- While the dwarves of the company of Thorin Oakenshield longed to return home to Erebor, a story of their tale to come was crafted. . . and with good company! Unfortunately, they did not have the deep vocals of Geoff Castellucci to warm their hearts. Oh how his voice rippling through Bag End would sound!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Geoff Castellucci performing "Far Over The Misty Mountains Cold” for the first time.

Thank you for sharing this with your audience! There's a lot of wonderful insight here that not many folks would pick up on, it's like a mini masterclass. (And also thank you for liking it 😬)
So it is a G#1 at the end right?
I mean, mix giant dwarves with beards, ale and your subharmonics and it would be impossible not to love it! Thank you for always putting out amazing content!!!
The world needs more Castellucci and Zharoff; perhaps vocalizing together... Aida comes to mind. I hope you both continue to share your music and insights
Geoff, I don't think you know how much of a positive impact you have on many of us. I used to sing bass, and I sung well, I even sung acapella solos in a front of public, but my father laughed at me and called me names and it got me off of singing for many years. You brought me back and you gave me my passion for singing back. I will never be able to repay you for that, it's priceless. Thank you!
Geoff, we are waiting on a collaboration with you, Tim and Avi, possibly covering the Nine Inch Nails song “Hurt” in a cappella!
Enen finding a few other bass singers to join in on other songs as well!
the way Elizabeth giggles, like a little school girl who's talking to her crush, is both adorable and hillarious at the same time.
It is all Jeff’s fault too.
A supercut of her noises could sound like a very different type of video.
@@DennisKovacich they are Geoff, Jeff, Jof and Jaf.
She's delightfully female and human. Smart, funny and female. Refreshing.
@@terryperkinson4423 okay mate female we got it
Elizabeth: "The delicacy of his high harmony here is just astonishing!"
The G1 waiting a second and a half later: *_UNPAUSE ME._*
That beefy G1 at that. The first one is beautiful but that second one was just 😲😲😲
I can't sing the note you're gonna have to UNPAUSE ME
Don't tell the elf.
Waka Waka she said
Panties dropping note 😏
The man who wrote this comment on Geoff's original post is still winning the comments!
This man’s voice is deeper than the mines of Moria!!!
It put the fucking Balrog back to sleep
@@Ballin4Vengeance 😂
i think his voice hit her......below the belt at 7:18 lol
@@isaiahach I thought that was the 3rd time...
@@isaiahach lol I was thinking the same thing, she looked like she was enjoying it a little too much!
I love how she just dissolves into giggles when Geoff holds a low, resonant note.
Yeah, watching those immediate and utterly unfiltered emotional responses are a huge part of what makes this channel so appealing. On the other hand, I think for everyone's sake we'd better keep her away from Nick Cave.
Watching somebody have eargasms like this in a genuine way has something magical almost
This is pretty much why I love this channel. Her honest love and reactions to these voices.
And her giggles.
@@CatalepticHunter The main reason I enjoy watching this channel is I enjoy listening to someone who knows what they're talking about and Elizabeth, definitely, knows whereof she speaks.
@@CatalepticHunter Agree completely on the first part, but on the second,I disagree completely. We MUST introduce her to Nick Cave! The Weeping Song perhaps?
The depth on "gold" grew an immediate beard on my face
And my balls became twice as large...
@@freeclimb5487 that you might wanna go get checked…that sounds like elephantitis.
@@20TheGame09 Naw, I rubbed one out and they shrank back to just being big. Until they filled back up again.
Yah the instant brown note
@@JhelleMies that sent me into orbit 🤣
I did what you requested!!! We played this song on a huge sound system, full line arrays and subs on the floor. AT FULL Volume!!! The walls were vibrating. We heard rattles all over the auditorium. My job includes building and tuning big sound systems and this song is now on my list to run a "shake-down" cruise on the subs.
I'd love to see videos of that
This might sound completely off but I think I need to try this in my car... it probably won't clearly produce the G1 (it's only a pair of 10's in a sealed chamber) bit it still might be fun
i wouldn't..... do you want the car to fall apart?@@scraverX
Her giddy giggles at Geoff's impressive earth-deep notes just tickle me. 😆 🥰Madam, in that moment you were all of us.
When the Dwarves went as deep as Geoff, they woke the Balrog...Durin's Bane!
Underrated comment
Lmao
Very under rated lol
Maybe not the balrog yet but definitely a dragon.
He sang too greedily and too deep?
