From what I understand, the dilapidated building they’re in used to be a school, and Eli actually attended it as a boy. When he’s singing about “the past is gone,” he’s literally sitting in the ruins of his own past. Intense.

Don’t short shrift yourself-you are very good at reacting, explaining, pointing out features, educating. And I appreciate hearing comparisons to the original (especially since I listen primarily to classical and never heard Aerosmith.) Love your work.

@johnwatson2887 Месяц назад

I never thought of Layne's weird sounds as scary before, but have explained them by positing that he must be an extraterrestrial, which, come to think of it, is pretty scary. 👽😳 I found Sir J's creep-out amusing, though. He must've had some childhood fright in an abandoned building. Context is everything!

@christineschutten248 Месяц назад

It's official. Sir Hairless has coined the phrase "Layne Effect"!😁

@hwyla4416 Месяц назад

I really love their decision to put that intro part later in the song. Beginning with Eli, all alone, gives this a more introspective feel that the original. Almost as if he is talking (singing) to himself. I was a teenager when the song came out originally. To the me of the time, the song seemed to be about unlimited potential. VoicePlay's cover seems more about perseverance through what all has happened to you. This is song #2 of what the Playas (VP Fans) consider their Post-Apocalyptic series. As song #2, it comes with a change of personnel. Earl and J are now gone (they were part of song #1 "Warriors" by Imagine Dragons) and the others have added Cesar and Omar to their group. So, more introspection fits well the 'loss' of two to the presumed zombie hordes. It feels a bit like they are older and wiser. Whenever you get to song #3 ("Seven Nation Army" by The White Stripes") we no longer have Omar. He is replaced by Anthony. And we get a much more militant feel. Militant as in 'I will fight to protect my home and friends', not as in a military feel.

@janeramirez8767 Месяц назад

Exactly! I think you commented essentially the same thing on another reaction video (I hope I replied to it) and it struck me as a very apt description. Aerosmith's original is pretty hopeful, especially for a metal song; VoicePlay's version is less optimistic, more mature. (Makes me wonder how Aerosmith would arrange it today, if it were a brand new song.)

@hwyla4416 Месяц назад

@@janeramirez8767 I find it funny that you refer to it as a 'Metal' song. When it came out, we just considered it 'Rock 'n Roll'. Snicker! I guess the term Metal really didn't hit until the '80s? I think it might have been as a response to what we called 'Corporate Rock' back then, which we felt had lost the true 'rock soul'. I diverged from 'rock' then and entered punk, sliding into alt. rock.

@janeramirez8767 Месяц назад

@@hwyla4416 My bad. I should have said rock, or perhaps "hard rock"? I was no longer in my teens when the original came out, by the way. Aerosmith was eye-opening after my high-school years filled with Beatles and Beach Boys. To my amazement decades later, when I was making my first playlists, I discovered a lot more Beach Boys than Beatles among my favorites. Good preparation for my mature passion for a capella.

@dorothyrosenberg1301 Месяц назад

Thank you for another VP reaction. IMO you cannot find a poor VP performance. I believe their works just get better and better. Each member is a true master of their craft. Layne is probably the best arrangement artist I’ve heard. That he’s a master beatboxer & violinist (and has a beautiful voice) overwhelms me. Eli is a rock god (my age shows here). His voice cuts through me. Cesar is not only delicious honey but also can be quite humorous. What can be said about Geoff? His voice defies description. It just melts flesh from your bones. VP’s guest artists always are incredible. J. None and Omar are my personal favorites. I’m in awe listening to VP’s complex interweaving of sound, their layers of voices interchanging and blending phrases, and their seamless changing keys and rhythms. They transform every song they cover into something original and extraordinary - but I’m biased.

@DavideBaroni Месяц назад

Since the very first time I watched this video, I had the clear impressione that they kind of changed the "context" (and thus the meaning) of the song. It was originally a song about youth and its dreams and "THAT" kind of energy. Voiceplay made it a much more mature, adult song, that I feel being about "being adult now", and what has been achieved and what hasn't, and a reflection on growth. I may be wrong, of course. Wouldn't be strange. It happened many times before and it still will in the future. But it's what I feel about it. 🙂 Thank you for analysing this song. It's always very interesting and instructive to listen to your analysis. 🙂 See you next time!

While "Dream On" isn't my favorite VoicePlay cover (mostly because it's just not one of my favorite songs period), as always they do an amazing job with the song, making it their own. "That Layne effect...yeah, no idea how he does that." Welcome to my world - I have no idea how Layne does almost ANY of the sounds/sound effects he does!😄

@Gael4ce Месяц назад

“Not what I expected”….😆 Umm, yup. They tend to not be predictable. Like, you can usually count on Geoff dropping the bass at some point, but that’s about it. And that isn’t even 100 percent. As to Layne’s weird noise…you haven’t done Seven Nation Army yet, have you? Layne’s entry there I swear is a Transformer transforming. If you know your Transformers, then you know the two that were really into music/sound. Autobot Jazz, and Decepticon Soundwave. Soundwave recorded and played back all sorts of sounds…and he was human sized. When I thought that through, I can’t help but to think that makes more sense than a human being able to do what Layne does. 😝.

@EtherealForever Месяц назад

As before just love your analysis of this one! So Cesar wanted to do/try the high note and Eli said sure 😉. Cesar said in an interview that bit you mentioned as post production they also sang that way - it was just a bit cleaner with a tiny bit of post. Omar was their "5th" member for the Chicago concerts last year - and he was awesome live (as were all of them of course!). They have done quite a few collaborations with him - the first one I believe was "Carry on Wayward Son" (Kansas) - which is another one of my favourites. Again, thanks for these, I learn something new every time. VP is very outspoken about how much thought and work goes into arrangements. Sometimes their stylistic choices are well received and other times it seems controversial to some. PS: You are probably the first person I have seen who says that Layne's "helicopter" sound is scary - LOL. Associations are so personal! 🌹🕊

I would love it if at some point you would react to that cover, too. Dan posted it on May 21, 2014 (about five months before he turned 25...he's now 34). It was done in his old "studio."

