GEOFF CASTELLUCCI - Jack's Lament | Vocal Coach Reaction (& Analysis) | Jennifer Glatzhofer

[@alanmacvean2053]

I just watched Mr. Barber's analysis of this song , now Ms. Glatzhofer , a truly magical Saturday morning !

[@Broomrider1492]

Peter Barber didn't have the finished video so no Zero.

[@hwyla4416]

Same here! I love to get them one after the other!

[@barbarakennedy2667]

As did I.

[@Traci2000]

​@@Broomrider1492I didn't even notice that! I was so caught up in his, "Oh my God! I'm offended." 😂😂

[@daletimberlake8109]

Yep....me too!!

[@joshnoe5523]

8:38 Did we just hear Jen hitting a sub-harmonic? I think we did! Great reaction and analysis as always!

[@DravenGal]

@@charlesoines3538Would anyone complain about being possessed by Geoff? First thing they'd do is sign up for a talent tv show!

[@christineschutten248]

I swear I thought I heard it!!

[@niclasvestman]

😂 Yup, that was a subharmonic slipping out @8:39. And a quite clean one at that. Well done Ms. Glatzhofer 😅👍

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

😱😱

[@Matthewrents]

It’s. Crazy. She just plays with it and is fully figuring it out. Jen it’s clear you know HOW it works and you surprise yourself every time when you’re able to get it 😂

[@alexwalker8440]

Geoff said this was a challenge for his vocal as well as acting skills. And again, he totally nailed it! He's constantly working on his voice, and keeps getting better and better! Will never stop to amaze me. 🔥💖🤯 Thanks for another very entertaining reaction, Jen! 😍

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Oh love it! Thank you😁

[@johnbattles1002]

@@JenniferGlatzhofer , fantastic reaction and analysis! Here is a Fun Fact about Geoff, appropriate for the Halloween season-- He really loves the stories and poems of the "master of the macabre" Edgar Allan Poe! Geoff has done several readings of Poe's works, including "The Raven," "The Tell-Tale Heart," and "Annabelle Lee." Probably not material for reactions of a musical vocal coach, but maybe something to, umm....enjoy(?) on a dark and moonless night! Lol! Have a great day!

[@DravenGal]

Good eye on him beckoning for Zero! I didn't catch that until it was pointed out. But that's kinda because I can't stop watching Geoff's face when he's singing. Yes. His face. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

[@ChrisHaar]

I loved the O face when Geoff lands on that E1 sub. 😂

[@WSlopeAggie]

It's very cute lmao

[@creationsbychancecan]

this is one of Geoff's best work. so, so good. His acting has really improved too. Rich does most of Voiceplay's makeup and does a stellar job. Great reaction again Jen.

[@jenniferwalker5980]

Love your reactions and I've been waiting. I loved that you looked so shocked when you came out with that subharmonic. It was a priceless look and it was really a pretty good sub.

[@chih-chaoyang5290]

Your face expression definitely made waking up earlier for this premiere worth it!! 😂I love every minute of it!! Great analysis as always!! You are getting better and better with your subharmonics!!

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Thank youuuuu!

[@indus3270]

What I find most enjoyable about Geoff's renditions is how he's so respectful towards the original piece he's covering. I got the impression (and may well be mistaken) that you've never seen Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas". If so, I recommend you watch it. I promise you'll enjoy! Oh btw, congrats on your first subharmonic! It was surprisingly stable!

[@Illawen]

Aww, I hadn't noticed that he patted his leg to call the dog until you mentioned that. I don't think any reactor I've watched noticed it. Very cute.

[@CapriUni]

This October is the 30th anniversary of _The Nightmare Before Christmas_ BTW. That fact makes me feel old enough. It makes me feel even older when people reacting to this song are too young to remember the original (The Dog's name is Zero, if you didn't know). Speaking of the original, I'm off to watch the clip of "Jack's Lament" from the original now, for comparison's sake.

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Zero! Of course. 😁

[@deanmarion5477]

@@JenniferGlatzhofer: is Geoff teaching you subharmonic? It that widened your vocal range?

[@syranas]

8:38 well done on the subharmonic!! Love the reaction!!

[@christineschutten248]

The jump scare didn't phase her but when Geoff pops up to talk she jumps?!😂

[@AudioVile]

I just KNEW you would both love this performance AND slay the reaction! Great description(s) of how he mesmerizes us with that amazing voice.

[@totoro123]

I love how I just watched Peter's r&a and now yours, you both pointed to almost completely different things! 😊

[@CharronMcLeod]

Another great reaction! Geoff made this so interesting ... barber shop harmonies ... soaring and the depths ... and of course a stunning video to go along with. He has said in interviews that he loves grit in the voice and I think he's definitely been exploring that in his own voice.