Geoff's low notes with the volume up in the headphones is like an actual brain massage.
till you blow your headphones.... rip to mine lol
I feel the vibration everywhere when he goes subharmonic. It's such an amazing sound!
And singing it with him is a vocal massage
Amen 😂
Mood xD
I had full body chills listening to this, his voice is like chocolate in your ears
I hope to one day find a woman who makes the same facial expressions at me, that Elizabeth does when she listens to good music.
especially her reactions to Queensryche.
Elizabeth is able to go through 40 different facial expressions in 60 seconds. Incredible, really.
Sorry mate but I think God broke the mold after making this one and he probably shed a tear as well.
Indeed, she has an amazingly expressive face, it's just bliss watching her
If she were my partner, I'd terrified over what expression I might get if I ever disappointed her.
This, *this*, is what Bilbo must have heard while falling asleep. The resonance, the emotion, the single mournful string...
When he hit that low note at the end it reminded me of Gimli blowing the horn at Helm's Deep.
It sounds exactly like that!
He is the living embodiment of the horn of helm hammerhand! It yet rings within the deep!
Nicely put, and yeah it reminded me of that too
Omg yes! It's so vast and kind of hollow but still full… amazing tone quality.
That last note almost made me shit myself
J R R Tolkien wrote the lyrics . The song is in the book the hobbit. The way it is interpreted and performed with deep bass dwarf voices echoing in caves is really cool.
Yes Tolkien wrote the lyrics, but the tune was written by Neil Finn, one of New Zealand’s best songwriters noted for the 1980’s and 1990’s bands Split Enz and Crowded House.
I love the comment on the original video that says Geoff doesn't have vocal cords, he has tectonic plates... 😊
Perfect.
I love her giggling. You can see how this is golden ale running down her ears.
This is such a under-rated comment.
I mean his voice is perfect
Who better to embody the primordial power of an ancient mountain than a man whose voice sounds like two tectonic plates rubbing together? The song also benefits from Geoff's gift for strong minimalist arrangement which gets a bit under-appreciated as people salivate over his vocal abilities. But, who better to salivate over such a voice than the Bob Ross of Bass, the Willy Wonka of Windpipes, the inimitable Battle Bard and Unicorn Goddess, Elizabeth Zharoff! That look of delight on her face is priceless! Ahhh! Is it tomorrow yet??!!
I appreciate your appreciation! 👍
@@GeoffCastellucci Thanks! I appreciate your work!
Good one G.L., Geoff answered you! 👍
@@luisnunes3863 Yeah, I marked out. He seems like a really cool dude.
@@oglschmitt Certainly cool enough to just drop a nice answer to a random fan. Still many out there that wouldn't and aren't half the talent he is.
In the book The Hobbit, Tolkein described the the dwarves pulling out violins, large violins as big as them (so probably cellos) flutes, a drum and Thorien had a harp. The simple instrumental fits perfectly with what Tolkein was going for imo.
violins simple?
@@pouncepounce7417 Yes. Violins are simple. You, know, as opposed to electric guitars, that need to be amplified and have the advantages and complexity (complexity as opposed to simplicity) of modern technology behind.
@@ThorsShadow building an violin is not simple, that is wood high tech.
You need to know how to do it or you end with noises that make you skin crawl
@@pouncepounce7417 It would be simple for dwarves and elves. Dwarves are known for extreme expert craftmanship, and elves have all the time in the world to figure it out. It would be a thousand times easier for them to make a violin than it would be for humans, and therefore, considered simple.
@@pouncepounce7417 not really, that was my dads first job while in highschool back in 1960. once you're shown how its not really that hard after.
Face and physique of a god, voice of a dragon. This man was born to sing Dwarfish hymns.
Listening to Geoff sing is a real ASMR experience.
The only thing better than hearing Geoff sing is watching Elizabeth reacting to Geoff singing. Her joy and wonder is just infectious.
There is just something about low voices that just resonates with people. (Pun very much intended). High notes are for your ears to hear. Low notes are for your heart to hear.
nah, they're for your bones to feel. :D
It depends how high notes are made though
When I hear good subharmonics they make my skin crawl and my knees go weak. It causes a physical reaction. This is why I love traditional Nordic music because so much of it is bass/subharmonic and it carries so much emotion
That makes SO MUCH SENSE to me because I'm hard of hearing. I don't get ASMR or anything. I hate high notes. This stuff shivers my timbers crazily. So good.
I love how she melts at the low notes! We get a nose crinkle as well.
