The weird sound during Layne's solo was done by Layne. A general rule with VP is, if you hear weird noises, it's 99% certain it's Layne, lol. It was done by an inhale "woah" sound.😊
Ingressive phonation. It's what Layne also does with the final "Bruno" at the end of "We Don't Talk about Bruno." Sir Hairless taught me that.
@@janeramirez8767 yup! inhale bass is the same as ingressive phonation. Layne uses it quite a lot actually ❤❤
Whenever Layne is in charge and wants a lot of energy, he shoots Cesar’s closeups first. Then the others have to bring up their energy to meet his.
One of my favorite VoicePlay covers AND one of my favorite humans? Definitely excited for this one! 😁
Cesar is the sweetest, sassiest and cutest! 🥰 AND has a wonderful voice! ❤️🎶🔥❤️
The shirt has "VIOLAYNE" on the front, and "A capella It's Better with Instruments" on the back. Yep, I never buy merch but I have that shirt! So great to see Cesar here and chatting with you guys about the music.
Cesar is one of the most precious hooman beans ever! Love his talent and his sass 😁💅💜
i love that term for him. hooman bean
I absolutely adore Cesar.
When Geoff (who did the arrangement) isn't actually singing lyrics in this song, he's busy out-bassing a bass guitar part!
So much fun to hear Cesar talking (for a change!), getting to see his personality outside of VoicePlay videos!
Just so you know, Eli - in this case - is short for Eliezer. Geoff's imagination is phenomenal. How he comes up with his arrangements is beyond me. Ditto Layne of course. And Eli. And of course, Cesar is just adorable. This was brilliant. Thank you.
Fantastic reaction, and what a delight to see Cesar watching himself. And how fascinating to hear about the inner workings of Voiceplay! The arrangers sing ALL the parts? Wow! Amazing! I fell for Cesar the moment he flicked that fan in "We're Good!" He's such a charmer! And I think Geoff has inspired more facial expressions than anyone else! This is one of their best. Who doesn't love it when Eli gets into his rock god mode?
If you want to go down the rabbit hole, Wicked Medley is fabulous
Voiceplay has done a lot of great stuff - but for me this is one of, if not their very best. Musically it is outstanding - which is why I think the 'theater guys' of Acapella music used a stripped down set and muted tones to keep the focus on the music. Excellent reaction, and fun interaction!
I was surprised to find out your reaction was 39 minutes long, it just flew by because it was so interesting.
@Throga
I don't know if you guys caught it, but the Violin Solo was not recorded on the violin in the video. The violin in the video was a cheapie electric violin that looked good that was, for all intents and purposes, a prop. What was recorded for the video and what we actually heard was Layne on his personal violin. So yeah, that was recorded by a Virtuoso Violinist on, presumably, a VERY expensive violin. I would also have to assume Layne brought the violin in to Pattycake and recorded it there in the company's studio so that he could attach all the electronics to it to get the "electric violin" sound needed for the song. I could be wrong, but I doubt Layne has a full electronic/electric setup in his home studio. Also, I would imagine the acoustics in a large, proper, recording studio as opposed to his home studio is vastly different, making recording at Pattycake the more likely scenario.
Also, Fun Fact: Geoff wrote that solo in full a capella. They tried it. Didn't like it. Felt that something was missing. Then Geoff turned to Layne and was like, "VioLayne." Layne agreed and Geoff re-wrote the solo for violin with full a capella backing, or as many reactors have called it: "A Wall Of Sound." I have to imagine that that Patrons were treated with the original full a capella recording of the solo. I could be wrong, but based on everything I've heard about Patreon, VoicePlay treats their Patrons well and gives them all kinds of behind-the-scenes stuff so it would not surprise me if they gifted their Patrons with the full a capella version of that solo.
I’m so happy you’re reacting to nothing else matters. I love this arrangement
Looking forward to this. Voiceplay are my absolute favourite acapella group and Cesar is such a cutie.
I love Cesar. He always makes me smile. When I get a notification for a short I firstly search out Cesar. His facial expressions make my day. His voice is amazing and fits that beautiful face and smile. I believe that smile makes the music coming forth even more grand and appreciative.
Thanks for the wonderful reaction and for sharing Cesar with us. What a wonderful treat. ❤️
The Nothing Else Matters arrangement is nothing short of genius and so extremely well executed. Love these guys - and Cesar is just the furnace nevermind the life of the party! If you watch any of the live performances of the Chicago concert online you will see that he just killed the vocals and brought so much energy to the stage. Can never go wrong with VP. Thank you for this - it was fun!🌹🕊
When I first heard this cover of "Nothing Else Matters," the use of the Am chord after Geoff's part threw me for a loop. I have been covering this song since it came out, and know the song uses an A Major chord and not an Am. Just VoicePlay being VoicePlay; using chord substitutions and making it work.
