"I See Fire" can be heard right at the end of the 2nd Hobbit film, "The Desolation of Smaug". Ed Sheeran pretty much nailed this one, I'm just putting a lower spin on what was already basically perfect. Thanks for watching!

The original was the song of a bard. A bard's lament for the desolation to come. This is the song of a warrior: A warrior's resolve to stand with his brothers and look the dragon in the eye. Fearing only the oblivion of being forgotten. Hoping that there are those who will hear and remember. 🔥

I survived the California wildfires of 2017, 2019, and 2021. Ed Sheeran singing this never made anything happen for me, but hearing this cover suddenly I was back in those hills, trying to drive away from a wall of fire that to this day I think looked exactly like a golden snake travelling sideways down the grass. I can smell this song. Honestly I think the deep bass cover is way truer to the feeling of that. Call it moving to say the least! Thank you for this.

[@gangliominion5910]

Fun fact, the reason for this working, its the deep voice. I'll explain, the infants ears work months before birth. He can remember. After birth, this new world seems foreign and not as comfortable, the deep voice sounds like the muffled sounds an infant hears in the womb. Same way holding a newborn and bobimg them up can stop them crying. The later example simulates a mom walking and the way the infant would bob up and down in the womb.

[@davidcrowder2966]

@@tReadYTall of his videos are him and him alone. He has incredible range. He calls himself a baritone bass, and can produce subharmonics (a singing skill where you actually sing a certain note but it drops it an octave) for his lowest notes, but can go into tenor range pretty well too.

[@ColtonRMagby]

If they redo the Hobbit films, Geoff should be the voice of Smaug. His deep, booming voice is perfect for the role. This song was already good, now it's on a whole new level.

This will probably be the dumbest comment you have ever received so I truly apologize. But this song cover has impacted me more than I've ever truly realized. I was very very very close to doing something to myself that if I failed I would never recover from and I was listening to music and this cover came on and for the first time in so so long I felt like I was calm and I listened to every work and i understood everything I heard and honestly I have never cried so hard in my life. Idk why but it hit me like train and after thinking about it I've felt better than I ever have in my life. We all go through the fire. It just depends on how we come out in the end and how far we let the flames burn us. And I thank God every day for this. Again I'm sorry for how corny this is but fuck I haven't ever felt like I did when I first heard this

Whether or not you feel like a failure to something, you have saved hundreds. You have saved more people than you believe. You have affe ted the daily lives of hundreds of people's, and been a part of thousands. Take your life in strides. You are worthwhile. Even if we never meet, lock eyes, touch, or speak face to face. I love you brother. And I know damn well that you are loved by many more people than me. Whether or not you feel cold an dead inside. You have life in you. And you have fight. And you will keep fighting to survive as we all do. Your life is worth the battles you must suffer through in order to live it. I hope you have gotten better as time has passed. And I hope you take my opinions to heart. You are loved. And you are worth every breath you draw. You are amazing. Keep killing it brother.

It was fun playing identify the dwarf while he sang. From left to right: Kili with his bow and largely beardless, Bofur with his fingerless gloves, hatchet, mattock and curly mustache, Fili with his braided mustache, slightly lighter hair and dagger, and then Thorin with his beard, hair beads, key to Erebor and Orchrist at hand. Also the clear inspiration to Mirkwood in the staging. The attention to detail in the video is just the cherry on top to the delightful sundae that is Mr. Geoff Castellucci's singing!

[@huldradraco]

Geoff's wife Kathy did an amazing job with the costuming and props!

[@myssbehaven]

Thorin is the one that hit me hard.

[@ForrestMystic]

I wondered if that was Bofur! I'm filled with nerd glee that I correctly identified the dwarf that wasn't one of the Line of Durin! 😊

[@Aeryo_o]

At July, a week before my birthday, I had a motorcycle accident. My father were driving and I've been projected head first on another car. If the car wasn't there at this moment, I would have hit the ground and I won't be able to post today. During the choc, I had this song in my head playing again and again. Because the pain in my body was litterally fire. il felt fire in my body, also in my soul to fight to live, fight for my life. This song helpt me. I remember the moment I first wake up in my legs with the chorus, so powerful it was. It endend with the final "fire" when I was standing tall, all alone. I'm proud of this moment, proud to be alive and you helpt me to reach that point. I want to say thank you !

