Holy mother of God! When my wife was dying of brain cancer, she'd sometimes play this song by Bonnie raitt... She knew I loved her more than my own life. It was more that she was going on a journey that I could not go along with her. I had to stay with our kids. I've never been the same.
I am so sorry for your loss.
My condolences to you and your family.
I am sorry for you and your family’s loss. I hope you can get through the grief and keep going, you never stop missing lost loved ones but at some point hearing their favorite songs won’t hurt quite so much. I hope you find that sweetness in the memory soon
🍃🌸🍃🙏🏽🍃🌸🍃
May Creator Bless, Guide, and Protect you and your family!
My husband Wes is waiting in heaven for me as well and this is one of his favorite songs! Perhaps they are watching over us together?
👵🏽👋🏾🍃🦬🍃💚🎄❤️🍃
Truly sorry for your loss....
no one is talking about how fucking low geoff goes at 4:04, right after his line i think you need headphones to hear it, idk what note it is but it sounds so nice
I still cannot fathom why this VoicePlay cover hasn't received millions of views. It is heartbreakingly gorgeous.
Whenever this one comes up in my Playlist, I just start crying. It's by far the most raw version of this song I've ever heard. I don't know what experiences Geoff was drawing off to arrange this and what the guys were pulling from during recording, but it's one of those times where you realize that emotion is universal.
You don't have to make me love you, Voiceplay. All you have to do is start singing and everything is right in this world for a few minutes. 💗💗💗💗
No sorrows, no pains, nothing bad exists, while those voices fill my heart. A moment of peace in the world. ❤❤
This is the sweetest comment i've ever seen! It truly speaks to all of us
Same here ♥
Amen!
Couldn't have said it better.
100 percent THIS. Whether it's a sad and touching song like this one, or a fun one like their Halloween covers, VoicePlay's music always transports me, feeds my soul, helps me to stop, breathe, see and hear and feel the depth and the joy of living. Making music like this is such a gift, both to the listeners and, I'm sure, to the singers themselves.
Thank you VoicePlay and EJ, for yet another demonstration of the range, not only of your voices, but of your hearts.
Just watched a reactor doing this and I was in tears all over again. So I had to come back and comment here.
One of the best things about is version is that by using different singers we also get some differing emotions, echoing how everyone grieves differently.
Cesar’s breathy voice sounds almost as if he is so overcome he can barely breathe, almost as if he can’t function or leave his room. Eli’s feels as if he’s still fighting. And as if he finds it too hard to believe that it can’t work. His part is still in the middle of coming to terms with the end. Perfect for his line. EJ’s runs are almost cries and wailing. While it is hard to watch this without crying, I think it really might be one of the best things ya’ll have ever done.
Agreed. And Geoff's part sounds like acceptance... sadness, but acceptance of the inevitable truth. This is a marvelous arrangement and performance. Tears every time I listen to it.
I grew with Bonnie raitte's version.... thank you. Thank you for bringing this back to life. Thank you for putting so much of yourselves and your emotions into it. And thank you for honoring without binding yourselves too the original.♥️♥️
So beautiful and haunting and Cesar just breaks the heart.
Why the whole world hasn't fallen in love with VoicePlay yet I'll never know! 😢
I just discovered Voice Play. Drawn by JC. I didn't realize that he collaborated with these guys.
Cesar made me believe every damn word he sang. Soulcrushed.
I'm a Geoff stan, but anyone else kinda crushing on Layne in this video?
Unrequited love...what a witch..the course of true love never runs smooth..and you never ever forget it.
@2:48 Eli.. my goodness. Just perfection.
Looking at the thumbnail again, and they're all so sad! Except for Geoff, who sort of looks like he's gonna find whoever broke his buddies' hearts and give them a piece of his mind.
How dare someone hurt his beloved Layne!? 🥰
Cesar, you made an old man cry.
You each owe us all hugs for making us feel the feels
HUG!
@@Thevoiceplay Hug very much appreciated!
I've listened to this song a lot thinking it was just a really good song but i think I've finally come to realize what music can really do for everyone. Reading these comments really show why they put there entire heart into singing every song they sing.
Get it VP!!!!❤. Amazing work Geoff! Holy moly Cesar! I am at a loss for words… Amazing talent! Actually, that can be said for all of you! You have all come so far in your musical journey, and it has been a pleasure and honor to listen.🤍
Thank you so much for sharing 🙏
* ugly sobbing*
in their solo part, i could really feel thier emotions..😭😭

1. Click on Video
2. Hit the Like Button
3. Hit play, close eyes and just listen 😌
I'm not the only one who loves it when Layne gets to sing in songs like this one, right? This cover was amazing. Everyone was so clear and you could easily hear the emotion in their voices without any wavering of tone. Great job to everyone.
