This is most likely going to be my last public video of 2021. Thank you to all of you who have subscribed, liked, commented, and supported throughout the year - Hugs and high-fives to all of you! Have a safe and happy holiday and I'll see you in 2022!
Imagine a Gothic cathedral in the middle of the night, completely dark and empty; then your suddenly hear an old clavichord and rusty bells starting to play by themselves and the low nice bass starting to sing out of nowhere. The St.Elmo lights are winking from side to side and this ghostly dark but extremely nice voice is singing and echoed back from the high cathedral ceiling vaults.
It's singing the old carol, older than the cathedral itself, older than its bells, equal in age to the oldest of ghosts.
The carol is ending in an earthy low note, lower and deeper than its dungeons. This note remains underneath forever, bouncing from the old walls and repeated by all the underchurch inhabitants.
That's such a good image! ;)
@@youtubingjaguar5082 Thank.you! The arrangement and magical singing, and the lights here are playing with my mind :)
@@jacklinka2347 it's a great image, and I'm going to borrow it for later use. ;)
@@youtubingjaguar5082 You can borrow whatever you need!
@@wowguy1243 I can too, and I love it!
Hey Geoff, you know how much we all appreciate you, right? Because we really really do. A whole lot. 💙
Truth
Absolutely true!
So much!!!
I appreciate YOU!
@@GeoffCastellucci Sorry, had to take advantage while (maybe) your still around to say, Hi!! And to Send you all our love from Canada🇨🇦
I love it when Geoff and his three twin brothers get together and release a banger
😁
Lol😂🔥
As an English and etymology nerd, the fact that he rhymed "mind" and "wind" in the original Middle English pronunciation just warms my heart. The "Great Vowel Shift" messed up English lyrics, poetry, and Shakespearean dirty jokes. Also, you can see just how much he loves this song, and I don't blame him. This and "Oh Holy Night" are my favorite Christmas songs. What a great arrangement.
epic point, more etymology here though, it is O Holy Night :). "O" and "Oh" have different meanings. i can edxplain more if u want
@@BlitzTheFoxiI'd like to hear it!🙋♀️
@@anna-a33allrighty
ok so oh is generally used as a sign of exclamation or awe, whilst O is actually a call out to or cry out. As in O Lord i cry to you versus Oh wow that is amazing.
its not a crazy difference and O is rarely used anymore, but if you wanna be correct O is used in these terms \o/
Yes, as a middle-schooler as I read and learned Shakespeare, I tried to always rhyme his couplets: love and prove, wind and mind. I figured I should stick to the original pronunciation. Not everyone liked that.
@@BlitzTheFoxiI think 'O' is one of the last few modern usages of the vocative case, whereas 'Oh!' is an ejaculation, as we were taught in the olden days of my schooling. I believe Latin was still considered a modern language, then.
When you want to sing a beautiful carol, but you can't help being a pirate from the darkest seas.
😂
🤣 👍🏻
Avast, ye merry gentlemen...aaarrrr, mateys! 😂🏴☠🎄🤣
Sexy Greek god pirate! 😆
Genuine LOL at that matey matey. Thanks for cheering me up!! I'm having a bad day but not so bad now!
I never was proud of my lower register when i was growing up. I always wanted to sing high like the rock and metal singers I listened to. Now though, I'm proud of my bass range and almost all of the credit goes to this guy. Thank you, Geoff, for helping me realize that being a bass is cool.
I always wanted to be a rock tenor, too. The only reason being a bass is "cool" now is because of folks like you. These videos could just as easily get 6 views and go completely unnoticed. Thank you for being here!
@@GeoffCastellucci my impression (also from my own standpoint) alot of people find deeper voices calming, comforting, and safe. So I think that those who come over basses that feel that way will like bass covers like this one, and the rest just wont bother. Hope this comment made sense, I just felt like I had to throw it in there from my standpoint as a woman ❤
@@idaengest4069 I have to agree with you about calming, comforting, and safe. That's a major part of the draw for me. Geoff also has a warmth, ease, and joy in his tone that can't be faked. I say that about all the singers in VoicePlay too, but it's the combination of that and bass range for me.