[@jt_joethomastv1932]

Whoa !! ... You did it ! Jen with the subharmonic

[@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 Jen as always!!

[@angelin1612]

Greetings Jennifer I love it when you try to replicate the sounds you hear. you almost always do them You have a beautiful voice

[@rmdewberry2482]

Lovely, lovely work from Geoff here! What is Time even doing lately?! NBC is 30 yrs old, Hunchback is almost 30 yrs old, and Wicked is 20 years old. Yet, songs like these are still fascinating, fresh, and classic all at the same time. A credit to the genius works of Elfman, Menken, and Schwartz.

[@Arachnia_Sea]

Adding that I loved your accidental subharmonic and your reactions to this

[@karenzak6627]

Great reaction, Jenn, FINALLY! I've been waiting and waiting for you to post about this amazing Geoff production! And you noticed him call Zero!! Thank you! I haven't heard ANY other reactor mention that.

[@davidh.4649]

Jennifer! Ok straight from Casper's video to Geoff ... I suspect the tone will be a bit lower and darker for this one. LOVE the earrings! Very timely and seasonal! Yikes that eerie piano! Wow ... what ... production! And then you dredge up that low creaky note at 8:40! 😲 Jack's Lament indeed! Spooky, sad ... very theatrical. Awesome reaction and analysis (and crazy low note) Jen! 😊

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Hahaha I know! What happened! Thank you 😁

[@helidomonteiro4084]

always my favorite reactor

[@hwyla4416]

Thanks for commenting on the ‘scream’ harmonies. I knew that was probably my favorite part, but I had no idea what/why.

[@hwyla4416]

Also for pointing out the breathier high part early on (and how different it was from further along). The first part is more ‘ghostly’ (and thanks Peter Barber for pointing that out) but to me it is also more wistful. Really showing us Jack’s ennui.

[@PhoenicisEstuans]

6:24 your face when he suddenly jumps registers when he comes back in XD

[@Traci2000]

Starting my morning off with 2 awesome reactions to this video... It's gonna be a good day, lol. You're really getting pretty good with the low notes now! You hit that! I love that Geoff popping up in the outro box scared you more than the jump scare. 😂😂 Super fun reaction, Jen! And Happy Halloween! 👻🎃😈

[@FLNatureGuy]

What an amazing cover and fun reaction. One of my favorite songs from Geoff. His constant improvement is astounding.

[@sarahborzelli_Castellineicieli]

Go Jen! that sub was neat! Thank you for another great reaction!

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

😱😱 thank you!

[@DravenGal]

LOL! I love that actual Geoff speaking became a jump scare!

[@WaterBug46]

Yay Jen! Was that a subharmonic? Indeed it was!❤

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

😱😱

[@hannahanderson6006]

I could listen to this song forever!!

[@ilonadever8249]

Geoff, being Geoff, wanted a hopeful end to the song which did not exist in the original. I hope you watched through the end. Jack reached for the snow and got the tiniest hint of a smile on his face. We also saw Kathy performing Zero on a green screen in their kitchen.

[@joanneevans2021]

Awesome Jen. Love your reactions and the joy you bring to us. ❤

[@N9TheNoob]

8:38 congrats on your first actual subharmonic !

[@toddreed882]

A pleasure as always.i again have been anxiously awaiting this reaction!

[@paulmoniodis1212]

While the change in registers has its own musical significance, overlooked is the extent to which this suggests a dissociative personality disorder, or what might be called in other contexts, possession. Adds much to the disturbance of the lament.

[@rhov-anion]

Just had my first Halloween party of the season last night, and now I get to unwind today with this lovely breakdown. Wonderful!

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

Oh great, the spirit of Geoff is out here inhabiting reactors… possess them all Geoff! Possess them all!

[@MephiticMiasma]

"I'm scared out of my pants" hmmm.... are we sure "scared" is the right word here?

[@dianneantos480]

Watching your facial reactions added to your vocal reaction!❤️🤗

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Haha thank you😂

[@abeldiaz3877]

Happy Halloween 🎃 Thanks for this reaction

[@scorpionlord9175]

out of all the reactions, your the first person i saw that has noticed that he looked over, tapped his leg and called zero over. its great that im not the only one that noticed that XD

[@iamsquatty]

I love this so much, i petition for this song tomnow be referred to as "Geoffs Lament" 😂 also, are those....pumpkin spice latte earrings.... 😍🤣💜

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Yes😁

[@mrdrak01]

Congrats Jen, that was a E2 subharmonic 8:39 well done 😄

[@FKYOUHACKER]

I'm tryna reach that as a "low" baritone but can only go to D2/D#2 sub lol

[@Jennifer_J_C]

Thanks Jen ... have you been practicing sub-harmonics? 😊

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Hmmm something is happening hahah!

