There is only one Earl Elkins and he is not exactly human. Do NOT try to smash YOUR skull-meat with an axe... it will hurt. - Hudba
I still love how everyone is looking at everybody else's transformation and yet nobody's batting an eye at Geoff becoming a vampire like, "Yeah that's normal for him"
Basically xdd
geoff is a vampire confirmed.
I think he’s a warewolf and I think layne is a vampire EDIT!!!!: nevermind you are right! Layne is a devil thingy 😂
Killer queen
maybe he's already one before?
Everyone: *becomes a monster*
Eli: *gets several chins*
Yes
true
The true monster: diabetes
Nah, he just loses his whole neck while his face elongates
I guess some people have a different idea of what's monstrous.
Everyone else grows hair horns changes skin color or loses hair
Geoff: gains teeth 4 and a awesome jacket
Don't forget the eyes, pale skin, and sunken cheeks! But yeah, minor changes compared to the others.
@@RedT...TheOriginal.NotANumber Also a widow's peak to his hair.
@@singingwolf8997 Sharp eyes! I didn't notice that change. First spotted at 3:00.
@@RedT...TheOriginal.NotANumber Lol, I may or may not have just been staring at Geoff the entire time to notice...
Geoff was actually lowkey terrifying as the vampire tho
lowkey huh. i see what ypu did there
The rest is the sexy factor
Terrifying isn't the word that comes to mind..
Yeah more like AWESOME
I am not sure I was terrified, thought 🤔 those were slightly different feels I got from him 😁
Funny little foreshadowing that was probably unintended. Geoff was singing the line that Oogie Boogie sings in this song, and then Geoff became Oogie Boogie this year. Amazing
Well, Oogie Boogie has a deep voice..it's kind of the natural decision.
Seen this dozens of times, and just now noticed a little more foreshadowing: Oogie's face on one of the pumpkins.
For those of you who are curious, you can see this pretty clearly at 2:37 if you pause there
Well that kinda makes since just now, but I can't wait for the spooky month!
@@Netdawg-jf3om 2:38
Geoff: "I am the one hiding under your stairs..."
Me: "I'm good with that tbh."
~
Now I wish I had stairs in my house 😭😭😭
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha same
I want such monster under my bad ❤️. I have no stairs 😂.
Geoff: "I am the one hiding under your stairs..."
Thousands of women: Hello, Joe's Carpentry? I need stairs built in my bedroom. Never mind why. Just DO it.
Everyone just becomes terrifying monsters while Geoff just becomes hotter
dying here yes
Is that even possible?
@@adelaidereitschmied4400 yes it is when you are voice play
YES BAHAHAHAHAHA
Who’s GEOFF
Everyone: AAH WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME!?
Geoff: Oh, HECK YEAH!
He got the best monster
Hekkre debatable I would prefer to be like the behemoth or something, and Geoff woulda been a dang cute sally
Let’s be honest
Who hasn’t wanted to see him as a vampire
Funny, I had the same reaction....
I've this weird little headcanon that this is actually what Geoff does every other Saturday. He's just confused that the others are there this time.
Imagine how many breaks they had to take to do all this make up just to do the transformations of them into monsters
same with "Emperor's new Clothes" by P!ATD
@@itz_galaxyfam6626 my thoughts exactly.
They probably had to take a couple of hours, heck maybe a day just to film it and edited it in.
My guess is it probably was done through a week's time to make sure that they got everything just right.
Almosy like 69
NO ONE is talking about Layne so I am here to talk about Layne:
Layne is EXTREMELY talented and looks adorable in his makeup with that nose
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk
He looks even more adorable dressed up as Dr Finkelstein in Kidnap the Sandy Claws
Did he kinda turn into Lock from the movie?
@@MyRageness I think he just turned into the devil, also from the movie
Same here, and is it just me or did you guy also love his little run too
They're all adorable. I'm so glad we have stuff like this in life
2:47 Geoff is low-key giving me Elvis vibes with those moves back there.
3:36 ELI!!! The longer that note goes on, the more it sounds like he's howling.
Don't get me started!😡😡😡😡😡💛
Can we just talk about how freaking cool the costumes and makeup were!?!?! Oh my goodness!!!
Yeah, looks so realistic
Boys already a monster
What costumes and makeup?! Is it not real? D:
Yea
3 m.
N
BMW xvn l Zara
4 of them: Scared to death
That one guy: *Living his best life*
Which guy
@@TrevanR8501 Probably Geoff
Nah, it was Eli - he was totally digging that extra chin!
