I don’t know about hugs but Geoff could sing lullabies for hours and I would be happy. Love that voice. Love all the guys but I’m a sucker for the deep voices.
We need to talk about VoicePlay's incredible arrangements for a second. I feel like too many professional groups nowadays are all doing very similar things and I find myself scrolling past a lot of them when they pop up because I know what to expect. But whenever I see that a new VoicePlay vid is up, I click immediately because I know that I will be surprised and impressed every single time. They are so creative and it definitely does not go unnoticed to this fellow a cappella arranger.
This striped down version of this song feels like the most consoling and warm hug, like the kind of hug that can heal the wounded inner child of a grown-up ❤️
One of my greatest memories: I was on a field trip and I was sitting alone. I had started to cry and the boy in front of me heard. He started to sing this song. There was utter chaos everwhere else on the bus as people talked or danced. His voice singing this song was what brought me back up. It was what stood out. I love this group with all my heart because of all of the spirit they put into their work. It is a beautiful thing, how much they care about this. They dont know the effect they are having
Ikr! It's always like that! Usually it's like 90% about Geoff and 10% about other guys... Every f**king time! Even when the lead part is amazingly sung by other member in comments people talking only about Geoff's bass/low notes!!! This is so annoying😡😡😡 It's not like I hate him or something, i think he is truly a grate bass! But every time I see it I feel so bad for other guys T_T We need to appreciate every member equally!
Злая Оленина My friend, people are allowed to have opinions. Your statement is, in fact, incorrect. I see PLENTY of comments praising other members of this group, or offering compliments to the group as a whole. Every member of VP is beyond this planet talented, and you’re allowed to have your opinion. I’m just saying, it’s not just people ignoring others. It’s people offering compliments to people they love and people wanting to share their opinions, like you did
Yes, and that echo by Earl right after, "saw you laughing" that's the part of this song where my eyes tear up. As with many VoicePlay covers, I like this version better than the original. (Before I heard of them I never liked covers)
I know how important it is for Layne to rock out as a vocal percussionist but please feature his beautiful singing voice more. This song is amazing and your arrangement is gorgeous. Thank you for this.
I was having THE WORST day today. I got to a point where I didn’t even want to be alive anymore. But then I saw this in my recommended and realized it was a cover I haven’t seen yet. I am in tears. You guys have literally saved my life. The words are so comforting and your voices make me feel so comforted and loved. Thank you so much.
You with the sad eyes Don't be discouraged Oh I realize Its hard to take courage In a world full of people You can lose sight of it all And the darkness inside you Can make you feel so small But I see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors are beautiful Like a rainbow Show me a smile then Don't be unhappy, can't remember When I last saw you laughing If this world makes you crazy And you've taken all you can bear You call me up Because you know I'll be there And I'll see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors are beautiful Like a rainbow If this world makes you crazy And you've taken all you can bear You call me up Because you know I'll be there And I'll see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors True colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors are beautiful Like a rainbow
And this is exactly why I prefer VoicePlay to most other Acappella groups - everybody gets to be a part, there's no focus on anybody. It just feels amazing to have everybody participate. Thanks for another great piece. Greetings from Germany. (:
Wow, in all the years since the original came out, I don't think I've ever heard this distinct a new arrangement of True Colors! A lot of times it's hard to have an unbiased reaction to something that deviates so much from the form of a childhood favorite, but I have to say, this version is stirringly beautiful. I love how each of you got the chance to shine as a distinct voice and blended in different combinations with the others, and of course, as I'm sure many others will have commented by now, I was delighted to have this chance to hear Layne's singing voice.
Chills in the first 5 seconds, fighting back tears by 16 seconds. Layne's mood at 3:19 is my whole mood during this song! ❤️❤️ So happy to hear more of Layne's amazing singing voice. This arrangement was heavenly and very emotionally moving!