I love the music from LOTR and the Hobbit movies. Within the first 30 seconds of hearing them sing I had my breath taken away and tears came to my eyes immediately. Holy cow... just wow.
You and me both.....I even started re reading ( for the umpteenth time) the books....I first read them at about age 10 through 12.......30+ years on and very few, if any, stories have had such a visceral impact on me.....You said it best...'Holy cow...just wow'
It's just one guy singing btw. Even more mind blowing 🤯 🤣
The “gold” G1 is a subharmonic, so is the boat horn at the beginning. “There shadows lay” is in chest, it’s much meatier, Geoff commented on this.
That's a good way of explaining it. I usually use "Is it a burp or a frog?" 😂
I’m here because Geoff Castellucci sent me via his Patreon
That makes at least two of us!
Me three
Me Four 😂
@@fortheloveduck five

The look on Elizabeth's face makes it look like Geoff's voice is doing all kinds of things to her body in this reaction 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I fully laughed out loud because my body does the same damn thing!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I laughed so hard, I almost peed myself! I mean, it helps that I'm a little baked, but still.....
@@willardroad honestly I laughed so hard, I was like "Hoo boy if only I had a partner (Geoff ISN'T Elizabeth's partner I should add!) who could do things like that to me with just their voice!" 😂😂😂😂
I just love how much she Geeks out and goes giddy for the deep notes :)
He holds that last note long enough, you can hear some minor variation; that's his heartbeat interfering with his lung capacity. Just AMAZING! He's every bit the earth-shaker that Tim Foust is.
Yes he is, and there's also a sweetness and, if possible, a ~kindness~ in his voice (and appearance) that I think is very rare. Nowadays so much of the entertainment produced has a hard edge and/or is very processed. Simplicity, sincerity, and wholesomeness are so wonderful to still find.
Never heard Geoff before but goodness he has a phenomenal bass voice. The arrangement is off the chart. Minimalist doesn't ever mean lack of depth and the strings take it to another level with those harmonics. Old world, spiritual.
Geoff is a pure beast, Paul. I am a bass singer and when I discovered him, I was blown away. He sings mostly in a thick baritone register, then drops down into low 2nd and higher 1st octave to remind you he is a true bass; followed by drops below A1 to remind you he is a contrabass. Then, he follows that up with runs higher than many tenors can reach.
@@johndeeregreen4592 I totally agree, I was quite shocked by his range and I am fascinated and eager to hear more from this amazing guy.
@@paulcooper8929, he is also with an acappella group called Voiceplay. These are even more remarkable arrangements, since every sound is made with the human voice.
@@paulcooper8929 dude's insanely talented, like John Deere Green said he's part of an Acapella group called Voiceplay and they're good, i recommend Oogie Boogie's Song if you want to focus on Geoff.
And I really appreciate that he jokes and wears costumes and doesn’t take himself so seriously that he can’t play around. So many of the videos especially with voice play if you watch them multiple times you can see this wonderful skit like interaction between him and the other vocalist where you can tell that they’ve really chosen to incorporate quite a bit more fun and sort of winks to the audience. Just overall fun, but amazing, performances.
All of these reaction videos, be they male or female, have the same response to Geoff’s voice…they just completely melt. I love it.
Look how exited she is! That's so cute to see someone that exited on a subject that the person love, you can see litle sparks in her eyes :D
She looks like she needs a cigarette after listening to this
The look of sheer pleasure on your face when Geoff hit's those low notes. I'm a man and even I melt and go weak as soon as he growls 😂
Around mid-fall, when my allergies kick into high gear, I get what Phoebe called, the "sexy phlegm" and my voice gets much deeper than normal. I tell ya, shower-time singing sounds great (in my head, I can't sing). This is one of the songs I sing. lol.
Also, your shear giddiness and giggling over the eargasm notes was fun to watch :)
that's not how you scare zombies away... nice to see men of culture flock to this channel ;-)
@@ScryptarPlaysGames We don't scare them away, we pop some heads and keep singing. :)
I attempt these bassy songs in the shower with my morning voice, what I wouldn't do to sound like that all day
Me, too! My coworkers laugh because I either sound like Barry White (or mid-range bass Geoff) or Minnie Mouse on helium. There’s no on between. Remember that Geico commercial with the helium truck accident? Yeah, that’s me.
Same here with the sex phlegm. I get a sweet spot at the end of a cold where my wife says I sound like Barry White and I can get weirdly low. But it only lasts a day at most though. I'd love to sound like that the whole time.
