Thanks for reacting! I’m glad you picked up on the little details I added here and there :)
Thank you for putting together such an amazing project! I’m glad I was able to bring more attention to the amazing touches that you added! 😄
Incredible arrangement, Bobby. Awesome isn't enough.
Bobby you are a true genius!
Omg I am such a fan on you bobby
What program did you use to write your version of this?
Bobby arranged it! It was so much fun
Yoooo! Thanks for the comment, you absolutely rocked it, along with everyone else 💖
Omg I am such a fan
"...and its alternate use is long distance seasoning." "He's not running away *chuckles* He's gaining MOMENTUM." I nerded a bit when I saw you in this.
Luke Taylor is a young bass. He’s currently on American Idol 🥰
Wait WHAT? Luke got onto American Idol?! Thats absolutely amazing!
That definitely explains the low activity on tiktok. Good for him I hope he does amazing
Oh that's kind of sad that he's felt he had to go on a show like that.
These shows basically use the acts that go on them. If you get so far, you have to sign a contract that the production company will be your agent forever more (unless they cancel it)... and it means you're paying them around 40% (yes FORTY PERCENT) of any earnings you make (even if it was just like being paid to sing at a wedding)!
And only 21. Just imagine in five years plus. I wonder or I dare say might he be a voice unparalleled?
Am I the only one that hears the feedback? Every single copy.
Mortius was SHOOK even before it started.
I love it.
Are bassgasms bad for you?
Nevermind, I do not care. What a way to go.
LOL same 😂
A lot of artists from The Wellerman (and this video) were part of the tic tok trend when the Sea Shanty was a thing. If you remember the viral video by Nathan Evans where people kept adding and layering, you will see a lot of the familiar faces from that in this video.
I don't think this could have happened without the Bass Gang forming and tapping into the bass collab market. This is where the reaction community is so good for these artists. I caught a recommendation for Tomi's Hellfire cover from a user on one of Charismatic's vids and it led to the discovery of the Bass Gang and their members. Now we have this. Thank you for your work in exposing these artists to the wider audience!
On top of that, reactors like you help with having a greater appreciation for the subtleties of arrangements, which makes listening all that much more enjoyable.
@@Overlord_Arlas I think it would have been easier a year ago but she's gotten a lot more popular. Her focus seems to be on much bigger acts. I don't blame them it brings in views. Hoping they start showcasing some up and coming content creators.
@@brd24gor they just have way too much to react to and a backlog of hundrets of videos that they "should react to", so it isn't that easy to recoment new artists when the backlog of older artists is already that long and it get's longer every time old artists publish a new video
Have been waiting for your reaction to this since I saw Peter Barber’s reaction :) this is going to be fun to watch, I can already tell. Let the mind breaking begin lmao.
I absolutely love that he makes many of the same facial expressions, and flailing about, that I still do listening to them. My daughter sent me the video, knowing how much I LOVE bass, but she didn't prepare me for it at all! I was a heart palpitations and marriage proposals probably the first 30 seconds lmao.
Watching you lose your mind in such a positive and wholesome way is the best part of my day. Your reactions are so fitting and delightful! I'm always giggling and clapping, shouting YES!! EXACTLY!! I hope you have a great day, and thank you for making mine brighter. 🥰🌹💖
Loved your reaction!! Peter said in his analysis, that he and Tomi did the high parts that you were questioning.
It’s actually kinda terrifying how good this is 😅
Just close your eyes and picture a huge underground hall filled with dwarves singing. This is what I always imagined it sounding like. This is magical.
If you get Bobby for an interview I’m definitely there for it. Some of those really high notes have to be Tomi P, but I know Peter, Sam Pope and maybe also David Larson also contributed to the higher harmonies. It was fun to watch you react to this one.
This song is overwhelming in the Bass category and I’m so glad I’m not the only one reacting so aggressively wi the amazement!
I have to say it! To me this sounds like a human pipe organ in a massive cathedral!!!
My favourite version of this song. All that bass just resonates through your entire body but those high harmonies are the icing on the cake. Also has two of my absolute favourite singers -Tomi P and Marwan Ayman. 🤩What’s not to love about this. No analysis required, reaction said it all.
You really need to watch Peter Barbers analysis for answers to many of your questions. For one - Peter and TomiP did high notes - for the most part. Peter Barber said Bobby was influenced by Peter Hollens version for one.
I have watched it since, but for obvious reasons I couldn’t have watched it before this recording or else it would not be a blind reaction
The Wellermen was formed on TikTok. They are Aaron Sloan, Bobby Waters (AKA Bobby Bass), Jonny Stewart, Luke Taylor & Sam Pope. They asked all these other artists to join them on this song.
I became enthralled with Luke Taylor when I saw him on I Can Hear Your Voice. I think it was the first episode of this season.
The repeat of “The pines were roaring blazed with light,” was truly epic! The arrangement was truly sublime. I was repeatedly pressing the 10 seconds back button, just to take it all in. Thank you for sharing this.
