So much fun to see how much Geoff got you with this one. Did you notice that the 2nd Geoff (white sweater) kept looking around confused at all the transitions and then just shrugged and went with it? And the 4 stockings at the end was a fun touch. I think this might be my favorite solo arrangement he's done so far. The perfect amount of lows and highs to keep you on your toes. Can't wait to see your response to Voiceplay's new Christmas one. Lots of fun stuff in that one for you to react to and analyze. ✌️❤️🥕
Geoff is amazing. This cover has shot to the top of favorite Christmas songs. I loved the reaction Mortius. Keep that beautiful smile. Please react to VoicePlay cover to The Chipmunk Song!!!
This is going to sound like nonsense but anyway... I always thought that I felt better after/during watching your reactions but wasn't sure why. Today I've been given a blood pressure monitor and (for s&g) I did a reading before and one during this reaction...my blood pressure and pulse rate both dropped pretty significantly... I think this is proof, Mortius, that you are good for my health! 💗😜
It had to be tedious to film this, with all the pauses for the wardrobe changes and cards/gift, plus decorating the background in stages... but those smiles! His joy is infectious. This is my favorite arrangement of this song, even more than the VoicePlay version from 2014 with Tony, which Geoff also arranged and sang lead. But in this version he was able to put in more bass. Like chocolate and bacon, can never have too much bass.
That G1 also caught me off guard too😅 I was able to catch the premiere for this and once I got to that part I literally said "Wtf" out loud because I was so not ready for it but I loved it at the same time xD. Honestly, this is my favorite cover of the song because it's just so good. Thanks for the reaction as always💜I'm looking forward to the one on Saturday with the special guest👀
😂😂😂 I could see you anticipating and the "okay," "okay" and I was talking to my phone, yelling, "It's a set-up!" I love your reactions to Geoff. So much fun!
Still, my favorite thing about the video is the great big grin that each of them have at least part of the time. Most of his recent pieces have been dark/ broody/heartbreaking that it is fun to see him smiling!!
LOL - "Support the original: DON'T FORGET THIS LINK!" it says here... I just love watching your reactions, and having Mason toss in his tidbits from time to time is a hoot. Season's Greetings to you and yours. :)
@@officialmortius Would you please please please do a reaction video of Lauren Paley's cover song Ave Maria, the full version ? As you may know from seeing her as a featured vocalist in Voice Plays cover of Hide & Seek ( Ding Dong ). She is called the Stairwell Siren. Her cover is the most beautiful ever. I have been begging for other reactors to do this but no one has.
@@officialmortius please please do a reaction video of Geoff's new cover " Till Then " for a super low bass done in a slow & smooth with a Jazz feel to it. He just released it today 12/29/22
This one is my absolute favorite of his right now. So I was SOOO looking forward to your reaction. I’ll update if I have other things to say. :) So glad you felt the same about that head shaking G1. SO GLAD YOU LOVED THE TENOR SOLO AS MUCH AS I DID. ITS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE PART OF THE SONG. it’s so gorgeous. So is he. YOU DIDNT TALK ABOUT JEOPH’S BASS SOLO WHEN HE DIDNT GET A CARD. (Clone order for this one(l to r) is Goff, Jeff, Geoff, Jeoph; Daryl from GRitS isn’t in this one sadly. I miss him.) I absolutely adore the ending. This is my absolute favorite song he’s put out and favorite Christmas song.
He did a lot of that "keepin it traditional" then....dang.....Thank you Sir Mortius for such a wonderful, and entertaining reaction...this one just amazes me to no end.
Absolutely loved seeing your reaction to this, Mortius. You always make such amazing analyses and I love hearing your musical knowledge input. Also, did not catch that similarity between this one and Monster Mash that Geoff did. I do have a video recommendation for you. Home Free did a cover of American Pie with the original artist (Don McLean) joining them for it. It is an amazing cover and brings some of the most perfect closure to the song imaginable. I would really love to see your reaction to that.
Mortius Voiceplay released their Christmas video a few days before this one. I noticed on your channel you haven't reacted to it. The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late). You'll absolutely love it. Love ya 💖 Happy Holidays 🎀
Yep, it's official. This is an invasion. I thought VoicePlay and Geoff had Halloween and Pentatonix had Christmas. But, the former seem to be annexing Christmas right before our very eyes... And I love it! 😂
Great reaction and analysis as always! New outro rules suck 😡. Miss all the fun and interesting information you would add at that point. Looking forward to seeing your collaboration. Thank you!
For years, this song has made me cringe. But I love this arrangement of it -- it's more playful and bouncy, and less overtly sentimental than the Bing version most try to emulate (only Bing can do Bing, and imitators are embarrassing).
It really sounds like it's mainly based on the Drifters arrangement. He just doesn't have as high a range as their tenor does for the 3rd verse, so he stays an octane lower.
Geoff says “yeah” and/or “c’mon” in almost all his “solo” videos. It’s fun to watch for it.
Usually just before something ridic impressive.

