No, watch again...he woke up, he didn't die 😊
If Geoff (the bass), Tim (from Home Free) and Avi (from Pentatonix) were all in the same room together, there isn't a subwoofer on earth that could survive.
Don't forget Matt. He's got a deep voice, but I heard deeper stuff from him on PTX's new album than I've heard from him before
Not that many fans either would survive that trios "dragon breath"!
Jim you need to checkout their cover of Oogie Boogie song. Geoff the bass takes the lead and it’s incredible.
I’ll add it to the list. Thanks so much for the recommendation!
Same thing with their your a mean one mr grinch cover that featured more of the group
@@JimGames they have some amazing mashups and in five minutes videos Oogie Boogie is Geoff’s child! Be prepared for an earthquake!
All 3 groups are totally different...I never compare them. Voice Play is fun and theatrical. Pentatonix is very technical and precise. Home Free is country. I love them all!
Geoff once described Voiceplay as Pentatonix but sillier. Following that, Home Free would be Pentatonix, but tailgating (country and partying). Or in other words, at Acapella High, Pentatonix are the Student Council, Voiceplay is the Theater Nerds, and Home Free are the guys throwing a party in the parking lot.
Carry On My Wayward Son is a new cover by Voiceplay. It is amazing.
Nice! Kansas rules!
I second the request for a reaction to this song
Carry on wayward son is amazing. Theres a DEEP rabbit hole to fall down for PTX, Voiceplay, Home Free, and for choral platinum level stuff, check out Voctave.
I also recommend that you check out Geoff Castellucci's solo stuff (he's their phenomenal bass.)
I love the way they get into character with costumes. More, more, more VoicePlay!! He didn't die. His husband was so happy that he woke up.
You are one of the few reaction vids that really acknowledges Layne's beatbox skills. It still catches me off-guard sometimes when I look and realize that no, that's not a drum machine, that's a human voice! Also, if you like the bass singer, Geoff Castellucci has his own channel, and his covers of 16 Tons and of Blackbird are absolutely amazing.
Voice play is great at making a story with a lot of their videos. They are really awesome. All their Disney medleys are fantastic. Oogie Boogies song, Kidnap the Santa Claus and Carry on Wayward son would be some of my favs though.
Members of Voiceplay:
Tenor 1: Earl Elkins Jr. (He left the group in July of 2020) He was the guy in the hospital bed in this video
Tenor 2: Eli Jacobson- he was the bald dude in this who you said was a ‘firecracker’
Baritone: J.None- He was the black dude who had the first solo in this
Beat boxer/Vocal Percussion: Layne Stein- He was the guy who disappeared first towards the end and he can do many sound effects that blow peoples minds
Bass: Geoff Castellucci- Kind of obvious who he was in this, the guy that blows your speakers and short circuits your brain with either his ground shaking bass, or him showing off his range. He has a 5, almost 6, octave range and he does some leads in songs like “Oogie Boogie Song” and “You’re A Mean One Mr. Grinch”
So that’s everybody. Voiceplay is personally my favorite acapella group and Geoff is my favorite, but I love all of them. I hope to see you do more reactions to them in the future.
Awesome reaction. If you dont mind disney, i would definitely recommend Voiceplay's Little Mermaid Medley and their Moana Medley. They both feature Rachel Potter who has an amazing voice and often features on Voiceplay videos
Great reaction, got a new sub! I wanna suggest their "Boy Bands in 5 minutes" medley, they have so much fun in that one. Honestly all of their work is amazing, can't go wrong with VoicePlay... especially if you love Disney songs for example in their "ACA Top 10 Disney Villains/Heroes" or Helloween classics like "This is Helloween", they do lots of those and always have such great theatrics and costumes on top of their amazing arrangement and singing skills! If you find time and since you seem to like basses showing off their skills, maybe react to songs from their bass, Geoff Castellucci, he has a solo channel where he recently started putting out solo covers where he harmonizes with himself and shows off his insane 5 octave range, it'll blow your mind.
btw, to the story of this video: Earl, their tenor in the hospital bed, has some kind of near death experience/is in a coma and through that meets several gods/entities from different cultures that represent death. Those seem to fight over who gets his soul, but in the end he in fact defeats them and wakes up from the "coma" and lives to the relief of his spouse.
