The darkness and fullness of Geoff's subharmonics lately is incredible. Normally, subharmonics are also full of positive harmonics, so they have a buzz to them... Geoff has been working on darkening them, I believe, to remove some of those positive harmonics and it just sounds so amazing.
He is a workhorse in that for sure. I’ve seen a few of his practice videos. He’s gonna continue to get lower with that fullest thr way he works at it.
J. None left the group summer of 2021 and signed up for five years in the Navy. He is currently the new frontman for Navy Band Northwest. J. None just slips back in with ease to his old spot with the group when he is home to Florida on leave. He said when he left that it wouldn't be forever and that he would be back. VoicePlay is always up to a challenge when they are told that they can't do something, a Cappella. Then they do it. Geoff did all the fun stuff. The arrangement, Creative Design, and Costuming. The big surprise at the end with #VIOLAYNE! The cherry on top of the Sunday.
Hi Lois! I didn’t realize he was originally in the group. He does fit right I. With all of them. This was such a fantastic arrangement. They blew my mind with how good it was. Hearing thr violin was a great surprise too. Thanks for watching!
@@bobcieslinski Seeing as they haven't taken in Omar Cardona or DeeJay Young as permanent members I'm thinking that they expect J. None to return once his military stint if over. Anyway, DeeJay is doing wonderfully as part of the Hamilton cast. vioLayne strikes again! Layne also plays the violin in their video Warriors, joined by J. None. Always a joy to see.
Lois is 100% correct. I will add that he misses singing with Voiceplay on the record and before he went home for leave during Christmas he was super excited for this project although, he wouldnt tell me which song they were doing. Even as one of his friends, he makes me wait to see what he does until the rest of the world knows. He does have his own UA-cam channel and socials, you should check it out. He is doing some interesting stuff
@@billsturm9225 wow so cool Bill that you know him. He is super talented and how selfless of him to serve and out his fantastic singing career on a temporary hold. He’s an awesome person for that. He will get what he deserves for sure. It will be all good and amazing! I’ll check it out thanks!
@@bobcieslinski he's just a regular guy and that's pretty much what he will tell you.
I love seeing everyone's reactions to VioLayne, we all wait for it!
So awesome!!!
I vaguely remember the original, it was very popular. This is an amazing cover, the arrangement as spectacular as VoicePlay's always are, and the perfomance just wonderful. But then. they never fail to please. If no one has mentioned it, Eli is pronounced to rhyme with jelly, or belly. It's short for Eliezer, a Jewish name. From what I've heard, Layne originally sang the guitar solo but Geoff suggested trying the violin, and I think it was a good choice. As you say they build to a crescendo then bring us back down to a peaceful ending. Wonderful.
Hi Christine so good to hear from you again. That was an excellent choice going with thr violin. Everyone would be expecting a voice but instead they threw us a great curveball. I loved it.
Geoff did the arrangement including Layne's guitar solo toward the end where Metallica did it. As it got closer to doing the video he asked Layne if he could do it on the violin. WOWSA. It has been 3 years since Layne did Warriors and that long since we fans got to hear him again. He is so good with it. After I heard this, I went and listened to Metallica's version and was impressed with how true VP was to the original. I love this. A lot of us are really hoping that J None comes back when his stint with the US Navy is done - he's got a little more than 3 yrs. The Navy wanted him for that vocal talent. I was impressed with the power of the crescendo and its subsiding with a minor swell and to the final quiet end. I honestly never thought that Metallica could or would do something like this. I am so glad that VP did this. They are up to 1.24 mill at the moment.
Hey BJ! Is his was a killer song and arrangement from VP. Metallica’s version is awesome too but to take that and out it to voices and still retain the essence of thr song but be unique. Well I think only Voiceplay could pull that off and they sure did.
So delighted that you decided to react to this one! I think it's stunning, and - well - when vioLayne steps up I lose it. (if you haven't seen Warriors, he plays AND beatboxes throughout.) Appreciate your careful appraisal of the details! (If you have time, it'd be fun to hear your reaction to their newest, the Beach Boy classic "In My Room". It couldn't be more different than this one, it's like a warm hug of a song. I'm fascinated with their expressive range...)
Hi Aurora! Nice to hear from you! I’ll have to add that one. Sounds awesome. I loved that Beach Boys song. Thanks for the suggestion!
Masters of their instrument - voices. Clear, distinct and everyone has an opportunity to shine within the performance. They love what they are doing and it shows. Thanks Voiceplay
Thanks so much what a great song.
J. None is a former member of the group he left in 2021 to join the Navy but comes back while on his leave to sing with group
Oh thanks I didn’t know that.