Ah, well... thank you, once again. That is actually one of my favourite VoicePlay arrangements ever, even though you are right - all those I have seen are good. But this, to me, was next level. I was not too familiar with the original, so I did not miss anything, and Eli's Solo in the beginning dragged me right into the song. What I really do like about VoicePlay is that they include so many songs from different eras, genres and styles - and it's never really bad and always surprising. But I think I wrote that already. Love how you picked the chords apart, showing which parts stay the same and which parts change. I just started to play the piano and just last week we started to do the same, so seeing it again really helped me grasp the concept better. 🙂

I've been waiting for this one! I wish no one had "spoiled" it by telling you who sang the iconic octave-up chorus. I would have enjoyed watching you figure it out for yourself. I did smile at your reference to "the three tenors." Cesar joined the band as a baritone, and I assume he's still listed as such, but we're told he asked for the high note on this. They gave him the green light and he knocked it out of the park. (Sorry, one of my other passions is baseball.) Have you reacted yet to "The Dragonborn Comes"? Right after Geoff's vertiginous opening part, Cesar has a luscious short solo in his baritone range. It's my favorite moment in that one.

Your knowledge on music is very impressive and I love watching your multiple skills/strategies used to elucidate and breakdown the intricacies of what they did in such finer detail. I couldn’t be more pleased after watching a video where you explain so many interesting things to us and also play some guitar, the piano, vibe & lip-synch along the chorus… yes… you rock, Sir!🤘

Such an iconic song definitely presents a risk (...but with VoicePlay, is it really ever a risk?!) Haha my inner scaredy-cat has been exposed by.....VoicePlay Cheers!

@christinestromberg4057 Месяц назад

The guys said that Eli or Cesar could have done that high note but Cesar wanted try so they said ok, and he did it briliantly, with the others in harmony. Geoff has also said that you need to hear Omar and EJ live as the power of their voices is incredible and isn't apparent through a screen. In the short of The Lion Sleeps Tonight, Cesar actually does some whistle notes towards the end.

I heard this song several times over a decade ago and did not even listen to it again before hearing this cover. So when I first heard this cover, “Was this song like this?” I had a question. However, in the middle of the song, my memory and hearing matched, “Yes, this is the song. ", I thought it was because of the symbolic phrase “dream on,” but your explanation convinced me. It was because of that intro.

Love how you said you need “mental breaks” in lieu of copyright breaks. Lol I totally get it when it comes to Voice Play! They can be mind blowing at times, especially with these Rock covers! My favorite genre of all time! (Still waiting for Home Free to rock out again (their cover of “Born In the USA) wasn’t in real Rock style, but hey could do something different and make it their own. There are two one-minute shorts of them doing the beginning of “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Don’t Stop Believin’”. Anyway, I really enjoyed this analysis. There was much to discuss since there was so much going on.

This was fabulous! Eli really has the rocker grit I love in these numbers. I love how they really give the guest a chance to shine. I'm still waiting for Hall of the mountain king. Although they have no lyrics, the changes of tempo and musical style, not to mention the comedy make it one of my favorites. I also have a soft spot for Grieg.

I adore finding reaction and analysis channels for voiceplay. Emphasis on the analysis bits instead of just making funny faces. I appreciate finding artists who get to discover the skill and sheer talent from this group. This has been great and entertaining and I look forward to more of these from your channel!

@raycardy4843 Месяц назад

Thank you for another awesome reaction and analysis! This was the second in their 'post-apocalyptic' series - 'Warriors' was the first (although some count their 'Panic at the disco' parts as earlier ones!), then this one, followed by 'Seven Nation Army' - all set in abandoned buildings, with a similar look to the costuming. Can't wait for the next one! 😊

@thisismetoday7423 Месяц назад

@nightthornkvala94132 Месяц назад

Their sound in this song my be colored by the fact that this is the second of a post-apocalyptic storyline. The first song in the story is Warriors by Imagine Dragon and the third is Seven Nation Army ft. Anthony Gargiula.

@bjspeck4337 Месяц назад

I don't know how Layne managed to swallow a helicopter. Eli was going to do the highest part but Cesar really wanted to try it and Eli let him run with it. Warriors is really good too. All part of the post-apocalyptic trilopgy - Warriors, Dream On, Seven Nation Army.

One of my favorite songs is Drean On by Aerosmith , I listened with an open mind , I think I don't care for this version. Even though it's totally different ( different band, different song) nothing will change my mind as to Aerosmith is iconic -it's hands down my no. 1 and . No shade on Voice Play..... they are great. Aerosmith has it 100%. ❤️R/A🎼

@guadalupejazminvilaguillen4786 Месяц назад

Well yeah I mean Cesar has a great part here but I wouldn't say he steals the show. I like Omar here the most, followed by Eli and Geoff. Just cause Cesar voice sounds the most generic to me, even though I love Cesar, let's set that in stone. This one always flies so fast to me, I wonder why that impression, maybe the long intro, or maybe it is just shorter. Anyways Voiceplay is my favorite acapella group and this is why. They DONT MISS.

@minamishoujo Месяц назад

There's a lot of voiceplay live performance on RU-vid but most of them are recorded on phone and has a lot of noise, some clear one that can be found in their official youtube channel is "love on top" with emoni and a fun one "road trip" these are some of their performance during the sing off tour.
