Geoff Castellucci - JACK'S LAMENT | Singer Reacts |

[@alexthorpe6583]

Geoff really is a rare talent. He often accompanies himself on these songs, and the costumes and creativity are off the chain. He's done 'Monster Mash', 'Ghost Riders in the Sky', and with VoicePlay, he's done 'Oogie Boogie's song', 'This Is Halloween', and lots more. Including a new one, 'Hellfire' from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

[@danielstephens1185]

Hellfire was so unnerving, it was incredible!

[@craigmccuistian]

His “Blackbird” and “16 Tons” are amazing!

[@kathrynmenzel2615]

He is incredibly talented and has a 5 octave range. His a cappella group, Voiceplay, is every bit as good. They are spectacular.

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

Technically its a 6 octave range that we have seen in videos so far, it may actually be larger…

[@MerricMaker]

It's not talent. It's called "work."

[@kathrynmenzel2615]

@@MerricMaker In Geoff’s case I think it’s a ton of both.

[@huldradraco]

@@ConnorSinclairCavin definitely not 6 octaves. he's just barely above 5 octaves.

[@griffin8er845]

@@ConnorSinclairCavin its 5 octaves. He has from B0 to around E5/F5 which is a bit over 4.5 octaves. On a good day, he can sing down to Bb0 or up to G5 which is almost the full 5 octaves. Still very impressive.

[@Robert.Sheard]

If this sends you down the Geoff and VoicePlay rabbit holes, I'll be here for it. Loved it.

[@b.buster.]

You have stepped into a very deep rabbit hole with Geoff and Voiceplay. Buckle-up!!

[@Wandererdown]

Great Reaction! I would recommend the a cappella band he's a part of "Voiceplay". Not only is their talent top notch, their musical arrangement is out of this world.

[@DarrellW_UK]

There’s no one else like Geoff is there? His vocal range is sick, so low up to tenor pitches crazy! Enjoyed your reaction and analysis, it was fun to see your face when he hit that huge low! 🌹

[@dawson2134]

Tim Foust is another bass singer with crazy range. Love them both!

[@chuckelf3373]

Also possible: Avi Kaplan. But I like Castellucci's style better than the others, to be honest.

[@DanAngie]

@@dawson2134 Tim Foust has a very wide range and can sing... But Geoff is a better singer and has a better voice. I love both

[@leechowning2712]

That first line... I honestly think Geoff could put on a business card and be completely justified. "There are few who could deny that what I do, I do the best..." Yes, Geoff, we know. Oh do we know. Listen to his cover of Elvis Presleys Way Down, seriously you will enjoy it.

[@dawnemami3089]

I totally agree ❤ it sounds like he is describing himself 😂🎉

[@jamescurfman3284]

For a long time, Geoff practiced as a tenor. He's REALLY good. Jack's ghost-dog is called 'Zero'. :)

[@barbarakennedy2667]

You cannot go wrong with any of Geoff's works. He also has done some narration of a few stories like The Raven, and others that are apporpriate for this Spooky Season. You will discover that he has full mastery of a full five octaves. He is best known for his bass voice but can delight in higher registers as well.

[@jonadabtheunsightly]

Unfortunately, he still hasn't recorded Fall of the House of Usher. :-(

[@timothy5682]

I love watching people react to him. It's interesting watching them witness first hand his vast vocals range.

[@matthewhart197]

I would definitely recommend that you look into the A Cappella group Geoff's in, Voiceplay! It's just such an amazing collection of talent (and you get to hear some more of his low notes, which is always a bonus!). They just released Hellfire a little while ago, and it's absolutely stunning!

[@AudioVile]

I loved your reaction! Looking at your page, this is the first time you have reacted to Geoff? If so, PLEASE consider doing more of both Geoff AND his group Voice Play. You will be spellbound. I promise. I first listened to you with a few of your Ren reactions. I am pleased to see you in this FAR different genre! Best of luck!

[@Broomrider1492]

Geoff is amazing and watching Geoff and Kathy put this set together in the BTS video was so fun. Geoff really likes Spooky Season. Most of this set came from Geoff and Kathy's home decor. Geoff did go buy that pumpkin stack on the far left, more headstones, pumpkins, and graveyard fencing along with a couple spooky trees and that moon. They filled in the rest of the things that Patty Cake Productions had on hand. Kathy did his costuming and Mr. makeup magic Rick Underwood made Geoff Jack. Geoff is a founding member of VoicePlay and they will be on stage singing with Chicago on November 17 &18 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Can't wait to see that. Just google Chicago & Friends. Now you need to dive into VoicePlay and This Is Halloween, Oogie Boogies Song.

