We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com
Dunno where to suggest these, but could you react to The Warning? I think you'd be impressed. Start with "Choke."
Would you be insulted if I told you that my kids and I have concluded that YOU could be a Disney princess? Huge eyes - check. Wears her heart on her sleeve - check. Appears to be kind and full of joy - double check. 🌼🌺🌸✨💕
This just made my week! I would LOVE to be a Disney princess!!!
@@TheCharismaticVoice this is very late, but I can definitely see it too
she's even got a little button nose similar to how they drew them in 80s and 90s disney princesses.
Yes!
And she can sing thats a must
I feel like you would absolutely LOVE their “Phantom of the Opera” cover! Definitely recommend putting that on the list 😊
OH YES PLEASE!!!
I LOVE THAT ONE
While talking about phantom of the opera, you have to listen to dan vasc cover
I came to the comment section to say the same thing
Just watched. Wow. Awesome!
That transition into Know Who You Are gives me a pleasant little shiver, every time. Geoff dropping into that G1, Layne singing, Rachel's precision in her delivery... it's a pure moment.
Don't mind me, I'm just waiting for her to get to the part where Geoff turns into the bassmonster once more (After his 'solo')
For some songs, like the Oogie boogie song, they record Geoff’s voice more than once so he can have the lead and the bass at once
In this song eli does the bass when geoff sings, no extra voice from geoff
@@johngeo5816 i don't think they do that in studio
No. Eli was the one doing the basslines
This was done during the time when Tony (the baritone) had left the group and they were searching for a replacement, eventually hiring J. None for the slot. Rachel has done guest spots both in the 5th spot and with the full group. Earl recently left the group and she filled in the 5th spot in their Little Mermaid medley, which is stellar.
One of the things people who react to this video miss is the syncopation during “You’re Welcome” between Eli and Rachel. It’s soo good.
Right?!?!
@@TheCharismaticVoice You went back and watched it again, didn’t you?
Maybeeeeeeeee?
@@TheCharismaticVoice don't blame you. It's great
"Since they have Rachel here they have a little more room to stack" Oh you haven't heard Earl hit his really high notes yet...
Dude he can get sooo high
Yeah. Check out their cover of the Johnny Cash song Daddy Sang Bass. And, be ready with the tissues at the end.
I hope others understand and identify, but when I watch you react it makes me happy like that same kid in the candy store reacting to you and them and getting the same feelings and emotions of joy with them, and noticing the little things as well. I just feel nothing but happy watching this medley.
You all get an unfiltered peek into how I truly get giddy with new music. I absolutely LOVE this!
Ì love that Medley. been trying to sing Geoff's Urzula part all week haha
"They have a coconut!" Best coconut observation based reaction ever! :D Hahaha
I mean, I try! ;-)
@@TheCharismaticVoice Do. Or do not. There is no try ;) hehehe
@@theboyfaz Somebody seems to be a Master Oogway fan. Which I totally get.
But do they have a swallow…? How did it get there?
@@PhilBoswell African or European?
I guess they list Layne as Hei Hei exactly because the character has no lines. Since he's the beatboxer he doesn't get to sing lyrics. Maybe it's a double play to have him as hei hei?
He's also a bit chicken like.
@Alexandria Hauser Well I feel pretty stupid right now because I have no idea what pun you are referring to.
He says plenty! Such as: "buh...CAHW!"
Fun fact: Eli is pronounced like Ellie!
is he jewish?
@@Eyal_Cohen I'm not sure. What I do know is that his full first name is Eliezer, but he goes by Eli.
Ok lol its a really jewish name...cool...the meaning of his full name is 'the god help me'
I’m looking forward to this
If your checking their Moana medley you have to check out their little mermaid medley it also features Racheal
What gets me is Geoff's ability to channel Jemaine during his solo. (Loved Flight of the Concords btw)
Love your excitement and enthusiasm with your reactions. And the knowledge that goes along. Anybody can react but not everybody understands the techniques behind the performance. Great job. I really love the group and enjoy Rachel’s visits. She does a beautiful version of how far with her group voctave.
Thank you, Trix.
Rachel is not in Voctave. Voctave DO make a beautiful version of ”How far I go” but the lead singer in their version is Ashley Espinoza.
You do look like a Disney princess!! Hahaha. So true!
That viewer and their family were right on the money! You go girl!
Whistle whistle!
This is a very good medley; Rachel also has a mash-up with Voctave with "Poor Unfortunate Souls" and "I've Put A Spell On You" from Hocus Pocus. She sounds as lovely and clear on that one as she does here with VoicePlay.