Ill add it to the list. Thank you so much for subscribing!
Earl woke up from his "dream" at the end.
Welcome to the ridiculous, crazy, amazingness of the rabbit hole that is the modern Acappella with PTX, Voiceplay, and Home Free. I adore all three and am so glad you enjoy this medley. I think it shows off just how FUN Voiceplay is and what they put into all their videos! Wonderful reaction, will have fun following you down this fun insanity!
If you want more fun from any of these groups:
Voiceplay: Really any of their "in 5 minutes" medley are super fun, but their version of Carry On Wayward Son is pretty new and super fun and shows more the "serious" side. Honestly probably can't go wrong with any of them, and if you are ok with nostalgic Disney (or not so nostalgic) their Disney medley are really well done and fun as well if you enjoy the playful side.
PTX (shortened Pentatoix): Also hard to pick specific suggestions, you have done 2 of my favorites already. Their version of Sound of Silence is really good, and Imagine is also a must-see in my opinion, but again hard to go wrong with any of them really. (That's pretty much a theme here)
Home Free: Some of their newest stuff are must-sees. When a Man Loves a Woman, American Pie are the first two that come to mind, but their Ring of Fire with Avi (the pass you liked who was with PTX), which is older is also AMAZING. Much like I said with the others, it's hard to really go WRONG with any of their stuff either.
Also, other people have already mentioned it I see, but if you want more of Geoff (the bass you really liked here) his solo stuff (thinking specifically Blackbird, High and Dry, and the newest Sixteen Tons) show off his range and ability and are amazing covers. They aren't acapella specifically but totally worth listening to.
These groups give you something you never knew you needed.
No, Earl (who is now a former member of Voiceplay) didn’t die, he chose to live! The show must go on!
Definitely check out their "Warriors". It's amazing.
My personal favorite. Layne's violin!
Geoff Castellucci Black Bird, Headless Horseman, The Raven
Austin Brown (tenor for Home Free) Unchained Melody
Any Peter Hollens: Black is the Color of My True Loves Hair, Misty Mountains, God only Knows (to start with)
PTX, Home Free, Voiceplay, Voctave, Peter Hollens have over 800 covers and originals on TH-cam.
I am literally always on the lookout for new people reacting to Voiceplay! I really liked yours especially, because you went into the parts you liked and that caught your attention, rather than just sitting and watching passively. Please, please do more Voiceplay! Also, if you like bass, check out their bass, Geoff Castellucci's solo channel. His production of Sixteen Tons is even billed as a Low Bass Cover. And for more of him with the group, check out Oogie Boogie's Song and the Little Mermaid Medley. For an amazing production, Warriors is stunning. And Trapped, Panic part 1, and Panic part 2 tell a cohesive story like this one. For more of their great transitions, you'll also like their Boybands in 5 minutes.
I will be looking for any further Voiceplay reactions you do!
I suggest all of Geoff’s covers he has, all are amazing. VoicePlay’s recent with John Pinto Jr is really good and they have a new one coming soon that is phenomenal. looking forward to other reactions to them.
Tim the bass from Homefree taught Geoff how to go low doing subharmonics and growl techniques
I believe he only taught him growl. Subharmonics he learned from a different person. Unsure who.
Correction: he learned subharmonics from David Larson. He usually doesn’t use the growl technique. But he does like those subharmonics!
Hi Jim, when I think of the 3 groups I see Voiceplay w/ a more theatrical flare, Home Free with their country flare, and Pentatonix has an all around general acapella group. I don't see how anyone can compare the groups, while they are acapella they sing or preform so different.