Cesar seems like such a genuinely kind and wonderful person. I'm such a fan of all the VP guys, but Cesar is one of my favorites. 😊
So much fun watching this! I love getting two for the price of one!
Thanks Richard and Johnny and also Cesar. That was fun. Love getting the inside scoop on VoicePlay. Did you get that silver YT plaque yet?
It’s supposed to arrive in the next two weeks!! And thank you :).
His voice is amazing. Incredibly versatile & he brings such an attitude. His sass is his signature & I’m always here for it! Absolutely delighted that he’s a permanent member of the group. He fits like a puzzle piece.
That was so fun!!! And definitely an amazing reference from Cesar on your training!
We're Good! is such a good cover.
Voiceplay ❤is my absolute favorite! What fabulous people they are. Perfect!
Nice reactions and interview. I have to say, from where I sit, Voiceplay has really been upping their game. Their version of Nothing Else Matters goes WAY beyond nice and amusing. When I first heard/watched it I was like holy crap, this is the shit!
Richard, when I first saw you I thought you were Eli. You & Eli could pass for twins. Thank you both for an awesome interview with Cesar. I absolutely adore him. You must do a reaction video to Voice Plays cover of Hell Fire from The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Geoff is the evil Minister Frolo & his acting skills are on point. Cesar is playing air guitar & his solo in this is amazing . Please please do a reaction video to this. It will blow you away.
Thank you for reacting to what many of us call Metallicappella. I am not a big fan of metal, but the song is glorious. It has surprise a lot of dedicated metalheads.
And thank you for your featured guest! Cesar somehow combines 100% sass with 100% vulnerability. He is never ever predictable for sure! Eli recently did a spectacular solo arrangement of Radiohead’s Creep. Cesar put so much of himself into it that it was probably 20 to 30 viewings before I could watch it without crying. His willingness to be so vulnerable is astonishing.
I’m so glad that you let the patron roll go. In the last few years they have been using their karaoke track during the outro. As someone without any musical training, the karaoke track is especially helpful. I can isolate each person’s contribution more easily. Then when I go back to listen to the entire piece I appreciate it that much more. It’s one of my favorite perks of being a patron.
By the way, Adriana was probably 17 or 18 years years old when they made this. Cesar says he’s the baby but there are a few featured artists that make him the old man! 😂
You really nailed it when you pointed out that they allow each artist to be featured in some way. Sometimes one person is more of a lead, but they’re always careful to highlight each person‘s contribution. I really enjoyed this even more than your other reactions because we got an inside view of the process.
I would love to see you interview Geoff to get his take. And then just for the pure enjoyment, interview Layne . He is not only brilliant but hilarious and has some of the most organic beatboxing sounds I’ve heard. Many people say he swallowed a drum kit, but I believe he swallowed a drum kit, a synthesizer, and possibly an alien. I would love to see you react to their cover of In the Hall of the Mountain King by Grieg. It’s definitely a Layne
production. It is so unique and updates a classical piece into modern comedy.
You have to watch their cover for “creep” where Cesar “shine”
Nobody can make me cry like Cesar can. I love him.
@@marshayoung9387 agreed...the apparent agony in his expression in that video brought me to tears
This was one of the most enjoyable reactions, songs, discussions and stories I have had yet!! I had listened to you before, but I am now a happy subscriber!!
Glad you enjoyed!
Sounds like a great way to start the weekend.
Cesar is just the sweetest!
Yay!!! Super excited to see this!
This was fun! I had not heard of VoicePlay until a day or so ago, and the fact that you know one of the members, is awesome! They are such a versatile group, with marvelous color, and a cornucopia of tones, and musical awesomeness! Thanks for sharing this incredible artist, and group!!
So much fun and talent
Thank you for discussing Cesar’s unique and absolutely gorgeous vocal tone. I feel like everybody notices Geoff-don’t get me wrong, he’s fabulous-but Cesar has done some beautiful things (the guitar bit in Hellfire, for example) with nowhere near the credit he deserves. I’d love to see VP do more like We’re Good where he really gets to let go. (I also kind of want to adopt him. LOL.)
Can you imagine how exciting it would be to arrange a song for Chicago??? (Is there a swoon emoji?)
Another great reaction and an extra plus of having Cesar there with you. I got to learn more about your history and some of the things you have done, so lots of fun. Big question is what is coming next?
