He got a lot more respect from me with his analysis of the "Nessun Dorma" by two of the Home Free guys. He pointed out and *demonstrated* why one of them was quite good, and the other was obviously out of his element.

Geoff’s sustained B0 sub is the ultimate flex.

Layne did the arrangement and Eli the amazing backgrounds. It was filmed, not green screen, but at a studio with immense (Full wall!) LED screens. Unfortunately, the guys were in leather and furs and the air-conditioning was not working.🥵 In My Mother Told Me Eli was a beserker. He obviously has recruited the whole group now. Even Cesar was scary. The makeup and a lot of the costuming is from MMTM. Among their tattoos are runes spelling out VoicePlay. I really like that J began staring out across the water and came in later like he was returning home to his family of VoicePlay. The music in the outro is the karaoke track. The percussion and background vocals could be a piece on its own because it’s so gorgeous.

The early part with J on his own may have been filmed later - apparently his flight from Washington to Orlando was 3 hours late, Kathy had to pick him up from the airport - then after this he had to fly back for a wedding!!

Don’t you just love that smug smile just before Geoff bombs us with a ridiculously low note? I also REALLY love that drawn out B0 sub. There are a couple times when he floats up a bit, can’t decide whether it’s a wobble or intentional (seems more likely intentional towards the end because it harmonizes well). But controlling a super-low sub that long can’t be easy. And don’t you just love the added dimension when J sings with these guys? Something about his voice and his vibe-they just feel complete with him. And his presentation of that rap section-so good. Cesar-it seems to me he has a very different vocal timbre from song to song-and here from solo to solo. We’ve heard that sweet innocent breathy voice a lot of times, more of a wail in Wicked and the short cover of Crazy, but this is the first time we’ve heard that fierce, throaty, gritty (no better word) sound. And the acting-he usually presents a really mellow, gentle vibe, but here I could imagine him throwing down-and winning, just because he won’t hold back. Seems like he’s just always all in, every song, whatever they need. Eli-I’m less surprised this time that he’s a convincing, scary Viking and rock god, but still super impressed. Layne-OMG. He’s just slaying it this year. We’re getting to hear him sing more, he’s crushing the beat-boxing, and his arrangements!

Where’s the third B0 at?

1 ) I love how they have re-created their characters from "My Mother Told Me". 2 ) This is the second most intimidating Cesar has been, second to "Hoist the Colors" 3 ) I still say J None's voice has matured tremendously, with a lot more character and power than he had when he was a regular. His time apart has done him well.

This one is just outstanding. I have to say that Layne sneaks stuff in. The weird noises and the fills, caught them all. But I have to remind myself EVERY TIME, that when J None goes crashing through that wooden door and creaks as it shuts behind him - that's Layne. And when I say every time, I have to have watched this 100 times since it came out on Patreon. All the costumes and "tattoos" are replicated from My Mother Told Me. Great reaction, Jen, as always!!

From one Jen to another ... you are one of my favourite analysers / reactors, and a wonderful artist in your own right. I rarely stop smiling when watching you.

Your expression and “I wasn’t expecting this…” was awesome. I think no one was ready for J None to rap. I’m wondering if you’d classify some of Cesar’s notes as gritty; it does feel like it to me but I’m no expert. Definitely felt the berserker in him for this one. It feels like he really showed something different. Thank you again for your analysis. It’s always entertaining and educational to watch you. Have a lovely weekend.

I decided to watch all reactors to this song. The ones that know more about music stop most often, sometimes on each phrase. This is masterful. To me, Cesar was the star. One of his phrases sends chills down me every time I hear it. Geoff's long B0 at the beginning was insane.

Miracle Of Sound even left a comment on this saying how they liked it

Finally! I’ve watched other reactors, but yours and Peter Barber are two that I’ve have anxiously awaited!! Thank you!

I’ve always thought of Valhalla as the Vikings’ heaven but it’s much more intricate than that: “It is described as a majestic hall located in Asgard and presided over by the god Odin. Half of those who die in combat enter Valhalla, while the other half are chosen by the goddess Freyja to reside in Fólkvangr. The masses of those killed in combat (known as the Einherjar) along with various legendary Germanic heroes and kings, live in Valhalla until Ragnarök when they will march out of its many doors to fight in aid of Odin against the jötnar.” So the warriors are preparing for battle knowing they may be slain but offered rewards in the afterlife.

I love that this group is perfectly at home in so many places. They fit just as well on Broadway as they do in a Viking fiord. Just amazing! Great analysis, Jen! ❤ I had a blast watching you experience this one!

The guys are wearing the same face paint and similar if not the same clothing as in My Mother Told Me. Cesar wasn't in that video but he's wearing the same hooded cloak Jose Rosario had in the previous video. This one is more them preparing for battle, working themselves into berserker mode, especially Cesar and Eli.

Something I noticed with Eli's high solo. He's maintaining the sound by really widening and focusing on vowel shapes. Enough diction to let us understand what he's saying but those vowels are his focus, nice and open and supported, letting those notes ring clear.

Yes, that G0 goes for about 15 seconds *maniacal giggle*

Best reactionist ever ❤️

Awesome reaction as usual, Jen. And that was a very impressive B1 you executed to brilliantly at 6:23.

This actually made having a cold more enjoyable this weekend, because I was _almost_ able to sing along with Geoff's non-sub parts. I say "almost" because I could still only hit G1 rather than F#1, but that's lower than I can usually get with any accuracy or body to the sound. I'm trying to follow Tim's advice to focus on my higher end, but Geoff keeps sucking me in...

I rate it 10 raised alehorns out of 10 ). The air conditioner wasn't working in the studio they were recording in. They were sweating so much with those heavy costumes they were wearing. That is true dedication. I love Cesar cutting loose. Layne is the best ever. Geoff going subterranean. Eli the rock God. I usually love J. None but not the rap.

He sustained that B0 subharmonic for 15 secs
