Panic! In Four Minutes (Part 1&2) -- VoicePlay -- SUCH ACAPELLA!! -- 307 Reacts -- Episode 169

[@camctrail]

Geoff: Long hair, voice down in hell Eli (pronounced like Ellie): bald guy Earl: stocky dude, voice doesn't match him at all, left the group a year ago, they're still working out a replacement for him J-None: black dude, left the group for the military, will come back once service is done. Cesar De La Rosa is his replacement Layne: weird noise guy

[@franwiththeredhair]

Weird noise guy ahahahahahah I am dead!!!!! lol

[@daventunes3822]

The first soloist is Earl, the longtime high tenor that is no longer with the group, whose departure resulted in all the guest artists in the most recent videos. The one who went into the Navy is the black guy, J. None, who is a tenor/baritone. His departure was fairly recent but they've already hired a replacement for him - Cesar de la Rosa. High tenor spot is still open. I think they might be trying to figure out if they need a male or female for that. Earl's high notes were insane.

[@generalgrievousproductions]

Just goes to prove how easily replaceable every single one of us is. Nobody in this world actually matters to anyone.

[@caroleb.9387]

Great reaction! There is a prequel to this that shows how they got captured - “Trapped” (Billie Eilish medley) that was filmed after the Panic at the Disco videos were made. Also a very good video! The continuity of their costumes was impressive. 😉

[@chenmd16]

Just coming on here to add that.👍

[@jimmygammon2352]

With sticking to the medley's, their Queen in 5 Minutes is astonishing

[@MichaelHHeng]

Sent to you by your mother? Then "My Mother told me" by Voiceplay is a must 😜

[@PiscesintheRain]

Awesome reaction, dudes! I'd definitely suggest their Queen in 5 Minutes medley - same lineup as this one, and everyone gets a chance to shine.

[@CynicalTesuji]

Oh my, now that you've done Panic!, you definitely need to check out its prequel- Trapped: Billie Eilish in 3 Minutes. Those two pieces make up a (confirmed by VoicePlay) storyline- you've seen the ending, but now you ought to see how they end up there! Also, it's a simply phenomenal arrangement, more of a mashup than a medley. Really, really good stuff.

[@gregsteele806]

They have the Jingle Bells / Mission Impossible video too. It seems to follow the same theme.

[@Chris_T_S]

Seen Voice Play around - never listened to them until now DAYUM! lol

[@thelivingmiracle]

The Bass guy Geoff Castellucci has his own YT channel and his music is insane

[@vickiroman189]

They just get better. And they're sitting down. Their cover of Imagine Dragons' "Warriors": kzbin.info/www/bejne/en_LZ5KOqseAaKM Geoff's drop at 1:56 is ridiculous (and you guys are so much fun - thank you!)

[@littleminxx9171]

Voiceplay are MASTERS!!! Glad you found them.. Subbed!!

[@307Reacts]

Thanks soo much for the sub! They do impress us every time we watch them!!!

[@thelivingmiracle]

Geoff Castellucci has an insane range, recommend the Oogie Boogie Song to hear his insane range

[@spadeas49]

I literally subscribed after this one. I'm a fan of Voiceplay and I love the fact that you seem to have a musical background. You are insightful not only on vocals, but also on arrangement or other musical stuff, and I love that. If you want to continue in the medley genre, I highly recommend their "Queen in 5min" or "Boys Band in 5min", they are fun to watch and have a smooth transition too. I would add that one of the cool things about Voiceplay, besides the fact that they love what they do and it shows, making their video fun to watch, is that the more you go to their recent production, and the better they are. In short, keep it up and hello from France ^^.

[@307Reacts]

Thanks for the kind words and the sub! We really appreciate you coming along for the ride! Cheers from Wyoming! 🍻😁🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@susanbradley5685]

I introduced the Sales manager @Nissan to VP while buying my new car today. I left him with a long "homework" list of VP, Home Free, PTX, and Voctave vids to watch. He pulled Carry on Wayward Son to watch between the tag transfer and financing paperwork.😆😁

[@staceysmith8173]

That is too funny. You should go back next week and see if he completed his :homework" assignment 😂😂😂

[@michelejones4844]

So happy to see you getting into Voiceplay, they are an amazingly talented a capella group. You can pick any of theirs songs and not go wrong. I would definitely recommend their "Queen in 5 Min" "Boybands in 5 Min" and their "Little Mermaid Medley ft Rachel Potter " if you dont mind Disney

[@EnricoMarangonJunior]

Dudes, man... Niiiice. Yoooooo duuuude...low...LOW. LOWWWWGRRRR. Yoooo. this is Low. And they Supergroup each other. This is Celestial. Dudes.