Never been a Metallica fan, but they brought tears in my eyes with this one. ❤
And VioLayne is such a fantastic treat. ❤
The arrangement... What to say about the arrangement? Is it fantastic or what? ❤
Every new video raises the bar a bit. They outperform themselves, and keep doing so. I can't wait to see what they will END the year with! 😁
Thank you for the reaction and the explanations. Loved it 🙂
See you next time!
Thanks Davide! This was an incredible arrangement of an already fantastic song. Voiceplay just has a way of taking a song and making it even more incredible.
Same, save this song and Enter Sandman. Otherwise was never a big fan of Metallica. But there is something about Voiceplay that makes some songs you don't care for their own masterpieces also.
@@joeysmith5086 this. VoicePlay has made me like songs I'd never have listened to, and one I even really strongly disliked (Creep). It's one of their many gifts.
I don't know how familiar you are with the group, but the more you hear of Eli, the more you'll understand when I say : Eli is absolutely PERFECT for this song and his part. He has a gorgeous, wonderful rock belt and grit in his voice. He uses it to great effect in many songs. :)
J None used to be a full member of the group. He left a while ago as he was joining the military. If you start going through their older catalogue, you'll see more and more of him. =} He has a gorgeous voice. It's pure silk.
Great thoughts here Seliah! Thanks!
As always, they did a beautiful job of respecting the original while doing their own version. Though I heard one reactor who thought it was too far from the original, so I guess there are differing opinions on that, but am glad to hear that you agree with me 😊.
Regarding J None, one of the first VoicePlay songs he was in, auditioning for the vacant baritone spot (which he eventually got, as you now know), was ”Something like this”. I think it’s beautiful and highly recommend it!
Yeah I think this was an excellent job by Voiceplay. They just have a way of making great songs still great but in a Voiceplay way. Loved this!
They are so good my goodness 😌😌
They sure are Rene!
@@bobcieslinski I love listening to Acapella groups... My all-time favorite is Home Free. 🏡🆓🏡🍟
@@reneroberson2784 I saw them for thr first time last October. What an awesome and fun concert.
This cover is outstanding! When James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich wrote and composed this piece in 1992, who would have imagined that 30 years later, by the magic of the internet, artists from the whole world would appropriate the song to create their own version, thus making it universal. The great Elton John, who knows a bit about making universal love songs and ballads, said it's one of the most beautiful song ever written. I suppose you already know it but he made a cover of with Miley Cyrus.
this one was amazing BTW Eli pronounces his name like Elly great reaction ❤🏴
Thanks Gillian!
I was not familiar with the song, but it did not matter. It's Voiceplay, they can do everything and it's wonderful!!
Eli's part did not include that highest note, but he thought it needed it. He recorded it, sent it back to Geoff who agreed that it was perfect. They are all masters of their craft.
I always enjoy your reactions to Voiceplay and Geoff! I subscribed with the first Voiceplay reaction that you did.
Hey its nice to hear from you again Ilona! I appreciate your kind words as always. This song was so awesome. They arrangement was incredible. It was already a great song but they found a way to make it a Voiceplay one. It did not disappoint. Have an awesome day!
I did too, Ilona. Good taste we have!
Geoff did a total of five subharmonic E1s throughout. Any other low sounds (drum) was Layne.
Thanks for thr info Karen!
J.None has three more years in the Navy-we are counting the days and hoping he comes back to Voiceplay when he’s done. Meanwhile, on his own channel, there’s a video of him singing the National Anthem-just straight, smooth, beautiful tone (so many singers feel the need to riff all over the place, but J-who can riff with the best of them-didn’t). It’s one of the best versions I’ve heard-worth checking out. I think the channel is @itsjnone.
If it’s been several days since the song dropped, you can usually scroll down in the comments and see one that has a bunch of blue time signatures. There are a couple people-usually RTSBass-who will actually tell you what the low notes are and how they were produced. It’s really interesting.
As I understand it the arrangement originally called for someone to handle the guitar solo in this piece vocally. Not long before recording date, Geoff asked Layne to see what he could do with his violin, and the rest is history. If they recorded any practice sessions, I’d love to hear the vocal version, but TBH, even if it was absolutely genius, I’m thinking the violin version has incredible impact-took the whole piece up another level. If Layne ever felt like doing violin music on his own channel I’d be there for it. He’s pretty amazing.
Anyway, I’m so glad you got to this. I was afraid you might not. Now for a complete change of pace you should hear the newest one, In My Room (Beach Boys).
Always great to hear from you. Thanks as always for thr info kind words and suggestions. I’m glad I got to this one too. It was awesome!