The eyebrows are strong with this one.
I just started the vid. What's the grunt factor?
One is much more practiced than the other. Beware!
@@TheCharismaticVoice I fear neither, dear Elizabeth.
I was referring to my awkward eyebrows. ;-)
@@TheCharismaticVoice I understand now. Look up "Emilia Clarke eyebrows" on the YT if you have a moment.
Rachel Potter was a Nashville Country singer who tried to revive her career on AGT. Now she does a lot of stuff with VoicePlay (maybe she will become a permanent member) since they lost one of their members.
Rachel was an X factor contestant. I remember her audition as having great control and effortless projection, like a musical theater singer.
As an aside, you can mail a coconut through the USPS by putting a stamp on it and to/from. No box, a bare coconut.
I will be trying this.
I've listened to this song SO VERY MANY times and I've never once heard the slide Geoff does at 22:53 before, and WOW I love it.
"reminds me of hiccup" I can't unhear that now!!
Your joyful reactions to all the songs is simply wonderful. Out of the "vocal coaches" that I've seen, only three (of which you are one) seem to both truly enjoy the music and break down the style and technical aspects in a knowledgeable fashion.
For more VoicePlay and Rachael Potter, definitely do "The Little Mermaid Medley" and "The Phantom of the Opera". Both are great. For some more Christmas suggestions, HomeFree's "Do you hear what I hear" and Voctave's "Oh come all ye faithful". And for something just stunning HomeFree's "How Great Thou Art" and Voctaves "The Great Movie Medley".
"The Phantom of the Opera" is probably my favorite with Rachel Potter.
Nice suggestions Mieknara! We'll have them logged and I hope to react on each one.
If you liked this one, you really should react to their “Phantom of the Opera” and the “Oogie Boogie song” you won’t be disappointed!
She already has reacted to the Oogie Boogie Man, a while ago.
Yeah realized that after I hit send, it was that reaction that made me start following her
@@scottpeach987 For me, it was Sixteen Tons. I love watching her facial expressions. Especially, when she hears something she didn't expect, like the water drop sound Layne made.
The BASS-Sound from the Guy, front right, his Voice, Fantastic, im a bit jealouse...
I can't tell you how much i've been listening to this and the little murmaid medley and I am STILL finding more and more things each time. It's NUTS! Love your full on analysis as usual, so full of excitement and info!
Their Frozen 2 medley is also really great.

There's few songs/medleys that can give me a consistent physical reaction every time I hear it but this song puts my hair on end and gives me whole body goosebumps every single time I hear it.
I am looking forward to it! Thank you in advance for the reaction!
Hope you enjoy it!
You are one great teacher , you pick up on all those sounds and change ups . I got goose bumps while listening to them sing .
We call them "goosies" now.
@@TheCharismaticVoice Nice :-)
@@TheCharismaticVoiceI've been calling them goosies ever since I heard J-Lo call them that on TV. 😂❤
great reaction & analysis !
next time we visit voice play , how about Phantom of the opera? also featuring the wonderful Rachel.
Highly recommended.
I’m so excited for this reaction!
I first saw Rachel Potter a few years ago on one of the talent show, she was very good then. Nice to see she's doing well.
Your reactions were so adorable and I agree that you would make an amazing Disney princess
I just knew you were going to love this one.. Thanks so much for reacting to this one.
How fun is this - and how good! Love Rachel Potter as well.
Their cover of SIA’s Chandelier is probably Rachel’s best collab with them. But she herself is actually a solid stage singer, you can look up her live theater clips and she’s... whew... really really strong vocally
Your reactions are one of my best!
And the smile and laughter you add to it is just... Wow!
So excited for this one!! Not sure how you've never seen it before, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE this video/song!
I always enjoy watching your reactions so much! You're so adorable and I love how much fun you have while listening and watching
YES I've been waiting for this one!! Awesome :)))
I absolutely love watching your reactions! You are so honest and excited. I'll be joining patreon soon!👑🙌🏽❤️
We would be overjoyed to have you, Nate! The Discord channel is amazing, and the community that's grown is just... spectacular!
Loved this video, would definitely recommend watching VoicePlay's Phantom of the Opera - another outstanding Rachel collaboration
that was awesome. Worth the length of the video. I love their voices!