[@Aurora-cv5to]

Thanks for covering it - I'm totally addicted to VoicePlay. They don't really HAVE a lead singer - different people sing lead in different songs. Geoff (bass) or Layne (beatbox and baritone) do 99% of their arrangements, and they pass things around depending on the needs of the song. Recently it seems like Layne's arrangements have been pushing more time to Geoff: that could be a function of the changing singers in the group over the last year, but more likely it's a response to Geoff's fans, which are increasingly fanatic as his private channel becomes more and more popular. Or maybe I'm crazy, and it's not really happening at all.... Hard to look at a group like this and dig out trends from 5 or 6 songs.

[@paulastephens2640]

If you like Geoff Castellucci's low notes listen to his cover of Tennessee Ernie Ford's 16 Tons. You'll get an idea of his range (he can go higher). It's all Geoff not VP. But amazing nonetheless the less. I love it.

[@Wildecat10]

You should brush up on your mythology, then react to Queen in 5 Minutes. Each - including Layne the vocal percussionist - get their own solos. And it really shows off their theatrical style.

[@alexwalker8440]

These guys are seriously awesome! And they get better and better with each new video! But you should really do the pre-quell to this one, "Trapped - Billie Eilish in 3 minutes" it will blow you mind! Great reaction!

[@shaharfrechtman8663]

Got to know your channel thanks to your Voiceplay reactions and subscribed cause you guys are awsome! Also, for insane highs and lows react to their "Queen in 5 minutes". As a die hard Queen fan I had a hard time bringing myself to listen to that but once I did it became one of my favorites

[@miapendragon5240]

I love them so much, they have another medley of Billie Eilish which is a prequel of the story in this one, I highly recommend it. If you wanna see more of Geoff's incredible range react to the Oogie Boogie Song, Daddy Sang Bass, Warriors, The Little Mermaid Medley, Bang!, My Mother Told Me and If I Were a Rich Man/Girl, also you should check out his solo work, which I recommend his latest cover to Misty Mountains. Earl (high tenor/big guy with beard) is one of the original members who left VoicePlay last year, if you wanna see more of his range I'd say Queen in 5 minutes, Daddy Sang Bass, Boy Bands in 5 minutes and the Moana Medley.

[@terib470]

They are The Trifecta of A Cappella!

[@NicholasAHart]

I can't wait for the Explosive content of Voiceplay.. Y'all make me laugh, great video.... Take Care & God Bless.

[@Gavimaster]

Geoff - Bass Eli - Bald Guy Earl - Beard guy Layne - Beatboxer J. None - Black Guy

[@cybergeek11235]

(this was their lineup for quite a while, but then Earl left and then J went to the navy and then Caesar joined)

[@elizabethhostetter1946]

heh - J to me was 'pigtail guy' . . . ;)

[@christineschutten248]

From what I read by other fans, Geoff, Layne and Earl grew up together and worked at various amusement parks as entertainers. They had a lot of practice developing their theatrical skills.

[@christianschmid1440]

If there was a music-shonen-anime, there would be one Voiceplay-member-endboss per season.

[@ericturner7824]

I think, Voiceplay records and mixes ALL the parts seperately, mixes them, then the music video comes last, WHY IT SOUNDS SO GOOD!

[@christinestromberg4057]

There is a prequel to this which is a Billie Eilish cover: Trapped. It makes sense of the key around Geoff's neck. And why they're in this situation. Another dramatic medley of songs is Queen in 5 Minutes. Yes Geoff is Mr Shock and Awe. Voiceplay always have multi talented singers, they took a whole year to replace Tony Wakim with J.None, but when he left they already knew Ceaar de la Rosa and he is now a full member of the group having met their rather strict requirements.

[@kerryburbank6180]

They are an awesome group, they were on a TV show that only had Acapella groups on it

[@jackyfriedman1963]

Just want to let you know that Trapped by Voiceplay is prequel to this. Watch it to get a sense of how they got in this position. It's a mashup of Billie Eilash songs.

[@307Reacts]

Ooh! Great info! It’s on the list! 👍🏼

[@ronsbrat525]

@@307Reacts Cool. And love Pappy Ds intro. Very cool. Good job

[@sunshineinspring]

I think an important point is, that in most of their medleys they don´t just piece some songs together. They pick out the parts of the songs they need to tell a whole new story.