Lyrics: [Intro] Oh, misty eye of the mountain below Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke Keep watching over Durin's sons [Verse 1] If this is to end in fire, then we should all burn together Watch the flames climb high into the night Callin' out, Father, oh, stand by and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountainside high [Verse 2] And if we should die tonight, we should all die together Raise a glass of wine for the last time Callin' out, Father, oh, prepare as we will Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountainside Desolation comes upon the sky [Chorus] Now, I see fire inside the mountain I see fire burnin' the trees And I see fire hollowin' souls I see fire, blood in the breeze And I hope that you'll remember me [Verse 3] Oh, should my people fall then surely, I'll do the same Confined in mountain halls, we got too close to the flame Callin' out, Father, oh, hold fast and we will Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountainside Desolation comes upon the sky [Chorus] Now, I see fire inside the mountain I see fire burnin' the trees And I see fire hollowin' souls I see fire, blood in the breeze And I hope that you'll remember me [Bridge] And if the night is burning, I will cover my eyes For if the dark returns, then my brothers will die And as the sky's fallin' down, it crashed into this lonely town And with that shadow upon the ground, I hear my people screamin' out [Chorus] Now, I see fire inside the mountains I see fire burnin' the trees I see fire hollowin' souls I see fire, blood in the breeze And I hope that you'll remember me And I hope that you'll remember me And I hope that you'll remember..

My two favorite moments of the song: 1:20 ‘raise a glass of wine’ (the run), and the harmonies on ‘for the last time’ 😍 - I'm just melting 1:54 ‘now I see fire’ - the fire crackling sound and the piano, gorgeous! but the whole arrangement, vocals and video are just wonderful! ❤

[@DBXander00]

At this point I've watched this vid several dozens times. And only just now, after randomly checking comments, did I realize this is all Geoff! I was even annoyed that the other singers weren't credited in the details. I wanted to see all their work. Turns out I already have lol.

[@DracoInduperator]

The bass on this man gives me shivers down my spine. I absolutely love it!

[@elizabethhamblin4926]

It floors me that he's able to sing in the bass range and the tenor range, and every range in between, all in the same song. That's just so unusual - and his pitch is mindblowingly good. I can't sing worth a damn but I have excellent pitch and even slight deviations grate-and there's no grating in here. And the super-low notes are CLEAN. That's what is so monumental about his voice. There's no wavering or grinding, which you hear when someone is reaching too far for a note. He makes it look & sound so easy!

[@susanfulbright4898]

Not only was the range of voice amazing but you captured 4 different people singing. Mannerisms and voices themselves. It didnt sound like the same person in all the dfferent octaves. The timber changed as well making unique individuals. Wow!

[@sarahg2062]

At 4:17 Geoff drops the floor out with that note! Insane the vocal talent of this man. 🔥🔥🔥💙💙💙

[@gargoyleGala]

The lightning change to red halfway through the song... Beautiful. Genius

[@robertpage9507]

I love how the arrangement embodied the feeling of a brotherhood united in defiance yet resigned to their fate. Simply beautiful.

[@sandraf.108]

Mir fehlen die Worte! Seit ich I See Fire Das erste Mal gehört habe, liebe ich dieses Lied. Aber dieses Arrangement ist einfach fantastisch! Diese ruhig Kraft, die das ganze Stück trägt ist ein Traum. Aber vom Original habe ich noch nie so eine Gänsehaut bekommen. 🥰 Vielen, vielen Dank Geoff für dieses Meisterstück. 👏💖🌹

[@YDNTR]

Kann ich dir nur zustimmen!

[@fittersitter]

In der Tat eine überzeugende Nummer. Allerdings erscheinen mir die tiefen Stimmen zu sehr nachbearbeitet. Mit den richtigen Tools kannst du aus einer tiefen Stimme eine RICHTIG tiefe Stimme machen (wie es in der Werbung ständig getan wird). Das klingt in meinen Ohren unecht, wenn auch gut. Aber wenn Dir diese Acapellaversion gefällt, empfehle ich Dir die Version von Peter Hollens. Die ist seit fast zehn Jahren in meiner Playlist, und jagt mir heute noch Schauer über den Rücken. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6rQhGSGl5x9nK8 Und wenn Du überhaupt auf Acapella stehst, such einfach mal nach Pentatonix. Mindblow!

[@sandraf.108]

@@fittersitter Da hast du wohl noch nicht viel von Geoff und Voiceplay gehört. Aber naja, jeder darf seine eigene Meinung haben.