"... just a livestream of my brains being blown out my ears & replaced by bass." Ahahahaha 🤓 As usual, watching your kinetic full-body reactions to & involvement with the music is a whole other level of enjoyment! 💜
One of my very favorite things about this version is being able to hear so many different vocal colors & phrasings & tonalities, all belonging to bass singers. Folks who don't know much about music (especially if they only listen to 1 genre) never usually get to experience the differences in voices like that!
Thanks for the intro to this bunch brother Mortius. Wellermen By the wau - what does Wellerman mean?
A “Wellerman” was an employee of the Sydney-based Weller Brothers' shipping company, which from 1833 was the major supplier of provisions - such as the “sugar and tea and rum” of the shanty's refrain - to whaling stations on New Zealand shores. Keep up the great work!
In this case, The Wellermen is the group formed by Bobby Waters, Jonny Stewart, Luke Taylor, and Sam Pope originally to release the single "The Wellerman" after the song went viral with their additions last year. The rest of the singers are technically guest artists.
@@drekfletch Thanks D. Great information is always appreciated.
I too was left... flabbergasted. Utterly speechless. Your reaction was everything I hoped it would be. Masterful piece of music and easily, instantly, my new favorite cover of this song.
Ohhohhohh....! This. Is. Too. Much! Why have I not heard this vibration before? I love Misty Mountains and thought I had heard every version, but, NO! I was wrong. THIS is now the top of the Misty Mountain heap. The voices! The VOICES!! Stand alone voices....together!! The sound....oh, my soul, be still, be still. Let the harmonies and deep wash over you. I am no analyst, no vocal expert....I only know what moves me, what talks to me, voyages with me, haunts and does not leave me. Welcome home, Wellerman, to my house of music. May you always sound like this, deep as the ocean, deep as the space between Middle earth and Moira.
I so enjoy your honest reactions! Outstanding. This is my favorite rendition of this song, with Geoff's cover a close second!
Peter Barber did a reaction to this and he was in it, but he gives a lot about the behind the scenes for this colab.
I got such a giggle from your reaction - lol. It was pretty much the same reaction I had
I've been absolutely obsessed with their version of the song since they released it, and to hear such a passionate and in-depth analysis helps me enjoy it even more! You hit so many details I missed and now my appreciation for this iteration has passed the ceiling of expectations and entered orbit. Excellent video, 100/10, your passion and enthusiasm are contagious and I love what you do!
Knew you would flip with this one
All bass,. They are marvelous, awesome, great. Loved it
What I absolutely love about this song is that it doesn't play coy with the voices. It has, what maybe six?, different moments that would be the crowning achievement of a normal song. Bobby knew what he had. It has the mega-extra-super final note, but throughout the song it has majestic moments of harmony that would be the pride of any normal song from less than a minute in. And then they kept coming.
My biggest issue with most collaborations is that the arranger just doesn't use the voices to the hilt. This song does NOT have that problem.
I've been looking forward to your reaction to this!! This song is one of my absolute favorites and this cover is just one of the best.
This is a wonderful version. Well, I'm totally bias to bass voices, with Geoff being my very favorite! But still, this is great!
I agree with you on adding captions, I just know a handful of names, and it would be nice to know all of them.
By the same token, I would very much appreciate if you show the link to the original video. Please do it!
It is in the description, as always!!
My bad. It's listed with the word "support" first, so I thought it was something else.
Has anyone shared this with Tim Foust or Geoff Castalucci yet?
Most amazing bass voices I’ve heard in my entire life. And I was an opera. Amazing fantastic unparalleled.
I absolutely love your reaction to this!! I was freaking out when I first heard it myself.
Check out Colm McGuiness, If I had a heart Norse Version with fever ray. He learned old Norse to do this song justice.
Next Wednesday!
I love his stuff. His rendition of Sleeping in the Cold Below is haunting.
I love how it has different ranges of bass! This is amazing!!!!
The Avi look alike on the bottom left looks like Efe Sayin from Efe's art. He and Tomi recently released Avi Kaplan Medley and it's excellent, but if you watch it, make sure you keep watching till the cameo that appears after the song ends.
Somehow this song hadn’t popped up on my radar yet! Thank you for including it in your reactions!
i felt u so much when the first harmony got there (5:02) i was listening to that on repeat 😂
Love the reaction! Should definitely check out One More Pull by The Wellermen ft The Longest Johns
Dude!! You are by far the funnest, and the funniest, responder to this collab. The Wellermen's voices are the stuff of legend. What a thrill to hear them and see your reaction. Props. I'm a sub now :)
I'm with you on this one. I hadn't heard about this one and OMG this was AMAZING.
Luke has a voice just made for opera. I don’t usually watch AI, but I’ll have to now.
I had so much fun watching this guy just absolutely lose his mind watching this, it was SO fun!
Wonderful reaction! Today is the first time I heard this cover and it is amazing!
this is a classic. Love it
this is *EPIC* Mortius !!!!!! OMG !!
