Golden Hour - VoicePlay ft. Anthony Gargiula (acapella)

[@AnthonyGargiula]

it was an honor to sing with you guys. i grew up on these videos, so this is such a full circle moment for me!! thank you :)

[@tari6085]

You did such a good job!

[@maeco7]

You sounded fabulous!! This was a long-awaited collab and it did not disappoint ❤️ Hope you get to sing with them again sometime soon!

[@sarahborzelli_Castellineicieli]

you absolutely rock in this one!

[@atomknight8361]

you have an amazing voice

[@deanmarion5477]

Love your voice and fits Voiceplay criteria, hopefully that you join them permanently.

[@KathrynCastellucci]

This only shows me creating prototype #1. You can safely assume my next projects were numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5. And they all turned out perfect 💙

[@karenponchak5304]

Geoff is definitely a prototype. We're quite sure that mold broke when he was made. 😂

[@sarahborzelli_Castellineicieli]

lol! when will we get to see the perfect ones?

[@Debs_Badger]

Well done keeping Geoff's head from getting too swollen. 😂

[@veronicathunander4579]

Thank you for reassuring us, Kathy! I’m so relieved!

[@rulab]

So, did you create the clones then @Kathryn Castellucci? That makes sense...

[@igna.mortier]

Love seeing Geoff's wife collaborating with his art, this is so beautiful

[@jesse2535]

She used to sing with him in their shows in opera but she lost her hearing and had to stop. They have a video on his channel on the topic, it is super cute to watch them but also sad to hear she lost her ability to hear properly.

[@Gretchen_G]

Kathy and Geoff are just too adorable for words! 🥰

[@mrs.darkzeraora1346]

The ending was adorable the way Kathy and Geoff smiled at each other.

[@Artlesssociety1]

Been having so much fun looking through all the reactions to this, especially to 2:26

[@DravenGal]

Voiceplay is like watching an expert glassblower at work. The different shapes of their voices, swirling, flowing together, each one standing out yet still part of a whole of sheer artistry.

[@Dodl1]

Wow, that is a very good comparison 😮❤

[@tonifinley4872]

I love this analogy!

[@karinwolf9639]

And staying cristall clear all the time...

[@Mina_chan223]

Well said! 👏❤

[@faithhesteredna]

And aren’t we just the luckiest to have them all together to please our ears, brains and souls.

[@MorgannaJade]

The harmony is mind blowing in this song.

[@Jamie_T.]

Phew, thank heaven's she choose Geoff - I was worried there for a minute! 😂 Seriously, that scene with Kathy & Geoff was so adorable; it gave me the warm fuzzies. Great song & such a creative video concept.

[@crystijones9518]

😂

[@eumario30]

I knew from the clothes Kathy was putting on the Mannequin, that it was going to be Geoff, cause those clothes could only fit Geoff's frame.

[@christineschutten248]

​@@eumario30 me too! I don't know much about clothing but it just totally screamed Geoff.

[@par500dragon7]

I knew as soon as I saw Geoff's head missing that was her 'perfect man'! Such a sweet ending!

[@534DaHill]

Geoff's acting as he woke up as "the perfect man" almost seemed doll-like and very convincing. And that scene was very cute and heartwarming. Clearly Geoff is a man of many talents. Also big shoutout to Kathy for her lovely performance in this video. It made it feel almost like a fairy tale coming true. And about the musical arrangement and performance: Top notch as always. Damn, Anthony, you falsetto seems effortless. Great job Layne on the arrangement. This might be in my top 3 Voiceplay songs as of now.

[@rednyc78]

Bro geoff is the perfect man

[@Keytastrophic]

The fact that the Sign in the beginning says Voiceplay in German is an incredible detail

[@scarletm1848]

That ending was the cutest thing I've ever seen. You are both so lucky you found someone you love so much!

What about this: Dancin' In The Fire by Steelheart, we want Eil Jacobson to take full lead, high harmony by: Cesar de la Rosa and collaborate with Adam Rupp from Home Free, Geoff will used mixed of chest and subharmonic for the bassline.

2:41 was mindblowing in terms of harmony. It honestly is my favorite one I have ever heard. Thank you for blessing us with this masterpiece.

[@KaaSerpent]

And this. Right here. Is why they call you the Theater Kids of A Capella. This was just a whole, complete STORY from beginning to end, and of course all the vocals are on point as always. Can't WAIT to see what you do next. You just keep getting better and better.

