Tennessee Whiskey — VoicePlay music video

youtube

VoicePlay's fans love to challenge them from time to time, and this was definitely one of those instances. The guys were a little intimidated by the prospect of tackling such a popular and complex tune for their PartWork series, but they rose to the occasion beautifully, providing a velvety doo-wop-style take full of tight harmonies and flowing rhythms.

Details:

title: Tennessee Whiskey

original performers: David Allan Coe (1981); inspired by the Chris Stapleton version (2015)

written by: Dean Dillon & Linda Hargrove

arranged by: Layne Stein

release date: 19 April 2019

My favorite bits:

putting corn stalks around the VP logo on the title card like a laurel wreath (This does deserve awards, dangit.)

the color scheme of their wardrobe, set dressing, and lighting that gives the whole thing a sepia-toned nostalgic feel

Layne holding the beat with laid-back brush snares and high hats

the proliferation of leisurely bell chords throughout the backing vocals

Eli's freedom and agility on the lead for the first verse

the steady simplicity of Geoff's bass line, with the occasional two-octave descending arpeggio for punctuation

Earl's appreciative smile as J digs into the lead melody

J.None settling into the lower end of his range with ♫ "always dry-y-y-y-y" ♫

the echo of ♫ "did-n't waste your looo-ove" ♫ from Eli and Earl

showing off J's falsetto at the beginning and end of the second chorus

Layne adding just a touch of whimsy with a cork pop 🍾 sound before he joins in on the harmonies for the third verse

Geoff finishing off his solo with a subharmonic drop, just because he can

riffing in three part harmony (That is so hard to do well, and they pull it off magnificently.)

that smooth, gentle ending chord from all five guys

Trivia:

The rhythmic and melodic changes in Chris Stapleton's cover of this song were inspired by Etta James's "I'd Rather Go Blind".

When the VoicePlay guys were tasked with singing it, J.None, Eli, and Earl all started brushing up their already impressive riffing skills. Geoff was slightly alarmed when Layne prodded him to do the same, because basses don't usually riff in that way.

The video was filmed at a swanky Prohibition-era themed bar called Mathers Social Gathering. Their pals the American Sirens used it later in the year to film their "Puttin’ On the Ritz" video.

It racked up 15 million views on Facebook in just 3 months.

There is a very cute video on Geoff's Instagram of him rehearsing in the car and little William trying to follow along with dad. (Kathy's driving. Everyone is being safe.)

The cover art was designed by the guys' friend and frequent collaborator, Rek Dunn.

Judging by the YouTube comments, this video was an introduction to VoicePlay for a fair number of people, pulling in a very different demographic of new fans than their Disney medleys.

By legal definition, Tennessee whiskey must be made from at least 51% corn-based mash, filtered through maple charcoal, and aged in new charred oak barrels. And, of course, manufactured in the state of Tennessee.

Some of the boys indulged in a bit of silly dancing on set while they were getting ready to film.

As part of their Patreon behind the scenes video, Layne and Eli tasted some actual strawberry "wine".

This track was later included on VoicePlay's "Citrus" album, which compiled most of the songs they recorded from 2017-19. Because the individual songs had already been made available digitally, that album is exclusively a physical item that can only be purchased at live shows or through their website.

L' arte d'insultare:

D’Annunzio su Marinetti

Cretino fosforescente.

Marinetti su D’Annunzio

Idiota con lampi di imbecillità.

Gore Vidal su Truman Capote

È in tutto è per tutto una casalinga del Kansas, pregiudizi compresi.

Truman Capote su Jack Kerouac

Quello non è scrivere, è battere a macchina.

Oscar Wilde su Alexander Pope

Ci sono due modi per disprezzare la poesia: uno è disprezzarla, l’altro è leggere Pope.

D.H. Lawrence su Herman Melville

Nessuno riesce a essere più buffonesco, sgraziato e sentenziosamente di cattivo gusto come Herman Melville, persino in un grande libro come Moby Dick… Uno sforzo immane. Ma c’è qualcosa di finto. Ed è Melville. Oh Dio, quando il solenne asino raglia, raglia raglia!

Charles Baudelaire su Voltaire

Mi sono annoiato in Francia – e la ragione principale è che tutti assomigliano a Voltaire… il re degli imbecilli, il principe dei superficiali, l’anti-artista, il portavoce delle portinaie, il padre Gigogne dei redattori del “Siècle”.

Vladimir Nabokov su Fëdor Dostoevskij

La mancanza di gusto di Dostoevskij, il suo monotono trattare di personaggi sofferenti di complessi pre-freudiani, il suo modo di sguazzare nelle tragiche sventure dell’umana dignità – tutto ciò è difficile da ammirare.

