Geoff said it was one of his most difficult songs because of the vocal acrobatics. Geoff shows us his remarkable acting talent . The original singer/actor doesn't show the emotion in his voice & can't act. The same goes for all the other cover songs. Geoff really knows how to reach deep down into your soul.
The way he can project, how long he can sustain those lows, and how he's able to clearly enunciate the lyrics are something that never ceases to amaze me.
I looove how he just casually flips from low to high and back in this! There are other people who have lower voices, but Geoff’s vocal gymnastics are first rate!
May I humbly suggest that you check out Tim Foust and his performance of Will you still love me Tomorrow/Stay, there aren’t a lot of low notes, surprising because he’s a bass (who taught Geoff some of the techniques he uses to achieve his low notes) but the range on the man is unfair
@@RemWinchesterFor me I would add Marwan Ayman from The Bass Gang. They’re all good, but there’s something about the quality of his voice that I really enjoy and he has the widest range. Watch one of his buildups sometime on shorts. He’ll do the tenor to the baritone, bass and all the beatboxing and then puts it all together at the end. They’re short but they are amazing.
Truly a special performance by Geoff. He is the Pumpkin King!! His arrangement and vocal acrobatics created the mystical, magical effect of Jack. Really enjoyed your reaction. Ty.
Thanks, Danielle. A great song, and interesting comments on his vocals. He's famous for his low notes, but I really enjoy listening to his entire range, especially in the harmonies.
I call this the rollercoaster of his ranges. He goes up and down like a rollercoaster. My favorite part is when he sings the part about taking off his head. I love the tempo. Very fun to sing with.
Looking forward to this reaction to Geoff's Halloween release last year! So impressive! I love that the outro shows some behind-the-scenes and Kathy doing Zero puppetry.
Loved your reaction to this. This song really is a good showcase for Geoff’s vocal agility. A little behind the scenes tidbit, Geoff will normally split up his recording day, singing his lower parts first thing in the morning and then record any higher parts later in the day. For this song Geoff actually made it harder on himself and recorded it sequentially, except for the “scream like I can” part for the last part of this recording because he knew his voice would be done for the day after that.
This is such a heartbreakingly lament. Geoff knows how to do this in SPADES! Don't forget to watch his outro. During the Patreon list he's doing the piano during the snowstorm. He and Kathy raided their yard and house for all the props. Kathy shows how Zero comes to life in front of the green screen. See Geoff get some of the makeup done from his hands to face.
Geoff is an amazing singer with smooth vocals, he hits several (F#1s) in chest in this song listed below 3:39 F#1 chest 3:45 E1 subharmonic 5:09 A1 chest 5:22 F#1 chest 5:46 F#1 chest 5:59 F#1 chest
I'm really glad that you're back to doing Voiceplay. I was just looking through you VP reactions and was shocked to find that you haven't done Nothing Else Matters, their true masterpiece. Soon, please?
@Danielle Marie If you haven't, you should check out Geoff Castellucci's "Tea Time Interview" with Elizabeth Zharoff on her RUclips Channel "The Charismatic Voice." He's actually asked about his bass singing and he said that when he sings low, he doesn't actually sing loud. In fact, he sings quiet to ensure he can produce the tonal quality we hear. The volume of his voice is all boosted by his microphone and in post. He said if he actually tried to project his bass notes, it would destroy his vocal chords and it would sound like crap because of the aforementioned vocal chord destruction. Basically, "If I were to sing bass loud, it wouldn't sound nearly as good and would hurt me in the process." You really should check out that interview if you haven't. It's really fascinating. She also has an interview with Tim Foust on her Channel that is equally as fascinating. All of that being said, Geoff Castellucci is INSANE!!
Have you seen the live video of Geoff performing the Song Grace Kelly with the group called Toxic Audio? When Geoff did his high note at the end watch how far away he held the mic. He can get more volume on the higher end of his range than he can in his lower range.
Just FYI, Layne 's production company Pattycake Productions i coming out with a tribute video to 85 years of the Wicked Witch featuring the Broadway singer of the original production. Im sure it will be amazin. As for Geoff, the vocals, the production, the makeup, the acting, all flawless. He invites you into his world completely every time! ❤😊
@@BetsySchiller-sj2sm Just FYI - it IS already on their Patreon. Just $5 a video gets one early access, previous to the RUclips posting! I find it well worth it!
@@daniellemariesings Time for a deep dive for you! He and Tony (Wakim, previously part of VoicePlay) write original music for their productions. Then produce & direct the videos. Most of VoicePlay's and Geoff's videos are also shot at PattyCake.
It's like watching a 6'6" basketball player... most of us genetically aren't that tall. His voice sounded almost fake but I think that's just how consistent his tone and vocal timber is. Was convinced of this when going to his channel and seeing his sing low tutorial. Amazing.
