Is This About Red Dead? | Geoff Castellucci - Big Iron | UK Reaction

[@Badger77722]

The song was written and originally performed by Marty Robbins, US western singer, in 1959. This is Geoff's "updated" version of the song - he added some music and lyrics to it, but did it so smoothly that unless you're pretty familiar with the original, you'll never know what Geoff added. Check out the video description for Geoff's tortured relationship with the song. The song you were trying to remember is I See Fire, a song written for the second Hobbit movie, The Desolation of Smaug. It's absolutely my favorite video that Geoff has put out!

Thanks for keeping up with Geoff and VoicePlay. By the way, VoicePlay just dropped a new one this morning - The Way You Make Me Feel.

[@KaireemReactions]

Yeah I have been slow on them but when I can I will definitely do so 😊. Yes thank you for this information I saw it and it’s coming out this Friday

[@CarlaSaylor]

It is based on a Marty Robbins song from way back, but it has been used in both Red Dead Redemption 2 and Fallout: New Vegas. Geoff did a short of this song a while back, and then we patrons kept asking for a full version, and this was the result. He added a verse and a number of bridges as well.

[@1957Shep]

The song has been around for more than 60 years.

Cool reaction Kai, this is an old country song that was a big hit for a great artist named Marty Robbins.👌👍🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@KaireemReactions]

Oh I see I was wrong. Thanks Kerry appreciate it 😊

[@jackyfriedman1963]

Just letting you know..... Geoff Castelucci just released his new video on his patreon Thursday August 1st. It is absolutely beautiful. A classic from the 1970s. He should be releasing it on KZbin around August 12th.

[@smity25ca]

The Marty Robbins original is on my phone 😂

[@Denalicat]

Big Iron is from Marty Robbin's 1960 album "Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs" i understand it's used in RDR and Fall out Vegas someone can correct me if wrong. I love this incredible cover.

[@KaireemReactions]

Thank you for the knowledge 😊

[@marshayoung9387]

There is a short video showing the story of Big Iron. Its a must watch because at the end it shows you who the Texas Ranger really is.

[@PAT8888-is2pd]

Arizona Ranger not Texas Ranger.

[@bjspeck4337]

You have to go back 65 yrs to find this song by Marty Robbins. Thinking of the Hobbit - I See Fire.

[@ericturner7824]

Kaireem,..need to do a KZbin search of the songs of Marty Robbins,.....

[@KaireemReactions]

Ah okay thanks will do 😊

[@PAT8888-is2pd]

Red dead redemption wasn't even an idea when this song came out in 1959. In fact no video game was.

[@KaireemReactions]

Haha fair thanks 😊. Just a coincidence

[@christinestromberg4057]

No, no, no, this is an old Marty Robbins song, from 1959, long before games like that existed (you're too young to know Marty Robbins) but Geoff has done Unshaken from Red Dead Redemption, a game that first appeared in 2010. Check it out. However, this song had only verses originally so Geoff added a chorus and a bridge. I'm guessing you haven't watched many old Western movies. :)

[@KaireemReactions]

@@christinestromberg4057 no I haven’t and I don’t know the artists but I appreciate you explaining 😊. Ahh I see fairs I have reacted to unshaken 😊

[@jammiegirl74]

It wasn't used in Red dead.or Red dead 2 but was in fact 1 of the pip boy radio songs broadcasted in the Fallout: New Vegas video game. So in a way you were right that it is featured in a video game. Just not the Red Dead Redemption series.

[@KaireemReactions]

Oh cool no way thanks for letting me know 😊

[@CarlaSaylor]

It is actually used in Red Dead Redemption as well.

[@jammiegirl74]

@@CarlaSaylor Cool! I didnt know that. 👍

[@barbarakennedy2667]

Nope, sorry, you are wrong, but Red Dead Redemption may have been very loosely based on the old western songs and tales.

[@KaireemReactions]

Not a problem thanks for correcting me 😊
