So Much Contrast in HELLFIRE - VoicePlay (acapella) ft J.None | Reaction Video! - Hudba
Hellfire truly is one of the darker Disney songs from that era. What else come close, I wonder? 🤔
Voiceplay did a Disney villians medley but I can't recall anything as menacing as hellfire
The Black Cauldron also has Hades as a villain. I have not seen it but many people have said that that’s a really dark movie as well.
Definitely, "Hellfire" is the darkest Disney song. Most Disney villain songs are either a bit silly ("Gaston", "Mad Madame Mim") or we get only a little hit of the villain's dark side ("Be Prepared" and "Poor Unfortunate Souls") but in "Hellfire" Frollo shows he is pure evil masquerading as a holy man. It's not magical sea witches or giant crabs singing about being shiny. It's a man with dark intentions that really do exist. Too many of us know women who have died because some man said, "If I can't have her, no one shall." That's why it's so dark... because it's real.
Why is it that I love VoicePlay being silly, but also love this dark side? It was perfect from the lighting to the outfits. I WANT CESAR'S COAT!!!! Geoff would make such an amazing villain. Thank goodness he's a goofball, otherwise we'd all be in big trouble.
IKR Cesar's coat looks like it belongs on a cyberpunk goth monk! 🤣
It's creepy how a calm, sweet, gentle man that Geoff is, can play such a sinister, evil character
And it’s not just a bad guy caricature, but one of the darker Disney villains! 🔥
I really like the way they show the moment Frollo's mask of piety just totally drops after Esmeralda's escape. Great and informative reaction!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 🥰
Just a reminder, Geoff isn’t the only one who can sing bass notes. Eli can and lane can being a beat boxer. So the bass under Geoff’s singing is lane in this song. Beat boxers are able to hit very low throat bass notes (throat singing)
As fantastic as everyone was, cesars guitar is the highlight for me on this one. He does a lot of the synth sound for the various songs and is just so versatile
His guitar definitely sounded quite legit! 🎸
I wish they would make the synth sounds and others that Caesar makes a little more predominant, as they are hard to hear at times.
I get the most out of reactions when the people reacting have some musical training. I had never heard that little stepped intro that you talked about when they all came in slightly delayed from one another. And now I’ll never hear that passage without hearing that as well. So thank you for increasing my appreciation of the musicality of the piece.
This is absolutely stunning. When he starts singing Geoff almost (but not quite) appears vulnerable and then you see his descent into madness. I think it’s interesting that J, Eli and Cesar sing a lot of the lines about the temptations of Esmeralda, the weaknesses of other people, and how it isn’t his fault.
That choral portion when it segues into something suggesting church bells ringing emphasizes the fact that he was a high ranking member of the church. That makes his position even more vile.
That leaves Geoff to be able to voice all the twisted evil of the character. And wow does he pull that off! He blames her, he blames the devil, and he even blames God. And then that switch gets flipped.🔥🔥🔥
I’ve always hated the character of Frollo but found the song to be beautiful and powerful in a very disturbing way. Because they didn’t only present the evil, Frollo almost seems human in their cover .
There is some speculation that the bass line that you hear prior to “burn it” was actually voiced by Layne. He is certainly capable of hitting those lows , and he has not started beatboxing yet.
Thanks, I'm glad you appreciate my little observations! I also discover a lot from folks like you who comment on our reactions, so keep them coming! 🤩
"this song needs such a strong bass bottom"
so they need me I guess KappaPride
You are absolutely correct - VP always requiresmultiple listens to hear all that is happening. Very complex and multi dimensional. Great review .
Thanks for watching and commenting! 🤩
By the way, Tony Wakim is the guard here. He got to hear Geoff call him an idiot. Hellfire is stunning, wicked and completely unforgettable. So glad J None was down for this. He's been promoted and moved from Seattle to Washington DC which makes it easier for him to get down to join VoicePlay.
Nice to see J.None pop up every once in a while… Ditto Tony! 🤩
Past member baritone Tony Wakim was the guard. They pulled him in to be the extra, just because he showed up for work at Patty Cake.
Right place at the right time? 🤣
Wow, you're the only reactor so far who caught Geoff's mean G1 on the first Mari-A 😄
Thanks! To be fair I only caught it the second time around, while editing 😜
😇😇❤❤
❤❤❤
Loved your reaction, thanks! Geoff dropped his Halloween song yesterday....Jack's Lament
Thanks for watching! We wish he released it 24 hours earlier so we could’ve reacted to it at the same time! As it were, we had to record another video earlier today. Stay tuned!🤣
@@ZhenYaoYin normally we say wait until the Patreon role appears. But on this one wait until it starts rolling. There’s an extra little treat.
We keep saying VoicePlay has outdone itself, and then they go on to do just that.
And Geoffs solo Halloween video is equally exquisite.
You need to react to this years Bass
Gang album.
Arabian Nights and Be Prepared is already out and more to come.
PS It was Tony acting the guard.
They up their game every single time; and don’t worry, our reaction to Geoff’s Lament will be up real soon! 😊
So happy to see you reacting to this! I've been watching it from the beginning on Patreon; I had not heard it before. It is so sinister and mesmerizing. I've missed you, and you missed their Drunken Sailor... just so ya know.
Glad you enjoyed it! But we did react to Drunken Sailor, though! 😄 czcams.com/video/4_OuzeGygyI/video.htmlsi=FSXRedYriqlWfB8G
Awesome reaction you two to an absolutely beautiful and powerful song and video.
Thanks for watching and commenting! 🤩
Absolutely earned my subscription. I love how happy and excited you guys are for music. It got me feeling upbeat and happy too!
Not sure if you guys know phantom of the opera. But they did Phantom (a loong time ago) with Rachel potter. I thought It was rewlly good. But i know phantom can be hit or miss. Its very theatrical. And she had amazing chemistry with Tony.
You have a great "bass-baritone" voice yourself. I'd be happy to hear a cover by you 😊
Aww, thanks! Maybe someday! 😛
the bass gang has released 2 out of there 4 new series of videos.. All are Disney related
so far we have Arabian Nights and Be Prepared released... I believe this week they release Gaston and the week after being Friend like me
Thanks for the suggestions! 🤩
i seem to up the drama anymore would make Frollo a pantomime villain and he’s so much darker than that ❤ 🏴
True that! 😈
Really enjoyed your reaction and analysis.
Glad you enjoyed it!! 🥰
AMAZING! 💕
Thanks for watching! ❤
Great reaction guys!! This was just so damned good!! When I watched it the first time, I thought it was Geoff that said "Burn It", but no, that was Layne. And It was cool that Tony got to participate as the guard. Completely Blown away by how epic this cover was!! It has been a long long time since I have seen Hunchback of Notre Dame. And Did you see Cesar briefly playing the air guitar?? lol
Haha yeah, Carrie spotted the air guitar first! 🎸
I don't know about you, but I felt like I was listening to rock music but also an opera with this arrangement. And I don't know if I'm wrong, but I think that the servant who tells them that Esmeralda left, the voice is Eli.
So much passion in this one. Wow. Breathtaking.
So much passion, it’s almost fiery! 🔥
Late to the party, as per usual, but i just have to ask, did you realize you match pitch when you squeal at Eli's F5? It's just for a second but it made me happy 😂