I LOVE when we hear Layne sing!
@@bdennis3393 same
So do I. His voice adds a lightness to the mix that rounds out the harmonies. It’s time to look into cloning him so there’s a singing Layne and Layne for beats. Oh: and one for the violin.
But of course it’s everyone all together that makes VoicePlay magnificent.
Does anyone else think Layne is sexy?😉❤️
Just heard this group for the first time today. They are great .
Managed not to tear up until 1/2 way through 😢
A beautiful song - performed superbly❤❤❤❤
How does this video have so few views?!? The complexity of the arrangement is one of Geoff's best, and the song is beautiful and heartbreaking to start with. The vocals are on par with the best that VoicePlay has ever done - and that's saying something!
I ask myself that every time I watch or listen to this (i.e., five or more times a day). I adore this arrangement. I do wish more of it had stayed vulnerable and openly heartbreaking like Cesar's part, but I love it all nonetheless and wish more people were listening to and watching it.
Showed my 8 year old son the We Don’t Talk About Bruno video. He’s in the living room now watching back to back VoicePlay videos. And wants me to teach him subharmonics to sing like Geoff. I’ll… uh… get right on that
As I draw close to finishing out my divorce after 15 years of what I thought was unbreakable, this rendition of such a beautiful song hit me very hard. Thank you Voiceplay for this amazing and emotional song choice. I needed this.
It puts me in mind of my divorce as well. Tom and I were married over 21 years before we divorced. It's been some years since, and we are both happily remarried now, but there is still a wistful sorrow that his love for me died...and with it what I too had thought unbreakable. Yes, I've moved on, but a little love is still there, sweet and sad.
May you also move on, even if you cherish bittersweet memories too. 💜
I am listening for the first time in my life this song and I am going through a divorce too, and man, it is hard. I don't know what more to say, you get me and I feel you. Hope everything turned out good for you.
Wow, this is so beautiful and heartbreaking! Thanks Voiceplay and Bonnie, I thought I’d walked away from this feeling years ago. Then once I did, I discovered that it was so much better to be alone than neglected…
Wow, I'm speechless. So beautiful and poignant - every one of those guys sang the song like they had lived that pain. Sheer genius!
These men make you want to cry for them.
I live on the west coast but I’d go all the way to Florida to see these lovely people live ❤
This composition will bring tears to every man ever divorced or whose marriage has grown cold.
I could listen to this a hundred times and it will bring me to tears each and every time. The emotion in this cover is overwhelming 🥰
Heartbreakingly beautiful - especially Cesar's part at the beginning. So much emotion.
I'm crying. Cesar looks so sad!
I may never forgive you guys for doing such a perfect job with this song. You had me ugly crying.
This is the song that showed me, years ago when it first came out, what an incredible alchemical power art has: it can create something beautiful out of something tragic and painful. It has remained a touchstone for me all of my life. I never thought I would hear a version that topped the original.
To sing a song like this properly you have to express those painful emotions, and so you have to be willing to feel them. You gentlemen did not shy away. I deeply respect you for that.
Same. I’m bawling my eyes out. Snot bubbles and everything
Ugly crying each and every time I hear it. 😢❤
I still love to listen to it.
Someone in my house is definitely cutting onions right now... 😭
There are things that cannot be talked about or sung about them without experience. I play this song over and over again and I'm amazed at how deep and soulful you sing it.
If i had known this song 23 years ago and given the chance i would have had it played at my father's last farewell.
Unfortunately, I was "only" 10 years old and no one bothered to explain to me what actually happened.
I didn't say goodbye to my dad until later, when I found out everything and could say goodbye.
Thank you for this song, VoicePlay.
OUTSTANDING, Gentlemen. E.J. Cardona, you are awesome. This performance brings tears to my eyes. 100 stars out 100! BRAVISSIMO! Thank you for including the lyrics. Wonderful close harmony!
Those harmonies, those chords, those runs! This is a real masterpiece, believe me! 🥰🎶☀️❤️ But you can’t make me love you, because I already do. ❤️
💝 Cesar. and Eli 👏🏾🎉GEOFF 🎶
We absolutely need more of harmony for their newer songs from Voiceplay, what songs do you like or love for Voiceplay to do? My suggestion: Life love a Tragedy by Poison, collaborate with: Adam Rupp from Home Free just his vocal to take full lead.
@@deanmarion5477 I would love to hear them do a rendition of Hank Williams Sr's Alone and Forsaken.
@@123caeria : that fits Voiceplay criteria
Eli's beard game is on POINT! That is just a phenomenally better look for him.
This is another of those "Oh, who hurt you, my VP babies?!" songs. Just want to give all these guys a big hug and tell 'em it's gonna be okay, and we all love you already. Anyone who doesn't just hasn't heard you yet.
