J None was a member of VoicePlay but he was recruited by the US Navy for his vocal talents. He's been gone for 2 years and has 3 or 4 years to go. When he's on leave he comes home and gets a video and some minis or shorts. You can find J None in VPs list: Tennessee Whiskey, Friends on the Other Side (after boot camp), Warriors, Man in the Mirror and many more. Geoff had written the guitar solo for Layne since Metallica had one there but near the shooting date, he asked Layne to use his violin; hence, the moniker VioLayne. It's been 3 yrs since we heard him do this in Warriors all the way through and J None also did a few lines with his violin.
Cesar isn’t doubled you forget that layne is singing too when he isn’t beatboxing lol his voice is kind of light too so it’s easy to confuse
That crazy high note when the violin comes out is Eli. It was not part of the arrangement, Eli was just feeling it and went for it.
Layne could beatbox and violin here, but they thought it looked silly.
Also, nope. Cesar was not doubled. That second higher & breathy voice is Layne. He was singing prior to dropping the beat too.
You can hear him better in their cover of True Colors. He sings more there than in any other of their songs.
For a great one featuring J None, check out their “Tennessee Whiskey”.
Thanks for the info and suggestions! 😊
@@DanielEarnest Voice Play just dropped another new cover song... In My Room... it is so beautiful ❤️ would you please do a reaction to it ?
Don't feel bad about going longer; David K Reacts analysis video for this is over an hour.
Yes, Eli's name rhymes with jelly. In his varied career he has sung lead for a metal band. On one of the takes he decided to go an octave higher than Geoff's arrangement called for. They kept it. He has amazing breath control. In Ride, there is a passage that has no room for a breath so long he nearly passed out while learning it.
J. None was a full time member for about four years before he was recruited by the Navy. They filmed Friends On the Other Side when he was home on leave in 2021. (Geoff used the same backdrop in Way Down.)
Layne has studied violin since at least a teenager. See him and another VP member play violin in Warriors. Technically Layne can go lower than Geoff... with sound effects, not singing. He can use an inhale technique to get down into the basement, like he did in Enemy, and I think that's him making the "frog burp" sound here. He did beatbox while playing violin but they decided it didn't look good here so he's double tracked.
Geoff says he doesn't do the inhale thing because it hurts and it does not sound good when he does it. He proved his point in a tutorial vid.
The length of DavidK's reactions has intimidated me from starting his lol he has a few a t 1 to 1 1/2 hours
@@toddmaliepaard9777 He's modified his format since starting, and now does a simple reaction view, brief discussion, then another play with a detailed analysis. Which is why they've been getting longer. You can choose how much to watch. I find value in the full thing but usually break it up into multiple viewing sessions.
This one broke all of our brains. 😂 VioLayne has a way of doing that. This whole group does, actually. It's really incredible. Loved your reaction!!
You’ve heard J.None before. He was in Waving Through a Window and Go The Distance, and also in Warriors (the other cover you mentioned where Layne plays violin-and so does J.None). He was a member of Voiceplay until a couple years ago when he left to sing for the Navy. (Also, I don’t see it in your playlist but you have to have heard Oogie Boogie’s Song, right?) Anyway, J.None still comes back to sing with these guys when he gets leave and we’re all hoping he’ll be back for good when he’s done with the Navy.
You’re right that Layne can beatbox and play violin-they just decided it didn’t look good for this video (or so I hear). I think i have to agree because he’s playing the thing like a boss and I think making vocal perc faces would detract a bit. LOL.
Great reaction, Daniel! If you haven’t heard some other songs with J.None, go back to the oldies cuz there’s lots of good stuff.
Hearing the way Geoff did that wow during the solo makes me want to see them do a dubstep song
ANnDd....another ones gone, another ones gone....ANOTHER one bites the dust! 😂😂😂❣️❣️
Eli hit the high note before Violayne. They said in the premiere
I've heard they've broken a couple of reactors with this. I think it's awesome how acapella groups can take a song like this with musical instruments and make it even better.
