The background vocals were all Geoff too. I'm surprised you didn't note his high notes.
bro probably didnt notice it was him from how high it is. geoff's crazy
He said all of this was in full voice; no subharmonics.
I could clearly hear a subharmonic on the last, low bass note. I checked it with a spectrum analyzer and could clearly see the primary was at 80Hz and the sub was at 40Hz (E1).
@@johndeeregreen4592 I'm just telling you what Geoff said.
@@johndeeregreen4592 the last note isn't even an E1, it's a G#1 so I think you made a mistake somewhere.
@@lapislazuli2896, it's hard to get a clean spectrum on him. His timbre and harmonics are so rich, he throws spikes all over the place... this is why he sounds so damn good, though.
@@johndeeregreen4592 he's clearly singing in chest tho
Can we take a moment to appreciate that Geoff also accompanied himself crazily high but on point?❤️
Not sure if you were aware but this entire song he sang it in chest voice. No subharmonics!
I think the higher parts may have been head voice, not chest voice. Just saying’. 😉
@@DennisKovacich he’s talking about the low notes
@@crunchycrackers7364, is he? He said, “this entire song.”
@@DennisKovacich yea Geoff said, on the live chat and in the comments I believe that, everything was full-voiced
@@crunchycrackers7364, “full-voiced” just means he didn’t use special techniques like subharmonics. Head voice is just a higher range but still full voice.
Oh I love me some Geoff, what a voice 🥰
I'm looking forward to your reaction to "high and dry" by Geoff.
Yay! I've been hoping you'd react to Geoff's work again! Would you consider reacting to his cover of High and Dry? If you want to really be impressed by his range, that's the one to listen to.
Great reaction! I agree with you that Sixteen Tons is perfect, but Geoff says one of the background singers makes a mistake near the end. I've never been able to catch it, but I'll take his word for it. 🙂
I just saw it. It is the one to the lead Geoff's right, he goes to tap the shovel when he wasn't supposed to. It's toward the end.
My tuner hit a low of G1 a couple of times! Impressive control, definitely one of the more melodious low bass singers.
There was an F#1 in the last i owe my soul (5:18)
I’d love for you to check out high and dry.
It shows his vocal ability to the fullest imo
What's funny is you mention tricks to sing lower. Geoff himself actually has a video talking about a few techniques people use to sing low. A good example is Vocal frying. He explained it as similar to the same feeling of clearing your throat because it uses the same muscle groups. I had actually been doing it for years but never knew what it was called until I saw his video. I was like "I literally taught myself how to rumble my voice like that to try and make the grudge noise. I didn't think it was a singing technique." XD
You should check out Tim Foust’s cover of “The Long Black Train”. He collaborated with Chris Rupp and its epic.
I second all the people saying that you should also check out his "High and Dry" cover! It's a work of art and shows his abilities so well.
Geoff's version of Bare Necessities is delightful! I highly recommend it.
: ) You know, Avi Kaplan did a song with Peter Hollens! “Black is the Color of My True Love’s Hair”, oooohooolllybass. I took a peruse back through your videos again and it really is a shame you didn’t vibe with Hozier, I totally understood what you were saying, but hoooollly cow his voice is usually so beautiful! Maybe check out his cover of Arctic Monkeys’ “Do I Wanna Know” or something from his Together At Home contributions for Global Citizen.
Just out of curiosity, I googled "original key of 16 tons" and got an answer of E minor.
And this is in B minor! So a forth lower...I think?
Edit: that’s before the key change at 4:30 which transposes it to C# minor
lol. I just now looked that up and left the same comment above...... lol. I should have read the comments first. :)
@@Marcell0Bass I think it begins in F#min then changes into G#min
Still waiting for the, "Singer tries 'insert method of singing' series" . Please make this a thing. I do so enjoy your singing.
I'm old enough to remember the Ol' Pea Picker Tennessee Ernie Ford and have an old double album of his called "Yesterday and Today". Thanks for sharing this version of one of his greatest songs. Now I have to go put the old record on and give it a listen.
YES YES YES!! I was so excited for this reaction. That was so awesome! Thank you very much!❤️
I just love watching reactions to Geoff! Especially this guy, he knows his stuff which makes it so interesting!