@@joyfulyes Glad im not the only one who thinks that 🥰
@Wayne I am one who has always, ALWAYS preferred the richness of a good bass voice over any of the higher voices. A good bass voice will literally give me the chills and make me shiver. I freaking love it. It's a beautiful, warm, earthy sound that I have always been drawn to, and it always elicits a visceral response from me when I hear it. Yes, there's a safe and comforting quality to it, but for me it's that earthy rumble. Geoff's voice also manages to carry a gentleness in it, even in his lowest sub notes without losing the earthquake rumble. And that is just completely enchanting for me.
There's a place and time for the higher voices, too. There is. And I do also enjoy them as well. But for me, nothing quite compares to the velvet wrapped in honey of a good bass. :)
I'm a female low contralto, so I sing basically the tenor range (but being female, I don't have that lovely tenor bright AND full timbre). If i had a penny for every time I've been told to force my voice up into the alto range or that I "just can't sing" because my range is inconvenient for what they were doing, I'd have a mansion on a private island somewhere. LOL. I've tried to reach the alto range... I can't. Simply cannot do it without causing injury. Heck, some of the higher tenor range is hard for me to reach! I've had a much easier time coming to accept my voice as it is, since getting into the acapella groups over the last five years or so. Learning that people DO actually appreciate the whole range of voices, including those of us on the bottom ends of our respective voice groups, has gone a long, long way towards reigniting the actual desire to sing again.
All this to say... you don't ever need to be ashamed or shy about your bass range. Take what nature endowed you with, care for it, and let it blossom. There is something a bass voice adds to music that no other voice type can. And it's the soul of the music; take the bass line out of anything, and all those higher voices leave you with a piece of music that sounds empty and hollow.
Who needs a choir when you can just be the choir. Damn. This was so beautiful!!
Geoff seems way more comfortable within his vocal range than he used to be. Awesome to see him constantly improve, as hard as it is to imagine him getting any better.
Divin
Conducter: Which part do you sing?
Geoff: Yes.
Geoff truly has an amazing vocal range. An incredible singer. as a single or in a group.
thanks for the like
I wanna see his whole nasopharynx on a scope, like with Tom Thumb.
I am in absolute awe. My grandfather was a bass singer and he actually sang me and my brothers this song in a very low voice when we wanted to sleep. You bring my grandfather's voice back from the dead and it is an absolute gift. Please keep doing what you are doing.
May I add that, Geoff, is absolutely drippin 🥵
I love it, but where are the captions?

Nah, Geoff Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
The accurate substitution ;)

I expected you would be here. Seems I was right.
It's you!! :D
You should do a transcription if you can, would be cool to visualize the harmonies
Fancy seeing you here!! I love your channel!

@@jackfishbock5102 When? Sorry, I don't hear any more
I am sorry I am Geoff’s big fans too. Would need you help me to list out the Tomi P latest video “ sweet dream “ 🙈🙈🙈
Love his low bass tones... and the fact that he can go up to a tenor... impressive
Incredible but true I'm crying for more 😢
Its called baritone
A lot of bass singers have crazy wide ranges! I'm super jealous!
@@scottishcommie1912 He moves between bass, baritone, and tenor.
Let’s called him: The golden basstenor tones, that is own name of his his low bass singer covers.
This may be your best yet.
The way you take what is normally such a simple melody and twist and layer it into something that is both familiar and enchanting is wonderful. This will be on repeat for some time!
Wow I didn’t expect to see you here. And I would most definitely agree with you
Couldn't have said it any better!
Hi guys. I made a Cover Mashup of Ava Max - EveryTime I Cry, SCOOP, Let Them Know, Rumors, LALISA and more ruclips.net/video/Kj4is9WsXSE/видео.html

It’s always a blast seeing people you’re a fan of be fans of other people you’re fans of.
Oh hello Stupes, what a pleasant surprise in the comment section
For me, this is the perfect Christmas song.
This is one of my favorite songs and THIS is my favorite rendition of it going forward. Absolutely beautiful, amazing, fantastic. Totally made my day finding this video today. THANK YOU. Much love and respect from Germany ❤

3:17 that or he accidentally slipped into 2nd subs
@@cullenlee6461 Nuh I don't hear anything.
