The families coming in is so freakin cute! Geoff's face when he sees his baby hurts my heart in a good way.

Daddy Sang Bass is the most accurate way to describe Geoff in every song

[@kortneydavis7091]

I love the look that Geoff gives Earl when he hits the high note at 1:34 that look is totally one of "where the heck did that come from?"

I feel like this is the kind of song Geoff always wants to sing. His vocal control is just so strong that he accesses those low register notes flawlessly. That song was definitely a song where it was more "Geoff and the others" than it was "Voiceplay" because everyone was solid but that was ALL about Geoff

[@voldymodert5592]

Is there anything wrong with that?

Ok all of these comments are talking about Geoff, but at 1:34 ? Damn, Earl!!!

[@JAEratt13]

It's SO GOOD! I'm as big a Geoff fanboy as I can be but Earl's part there was the highlight of the vid. I keep rewinding to hear it again.

[@couchsamurai]

Geoff is freaking amazing at barytone but Earl is just as amazing at tenor!!!!!

[@shirleykarr560]

Just discovered this awesome group a few weeks ago and have been enjoying all their videos, especially Geoff's solo stuff. I thought his reaction beginning at 1:54 here told me all I need to know about him as a human being ... and then I saw the "Baby Lucci - Our IVF Journey" video. My husband and I had been married 20 years before we were able to get pregnant. My son is 10 years older than William. When Geoff and Kathy get the call that they're finally pregnant, I cried with them. Knowing what they went through for him to be Daddy singing Bass, I may have teared up when watching this one again. Going by video release dates, it looks like Geoff started skipping haircuts during Kathy's last trimester. Love the long hair. Two months ago, I didn't know I liked a capella music. Now I'm a huge fan of Voiceplay and Geoff (I'm all about that bass).

[@rougemochi429]

1:34 even he looked surprized that he went that high lmao

[@d-elitebeatz858]

😂 right

[@koltenkirk7408]

If you can sing the other ones you can sing the last one as well. It’s just subharmonic. You could do it with practice. Watch David Larson subharmonic if you need to learn how.

Not to be like "I have parental issues" but that part where all their families come out genuinely makes me cry. Putting in my request to be adopted by literally any of them oh my god ;O; Also this was just such a beautiful song, Earl's high note and the looks he and Geoff gave each other after were amazing. Everyone harmonized beautifully (as always), Geoff's low notes are so soothing, and I always forget Layne isn't a drum set

[@hercshaw]

I agree to all of that especially the drum set part

[@Jigaboo123456]

Terrific singing, but the bit that surprised me was when at 2:15, when being passed to another adult, the wee blond baby smiled in delight. Now I relly understand the phrase "an infectious smile," because to my surprise and delight, it instantly and instinctively triggered a mile-wide smile in me. It must have been a flash-back to a memory of when my own, now grown kids, lit up my life, and their mums, with a sudden smile. :-)

And Daddy sang bass, Mamma sang tenor, Me and little brother would join right in there Singin' seems to soothe a troubled soul One day soon, and it won't be long, I'll rejoin them with a song. Well I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne! No the circle won't be broke By and by Lord, by and by And Daddy sang bass, Mamma sang tenor, Me and little brother would join right in there In the sky, Lord, in the sky And we were singin' (Singin') Singin' (Singin') Singin' in harmony (And we were singin') Singin' (Singin') Singin' (Singin' in harmony!) Well I remember after work, Mamma would call in all of us Well you could hear us singin' for a country mile! Now little brother's done gone on, But I'll rejoin him with a song We'll be singin' again up yonder in a little while! And Daddy sang bass, Mamma sang tenor, Me and little brother would join right in there Singin' seems to soothe a troubled soul One day soon, and it won't be long, I'll rejoin them with a song. Well I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne Oh the circle won't be broken, By and by Lord, by and by.