9/9. LAYNE, YOU HAVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SONG!
I love just about everything VoicePlay does. But some of the harmonies in this piece, combined with the melancholy, make this one of my new favorites. That last chord is simply unique in the universe. Riveting.
I’m sobbing. My bestie has MND and it’s how I will always feel about him
I’ve listened to everything Voiceplay has ever put on CZcams and I have to say, this is my favorite song they’ve done so far. This is audible perfection
Give them hugs. Give all of them hugs. My heart...!
I've always felt that this was the saddest song ever written. Bon Iver's cover is really good too.
Cesar's breathy voice at the beginning sounds like he had been crying so long/hard he could barely sing... so emotional! Love this arrangement! And EJ is the PERFECT collaborator for this song!
I believe he had just recovered from Covid19. His voice is still just a bit breathless.
I love it when E. J. joins you guys, but next time could you ask him to bring Kate Lott too?
What about this: wishful drinking by ingrid andress with Sam Hunt, collaborate with Kirsten from Penatatonix as ingrid andress, collaborate with Adam Chance from Home Free as Sam Hunt, Geoff will do the Bassline will use subharmonic, Eil Jacobson and Cesar de la Rosa for the high harmony. I want Lyane Stein to do half and half of ingressive phonation and regular beatboxing.
Funny you should say that E J Cardona is the perfect collaborator for this song because both E J Cardona and Omar Cardona are actually brothers
@@matthewpattison8611 Yes, they are two very talented brothers.
You guys don’t even have to make me love you. Cause I already do……..like a lot…😅❤️
Like a lot a lot or a little a lot?
An enormous amount!
@@Thevoiceplay an insane, possibly unhealthy amount of love...
so a lot a lot
@@Thevoiceplay Like to Infinity and Beyond! So a lot a lot😀
@@Thevoiceplay to the moon & back a thousand times ❤️ I would love to hear Layne take the lead in a soft ballad. While I absolutely love Layne's beat boxing his voice melts my heart. Cesar, you're a little fire cracker & an amazing addition to the group. Please stay forever with Voice Play. Well done as always guys ❤️
Eli killing that beard!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. BEAUTY OF THE HUMAN VOICE AT IT'S FINEST
Very “wow” bass line’
4:04 Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power, but you won't ... 🎶EJ!! This takes my breath away!
Cesar! Your emotions in the first verse break my heart every time. Absolutely beautiful.
Every time I hear one of their songs I can listen to them 20+ times and find something new in the vocals or acting each time. There is so much to see that there is no way you can see it/hear it with only one view
You could tell me this was by a boy band from the 90s, and I wouldn't question it.
2:47 the most beautiful run I've ever heard in my life, Eli you are amazing thank you for sharing your gift of a voice to us
EXCELLENT! E,J. Cardona, you ROCK! Love the close harmony! This performance brings tears to my eyes. BRAVO! 5 stars out of 5!
Excellent , Gentlemen. E.J. you are awesome. This performance brings tears to my eyes. 100 stars out of 100. Love the close harmony. Thank you for including the lyrics.
I just got out of a very abusive marriage of 7 years and I just cried my eyes out cuz I literally felt every single word of this song music has always been my safe place to truly feel how I feel with no judgement and I feel this is exactly how I felt in those final moments when I finally left my marriage I can't make him love me the way I deserve and not hurt me so thank yal so much for this amazingly beautiful song
Hi don’t mind me just weeping my heart out rn
Voiceplay: "I can't make you love me" 💔
You can't make us love you, because we already love you and always will love you ♥️
Seriously, why isn't this more famous?!
Boys...this song kept teenage me A L I V E in the 90s. So much pain from bullying at school and at 'home'. No one can replace Bonnie Raitt's version, but...make us proud.
UPDATE: Sobbing. Thank you.
I can't watch this video without tears.
I feel like my mind is free of all the killing thoughts by listening to this heavenly work of art...
Til now, there's never been a group on par with Take 6.
Finally!
This is NEXT LEVEL!
It's hard to write a comment with your eyes full of tears. Powerful. Perfect. Exceptional. I'm out of words. Cheers! //Rick
8/23. THIS IS SO EMOTIONAL, BEAUTIFUL!
What a beautiful performance. My mother was moved to tears when she watched this video.
Let me hear you sing this song; tell my story, make me cry for what is no more... I will love you forever.
Thank you, my angels of song...
I grew up listening to this song! Bonnie Raitt was one of my moms favorite singers
Isn't this a great arrangement?! I think Bonnie Raitt would approve.
Who hurt you, Cesar? That intro was chilling. I love E. J., it's simply magic when he is on a track. Once again Layne singing is breathtaking. Eli kills me every time, and Geoff is like a warm comforting blanket of sound.