I binge watched this for two weeks on Patreon before they did the public release. Since then I have been watching reactors crumble. I haven't seen all of the reactions, but I've seen over 60 of them. You held up pretty well.
I am old and missed the Metallica era so didn't know this at all. Didn't matter, because it's Voiceplay! Absolutely phenomenal.
The Metallica era is pretty much from 40 years ago and going ☺️🫡
Me too. Anyone that will stand still got on my list.
I'm with you -- I love their version of this song, and I watch reactions specifically to see the blank stare "rebooting" when Layne catches the violin! So much fun!
If you love runs and haven't listened to it yet - their cover of Tennessee Whiskey is a MUST.
Totally/
And after that Bang!
We miss J. None but he has been gone from the group for about eighteen months. He was with the group for about four years. He left the group summer of 2021 and signed up for five years in the Navy. He is currently the new frontman for Navy Band Northwest! Go!! J. On his first leave, he did Friends On The Other Side with the group. He has done some remote minis with the guys and he was on leave again at home to Florida and did this and maybe three minis with the guys. It always feels like he never left. Say HELLO to #VIOLAYNE!!! Amazing surprise and love it.
Thank you for another priceless reaction to Voice Play. Everyone else who did a reaction to this covers jaw dropped when VioLayne caught the violin & started playing. I think you hold the record in the longest jaw drop lol. Now you must please do a reaction video of Voice Plays cover of Warriors. Layne ( VioLayne ) absolutely shreds the violin.
Watch their "Chili's Baby Back Ribs" mini. J and Geoff both going off on a C2. Also, one of the first songs J ever did with them, before he was even a member, Something Just Like This, showcases him singing in three different octaves.
I’d FINALLY got that bloody mini OUT of my head and now it’s back stuck again(we don’t have Chilli’s or anyone who does baby back ribs here)
If you want a couple of additions to the Voiceplay list, I think you’d like: Carry on wayward son, We’re Good, Wicked medley, and Hoist the Colours
J None used to be a member of Voiceplay and you’ve actually reacted to 2 videos with him singing lol. But it was a while ago so it’s easy to forget if you haven’t been binging older Voiceplay songs. But anyway, love seeing your Voiceplay reactions. Keep them coming 😊
At 18:15, the sound you heard is made by Layne, I believe it's done on an inhale too. 18:32 The high notes are done by Eli, you can see the strain on his face as he drops down from the high notes to those more breathy tones
As to Eli's breath control, check out This is Halloween, and Carry on my Wayward son, Layne did both beatboxing and violin in the cover of Warriors, J.None was in there also and he plucks his own violin, the sound you hear during violin solo is reported to be Geoff, in his subwoofer voice saying "WOW".......J.None is in several covers.....do your homework....lol......>^^
Also at the end of Hoist the Colours, Eli holds a note at the rock belt level for a long time followed by Geoff’s long “diiiiie…”
Layne used a violin in the Warriors video when earl was with Voice Play
That's an E1 Geoff gets down to here. Yes in this case Eli is short for Eliezer, unlike the more usual name Eii which is pronounced differently.You need to see their Warrior for Layne and J.None on violins. And Tennessee Whisky to hear runs from Eli and J.None. These guys are multi talented.
Yay! As soon as I saw you had reacted to this when I woke up this morning it was the first thing I watched. Loved it 😊
Awesome review. All of our jaws dropped when Violayne reappeared. Thoughtful and enlightening reaction.
Eli is a rockstar!
I really like how you got in-depth and analyzed as well as reacted. Love VoicePlay
Great reaction and a lot of good observations. I have trouble processing auditorily, so try to watch as many reactors (who do more than react with funny faces) as I can, since you all notice different things. I love that stacking effect they do on the “I” that you pointed out. And thank you for pointing out the changes they made on vowel sounds that opened up that portion where their voices swelled.