Moreover, 2nd sub for an E1 (E2 Fund) is an A0
I think there's also a growl around 0:33
1) The combination of such an arrangement of music and such a voice (spoiler: there is not only bass) gives me goosebumps the size of an elephant. 😳
2) 2 points for diction: I heard the lyrics of this song clearly for the first time. ☺
3) the arrangement of the version reminded a little of the music of Hans Zimmer (Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean) 🤔
The overall score is 7 out of 5 (yes, I'm greedy). 😎
I have to agree with You on all points.
Also Hans Zimmer is a good comparison, I love his music for the emotions he evokes and the goosebumps and tears to my eyes effect it often has and it is the same with Geoffs christmas song or the Misty Mountains one. His arrangements are something else.
And I don‘t know why but in the beginning, I always hear „My Jolly Sailor Bold“ in the back of my head, but that might be because I am old, boring AND chronically confused....
@@Dani_Ela13 Hans Zimer is a genius of epic music.
@@alexking930 And it is not just about the knowledge and experience or being perfect, it is the special something that you have and cannot learn. I love that about music and art.
Anyways have a lovely day and Merry Christmas in advance.
@@Dani_Ela13 Thank you, but I don't celebrate Catholic Christmas 😅
@@alexking930 🙈 I apologize, have a wonderfull Watchalong then.
We all know that Geoff's singing is out of this world, BUT
The rhythm in this is extraordinary! The mix of swing and straight phrases is amazing!
I always love his arrangements from a harmonical view (and of course the bass... And the subharmonics), but this one shows that Geoff's musical ability stretches so far beyond that! Just.... Awesome!
Amazing Job!!
I know all decisions were deliberate, and I just want to praise him for that.
I hope, that Geoff reads the original comment - so he knows his efforts are appreciated! :)
Even if he does not react to my comment in any way.... It is enough that he might read it :)
Hätte ich nicht besser ausdrücken können
This is the song that started my recent obsession with the music of Geoff Castellucci and VoicePlay. I haven’t heard much new music to get excited about in years. In November 2023, I decided my old holiday playlist was getting a little tired. Since radio playlists are dreadful, I scoured Spotify and RUclips looking for new recordings. This is one of my all-time favorite Christmas carols, and Geoff’s version came up during my search. I was wowed by his gorgeous, deep voice and the beautiful arrangement! Within a couple days, I had watched nearly every video and mini, bought multiple songs, and joined Patreon. What a great holiday gift this turned out to be!
Wow!! His vocal range is... There are no words to describe how amazing it is. Just... Wow.
Geoff's voice brings me all the comfort and joy I could ever need. 😊❄️
I want an entire Christmas album sung by Geoff 😮 what a voice, it's so soothing, like a lullaby, so gentle on the ears, no fatigue from listening at all (I can't handle high notes for too long...but low notes, all day every day, so nice on the ears).
No matter how many times I see these, my brain still cannot wrap around the amazingness that is Geoff's range. It insists that it's someone else singing even while watching Geoff do it.
More of this please.
God has blessed you with a magnificent voice. Share it with the world.
I love listening to this over and over. Not only is it one of my favorite carols but it reminds me of my childhood. My father was a bass baritone and every year the whole family would gather around the piano and singe Christmas carols. That was 60 years ago. He's been gone for nearly 40 years now but I'll never forget.
When days get dark, know this: people from all over the world love and appreciate you for your amazing talent, your phenomenal voice, and your great personality! Thank you for being you! Blessings to you and your loved ones! ♥️
This is such an excellent version of a great Christmas song. Oh the beautiful harmonies of the Geof-tet. I can't wait to add it to my holiday playlist.
The Geoff-tet 🤩😍
Starts traditional, then morphs into an audible rendition of the joy proclaimed in the lyrics as the Geoff clones bounce melody, harmony, and phrases around between them. Ends with a bass underscore that gives the ground itself a shiver. I don't always like it when people rearrange some of the traditional songs, but that was a masterclass in how to rearrange without losing the original feeling of the song! Thank you sir!