[@tonifinley4872]

How is the bridge section Geoff wrote still my favorite part of this song??!! So dreamily romantic and vocally perfect!

[@kbm875]

Just played this song today on my radio show! VOICEPLAY GETTIN SOME AIRPLAY!!!

The way geoff sings is perfect, literally, and everyone's harmony 😊😭🥺

[@Lucky_Fxi]

That dissonant chord that resolves beautifully gave me and my partner chills. I'm in tears with how beautiful music can be ❤❤

[@Debs_Badger]

This is just the sweetest video for *so* many reasons. First, there is the incredible arrangement. It's soooo pretty (and beautifully sung). Second, there is the added bridge. Also pretty, but its lyrics are just so heartwarming. Third, there is Anthony, the perfect collaborator for this song. His voice just soars so spectacularly in it. Fourth, the narrative. Such a delightful, lovely story being told in this video. My heart swells in adoration. Thanks for this one, guys! 💕

[@Juilene1965]

It's so adorable that Kathy was making her perfect man...and of course it was Geoff! *heart melts!*

[@elvwood]

Totally - gorgeous and adorable. Am I talking about the song, the video, or Geoff? Yes...

[@panik6131]

For the love of Peter Pan!!! THIS ARRANGEMENT! OMG! From the high notes, to the lows, to the melodic runs, the bassy riffs! Jesus Christ. The original has a sentimental grip that cannot be done again, but you guys created another universe for it! Good job!!!!

[@morgonerlenstar]

Layne’s eye movement 😊 The ending is beautiful 😍

[@eb9782]

Your arrangements are so creative, I don't know how you come up with these bangers EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. (Not even going to talk about the singing, too much talent, you all have broken OP character builds)

[@timour567]

You all sound amazing, I am so happy to see Anthony Gargiujla he is just awesome!!!

[@scarletm1848]

I just finished the full voiceplay experience from your first video until now, and what a transformation! You guys are amazing! Geoff's Bass has improved so greatly! And he still has that high range! Also just the evolution of your hair becoming the beautiful long locks it is today is really cool Layne's beatboxing has improved so much from just simple snares and drums to the amazing sounds that he can make today! Seeing his family grow also put a smile on my face. And the background of the carrot Lord! 🥕 Eli's voice astounds me how much more confident it sounds and just amazing! The evolution of his beard recently is also cool perfect vocal fit for this song! Seeing the cast change throughout the years was awesome aswell from Tony with amazing stage presence and vocals to J None who is so charismatic and a really awesome singer and now with Cesar who has an angelic range and really cool hair, it has truelly been awesome to witness this. And let's not forget about Earl who I miss and was an awesome character and insane high tenor with a laser voice! Not to mention the production quality has improved so much from that first video they uploaded, just goes to show the really great improvement of production and arrangement! Well done! I know it is highly unlikely that you guys read this but on the rare chance that you do I just want to say on behalf of all of us, thank you. Truly amazing and inspiring to see all of your amazing transformations and to witness the group evolve into the amazing family it is today! Thank you! Also Hi Kathy!

[@yvonnejones9940]

💯💯💯

[@angiewoollard704]

You guys are the most imaginative, outside-the-box creators I have ever had the pleasure of connecting with. I am now and will continually be in awe of you guys. You make music so incredibly interesting. You are never boring. You inspire me to step outside my own box. 🥰 Kathy - you are GORGEOUS and a joy to watch. You're a fabulous actor and I hope you had fun stepping into this role in front of the camera for a change! Layne's arrangement was already ethereal and fairytale-like, and Geoff's additions just elevate it to the next level of dreaminess. *dreamily dances away in 6/8*

[@sarahborzelli_Castellineicieli]

love also all the little easter eggs as the sign Stimmen Spiel, the cubes spelling VoicePlay, "Maybe cut off his hair", Pinocchio, the Cuckoo clock,... and by the way this is the story of Geoff discovering he got hands helping to sing even lower

[@huldradraco]

For anyone wondering about the "additional music" in the credits: the bridge that Geoff wrote (original music and lyrics) is from 2:00 to 2:42 . The rest was arranged by Layne 🙂

[@melodiemalone2317]

Oh thanks i always see in the other comment the brigde are great but i m not musicien so i don t know what it s mean

[@Zultar]

Geoff did so good writing this part!