You mentioned the camera shake. They have more resources now, but in Geoff’s 16 Tons, the camera shakes were done by his wife Kathy (his only crew). She just literally tapped the camera to get that effect. I think that camera was stationary, so they might have done the same thing here.
I know you have seen J before, but since his time in the Navy, he is very sculpted these days so looks different. His voice has also matured somewhat, and this was a little deeper than he customarily has sung. Among the other ones, people have commented on, you might check out Carry on Wayward Son and Kiss.
Great job, Daniel! You pulled in quite a few things I had not heard from any reactor. Thanks for enlightening.
It is just about the same length as the oringinal song!😊
New subscriber here! 👋 What a rollercoaster ride this one was. Lol. I love how they throw in surprises and make things their own. Your expressions were spot on with mine and others with this one. Pretty sure we all had the same WTH moments. 😂
Voiceplay: Hmm, lets take it to the next level- toss in the violin!
Why not? 😅😂 they are amazing!
Its a long intro for the song is because thats how the song goes from Metallica and Metallica love their looooong intros lol
Was waiting for your reaction to VioLayne. Was not disappointed. Both he and J Nne play violin on the Imagine Dragons cover, 'Warriors'.
VoicePlay brought all the fire to this one!
You have a hilarious reaction to Layne playing violin. I was as surprised at you. Nice job.
Eli did the lighting😊
Eli does have insane breath control. Great reaction, enjoyed it!
It's six and a half minutes long because they kept it very true to the original song. I saw another reactor note that Layne's beatboxing in this one is mimicking, not just real drums, but drums played in the style of 80s/90s rock. Ahaha, and another "What just happened?!?" for VioLayne's score card. XD Nice reaction.
Daniel , I would like to recommend The Charismatic Voice . Check out Elizabeth’s review for this number. I hope you enjoy her reaction.
VioLayne is an accomplished violinist, classical and electric. Just FYI
Having heard the cover, listen to Metallica's video of Nothing Else Matters.
I strongly recommend that you react to Voiceplay's "Dream On" by Aerosmith.
Yeah, with this arrangement Geoff blew everybody's mind, it seems. On fist listen I wasn't sure if I like it, but by now it has grown on me. In parts really faithful to the original, but very different in other parts.
If I may suggest something completely different, here are three songs from Ayreon that are worth a look:
And The Druids Turn To Stone (th-cam.com/video/lR-foGKsus0/w-d-xo.html) Beautiful, chill song about the creation of Stonehenge
Valley Of The Queens (th-cam.com/video/TbebO5BZi-I/w-d-xo.html) A folky trio with three very talented femaie singers
Everybody Dies (th-cam.com/video/9AAXtUdM7xE/w-d-xo.html) Hard to describe. The most upbeat song about a dystopian apocalypse, perhaps? Jennifer had fun with it, for sure.. 😛
You should check out Metallica's version of this to appreciate this even more.
how did you manage not to hear this song before?
You really do need to check out the original by Metallica - this is so faithful to the original with their own flair on top, but not detracting from it!
Something different to react to 'If Only' by Hiss, Alexinho, Colaps, River'
Have you reacted to VOB(voice of boceprate), an Indonesian female band doing a Metallica cover Enter Sandman
You do that note while inhaling??? I can do it exhaling but never tried it inhaling. Seems like I can't get that one done lol. As for that skrelpy noise in the violin solo where the camera shakes, try croaking like a frog while chirping like a large feline (lion,tiger,etc).
13:45 i will put lol
Dude. It’s the Violayne.
VioLayne claims yet another victim. :)
For perspective, watch the original.
Layne is definitely able to beatbox and play violin at the same time (requires a lot of practice of course) but they decided to not show that in the video this time, as the visuals were not very pleasant with Layne's face at that angle against the violin while beatboxing. 😄 They did try, but it just didn't look very nice. Layne beatboxes and plays violin at the same time for Warriors as well, also during live shows. He just needs a lot of practice beforehand to pull it off live.