Heheheh. Eli no Ilai, Eli from Eliezer👌🏻🤙🏻
Metallica did record an orchestral version of this with the London Symphony Orchestra... It is beyond amazing. But this cover is great as well! Not as good as the original, but definitely worth a repeat listen!
Hey thanks for thr info. I didn’t realize they had an instrumental of this. I’ll check it out.
@@bobcieslinski im so sorry it is the San Francisco Orchestra not the LSO.
@@bobcieslinski Not an instrumental. Metallica ,with the San Francisco symphony in 1999. Metallica's S&M(symphony and Metallica) live double album is that performance.
@@chriso6719 oh then yes I’ve seen that. It was epic.
The arrangement Geoff did is so complex and you can tell was written specifically for their abilities. Geoff and Eli just were super nova exceptional. Although Layne smacking us with a.... oh you thought I just beat box, sing, and arrange stuff huh?
When you are ready for Diana Ankudinova again she recently released The Crow and it really shows her growth in just a few years
Thanks for thr heads up in Diana. This one was amazing. They just keep raising the bar.
Geoff hits that low E1 at the start and really gets your attention.
You really must check out their covers of Valhalla Calling and Phantom of the Opera. They are amazing!
Thanks Adam! I’ll have to do that.
This is sooooo goood!!
Completely off topic, but I swear that office looks just like my band director's office in high school right down to the brick wall and the window placement! 🤣
Interesting. He or she has a very homey office. Nice!
Amazing reaction video as always!
Thanks so much Luna! It’s good to hear from you!
I really enjoyed your reaction- thanks! Please check out Voice Play's cover of "Warriors"- both J None and Layne play violins in that one. In their cover of "Warriors", "Violayne" as we are calling him now beatboxes while he totally shreds the violin- you would love that one!
Thanks so much Annette! Sounds like I need to add that to my list. This cover was excellent! Seeing and hearing thr violin would be awesome!
Sorry to make a correction: Eliezer "Eli" Jacobson, the 'Eli" is pronounced "Elee."
Thanks James!
I really enjoyed your comment about the addition of the violin. I agree that I think it would be amazing to hear this song done by an orchestra.
As others have recommended, you really need to check out Warriors. Layne plays the violin throughout and J also jumps in for a little bit.
Not a big metal fan, and this is become one of my all-time favorites of theirs. 🤷🏼♀️
And then they followed it up with Beach Boys! I am very fond of old-school R&B and Motown and J just has that soul tone to his voice. Then they did the Beach Boys with DeeJay. Sounds from my teen years: surfer dudes and Motown. DeeJay’s riffs just really remind me of Smokey Robinson and all those beautiful old harmonies.
Thanks so much Janet! Someone else mentioned their new song and I grew up listening to thr Beach Boys so I have to hear that one.
I think a couple of the lows were true E1 with no sub-harmonics or vocal fry.
Hey Bob...love your reactions.
Voiceplay fan here...
Just a minor point...
Eli in this case is not pronounced
Like E Lye
He pronounces his name Elle ( L-E)
Peace keep up the great work.
Thanks so much for thr kind words and help with his name. I think in thr new In My Room video I finally got it right.
Great reaction Bob. Bob can you play all the interments in your room, I would like to see a demonstration video, I think it would be a blast. ☕&🍩's
Thanks Cliff! Yes I can. I can play clarinets flutes trumpets saxes trombones bass guitar drums. The only ones I really can’t do because it’s been decades is violins. Give me a few weeks and I could figure it out. My job as a band director allows me to play them all all day every day if I choose.
@@bobcieslinski Awesome Bob, thank you.
From what I've heard Eli pronounces his name belly minus the B correct me if I'm wrong ya'll
Know what you should do? House Of The Rising Sun by Geoff Castellucci. I don’t know if you’ve heard the song done by him before but it’s a really good song with some insane bass parts if you like those.
Thanks I’ve never heard that one. If you have a link can you send it please. Thanks!

Side note: Eli is actually pronounced like ellie
Thanks Allen!
It would be soooo cool to hear AnnenMayKantereit with Voiceplay!!!!!
There are only a few groups out there that can sing 🎶 like this! Note: there is not one voice out of tune. Love Eli too, but I am stilled Mitch slapped!
Also love your reactions. Please check out Angelina Jordan.
Thanks I’ve got a couple of hers and another I’ll be doing soon.
May I ask one request please? Can you please pronounce Eli's name correctly? His name rhymes with belly. Thank you.
I’ll do my best but that’s just one I’m having trouble remembering. I’ll get it eventually. I always do. Thanks for your patience!
@@bobcieslinski Thank you.
E-lie?! 🤔🤦 Um....it's pronounced L-E.