Totally Geoff
Banana Man bro it was definitely Eli look how happy he was
At 0:18 Geoff didn’t actually eat the candy so.... I guess the spooky dimension is just where he hangs out?
Yup. Just a normal Day of the week at this point. Lol 🙃
I'm trying to figure out who dropped theirs. (Or at least it sounds like it.)
Are you blind? He clearly eats it
@@aaronjames3228hate to break it to you but he switches it to the other hand
everyone talking about Geoff but Eli has such a cool and nice voice
All of them are really talented guys, and has amazing voices! ❤️.
But, come on, you know, this is Geoff 😀.
Everyone else’s voice changes: Oh wow, that’s creepy
Geoff’s voice ‘change’: Ok seems legit
Yeah
Eli, Earl, J, and Layne: *Ah shit what's happening to us*
Geoff: *YEET*
i kinda wanna hear geoff say that
He know about it!!!
Everybody's talking about their voices but let's also appreciate how much effort they put into thos costumes/make-up .Dang. I'm really in Love with Geoff.
darn near 3 years later and I still laugh hysterically when Eli dead pan shoves Layne to the ground after eating the candy.
Lol
I find it amusing how Layne manages to look like he's still chewing while beatboxing
"Trick or treat!"
"And what are you dressed up as, sweetie?"
"Diabetes."
"That's not a costume..."
"But it's scary though."
you got that from Brandon owen correct?
Righto.
yeah
DIABETEEEEEEEEEEES
I dressed up as W.D GASTER
Geoff with fangs is doing something for me.
Hrist
Ohhhh yes he’s doing lots of things for me! It’s just really sexy
I love me a vampire
What the fuck has I stumbled into
Don't forget the eyes
Now if they had put Geoff as Edward it would’ve had a chance of being a box office smash!
Geoff taking the bassline at 2:44 is amazing. He's every bit as skilled at being in the background as he is as a frontman, which speaks to his insane level of skill and professionalism!
The expression on Earl's face when Layne axes him is priceless. They are all extraordinary in this. Layne's little silly run while they circumnavigate the pumpkin stack was perfect and helped define his character. Just amazing...as usual.
Fr layne just said'ok yk what imma let my rthinking win' XD
I love how Earl and J-None's voices start to change but Geoff is still Geoff
I ambiguous well it’s Geoff
EVERYBODY SCREAM!
They all seemed to have some sort of voice transformation then there was just Geoff in the background and all of a sudden like 3 completely different voices used.. either way really freaking cool to have that transformation though
I think Geoff's deep voice was his new voice
I ambiguous I thought his voice change was meant to be on the skeleton jack line or how weird it went for “everybody scream!”
I saw a comment saying this is why you dont take candy from strangers. IF I HAD A CHANCE TO SING AND DANCE WITH VAMPIRE GEOFF I WILL TAKE IT.
Same! Along with becoming my choice of monster.😉
Hell, while people might be scared to turn into a Halloween monster, I would be exicted to turn into one, especially a Werewolf.
Yes a million times yes
Yoo bro the comment ur talking about is above your comment
Same. I would also probably be something rather demonic so it would be great.
I like that Geoff embraced his transformation alot earlier than the others so he changed quicker. 🎃
Eli, your voice control in this one is nothing short of phenomenal. What a rare treat!
Geoff always pulls the nightmarish voice so spectacularly
Ikr! How does he go so low though?! XD I'm really confused on how he can go that low without the use of a voice changer XD
@@EmmaBrown001 Probably because he's a bass singer? Just a thought...
@@tuzori18sage he is a bass voice of among them
tuzori18sage he classifies himself as a Baritone with bass range. He explains it in a video on his channel.
"Everyone hail to the pumpkin song"
That voice tho 😤😤
Firman Firdaus yes
right?
Absolutely! I have such a huge respect for his voice, its gorgeous
Geoff poking Layne’s nose is so funny to me 🤣
I think Eli’s transformation was remarkable but also his voice was amazing. All of these men are tremendous talents
No one seems to be talking about Eli straight singing gorgeously for like 14 seconds without breathing? 3:36-3:50
@@aaronrodriguez6330 I agree with myself
It's not much surprised for me, It's surprised me but I literally can do that but only for 12 seconds, Well, He's still great :)
F4LL3N Animator wowsers well this isn’t about u is it???? It’s about MY BABY ELI!!!!
It's my favourite part
he took a breath at 3:49
Can I just mention how amazing Geoff looked as a vampire. The look really suited him and his voice. It was amazing.
