This was Geoffs very first solo work. You can see/hear he loves this song. I'm not sure if he acted Baloo during his amusement park jobs, but I love to think so. Geoff was born in Virhinia and moved to Florida as he was around 6. He can pull out the twang if he wants to. For a real mancrush moment, go watch Country Roads Take Me Home. It has hit many a reactor.
All of Geoff’s stuff is ridiculously good. Ain’t no sunshine, high and dry, house of the rising sun, ghost riders in the sky, monster mash and country roads are all insane. Can’t wait to see your reactions to them
Geoff is also a beatboxer , and a beatbox Teacher in around the Florida theme park studios ! Along with his Voiceplay crew and family !❤❤❤ melt away Australia 🙏🇺🇸🍺⭐️
It's funny to watch these earlier videos to see how he has changed. Years ago he used to always drop his shoulder to go deep. He now can go deep with only moving his hand so that's growth right?! 😂😂
Shenandoah, Country Road, Take Me Home and Saddle Up are Geoff Country songs for your (ever-growing) list! In the last one, Layne has a great role as annoyed couch buddy, and in the first one, Geoff's piano work is awesome (and Country Roads is of course the sing-along song)!
Shenandoah, take me home country roads, blackbird, and monster mash are my favourite of Geoff's solo works. If you enjoy disney I really recommend voiceplay songs - friends on the other side, go the distance, little mermaid medley. My mother told me and hoist the colours are wonderful. There's so many fantastic options and I've loved seeing you discover voiceplay, geoff, Tim and Home free. I enjoy voiceplay a little more but love the way the fans from all the acapella groups support good music. Once you get more familiar with home free and their style, I'd recommend their cover of end of the road, and then rob and Austin doing opera. So much good stuff to hear
He’s not so much ‘putting on’ a country twang as he he just letting it out. Most singers (unless they want to be a country singer) will work to lose that twang. But Geoff was raised in Virginia and then Florida, and sometimes it comes out in his speaking voice too. Next time you want to have a fun Geoff solo video, try Way Down. He’ll give you more than his voice to think about!
Thanks for another emotional reaction, with the shook face every time Geoff when high! Inability to sit still in your chair! Your face and movements when Geoff started talking or singing very low was awesome! Also amazing that nearly every other day you are able to treat us to Geoff or Voiceplay reaction (as well as other great reactions). All the best
Wait until you dive into VoicePlay's Nightmare Before Christmas covers! Get ready to be shocked and fall out lol! Geoff is affectionately called the dragon slayer by some (me included) but that man's range is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. We all have a crush on Geoff! Check out Saddle Up for another fun one! Love your reactions
🥳🥳🥳CAN'T BELIEVE WE HAVE HIT 2000 SUBSCRIBERS!!!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!! 🥳🥳🥳 This community is new, but I have been blown away by how amazing all the people in the comments and on Discord are! There is so much love, support and kindness here and I'm blessed to have you all supporting me!!!! Lets go for 2000 more!!! 😄😄😄😄
This Geoff cover holds a special place in my heart, too. The Jungle Book the first Disney movie that I clearly remember seeing in the theater at age six (waaaaaaay back in 1978 on the first re-release), though I know I saw a couple of others before it. Baloo was the first animated character that I just desperately wished was real so I could hang out with him.
Believe me, we are all in a crush on Geoff. And Kathy. And all the folks in Voiceplay. They all come across as the kind of people you would love to have in your life. I have a bad crush on Geoff, But Oh Lord, Eli going Rock God...
Can't wait for you to watch The Little Mermaid medley that Voiceplay did. I think you'll love it! Watching your videos puts a sparkle in my day. You're doing an amazing job. ❤
@@dj_410 Have fun at patreon with their new song ... Will join you all at patreon as soon as I'm back at work and getting paid (right now I'm on maternity leave)
This, and Saddle Up, were some of his earlier videos and very simple, but his talent still shows through. It’s pretty phenomenal when you look at his more recent works to just see how much he has progressed as far as artistic expression in the last few years. I still love these early ones, but then I look at what he’s been doing recently and it just blows me away. Saddle Up was on an OLD Disney “This was the West” and was sung by Thurl Ravenscroft who is someone Geoff really admires. (he was the person who sang the grinch song in the cartoon and was also the voice of Tony the Tiger on the old Frosted Flakes commercials: “They’re GREAT”. It’s another really fun one with Layne generally being irritated😂 You might want to go out and look for a few of the minis that are Disney inspired. VoicePlay did That’s What Friends are For (the vulture’s song from The Jungle Book), the song from the Tiki Room (Cesar is adorable), YoHo song from The Pirates of the Caribbean ride (Layne is insane), Surface Pressure from Encanto. I think that’s all the Disney ones. His twang is sort of natural as he was born in Virginia. In a lot of his videos he’ll either say “come on”or “yeah” in that real deep voice. You might really enjoy VP’s Daddy Sang Bass - it’s very country fried! I’ve tried listening to ASMR to see if I could relax and it usually just annoys me. But Geoff’s voice is so smooth that I have four or five of his slower songs on a repeating loop in a playlist that I use at bedtime sometimes. It just takes away all my stress. Maybe his vocal range is your ASMR trigger!
