VoicePlay Stand By Me - thoughts/commentary

You really can never quite tell what kind of video you're gonna get when Voiceplay uploads something new; sometimes it's a warm hug in musical form, and this is one of those times! <3

I gotta start by giving some appreciation to how Geoff looks absolutely lovely in this one! The necklace is on full display, as is the silver-white in his hair which is *chefs kiss*, and I definitely love the blue floral shirt! (10/10 would wear it myself). Honestly it reminds me a little of the shirt he wore in Whiskey In The Jar, which is kinda funny because that was 2023's November upload, and this is 2024's November upload!

But like also everyone is definitely styling in this video. Cesar with the subtle eyeliner (we stan), Layne with that cool white shirt (genuinely he looks great in it), Eli with the leather jacket, and Mykal with that denim jacket and purple shirt that's unbuttoned about as much as Geoff usually has his! 😄

Okay, main visual thoughts out the way, time for musical thoughts!

Geoff absolutely delivered with the bassline, just as I knew he would 💜

I'm not the greatest at remembering most of the actual music arrangement after my first watch-through of a VoicePlay video, though perhaps it's harder when I already know the original song and thus my brain is still attached to what I already know. But basically the first watch is just for the vibes, lol. And so a lot of these thoughts are from after an additional watch-through!

As I said when I talked about Be Prepared, Mykal was a founding member of 4 The Love, which then became 4:2:Five, which then became VoicePlay. He only stuck around for a few years I think, and then went to go pursue a stage/theatre career iirc, but while he was part of the group, he was "Tenor 1", i.e. could literally sing higher than Earl (Earl became Tenor 1 after Mykal left, and they brought in a guy called James May as Tenor 2).

I'm atheist, but damn, I'm pretty sure Mykal took us to church with this one! Well done my guy!

Actually I'm not quite done with all my visual thoughts - I just realized that when Cesar sings the repeated "stand by me" bit at the end of the first verse (after the "no I won't be afraid" bit), he looks down at Mykal and Eli and then up/back at Geoff and Layne and smiles at all of them awwwwww

I see VoicePlay decided to do a repeat of Lion Sleeps Tonight in that we got a truly lovely section of Layne on lead vocals, followed immediately by Geoff on lead vocals in a 1-2-whammy! (I swear they do it deliberately, lol 😅)

"I won't cry, I won't cry. No I won't shed a tear..." Well I might!! (I didn't, but this part definitely had me a little bit 🥺, y'know? (but in a nice way of course!)

Not sure what sort of technique (if any?) Geoff was using for the end of his "stand by meeeeeee" line, whether it was a growl or soft subharmonic or just 'regular' chest voice, but it sounded really nice!

Honestly Stand By Me isn't a super long song - like when I've sung it to myself on random occasions, I've thought that maybe there's a verse or something that I've forgotten, but no, it really is that short and simple (not that that's an inherently bad thing, mind you).

Actually the VoicePlay version is longer than the original audio track by roughly 30 seconds, not counting the credits at the end (just going off how long the Patreon early access video is). And of course they found many cool and interesting ways to make the song their own! E.g. I liked the "ad-libs" that Mykal was doing at the end (like "you don't have to do it alone"), and I also liked the build from no percussion, to very subtle/quiet percussion, to more of a powerful beat as the song reached its climax.

So this is a Layne arrangement! Honestly was not sure - I know he arranged Be Prepared, so I guess it kinda makes sense that he did this one as well so they were both ready to go at around the same time? I still wouldn't have picked it (and genuinely wasn't sure until I got to see the YouTube video description) but very well done!

So yeah, lovely sweet song, lovely harmonies, and by the time you're reading this post, this cover will already be on my Voiceplay/Geoff Spotify playlist, undoubtedly! And now we just wait to see what December will bring! (Or late November for us Patrons, I guess). Until next time!

hc: mike makes el breakfast in bed every sunday and it always has eggos with it!

Awwwwww, yes!!! He loves the look of absolute delight on El's face whenever he wakes her up and she sees the food he made for her.

He'll always come into her room quietly, set the food down on her desk or something, and then just lightly brush her hair away from her face and kiss her forehead and then her lips gently and just be like, "Hey, El, time to wake up. Breakfast is ready." And she'll lean more towards him but isn't quite awake yet and he'll press his forehead against hers, laughing slightly and be like, "You gotta get up, silly." And she'll finally wake up at his laugh and see him and just automatically smile and kiss him and they're just so soft and sweet, I can't handle it 🥺🥺🥺

Then he'll pull away and she'll sit up and he'll bring over the food and her face just lights up so much, even more than it did before and it automatically makes him feel so proud and appreciated and loved because of how much joy such a small thing brings her and he'll sit next to her as she eats and she'll insist that he eat some, too so that he's not just sitting there ("El, it's fine, I already ate something at home before I came." "But Mike, you made all this, you should enjoy some of it, too.").