lorianngie ikr! I fancy Layne’s voice over the others his voice is heavenly and I fancy Geoff’s voice as well in my opinion they have the best voice out of the group
This has got to be the most beautiful cover I ever heard of this song. Love that we get to hear Layne's soft voice, sweet timber. Love how it blends so well with the others, specifically the harmony with Earl. And OMG J.None's timber; it gives warmth to that song in a way that shouldn't be allowed 😝. You have me in tears every single time I listen to this one gentlemen. Thank you 🥰
I was waiting for them to start with the background music/instruments (you know what I mean), but its so amazing that they didnt and just kept it almost empty as it made their voices even more angellic, with the harmonies filling the entire arrangement.
I love this version. Hauntingly beautiful arrangement, well done Layne. It's always fun to hear Layne get to sing, and have all of you show off such tight beautiful harmonies.
Not really a high note, but it sounded impressive because despite this song being a more calm, serene song, Geoff was able to casually put in the transition to still sound smooth and add a nice layer of color on the sound
First time hearing this, so beautiful. I especially enjoyed where each member seemed to be overcome by the song and sat quietly for a moment before rejoining. I know that it was mostly just how the music was arranged, but the facial expressions and body postures really gave me that sense of them just needing to take a moment. Gorgeous.
When this came out, I was not in the mood for it. Now I was. At the first time I only listened to it and somehow I started to cry at some point. The second time I watched the video while listening. It's fits perfectly. To my mood and to this song. Thank you.
I so love when the smaller a capella goes five ways. The blending is so much more colourful. Don't get me wrong, beat-boxing is great and completes the mix, but when the song is slow and meaningful, it's like fireworks in my mind. To be honest, in a song like this and the way you have arranged it, the bass is all the beat I need. Magnificent. (I might even join Dana and hug Layne myself)!!!!
I only discovered Voiceplay 2 months ago and have been obsessed with them ever since. This cover is just so beautiful. And Omg! Layne's look at 0:45 literally broke me.
The harmony on this one is incredible. I love everything you guys do (generally end up liking your version better than the original..), but there's something magical about the quiet simplicity of this one.
I was not emotionally prepared for that, I am almost in tears now(I know you guys said "no crying" in the premiere chat, but I can't help it). Layne, we need to hear you sing more often. You sang beautifully, you all did. I hope you guys had an amazing 4th of July, and don't forget to let your true colors shine.
Glorious! “MmmmmMMMMmmmmm this is delightful to my ears and brain!” I still would really love to see VoicePlay working with Jon Cozart and/Peter Hollens. Y’all make my ears happy.
So happy layne sang a little in that song and I thing Geoff and layne has beautiful amazing and incredible voices hope they both can keep get getting parts to the songs . You guys are amazing as well ! Keep being amazing voiceplay ☺️
WELP, I cried. I don't cry at songs, and not only is this what breaks the dam, I ugly cried twice, the second even uglier than the first. Apparently this was the aural hug I desperately needed today.
I've been crying all day because 2 of my 3 cats just crossed the rainbow bridge. This song makes me feel better, but it makes me crying even harder at the same time too 😭😭😭
OUTSTANDING! Love the close harmony. It is joyful hearing Layne singing. Each one of you is necessary for this beautiful interpretation! BRAVO! 100 out of 100!
I haven’t been able to listen to this song without crying since I lost my mother in law to pancreatic cancer 9 months ago as this was played at her funeral, your cover of this was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and you actually made me smile hearing it
I am so so happy Layne got his part! He has such a gentle shy voice I want to hug him
Dana Ondráčková Layne gives the best hugs. He’s very huggy.
I wonder if a guy who does VP most of the time gets rusty when it comes to singing
@@GeoffCastellucci Ok now I want to do it for sure! I hope he don´t mind.
@@okonh0wp Well, he does most of the arrangements (including this one) it would be hard for him NOT to sing along with these heavenly songs
I don’t know about hugs but Geoff could sing lullabies for hours and I would be happy. Love that voice. Love all the guys but I’m a sucker for the deep voices.
This song can literally put the entire world's issues on hold for just a peaceful moment
Use for good, in my vision for world peace
Probably not for January of 2020
@@shawnv.9004 I'm back in July 2020- this song still puts the world on hold.
omg yes i agree
🤣
Geoff has the most beautiful voice I've ever heard in my life.