[@LongfellowDeeds]

ye guys should react to Geoff singing country roads

[@Gavimaster]

yeah! totally

@@Gavimaster it's so good I've watched it too many times to name hahaha

[@lovepanic2738]

Songs included in part 1: "Victorious", "Emperor's New Clothes", "Miss Jackson", "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" and "The Ballad of Mona Lisa". Songs from part 2: "This is Gospel", "High Hopes", "Say Amen" and "Victorious". Here are some concert videos of Panic! at The Disco doing these songs so that you (or anyone who sees this) can hear and see the band. All of them were professionally filmed at Rock in Rio in 2019 which was Panic!'s last performance before the world shut down. (except 1 which I noted that was filmed at the O2 in London earlier in 2019) The band is Brendon Urie (Singer, piano, guitar, drums) with Dan Pawlovich (drummer), Nicole Row (bassist), Mike Naran (guitarist). There is also Kiara, Desiree and Leah on strings and Jesse, Erm and Chris on horns. Technically Panic! is officially just Brendon for the last 2 albums but hopefully on the next album he will use Nicole, Dan and Mike also for the creating of the music. Victorious: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKSreYifo6qppas Emperors New Clothes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqmtYqSYoZd0hNU Miss Jackson: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXnbpXd5eNhqgJY Live at the O2 in London in 2019 and includes a drum duet and a back flip. I Write Sins Not Tragedies: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqbZgIqVjciKopY The Ballad of Mona Lisa: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGfKmoyGjMyqmLc This is Gospel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKmqp4GAi86Ejs0 With a guitar, bass and drum jam at the end of the song. High Hopes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmWnqGWOermYhrM Say Amen (Saturday Night): kzbin.info/www/bejne/q52xnp2IZa-VjZo Since you don't know the music too much this is what albums the songs are from: I Write Sins is from album #1, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out The Ballad of Mona Lisa is from album #3, Vices & Virtues Miss Jackson and This is Gospel are from album #4, Too Weird to Live Too Rare to Die Victorious and Emperors New Clothes are from album #5, Death of a Bachelor High Hopes and Say Amen (Saturday Night) are from album #6, Pray for the Wicked. I hope you guys and others will check out the live videos to get a real sense of how good Panic! is.

[@AndieO]

Ok... beatbox (white shirt, black tie, leather jacket) is Layne. Bald guy is Eli (pronounced EL-Lee) is their baritone, who generally sings tenor, but has been known to hold the bass if Geoff is on lead. Dude with the beard, white shirt black vest. Singing tenor/falsetto, is Earl. He left the group a couple of years ago. The other baritone, also in a white shirt and black vest, black gentleman, is J None, sadly left the group recently joined the military. Last one. Geoff. Their bass. Nuff said. Recently Cesar joined the group as a full time member. And they often rotate in other feature artists. Their newest video (if I was a rich man/girl) will boggle your mind. If you want to see some mind bending vocals, check out their Little Mermaid Medley and their benefit song Sing.

[@susanbradley5685]

That LATE high note was from J None, the baritone!! Now, go to their Billie Eilish for the prequel, to see how the got in that predicament.

[@PiscesintheRain]

That super-high note? The one they were amazed by? That was 100% Earl. J.None has a very different timbre on his upper register. Don't mistake me, he's got an amazing upper extension (Thinkin' 'Bout You shows this off beautifully). But that laser-like sound? That was Earl.

[@susanbradley5685]

@@PiscesintheRain nope. Look at 11:59. That's J None. Earl sets it up and J finishes the line. He has the chops.

[@devil-sc8fu]

@@susanbradley5685 its clearly j none lol, the timbre sounds exactly like j none and you can hear the different between earl and j none

[@lisahuff818]

@@devil-sc8fu I agree completely. If you listen closely Earl is the higher but J None is belting his note hard as well.

[@PiscesintheRain]

@@susanbradley5685 You know, I have probably watched that video an unhealthy number of times, LOL. But, just to be sure, I went and rewatched it (let's be real - any excuse to rewatch VoicePlay is a good excuse). And having just watched it with my good headphones, I will say that it really sounds to me like Earl's falsetto. But honestly, the only way to know for sure would be to get it from the horse's mouth, as it were, and I did not see any comments from them regarding this note below the video, nor have I heard anything in any of the interviews I've watched of them. So ((shrug)). Either way, this was a killer medley, and I'm so glad they decided to react to it.

[@CaseyCassidy]

If you want to refresh your memory, and see more information like who arranged that specific video, it's all the description

[@june4976]

Jeff Castellucci is the Bass. Eli Jacobson is the bald guy; a tenor with a deep baritone range. Layne Stein is the Beatboxer. J None is the baritone; he left the group for the military. Earl is the high tenor; he has left the group last year and was replaced by Cesar de la Rosa a few weeks ago.

[@billiemaize6919]

Hi from Denver. I Have really been enjoying your Voice Play reactions (as well as PTX and Home Free) but if you’d like to hear one that just shows sheer vocal prowess without all the theatrics please react to their “ Tennessee Whiskey.” It is simply gorgeous harmonies start to finish! Keep up the great work! 💞

[@staceysmith8173]

You guys are doing alot of reactions from lots of groups so it's hard to keep them all straight.