Loved this: Geoffs really deep bits sounded a bit like the horn of Helms Deep being blown by Gimli, especially at the end. And what a perfect song for his voice …
Never before have I encountered anyone that can sing so low and maintain it and make it a melody. I’m very impressed with him and the group. I look forward to more from them
What group?
It was before I realized he had copy’s of himself singing
@@brucemaguire2757 Ah, ok. I was hoping he was actually in a group. Always looking for new music. ;)
@@RiylanCorma It may be a little too late, but he is part of Voiceplay, but I think they don't have original music just awesome covers mostly a capella.
So she is secretly a real-life elf, right? I mean how could she not be! A really pretty modern-day elf with the coolest nerdy laugh!
whens the last time you saw her ears? 😇
"He could be the top singer in a boyband."
Have you seen VoicePlay's "Boybands in 5 minutes"? It's gold, so well made in every way :D
So funny
That laugh a 3:48 was great. Suddenly an opera singer turns into a goblin, I love it 😆
As a very low bass, I appreciate this in so many ways. I sang in my university chorus back in college and the instructor was impressed with my depth into the lower octaves and overall range. It's so awesome to have us basses get some love!
How low does your chest voice go?
@@stellanhughes2549 not sure about now, but when I was in university chorus, I could go down to A1 comfortably
@@ChevySpeedAddict Awesome, I can get A1 but not comfortably haha
@@stellanhughes2549 that's awesome though! Anything in the 1 octave or lower is impressive. I'd love to "refurbish" my voice and see if I still have that flexibility. I haven't practiced in years.
I'm not just saying this, but you really are the gold standard for music react channels. You add so much to the experience of watching a video like this. I find it little wonder that Geoff mentioned that he'd noticed this going up on his patreon.
Geoff is a great entertainer, not only a great singer.
Agreed. He seems like a pretty normal dude, but when it's time to get into character, dude commits.
She is honestly so beautiful, she could be a Disney character... watching her facial expressions, her excitement, is unbelievably cute especially when she melts at his voice. She has a contagious smile 😃
As a huge Tolkien fan this freakin blew my mind. This guy is amazing, I love how he kept the Middle Earth and Dwarven feel basically kept it loyal and true to the world of Tolkien. Brilliant Brilliant job, Geoff 👏👏👏💗
I cannot tell you how many times I've listened to this cover since it came out! This made my Tolkien-loving heart extremely happy. Geoff did something truly amazing with this one.
Tolkien would be proud
Somebody-"Ok, we need 4 guys for an acapella performance".
Geoff- "Hold me mead, mate."
WOW!! Did NOT see this coming. So incredibly cool.
Check out his other "solo" works. It's the same quartet. ;)
@@cynthiaross9438 I honestly had never heard of him before Elizabeth talked about him. That's a funny bit by him, quite the talent. Thanks for the suggestion, think I will do that. :D
@@cynthiaross9438 His version of "16 Ton" makes me question whether it's my favorite or the original Tennessee Ernie Ford. Most times the one a person hears first is their favorite, but Geoff's cover is definitely as good as the original
@@hillbillynurse7212 I know right? His take on "House of the Rising Sun" just destroyed the Animals' version.
We have started calling this the Geoffett.
The kinda voice that everyman alive wish he would have.
At 2:20 he sings with subharmonics a G1
At 14:14 it is his normal chestvoice, also G1
And at 19:20 Geoff uses the growl technique (G1)
When he sings "There shadows *lay*" and hits that note I swear to god it sounds like a tuba! Like it has exactly the same timbre as a tuba. Just mindblowing.
"🎵... Our long forgotten ⤵️🎶gold." Oh crap, he just woke the Balrog! I'm glad you have Orcrist, but I think you'll need your Shardblade!😁
this is by far the best cover of misty mountains!
As someone with a deep voice, this is my favorite breakdown you’ve dome
This way of singing reminds me of Bulgarian Orthodox monks singing in basso profondo. Haunting and beautiful.
It's crazy how I know he can sing extremely low yet it still shocks and surprises me when he does. He's amazing. Great Video. 🥰🙏
What you described at 14:00 was a basic throat bass/kargyraa, where both folds are utilized to produce a lower sum pitch. Subharmonics don't require the false chords as the true folds go "out of sync". They adopt a 3/2 relationship in terms of vibration(for the first subharmonic anyway) where one fold vibrates for example at 100hz and the second fold at 66hz and produce a sum pitch(33hz, a C0) one octave below the chest note, which in this case would be C1 or 66hz . This effect can be achieved multiple times, some can sing even 4 subharmonics "at the same time", but mainly you'll hear the fundamental and the lowest summed pitch as the most prominent sounds.