Perfect
Layne did the arrangement on this one.
You are so right. The best arrangements and the best follow through on them all. Their maturity and continuity is showing thru.
Yes! Their arrangements and videos are more complex and creative than other groups
Voiceplay, Home Free, and Voctave have such amazing accapella arrangements.
This striped down version of this song feels like the most consoling and warm hug, like the kind of hug that can heal the wounded inner child of a grown-up ❤️

This comment made me tear up :(
Now they know...
Awww that’s so sweet! I hope you’re doing ok💖💕
🥰
Yeah right. Nice made up story
The last chord of this song is wonderful!
I like Layne's voice percussion, but I also like Layne's singing voice!
ことのは like oh my god what!!!
I always get excited when they let Layne sing
Seriously, go check out his interview with Charismatic Voice. He sings great, and he talks like he's about to break into song at any moment.
@@elishamorrison1652 same
I love Layne! ❤ I love them all! Layne and Geoff hold a special place in my heart…❤ I absolutely love his voice!
Everyone’s great but I feel like Eli doesn’t get appreciated. His voice at 1:50 was like an angel coming to earth.
That's actually my favourite part. Eli's voice always blew me away ♥️
Ikr! It's always like that! Usually it's like 90% about Geoff and 10% about other guys... Every f**king time!

Ooooh...Layne is singing😍😍 Love it....

Hoping you are feeling better today 💙 united loving these incredible voices I send hugs and greetings from Italy 🇮🇹🧡💙
Glad you're still around! Sending good vibes from the Netherlands
💜 to you
It’s amazing to hear Layne sing words in this! His voice is beautiful 🥰
Is nobody gonna acknowledge how well Earl harmonizes in the higher notes of the song
LAYNE MY MAN YOUR BEATBOXING IS AMAZING. and your singing voice sends chills down my spine. So beautiful.
You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
Its hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small
But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow
Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy, can't remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there
And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there
And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors
True colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

Lovely to really hear Layne's voice in this one ❤️ Earl absolutely smashed the feeling of this song, made me so emotional xxx well done guys
Thank you voiceplay I now know what a hug sounds like

Get over that... be a trooper.
Well damn, I just got to watch a drum kit sing. This world is full of wonders
Yes Layne singing again😍and its a great song for Geoffs bass🔥
Omg Layne yessss we want more of Layne's singing voice 😆
"Which singer is best in this group?"
May as well ask "which color of the rainbow is most beautiful?"
Choosing my favorite Voiceplay member is like deciding which of my kids I love most.
This is a beautiful comparism.
I think geoff is the best
Omg even with cheap earphone I still can hear Geoff's voice CLEARLY. You guys amazing ❤️
Buy yourself bass headphone.
This has got to be the most beautiful cover I ever heard of this song.
Love that we get to hear Layne's soft voice, sweet timber. Love how it blends so well with the others, specifically the harmony with Earl. And OMG J.None's timber; it gives warmth to that song in a way that shouldn't be allowed 😝.
You have me in tears every single time I listen to this one gentlemen. Thank you 🥰
Love it when we get to hear solo Layne!
I was waiting for them to start with the background music/instruments (you know what I mean), but its so amazing that they didnt and just kept it almost empty as it made their voices even more angellic, with the harmonies filling the entire arrangement.
Finally!!!! I miss Layne singing so much! Such a good voice. Well done everyone!
OUTSTANDING, Gentlemen! Always a pleasure to hear Layne singing; 5 stars out of 5! Great close harmony! FABULOUS!
I love this version. Hauntingly beautiful arrangement, well done Layne. It's always fun to hear Layne get to sing, and have all of you show off such tight beautiful harmonies.
You guys should do a mashup of songs from The Greatest Showman! You are amazing and I love hearing your new music. ❤️
OUTSTANDING! Each of you is necessary for this beautiful interpretation. Love hearing Layne sing. Excellent close harmony! BRAVO!
I love that Layne got the chance to sing this time and it was so sweet
Geoff's transitioning from high to low at 2:45 was so good! And the end note 3:26 was so unexpected! But awesome! Great job guys!
Perfect
Not really a high note, but it sounded impressive because despite this song being a more calm, serene song, Geoff was able to casually put in the transition to still sound smooth and add a nice layer of color on the sound

Through 2020 and now 2021 and having gone through Covid as a family, we come back to this song. Thank you so much. What you do matters.

Amazing arrangement. Glad to see Layne singing, he has such a pure voice.
Oh hell yeah, Layne has a solo! 💞 I love this cover so much!! 💗💗
This broke me. Absolutely beautiful.
Layne killing it with his singing! Love this arrangement!