True 👍
This sounds absolutely phenomenal on Bose noise, canceling headphones. It gave my throat a massage!
I have been going through some really stressful shit, anxiety through the roof, heart pounding, brain fog, inability to focus, everything making me panic type of anxiety, can't even sleep but SO exhausted, not eating, starving but no appetite, yet when I came across this on my youtube feed, all that melted away. I have not felt this comforted in a while. Your voice feels like a weighted blanket in the most comforting way possible. Thank you for sharing this gift 💕
Geoff's voice really is like a warm, comforting and safe hug. I use his narrations several times a week to help me sleep, they are so soothing and relaxing to listen to ❤❤
ruclips.net/video/EWcj30jESPk/видео.html
You may want to l ook into HPA axis dysfunction/adrenal fatigue symptoms.
His extraordinary lows vibrate right to my soul. So beautiful.
@@pegialberts2997 Geoff's lows get me right in the feels! **Shivers** I get goosebumps of delight every single time.
I love the way his hands play and his vocal range is incredible
Wow...another major demonstration of Geoff's range. I am perpetually amazed how anyone can sing such deep bass, and then flip to a high tenor in one breath. A one man choir for sure.
This guy made this song so much better. He added such a 'dangerous' feel to the song, while keeping the same merriness and displaying his vocal range. I had no idea Geoff could get better. and then he did
What I most enjoy is that you don't just "perform". You project a song, with feelings, enjoyment and emotions. You put your heart and soul into your music and it shows. Everything I have heard you sing has left me awe struck. When I see you have a new video out, I know it's going to be great, and you never have failed me. You always finish a song, and I always wish it was longer. Thank you for sharing your music with the world. God Bless and Happy Holidays to you and your family.
I came here to say this. Geoff's joy in making music is what makes it magic. His warmth and personality just glow to both sight and hearing.
Actually I think this is true for all the members of VoicePlay and especially in their musical alchemy together. I've loved everything of theirs that I've heard as well.
Thank you, my 13 year old became a bass last year... and I've been looking for a true bass for him to listen to.
practically for a year listening this track and "White Christmas" every week and sometimes every day, over and over again, they are so cool, thank you very much!
Time to open this in a new tab, set the alarm, call out from work, take a sick day, request a personal, skip school, close up for the day....
Basically this became top priority.
This is the first time I've seen a video by this guy, but I've got to say I'm really impressed! Not only are his lowest notes still clear, but he had a very impressive range in general!
Have you heard him sing Sixteen tons? Oh my gosh!
I'm teaching myself to perform 16 tons with his karaoke track. Fellow bass singer!
Based on the timbre of his voice I don't know if his voice is much lower than most choir basses, but his control over subtones is just really powerful
He is lower.
@@bobstr6224 I meant in natural range, and I wouldn't dare claim he isn't a really low bass, but I think a big part of his lowness is subtones (a technique) instead of natural range
@@bruhspenning you are right, however he also is a very solid bass even without those sub tones
I wish I could give this another like every December!
Geoff's genius at arranging is front and center. If you need a detailed breakdown of why this is so amazing, Peter Barber does an excellent analysis
There is something so comforting and satisfying about those low notes. And I never stop getting surprised at his range how does he sound so good no matter what register he's singing in??
This the best version of the song ever rewritten I am OBSESSED Great job
Is it sacrilegious that, after hearing this for the first time I actually said " aw hell yeah!" out loud? There was no one around to hear me except the cat and she wasn't listening. 😄 Thank you sir for another absolutely stunning arrangement and performance of an old standard! ❤
I felt the first note all the way to my booty. I'd say, not at all!
Hello Kelly how are you today
The cat was listening! They always listen...there might be food!
My first reaction was “holy hell!” Geoff is good... I knew that, but wow this was awesome!
I'm glad that I'm way older than Geoff because I get to listen to him for the rest of my life. He should out live me as long as he stays off airlines and private planes. He is6my alltime favorite singers.
When I go thru the pearly gates, I hope to hear Pavarotti, Bocelli and Castellucci singing. ABSOLUTELY Heavenly!
You know, this implies you want him to die before you do.
Could be that there are clones, I guess.