[@Dodl1]

@fitter sitter Ich mag Pentatonix, aber ich finde Geoff und Voiceplay legen sich schauspielerisch und mit etwas mehr emotionaler Leidenschaft ins Zeug. Peter ist klasse, ich liebe seine Versionen auch sehr. Der Hauptunterschied finde ich liegt hier darin, dass Peter eher mit Menge an Layers von sich selbst arbeitet, während Geoff eher weniger dafür klug nachgearbeitete Tracka nutzt. Natürlich ist das Geschmackssache. Allerdings haben mich Geoffs Arrangements noch mehr überzeugt mit seiner enormen musikalischen Komplexität, 3-4 Oktaven (mind) und seiner Ausdruckskraft. Da kommt Peter, so gern ich ihn habe, meiner Meinung nach einfach nicht ganz ran 😉 Aber ich verurteile keinen, der ihn stilmäßig lieber mag als Geoff. Sie haben immer noch einen sehr guten Geschmack 😉 @alle Ich wünsche allen deutschsprachigen Lesern einen wunderschönen Tag/Abend/Nacht und noch viel Freude mit so guter Musik ❤

[@annika1692]

Ich mag Peters und Geoffs Versionen sehr gerne. Aber für mich persönlich finde ich die Version von Celtic Woman am besten, da die Version sich für mich anders anhört als alle anderen.

[@TheBoringBelgian]

When I was recently on vacation, walking to view a newly formed lava field, this song was all that was going through my mind. Geoff, what incredible things you have done with this track. I'm not sure I can fully comprehend it, even after many listens. The vocals in this.. so emotional, soft, fragile, yet as always strong and deep. The amount of emotion you have put into this, legitimately surprised me. You really told a story, that despite me having no clue about the connotation with the movie, really moved me. The typical singable consonants that you use so frequently, are so subtle, yet so wonderful. The range you display is surreal and gives me chills each and every time. The delicate nature of those runs, the timing choices you made, the background vocals, the instrumentation, the effects.. I'm in awe of this one. It is absolutely one of my favorites you have ever done. Thank you as always for sharing your gift with the world. I do not take it for granted. I enjoyed Ed Sheeran's version but that one never moved me so much. You definitely added some kind of magic to this. I am excited for this one to be out in the wild so that everyone can enjoy it and marvel at it🥰🎉👏 and then for everyone to become a patron and support you😂

[@BrammaBoyReacts]

I'm so excited to react to this! Geoff adds magic wherever he walks, and when his clones come in, all I see is fire

Couldn't have said it better myself Tine! Can't remember the last time I had a song on almost 24/7 repeat. This cover is so comforting and melancholy, in no small part thanks to Geoff's beautiful vocal range. I've always liked the original but this one just made it perfect.

This tore and ripped into my soul. Suddenly memories of my uncle came rushing in. Oh what he must have seen and endured in the jungles of Vietnam. He returned a strong survivor., Only to later be afflicted by the scurge of Agent Orange. Which took him from us in the season of what should have been a man's prime. He fought his long battle with the cancers. And died at 40. RIP Brave Heart. I will always remember.

Listening to this reminds me of the wildfire I experianced as a teen. I was at school but wasnt allowed to go home. I didnt know where my parents and little sister were or if they were alright. There were fine. Late that night we were allowed to go in to get belongings. Im almost 60 and I will never forget the trees still burning glowing on both sides of the road. Thank you for the beautiful music.

I still can't get over that deep voice of his I swear I feel like we're in medieval times listening to him in a tavern

[@Lynn_M867]

First of all Geoff, bravo bravo. As a patron I’ve had early access to this and like others I’ve watched it numerous times. It took me 6-10 views just to get past “wow, pretty” (which to be honest it is). But what I appreciate even more than the amazing vocals is the arrangement. It would have been so easy to simply key change this into the “bass”ment, or use it as a five minute flex for the upper range. The use of bass, baritone, bari-tenor, and tenor parts gave so much nuance and variety. I loved The fact that each “soloist” gets a chance to shine. And the decision to literally give each part a “different face” was genius.

[@dylanreubenking4781]

I don't know if anybody else noticed this, but on the hum at 3:15, all the Geoffs move their heads in sync to their left and I thought that was cool. Oh and the song and is pretty cool too. In all seriousness, I think we all need to appreciate Geoff's vocal talent, arrangement skills, and his team's video production as well. It all deserves so much more flowers, and cookies, and all that fuzzy stuff