[@Denalicat]

She been Geoff'd

[@Traci2000]

Great reaction! That was fun! Geoff just knocked this out of the park. I love Nightmare Before Christmas so I got super excited when I heard he was doing this. He did not disappoint, either! ❤

[@MorningRose370]

I found Geoff and Voiceplay on KZbin about a month ago. Their first song I heard was "Wellerman" and when I first heard Geoff I nearly jumped out of my skin. Wasn't expecting that solid bass!

[@richardfranz3180]

Usually Geoff doesn't scare anyone out of their pants. I've seen reactors get so hot watching him that they voluntarily start shedding clothes, lol.

[@ablevablev604]

you should react to his cover of " i see fire" . It´s incredible.

[@ilonadever8249]

Enjoyed your reaction, loved the enthusiasm. I wish you had let your viewers see the entire video. I know it helps the artist's algorithms with KZbin if it plays to the end. He wanted to end it on a hopeful note that was not incuded in the original song, that's why he showed Jack discovering snow in the outro. Subscribed in anticipation of more Geoff and Voiceplay. They recently dropped Hellfire from Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame, it is mesmerizing!

[@sanditabonita7117]

Such an enjoyable reaction. He's also in an acapella group called Voiceplay and both the group and his solo work come out with Halloween songs every year. There are a lot of Nightmare Before Christmas ones. :)

[@janeteitsworth8824]

Great Reaction to my favorite bass singer

[@sarahereach]

Enter all the Castellunatics to welcome you to the fandom! I completely agree that Bass singers are deeply under appreciated especially in popular music. I also love how you noticed and appreciated Geoff's whole range, he mentioned in one of the Patreon Livestreams that not too many people are catching/mentioning that high C in his "scream like I can" line. Anyway, hope you check out more of Geoff's work, including Voiceplay, the Acapella group he sings and arranges with.

[@traceyandrob13]

welcome to the rabbit Hole Geoff is also in a acapella group called VoicePlay which have a few members over the years They drop Hellfire from the Disney Hunch Back Of Notre Dame. They done lots on both channel.

[@varunk.t8235]

More Geoff reactions please

[@hollyryalsgrubb1273]

And he does the arrangements and direction and musical accompaniment too. Such a prodigious talent.

[@adamh211]

I don't know if I've ever seen or witnessed the exact moment someone actually fell in love before... but I def saw It in this reaction. Her face was 💯 percent amazing.

[@beakychugger1109]

You should definitely watch Valhalla Calling'and Hellfire by his group Voiceplay. And I see fire by Geoff himself

[@daletimberlake8109]

Great reaction!! Subscribed!! Looking forward to seeing your reactions to his group Voiceplay. HELLFIRE, Valhalla Calling, Seven Nation Army, Creep, Nothing Else Matters. Enjoy!!

[@catalystguitarguy]

As one of those low basses I appreciate the love. Also Geoff rocks.

[@lkayh]

Great reaction!! It’s great to see someone who knows just how rare and wonderful it is to find a singer, let alone a bass, who has done the work to develop such a rich, silky timbre. I hope you explore the rest of his catalogue-lots of treasures to find-as well as his group, Voiceplay. Also, if you love bass singers, I hope you check out: Avi Kaplan (former bass of Pentatonix, often regarded as a legend among young bass singers), The Bass Gang and its members, Marwan Ayman, Peter Barber, Tomi P, and Bobby Bass. Also Jonathan Young if you’re into metal, and Colm McGuinness, and Elliott Robinson (he has a wonderful original Grinch piece, which might be a great song to visit this Christmas). I look forward to more reactions!

[@Cordelia53]

I love Nightmare before Christmas, and this song always made me tear up, But Geoff Has made this song truly come to life and givin it a more melancholy feel. And this song definitely needed a low bass cover. I definitely felt the sadness and loneliness of this song. So amazing!! Great reaction!! Geoff is part of the acapella group voiceplay who also recently released Hellfire from The Hunchback of Notre dame. Subbed for more Geoff and hopefully VoicePlay. By the way...Geoff does all the vocals in his videos. He is amazing at harmonizing with himself, and in alot of his videos, you will see 4 of himself. They even have names...lol, and Kathy his wife helps him out alot with the videos. That range is awesome as well...5 octaves from in the low bass to high tenor....absolutely amazing

[@bjspeck4337]

Geoff did this emotional piece so beautifully. Consider checking out VoicePlay's Hellfire. Geoff does the lead in this one.