[@huldradraco]

@@Zultar Agreed, it's actually my favorite part of the song. Those lyrics are so amazing ❤❤

[@shirleykarr560]

Oh, thank you! In theory I know what a bridge is but rarely can recognize it in a song. Those lyrics are lovely and that chord gives me chills of the best kind, every time I hear it.

[@StarNanny]

Dang! I wondered about that “shine”…..it’s like an audible smudge-blending-of-color!

[@joelclary6474]

There is an incredible chord near the end that is pure magic.

[@lkayh]

This is going to be amazing!!! Hi, there, Kathy!!

[@sarahborzelli_Castellineicieli]

I don’t need no light to see you shine! What a wonderful arrangement - such great layers to enjoy! Layne you did a wonderful job on this. Cesar’s soulful voice fits the song perfectly! Eli is just a bomb - how clean and clear and beautiful his voice is. What a great addition is Anthony! So powerful and fitting! 2:53 🤩wow! And Geoff on 1:27 😍!!! And the storytelling is so so sweet! How lovely is the reference to Pinocchio. I love the ending with Kathy & Geoff! How beautiful are the lyrics Geoff wrote for the bridge? 2:00 Geoff should absolutely write more! He is the perfect man indeed! Well done, Kathy! Can you ever really know how you built all these tiny worlds here in my heart? Inside this white noise, your luminance burns like a star. Quietly, you are saving me - please don’t fade away Into the darkness of night - I don’t need no light - I don’t need no light to see you …. Shine…

[@Naomi-w1p]

Geoff has such a nice smile when you see it at the end of the video

[@the-reading-lemon]

The little detail of the sign at the start saying "StimmenSpiel" (VoicePlay in German) made me smile right off the bat. Fantastic song, I love the whimsy of the set design.

[@cindyowens3965]

Thank you for explaining that. I don’t speak German so I completely missed that. And I was wondering about that sign!

Cesar had no hands at this moment in time, so he couldn’t bring her coffee… Nope, don’t know what Kathy put in there, but it seems to be potent because her mind is brilliant (and totally crazy - who would think to create FIVE perfect men?? I mean, of course she finished them all!)!

[@janetjenkins2111]

Love it. Just the right amount of whimsical.

[@AudioVile]

It is, in my opinion, impossible to pick a "favorite" from Voice Play. Whichever song I'm listening to at the MOMENT is my favorite. 😉 THIS piece has such intricacy woven in with simplicity... mixtures of staccato and gently flowing transitions... amazing engineering.... and (even though we've come to expect them) some harmonies that elevate vocal music into the sublime. And the whole perfect man theme with Geoff being 'created and welcomed to the living' by Kathryn?? Perfection!!! They did it again. Just fantastic!

[@godimlarge]

I’ve been excited for this ever since “Just Sing”. Amazing addition

[@sposeidon2374]

This really turned out to be such a beautiful video!! The arrangement and vocals were already gorgeous, but the story just leveled it all up even further. Before the Patreon experience of making this video, I don't think I ever understood just how important the story telling element is with music. I've actually learned quite a bit since becoming a VoicePlay fan, about music and myself, so thanks for that, guys!

[@maeco7]

Absolutely gorgeous job with this one, guys! Just a fantastic arrangement - I love it so much more than the original.

Lovely to see Kathy, and fabulous collab with Anthony! 😊

[@lauriehallcolemandowns7364]

That one "shine" that is so tight and complex I can't ever figure out what chord it is, it's so filled with shimmering dissonance and harmonies all at the same time, feels like there's more than just you five on that chord...more like an angelic choir!! It was the perfect chord for "shine!" Those kind of chords are SO hard to pull off so securely! Such beautiful arranging! And everyone was spectacular on this one. Love the story! Kathy's adorable!

Oh my gosh this is the cutest freaking thing I've ever seen. I wasn't expecting a whole lot, because I hated the first version I heard, but THIS. I couldn't stop smiling throughout, like "oh this is actually pretty cute", and then the ending just absolutely blew my mind. And the fact that Geoff wrote the bridge makes it even better. I'm sorry I'm not commenting more on the music, cause you guys all did an epic job (I've been waiting for this collab since 2020!). I'm just still reeling from how delightful the video was