He was also patting his body like “What the heck just happened?” when that white sweater appeared!
whatever made you think Geoff is human? We all know he is an Alien from planet amazing vocal range! ❤🏴
That ain't a planet where he's from. That's a black hole! 😂
Geoff is amazing. This cover has shot to the top of favorite Christmas songs. I loved the reaction Mortius. Keep that beautiful smile. Please react to VoicePlay cover to The Chipmunk Song!!!

Nov. 9th The Haunted Mind by Nathaniel Hawthorne | Narrated by Geoff Castellucci.
Still, my favorite thing about the video is the great big grin that each of them have at least part of the time. Most of his recent pieces have been dark/ broody/heartbreaking that it is fun to see him smiling!!
I really feel this one.
And what a beautiful smile it is. :)
it’s the most wonderful smile of the year!😄😍🎄🏴❤️
@@gilliandrysdale5306 Perfect description!!!
I gotta say, that was some of your best bass attempts I’ve heard, whatever your trying is working 👏🏻👏🏻
I love this song too. Overplayed or not, it’s still a favorite. Geoff’s arrangement has, without a doubt, jumped to the top of my list for this song.
LOL - "Support the original: DON'T FORGET THIS LINK!" it says here...
I just love watching your reactions, and having Mason toss in his tidbits from time to time is a hoot. Season's Greetings to you and yours. :)
AHHH! I did it again?? I blame being sick 😭

I absolutely adore the ending. This is my absolute favorite song he’s put out and favorite Christmas song.
I LOVED your reflex reactions to the different parts of Jeff's surprises. His voice is such a treat, no matter what he does.
Geoff dropped some short story narrations in Patreon. Very nice. So excited to see this song drop.
I so enjoy your reactions! You make what I already love fabulous. 💖 Good call on Monster Mash. You were right. Merry Christmas 🎄 🎅
Hey Mortius, I love your content, and I’d be thrilled to see you react to both Geoff’s High and Dry, and Omar Cardona’s performances on the Voice.
i love how you did some nice subharmonics at 11:54
He did a lot of that "keepin it traditional" then....dang.....Thank you Sir Mortius for such a wonderful, and entertaining reaction...this one just amazes me to no end.
I like that the 2 Geoff's on left as you are looking at them are high voices while the ones on the right have the low voices.
We all know its coming. But you never quite know when. Love it
Thank you so much for another amazing reaction to Voice Play. I just love it when you get so excited over a cover by Geoff.

The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late).
You'll absolutely love it.
Love ya 💖
Happy Holidays 🎀
Always a good day when there is a new video with an enthusiastic Mortius. I am learning so much thank you.
Yep, it's official. This is an invasion.
I thought VoicePlay and Geoff had Halloween and Pentatonix had Christmas. But, the former seem to be annexing Christmas right before our very eyes... And I love it! 😂
Good old g1 Geoff producing those ocktavish bass g1 and lower with presence and gusto
My new favorite Christmas song.
Watch the background.
This was super. Thanks!! Sometime I would love to hear you cover Celtic Thunder, they do a great job of Gaudete.
Great reaction and analysis as always! New outro rules suck 😡. Miss all the fun and interesting information you would add at that point. Looking forward to seeing your collaboration. Thank you!
Love your reaction videos to Geoff
Thank you! Rock on 🤘🏻🎄
Hey Mortius, there's a DON'T FORGET THIS LINK in the description, just thought you should know :p
(chants into existence) PETER AND JEN! PETER AND JEN! PETER AND JEN!
HI mortius!!!! Awsome video as always mate!
Great reaction as always 😉
Desde Argentina... Hola Mortius!!! Que placer escuchar tus reacciones... me encantan!!!! Un abrazo gigante!!
Great reaction Mortuis. Always enjoy watching you. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas.
I thoroughly enjoyed this reaction video 😂💜
Great reaction Mortius.
Love ya ❤️
Happy Holidays 🎀
Geoff’s a secret weapon I swear
Bing Crosby would be proud.
I honestly think you may hold the record for most pauses of any reactor.... seriously.... LOL
11:55 you hit an A1 subharmonic by accident I think 😅😂
You look more like Mortar-ius. Nice background. 😂
I mean, "chesty" IS a word, but I don't think it means what you think it means ;)
🤣🤣🤣

From a Non-Patron to all Patrons, can we get Mortius to react to Oh Come All Ye Faithful by Voctave this Christmas?
Did you forget Ghost Riders?
New short Outro rules? What happened to the cosy chat and wrap-up analysis 😢
CZcams penalising reactors again?
Always 🤷♂️
I hate when I try bass techniques PPBS!! (that's post peanut butter sandwich for you uneducated heathens 🤣)
Come on Mortius
I love Geoff Castellucci but i m' waiting for Christmas voiceplay song ( release 01 December)
Please 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
🎄🇭🇺♥️
