Lighting --- which is extraordinary - by Eli and Geoff. When Eli messes with the lighting, expect to be amazed.

[@christinestromberg4057]

Youi'd be hard put to remember the song from the film. It was sung first by a small boy on the gallows, very simply, then the queue of thieves and beggars waiting to be hanged join in, but it's still fairly simple and straightforward. What Geoff did with this arrangement was phenomenal.

[@Tryst46]

Later verse was sung by Elizabeth Swan as she rowed the small boat in Singapore. The Chinese sailor ended the line with "never say we die" as Elizabeth got out of the boat and remarked that it was a dangerous song to be singing.

[@christinestromberg4057]

@@Tryst46 Yes I'd forgotten that. :)

[@LoriPeace]

After hearing this version of the song, I looked up the scene on YT, and found it heartbreaking -- the number of people being hanged, apparently (from the announcement of the soldier) for having anything at all to do with pirates. And yes, the song was started by a boy who looked to be about 8-10 years old -- the idea of them executing a child that way is horrifying, especially because he wouldn't be heavy enough to die immediately when the floor dropped; he would kick for a while until he finally suffocated -- horrible way to die. (If you were heavy enough, your neck broke when you dropped, and you died instantly.)

[@LoriPeace]

@@Tryst46 Is the line "never say" or "never shall"? Have I been mis-hearing it all this time?

[@christinestromberg4057]

@@LoriPeace People think life is hard now. If you study history at all you find out just how hard life used to be , unless you were wealthy.

[@super_siri]

The way they sound so cohesive is actually more about how well they match vowel sounds. It's really hard to get the exact same vowel sound across multiple people, but they manage it. It does a lot to help them be extremely cohesive. It's really impressive.

[@Broomrider1492]

Jose was in My Mother Told Me. Geoff did the arrangement and video. He and Eli did the lighting. Have outdone themselves once again. Vikings and pirates galore.

[@aqhan]

Eli done all the backgrounds in "My Mother Told me".

[@bsmith5970]

When Geoff does the arranging, as he did here, he often uses Eli's 'metal scream' voice and reduces himself to a smaller part. I was impressed with Geoff's careful enunciation of 'watery'. Most singers would slur the 't' to a 'd' sound which is easier to sing. Makeup award to Cesar! He pulled back his Afro and then used the milky blue eye and hit a metal manacle on his leg that added a kind of 'bell' sound. Yes, Layne did sing bass. Jose was the man in the center with a beard who pulled his sword up and very carefully lowered it, hand over the tip, to avoid Eli's out-stretched arms.. His baritenor voice blends perfectly. I am amazed at how much sound 5 voices can make and how much 'movement' the camera, lighting (Eli and Geoff), and stage can bring to what is basically a static group.

[@elizabethhostetter1946]

i don't know how old Cesar really is, but he's always looking like a 12yo kid . . . i'd forgotten how BIG his hair was until i saw another vid. That's impressive he could flatten it down so far!

[@marshayoung9387]

Either Eli or Layne do some undertone singing with Geoff while he is singing in a different register. I believe Eli has a 5 octave voice range.

[@Jamie_T.]

You have Cesar & Jose confused. Jose was in the middle, Cesar in the white shirt (he's the newest VP member). IMO this deserves an award - absolutely mind blowing all around: singing, bass, beatboxing, video production - all out of this world.

[@MetalGuyReacts]

Thank you! I definitely don’t want to confuse anyone in the group.

[@sprumf]

The next one is even better. (honestly Idek when it’s coming out- but everyone will know why I say this when it’s out, it’ll be very obvious)

[@Jamie_T.]

@@sprumf Should be premiering this Friday 10/1 if all goes to plan.

[@sprumf]

@@Jamie_T. I really do hope so. 😫

[@mandyconway9692]

Geoff is the one that did the arrangement for this. He did an amazing job. Love it!

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

Calling Geoffs voice a fog horn is perfect!🐝🤗❤️

[@TracyH13]

You are going to love this, I think it's their best yet- vocally and visually Arrangement by Geoff 🌟 💙 🌟

[@Internetguy_L337_90D]

wow geoffs transition from low to high was spot on

[@realbser1956]

Geoff is otherworldly. Just a great rendition of this song. How lucky are we to have three groups like VP, HF & PTX all making glorious music at the same time? ❤️❤️🔥

[@Juilene1965]

Jose was the one in the center. Cesar is the one all in white with the murky eye on the far left. I believe the song was at the beginning of Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End, when the pirates were all being sent to the gallows and started singing. Voiceplay did an absolutely incredible job on this song! Eli definitely stood out with some of his most amazing work yet. Geoff was brilliant as always, and Layne looked like he was absolutely psycho! lol. I adore Cesar's clear, ringing voice, and I was so glad to see Jose return after how great he worked with them in My Mother Told Me. I think this is their best work yet!

[@tersommers]

This is amazing! Can't wait to see the baffled look on your face! Baffled seems to be the general consensus! Thanks for reacting to this masterpiece!