Her entire reaction from about 7:08 to 7:49 was me, and is me, every time I hear this song.
The reaction all guys wish to give their ladies.
I love your insightful analysis, but even more I love your transcendent joy..
That G1 at around 14:00 you pointed it out was full chest voice, incredibly resonant and powerful. He hit a subharmonic G1 previously so I can see how you’d think it was a sub too
Does he start the song with "Far over" with D1-F1-G1 or D2-F2-G2? Because that sounds way lower than the G at the beginning. Sorry I'm bad at hearing octaves
@@xooperz he starts with D2-F2-G2 👍🏻
@@lukeroe3434 yeah I was wondering about that since she mentioned G1 at the beginning. Thanks
I adore watching your response and reaction!
I am absolutely mesmerized by Geoff's voice and his presentation!
My entire being is vibrating with JOY!
I just watched your interview with Geoff and thoroughly enjoyed the interactions between you.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
I was singing with a large choir and had the opportunity over the years to sing Soprano 1 & 2, Alto 1 & 2, then to my great pleasure I joined the tenors, singing both 1 & 2 with some baritone. The resonance in the body is so incredible to feel.
I am in awe!
Thank you so much, Elizabeth!
Thank you so much, Geoff!
I maintain that Geoff singing this wasn't him showcasing the voice of a dwarf.
HE IS A DRAGON.
Others commented admirably about Geoff Castelluci's stunning performance, so this is a comment of appreciation for your analysis & response. Your reviews always insightful and brings a greater appreciation of both the mechanics of singing and the artistic choices being made. That’s not to mention the joie de vivre of enjoying performances - thank you.
I'll echo you on that. She examines everything; music, vocals, lyrics and the connections and relations between them. And she shares her knowledge in a way that is so fun, charming, and joyful. It does enhance one's appreciation of a song or an artist while putting a smile on your face as well.
I'm trying to learn Italian, and one thing I absolutely couldn't get was the "a" sound. Then I watched the analysis here of Pavarotti singing "Nessun Dorma." The explanation of the Italian "a" was exact - it's at the back, on the roof of the mouth. Problem solved.
His low note on the word ‘ lay’ was a chest note, the first one was subharmonic :)
I found your channel recently and I've been obsessed ever since. This analysis is one of my favorites now. I appreciate your boundless joy and love of music! I so appreciate that you never tear down or criticize - we can just come here to appreciate!
really, let's all be honest - who's listening to Elizabeth's reaction/analysis vids just for her wonderful and colorful personality? and shouldn't that map on the wall be Middle Earth? Thanks for your work, E, as always I love your presentation AND your obvious skill with music detail.
For the lower voiced baritone this song is great to rate your hangover after a heavy night.
If you can get close to that G1 and aren't a basso profundo you probably had a good night.
truuueee
It's a very strange feeling when there is a complete stranger on the internet who describes you and your Saturday morning routine perfectly.
absolutely incredible work
I told my wife about this video. She got this subtle, sly smile. What is up with that. LOL
That "daaaaaay" was jam packed with 100x the dread one would think a children's story would have. Yet, it is totally appropriate for that song, for Thorin, for their history.... dang.... it gave me chills. It's the exact note horror movies use in their score to denote dread... it's genius. Daybreak for the dwarves at this moment wasn't joyous. They were embarking in a suicide mission to reclaim the Lonely Mountain. Great arrangement!
I absolutely love the way you giggle when you here Geoff's bass notes. When I first heard this song I knew I needed to hear your reaction. You have such amazing insight. Thank you for making this!
So he hits the G1 in three different ways. The first being subharmonic, the second being chest fry, and the third is a low growl note, similar to how Tim Foust did his low note with Peter on this cover
Someone said this recording is a half step lower than the one with Foust. If so, I think that's funny.
I don't think the last one is a growl. Sounds to me like chest, just with a little more "umph" if you know what I mean
@@joyfulyes that's true. But it wouldn't have been a problem for Tim to do it half a step lower
Honestly his voice is doing things to my body. :D He's incredible.
I saw him perform live. Yes, yes it does. For starters....you know when you're at a concert and they crank the bass until the bass guitar makes your rib cage vibrates? Yeah. He can do that to an audience too.
why do you think she made the face and squirmies she did? lol
Oh Elizabeth, you have GOT to react to Voiceplay's Hoist the Colors. It's their best cover ever!
