    So... I did/caused a thing at work involving this video/song.
    I forgot I left Bluetooth on... and my phone connected to the entire speaker system at my job (a bakery), and everyone froze... looked around, and to my surprise many of them started singing along.
    My boss walks in and asks who’s music is this... my answer was it’s my phone, and it’s my favorite a cappella group singing. She asked who they are... I told her: it’s Voiceplay, a group of guys plus a female friend of theirs singing a song from Stranger Things.
    Her response: what else have they done? I show her some videos...
    Her next sentence almost brought me to my knees.
    My boss: “I love the beatboxer... he’s so handsome.”
    My response: yes yes he is
    So I ended up playing almost every song done by Voiceplay from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm... and singing along with every single one.

    VoicePlay, I absolutely LOVE how you add to, change, and/or embellish each verse to give it its own unique flavour. It’s classic VP, and one of the many things that keeps me coming back for more. Ashley was a great pick in collaborator - her voice just suits this song perfectly! The absolutely gorgeous blend of voices at 2:52 creates such an amazing, gentle texture.
    Layne, thank you from the bottom of my chord junkie heart for those Cmin(add9) chords at 1:04, 2:14, and 3:25 - I’m not sure you’ll ever realize how happy those made me! 😍This arrangement is just so pleasing and interesting. You have a real knack for taking the listener on a journey. (Starting and ending this song with a nod to the Stranger Things theme was a brilliant touch.)
    Cesar, your tender sweetness and passion always shines through in your vocals and your characterization in all these videos. I love watching you play to the camera.
    Geoff, I love it each time you do one of these three-note, two-octave drops like at 0:53. Such a cool and worthy flex. You are always proof that a bass line certainly does not have to be boringly holding down the root.
    Eli, your lighting game keeps getting more and more impressive. You’ve really managed to evoke so many cool tones and textures and emotions here.
    SO MUCH APPLAUSE. Thank you for this.

      I can hear Eli as a possible lead, if Cesar doesn’t do it.
      I can see/hear Layne being able to do this, with very little struggle.
      But I don’t know where Geoff would fit in... there’s no true bass drop in this one... other then being the bass line I don’t see him being the shock factor in this song.
      It’s an interesting idea for sure, and I don’t think they have done anything from Bowie yet either.
      I honestly want to throw Layne an EDM type song... but that might be too much... I’m mostly listening to instrumental music, anything Voiceplay and Pentatonix put out, and themes and music from video games... I’m not well versed in all the different genres of music, other then I barely tolerate country songs.

      Well, they've already recorded numerous songs by The Nylons... perhaps they could "update" one of them (since only Geoff and Layne are on the original).
      Though I must admit, it would be kinda fun to see how they would "rearrange" something by, say, The Persuasions (from six singers to five) given that it's already a capella.
      I've also heard rumour Geoff is a fan of Jukebox the Ghost, so there's always something by them - which could be quite the challenge.

    "FEATURING Ashley Diane anti-gravity" Ashley is magic, confirmed! Also, I think someone might want to give Layne a Turing test... Cesar on that synth line and Geoff doing the modulations 3(?) octaves lower than the original vocals couldn't have been easy! Ashley is perfect for this one, and Eli again makes it look easy!
    This has long been in my top 5 songs of all time, and this is a great version, as expected from VoicePlay! I feel like they have a really good mix of current music and classic hits like this and Dream On. Thanks for the hard work, guys, and Layne, this arrangement was very true to the original and at the same time soooo VoicePlay, I love it!

I'd love to hear some more dance style pieces, or really anything modern that has high BPM and Bass frequency, as Geoff and Layne really shine on those. As for collaboration, I think their current rotation of frequent collabs (Rachel, Ashley, Omar, Deejay and Adrianna) is really solid, though I'd like to see some more Emoni in the near future. They've really leveled up these past few years, and I'm excited to see where they go next.

    I was not expecting this to make me smile as much as it did. I haven't ever watched Stranger Things (just not for me) so I'm sure there's easter eggs I missed, but this just hit me in all the right happy places. Layne doing things with his beatboxing I'm not sure are real yet, Geoff being Geoff which means simply out of this world with the smoothness of everything he does. Cesar the unsung MVP with his performance (body language and faces), Eli nailing a tonal quality of Kate Bush and striking my young hearted 80s vibe with his dress, and I just crush for Ashley and I'll leave it at that.
    Edit: Also the production quality of the video is outstanding. Shoutouts to the background people that did the set, lighting and video editing. Probably the best effort of all 3 of these areas from Voice Play in a while.