I love VoicePlay so much and I love Cesar first ft one which is Butter by BTS who also had Deejay Young. I also love Cesar in We Don't Talk About Bruno.
They are just so incredibly talented and you have to honor that! please check out more of them!! ❤🙏🙏cool Interview 👍👍🫶
A very nice session, in many aspects. 😊
The sass in that fan snap was just so on point.
This was so much fun! Cesar is everything you said, plus adorable. I'm glad he told you how to pronounce Eli's name, but he didn't tell you that it's short for Eliezer (pronounced elly AY zer). When someone told me that, it all made sense. ETA: Sorry, I just read some of the other comments and I see that everything I said has already been said by others. Oh well, comments help the algorithm, right?
So excited for this!!!
YES!!!!!! Thank you Cesar! For some reason, it really bothers me when folks pronounce his name wrong.
I accidentally came across Geoff Castellucci on RUclips. Through him I discovered VoicePlay. Geoff is my all time favorite male vocalist and now VoicePlay is my favorite acapella group.They are both amazing. I would like to respectfully request that you react to my favorite female vocalist. A 19 year old, soon to be 20 year old young British girl by the name of Lucy Thomas. She has her own RUclips channel called lucythomasmusic. I think you will be greatly impressed.
Love them and Cesar has great stage presence ... He is great in the interview!
Watching the ads before the video, clapping excitedly cause I cannot wait for this. How has this only showed up in my recommended videos now?!
This cover is one of my favorites from VoicePlay and Nothing Else Matters!! These guys are amazing!!❤❤❤❤❤
This is good!
I've been loving your reactions to Voiceplay's/Geoff's content, and hope you keep it coming!
Great to watch this wonderful song beautifully done by @voiceplay … hear your comments and hear from Cesar…. They seem so happy singing it… like..we belong here doing this….. great job guys❤❤❤
Hola desde Argentina... Ohhh... César!!!... Que hermosa persona!... Me encantó cuando quedó incorporado al grupo a capella que mas amo... Felicitaciones Cesar por tu impecable trabajo y tu inmensa alegria e intensidad que aportas al grupo... Te quiero mucho❤... Un abrazo a la distancia!!!!😊
Спасибо за прекрасное музыкальное открытие для меня этой группы! Обожаю акапелло!
I’ve been waiting until just the right moment to watch this one. Tonight was that time. Loved it!
This was ridiculously awesome (as always)! So many thoughts, but I’ll limit it to two:
* There’s an Aussie reactor (@dj_410) who, simply put, loses his mind (in the best way possible) over Cesar-the voice, his vibe, AND their mutual appreciation for Power Ranger paraphernalia. I would venture to guess he wouldn’t be mad if *someone* introduced the two of them.🙂
* I know for a fact, I wouldn’t be mad if PentaDad and Piano Daddy decided to star in a buddy-cop style tv show titled “Who’s Your Daddy?” where the P-Daddies solve crimes using their combined genius of song-writing and cement-mixing to save the day. Richard, you, of course, would be amazing in the Bosley-esque role of narrating and and sending them on their weekly missions. The theme song would be Chicago’s 25 Or 6 To 4. Obviously.
Hahahahaha I love your mind!!
@@Throga, I honestly could not stop thinking about this all day, so I repurposed some Starsky & Hutch opening credits, and mocked-up some credits for "Who's Your Daddy?" Consider this my first (and probably last) attempt at any sort of fan fiction for anybody or anything. I think we can all agree that it is best that I'm neither a video editor nor a sound engineer IRL, but nonetheless, it was fun to build, and thanks again to both of you (and PentaDad) for having such a great channel! ruclips.net/video/e3xKvUXYAho/видео.html
What a lovely reaction and visit with an awesome human being! Nothing Else Matters is a masterpiece, and We're Good brought someone wonderful into the mix. But Richard and Johnny, if you're big fans of Mr. De La Rosa (and can handle a severe case of mood whiplash,) I urge you to check out VoicePlay's covers of both BTS's Butter, and Creep by Radiohead.
And I Can't Make You Love Me. It's featuring EJ Cardona but it's really Cesar's song.
@@maskedmallard537 Yes, and another commenter just reminded me that he was amazing in We Don't Talk About Bruno! And Hoist the Colours and Remember Me and In The Air Tonight and...you can't tell I have a favorite, can you 😆
Looking forward to it... 🎉❤
VoicePlay and Cesar are top tier. I'm always discovering new delights in every thing they do.
I am always slightly concerned about their workloads as they are producing such high quality content at such a rapid pace and without a big support system. But, I am also a glutton for their stuff.