Geoff's voice just melts me 🔥 it's like melting chocolate, so smooth
Hi Elizabeth, this is my first time listening to this song, and Geoff's performance was amazing. The hummed melody intro was elaborate and of haunting beauty, and his deep bass vocals and tenor voice were incredible. This was an outstanding arrangement! Thank you, Elizabeth!!! 💙
Watch the scene in the hobbit where they sang this song. It is spine tingling chilling!
How you 'geek out' is absolutely fantastic. It shows the genuine enjoyment in your passion. Everyone should be finding that hobby that gets them to geek out where no amount of time is every enough... always wanting more.
:)
Wow! I've listened to this many times but your reaction is the best I've ever seen! You're truly intune. Geoff has amazed time and time again!
I love watching you react to these. You can truly see the love and passion you have for the art when you’re watching and reacting. Your facial expressions are amazing! I can’t wait til I can afford to take classes with you!
Now you need to do his new one, "HOUSE OF THE RISING SON".
Geoff is all talent!! And I love how you get all giggly when you react to His music (or voiceplay!) This song is amazing, haunting and beautiful!
May be my most favorite of her videos ever! From the very beginning, and all throughout, she is an absolute adorable and giggyliscious joy! Delicious music that stimulates all parts of her being. Goodness, could she be any more endearingly adorable than in this video! 😊❤️🤗
Incredible. Perfect sound and reaction of Elizabeth!
Everything voice play does and everything Geoff does with his solo work is orchestrated beautifully and perfectly,. The details in everything they do are amazing. Geoff's wife helps a lot she should get mentioned heaps as well, she deserves it,. Even the families of voice play should get credit for the things they do as well. These guys are the best acapella group I've seen, Geoff's solo work in everything is powerful and inspirational,.
Watching you impart amazing vocal wisdom while bubbling like a little girl is adorable.
Many thanks for introducing me to this amazing singer, must have seen this video 10 times since yesterday. And from there the step to Voice Play came natural, lovely group. I’m now diving into the world of acapella groups, and there are so many great ones, especially Home Free. And a big thanks for your great analysis.
Elizabeth you explain the sounds we hear with such perfection. So grateful for your gift and talent.
I really like seeing how intently you're listening to the song. You have such an expressive face, and your enthusiasm and appreciation for the music comes across so well. I'm glad you don't feel the need for silly exaggerated facial expressions like some reactors do. The genuineness here is refreshing and very much appreciated.
(Also, that was really nice of you to give Kathy a shout-out. She definitely does deserve a lot of credit!)
I can't wait for this one! Been waiting for it since Geoff uploaded it. The low G in full chest on the word "lay" is insane !
It's so much fun to watch Elizabeth's expressions slide from glee to giddy to devious to astounded. Thank you, Elizabeth, for so much hard work and trying to draw out and draw attention to the subtleties of the vocal craft!
So glad I stumbled across this review. Geoff is not just "ear candy" he is quite nice eye candy as well! Nice to see someone else react to him like I do ;) LOVE everything I've ever heard him do.
I don't think I have ever seen you so immersed into a song, absorbing and enjoying each and every part of it!
Geoff is such a master! And somehow getting even better! 🔥🌟💖
I'm exited for this one
Thank you both Geoff and the charismatic voice this is so beautifully done and the break down of it is just as equally beautiful
Today was my first time hearing this low version, and blown away is an understatement. I wasnt even sure some of those really low ones were real. Then I found this channel and WOW. The passion for the music, the knowledge, pure excitement😍
Can’t think of a more perfect person to cover this.
I 've been looking forward for you to do this video. You didn't disappoint, thank you. Keep up the excellent work.
The pure elation and passion that you have for music as the art form that it is never fails to bring me joy. Thank you for the video. Never stop being who you are because you are amazing. God bless.
First time I heard this I legit thought it was a group of four different guys. That it's just all one person is simply amazing
Geoff outdid himself in all aspects of this video, it is absolutely my favorite video on UA-cam now. Great review and appreciation of Geoff's creativity and hard work!
Thank you for an absolutely delightful response and analysis. As a fellow geek who also grew up on the Hobbit and such, this song (in addition to being wonderfully and impressively sung) brings back so many memories. Thank you for sharing it here.
I absolutely love watching your videos. Your so full of knowledge and I love learning things. ❤️
The song has such emotion, and the depth to his voice adds to that deeply
