing, I love it. I'm really old, so didn't ever hear this one before Geoff did it. Stay safe!
Believe me, you’d remember if you had done his Misty Mountains. Many reactors get most of the way through before they even realize that it’s all him, and not him and three other guys. I won’t compare his version to others that have done the same song, but I will say it’s good.
I'm totally with you....I think he is awesome and this is my favorite song of his also, although Ain't No Sunshine is a very close second. Great reaction!!!
I’m completely with you, this will always be a favorite of mine too. It’s so intimate and heartfelt. Though, this is the one song I can’t sing along with him. High notes wipe me out.
Added this to one of my play lists on Spotify while watching. AND like you I pick and choose the songs I'll listen to. Most of my play lists are made up from artists I find here. This was a beautiful vocal and he is so talented. I never would have listened to this if it weren't for Saucey Dad and Saucey Fam. Loved your reaction Thx Nick
I'm the same way about my playlist and songs. It's a big compliment I'd it's on there. My most listened on there is Geoff's The Rains of Castamere. It's my relaxation song. Pay down, put my headphones on high, phone on high,, captions off, loop on. Sing Geoff over and over for several hours continuous.
I somehow missed this song completely. He mentioned in the Patreon chat today that this is his favorite cover that he's done, so I went and watched it. Now I'm going down the reaction rabbit hole.
So true, this one will probably always be my favorite of his covers, because I can listen to it every day. Don't think I've ever skipped it when it turned up on my playlist. It got kicked from the throne three times so far (by God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Shenandoah and Ain't No Sunshine, which I listened to on repeat when they got released), but only for a few days or weeks max, then it climbed back on it. I just love when he uses his whole range in a song singing the main melody and not only in the background.
😂u make me giggle. This is one of only two solo one he did that you don’t see his beautiful face multiple times. The other one is a Hawaiian Christmas song featuring the American Sirens! That is beautiful too! Have u done his cover of Blackbird yet?
I wasn't sure about this one when I first heard it, I think because it was so different from everything else I'd seen and heard from Geoff. However, after a couple more listens, the beauty of the harmonies and the emotionality of it got into my soul and it became my favourite, though it's now tied for first place with Ain't No Sunshine!
I totally agree with you. This to me is his best work. And I really wish he would go away from the four Geoff thing for a while and cover some newer songs. This was amazing. When I first heard it I had the same expression you had.
I agree with the higher notes. They just hit differently. A,G and T are so much more than their low notes ( which I definitely appreciate). Blackbird cover is still my fave Geoff cover for this reason🙂
Can't wait for new one! Next week please. Cover of Elvis's "Way Down". Unfortunately, I have to miss livestream on Geoff's patreon this Saturday due to work. Hopefully catch VoicePlay livestream when it is out.
I don't think I'll say anything more about this arrangement that hasn't been said, so I'll just give you props for that Super Troopers reference you snuck in there. :)
I’m late to this but this one is also my favorite. I hate that it’s the least viewed one of his videos and that makes me sad cause it’s hands down the best one.
Love this version! I agree, his higher register is more impressive. Some of the low notes he hits in this song are unnecessary, the song stands on its own.
I so agree some of the sub-harmonic notes are NOT necessary. Just because you can doesn't mean you should . Sometimes less is more 🥰Love his upper register 💜
Hello sir, you have to check "Survivor: VoicePlay vs Home Free" and "Twenty One Pilots mashup" both of them are amazing And also are you interested in Arabic music? I'm Egyptian, so if you are interested, please tell me and I will send you a lot of recommendations
I could listen to Geoff all day. His voice is smooth as butter and sweet as caramel.
You’re not wrong Saucey, you haven’t reacted to Geoff’s Misty Mountains yet. You’ve done the Peter Hollens and Tim Foust one. You definitely need to do Geoff’s.

