He calls himself Taliesin Jaffe because if you knew his real name, you would be driven mad from the eldritch voices that would echo in your mind for all time.
Cant believe laura bailey, the wife of travis willingham, didnt know down with the sickness. Her husband knows 3 songs and they are all down with the sickness
@JnEricsonx I think that was the reference. Pretty sure one of the three in that video said Travis only knows three songs and they’re all down with the sickness
Have you seen Ashley in high-stress situations while playing D&D, or narrative telephone? Stress and time pressure are kryptonite to her ability to remember *anything.*
@@michaelrodger Wednesday Club. I found out about that from a comment about them using an MCR song as a placeholder this season (replaced with Matt's song in episode 7). Gerard wrote (writes?) comics, so they had him and several other authors/artists on as guests.
God, I love these guys so much! Taliesin is my spirit Critter with his obscure knowledge. I also LOVED how they all got the musicals without any hesitation, lol!
CR is my special interest, these are some of my favorite humans on the entire planet... This was a FREAKING DELIGHT. My heart is SO FULL. Thank you for this video.
hell yeah! these guys practically do this already all the time at the table, they hear one word and burst into song (obviously making my way) but one that comes into mind it’s c3e110 when laura burst into Don’t Know Much
This was epic! I totally get blanking on songs when you're put on the spot, lol. Ashley was soooo relatable here. Also noticing that a chunk of the songs from the try not to sing made it into this one, and it brought back the memories of Travis, Matt and Marisha being hilarious. And now I wanna watch that video again XD I was *screaming* when they didn't get Down With the Sickness!! I swear I could hear Travis from the ether lolol
Fun trivia - Mary Elizabeth McGlynn (the voice director for TLoVM and voice of Zahra) performed "Danger Zone" for the soundtrack of a video game (I'm assuming it's the Top Gun video game, but I don't know for sure). YES, we need that jingle episode!
my favorite part of this is i know they can all actually sing. and yet this is what we get lol. but it was fun when they blended one song into the next
let's be honest the best part is when the songs just immediately transition into each other as someone doesn't want to let go of one but someone else is already singing the next xDDD
Given her track record with Narrative Telephone, Ashley really surprised me! I think we've found her memory Grove! It's music and Ashley should just sing all her narrative telephones from now on!
@@Caitydid561 yeah I know - I just thought it was funny out of all the songs there were 2 that they like all sang all the words together and that was the two songs from musicals hahah
I can't believe they passed 'Down With the Sickness' Travis is officially firing ALL of their asses as we speak 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 (this is a joke but REALLY GUYS COME ON)
Talisan continues to be my spirit animal with the "I know the Paw Paw Bears theme song." No one even remembers the Paw Paw Bears let alone the theme song.
The critical role videos on this channel are literally the only ones I've watched in the better part of a decade since the fine brothers pulled their BS.
He calls himself Taliesin Jaffe because if you knew his real name, you would be driven mad from the eldritch voices that would echo in your mind for all time.
Like, Charlie Daniels wrote that song about Tal.
Too late, I already have. :)
Those who know, know that he's a pyramid.
Chefs kiss!
I love him so much. Hes my favorite
Ashley and Taliesin actually carried hard. Also I now want to see Ashley play bard, damn it.
I'd really like to see taliesin tho! I think he's got a lovely voice and the innate charm to pull it off
I agree with both of you, and also still maintain everyone would kill an Oops All Bards oneshot
I love Ashley so much.
She has two settings:
1. I'm totally blanking , uuurghh.
2. 110% in it
Cant believe laura bailey, the wife of travis willingham, didnt know down with the sickness. Her husband knows 3 songs and they are all down with the sickness
More so because they DID that song in the last react, Travis, Matt and Marisha.