We love Tim and Geoff but I think you should react to "Black is the color of my true love's hair" Avi really has a smooth and round sound even in the lowest register, its worth a watch. Nice reaction as always btw
The original was by Merle Travis in 1947 but it was a huge hit for Tennessee Ernie Ford in 1955. My late mother had both versions in her record library. This one is closer to Ford's version, but it pulls in something from Johnny Cash's version. "Low Bass Cover" indeed.
I was gonna say the same thing lol ruclips.net/video/5pfVvqLM_e4/видео.html
3:57 Cool advice! I'm gonna start smoking and drinking vodka so I can sing like Geoff!
until you get mouth cancer and you have to get your larynx removed and you can't sing at all anymore. Some better advice if you really must are to eat a more testosterone rich diet or to have your voice surgically altered or get implants/fatty injections to bulk up your chords.
@@ambrosekillpack4841 I don't think that's better advice
Wouldn't you just love to hear his version of Jimmy Deans " Big Bad John"
OMG I never thought of that, that would be 👌
I wanna hear Geoff cover Bismarck by Johnny Horton
Well haven't I got good news for you, he just uploaded that song!
@@wolfcryjr Being a patron has its advantages of seeing it days before it's released to the public and we even get to pick the Thumbnail.
He did big bad John and man is it good!
Yaaaaaaay, I've been waiting for a new Geoff reaction video!
Chest voice I think is what he did with this song. All is awesome
best part is how excited you get just watching people sing
All five of him singing as one. Beautiful reaction.
Another great cover by Geoff for you to check out would be High and Dry, his range in that one is incredible
You smile the way I do listening to Geoff. :) I love that.
Your videos are always so much fun to watch, and your wordplay is always a treat! Keep up the wonderful work! 😀
when i was younger, i had a very impressive range, with my lowest note at a high baritone/low tenor range and at the highest I sang Defying Gravity. I've always had this thing where when i get a cold, instead of really /losing/ range, it just... shifted. Down. Sometimes a couple notes, sometimes a whole half-octave, and once it shifted so low, I managed to match a Johnny Cash song. It has never happened again and I yearn for those days.
Wachtched allready some of your Videos and a lot of Geoff's. Ist a good mix, love it.
Yay!! So glad you reacted to this. You should react to Tomi P's cover if Hellfire, his range is incredible
His version of High and Dry really shows his high range also.
Awesome, love it! Thank you so much for reacting to all these and for taking community suggestions that makes things even more fun!
And while we're talking about the titans for contemporary bass voices!! I'd love love love to see your reaction to Avi Kaplan's Full Moon!
Geoff = 🤘❣️🤘
Thank you so much for reacting to this!
I have no need to repeat what others said, so I shall say that VoicePlay has a new video coming out tomorrow and it’s really good.
You mean 'bang'?
@@redlophix5670 At the time I DIDNT want to spoil the song title
@@sprumf ahh okay
I definitely subscribed. I love your energy
He reminds me of a blend between Tim and Avi.
I subbed to my favorite vocal coach. Keep up the good work!
I subscribed!!!🎉🎉🎊🎊🎈🎈
I've been waiting for you to react to this one!!
I cannot unhear Stray Cat Strut in this song now that I picked up the melody...
Still love the song - Maybe love it more so!
ETA:
C'mon Ken! Everyone knows you drink bourbon to get a lower voice - Not vodka!
Finally I've got a music version I can sing! My voice tone is low just like Geoff's 😍
Man I truly enjoy your videos and me being a singer all threw school music and singing is the best therapy I subscribe great job!!
Ken speaking of Home Free , I really recommend their cover of "Helplessly Hoping" by Crosby, Stills and Nash ... it's wonderful , I think you would really like it also ...
I love Ernie Ford's version but Geoff has done a fabulous job with his version. He has certainly made it his own.
Ernie also did an upbeat version of this song. (called the 'Go Go' version) find it here: ruclips.net/video/92arUrGVt6k/видео.html PLEASE! Check it out. 😊 Cheers, Steve
Also note ernies version was a cover aswell the og Merle Travis can be found here ruclips.net/video/5pfVvqLM_e4/видео.html
Nice reaction! This is my favorite arrangement he's done
Yessss! You did this song! Yay!
Now you need to react to Home Free's rendition of When a Man Loves a Woman. You will not be disappointed. 😁
The harmonies? His incredible range? The high notes? No mention or comment on anything other than Geoffs bass notes.
One of my all time favorites. This is done very very well! Thanks here from a new subscriber.