Cesar is an exceptional addition to the group because of vocal quality and range plus engaging presence.
Cesar is very talented and has one of the smoothest voices I've ever heard.❤ He is very special and undoubtedly deserves the love and recognition he is receiving. 🙌❤
This was fabulous! I love when you guys have Cesar on your VP reactions. He is just so warm-hearted and fun.
Fantastic!
First time I ever heard VP I was immediately a SUPER FAN. And, let's talk about Cesar. OMG, I fell in love with him from his FIRST note. He is EAR CANDY for me EVERY time. I delight in how he fits with the group and rounds them out for me. Thank you for bringing this chat to me.
This was so fun to watch with Cesar! Now you guys should put Dream On and Valhalla Calling by Voiceplay on your list to watch. Seven Nation Army is also awesome as well as their cover of Hellfire.
We did Valhalla already - incredible!!
@@Throga ohhh, I'll go find it. Thanks!
Loved this!
Love this! I also would like to highly recommend you check out a legendary K-Pop group call Shinee (shiny). 15 years and going ... Amazing group and solo artists!
cesar is so freaking cute! ❤
love this
Voice Play does mp3 & karoke tracks to most of their songs & so does Geoff. On their patreon channels
Great Reaction and Cesar de la Rosa is hysterical.
We LOVE Cesar!
So much fun watching you three. You so have to react to Voiceplay’s version of Hall of the Mountain King. And Cesar does a rip your heart out version of Creep with Voiceplay.
This was on Metallica's Black Album so their stagework is designed as such. Love We're Good and so happy to have Cesar. React to I Can't Make You Love Me (Bonnie Raitt) and listen to Cesar's first verse.
I’m always drawn to minor key songs and thus this is one of my favorites from Metallica. And now I’m adding VP’s version to my favorites list.
I sure wish you would react to Home Free. Their latest song is "Skull and Bones". They wrote it for an upcoming video game by the same name.
Оболдеть!!! Выше крыши!!! Фантастика!!! Возвышенно!!! Спасибо!!! 👏👏👏👍🎤🎹💯💥👍🤗♥️🤝🌹🌹🌹🇹🇩
I love some collective fangirling over geoff 😆
But they are all so incredible!
wow, how low can the bass go??? 😮 on another note, loved this 🥰 also loved this music a lot
Check out creep!
When I first saw you Richard I had to do a double take because I thought you were Eli from Voice Play. You both could pass for twins. Also I absolutely adore Cesar. He is my favorite of the group. Sorry Geoff but Cesar stole your place.
and we finally found Richard’s doppelgänger 😅
Loved this! And please react to Creep. Tears the first many times I listened to it.
Want a karaoke version (i.e. what is featured in the outro of the video for NEM)?
Become a patron.
It's an amazing perk. 😊
(Lol. I commented before Cesar came on. 😂😂😂)
That's VioLayne!
Hi gentlemen, it’s something different, but could you do VoicePlay Classical Chaos? It is different because they don’t use words but the vocalizations convey not only beauty but emotions and tell a story with about ten or eleven different pieces of music.
Ooohh interesting!! Thank you for the recommendation and support :)
❤❤❤❤❤❤ DIMASH OLÍMPICO , SINFUL , PASION , ADAGIO PLEASE.💗🥰😘🙏
Please react to Almira Lat singing her bridal song "He knows" . The voice is amazing ♥️♥️♥️
Just in case Cesar see this...I understand you had a different fan in "Jingle Bell Rock." Now that you've got two, you can start a club! (Get it? A "fan club?" Ha ha? Yeah, I'll show myself out...)

Waiting you guys react to Gigi De Lana's cover of "Better Days" 😊😊😊
At the beginning of this song, Geoff is actually singing the original Metallica guitar line.
VioLayne strikes again. :)
#CESARDELAROSA #VOICEPLAY
Can I still access your reaction to BTS 7 songs we missed? Thank you
yes - it's in our BTS playlist :)
Please react to ONE SWEET DAY cover by katrina velarde, boguy, darly ong and michael pangilinan. Thank you in advance😊♥️
It sounds like "Elly" pronounced like "jelly".
Johnny, a question for you. I know you have fur babies, but now that Cesar has named you Piano Dad, do you have a new baby? A baby grand?
Hahahaha
If sassy Cesar isn't you're favourite diva then I have concerns about you because you clearly aren't paying attention😂😂
Buwan and ere of juan karlos labajo pls..
Eli's name is pronounced L-E
That fact will continue to go over their heads every time they listen to Voiceplay. It's kind of irritating.
Cesar corrected us - we got it now!