@JnEricsonx I think that was the reference. Pretty sure one of the three in that video said Travis only knows three songs and they’re all down with the sickness
@@ethanuirahall8659 And I was so brain fried at meeting or re-meeting them I had totally forgotten about that video. :(
The involuntary theatre kid reflex to finishing the lyrics is painfully recognisable :D
Gods I'd be the same XD
5:24 Travis must be SCREAMING that no one got Disturbed
Laura got an absolute earful when he saw this...and the Cowboys suck so he's having an awful week lololol
What Ashley doesn’t remember in narrative telephone comes back in remembering songs
She can't be expected to remember what she just heard 2 minutes ago when her brain is full of 40 years of music! 😂
"Well they're Pentatonix!!!!" This is the most Pike Trickfoot thing ever said on a React video!!! hahahaha
Love seeing Ashley in one of the group interviews/games. We dont see her enough 🫶
Every song they missed, Travis or Marisha would have sang from the depths of their souls. 😂
KEN-tucky
One victory they reached that wasn't addressed in the roundup: They got more songs than the Descendants cast.
Shout out to Laura Bailey for keeping the cards moving 🎉
Right if she hadn't they would have sung an entire song
sam holding on to them lmao
Somewhere, Travis willing ham is glaring at his wife for not knowing his favorite song.
Would've been amazing if we had a mirrored "Travis is calling..." scene! XD
Ashley immediately launching into the rest of Chop Suey when Joe says "WAKE UP" was great
Miss Ashley Johnson immediately starting to sing Misery Business from Paramore... She's a QUEEN😎
this just makes me want Ashley to play a bard some day even more haha
Hell yasss
Ashley blanking on Chop Suey when her and Travis reference that song constantly is wild
Have you seen Ashley in high-stress situations while playing D&D, or narrative telephone? Stress and time pressure are kryptonite to her ability to remember *anything.*
@@Peter_Cordes that is very true xD
Theater kids! xD
Also I love how competitive Laura is, ripping the paper from Sam's hands and going "neeext" hahahah
4:03 Ashley did a cover for Creep btw, it'so good, check it out if you haven't heard it guys
@@florencelow7363 omg i completely forgot about that. she’s such a great singer in general
why did i scream at the screen when it was chop suey .... I think travis and marisha will be "pissed" at some of the missed ones
Oh 100% they are gonna look at these 5 and go “what the F*ck?”
Laura is definitely going to get an ear full when she gets home.
Taliesin remembered how he lost his golden fiddle to a boy named Johnny
The fact that Taliesin does in fact listen to MCR (disregarding that he panicked in the moment) makes me so happy
He and Gerard were on one of the Geek and Sundry shows together back in the day
@ yeah I remembered that after I made my comment lmao
@@michaelrodger Wednesday Club. I found out about that from a comment about them using an MCR song as a placeholder this season (replaced with Matt's song in episode 7). Gerard wrote (writes?) comics, so they had him and several other authors/artists on as guests.
@jonathanhibberd9983 I knew I remembered it just forgot the show. Yea Gerard wrote the Umbrella Academy comic which is what the show is based off of
Ashley is such a gift LOL "WHAAAT"
I would kill to watch Ashley and Liam karaoke together
Tal and Ashley did SO GOOD, and the theater geeks ruled
I feel like we learned so much about Ashley Johnson in this lol
"You did not beat Pentatonix."
"What a SHOCKER!"
😂😂
You can tell they’re theatre kids 😂😂😂
Nice to see Ashley, she's the cast member you rarely see in these videos
Fr she’s my favourite as well 😭
Travis is gonna be SO upset with Laura for not knowing possibly THE ONLY song in his playlist
32. Down with the Sickness - Disturbed
God, I love these guys so much! Taliesin is my spirit Critter with his obscure knowledge. I also LOVED how they all got the musicals without any hesitation, lol!
i knew paramore stan ashley johnson would not fail me 🫡
Ashley Johnson nailing this many of them while also being pure chaos is very Ashley Johnson of her
UA-cam officially knows I would watch any video with the CR cast in it.