[@karingreen396]

Love this!

[@stephaniebunn4065]

I've watched the video at least 30 times and never caught 'Jack' calling Zero to him!

[@55Christer]

I like your facial expressions during his singing.

[@evman1094]

I never get tired of seeing that look on Jen's face whenever she accidentally slips into her subharmonic register 🤣

[@CivvyPatriot]

The genuine confusion/terror face is priceless 👌 😄

[@deanmarion5477]

Welcome to Jack world

[@aenorist2431]

Yes, he "scared" all the women out of their pants. Suuure.

[@kennethsorrels8850]

Jen, I always enjoy your reactions to both Geoff and VoicePlay. I would like you to react to a fellow Brit who in my opinion has the most beautiful female voice that I have ever heard. She was in Voice Kids, UK in 2018 when she was 14. She is scheduled to star in Chris Broom's production of the musical Rosie, opening in the West End London in Autumn of 2024. Her name is Lucy Thomas and she is from Wigan, England. She has 60 plus videos on her KZbin channel, LucyThomasMusic. I would recommend her cover of Evergreen.

[@christerenzi3351]

Always have a go! :)

[@LofiLotus14s]

Eflat 2 in subharmonic. nice!

[@christinestromberg4057]

A number of reactors have trouble with lament. It doesn't rhyme with payment. Does that help? More like cement. Geoff said he hoped this would make people, happy, and sad, and a bit terrified. :)

[@Quizzy0000]

wow you went very deep there thats impressive at 8:32 was that subharmonic?

[@Pretzils1031]

As a bass-baritone myself, Geoff is something special. I can get down to an C2, 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.

[@ondrejlukas326]

You can most likely get lower with practice even now and definitely with age. I was able to hit an E2 at 12 before puberty and now can get an occasional G#1 with super low morning voice. Good luck on your journey!

[@I_love_cats12223]

Geoffs real face and voice sacred you LoL

[@chitster]

That was your first subharmonic 🎉 and is how Geoff does it so low it's super hard to learn but once you do it's easy to do, but Geoff is king of clear note subharmonics and he gets just that bit lower than anyone else 😅

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

Honestly… if we found out they added the pumpkins because his actual eyes showed as those of an angel, demon, eldritchian horror, or something similar… id just be like “huh… yup, that tracks” lol

[@wowguy1243]

the eyes are Geoff slowly shedding his mortal skin

[@ronprince1478]

😊👍😎

[@williamcapp448]

You can no longer conceal your true vocal range.

[@andrewlyles3628]

8:38 H-how? I’m a bass(maybe?) and I still can’t do that.😭 How does one do it?

[@DravenGal]

Just curious...does anyone else get David Bowie as The Goblin King vibes from Geoff's awesome outfit?

[@lisahuff818]

YES!

Please check out "Wonder As I Wander - Epic Version" by Simon Khorolskiy. Its around that time of year and I think you'll really love it.

[@maloxi1472]

8:38 Did you... Did you just belch out an E2 subharmonic and brush it off like it was nothing ? You've officially become worthy of appearing in one of those "lowest female singers" video 😂

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

😂😂 I don’t know what happened hahah

[@Rembrant65]

Danny freaking Elfman.

[@steby123]

I get a kick out of non-basses trying to emulated His tones on pitch,, not to be sexist; very few humans can cover Geoff on pitch regardless of gender !!!!

I'm sorry, Jen, I didn't see the "spice" labels and I thought they were popcorn tubs!😳

[@ChristopherPrice24]

Who else noticed that when he played the piano intro the bass notes werent ringing out? Those keys were dead.

[@kingscrub3386]

Jen just hit a bass note guys

[@FKYOUHACKER]

E2 subharmonic is more tenor or higher but i guess some basses can hit it so you're technically not wrong

[@paulosergioalmeida1000]

do a reaction to i have noting (Whitney Houston) and i don't want to miss a thing (Aerosmith) with Gabriel Henrique on the cover

I like Tyson Ritter’s cover ALOT more, he sounds and acts exactly like I imagined live action Jack.

[@leeChMSI]

i've been on a jennifer video spree but my keyboard is begging me to lay off the right arrow key...stop pausing so damn much....and i say this as someone expecting pauses...you're watching a music video...a pause here and there is fine...annoying but fine...but when the song goes less than a sentence, your overdoing it...remember your thoughts and bring them all to a single spot...