OMG... Look at these LOOOOW notes!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
That two curling deep voice is the absolute best. Bonnie would be proud fellas
One of the most beautiful songs around!
OUTSTANDING, Gentlemen!. EJ Cardona, you are awesome. Love the close harmony. This performance brings to my eyes. Thank you for including the lyrics. 100 diamonds out of a 100. BRAVISSIMO!!
I would highly encourage you fine vocalists to check out Sons of Serendip's version of this song. The only reason I suggest it is because if you guys could somehow get the singer Micah Christianson on a future song, that would absolutely make my entire year, and I can guarantee you wouldn't regret the colab. Thank you all for honing your craft and sharing it with the world. We are all better off for it.
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL -!!!
. . . yeah. Other people have already made more intelligent comments, this is just going to stand as is. Good grief. . . That was gorgeous.
This has been a favorite since Bonnie Raitt released it. Geoff's arrangement is lush and gorgeous. Cesar was not only note-perfect, but also emotionally perfect every second. Layne was right there too. There wasn't a single second that Layne and his micro-expressions weren't EXACTLY perfect. That's hard. Singing harmony it's easy to get into the gorgeousness of the music instead of holding the emotional still-point. But Layne was as credible every second as if he were the one singing every line. His acting skills are beyond. Saw the same in True Colors. Usually we see Layne's comedic timing, but he just NAILED this as a dramatic performance. I've watched this 2-3 dozen times now. The entire performance is extraordinary.
Layne's voice also came through on the harmonies right before Geoff took the melody, and as always, it was like an extra warm hug. I love getting to hear Layne sing.
What songs do you want for Voiceplay to do with Lyane Stein? My suggestion is: I see Fire by Ed Sheeran especially Lyane Stein absolutely will take full lead.
@@deanmarion5477 Great question, I honestly never thought about it, and don't have a quick answer. I did go listen to Fire, though, and I think that is a great choice, I think Layne would shine in it!
@@Aurora-cv5to : that why I definitely this song for them to do
I just now commented about Layne in this and in True Colors, then saw this comment of yours. Great minds think alike... And love Layne too.
Who let those onion cutting ninjas in here?? Seriously boys, this is beautiful. Eli's crazy run in the middle there killed me.
8/21. I AM SO MOVED BY THIS PERFORMANCE AND PERFORMERS!
This great song is from Bonnie Raitt. It's on her grammy award winning album Luck of the Draw from 1991. This is a wonderful version from Voiceplay.
Cesar has the most tender voice ❤
Oh wow, we rarely hear Layne sing. Easy to forget the man is just as good as the rest of the band at vocals.
Glad to find this music because of Omar I want to go see this live.
Moment of silence for the people who can't find this amazing song.
Man I love the deep rich tone Geoff has during this song
So amazing
3:47 YESSSSS GEOFF BASS SOLO. KILLED IT!!!! 😎🔥👍🏻. Beautiful work, top-to-bottom, from everyone!! So much LOVE for VP and admiration for each and every VP member!!
This should have millions of views. Absolutely beautiful arrangement and Cesar really blew me away on this song. Lots of magical sounding chords throughout and everyone sang their hearts out.
It really should have so many more views. I've shared it on all my socials, but my reach is small. Can you help?
Also, can we take a second to talk about how this video is put together? I love the isolation of each member in different rooms in the empty house. It really feels like the aftermath of a huge fight/breakup and Cesar's obvious devastation just crushes my heart
Yes, this, and I'm looking at what room they are each in and thinking of meanings it might add, even if inadvertent on their part. But they are masters of subtle details, so it wouldn't surprise me if there were significance to those choices...
I really hope Bonnie Raitt sees this. That was wonderful.
I love how Geoff always goes above and beyond with his arrangements. Keep it up Mr. Castellucci
Yet another masterpiece of collaboration between amazing musicians. If anyone disagrees, why are you even watching this?
Just discovered voice play and you guys definitely can keep up with pentatonix.
All those beautiful harmonies and high, powerful notes! And yet, Geoff's low runs don't get lost. I heard them all! Gorgeous, all of them!
I love it so much when we get to hear Layne sing!! you all have such beautiful voices
You've already made me love you, you goofballs! 🥲
This is like...like standing in a cool rock waterfall on a hot, beautiful summer day! Cesar’s voice is the water, cool and refreshing, washing over you, and the harmonies are the embrace of the warm sunlight! The other solos are like beautiful stones, shining in the rocks around the waterfall! I know that probably sounds crazy, but that’s how it makes me feel.
What beautiful imagery. Very appropriate. I hope you write poetry, with your way with words.
@@joyfulyes Not as much as I used to. But thanks. I did write a Doctor Who fanfic not long ago. Well, a few years, so pretty long I guess.
A simple arrangement + with 5 amazing voices = A masterpiece