Subscribed! Ive really enjoyed your videos, especially on Geoff
Awesome!! You should definitely check out his cover of High and Dry!!!!
This is great. Beautiful tones and four sleeveless Geoffs. Not a bad day😂
If u haven’t heard his black birds worth a listen, I could listen to his voice all day
Ok nm just flicked thou your Chanel lol it’s already there 👍
Am I sure that many of us would like to hear you react to the cover of "Hellfire" by Tomi P (from Hunchback of Notre Dame). It was released recently. Talk about a range........
3 days of rehearsing with this song, and given i can hit all of his notes disregarding the subharmonics before i even learned how to do subharmonics i got a fairly good understanding of them now, and if anyone wants to learn how to get into subharmonics its a fun thing to do
You seem like a very nice person. Keep up the good work
I’m new love your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
amazing
Subscribed. Love your reactions
Wow so deep nice though
Would love to see you check out some more of his stuff!
Please react to Peter Hollans hobbit drinking medley!!!its amazing!!like so he will see it! My son loves this channel and loves the medley its would be such a nice thing for his birthday!!!!
Have a look at "Bang" - voiceplay
I'd love to see your thoughts on Skindred. They're a ragga/nu-metal band from Wales, and their style flows between the two genres, and sometimes add some extra elements too. Kill The Power especially has juuuuust a hint of old skool hip hop mixed in. Check them out!
Glad you reacted to this. You have entertaining reactions to Morissette, Katrina, So Hyang and Geoff. Which made realize that Morissette and Geoff have the combined range that falls off the piano on both ends.
Very cool I love his voice. I love singing low but can't go that far.
I subscribed!
cant wait for a reaction to falling in reverse's song "im not a vampire revamped". I re-imagined song of a old one. i think you'd love it!
I subscribed to you ken Lavigne
You should totally react to Tomi Pizur's cover of "Hellfire" from Hunchback of Notre Dame. He uses 6 octaves in that cover and it blows me away each time
I subscribed ✌️💚😁
I’m a smoker and a liquor drinker and I hated my voice register before but now I can hit decent bass notes so it’s a solid plan
16 tons... is obviously a description of his nards.
Don't know what you mean. Tell us... What are "nards?" 🎳🎳❓😁
What is this?? 1992?
@@pacificcoastpiper3949 🤣😂😅😅😆😆🤣🤣😂😅
I'm a baritone/upper bass. I need to find the right people to help train me how to sing properly.
I SUBCRIBED!!!!!! YES!!
Rick K. -Athens Texas
Hi from texas
I guess I'm old.😁 I watched his show on tv. 😂 Saw him on I love Lucy too.
High and Dry" by Geoff Castellucci shows his huge range so check it out!
Vodka?.. That's sacrilege..everybody knows it's either scotch or whiskey. ;) Great video.
Fun!!!
"All your bass (vocalists) belong to us" :=)
Реально бесподобный мужик, спасибо
The reaction of a bass singer to this video mentioned that he thought it was a touch "over-darkened" and he speculated that it was caused by who Geoff has as his own favorites.
But honestly it's as close to perfect as it can get really.
I have checked out how to sing low by Geoff. I'm a 70yr old woman and I have gotten considerably lower range!
i Have subscribed
Great reaction thank you. I think Mr. Ford would definitely have approved. Mr. Ford's song was controversial back in the day. He was singing about the plight of many coal workers back in the 1950's that made many Americans feel more than a little uncomfortable. I am a new subscriber as of today. Have you ever heard of the Harp Twins. They have quite a performance library. Check out their song called The Daemon Lover. It is wonderful.
I subscribed to you
I feel like Salieri after hearing Geoff sing.
Please don't poison our Geoff 😉
Having a lengthy untreated thyroid infection apparently also helps with lengthening those vocal chords, from mezzo to contralto in my case ;)
Merle Travis wrote this, and composed it, nice guitar player
I once met a Ukrainian construction worker. He lit one cigarette from another, drunk vodka and his voice was Geoff at his lows all the time. All Ukrainians seem to be good at lower tones.
Gin, my dear. It is gin which gives one the deep raspy voice.
What a great remake of the Tenn Ernie Ford classic.
You should react to swissbeatbox community, you will get to see the demon bass as well as alien bass too, 100% vocal.
Would like to see Geoff cover "C'est Moi" from Camelot
