This was definitely the most modern-sounding version of Drunken Sailor we've ever heard! Do you agree? 🤩

@christinestromberg4057 10 ай бұрын

The drunken sailor is Matthew Bucky Buckner, a very early member of VP when they were still called 4.2.Five. He does sing but is mostly a voiceover artist and entertainer at Universal Studios in Orlando.

That actually is a real razor, but Kathy spent time blunting it towards a pavement so that nobody would get hurt.❤ Such a great version and such a fun video! I love their humour!😂

Our drunken sailor is Bucky who used to be a member of 4:2:Five before they became VoicePlay. His singing voice hit some snags and he went to Disney World as a voice actor. He also recently did a couple of minis with VoicePlay. When Geoff suggests that he will carve his heart out (with a wooden spoon no less), Eli comes back with a British accent. This pairing is a tribute to Alan Rickman in Robin Hood.

The "Hey!" was also used in Hoist the Colours, remember? Usually it's Layne that writes Geoff's part so low, this time he did it to himself. This was so much fun to watch, the Behind the Scenes was hysterical. What amazes me is that the vision was in Geoff's head, but they did not practice that blocking until the day of the shoot. They are absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!

Thanks for the reminder! We knew it sounded familiar 😄 The fact that they didn’t rehearse the blocking just shows how great their chemistry are together !

Bucky was also the one responsible for the choreography Zhen tried out in Monster Mash. Fans called it The doll from.hell during premiere. Geoff replied her name was Clara and she had feelings....

@@ZhenYaoYin ...Because you don't know them, likely. I shave with those razors since 41 years ago, and they are soooo sweet, there's no multi-blade that can possibly be THAT gentle. ❤ But I understand they can be dangerous, which is why I would expect it to be a prop... 😢 To recover the edge of a razor blunted that way, if possible, will require so much work that you'd probably better buy a new one. 😞

Geoff complains that a lot of the songs people want then to do are repetitive. So he’s gotten very good at writing bridges to break them up. And all of them feel like they belong there (even if we don’t think we’ve ever heard them before!)

Great reaction. This was so much fun. I believe the “hey” That you’re remembering is the one that they did in Hoist the Colours. Jose was in that one as well so that may be why it sounds so familiar. I think that the whale and longboat that Layne is playing with are a nod to the cover of the Wellerman. That’s why Eli is shaking his head so frantically and looks so distraught when the whale finally catches up. Eli really got into the part he was playing. He looks absolutely delighted that he is the monster when Geoff is going to carve his heart out… With a wooden spoon. That is a nod to Alan Rickman in Robin Hood. Bucky was also in the mini of the Candy Crush song as the deranged mall shopper that decided to pop in. You can see him in the background bopping along. He is so funny! I hope we see more of him. He has his own brand of silliness to their special kind of dumb. He seems to hang out in the mall😂.

DRUNKEN SAILOR Yes, the drunken sailor is Matthew "Bucky" Buckner, a member of the group back in the 4:2:Five days. As you mentioned, he also appears in the mini I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) and in Candy Caravan Escapade. He was also the choreographer for Geoff's Monster Mash video. It was a real razor that Kathy dulled for safe use in the video. We're told "The doll's name is Clara and she has feelings." Geoff indeed wrote the music and lyrics for the bridge. Fun (or creepy) facts: The lyrics for Drunken Sailor have a darker meaning than what they appear to be. Putting him in the long boat can either mean sticking him in the boat lashed to the side of the ship until the swaying and heaving causes him to be sick and sober up, or to actually put the longboat into the water with the unfortunate pirate inside, having it trail behind the ship at the mercy of the ship's wake. Shaving his belly with a rusty razor might induce tetanus or at least a nasty infection. Sticking him in a scupper (the drain holes on a ship's deck) with a hose pipe on him means to lay him, face up, with his head in a scupper, then to hose him down with cold, disgusting bilge water from the bottom of the ship, Putting him to bed with the Captain's daughter actually means to tie him down on the deck and lash him with a cat-o-nine-tails. Geoff's lowest note was a D1 subharmonic at about timestamp 1:25.

I should point out that sailor does not equal pirate, as you seem to call the drunken sailor a pirate. Pirates are sailors, but most sailors are not pirates.

@@catwhowalksbyhimself I used the word "pirate" at one point because that is the type of characters being portrayed in the video. These punishments for drunkenness happened on Royal Navy ships as well.

@@MiladyMacabre There is nothing in this portrayal that says pirate. Arguably the accent, but even the stereotypical pirate accents are based on sailor's accents, because pirates were sailors.