[@ronsbrat525]

You'd be extremely surprised how many people love the bass singers and have huge reactions to their low notes. Geoff has over 600k subscribers on KZbin and close to a million on his Patreon. I watch a ton of reactors and every one of them have reactions to his low notes. Personally. I love his voice as a whole. It's so beautiful. High, low and in between. It doesn't affect me like most people. As a previous choir singer I'm used to the different ranges and love them all. Geoff is the very first Patreon I ever joined. His group Voiceplay was the second and Pattycake Productions was the third. I love being on all their Patreons. Pattycake is where Geoff and Voiceplay film most of their videos. It is owned by Layne Stein beatboxer of Voiceplay and former member Tony Wakim. They have a ton of original Disney related awesome live videos. Two of their best Halloween videos.... Bump In The Night. Villains Haunted Mansion.

[@jonadabtheunsightly]

I did encounter one (1) reactor who said that he thinks Geoff's use of super low bass notes is "excessive" and "unnecessary". So that opinion _is_ out there.

[@ronsbrat525]

@@jonadabtheunsightly Yeah. Me too. But that's only one out of hundreds that are on here 😉

[@jonadabtheunsightly]

@@ronsbrat525 It does seem to be a minority opinion, yes.

[@janetdw]

@@jonadabtheunsightly I’ve also heard a reactor complained that withOogie Boogie, there were other people singing and it was a solo piece🤯. And I’ve heard one person complain because the guitar was missing😳! Everyone’s entitled to their opinion, but some people really are overly picky. I just finished watching a reaction who’s channel I will not return to because they complained because it was different from the original. Imagine that! A cover that was not a carbon copy! What is the world coming to?

[@jonadabtheunsightly]

@@janetdw Yes, one of the things about living in a free-speech society, is that people have the right to be wrong. This is necessary, because we don't want to establish an organization with the political power to decide whose opinions are wrong and therefore illegal, because such power would certainly be abused. So in order to protect ourselves from Orwellian nightmares, we have to accept that people are going to say stuff that's obviously wrong, and we have to be ok with that. xkcd 386 applies.

[@marshayoung9387]

If you want to hear more of Geoff's greatness you must please do a reaction video of Voice Plays new cover song..( Hell Fire. ) Geoff is the main vocalist in the song.

[@Pretzils1031]

As a bass-baritone myself, Geoff is something special. I can get down to an E2, but not the way he can. When he does it it not even a note anymore, it’s like an earthquake. I’m still fairly young, so I can only hope that as my voice matures and I continue to learn how to use my low vocals, that I can one day compare to Geoff.

[@christineschutten248]

Geoff is the best!😊 He has a five octave range and sounds fantastic in every one of them!

[@DravenGal]

You aren't the first reactor to note that "pants" line...but you ARE the first reactor to give voice to what almost all his female (and probably some male) viewers think about it! Subtly though, well done. Why do I get the feeling his wife, Kathy, has paroxysms of laughter whenever she hears him sing that line?

[@whitevader007]

I was glad I found Geoff on youtube. I lost my voice when I was 13 years. There was a strange crackling singing voice. After around 4 decades silence I found out I had a bass voice + sometimes I could sing the deep rumbling notes of Geoff. Thank you Geoff for your voice!

[@andrewmarin983]

3:25 This part is always my favorite part of every reaction to the same song on every channel. Just that moment, when people reacted to this part of this music video.

[@reactsbybright1]

I also had fun reacting to this amazing piece as well❤

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

The sheer, unfiltered joy on your face is one of the most beautiful things i have seen in a while. I hope you can keep enjoying such bliss from these performances

Geoff Castellucci is the hollween King!!

[@joeysmith5086]

I have been watching reactions to Goeff Castelucci and Voiceplay for quite some time now, I consider it a very enjoyable experience and pastime lol. This is by far one of my favorite reactions to this version of the song.

[@stuarth317]

I'd recommend reacting to Geoff's version of I See Fire (originally by Ed Sheeran). Not only a great song, but it also showcases Geoff's range and talent. For Voiceplay, the acapella group he sings with, they do amazing covers of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica and We Don't Talk About Bruno from Encanto among many others.

[@ketomom4637]

He’s a true basso profundo! Endless talent and so easy on the eyes! ❤️

[@christinestromberg4057]

It has to be said that there is a place now for a voice like this, after all those boy bands we've been used to for so long. It's a much more mature sound, let's face it. You're not alone. The number of supporters and patreon members he has proves that many many people love him. I could suggest that you get yur mind out of the gutter LOL I don't think those words were meant to be suggstive of anything but haunting. But I could be wrong. :)

[@rmdewberry2482]

Me, too! The lows are where it's at. Can we get a bass lead on the radio? Can we get a bass Disney hero? My body is ready. Geoff and VoicePlay are my fave music channels on KZbin. The creativity is *chef's kiss*!