Get over that... WHAT A BABY.
This song always hits me in the feels regardless of who is singing it
PRIDE. Really use this song for good uses, instead different meaning please.
It's awesome to hear Layne sing ftom time to time. He has amazing beats, bit his voice is just as good. Get him to sing more often please
Glorious! “MmmmmMMMMmmmmm this is delightful to my ears and brain!” I still would really love to see VoicePlay working with Jon Cozart and/Peter Hollens. Y’all make my ears happy.
AWESOME! Love the close harmony. Each individual is essential! Great to hear Layne, Eli, Earl, Geoff and J.None singing together! A CLASS ACT!
Voiceplay the best of the world.
I love Layne's voice.
That high note at 0.30 had me crying. So beautiful. ❤
'I love you' makes a difference when Layne sings it with his soft voice
Wow guys. This is magnificent and I too loved hearing Layne get his moment to show his beautiful singing voice.
wasn't prepared to be fighting back tears tonight but here we are, you five stealing my breath with your beautiful voices like always
OMG. The harmonies in this made me shiver with delight. I hadn’t seen this before, but it one of my new favorites!
So happy layne sang a little in that song and I thing Geoff and layne has beautiful amazing and incredible voices hope they both can keep get getting parts to the songs . You guys are amazing as well ! Keep being amazing voiceplay ☺️
Perfect
I’ve been Voice-Played. This makes me cry and it’s so beautiful. Thank you. Perfection
I love you guys. Beautiful voice Layne and damn Earl you killed those high harmonies
I've always loved the meaning of this song, I'm glad to have a version that I actually enjoy listening to.
I have to cry and smile at the same time 💜
Nice to see Layne Embracing his voice
Layne! ❤ My daughter heard the song from the other room and was like "Wait! Whose voice is that?"
WELP, I cried. I don't cry at songs, and not only is this what breaks the dam, I ugly cried twice, the second even uglier than the first. Apparently this was the aural hug I desperately needed today.
It’s like they took the feeling of the Trolls rendition and took it up 1000 notches. So freaking beautiful!
I've been crying all day because 2 of my 3 cats just crossed the rainbow bridge. This song makes me feel better, but it makes me crying even harder at the same time too 😭😭😭
So sorry for your loss. Hugs.
Out of all the incredible Voiceplay songs, I think this has to be my favorite. The arrangement is brilliant and it is truly beautiful
As good as all their stuff is this had, IMO, the most pleasing harmonies - just inspiring.
This is so beautiful. Can I just post this everywhere? The whole world needs to see this
Make sure for the right people to listen this... Gilbert Baker, maybe.
Oh my goodness you guys stole my heart away. Thank you for singing this song.
It's great to hear Layne sing! What a sweet voice. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ awesome arrangement.
OUTSTANDING! Love the close harmony. It is joyful hearing Layne singing. Each one of you is necessary for this beautiful interpretation! BRAVO! 100 out of 100!
I LOVE LAYNE'S VOICE
I like your version a lot. I'm happy to hear Layne sing.
This hit me way harder that I expected.. Thank you guys guys for for this!
I had to watch this a few times to just gather the courage to post a comment. This cover made me cry a few times. Thank you
Wow. Absolutely amazing.
Layne and Adam Rupp from Home Free have lovely, gentle tenor voices. It is a real treat to hear Layne out from behind the percussion kit.
2/16. I've never heard this before! The harmony is so beautiful!
This is beautiful. It pulled at my heartstrings.
One of my favorite songs gets some Voiceplay love. 💜💜💜
I cannot stop listening to this song from the day it came out, the cords in the song are truly marvelous
2:35 is my favorite part ahhhhhhh
I am in love with song I do not know how much I replayed this video
One word to describe this. BEAUTIFUL ❤
2/24. I SO NEEDED TO HEAR THIS! BEAUTIFUL!
Hope you’re prepared for feels, people. VP brings them ALL with this one!
EXCELLENT! Love the close harmony. Each of you is essential...the whole is greater than the parts. BRAVO!
I haven’t been able to listen to this song without crying since I lost my mother in law to pancreatic cancer 9 months ago as this was played at her funeral, your cover of this was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and you actually made me smile hearing it
It is a crime that this video doesn't have millions of views.😤❤️
