I think this is better than the original because with the visual of him showing his despair that "she" isn't there as he waits. Gives it a deeper message than the original.

Awesome reaction as always D J. This is the video that got me hooked on Geoff. He is the very first person I joined the patreon of. Then a couple weeks later I saw Dragonborn Comes and immediately joined Voiceplay patreon. Month later I watched Villains Haunted Mansion and found out that Layne Pattycake was with Voiceplay and immediately joined their patreon. Love ya kiddo💙

Hope you and your SO had a great date! As Geoff has so many times, he took a song I was ambivalent about (I always thought Withers was too up-tempo for the story this song is telling) and with his arrangement and videography tells the story better than the original artist or previous covers. This was the video that marked a big change in Geoff's approach, imo, and he started exploring -- through his acting as well as song choice -- a much greater emotional range than he had before. The somber, bereaved guy here who needs a hug so badly was followed in the next video by the emotional opposite in Way Down, where we saw flirty, dancing Geoff and officially met Goff, Jeff, and Jeoph. Maybe Geoff was influenced by hanging out with expressive Cesar, who has such infectious joie de vivre, or just being able to focus on arrangements and videos instead of touring. Probably both.

This is still my favorite of Geoff’s covers. I love everything about it; the R&B feeling he gave it, the subtle remix, his lovely baritone vocals, the natural rumbling low chest notes, his acting! I love the original (and Shawn’s version!) but this version has everything I want.

Bill Withers wrote the song after watching the classic movie "Days of Wine and Roses." From what i understand, Geoff based his storyline in the video somewhat on that movie in tribute to Withers' inspiration.

You'll accuse me of blasphemy, but I have to say it. I prefer Geoff's higher ranges for solos. That's where the tonal quality of his voice is at its best. The bass drops are impressive, but not necessary for me to love his artistry unless the mood of the song calls for it. This one didn't. I realize that's just my opinion; don't get upset about it. Your reactions are always great -- I enjoy them immensely, and love hearing your opinions on the many artists you follow.

Which is why he still calls himself a baritone, because it is where he has the widest range of styles and emotions.

What's the word for it? I'm gonna guess nonchalantly. Also - the little skippy part "anyti-i-ime" - he wrote and added it in since there is no actual chorus in the song.

A song you MUST react to is Mad World by the Bass Gang. You will not be ready for the amount of bassy goodness in it. And the collab artist they have for that one, Elliot Robinson, is probably one of the lowest bass voices you'll ever hear. Hitting chest notes down at the bottom of the 1st octave where most other guys need to use subharmonics or chest fry

Honestly, I never liked the original of this song. It always felt so “poor me I deserve all the pity”. But this version, this version I like. Geoff’s voice and the changes he made, make a big enough difference. The bird adores this song and often asks for it before bedtime. So, it gets played, but I do reserve the right to insist that only Geoff’s version makes the cut. 😀
@christinestromberg4057 Жыл бұрын
I was never impressed by the original by Bill Withers. Yes he wrote it but it seemed too upbeat to me for the words. Geoff gives it the angst it needs and deserves. He is gifted in being able to touch hearts and souls with his music and his voice. For me this demonstrates the highs and lows, and the all over the place feelings of being that frame of mind.