CR is my special interest, these are some of my favorite humans on the entire planet... This was a FREAKING DELIGHT. My heart is SO FULL. Thank you for this video.
was not on my 2024 list of Liam going "walk up into the club like what up I got a big ____"
Almost all the songs they missed, Matt, Travis, or Marisha would have had it lol They need the whole group 🤝
For real
These are some of the most delightful human beings on planet earth. Love having the privilege to watch them goof off for a living.
Travis is gonna have some WORDS with y'all for not getting Down with the Sickness
And chop suey
"*doesnt get a popular recent song* We're not cool... *immedietly sings Back in Black*" (seems pretty cool to me)
was looking for this comment this lmao XD
Liam's two specialist areas are apparently Gangsta Rap and Female teen-bop Singer-Songwriters
Taliesin and Ashley ATE THIS UP
sam ending with the “we love you very much and is it thursday yet?” AAAWWWWWWWW I LOVE HIM DEARLY
Ashley and Taliesin absolutely crushing it
Ashley gives the energy we need for the week. Thank you XD
I'm sorry but Laura not getting Travis's favorite song (Down with the Sickness) is hilarious.
hell yeah! these guys practically do this already all the time at the table, they hear one word and burst into song
(obviously making my way)
but one that comes into mind it’s c3e110 when laura burst into Don’t Know Much
This was epic! I totally get blanking on songs when you're put on the spot, lol. Ashley was soooo relatable here. Also noticing that a chunk of the songs from the try not to sing made it into this one, and it brought back the memories of Travis, Matt and Marisha being hilarious.

Fun trivia - Mary Elizabeth McGlynn (the voice director for TLoVM and voice of Zahra) performed "Danger Zone" for the soundtrack of a video game (I'm assuming it's the Top Gun video game, but I don't know for sure).
YES, we need that jingle episode!
"How many elf ears?"
"Just enough for the twins."
I love them so much
Taliesin killed this. As expected from the legendary immortal eldritch himself.
They could have got all of them with Taliesin's eldritch powers but he restrained himself to only beating the descendants cast.
I love how vibrant Taliesin became "lately", the way he jokes and laughs like he's out of a somber spell.
Ashley and Taliesin MVP for this one
my favorite part of this is i know they can all actually sing. and yet this is what we get lol. but it was fun when they blended one song into the next
78. Sam did not guess, he knew. He likes to hide it, but he is eerily smart.
btw this is 69 and Nein extra.
Indeed! A mighty nein!
rumor has it taliesin is still really bitter he lost his gold fiddle to that kid down in georgia
Love how they immediately ace any of the songs that have to do with musical theater
All of them are theater nerds :D
And Sam was on Broadway as a kid!
They passing Down with the sickness hurt Travis Willingham SO DEEP.
Glad to see Sam back after his treatment
and sounding great!
I could HEAR travis' disappointment of not getting Down with the Sickness
IIRC that was on the Try Not To Sing with Travis, Matt, and Marisha.
All they had to say was Oh Wah ah ah ah ah!
Bring them back ALL the time we love them thank you - Every CR fan ever
I love this group of idiots (affectionate) so freaking much
Ashley and Tal BEASTING so many of these!
I just checked and they beat the descendents cast by 4!!!
That was such a specific goal on Taliesin's part that I am glad they got it 😂
ashley johnson gives me so much serotonin
let's be honest the best part is when the songs just immediately transition into each other as someone doesn't want to let go of one but someone else is already singing the next xDDD
Laura: God, we're so old
*Next song: Back in Black
Everyone: BACK IN BLACK!!!!
GUYS! They got 69, plus a Mighty 9!
Okay. It makes me incredibly happy that they knew the Gummy Bears theme song. I still sing that at least once a week.
One of the best theme songs of all time.
Absolutely agree 👍🏼
Taliesin was there when music was invented, of course he knows all of them
The Gummi Bears: "THESE ARE MY PEOPLE"
Space Jam: "Ok, I question everything I thought I know."
