    For the final week before Halloween reactions start, I’ve decided to release Geoff’s amazing and super fun version of “The Bare Necessities” from The Jungle Book. I think Geoff does a brilliant job by making the song his own while adding some glorious bassiness! Please enjoy :)

    His creativity is what's so impressive, apart from the voice. Whether in VoicePlay or alone, his arrangements are more than impressive. If you haven't yet, check out VoicePlay's Hoist The Colours. He does talk about his comfort zone in his videos about how to sing low, or very low. And he's so much fun. He uses a guitar plug in on Country Roads too.

    I'm so glad you reacted to Bare Necessities! I think this one gets a little overshadowed by his more recent covers, but it has a special place in my heart because this appearing across my RUclips dash one day is what introduced me to Geoff first and then later VoicePlay. One thing about the southern accent you mentioned around 8:30 - I've noticed that Geoff either lets his native Virginian accent out or exaggerates it more with some of his solo stuff. You hear it in this, Mele Kalikimaka, Country Roads and HotRS (probably others, but those are the ones where it really stood out to me). He seems to mask it almost completely in his stuff with VoicePlay, and you only hear it in the odd word when he's speaking.

    Peter! I think you also must watch and analize the cover of Home Free "Your Man" (Josh Turner), where Tim gifts us and to the world his wide and crazy vocal range: he goes totally bass and totally tenor in a fly. And also its super interesting to make an analysis from someone who is a professional in music/voice field. From Spain, lots of hugs! :)

  • @maloxi1472
    @maloxi1472 2 года назад

    It's crazy how easy he makes these G1s sound. I can relax all I want and cannot manage to go past G#1. It's like there is a 100ft wall between G1 and all the higher notes with "true basses only" written on it 😄

    Hi. Thanks for the reaction video, that was great. Have you ever reacted to Tim Storms singing lonesome road? If not, it would be interesting to react to this singer. The guy has the Guinness record for the lowest note in the world and also vocal range. React to him please, it will be really cool.

He has a lite Bass sound and a Baritone. I love his sound. Never really heard him before. I loved the Harmony 4 part and then the various changes. The fo it r parts together is beautiful. Is this what he does, he is a solo artist and an stranger?

  • @lindalamuzz6824
    @lindalamuzz6824 2 года назад

    I love your analyses. You obviously love music and musicians and have good technical knowledge. I know you focus mostly on bass singers as it’s your specialty, but I think you also like singers who have excellent vocal yech inquest. You should listen to a young man named Dimash Kudaibergen. His vocal range is extreme…he’s a counter tenor who can get down into bass range from highest soprano level. More importantly, his vocal techniques and many many textures make him a fascinating person to listen to. He’s been called the best singer in the world by many. He has a lot of training in bel canto and also has studied jazz and pop. I suggest you begin with his Omni Pietra to get a sense of his range and quality. Then perhaps Stranger to hear something with some contemporary vibes. After that, go nuts! Every piece he does is unique and surprising. I will be waiting with bated breath to see what your reaction is! Thanks!
