I'd like your opinion on a record my aunt made back in 1962. Link is below. No video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2HPhKeFa6-BmrM

[@barbarakennedy2667]

Thank you. I am searching for all kinds of artists to hear their versions. I have loved this song since childhood.

[@marshayoung9387]

I think Christian Larson's version is better than the original. Now I find that Geoff Castallucci's version is the best of all.

[@SandraJB321]

Just goes to show everybody is different. I listened to this version, and I like Geoff's a LOT better.

[@thomasfarr7934]

With all of Geoff's "solo" works, every person you see, every voice you hear is just Geoff. He layers it all himself of himself!He also has a five octave range!

[@johnbattles1002]

Out of 10, Geoff Castellucci is at least a TWELVE! If you choose to react more to him (and his a-capella group Voiceplay, of which he is a founding member), I really hope you do. You'll have a lot of catching up to do, and I guarantee you that each one will be amazing & fun! By the way, you probably realized (but just in case), all "five" men here were the same person -- Geoff! He's insanely talented & creative! Thanks!

[@CynicalTesuji]

Geoff's cover of House of the Rising Sun will surprise you. He's not actually going low in this one; it's pretty much all chest notes. House of the Rising Sun has some of Geoff's subharmonics (a vocal technique used to achieve super-low notes) placed right up front in the mix, and those will blow your mind. Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold is an overall very deep cover, but it's a mix of subs and chest, and if you're unfamiliar with the technique it can be difficult to differentiate the two. Another you might like is his cover of Way Down, by Elvis Presley (and featuring JD Sumner on the deep bass backing vocals). Geoff hits that iconic C1; an incredible achievement for a natural baritone. Don't let the deep bass fool you- he's worked hard for every note. Same goes for his upper range, which he had to develop back when he worked for the Disney parks. He also creates his own vocal arrangements (as well as all the instrumentation), shoots and edits his own videos; his 'crew' consists of his wife who is his production manager, and some of the guys from VoicePlay, the a cappella group where he sings bass. Eli, their tenor, provides incredible lighting work, and also did the 3D renders for this video. Layne, VoicePlay's vocal percussionist, co-owns a video production studio, where Geoff often films (this was filmed there), and sometimes he does some camera work as well. Additional makeup or camera work is hired on as needed, but it's generally a pretty small production, and one where Geoff has a hand in everything. It's a lot of work. Then keep in mind that he's doing the exact same thing for VoicePlay too, at the same time. He ought to be praised for his work ethic, as well as his gorgeous voice!

[@johndeeregreen4592]

Not a natural baritone; no baritone can hit an F#1 in chest voice... not possible. Even on this song, he is hitting a thick B1, which, again, not possible for a baritone. Even a low baritone struggles to get to a D2... the first octave with chest voice, timbre, and volume is reserved for low basses... not even a typical bass can do that.

[@CynicalTesuji]

@@johndeeregreen4592 I was just repeating what I've heard Geoff himself say. Not being a vocalist myself, I can't speak to the accuracy of his statement; perhaps he was being facetious and I missed it, but he seemed sincere.

[@nerdywordyprincess8499]

[@upsidedownpyramid7617]

@@johndeeregreen4592 I am a low baritone, morning voice gets me around C2 but first octave takes either mixing chest fry or doing subs for me. Basses are something special because I get told all the time that my voice is crazy low at 19, yet a bass like marwan ayman speaks naturally higher than me, but can sing in chest much much lower.

Some of us women love Geoff's long hair look... 😉 There are videos of him in his a capella group Voiceplay with short hair but he's best known as he is now lol.. I have to say that as an old die hard 70s and 80s metal fan, i would never have thought I would love something like this or a capella... However since discovering vp and subsequently Geoff, I now regularly listen to them... Maybe you might like Geoff's versions of 16 tons and big bad John. He's also done a fantastic cover of ain't no sunshine and a tongue in cheek cover of Way down.. ❤️🇬🇧 Ps a cover should never be the same as the original.. Geoff and Voiceplay ALWAYS change it up and mixes things

[@suzybailey5501]

Fabio jokes aside, and how dare you sir, Geoff and his hair are far better looking! 🙂 One of the things I love about Geoff (and his amazing group VoicePlay) is that he pays respect to the original melody while rearranging enough to showcase his own voice and abilities! Geoffs harmonies are always gorgeous and he has the ability to harmonize with himself better than most. If you liked his bass tones please check out his cover of 16 Tons, Big Bad John or House of the Rising Sun, all excellently done! Thank you for your reaction, subscribed in anticipation of more Geoff and VoicePlay! 🙂👍

[@a-World-Of-Payne]

Geoff is something else. His music has completely changed my approach to singing, definitely check out more of his stuff (also his a Capella group “Voiceplay”) Great reaction as always sir

[@johndeeregreen4592]

I was always a purist when it came to singing... studying Geoff changed all that. Using subharmonics, fry, growls, and a stronger falsetto, I took my better than average 3.5 octave range to nearly 6 octaves. If we count the (unusable in most cases) fry (that one came from studying Tim Storms, though), it's more like 7.5 octaves. I don't count the low extremes of fry, however, since some days it's there and others it isn't.