Also, to put your mind at ease, the guy did live at the end. His eyes popped open. When you see him in the dark then it becomes all white, I believe that to be his eyes opening to the light in the room. :) I worked in health care a long time so the first time I saw this I was watching his face at the end and his eyes flutter open. Thanks for your reviews, I watched your Home Free video and that is a great video as well. OH, while it's not halloween, if you want to hear the bass, Geoff, sing a majority of a song check out Oogie Boogie's Christmas (something like that lol) It's from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I've never seen it, but my oldest loves it and remember hearing some of the songs and Oogie Boogie is one of them. Anyway, enjoy your day!
I was probably one of several that mentioned VoicePlay and Home Free in the comments of your PTX Daft Punk reaction. I watched the Home Free reaction before this one. A good bass definitely make the sound. Geoff, the bass for VoicePlay, has his own channel. Check out Oogie Boog song from VP channel, and Geoff's solo covers of Bear Necessities, Headless Horseman, 16 tons, Blackbird...and definitely do more Home Free also...LOL
All the bass sounds are Geoff Castalucci in case you wondered. Their covers done straight without the drama are also amazing. My favourits, I think, is Tennesse Whisky.
Thanks for reacting to this. I'm glad you're not disappointed. As a fan of Queen, I figured you'd be at least impressed with their cover. Their transitions are seamless and the arrangements are spectacular, some of the best.
Geoff is their bass and he is rumored to have a 5 octave range. You get glimpses of it here and, if you heed the advice from others below, "Oogie Boogie" will showcase it in his run at the end of that.
Pentatonix is probably the most well-known acapella group and are pretty straight forward in their performances. To see their sense of humor, you need to watch either Superfruit (Scott and Mitch's channel) or the side videos to the fans.
VoicePlay is more theatrical with various members having worked for some of the Florida theme parks. However, they usually weave their sense of humor throughout their performances. The same can be said of Home Free. They just have fun with it. Home Free isn't as theatrical and often has a more country flavor to their arrangements. Home Free's bass Tim, like Geoff, has about a 5 octave range as well.
For a treat using some crossovers, check out Home Free's "Ring of Fire" cover featuring Avi Kaplan, the bass from Pentatonix and VoicePlay's "Just Sing," featuring well everybody. Also, Voctave's "Disney Love Medley" featuring Pentatonix's Kirstie Maldonado (and her then-fiance' Jeremy) will introduce you to an acapella group that does not have a beatboxer, is a little more operatic, but highly talented and enjoyable (also with Florida theme park experience). And for Voctave, you have to listen to their "Great Movie Medley."
VoicePlay does a lot of 'medleys' and 'mashups' which are incredible arrangements and none of them are bad: boy bands, disney villains, disney sidekicks, disney heroes, billie eilish, twenty-one pilots...Pentaonix also has several 'evolution' videos that are excellent medley mashups: music, Beyonce, Michael Jackson, Ariana Grande,...To see the original, go back the 11th performance of Pentatonix on the SingOff; it's a classic. In fact cover the Home Free and Pentatonix journeys there. It lets you see how each group kind of came into their sound (for Pentatonix, they had literally just come together 1 day prior to their try-out for the show).
Enjoy the acapella rabbit hole and we're happy to have you along for the ride.
And although it took me a few times to really appreciate it, check out the mash up between Home Free and VoicePlay. It is the song Survivor, and they put it together after the sing off or they both appeared and Home Free won. They were supposed to do it for the sing off I believe and it didn’t work out so they decided to do it on their own. It’s called zombies versus hillbillies and it’s just about as crazy as it sounds!
Keep up the Voiceplay-they just welcomed a new member, Cesar De La Rosa (Earl left the group last year and J. None (Anubis, with the scale) recently left to join the Naval Choir. You also should check out some of the stuff by Geoff Castellucci, the Bass, who does mind-blowing solo projects.
But DON’T miss out on Home Free. They’re amazing too!
VoicePlay is best when they mash their vocals with their sense of humor. This was inspired by a health scare one of them had. Welcome to the acapella rabbit hole!