[@candilunsford2878]

Will you be on the list of broken reactors? Bet so, and with good reason. This is mind blowing considering it's acapella. Word through Patreon is that another is coming in a few weeks that's even more epic and Goeff breaks his low note record.

[@MetalGuyReacts]

That’s awesome! I definitely blew a fuse in my brain during this 😆 🧠

[@sprumf]

Indeed it is. I’m so glad that the word is spreading. as a patron myself, I know for a fact I will not be the only one who freaked out as much as I did. it’s hands down one of the best arrangements they’ve made and Geoff’s part… god- I can’t get words to explain it, jaw dropping in record breaking ways.

[@sesshoumarusama7397]

You probably would like their "If I was a rich man/girl" :D

[@trishaurvan9439]

So many reactors have been positively broken by the experience of this video. Be ready to be blown away!

[@Chris-yi3mo]

Eli would make a great rock singer

[@MetalGuyReacts]

I totally agree Striker! I'd love to hear him rock some AC/DC classics!

[@carinalundstrom7566]

I love Eli's rock edge

[@countrysaiyan1756]

Its a pre members song for a few of these guys, but you should hear VoicePlay do "Phantom Of The Opera". They Kill It!

[@sureevoltz4120]

The song is from At World's End episode when the they were hanging a lot of people. A boy starts it off before being hanged

[@tararocksong5085]

And the rest of the people followed along in the song and instilling fear in the soldiers.

[@draygontaygen677]

It was a brilliant start to that movie.

[@daleharden1749]

This piece made me realize how much I want to hear Eli sing metal. He sounds like he would crush it.

[@MetalGuyReacts]

I agree Dale! I’d love to hear him doing some metal tunes 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@johndeeregreen4592]

Dude, I have a professional quality bass voice with a 4 octave range... Geoff makes me timid/humble, lmao. These guys are on a level not many will ever match.

[@DnDAddictUK]

I am impressed, you held it together better than most!

[@MetalGuyReacts]

Thanks Sarah! I think it blew a fuse in my brain and I had to scramble to say stuff 😆

[@DravenGal]

It was the scene where they’re hanging a bunch of pirates, and a little boy who is about to be hung starts singing it.

[@lorrieriddle2211]

That last note by Geoff! How long can he SERIOUSLY hold that NOTE? Insanity! Every time I watch this, when Jose (playing the part of Barbosa) does the "all hands" part in the middle, I get goosepimples all over. Ceasar (playing the part of Calypso) has such a buttery smooth tone! SMH. Eli (playing the part of Jack Sparrow) could EASILY be lead in any metal band with that voice. I am not sure of who Layne & Geoff's characters are, but that look Layne does when he joins Geoff looks like he JUST escaped the insane asylum. You're right though, Geoff could easily be the foghorn on any of the maritime covers that they do, so crystal clear & raches down into your soul all the way to the soles of your feet!

[@monicasava]

Perfection!

[@MetalGuyReacts]

So fantastic!!

[@candilunsford2878]

Jose was center, Cesar was on the left.

[@chlistens7742]

the song comes from worlds end.. at the start where they are hanging the pirates' and a little kid starts the singing

[@witchqueen783]

It's in the very beginning of At World's End. The child starts it on the scaffolding and everyone joins in. Then the scene cuts to Elizabeth Swan in the small boat. Good opening to a fun movie.

[@lkreinmiller-author]

Pirate jam session.

[@mikesadventures9598]

Great reaction and love your shirt btw : )

[@marshayoung9387]

They are out of this world fantastic. I love Ellie's vocal range. He's awesome. Of course Geoff in his low bass throughout really shines. They all blend so we'll together & with such ease. Their arrangements are done by either Layne or Geoff but all the guys have a chance to give their input. The final decision is made by whoever arranged it. Layne & Geoff are music geniuses.

[@williamh7759]

If you haven’t already i highly suggest the oogie boogie song by voice play, some really good singing with some really cool effects

[@Tryst46]

Fun facts: The bell was a call to all 9 pirate lords to meet. When rung, it could be heard by all the pirate lords anywhere in the world. 'Fiddlers Green' is a reference to the sailors idea of heaven. A place where the fiddle never stops, the dancers never tire and the rum and tobacco never run out.

[@EnricoMarangonJunior]

Duuuude !! yooooo the voices are the metal instruments. !! trumpets, hornets and stuff !!

[@soular_wisdom]

Pirate's of the Caribbean - At World's End. Very beginning of the movie.

[@ericturner7824]

I think it is the 3rd movie, where there are mass hangings going on, when a youngish boy is set to be hanged, he starts to sing this, and the rest of the 'condemned' pick up the song and sing it......Cesar is on the left with the 'blind' eye, singing tenor, Jose is in the middle with the beard, the 'Captain' in this video.

[@misabissett2000]

So many stunned reactors. It's just remarkable. I don't always like everything they do but it's really good. The song itself is haunting and beautiful and they just enhance it.