He has narrated stories also. He read the original Little Mermaid and The Raven and other works also. Your reactions still make me smile all the way through. My FAVORITE song he has covered is Ain't No Sunshine. When that comes on my playlist I rewind it several times just to listen to it again and again.
Geoff is also the one who drew me into the VoicePlay fandom and despite the fact that I love them all he is totally my favorite. You are in good company - many of us who love VoicePlay love Geoff first. :)
Geoff plus Disney is always going to be amazing, whether he does it with voiceplay or on his channel he always just knows how to make it amazing and nostalgic. Thanks for the amazing reaction as always friend, this made me smile❤
If you want to 'experience' Geoff's ranges......Oogie Boogie Song, Little Mermaid, Queen in 5 minutes, Blackbird, Enemy, almost anything and everything he does will 'catch' you, just right......I opined, if he could 'bottle' the effect he has on some people, and sell it, he would call it either "Eargasms", or "Panty Droppers"....it is all about his vocal frequencies......>^^
Do a reaction to Geoff's cover of Elvis Presley's "Way Down" please. You will enjoy it and find out what his clones are named. You make me smile...thank you!
He does some tutorials on how he get those low notes, it's a worth a watch. Also check out The Charismatic Voice, Elizabeth is her name and she is an Opera singer and she does analysis on all types of music. She did an interview with Geoff it's worth a watch, on your own or if want to react to on your channel.
This is the first cover video on his channel, and it's also the simplest, just him in cameras and different colors in the background... After that, we already see Geoff and his clones impacting us with each new video with their incredible creativity and talent.❤
This takes me back to being a young girl of 13 in 1967. It was a very big deal back then my dad let me go to the movie theatre with my friends to see The Jungle Book. Such good memories this song brings back. If you're a patron Geoff's he's having a live chat tomorrow March 25. See you there.
This one was so cute! Voiceplay did a series of ACA Top 10. They did Disney Heroes, Villains and Sidekicks. They are older, Tony is in some of them and you will love them. Also, they were recorded live.
This was the very first solo video he posted, and still one of my favorites! If you wanna see him really having fun, please react to his "Way Down" cover (Elvis last hit). It will break you, for musical and non-musical reasons; it's so amazing!! 😍 Thanks for another great reaction, and for following Geoff and VP so much!
Great reaction.... this was, i believe, his forst solo song and i totally love it, it has such a fun vibe from him! If you are keen to expand your reaction horizon (i know geoff, voiceplay and home free are plenty) there is this singer called dimash. Im not gonna spoil anything, just saying: you will be impressed when you hear him. Start with his 'sos' from the show singer and see if you like it, he has plenty of stuff out there and he is simply amazing!
Geoff actually reads. Look out on his channel, he does mainly Poe stuff (and since I'm just a teenie-weenie lil pansy, I usually don't like horror stuff, and didn't dare to listen to those). So, if you're in for some earth-core-shaking thrill, try them out.
such a simple video, but the Geoff's voice made it perfectly. so uplifting! as well as disney's videos of Voiceplay (medley or songs). always fun! glad to see you smile!
He is soo dang good. That voice is amazing. I don't have any words, im just like oh my god.. Thank you for these videos, they are the highlight of my day. Keep it up hun 🥰❤
Geoff also plays Shere Khan as the gang play the vultures in one of their minis - That’s what friends are for - from The Jungle Book too! ru-vid.comUWbVlIXcPas?feature=share You’d probably like their ACA top ten Disney videos. They have several 🤩 Keep enjoying those videos! 😊
"Geoff Can-I-have-a-smoochie" 🤣 Perfect! 👍 Try Geoff's version of "Way Down" to see him having some fun - and have your socks blown off again!! Love your reactions and congrats on breaking the 2k subs mark 🙂
Thank you for another great reaction to Geoff. If you really want Geoff at his funniest ever then you must please do a reaction video to Voice Play/ one minute musicals : Miley Cyrus. Geoff wrote the music & lyrics to this & it is absolutely hilarious. Also Voice Play / one minute musical: Light Bulb. The music & lyrics are by Eli from Voice Play. Because they are short videos you could do them both at the same sitting. I have been begging everyone to do a reaction to these for the past two months & nobody has. I guarantee you will love them. It doesn't get requested because they were from 2015 & everyone keeps focusing on the newer ones. Not many people even heard these songs.
