    This song was from our high school days (im the same age as Eli, Layne, and Geoff...and grew up in the same geographical area as them) Im guessing, much like Creep, its taking them back to their origins/favorite music growing up. Add in the videogame factor and it's a 🎯. I have no idea how they keep just getting better and leveling up. Love that Eli is also doing some arranging more often. He and Layne absolutely killed this. They all shone soooo well. Cesars entrance is just perfection to set the tone....and then the black hole of their talent swallows our brains!!

    Every time Eli and Anthony team up, expect something on another level. I went into this thinking it's impossible to pull off, but then I remembered "Nothing Else Matters" exists. Eli packed this song full of explosives and blew it into outer space. The nostalgia is real in this one. This song came out my Freshman year. I became a grunge girl thanks to Soundgarden. Loved your reaction, man. Great expressions, great insight.

    Agree-if you haven’t seen a Qofy reaction to a Voiceplay song, get busy! Start with Hoist the Colours, because.. well, you’ll see. The reaction is so funny that other reactors reacted to it.
    Time for a reboot, Qofy. We all had a system crash first time through.
    In case anybody was wondering that high note of Anthony’s was an Eb5, I think (could be 6-someone correct me if so, as I have trouble matching voices to a keyboard up there or down around octave 1).

    Personally, I like VoicePlay's version over SoundGarden's. I felt a great more variety and emotion in this from them. I especially loved Eli's energy - to the point where he even couldn't stay sitting at one point! In the original, the energy was more in the instruments than the voice. And Cesar's voice at the start was just gorgeous!
    One of my fave parts was the bit where they were singing 'black', 'hole', 'sun' as the background vocals - as if the words were 'ooo's or 'aah's. Kind of spattering along. Reminded me of raindrops, so cool with the rainy visual to go with the lyrics. As for the visuals - all the 'neon' reminded me of part of "BladeRunner" then add the rooftop setting to complete that idea of the CyberPunk ending of replicant Roy's 'death'. So cool!
    I admit that I'm not as fond of the distortion used on their voices, but really that is the part most true to the original, as there was a LOT of distortion on the bass in the instrumental section. After a few listens, I've gotten used to not hearing their voices as 'clear' and beautiful as usual. And now I really love how it gives us the sound from the instrumental part.

    • @Gael4ce
      @Gael4ce 3 месяца назад +1

    This scrambled my brainwaves as well. Your reaction was my first exposure. I haven't seen the "official" version yet. Plus, I don't know the game, so I don't have that reference point. This piece is VERY highly produced with over tracks and effects. I'll have to give this a few listens to warm up to it. I LIKE it, but it's too complicated for a single take. Great breakdown, QoFy!

      It was written that way. :) "Regarding the song's lyrics, Cornell stated, "It's just sort of a surreal dreamscape, a weird, play-with-the-title kind of song." He also said that "lyrically it's probably the closest to me just playing with words for words' sake, of anything I've written. I guess it worked for a lot of people who heard it, but I have no idea how you'd begin to take that one literally." In another interview he elaborated further, stating, "It's funny because hits are usually sort of congruent, sort of an identifiable lyric idea, and that song pretty much had none. The chorus lyric is kind of beautiful and easy to remember. Other than that, I sure didn't have an understanding of it after I wrote it. I was just sucked in by the music and I was painting a picture with the lyrics. There was no real idea to get across."