The fact that Layne can beat box AND slay on the violin is just amazing. It's already tiring enough for them to play the violin. Another great arrangement 😊
I love all of their little voices they do for this song. Just adds so much to this song.
they definitely had to do the voices, after all the original has a whole town singing. XD
Please please please do a cover of ‘Friends on the Other Side’ from the princess & the frog 😍😍😍
Stephanie Melato great idea!
Your so right
Yes
Yesssss
What about Thomas Sandler version?
Layne is Pinocchio
Earl is cold
Eli ate too much food
J. None is bigfoot
Geoff is.. Geoff
J. None looks like the purple mattress Bigfoot
Earl looks like Yondu of guardians of the galaxy
Geoff is Geoff, Heff is Heff, and Hcheff is Hcheff.
@@hazelaurelia1623 is that a reference to jeff Dunham?
@@emotionallyunstableandfill2497 Yup. Nathaniel is quoting Peanut. Well played, Nathaniel!
Lol I love how Geoff actually sounds like the original voice actor of the creature under your stairs.
Can't believe no one's talking about the rendition of Grim Grinning Ghosts at the beginning that's in the background. So haunting and sets the tone so well!
Geoff is on my list of people who could bring me out of a deep sleep, and I wouldn't be mad
GEOFF: this is totally normal
Everybody Else:WHAT IS GEOFF DOING!?
Enjoying it obviously
*I absolutely love Eli’s voice in this*
I love that he sounds dead-on like the Mayor too!!!
I'm kinda late to the VoicePlay party ('discovered' them with My Mother Told Me) and have been bingeing over the last couple of months. I'm blown away by their talent. On this one, everyone was incredible as always - but shout out to Layne for controlling that pace and making the whole thing irresistible with that awesome drumbeat.
Fell in love with Eli's voice. His range at the end was amazing
I can't believe he was able to not only hold a tone that long but change tones
I'm glad somebody mentioned this
That's because of the extra chin, lol...
Well seriously, Eli is a wonderful singer. I love his voice. He's very versatile.
If we're discussing Eli's range, let it be known that he can go down to around an A1 (sadly, he admits to having a diminished accuracy for singing in tune in that lower register)
I loved that buy from eli and rewound this loads just ti hear it over and over
My son has declared J-None, "The happiest looking Werewolf ever."
Yea u got that right.. Because the werewolf is a curse not the person behind it
I don’t know quite why, but reading your comment made me go “Awwwwwwwww!” and feel all warm and fuzzy...So adorable!
The kid at the end trying not to smile is just the best thing ever lol
Honestly, I think that little smirk was spot on.
I JUST noticed the kid's eyes changes color! had to blow it up on my new monitor to see it!
@@cpribula YOOOO I NEVER NOTICED THAT!!
I know I'm late chiming in on this, but I have to agree that Geoff looks great. Also, who's the kid at the end? He just stares at you and that's it.
I think I saw somewhere that the boy is Layne's nephew.
Pretty typical bass stuff, turning into a vampire and then pretty much just vibing with it.
Yup, totally typical. 🤣🤣🤣
Geoff: Oh no! Anyway 🧛🏻♂️
Geoff should consider keeping the vampire look...
Yeah, for October 31, the hair absolutely topped the outfit! Definitely the best looking Vampire since Dracula (no disrespect to you, Dracula, you look good too but we'd better let Geoff try it out at the theme parks for a bit!)
I met Geoff before at a concert they performed he is really nice
Yeah, not gonna lie, this didn't hurt my man-crush on Geoff at all.
Heckin agreed
I completely agree
Can we just talk about how Geoff managed to sound amazing even with those long vampire fangs in his mouth??? Those things are hard to even talk in. Let alone sing with!!!! Also props to J. None for doing it too!!!
unfortunately they probably prerecorded the vocals before the actual song, most music videos do this.
Its probably pre-recorded, however, I must say, it is easier than it looks to sing with vampire fangs in. I'm typically a mezzo range but I can do bass somewhat and I performed with vampire fangs in a few times. Long story.
According to Peter Barber (another bass with a YT channel, who does reactions to the videos) ALL the vocals are pre-recorded. That's how they get such complex sound. Geoff is singing AND doing basslines because they record the solo as one track, then the bassline as another track. Same for Layne's insane beatboxing - he can do multiple tracks.
@@Eileen_in_Vegas Be Our Guset!
the makeup is phenomenal here, i love how you guys did more of a tribute rather than straight up trying to recreate the characters.
Everyone: turning into monsters because they were out of candy
Eli: the reason they are out of candy
Are we gonna talk about how they were murdered for not having candy?