And everytime, without fail, it always makes her so happy. Even when she realizes that it's a weekly thing, that he's gonna keep doing it, it still always makes her so happy because of his dedication to it and what the deeper meaning behind it is and just overall because she didnt grow up with a lot of that kind of thing at first, obviously. It definitely becomes a permanent part of their routine well into the future 💜💜💜

Thank you for sharing your headcanon with me!!!! I absolutely love it so much, as always!!! Mileven owns my whole heart and little thoughts and headcanons about them always make me so happy 😌😌😌 Hope you're having a great day/night!!!! 💜💜💜

Giada: Papa! Papa! *holds out arms for a hug*

Angel Giorno: Aww! Look at our little Giada! She is such a sweetie! Look at our little baby! Baby!

Haruno: Hey, don't forget about GioGio! He's our baby too! Gia is precious, but so is GioGio!

Angel Giorno: *smiles and ruffles Haruno's head very gently* Of course, Haru. He's also our baby.

Haruno: *beams and looks at Giada* Gia looks so excited today! What do you think she saw?

Teen Giorno: I am just saying that at this point, it's very use-

Devil Giorno: Oh no you don't! Don't even think of finishing that sentence!

Teen Giorno: Alright, I won't. Oh, look! There is Gia. I wonder what's going on.

Devil Giorno: That's what I thought. Oh. Hey. What's with you too? Oh! Gia!

- Outside -

Giorno: *smiles* Yes, Gia?

Giada: Papa! Does your hair have magic?

- Inside Giorno's mind -

Haruno: *eyes sparkle* Do we?

Teen Giorno: Er...well...

Angel Giorno: Technically, we do.

Devil Giorno: Not in our hair though.

Awwwwww I've been crying over how sweet this was bb, my heart ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗

Giorno: *picks her up* ummm not really fiori, why do you ask?

Gia: mama was looking at a picture of you with black hair and zio Nara said it became golden with magic!

Giorno: *laughs* ah zio Nara and mama-

Bria's voice: Gia sweetheart, where are you? *sees her with Giorno * gives them a hug*

Giorno: so, magical hair?

✨Thoughts throughout the episode✨

Lol the sass from David

Oh no our relationship is broken (I’m sorry I’m just no that invested in their relationship but it is sad I don’t like seeing Michael suffer)

I just assume David is gonna die because not enough people have died in this show lately or generally…

Awww they are a very sweet family

Awwwwww yay a proposal 💜 yay hopefully he will not die

Lol Harry

Lol I love that sass and all of those family scenes AMAZING

the grant family are simply *chef kiss*

Okay fuck now I’m invested and I want this to work out and for him not to die

I love themes in 911 episodes they are so well thought out and well written

I feel like they’re planning to create a spinoff of the hospital and maybe the PD too

Awww what a sweet kid

That das kinda looks like a older Avan jugia

I’m sorry are you dumb? Why would you not check to see if something is holding back the door???

I kinda like that it is an accident and not a bomb

I like that we know exactly what happened from the start

🤞🏼buddie scene🤞🏼

I don’t understand how the 911 dispatch works

poor babies

Awwwww buck holding a baby ahahahahahahahahh

And giving the baby to Eddie!!!!!! Ahhahahah

I’m sorry but they know what they were doing putting Eddie next to buck with babies this is amazing to me

Awww he will protect his sister

Poor kid seeing a dead person and taking care of a baby

Brave stupid men(Rupert and David and buck and Eddie)

Oh no !!! What are they really killing a kid and a baby????I really hope not!!! Maybe the kid did something smart or read the room number wrong or something idk

Nooooo Rupert wtf

Aww buddie…

Yay he is alive yay

Yay smart Eddie

I love that buck was confused (like damm my boyfriend is smart)

Yay I’m so happy the kids are okay

I still don’t like claudette

why didn’t he try to find Bobby before? That doesn’t make sense to me

I hate that they killed Rupert but it make sense for Ravis story

Awwww he said husband

Lol he was proposed by his boyfriends ex wife husband wow

I love Bobby

That is a sweet group moment

Awwwwwwwwwwwww so sweet I like it when characters hug like that

Awwwww they are engaged 🥰🥰🥰yay

I don’t like her I just don’t

Lol an engagement watch 😂😂I really like that personal small detail to them

Note: I was planning on writing the next chapter for Tale as Old as Time, but I also wanted to write something for @sugarglider9603 and @ask-spiderverse-virgil / @galaxy-lilies-main Spiderverse AU so I picked the one-shot first. This is based on this post (And a couple others) along with “Turns out Being a Superhero IS Actually Really Gay!” by @hi-i-love-u-bitch

Also, there’s a section in Spanish, you’ll want to translate it. Enjoy!

Warnings: injuries, mentions of death, unconscious, self-deprecation, crying, a small bit of cursing, arguing

Pairings: Prinxiety and Logicality

Keep reading