Jojo and Luke have my favorite voices on this whole thinb
If you havent yet. You should check out react to Peter Hollens & Tim Foust of Home Free si ging Misty Mountains.
Thanks for your reaction (and silly faces)! Update note, Colm (McGuinness) is pronounced more like 'column'. ;)
The dude you asked who it was, just WENT TO HOLLYWOOD on American Idol
This performance is pure ear candy, but in several places I can't understand the lyrics at all. I still enjoy it as I would if it were in another language I don't speak but since the lyrics are clear in some places, it does get a little frustrating when I can't understand what they're singing for the next several seconds. (I have trouble understanding people on the phone sometimes or if I'm not fully awake or fully paying attention,, so it may just be me as my brain has issues processing language sometimes; it was a great obstacle when I decided to become a Spanish teacher, lol.)
I think the lyrics are relatively clear throughout, so yes, you might have some auditory processing issues. Maybe it helps to listen to it while having the lyrics in front of you? I don't know if there are subtitles available on the original video, but if not, maybe there is a lyric video somewhere? I don't know, I haven't looked for it.
this dude is amusing. this song is amazing.
Amazing reaction 🥰🥰
Bobby bass created this arrangement
By the way, this could be a gateway for some pretty amazing solo artists for you to react to. Colm McGuinness just released a cover of Ye Black and Tan that’s excellent (also, If I Had a Heart, and if you’re in a nerdy mood, the Dwarvish version of Misty Mountains), Jojo Otseidu sings with Backtrack Vocals and they have some great songs-and there’s more.
Btw I love your reactions!!!!
In his react Peter Barber said who did the high notes
4:59 Man your soul just left your body🤣
Amazing !!
Bobby bass for the arrangements I believe
7:27 when Jesus joined in.
The wellerman were a shipping company that would deliever supplies to fishing boats while they were on fishing expeditions. That’s why, in the song, they’re basically saying the wellerman are coming soon to bring tea, rum and sugar
This is legitimately my favorite cover of this song.
It's okay, Mortius. I cried, too.
Luke Taylor was the first bass singer I fell in love with
Your reaction said it all.
As an acapella singer, I think you would enjoy reacting to The Newfangled Four. Barbershop quartet at its finest
Also, by far the best reaction I've seen for this song. You have my sub. And my sword. And my bow. Axes are alright I guess
The whole time I was thinking STOP FUCKING PAUSING
No :)
I swear I heard Mongolian Throat Singing. Someone had a whistle note in there.
the whistle note was probably Tomi P
It was Peter barber doing the high part on lay I think. (Well he was part of it) he is an opera singer
You should listen to this by voice play they do their own version
The Wellermen also fo a version of the sea shanty The Wellerman
You can just watch him slowly melt as the song goes on.
If you're not listening with an ear piece or surround sound, you don't understand that its even better
I am not sure but the voice which does the high shout from 10:36 to 10:38 could be Colm. If you listen to his cover of Daughter of the Sea from 2:28 he is singing in a very high voice and it kinda sounds similar in my opinion. But I also have to say I am no music expert so I do apologize in advance for any mistakes on this topic.
The teacher: Sing
Me: to find a... 14 PARD HARMONY AA!!!
Check out Peter Barber's analysis, he was in this!
the one on the bottom with the fansy mustache is efe sayan i think
3 hours of reaction because he has to stop every 3 seconds with his facial expressions 😂
I had the exact same reaction 😌
Come on, you're an old ships enthusiast. You should know the history of The Wellermen 😬✌
06:42 it's not Colm that has the distinct timbre in that part. I'm trying to find out his name, I think it's the dude with black beanie.
You hear him again at the front of the mix at 11:22.
Please help me find him out, I'm going insane.
I may have been wrong... investigating.
Bobby Walters
egg
I'd say we have a similar reaction, but you are way more subtle.
Voctave ft. Rachel Potter - "Poor Unfortunate Souls/I Put A Spell On You"
I think they broke Mortius XD
7:25 That's Jonathan Young. You gotta check out his songs, especially the ones he sings with Peyton Parrish.
While you're at it, check out Peyton Parrish! 😂
9:43 was peter
Я конечно плохо знаю английский, так как я из России, но мне нравится канал Wellerman:>
Here’s a video about the making of the video. I’m sure you’ve seen it by now. th-cam.com/video/cGl3EDckj8w/w-d-xo.html
I like the content in this video but I’d suggest pausing less for those who have never listened or would like to hear it full through then listen to your thoughts on said song.😁😁All in all great reaction!
That is exactly why I make sure the very first line in my description every single time is the original song! That way it’s super easy to listen to the original all the way through with a single click :)
I feel like colm has a voice modifier for som reason
People always say that but they end up being wrong
need to lay off the caffeine lol man youre jittery in this video LOL :P
And I still think this one is NOTHING compared to the one with Peter Hollens and Tim Foust!
I hate bass voices, they make me such a fan girl which being a man is quite unsettling.
fangirling is fine lol
Eww yikes! To many stacked backing vocals. Very messy.