I love how he shows his range, but also showing his other skills, like playing the piano.
I was going to say the same thing 🤣🤣
I love the last little bit, where he goes from....on top of the roof....down through every floor, and ends in sub basement 3
This is still my favorite Geoff song. It's just so gosh darn pretty! Loved this reaction.
From what I've been told on my listning to a capella journey he's said that he did Sheanandoah for hos wife, but that this song is the one specially for himself, the one he loves.
One of my favorites by Geoff is Shenandoah. Take a look. You will not be disappointed.
I hope he checks out Blackbird too.
The thing I love about Geoff's voice is that he sounds like different people in the different ranges...and all good! But when he layers himself with the 4-5 Geoff arrangements, it doesn't sound like he's layering himself. It sounds like a group. And all the levels of range are good. Not strained, not "off."

Oh yeah, Geoff has impressive range! His high notes are just as impressive
Wow he's got great range!

Stay safe!
Have you reacted to Geoff doing The Beatles' 'Blackbird' ? It's a stunner
Believe me, you’d remember if you had done his Misty Mountains. Many reactors get most of the way through before they even realize that it’s all him, and not him and three other guys. I won’t compare his version to others that have done the same song, but I will say it’s good.
I'm totally with you....I think he is awesome and this is my favorite song of his also, although Ain't No Sunshine is a very close second. Great reaction!!!
Every song I hear is my favorite and on my play list!!
I’m completely with you, this will always be a favorite of mine too. It’s so intimate and heartfelt. Though, this is the one song I can’t sing along with him. High notes wipe me out.
This is one of my favorites too. So pretty.
I love this one if you want another simple just him in the piano you would’ve try Blackbird!
Added this to one of my play lists on Spotify while watching. AND like you I pick and choose the songs I'll listen to. Most of my play lists are made up from artists I find here. This was a beautiful vocal and he is so talented. I never would have listened to this if it weren't for Saucey Dad and Saucey Fam. Loved your reaction Thx Nick
dude...it always shocks me when.....as a tenor.....a Bass can go higher than me.....don't get me wrong....I absolutely love the lows.....
Geoff claims that he's a Baritone with a Bass range. But he has a 5 octave range, so there is that. Lol.
This is my favorite too!😍😍😍
He also did a cover of BlackBird
He has a range
I'm the same way about my playlist and songs. It's a big compliment I'd it's on there.

It's beautiful.

Ge is very inventive abd uses his sub harmonics better than anyone else I have heard lately
Can't wait for new one! Next week please. Cover of Elvis's "Way Down". Unfortunately, I have to miss livestream on Geoff's patreon this Saturday due to work. Hopefully catch VoicePlay livestream when it is out.
I think he said in one of the videos on his page that he has a 4 octave range. Where he can take his voice is so amazing to witness!
I think he sells himself short as far as his range. So self deprecating of his singing ability.
@@kelleyoneal2578 I very much agree.
If you like this one you should check out his cover of the Beatles Blackbird.
I don't think I'll say anything more about this arrangement that hasn't been said, so I'll just give you props for that Super Troopers reference you snuck in there. :)
I’m late to this but this one is also my favorite. I hate that it’s the least viewed one of his videos and that makes me sad cause it’s hands down the best one.
Great reaction--thanks!
And just think he is a natural tenor. Love your reactions.
Love this version! I agree, his higher register is more impressive. Some of the low notes he hits in this song are unnecessary, the song stands on its own.
I so agree some of the sub-harmonic notes are NOT necessary. Just because you can doesn't mean you should . Sometimes less is more 🥰Love his upper register 💜
Does Sauceymom know about Geoff? His newest video is insanely low and hysterical. Look for it next week.
You have not done far over the Misty Mountain and I wished to God you would because you will lose your mind!
Not a fan of his base singing voice but his higher registers are aweeeesome. Need some more of that, where can I find it Home Fries?
Geoff covered RADIOHEAD????
🙂👍🇧🇻
Hello sir, you have to check "Survivor: VoicePlay vs Home Free" and "Twenty One Pilots mashup" both of them are amazing
And also are you interested in Arabic music?
I'm Egyptian, so if you are interested, please tell me and I will send you a lot of recommendations
Hey, Saucey! Have you reacted to Jeff dunham & Melvin the Superhero yet? If not here is the link: th-cam.com/video/GabqsZulUOk/w-d-xo.html
Personally I love Geoff. But think he is getting Abit over doing the subharmonics and bass notes.
He did only 1 sub all the rest was chest voice