Never take candy from strangers
They weren't murdered were they?
What did you expect? Trick or treat...
@@NightClawprower I guess that was the trick part
I mean trick or treat was a fantasy movie
Can we pause with the Geoff comments for a second and take a moment for Eli's end note 😍 okay now go back with saying how hot Geoff is ;)
The makeup is just insanely awesome! Eli's face at 3:24 - my first thought was "Do NOT take a bowl of chili from him. That's the face of a man with human body parts in his freezer. And under his bed."
You know, I followed Voice Play for a while now and mostly for Geoff tbh. But man I fell in love with the voice from Eli at 3:36, so clean and beautiful
Theory time!
That kid is actually the spirit of Halloween and was punishing the guys for not giving him candy by transforming them into monsters and condemning them to an eternity of Halloween... How I envy them.
But hey, thats just a theory! A MUSICAL THEORY!!!
Mr. ToonChow LOL! Good one.😹
Except for Geoff for whom this is probably a Tuesday. :-)
Isn’t that the plot of the movie Trick R Treat
... THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THE MOVIE!
I'd let Vampire Geoff in my house anytime. Lol
Oo, That got dark.
Wtf
He can hide under my stairs any day ;)
Yeah, but would you let him back out? ❤
Love Geoff's bass runs 2:39 - 2:51 and him in the background at 2:48 :D
I saw oogie boogie song and was like yeah they're pretty good, then i saw this and was sold..... I love geoff's vampire voice, the "whisper fry"
I would love it if we got a cover of Hellfire from Hunchback led by Geoff. I feel like he has the perfect intensity for that song.
They did a snippet of Hellfire on their Top 10 Disney Villain Songs
VirgoGoddess90 Peter Hollens does an amazing version of it. Nit in a deep bass voice, but it’s gorgeous nonetheless. And his “Be Prepared” from The Lion King is amazing
@@DravenGal I've heard the Hollens one too, its amazing
Good news! :D
2:36 Earl's smirk is just the best
This is one of the few songs that calms down my 3 week old baby when he has a bad tummy! He loves it!! Youngest voiceplay fan!!
Totally amazing for the entire group! Makeup, transformation while still singing very smoothly and effortlessly!! Love it!!
Same
It’s been playing in my head, like an ear worm too😄😆
This rendition _NEVER_ gets old!
Oh my stars!!! Peter Hollens, PTX AND VoicePlay! INSANE!!!!
A Syrdal it’s like my birthday.... or yours and I just got the present as well...
@@ebs_demorgenster Right? XD
Yeah. Good stuff
I just realized that in the beginning Eli's wearing a rooster costume, and Earl cow costume. Which reminds me of their Chicken Song...
To be fair, I'm sure it would have been hard to find clothing with gum trees on it... 😂😂😂
@@lisalivesay9084 yes 😂😂😂😂😂
OMG - I just realized that Eli's "Mayor of Pumpkin Town" character has heterochromia? Their attention to detail (audio and visual) is just the best!!!
Trop forts les garçons, des idées plein la tête, des voix magnifiques, de l'humour à foison, j'adore ❤
Something about how he says "Well that's just fine" is just perfect, and I have no idea why.
This is brilliant. This song doesn't just involve singing which they are great at but also insane voice modulations across a wide range of pitch. Hats off. I love you guys.
Also, Geoff beats Edward Cullen anyday everyday
I was waiting for someone to bring up Twilight.
He could also put Lestat in his coffin forever.
yeah but do you think j.none beats Jacob black
Yes I do
Can we just appreciate how beautiful the blue guy’s voice is at 2:01?
it really is
That’s earl
He is, or was, like this I miss Earl 😭
Earl Elkins Jr.
@@jomaroliveras8864 I only joined this community recently, May I asked what happened to him? He was one of my favorites? I originally came here for Geoff and his voice lessons, but fell in love with each of their different talents and add-ins. Sorry for the rant, just curious.
Geoff looks really good with those contacts ngl
Halloween's over and I still can't stop having this on repeat
Same
Same
It's that time of the year again
you aren't the only one, i was (still) listening to it in june, so.
Today is Halloween in 2019. I promise we havent stop listening to this!
i feel that geoff got the coolest costume
Eli's voice was incredible!
Sooooooooooooo many people think they're so amazing at this Song. Very few actually are.
Your group? Actually IS incredible! THANK YOU!! for such an epic treat! This is incredible in EVERY way! I would love to see this performance in person someday!
