The first time I saw/heard him was on a video with voiceplay titled Bang. There's something so drawing to his voice. I loved it & have followed him ever since, tho I just subscribed to him today. So looking forward to the DJ rabbit hole of music. I wonder what the chances are of another collab with VP IN the works❤😊😂

[@WhoIzDeejayYoung]

you’re very kind! I’m super humbled. thanks so much ☺️💯

[@sudelaine8653]

For those who don't know. DeeJay has also done Man in the Mirror (my personal favorite) and Christmas Don't Delay (the very end of which is breathtaking!) with VoicePlay. Check 'em out.

[@user-tc2lj1lu7m]

My only suggestion for the pianist is to make them wait a beat for that high note after you tickle the ivory and especially at the end of the song don't forget that last high note. Leaving it out at the end is like a n endless dramatic pause.