[@Shadow_Person11]

Congratulations on discovering the wonderful world of Geoff!! There's so much more to discover, including, as many have mentioned, the group Voiceplay! You will find so much to enjoy!

[@tomzawacki8906]

I truly enjoyed your review, good job! Thank You.

[@ashbrea381]

The look on your face when he switched to his upper register said it all! Geoff is a force of nature, for sure!

[@davidstokes1308]

Geoff is exactly what you see. If memory serves the only assistance with his voice is his mic being adjusted for the sub harmonic notes he does.

[@Chrissnox]

Most artists have a house where their voice live, sometimes they dip down to the basement or up to the attic but mostly swing around the living area. Geoff has a house, with a basement, sub basement, upper floor, and an attic 😅 he is incredible

[@ARMfanat1]

Отличная реакция 😂❤

I've been listening to him for a couple of years

[@kelleyoneal2578]

He's not human! Neither is Layne. Have you seen "Seven Nation Army"?

[@MikeinUt]

I really enjoyed your reactions to Geoff. If this is your first time with Geoff and VoicePlay you are going to have a blast with his voice.

[@indus3270]

Geoff has so many faces! His soulful face is my favourite, because it produced his rendition of "Ain't no sunshine", which is, in my humble opinion, one of the very best covers of any song ever. If you've not seen it, react to it!

[@boefjespost]

😂😂😂❤ I don't think I've ever laughed so hard watching someone react to a video😊. Your enthusiasm, energy and enjoyment of this masterpiece is very infectious. Thanks for this wonderful reaction 😊😊👍🏻😁😁❣️

[@Robert_Herring]

Wonderful reaction, Rachel. Geoff is an amazing vocalist, sounding great over his 5 octave range. One of my favorites is a fairly early one, his cover of "Blackbird" by the Beatles. For the spooky season, he also has some spoken word stuff such as "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe. Perfect voice for Poe.

[@zarasha8220]

[@reneleroux7669]

Another video just came out with him and the group he's in (VoicePlay). He's basically the lead in this one called "Hell Fire"; a cover from the Hunch Back of Notre Dame. He's great in that one too.

Since you like bass voices, try Home Free's cover of Ring of Fire featuring Avi Kaplan. You get two for one!!!

[@SebastianBohn]

Eargasm accomplished, Rachel happy. This was fun to watch. 😅 Suggest continuing with “Sixteen Tons” or “Ghost Riders in the Sky”.

[@FriedBob]

Honestly, I am not sure what ismore impressive and more insane... Geoff's range (something like 5 octaves?) or how easily he can switch between extremes.

[@The_Nightsong]

I started watching the cover as a virgin, but by the end I was suddenly pregnant 😆

[@danielstephens1185]

You should also try Hellfire, with his group VoicePlay. The original song is undeniably uncomfortable. It's supposed to be. This cover however is on another level. It's actually threatening in a way the original isn't! So well done!

[@michaelkimberling7307]

Being able to sing that low is actually pretty rare let alone well.

[@timgray3790]

You should check out his “I see fire”. Heck anything he does. For voiceplay anything but hoist the colors is a great start

[@itchydragon]

Wow this is great. Dude can hit those low notes. There is an entire cover album for Nightmare Before Christmas called "Nightmare Revisited". You should check it out if you're a NBC fan.

[@hannahanderson6006]

This is my favorite song ever ❤❤

[@Mountainside101]

Ooo good set….😂

[@MrGalthion]

You were right - your "discoveries" were obvious! lol As others have pointed out, he has a lot of solo work as well as his work with Voiceplay. They have been running approximately one new song per month.

You definitely need to check out more of his solo stuff from his channel but you also have to check out his acapella group called "Voiceplay"!! Voiceplay has a tom of amazing videos and their most recent which is think you'll love is their cover of "Hellfire" from "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"

First comment, great reaction dear friend. Would you be down for a collaboration?

[@DamnedEyez]

There are a few compilation videos of women..."finding religion" listening to Jeff (and Tim Foust)...so Low definitely has an audience. I quite like his take on Oogie Boogie's song. The Home Free ft. Oak Ridge Boys version of Elvira (country song...no relation to the Mistress of the Dark) even has a bit of the old vs new low competition.

[@andrewweller5119]

were you sitting on the bass speaker when watching this? by the sounds of the squeaks you might of been 🤣🤣🤣