Omg seriously Kirk, why you gotta do Elizabeth like this? Not gonna lie though, this thumbnail gives me joy and builds the hype for the reaction 😆
Yay! Kirk actually helped me choose this thumbnail. I make too many faces to choose from. :-D
one of my fav video from back in the day. So catchy. Love this!
its another mind blowing reaction from the voiceplay..with rachel potter keep safe everyone😘
I love how giddy, happy, and pure your reaction is.
Those strange noises you thought were "post" were all Layne. The light was low and the type of noises he was making don't require much facial movement, but you could see it ever so slightly on his face that it was him doing it.
You should also check out Voiceplay with Rachel Potter doing "The Phantom of the Opera". She is mind blowing amazing in that song. Another awesome medley from Voiceplay is their Queen medley. That video is epic.
So excited to see more Voiceplay on here! I love how everything is analyzed. It really makes me appreciate it that much more. Please do their Queen in 5 Minutes and Geoff's The Headless Horseman from his channel!

You need to stop talking so much in your vids witch make it longer I love the content but we just want to listen and see the reaction not rewinding to hear every second plz
shes so beautiful
@@tylergarland5142 Actually that's what I come here for. If you are trying to learn something - finding something on a replay or re-listening in a different way is very helpful. If you just want to listen -> go to the original video
It is indeed Eli on that bass part. He's a baritone that is usually singing low tenor. And that "in post" part was most likely Layne. He's kinda crazy like that.
Most of the songs are recorded, in a lot of them they have Geoff's voice recorded in the background, like when in the Oogie Boogie Song, when Geoff isn't singing, he's doing the background bass. Also, when they don't have recordings, and its live, Eli doesn't do it.
My bad, I listened back a few times, it's not as deep as it was originally portrayed, it's baritone range.
@@menamesskit3336 yes, but Eli can sing bass
Love your reactions so much! They always seem to mirror my own. Such a great song and arrangement. I've been loving your reactions to Voiceplay and Homefree. I would love to see some more to Voctave as well. Their new album, and especially their Christmas music as we are going into the season!
Great suggestion! I am looking for some Christmas music, so I'll check it out!
@@TheCharismaticVoice They have many excellent Christmas songs, but I would definitely say O Come, All Ye Faithful is not to be missed!
Yes, more Voctave please!
Respectfully, You are like Disney Princess beautiful. Thanks for the joy filled reaction/analysis. You have a great love for music which makes your comments very sincere.
yep, I like this one. can't wait.
Loved it! This medley is so good. But they have also done a “The Little Mermaid” medley and thats just insane!
Please check that out aswell!
Your reaction and analyses are superb.
Love Love Love watching people fall in love with them 💕
Rachel Potter auditioned for the x factor US she sang a country version of Queen's somebody to love...she slew it
Your reactions are THE BEST!
Another one I'm obsessed with is the disney princess medley by voctave.. acapella and omg their voices are so flawless!
Such enthusiasm. It's contagious. Enjoyed the breakdown.
As always, love your reactions and observations as much as the videos. Thanks for sharing.
I love watching you react to music and how much you enjoy it 😍
Had no idea about that connection of the vagus nerve, I had always thought of it in context to the heart, lungs, and digestive tract, so very cool thank you.
As it's getting near the festive season and considering you enjoyed this so much, have a listen to "O Holy Night", which Voiceplay did with Rachel. Even if you don't do a reaction video, just listen to it. Knowing how much you love acapella ensemble music in general, I guarantee it will have you geeking out big time. Earl does an octave jump on the "Noel" just after the 3:04 mark, the harmonies, oh my Lord! It's a sublime piece of music and Rachel is AMAZING.
They are really.....Really good. And Rachel is a wonderful addition for this arrangement.
oml I love your hair, cant get over it. Also great vid! XD
I remember being new in singing, first time I got into mixed chorus the teacher decided to try my range and I had no idea what he meant so at the top I tried a falsetto (didn't know what that was called either 😅) but he had me doing it higher and lower, then put me in swing choir to back up the girls soprano. He said I could hide behind someone but I didn't care, ended up using the falsetto in the musical we did. Then he added me to Acapella and I was learning so many songs, Barber Shop quartet and more. So much fun
just back to show some love.. TYY you so much Liz for doing these... i am a sonic wave geek... and you are devasting at this.. love your work! ♥
Your way of enthousiastic talking is way too cute for me❣ You're such a beautiful person!❣🥺🤗
Thank you for covering this.
I hear two funny little sounds at 14:29 , I wonder what they are :) Also, love seeing your take on this performance - it's one of my favorites. Looking forward to the followup video!!
