Voiceplay & Adriana's Hilarious Take on You're A Mean One Mr Grinch

[@raycardy4843]

Hi Thale! Really enjoyed your reaction, they really had fun with this one! Regarding the captions, you can usually tell if they did them as every line will have a musical note at each end - those ones looked like the standard 'auto-generated' ones! Adriana's first video with them was their 'Frozen 2' medley - her parents are friends of the Castellucci's, VP saw some of her IG videos and invited her to sing with them as a 15th birthday present! She was in 'We're Good' (Cesar's introduction!) and 'Good 4 U' as well as a bunch of their 'minis'/shorts..!

I'm looking forward to getting to those as well 🥰 and I'm really glad you liked this one as well ❤️

I'm guessing Geoff had a wonderful time doing his best Thurl Ravenscroft voice! As for Adrianna, she's in VoicePlay's cover of "Jingle Bell Rock" from "Mean Girls" this year. She just looks a bit different as a blonde. And as you noticed several other songs..

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

I'll get to that one very soon now as well. Hopefully before Christmas day 🥰

@hwyla If you want to see/hear Geoff do a full on "Thurl Ravenscroft," you should check out Peter Hollens' Christmas Movie Medley from three years ago. He got Geoff as a guest to sing "You're A Mean One Mister Grinch." Peter went mostly Classical/Original with the songs in in this medley so Geoff just sang it straight and went full "Thurl Ravenscroft."

Sorry about job but we get to enjoy you more merry Christmas 🎉dear

Thank you, and I'm really looking forward to having the time to make more content than I used to. Now I also need a good software for editing. The one I use is kinda laggy...

They asked Layne how easy it was to beatbox with the Who nose. Of course, their work is always pre-recorded, but even looking like he was beatboxing was really difficult. Great reaction, I am here for all things Voiceplay and Geoff!

Hi Ilona! I wondered if the 'spoken' parts were done while in costume, based on the way that Ariana sounded at the beginning...?

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

I'm glad you enjoyed it. ❤️ I can imagine it's really hard with those noses 😅😅

[@thisismetoday7423]

The Grinch was a hired actor.

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

That explains it, since I didn't see anything in the description. (Unless i literally failed to read)

[@patriciaschuman4205]

Yeah, they have been very careful not to put a name out, probably because whoever it was might have been an actual universal studios employee Grinch performer using their (the theme park's) makeup and costuming since it is so incredibly good?

[@raycardy4843]

@@ThalesMusicCorner Sorry, Thale! It was in the credits - 'Grinch provided by Makeup And Creative Arts', they also did the makeup/prosthetics for them, they are a Florida-based company that work in film, TV - as well as creating costumes for theme parks...!

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

Yeah, but not who played him. But that was explained ❤️

[@jonadabtheunsightly]

As far as I know, the identity of the person inside the Grinch costume, is undisclosed. Adriana has been in several things with them; this is, IMO, by far the best of them. Not that she isn't good in the others (her voice is, as you say, great), but she's just really particularly amazing in this one, and also, it's a very cool arrangement and a very well-done and entertaining video. Second best is probably the Frozen 2 medley.

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

Thanks, and yeah it would seem that is the case. And I'll be getting to that one soon as well ❤️😁

[@huldradraco]

they have been very careful with not revealing the name of the Grinch, not even to their patrons. Universal Studio Grinch actors have strict rules about not portraying the Grinch outside of the parks, so we suspect this was why they didn't want to say anything, lol. but the Grinch's voice is actually done by Eli, who's a very talented voice actor.

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

I did not know that it was so heavily copyrighted. Makes it even cooler they they did it anyway then ❤️

[@keithjansen2409]

The person who played the grinch is top secret as far as anyone can find it is a dead end. The group will not disclose the information and I will never tell out of respect for them.

[@TraciPearson-ok2tr]

Thale, I love your reactions! Please keep going! I'd love to hear your reaction to Bobby Waters' (Bobby Bass, of The Bass Gang) solo version of You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch that he did for Christmas last year!

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

I'm so glad you like my reactions. ❤️ I'll absolutely check that one out as well, hopefully before Christmas is over 🙈😅😅

[@DennisKovacich]

Nice reaction, but it looks really weird when your ring light reflects on your glasses around your eyes. 😂

[@ThalesMusicCorner]

haha, yeah. I need to find a good angle and light-level so that I can avoid the worst of that.