I think the lowest note that Geoff hits in this is an F#1 or F1 (don't remember for sure - see Peter Barber's A&R, as he always checks Geoff's low notes, being a bass singer himself). So, yeah, about 6 notes from the low end of a piano is about right! And Geoff's attention to detail in these videos - check out his chest through his open shirt (not a hard thing to do, I'm sure!) and you'll see that Rick Underwood, the makeup artist used for this (and many VoicePlay videos) sprayed the "gaps" in between Geoff's ribs for the skeletonized look.
According to Geoff he is not the loudest bass singer, so being able to hear him sing F#1s and lower is mostly due to a good sound system. Judging from his unedited shorts he can still sing an audible Bb1/A1 which is mighty impressive for someone that hasn't trained as an oktavist.
Yeah, the thing with Geoff is that his range isn't just large. He owns those octaves. They're his. He doesn't own all six all the time, but he for sure is the boss of at least four of them. The way he effortlessly skips around is absolutely disgusting in the most "I'm seriously jealous because I thought I was good at jumping octaves until I saw this" way possible.
There’s a moment in “Ain’t No Sunshine” where he just casually drops like 3 octaves for one note. Then he continues back up where he was like that didn’t just happened.
I highly recommend you check out Voiceplay's cover of "Enemy" by Imagine Dragons (the original was written for the Arcane TV series). It's my favorite Voiceplay song to date, and everybody gets to do some crazy new thing you've likely never heard them do before.
Hi Geoff does it very well I was wondering have you heard marscleto polmoa do the song the prayer sorry I may havei miss spelled the name love watching your reactions
Hi Danielle, I'm a big fan of your reaction videos, especially for Elaine Duran’s performances and covers! I’d love to see your reaction to her latest cover, Heartbreak Medley (featuring "Someday," "I Love You Goodbye," and "Now That You’re Gone"). It’s an emotional mix of heartbreak songs that really shows her vocal depth. Looking forward to your thoughts on it! Thanks, Danielle!
Geoff has several videos on his channel to teach people how to sing really low. In at least one of them, he mentions not being able to get a lot of volume so he has to get really close to the microphone. That might have been with subharmonics. It’s been a long time since I saw it.
Are you possibly confusing Geoff(bass for VoicePlay) with Tim Foust (bass for Home Free). Like Geoff, Tim has an amazing range also and he did release a version of a medley of 'Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?' and 'Stay'. I agree that it is superb!
You don't have to apologize for explaining something. Your reaction is the entire reason for this video. If someone gets upset with your reaction to a video then they shouldn't watch a reaction video
I do get that low on a good day. But i dont get the foghorn quality. I can fill a several spots semitruck repair shop with bass but not that low. And of course not with that quality.
I’m not a vocal expert-so I view this from a different angle than you (I’m an author, lol). So I hope you’ll take that into account when I say that I disagree with you about the harmonies… it would *sound* amazing, but I really think it would take away from the effect, of him singing about this longing in his soul and this deep feeling of loneliness that comes across in the song. Because of that, I *personally* (because when it comes to these types of things, it is a matter of opinion, isn’t it?), think he was very smart in how he scattered in subtle harmonies throughout the song, while keeping the main melody mostly bare of harmonic accents. But like I said, that’s just my personal opinion. And I only left said personal opinion here because I find *I* enjoy hearing other people’s perspective on things… because if nothing else it brings a greater depth to my appreciation of art. Anyway, I digress. But I hope this finds you well!

His voice is just so rich on this cover... and so beautiful... 🌹🕊
This is an awesome song, it's always so much fun to see what Geoff is going to come up with next.

@@davelister2 Geoff and Tim have both ruined me for other low voices. I no longer have ANY idea what a "normal" bass sounds like. 😆

Try Geoff’s rendition of “High and Dry”. Full 5+ octave range on full display!
If I HAD to pick my ONE favorite performance from Geoff... this is it.
Mine is Song Of Durin, but this is firmly in second place. Then Unshaken.😊

I’ve seen him perform live. It’s real. There’s just a fullness that you just don’t get from most bass singers.
You should react to his cover of Elvis' song, 'Way Down.' Its not one of his more popular covers, but I really liked it.
The Headless Horseman by Geoff is one of my favorites
loved it
Let's just face it, Geoff is a master vocalist.
Definitely Geoff's latest, Carol of the Bell's! It may be his best!

The lowest note is an E1 subharmonic and lowest chest is a F#1 i believe

I highly recommend his version of ‘Stay just a little bit longer’

How come is that you can tell about the projection? it's recorded.
Because you can still hear projection in a recording. 😊
The low note is a E1 he can go lower than this.