So they basically got 69 points and a mighty 9 on top.
So the Mighty Nein are 69ing? ....this was Jester's idea, wasn't it?
Given her track record with Narrative Telephone, Ashley really surprised me! I think we've found her memory Grove! It's music and Ashley should just sing all her narrative telephones from now on!
They missed down with the sickness!? Laura is going to be hearing from Travis. lol
Laura ATE that You Oughta Know riff and people are sleeping on it.
It's been years since I hit a React video and I'm not disappointed. Love this group :)
I bet Travis is gonna be mostly upset about them not getting Down with the sickness🤭
Show me your tonsils
OH AH AH AH AH
This was absolute chaos and I would expect nothing less from them. I love it
haha the musical Les Mis of course they are all into that theater song baby! (haha same with Seemore)
Sam was Gavroche on Broadway as a kid. Of course they'd know Les Mis!
@@Caitydid561 yeah I know - I just thought it was funny out of all the songs there were 2 that they like all sang all the words together and that was the two songs from musicals hahah
I’m sorry but Ashley killed this she is a legend
So…. What this video showed me is Tal needs to be a bard at some point😂
I live in hope
Or ashley, they both got the most songs
I suggested to him at a con that one of my char ideas is a Dragonborn paladin, and he did say he's never focused on a Paladin yet. Campaign 4?
I sort of want to see Laura and Tavis against Marisha and Matt. Critical Role: Try not to Sing: Couples edition.
I dunno. Matt did pretty good on the last one.
@@secretsalute so did Travis!
Yes, that's true but it would just be interesting, to see the two couples play against each other, IMHO
I relate to sam. I can't pull lyrics out, but I will mimic the instrumentals like a boss
Ashley being the only one who knew Missery Business somehow makes sense xD
I need Critical Role Karaoke
Yes please
Yes! I love when the CR cast shows up on my feed that’s not even n their channel. I need more! Some of the songs seems like it was picked for them!
Ashley coming in clutch with the Garth Brooks, damn. I didn't think they would get that one
5:25 Laura, you are married to Travis Hampton Willingham. How do you not know a Disturbed song?
Let me see your tonsils
UH AH AH AH HAH!
@@tomaszskowronski1406points for being a CR/music fan. Matt had it ROUGH with those challenges.
The way they get most of the oldies and really nerdy stuff made my day.
Ashley should know. She a child star from the late 80s and 90s
Okay but Pentatonix also had a bunch of Christmas songs in there video so I feel like CR did pretty good
Ashley killed it tbh
Ashley Johnson just makes me happy all the time, that's wild
Not Taliesin trying to do better than the cast of Descendants
Nor Sam wanting to beat them physically 🤣
I can't believe they passed 'Down With the Sickness'
Travis is officially firing ALL of their asses as we speak 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
(this is a joke but REALLY GUYS COME ON)
xD
I literally thought "Travis is going to be SO disappointed in them, ESPECIALLY Laura" xD
He probably went into a rage when he saw it!!
Talisan continues to be my spirit animal with the "I know the Paw Paw Bears theme song." No one even remembers the Paw Paw Bears let alone the theme song.
but what about the Wuzzles?
This is pure chaos. I love it 😂
Kaos Krew!
Love laura keepin the pace up lol
She's really competitive 😂
The critical role videos on this channel are literally the only ones I've watched in the better part of a decade since the fine brothers pulled their BS.
@@dude11579 lol same. ITS BEEN A DECADE ALREADY WTF
@lagggoat7170 its been 8 years since that fiasco, apparently. I didn't even know about a whole other more recent snafu.
Say what now about a recent one??
Taliesin not getting Black parade is crazy
He often confuses it with an obscure pagan parade march from 1521
I literally yelled, "Taliesin!"
YESS! Bring them back for jingles and theme songs. This was so much fun!
