I listen to this when I lay down to relax or go to sleep. Put it on loop. Put headphones on high and lay down. When took my 2 naps I woke each time to find I've been listening for 2 hours. I sleep lightly so could still here it. I can and do song with it word for word. Doing different person's parts each time. This is a fun one.

hi Liz

[@ruthinator]

Considering that this is a song with no lyrics, it's surprisingly entertaining! Trust Layne and Geoff to be the arranging masterminds that they are.

[@RustyDust101]

Well, actually there is a choir and solo sections sung to the music. But probably far too non-Christian for the USA. Because the trolls and other underground kin are discussing how Peer Gynt stole the Mountain King's daughter's heart and what they would do to him if they caught him. Tearing out his hair, or making broth out of him.

[@janetdw]

@@RustyDust101 I looked it up after Geoff provided a link to Classics Explained and then I went looking for a few other sources. I was so surprised that there are lyrics to at least part of it. I’ve heard this song all my life and I knew it had to do something with trolls because my grandfather was Norwegian. I didn’t know the details of the story. Knowing those details makes it so much more interesting, at least to me.

[@deanmarion5477]

What about this: Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away) by mötley crue, absolutely and definitely we want Eil Jacobson to take full lead, collaborate with Adam Chance from Home Free with Scott Hyoing from Penatatonix will do low harmonic unison in the background will used a lot of 3rd octave with the low harmonic with Geoff will used his subharmonic with different depth for the Bassline, collaborate with VJ Rosales for the high harmony.

You ALWAYS create a story for every performance, and it's SO much more than just awesome vocals and catchy arrangements. There's emotion, and thought, and personality. Every time. What I wouldn't GIVE to be able to tell stories like that. It amazes me, entertains and makes me think, "hey- maybe I can stop being be too freaked to actually put my own stories out there. Because they make such an awesome, positive change, and I wanna try to add onto that in my own special way." You guys, altogether, are a living storybook, and I think we'd all hate to ever miss a single turn of the page. We need more storytellers in the world- you guys are magical, and don't you forget it.

[@Tintenstreuner]

This was my introduction to VoicePlay and til today it's still my favourite. This is basically their portfolio song where everyone shows everything they can do: Eli his full range from low to high; Cesar his phenomenal acting skills; it's my favourite singing part of Layne and he also gets particularly creative with his percussion sounds; Geoff does both the bass and the lead singing; and Elizabeth is my favourite one-time featured artist and my second favourite at all after Omar Cardona (btw the second VP video I watched was Dragonborn). It's also my absolute favourite VP music video both in storyline (Mini Eli! The carrot mini storyline!) and styling/set and even the outro ("Stop! Eating! The merchandise!"). Upon every rewatch I discover something new. (Btw David K Reacts pointed out how Elizabeth's character was probably the leader of the group and the only one who knew what they were doing. Super interesting reaction!) I just can't put into words how much I love this and how much I wish this was more popular! I would absolutely watch a full stage play or movie about this just with a capella singing without lyrics, perhaps the whole Peer Gynt or a crossover with Dragonborn! XD Okay, okay, I'll stop raving. 🙈

How could I be so entertained by a song with absolutely no discernable lyrics? I am literally 3, or so, hours new to these guys and have been mesmerized by every single song they've done. The work that goes into every song/video is mind-boggling and so very much appreciated. I can't seem to keep the members straight though as they've changed over the years, lol, so I'll just refer to them as the deep-voiced viking guy, the beat-boxer, the guy that looks like he could go berserker with his rocker voice, the I don't know who He is, but I think I'm in love now guy, and the extra guest that's usually a woman who can hit notes that should not be humanly possible. Yeah, that's how I'm doing it from now on. LOLOLOL These guys can sing anything and this one proves it!!!

[@tonifinley4872]

The bass is Geoff (pronounced Jeff) Castellucci. He has about a 5-octave range. The beatboxer is Layne Stein. He also sings, rarely taking solo lines, mostly background harmonies, and also has a 5-octave range. Geoff and Layne do most of the arrangements for the group. ** They're the only remaining original members of the group, which started in 1997 as 4:2Five (when they were in middle school). The rocker who looks like he could go berserker is Eli (pronounced Ellie, rhyming with jelly) Jacobson. He's been with the group for 12 years, I believe. He's officially the group's tenor, although he has a 4-octave range. The newest member is Cesar (pronounced like the Roman Emperor Caesar) de la Rosa. He's been with them for 2 years now. Officially, he's their baritone, but he also has about a 4-octave range. Together the four of them - or five when they have a featured artist - they truly make musical magic. Welcome to the VoicePlay rabbit hole. We "voiceplayers" are all very happy in here!

So cool to hear actually “classical” singing by the whole group - mixed in with character voices 😆 and rock/pop styles too. Eli- yeeting your mini-demon into the stew (and his vocal) was one of my favorite bits 💖💖💖💖 Everyone - Everyone of you - were brilliant. L O V E D. I T!

[@GamerAJ-1025]

I love that the potion is just drugs and hot sauce

[@tonifinley4872]

Plus an orange finger (or mini-carrot), a mini-Eli, a cayenne pepper (?), and a magic carrot to make everyone go POOF!!

[@EventHorrorEyesOn]

When ya really think about it, what more do you need from life than drugs and hot sauce?

[@uddajag8232]

Layne, this arrangement is fantastic! So funny! The video too. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@eliprost2312]

Incredibly intricate, sounds incredibly difficult to perform. Seriously this is like a masterclass in arranging music. Fantastic work

[@PatR2243]

This is the best version of one of my all time favorite songs ever. You all are amazingly talented and make all your videos so much fun.

[@MrSalvarion]

Third song I've heard so far. Heard "the dragonborn comes", "Hide and seek" and this. You guys are freaking AMAZING. Can't wait to hear more. ;)

2:36 has to be my favourite part, Geoff's low notes never cease to amaze me

[@hannahnicquole7715]

I didn't know I needed an a capella version of this piece until I heard this the other day. It made me smile, laugh, and just be amazed with this group all over again (I feel like I say this on every song they cover but it's true). Liz is just freaking incredible. She KILLED those notes. I was highly impressed. That is difficult. Thank you guys for another amazing cover and breathing some new life into the piece.

What about this: Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do) by Van Halen, Collaborate with Adam Rupp from Home Free and Kevin Oulsa from Penatatonix In harmonic unison will take full lead, Geoff will used his subharmonic with different depth for the Bassline, high harmony by Eil Jacobson and Cesar de la Rosa.

This was always my favourite classical song for this exact reason, it sounds so dastardly. Chef’s kiss

[@macraederdeyn8548]

My Favorite classical song in this world performed by brillant people. Thank you all for this!

[@lindamarks4252]

10/3. THIS IS SO ENTERTAINING! SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH! GREAT COSTUMES! IT MUST TAKE HOURS TO GET YOUR MAKE-UP ON!

[@wolfrunner700]

I love this song and this adaptation of it is awesome. I am a fan and lover of all things dark and creepy and this is just right up there. I have also played this song as a solo piece when I played tuba so I know exactly how hard it can be even though it sounds easy. Elizabeth has a set of pipes on her for days. They way she can transition and still be on pitch is amazing. I am jealous how low Goeff can get. My voice is no where near that deep. All in all this is one of my favorite videos I have seen in a while.