[@a-World-Of-Payne]

@@johndeeregreen4592 I spent a very long time trying to improve my higher range, only to get more and more frustrated that I couldn’t improve it much. When I discovered Voiceplay (also Home Free), I decided to try and work on my lower range. I succeeded 😎 and as if by magic, my higher range became more usable as well! I have no idea what my actual range is in octaves, but I can sing certain songs that were previously impossible for me. Thanks Geoff (and Tim Foust of course) 👍

[@lisavantassell5773]

I couldn't even wait until you finished this reaction - I highly, highly recommend you check out Geoff"s covers of 16 Tons and Big Bad John.

Great reaction! For more Geoff I recommend his covers of Sixteen Tons, Big Bad John, and the hilarious but underrated Saddle Up.

[@Badger77722]

Congratulations on pronouncing Geoff's first name correctly - a lot of people mess up on that, so much that Geoff has made a joke of it in several of his videos (including the BTS video for this video)! In keeping with the various mispronunciations and misspellings of his name he's seen and heard over the years, he's named the "clones" he creates for his videos - L to R, meet Jeff, Daryl (!), Geoff, Goff, and Jeoph. Rather oddly (to me, at least) Geoff considers himself a baritone with a bass extension. Considering some of the low notes he can reach, his extension must be several sub-basements deep! And he didn't even use any sub-harmonics in this song - it's all chest voice with a couple of growl notes. Any of the songs on Geoff's solo channel would be worth your time, but I'd especially recommend Sixteen Tons (cover of the old Tennessee Ernie Ford song, another song with no sub-harmonics) and House of the Rising Sun. For VoicePlay songs (Geoff is the bass in that a cappella group), My Mother Told Me (Geoff substitutes for a Viking war horn) and Oogie Boogie's Song (from Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas).

[@carolcjh8938]

[@raeyth_]

Geoff is one of my favorite vocalists ever. If you want to hear a song that showcases his full range, check out his cover of "High and Dry" by Radiohead. It's absolutely insane

[@par500dragon7]

'Holy Crap' .... LMAO!! Welcome to the Geoff Castellucci rabbit hole. He is the bass in the acapella group VoicePlay and has a 5 octave range. He arranges many of VoicePlay's songs, and does his own arrangements on his solo work. He also produces, films, and edits all his own work. He is crazy talented!

[@AndieO]

[@StorytimeWithLana]

I got the Fabio feel. lol Great reaction.

[@Aurora-cv5to]

Geoff - or his a capella group, VoicePlay, will never sing a cover like the original. When he decides to do a song the first thing he does is spend hours - sometimes days - tracking down and listening to every other version he can find. As he says - if it's been done, why would he do it again? ' His goal is to do something fresh with an older song. Keeping that in mind, he did great versions of 16 Tons and Big Bad John, but one of my favorites is the Bill Withers classic: Ain't No Sunshine. But if you're here to laugh and see some Halloween things, check his Monster Mash and Headless Horseman.

[@forgiven36511]

[@nerdywordyprincess8499]

I found your channel from your Bo Burnham reactions. I think you sold him a little short by comparing his cover too much to your favorite version. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Geoff does his own arranging, performing, producing, editing, etc. The final audio mix is usually done by Ed Boyer. Geoff has a 5 octave range and is amazing at what he does. I'd love to see you react to another one of his covers and some Voiceplay ones as well. On another note, I love Geoff's hair. Myself and a lot of other Voiceplay/Geoff fans call it his princess hair; especially after his little stunt in Voiceplay's cover of We Don't Talk About Bruno.

[@christineschutten248]

I'm glad you like this. I love Geoff he's so talented. In case you were wondering he produced, directed, edited and acted in this video along with arranging the song. I never get tired of his stuff or that of his group VoicePlay.

[@christinestromberg4057]

Geoff always makes a song his own. When preparing to arrange a song he listens to all the previous covers, then sees what he can add that hasn't been done before. If he can't add something new he won't do it. His arrangements are second to none. Sorry, don't know who Fabio is.

[@maloxi1472]

Geoff also has great resonance and has actually hit A0 on a song for about a second, so that makes him the lowest bass in this roundup.

I recommend though because it's Halloween month Hide and Seek (Ding Dong) Voiceplay. The theme is the Haunted Mansion in Disney World. Another recent is In The Hall of The Mountain King.

Assuming you're serious about not knowing who Fabio is, I'll answer. Fabio was/is the most sought-after cover model for romance novel cover art. His peak was the late 1980's-90's. The last I heard about him, he was recovering after being hit in the face by a large bird (duck, maybe?) while he was on a rollercoaster ride. Drew blood and everything. Anyway, Geoff really does resemble Fabio, although most of the resemblance is because of the hair. Besides his face, Fabio was also sought out for his hair.