Best tribute for this Song, I personally feel 🖤🖤🖤🦇🦇🦇👏👏👏
Geoff giving y'all 1600's sexy vampire realness! Love it!
Me a year ago: wow a cool Halloween song def on loop.
Me now: ah shit, here we go again
Same here.
I can honestly watch their videos over and over and over (add a few more “and overs”) and each time I see something new. I just never get tired of these guys and their voices! 😁
The vampire was definitely having the most fun
Geoff did look like he was having fun. But so did Layne (the beatboxer, red costume).
02:43 love how they just all accept their transformations at that part
Honestly Geoff looks really good with just the eyes lol
The reactions of the boys for the transformations
Earl: 😨
Eli: 🤨
Geoff: 😏
Layne: 🤷🏻♂️
J: 😟
Yup cause someone knows how many fangirls he Just virtually slew 😂
I can't see eli's emoji
True
@juice box Earl is the bearded guy who loses his hair. Eli is the guy who holds out that last long note. Geoff is the vampire bass. Layne is the beatboxing devil with an axe. J is the rather bouncy werewolf. Hope this helps!
@juice box Ahh, don't worry about it, I couldn't remember whose names were whose for a long time either :)
New to this band and cant deny that Elis end note is absolutely outstanding and defieds the law of breathing. But whoever plays the werewolf, i love his "in our town of Halloween" tone at 2:12
The werewolf person is J. None!
He also played barrel in "Kidnap the Sandy Claws"
He also has played others roles that I can't remember lol
3:39 Gotta love how long he could sing those notes on that one breath!
Love seeing the transitions too.
I just absolutely
Love 🧡🎃🧡 this
Halloween song!
My younger son has Peter's version stuck in his head, he loves it but it annoys him while at school trying to concentrate, lol.
1:57 😂 I wish I knew whose idea it was to do those two voices, reminds me of two characters from Family Guy, lol.
I am LIVING for the makeup jobs in this. The gradual transformations are so cool. I especially love the werewolf makeup, and his way of moving and acting under it. Amazing work, on all fronts.
Can we get a "Behind the scenes?" The make up in this video is phenomenal!
Yes! Behind the Scenes, Bloopers, ... Just give us everything you've got, we need it for reasons! This is amazing!
@@Rainbow_Pirate they have behind the scenes of this on patreon. You have to pay for it tho. about $10
ikr
Basically, unless you're Geoff, never forget to buy way too much candy for Halloween
At 3:00 I'm AMAZED at how much Eli sounds like the mayor from the movie
Imagine meeting voiceplay while trick or treating. I would cry.
I'd probably pass out
@@Rumpelgrls same here
same
I would scream and try not to cry
goddamn that Geoff guy with his deep demonic voice... nohomo but ITS AMAZING
Me: I don't think Geoff's hair compliments his face that well.
Geoff: *becomes a vampire*
Me: ... I take it back. Geoff looks amazing.
Bro took trick or treat to a whole new level 💀
2:52 “but we’re not mean”
*SO ACCURATE OMG*
It was really cool to see how all five of them got a good opportunity to showcase their unique talents for this theme. They transformed a classic Danny Elfman composition into a literal transformation on screen, and vocally. Every voice changed countless times, and it's stuff like this that really highlights what they can do. I feel the same way about Moana tbh.
the bass line starting at 2:40 just hits the spot every time
Don’t y’all think this channel deserves a lot more than it has?
At least a million subs, a billion views total, and much more
Recently hit 1M!
Just waiting for the thirsty Geoff comments💓
Princess Destiny saaaaaame 😂👌🏻
I'm here for the same thing, also because I feel like an idiot for not noticing this at all until now.
I mean, in fairness, it's Geoff
omg a ptx and a voiceplay upload BOTH ABOUT THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS AND ON THE SAME DAY WHAT LUCK IS THIS
The absolute greatest luck around!!!!!!!
Exactly what I was gonna say!
I was just thinking the exact same thing! I was listening to PTX’s song when this notification came up :)
Exactly my thought this morning!
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Love how everyone turns into a super campy silly playful monster except Geoff who somehow transforms into the vampire version of Christopher Walken's Hessian and is here to haunt your nightmares.
These costumes and the fun they're obviously having makes me want to rewatch the Halloweentown movies and I mean that as the highest possible compliment.
I absolutely love how the background music in the very beginning is the same as the beginning music to grim grinning ghosts and then it morphs into a different tune after. Love it
I’m not sure if it was intentional or not, but it’s also very reminiscent of the “Haunted Mansion Holiday” at Disneyland, where Jack Skellington takes over the Mansion and tries to make it more festive.