William Faulkner su Ernest Hemingway

Non risulta aver adoperato mai parola che costringesse il lettore a consultare il dizionario.

Ernest Hemingway su William Faulkner

Povero Faulkner. Davvero crede che i paroloni suscitino forti emozioni?

William Faulkner su Mark Twain

Uno scribacchino che in Europa non sarebbe stato considerato nemmeno di quart’ordine, e che ha agghindato qualche vecchio schema letterario di provato successo con la giusta dose di regionalismo per affascinare i superficiali e i pigri.

D.H. Lawrence su James Joyce

Dio mio, che minestrone è James Joyce! Nient’altro che avanzi, torsoli di citazioni bibliche, e tutto il resto cotto nel brodo di una deliberata, giornalistica lascivia.

Virginia Woolf su Aldous Huxley

Completamente rozzo, immaturo e oppositivo.

Friedrich Nietzsche su Dante Alighieri

Una iena che scriveva poesie sulle tombe.

Gustave Flaubert su George Sands

Una muccona piena di inchiostro.

Elizabeth Bishop su J.D. Salinger

L’ho odiato [Il giovane Holden]. Mi ci sono voluti giorni per leggerlo, una pagina alla volta, con cautela, imbarazzandomi per lui a ogni frase ridicola. Come hanno potuto permetterglielo?

Mark Twain su Jane Austen

Non ci guadagno nulla a stroncare libri, e non lo faccio a meno che non li odii. Spesso ho provato a scrivere di Jane Austen, ma i suoi libri mi fanno diventare matto a tal punto che non riesco a nascondere la mia furia al lettore; perciò devo fermarmi ogni volta che comincio. Tutte le volte che leggo Orgoglio e Pregiudizio mi viene voglia di disseppellirla e colpirla sul cranio con la sua stessa tibia.

Henry James su Edgar Allan Poe

Provare entusiasmo per Poe è segno di uno stadio di pensiero decisamente primitivo.

Gertrude Stein su Ezra Pound

Lui descrive villaggi. Sarebbe eccellente se tu fossi un villaggio, ma nel caso non lo fossi, allora non lo sarebbe.

Thomas Bailey Aldrich su Emily Dickinson

Una reclusa eccentrica, sognatrice, di un villaggio fuori mano del New England (o di qualunque altro posto del mondo) non può impunemente disprezzare le leggi della gravità e della grammatica. L'oblio è in attesa nelle immediate vicinanze.

Bernhard su Heidegger

Ridicolo filisteo nazista con calzoni alla zuava, ciarlatano, ruminante, imbecille delle Prealpi.

Giacomo Puccini su Richard Wagner

Non si può giudicare l'opera di Wagner dopo averla ascoltata una sola volta, e non ho nessuna intenzione di ascoltarla una seconda

Lord Byron su John Keats

Ecco qui la poesia di Keats piscia-a-letto, e tre romanzi da iddio sa chi… Non più Keats, vi supplico: scorticatelo vivo; se qualcuno fra voi non è disposto a farlo, lo dovrò fare io in persona: non c’è posto per quelle schifezze idiote nel genere umano.

Céline su Proust

Sì, sarà anche bravo ma vorrà ammettere che scrivere 300 pagine per dire che lo vuoi prendere nel culo sono un pochino troppe.

Authored by Allan Stein via The Epoch Times (emphasis ZeroHedge)

Carl Chinn, 65, is a man of deep faith who thought church was a place to go to find peace—until he locked eyes with an angry gunman 28 years ago.

On May 2, 1996, a man carrying a rifle, a handgun, and claiming to have explosives walked into the Focus on the Family ministry in Colorado Springs and took four hostages.

Chinn was one of those hostages, and his experience changed his outlook on the vulnerability of churches from that day forward.

Before then, “security wasn’t even in the back of my mind,” he said.

The suspect, a construction worker, carried out the attack four years after he injured himself while building the ministry’s new 256,000-square-foot facility.

He filed for disability at the time, but his insurance ruled the injury was due to “horseplay” and substantially cut his benefits.

It took four years for the man’s anger to reach critical mass—four years to come back to “exact his form of justice,” Chinn told The Epoch Times.

“He wanted to go out suicide by cop.”

During the hostage situation, the man shot into a wall before police were able to arrest him.

“That was my wake-up call,” Chinn said. “That incident changed the trajectory of my life.”

It also wasn’t the only time he encountered an armed intruder in church.

In 2007, Matthew John Murray, 24, killed two people and wounded two others as he opened fire at a church youth training center in Arvada, Colorado.

Murray evaded law enforcement and later that afternoon he shot and killed two more people and wounded three others at the New Life Church in Colorado Springs before he was fatally shot by a security team member.

Chinn was there on the day of the shooting. He knew one thing about the gunman: “He hated Christians.”