[@MetalGuyReacts]

I agree Shannon! This was a haunting and beautiful rendition!

[@coryslist1554]

The song is from the first movie. In the beginning of the movie you see pirate's being lied to the gallows to be hung,and you hear a kid singing the song before he and the rest of the pirate's are hung.

[@samuelmncedisi1065]

It's from the third movie of the franchise, At World's End. Jose (the dude in the middle), when he lifts the cutlass and there's a flash of light - it's a replica of the scene where Jack Sparrow returns from Davey Jones Locker and the green flash of light in the sky (in the movie) signifies that.

[@gareldmarks224]

If Bruce Dickinson is the air raid siren Geoff is the foghorn. Been sayin' that for some time now.🤘

[@garryamey2401]

Enough said about the performance, perfect as always, if anyone is wondering about the sword Jose hoists, I have a kitchen knife the same. the mottling prevents meat sticking to the blade. Never seen it it a sword before but I can imagine it would be so much more efficient.

[@duncanemslie2215]

Great reaction video. Your videos are always spot on, when watching, can really see how much you get into the music and appreciate the skills and abilities of the performers. Keep up the reactions. On a side note, if you could ever do a reaction to Tom Walker & The Red Hot Chilli Pipers - BBC Quay Sessions. Its a version of Leave a Light on which is Tom Walkers song. I really believe you appreciate listening to that.

[@tschlaak]

Playing the part of the foghorn is Geoff 🏴‍☠️⚔️🖤

[@MetalGuyReacts]

You are so right Tracie! Geoff is so amazing!!

[@paigecharlwood128]

For some other good underwater kind of theme Geoff, try their Moana and Little Mermaid medleys, they are really good, you definitely get that vibe from Geoff in Moana I think

[@DC-tm7ys]

Video is magnificent 👌.

[@TrendkillGR7]

Love that Pantera poster

[@Finderup16]

If you like the pirate theme, you should listen to Home Free's "Sea Shanty Medley".

[@MetalGuyReacts]

I’ve got that one on my list for this week 🤘🏼🤘🏼 Can’t wait! Thank you Laila!

[@ashleyholmes9876]

There is another version of hoist the colors by Malinda along with Bobby Bass, Lauren Palsey, and Colm McGuinness.

[@marshayoung9387]

Thanks again for another great reaction. Will you please do a reaction video of Voice Plays version of Tennessee Whiskey. The runs they do are amazing. Especially the one at the end when they all together do a fantastic run so perfectly & in perfect harmony with each other. That is not an easy thing to do.

[@Knight_of_NI]

First time I heard this I had a full blown chord-gasim 😳🤔😂

[@spectrickx1678]

So low my mic thought it wasn't a voice.

[@raynedevantry8380]

This is an amazing cover; and I love watching these react videos. If you like sea shanties like this, HomeFree did a Sea Shanty Medley if you haven’t seen/heard it yet!

[@nightthornkvala94132]

Totally different feel, more cosplay and fun loving, but no less wonderful. And Tim dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow waving a tankard of beer around is a hoot!

[@warrogue62]

Here's the original scene from "Pirates of the Caribbean": kzbin.info/www/bejne/on-1m6dqp6iso68 This video IS incredibly mind-blowing. And goes straight into my "Energetic-motivational songs" playlist, together with "My Mother told me". :-)

[@shirokitsune6715]

if you want a viking horn my mother told me by voice play ......geoff literally did the viking horn ...

[@williampullig373]

You should check out dan vasc. He is an up coming metal cover artist who doesn't get a lot of recognition and I think you would enjoy and be surprised by his voice

Thank you MT!

[@militaryman815yt5]

You have to listen to hoist the colours @malinda version

[@floridareedsreviews]

Cesar is the one on the far-right, Jose is the one in the middle. Just FYI.

[@calebturner405]

Voiceplay did an awesome job with this, but my favorites are Colm McGuinness' version, and the collab between McGuinness, Malinda, Bobby "Bobby Bass" Waters, and the Stairwell Siren. Check those out when you get the chance. You don't have to react to them, but you do need to at least hear them lol

[@laundrygoddess4]

I wasn't a fan of the one with Melinda. A female voice just doesn't fit with the song

[@jessicaleser8822]

Just subscribed to your channel...this is probably the strangest request you will ever get, but can you react to the song Twisted from Twisted: the untold story of a royal vizier. It's a musical parody available here on KZbin.

[@christoffer8058]

Love the content! Would be awesome if you reacted to our band Called Tryin' within. Soon got second album out.

Unpopular opinion, I know, but I don’t find this the best cover. Seriously, the collab cover by Malinda, Lauren Paley, Bobby Bass, and Colm McGuinness is just haunting and beautiful. This one is good, and I LOVE Voiceplay, but it’s just too…on tune (?) compared to the tone and context of the original.

[@xanderkaufman5162]

Fog Horn he is. I think it was a good version, but not my favorite. I think it was too rock out for my taste on this song. Maybe I'm just a huge fan of the movie version. I agree it harmonized well.