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 "Pearly gates..." Boy, are you ever in for a huge surprise!
all Italians, ethnically
Im not going if Geoff isnt singing in my ear.
I do so love watching Geoff be an entire men's choir all by himself.
Hi
The hand movement is like..mesmerizing
I can't believe that's just one person amazing love the range
I thought the heavy metal version of Carol of the Bells was my favorite dramatic Christmas song but THIS beats it. Loved this song!
Also, the 2nd from the right Geoff is my favorite Geoff. Glad to see him get a turn in the spotlight.
We all admire, appreciate, and love Geoff’s deep notes, but I’ve got to say that I really loved his tenor voice in this song. It is beautiful!
Your arrangements and voice always make every song outstanding, so when you announced this on Patreon I thought that this would very probably become my new favourite. My expectations were certainly high, but once again you’ve exceeded them by far! The arrangement, your voice, the drums (I love drums!), the strings, the bells, everything is just right! Thanks for turning this Christmas carol into something extraordinary! Merry Christmas!
Magnifico! Sei un grande davvero complimenti! E grazie per questo incredibile pezzo che ho appena ascoltato! Il significato di questo testo è una forza della natura! E la tua voce mi sta facendo venir voglia di passare da tenore a basso🙂👏👏 🙏🫶
Oh look, it's my favorite group. Geoff and the Castelluccis
The song that started my Geoff/Voiceplay addiction last year
Still cant get enough of it 😁
💚🖤❤️
Monster Mash did it for me. All four characters, the dancing, the singing, ooh la la. Im in love! The rumble he creates is a cross between a monster truck and a pirate. I get chills thinking of both. 💖🥰
Geoff, I appreciate the music, from the bottom of my heart, because your voice is literally smooth like butter and just glides from note to note, especially those low subharmonics. Merry Christmas Geoff
Merry Christmas!
Man am I excited. My favorite singer and one of my favorite Christmas songs.
Chills. Geoff is not only insanely talented, but classy. I would argue that his arrangements are just as impactful as his voice. Bravo!
Is anyone going to point out how freaking awesome Geoff looks in that costume and that hairstyle. Because he does.
Можно слушать бесконечно! Полное поглощение этим голосом! Этим тембром! Пение на 4 голоса - это что-то волшебное!
Considering the original meaning of "God rest ye merry gentlemen" was "God make/keep you strong gentlemen" in modern English, the bass voice really fits this song.
oh my goodness this is wonderful to listen to
SIR. I was NOT prepared to have your voice vibrate it's way into MY SOUL. 🔊🥴
Please do it again. 🙏
Yep, all the time…
I can't be the only 'dirty old lady' imagining that voice whispering in her ear and sending shivering vibrations down her spine.. and that's with a christmas song.. imagine a love song.. oooh boy.
I've only recently arrived in "Geoff's World" and am loving every minute. I've listened to this so many times that I'm now hearing a lot of the not-so-obvious things - in particular, the instrumental hits during "high Geoff's" solo really add to the excitement. Bravo!
This version regularly gets stuck in my head, thanks for that.
Listening to Geoff is a physically immersive experience
Love watching him massage the notes with his hands. I think it adds to the video.
No matter how many covers I hear by Geoff, no matter how many notes he sings, I am always shocked when I hear it. His voice is just perfect
Да, к этому голосу невозможно привыкнуть. Каждое исполнение - открытие, чудо!
This is the second time Geoff has done a cover of a song with a high reputation and in my opinion has completely made the song a totally different thing of its own and made it arguably better than the predecessors. Needless to say I love the song and even though it’s a Christmas song I will be listening to this until June have a good day❤️
Me too beautiful voice and inspired
Geoff, what can be said that hasn't already been said? You are absolute magic. Every song, every note, every unexpected moment is pure magic.
Прекрасное исполнение, шикарный голос, чудесный антураж, все со вкусом, очень хорошо. Спасибо
Amazing 🥰
This is how I had always wished "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" sounded, but I never dream it would actually happen. Thank you so much!!! It's perfect!!!
Tiktok brought here... Hoist the Colors by Voiceplay and discovering this man's coreshaking voice. I am hooked 😍
You never disappoint with your incredible productions.