Lovely reaction as always! I agree, everyone in VoicePlay is amazing and I always find something new to appreciate about each member every time I go through a video, but there's always something about Geoff's voice that draws me in first. For another video that really showcases Geoff's range and VoicePlay's humor in general, you should check out one of the recordings of them doing "Elvira" live! It's another Geoff arrangement and it shows off a bit of how Geoff enjoyed playing with audiences' expectations and interactions! Yeah, Geoff sometimes has a bit of a southern accent, I find it incredibly charming! If you want some more "country boy vibe" from Geoff, check out "Ghost Riders in the Sky", "Take me home, country roads" or "Saddle up"! Saddle up is more on the fun side while "Ghost Riders" is all-out epic with amazing costumes and western vibes! I also want to throw out there for your (surely very long) reactions list - The collaborations VoicePlay did with Kurt Hugo Schneider, "Wavin' Through a Window" (Eli really gets to shine in this one!) and "Twenty One Pilots mashup" (Geoff and Eli take on the "Stressed Out" rap!) I'd also *highly* recommend listening to some of Geoff's narrations in your own time! He stays in that deep, warm voice throughout those (except in The Little Mermaid where he puts on some voices). My personal favorite this month (it changes over time) is his narration of "The Raven" from Edgar Allen Poe. It's truly like being wrapped in a blanket made from his voice. It's also a short and nice introduction to the longer ones he's made! Thanks again for sharing your wonderful reactions, they truly brighten bad days!
I agree! Geoff’s narrations are so good. It took me 3 attempts to get through The Little Mermaid because I kept falling asleep. Great for my insomnia, but not what I expected. My favourite Geoff narration is The Landlady.
Awesome reaction as always Dylan. Voiceplay did a mini of him as Kaa, That's What Friends Are For (The Vulture Song). Which fit him because of his deep voice.
This was the first Geoff video I ever saw and it's such a favorite of mine - I absolutely LOVED your reaction!! Your passion for Geoff's voice mirror's my own.
I'd recommend Ain’t No Sunshine. or Ghost Riders in the Sky... House of the Rising Sun is also great. IMO these three top his solo work beyond what you've already seen. Granted I can't think of a bad Geoff song... but those three stand out to me due to their completeness and transformation of the original works, where they feel like they could almost be their own song. Granted Black Bird might have you on the floor twitching. Just sayin'.
I had not seen this before. And I can't think of a better way to discover it than with you. I love watching people discover music and musicians they love. Have you watched his Ghost Riders in the Sky? Buckle in. And for another bass singer surprise, take a look at Tim Foust's "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow / Stay" medley. It's on his solo channel. He also does a pretty fine version of Misty Mountains with Peter Hollens. That one is on Peter's channel. Enjoy!
Try feeling it! i just slept 9 hours and am still not recovered!! hahaha We were having a discussion in my Patreon Discord and I think my current dream is to hear Geoff sing Feed Me from Little Shop of Horrors!! he would do an amazing Audrey 2!!!!!
Your mention of Geoff singing literally any book made me think of setting Atlas Shrugged, with the 60 page John Galt speech, to music for Geoff to sing. Get on it, DJ.
For high note Geoff find a live performance video of VoicePlay Elvira. Unfortunately they haven't got an official video/track for it. He also does Kaa's trust in me song from jungle book in VoicePlay's ACA Disney villains video
If you want to see Geoff cut loose and have fun, you can't really beat Way Down. If we get a version of Jungle Book with Geoff as the voice of Baloo, can we get Cesar as Mowgli, Eli as Bagheera, and Layne as the monkeys? The orang king even has a short beat-boxing part.
It is high on the list! so much to react to, so little time hahaha this is looking like it might be my next one though... or house of the rising sun... or Aint no sunshine... omg there are too many good choices!!
@@dj_410 to help with that - pick according to your mood. Ain't No Sunshine is beautiful and sad. You feel the melancholy. Way Down is laugh out loud funny and shows his quirkiness. House of the Rising Sun is simple and fun and low - some have described it as him just showing off. So - pick according to which feels like the right mood!
Christina Dowdican I love your reactions & seeing you really get into the music so much so i have subscribed to your channel. Geoff also has audio readings over on his channel. He has such a soothing voice when reading/ reciting books or poetry. Check it out i think you might like them
You should check out Voiceplay's Disney medleys! There's quite a few of them, and if you really wanna hear a song where Geoff hits every single one of his five octave range? Oogie Boogie's Song. Trust me, you will not regret it dude.
As for doing a wide tonal range in a short time, whether it's a literal slide or not, yeah, there are plenty of vids where he covers 3 1/2 or even 4 octaves in a short space. Voiceplay: Tennessee Whiskey... repeatedly thumping thru a wide-ranging "bass guitar" line. Oogie Boogie... same phrase, repeated back-to-back in different octaves. Little Mermaid Medley... a long slide all on one syllable. ("Souls.") Solo Vids: Shenandoah Till Then Ain't No Sunshine [This is not an exhaustive list, of course.]
React to The Raven if you want to hear his “regular voice” it’s him reading a poem no video just audio. But you are going to need to take a pill first. It’s that good
Speaking of the Jungle Book, it might be VoicePlay's shortest mini, but in it, Geoff sings the part of Shere Khan: That's What Friends Are For. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UWbVlIXcPas.html