My giggle? I didn't hear anything but me talking at 14:29...
@@TheCharismaticVoice There are two tiny sounds that sound almost like someone saying "Yip", the first (more difficult to hear) happens during you saying 'really', and the second (more audible) happens just before you say 'youthful'. Definitely nothing distracting, I just happened to notice the second one while watching and caught the first one when looking for the timestamp :)
Elizabeth, great video. And just a super random compliment--your hair is on point.
You were a lot of fun to watch in this video. Great reactions. =^.^=
I think this is your best thumbnail so far lol
I had to rewind many times all those laughters of yours because they made my day. I suggested this song a while ago because I knew you'd enjoy this. I wasn't wrong. ;) Now, I'm off to watch our interview. Have a great weekend because it's already starting here in Finland (it's 9:10pm and it's been dark for hours already)!
Thank you, Mika! I'm glad I could have finally gotten around to it for you (as well as infect you with my laughter!)
Love Voiceplay's Don't stop believing featuring Earl.
rachel has been a contestant on BGT she really good
HI from Brooklyn,NY; Rachael Potter audition on the USA X-Factor was Queen's To Love Someone to a standing O.in 2013.
Might i suggest Voice Play /w Rachel singing Phantom of the Opera
Geoff is often double tracked in the covers
So much fun to listen to.
I love this one I've seen it probably like 10 times
I love watching you react, your eyes say everything and when you love something I can tell it. I just subscribed to you and I love watching you react you are just amazing!
Really cool and nice song from a good group.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I'd like to request In this moment - The fighter. There's so much emotion in Maria Brinks voice
One of my favorite ones
Listening to your reactions for a complete musical idiot like me is like listening to TED Talks. I know nothing about what you're talking about, but I hear your passion, your knowledge and your genuine appreciation of the art. I've been a big fan of acapella groups for a few years, but I couldn't sing myself to save my own life. I can't distinguish different notes from each other. If anything, I'd be a drummer or a part of the rhythmic section. Hearing their talent (Home Free, Pentatonix, Voiceplay and many other) is like looking at the dream house you wish you had. And hearing an in-depth analysis with tidbits of highly scientific parts now and then (much about the human anatomy) is just golden news for my knowledge-hungry ears. Keep it up! You rock, Elizabeth!
Stay tuned then. I have something coming out soon that you might be interested in ;-)
I'm keeping an eye out for something that might interest me :)
As for future recommendations, I can concur with many others about Voiceplay's Little Mermaid medley. It has a lot of similarities with this video and song (Layne arrangement, Layne video, feat. Rachel Potter etc.), but I'd be interested in how you'd react when they've changed Earl (tenor) to J None (baritone?) and how that has affected the overall sound and how the different singers adapt to the change in group composition.
I'd also like to know if your newly found knowledge about how the tracks are built/arranged/produced/layered/edited (from the Layne interview) affects how you react to the video and it's many different elements. I'd simply like to see the Little Mermaid medley as a comparison to this video and how the small changes affect your perception of the sound.
You love it nd hate it when it gets paused at the best moments!! XD
I would recommend Voiceplay's Can't help falling in love, Geoff's notes vibrate through my soul and make me cry! And also their Disney on Broadway Medley for my crazy sounds from Layne!
Wow this is awesome!
I always learn a lot listening to you
Awesome review Elizabeth! I always appreciate your technical points. Please do their little mermaid medley now!
It is coming, but most likely early next year Alan!
@@TheCharismaticVoice Channeling my best Tom Petty voice...ahem “The waiting is the hardest part...”. Lol 😂 thanks!
I absolutely love the songs with Rachel. (Phantom of the Opera, Kidnap the Sanday Claus, Little Mermaid Medley)
Why the heck do I love watching you react? I REALLY want you to do "Carry On Wayward Son" by VoicePlay!
Should I do that, or the original? I'm not familiar with the song.
@@TheCharismaticVoice You're not familiar with the song?!? It's a classic by Kansas (which was also used as the theme song for the recently-ended show Supernatural that ran for fifteen years). You should probably be sure to listen to the original first...
I literally got a Zaxby's ad RIGHT AFTER they introduced Lane as Hei Hei 🤣😂🤣😂
This is awesome, yet somehow too wholesome for my jaded soul :).
Love the reaction!! Can’t wait for more voiceplay. Also, Eli is short for Eliezer and is pronounced like Ellie
You are just lovely.
Enjoyed it very much!! Recommending their take on "Kidnap the Sandy Claws" for your Christmas theme! 😄