The lighting in the background is so cool and interesting with the minimal and simplistic set dressing. Fits really well.
Incredible harmonies, LOVE the use of canon in multiple places, really fits with the song and the vibe. I love the build up and the pay-off..
It seems like you had a lot of fun with this one, which is always great to witness!
The difference in range from backing vocals to lead vocal.. so interesting as it is all the same voice.. there are so many details in this to pick up on.
I love the change in camera movements, drawing inspiration from the rhythm, tempo and vibe of different moments in the song and making it dynamic.
I also really like the backing track, it fits really well, but your voice and harmonies are still the star of the show. It complements really well and adds to the overall end product.
Simply marvelous! Happy Holidays to you and yours, Geoff(s)!
So good!
Geoff, what a stunning arrangement and performance! I’ve been listening to the King’s Singers, Dale Warland Singers, and Chanticleer since the beginning of Advent this year. Your arrangement brings to mind contemporary classical composers/arrangers such as John Tavener (The Lamb), Stephen Paulus (Evensong), and even the great John Rutter - such beautiful and tight harmonies. The modulation from minor to major at the end was so incredibly joyful and exultant. Thanks so much for your lovely and heartfelt rendition of this traditional carol!
That's high praise. Thank you!
Geoff has such a large and amazing range. His voice is spectacular.
Just the first note gave me shivers
What’s better than a bassist? FOUR BASSISTS!! This gave me goose bumps… holy shoot…!
Geoff... Probably many people tell you every day.. But thank you... You're literally saving my life...
Listening to your covers gives me the energy to be able to overcome another day
Thank you very much 💛
Te bass is something else
I read a book series recently called the dark is rising and the second book was set around Christmas; they sang this song. When reading the lyrics this was the only thing i could hear, the vibes matched what was going on in the book perfectly!
It's amazing how you can take a song so old and change it so much, yet leave the listener with the impression that the song was always meant to be this way. Truly not just a great voice, but a talented artist.
Your 16 tons video was my favorite, but honestly I think this one might just pass it up for me. The arrangement is just so... complex but unintrusive. Your composition skills never cease to amaze me, which is incredible considering just how amazed I am every time I see a new video.
This man is absolutely out of this world!! Dang!! That base is killing my heart!! Sjoe!!! Unbelievable...God bless and take care of your voice box....I absolutely love it!! Have a good night you all, I am signing out! Mari from South Africa!!🌷🌷🙏
So talented.
That night in that medieval town, the guard decided to cheer up the townsfolk with a song.
Thank you for this rendition of my favorite carol! God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen tells the Gospel in a beautiful way! Your voice is amazing and truly a gift from God.
This rendition reminds me of my dad. He was a bass singer who loved Christmas songs and air-conducting imaginary orchestras/choirs while he sang along to them, and when this song hits the point where the instrumentation swells in, I can't help smiling and imaging the fun Dad would have had singing and conducting along with Maestro Geoff. :)
Geoff this is a unique and beautiful version of the song; I always love your arrangements. More importantly though, to me, was the fact that so many of your friends & Kathy, of course, were there to help you put it all together. That is what this song and this time of year is all about. With the very recent loss of my Dad I am really struggling this holiday season to find that peace & joy I normally have so I find it truly heartwarming to think of you, Kathy, Eli & the PattyCake Production guys - Layne and/or Tony - working all together. To anyone reading this comment, no matter what holiday you celebrate, I wish you peace & joy this season and to anyone struggling along with me, may you find someone or something to warm your heart & help you through.
Geoff's bass register is beautiful, but I also very much enjoy his higher register, so it was nice to get a higher section in this song~
i listened it twice: with eyes closed and then opened... fantastic both times
I saw this while listening to hoist the colors, boy am i glad i have headphones in, this is beautiful
I love that you did the other verses, sooo many others leave them out. This was great, it's one of my absolute favourite carols, you did it justice.
Woah your upper range sounds really good in the melody
Geoff, you are without a doubt one of the most inspiring artists I have ever heard! The arrangement, your voice, the scene. MINDBLOWING! Thank you so much
I adore it