Geoff Castalucci has his own channel that is incredible. He does songs with 4 and 5 part harmonies with himself and also does poetry and short story readings in "that voice".
Always love seeing a first reaction to Voiceplay, they are amazing and they have a pretty big library of fantastic work. I appreciate that you recognized the three longest lasting (still going) band members, Geoff (bass), [El-lee](firecracker/tenor), and Layne (beat-boxer).
Gotta throw in another vote for Trapped, which is their Billie Eilish medley. Not sure if you’re familiar with her music, but they really did something great with it imo. Geoff‘s solo stuff is excellent, as others have mentioned, and his tutorial on how to sing really low is quite fascinating if you’re interested in learning more about what the human voice can do. Thank you for another great reaction, I love to see you expanding your musical horizons and reacting to a whole range of amazing artists from different genres!
And then follow it up with their two-part panic at the disco medley. It completes the story.
So glad you took our recommendation seriously!
For VoicePlay - Warriors, Can't help falling in love, and Oogie Boogie. And for HomeFree - Helplessly Hoping, mayday, and Butts remix
edit: Also VoicePlay Panic in 5 (part 1 and 2)
Check out their Prince Kiss cover it’s fantastic.
Voiceplay is an incredible group with 5 incredibly talented guys. Well, right now only 4 since Earl left....
For the initial foray into the rabbit hole I recommend Oogie Boogie's song, The Bones, Just Sing, Warriors, and "Road Trip-Live"
WOW.....I enjoyed that very much👍👍👍Very entertaining, great voices, very well put together!That Baron Guy has a very interresting voice,for sure🙀Thanks Jim, hope you check uit more. Greetings from the Netherlands👋👋👋
For more Voiceplay mash ups I recommend Trapped and Panic at the Disco part 1 and 2 (in that order) - these all include some cool story lines as well as great vocals.
Yes, I second this wholeheartedly! If you like mashups and creative videos that tell a story, these can't be passed up.
They are known as a country vocal band, but if you enjoy Boyz II Men, Home Free does an outstanding cover of the classic "End Of The Road". ... Guy
He lived. If you look closely he opened his eyes.
Love the way you react. Different and cool.
Suggest "you're a mean one Mr Grinch" and "oogie boogie" from voiceplay. The bass is awesome in them and shows off his range
Hi Jim....I'm a huge fan from Queen so for me it's very diffucult listen to someone else sing their songs...Because Freddie was and still is the LEGEND...however ...these guys have done a good job...nice reaction...good night from Italy to all Queen's community...🇮🇹😉
I discovered all the same acapella groups at about the same time.. my loyalty is with Home Free, but I love them all.. they are soo talented! Geoff Castelucci (Voice Play's bass) helped out Home Free with their arrangement of Elvira I believe.. Simply awesome no matter which group you listen to. There is an all girl group Citizen Queen.. nice, too! Check out Voice Plays Tennessee Whiskey.. am so impressed with it. and of course,.. their cover or Prince's Kiss.. Prince and acapella all together? I'm in heaven. Then.. check out Teddy Swims.. Thanks!
I have watched this video on a lot of other reaction channels. Your channel is the most clear. I have heard notes that i didn't hear before.
He didn't die, he woke up.
Glad to have you get into VoicePlay (Geoff also does solos and a couple of videos on How to Sing Really Low). Let me give you a few (of the more than 800 that VPs done) of my favorites. Nothing Else Matters (my #1), Warriors, Dream On, I Can't Make You Love Me, Running Up That Hill, Dragonborn Comes, Halo Theme, Friends on the Other Side, We Don't Talk About Bruno, Carry On My Wayward Son, Enemy, Little Mermaid, In the Hall of the Mountain King. These will get you started.
No he didn't die, you can see him blinking. :) And yes Layne (vocal percussion) is one of the best.
I really enjoyed your reaction. I would recommend you check out Voiceplay's cover of Oogie Boogie. The bass is the main lead and he shows some major range
check out the bass singer's (Geoff Castellucci) cover of Blackbird and 16 tons. amazing
Geoff Castellucci is a force all his own. His lowest note is E1 subharmonic. He has a 4 1/2 to 5 octave range. Hearing him sing 16 tons is a treat as well. He does many of the arrangements for VoicePlay.
He hit a B0 and the cover of halo. But it wasn’t actually any singing it was “just hitting that note.” I thought it was pretty darn impressive.
OMG Great, especially "Shere Khan" 😊
Yep, they really are this good, and this is their style - kind of musical theatre-style story videos with their amazing vocals. Geoff Castellucci, the bass, has a five-octave range - you HAVE to hear 'Oogie Boogie Song' - Geoff takes lead in that one and makes good use of those five octaves. Oh, and 'This Is Halloween,' 'Boy Bands in Five Minutes' and so many more...
And yes, I used to have trouble believing the beatboxing was actually being done by a human voice. But there's another TH-camr called Xureck who's reacted to some Pentatonix songs and often demonstrates what Kevin does in real time, so you can see it's possible to do (but you have to be hella skilled, and it must take huge stamina.)
He sent all the death dealers away and chose to live.
More Voiceplay! Oogie Boogie, Moana, little Mermaid, we don’t talk about Bruno for a few Enemy is one of their latest videos. Geoff Castalucci has lots of Videos too. His latest is an Elvis cover which is great, Way Low or something like it. Geoff has done many and all are great too!
Echoing many other commenters- Voiceplay's Oogie Boogie Song is absolutely jaw-dropping. This group has also recently released a cover of Eleanor Rigby that will blow your mind. I'd also highly *highly* recommend checking out Geoff Castellucci (the bass singer) and his solo work. His rendition of 16 Tons is flawless, and if you want a better sense of his range, both Blackbird and Radiohead's High and Dry will demonstrate his full range. Spoiler- it's around 5 octaves, all rich and resonant and without a lot of thinning out at the extreme edges. His talent is devastating.
If you want to learn more about the bass, react to a video on his own channel (Geoff Castellucci) titled "how to sing low: a short tutorial"
Also you really should check out his cover of Sixteen Tons on his channel as well
Thats a great idea! thank you!
Love voiceplay and loved your reaction to them!!
No, he lived - the show must go on. Welcome to the fan club of acapella grougs. #VoicePlaya4Life
LOL... 'I like that guy' ... EVERYBODY loves Geoff (Jeff) Castellucci !!
Hoist the Colours is a great new fav!
Fun part: watch the interaction, competition and mocking between the 4 death entities, completely integrated in the songs, specialy when they find Baron boring to go on and on and on and on... or when Baron call Yama Nirvana a loser.
Oogie Boogie! And Geoff's solo stuff is amazing!
Please more Voiceplay....
a joy to watch!
Great reaction
Check out Geoff Castellucci's (The Bass) Headless Horseman and Voiceplays Hoist the Colors
Can you do some more VoicePlay reactions please. Hoist The Colours is amazing xx
No, he defeated the gods of death and triumphed
Oogie boogie. Much better than this and this is pretty good
Great reaction!! I'm sure you get mistaken for Rob schneider :)
You should check out Voiceplay My Mother told me this is another awesome song
So have you ever played Skyrim? See their cover of Dragonborn.... Several surprises.
For more mash ups - Home Free - Country Fried Pop Medley and The Butts Remix
Hey Jim, if you want to make a reaction to "Home Free", pick "Man of constant sorrow". Over 10 Mil klicks can't be wrong... By the way, it's my favourite! 😉
Might want to check back here in a couple hours 😉
If you think that was cool, check out their remake of the Halo theme
Since you like bass...have you checked out Tomi P yet? If not I recommend Hellfire.
nice but for a great Queen song it's got to be PTX of Bohemian Rhapsody
Earle was a real loss for the group when he left.
Please. React to Hallelujah of Silvia Perez Cruz
Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee react to Ez Mil's
