#GeoffCastellucci #MaggieReneé #live

[@MrTech226]

Maggie Renee I have a suggestion: try to contact Geoff for an interview. Another operatic singer had an interview with Geoff last year. Her name is Elizabeth. Her channel is Charismatic Voice. Elizabeth and Geoff talk about general topics on music, Voiceplay and his solo stuff. I think conversation between you and Geoff would be awesome!

[@bjspeck4337]

Yeah, I love Elizabeth. I watched her with both Geoff and again with Layne on how to process the beatboxing.

[@Torthak]

She's also did a interview with the lead singer from Sabaton.

[@bjspeck4337]

@@Torthak She also did an R&A of VoicePlay's Halo theme. Her kicker was that she also interviewed Marty O'Donnell who was the original composer of Halo.

[@Beehindblueyes]

@@tiredangel39 Which video?

[@Beehindblueyes]

@@Torthak She also did an interview with Tim Foust from Home Free

[@shirleykarr560]

You are far from the only reactor (and likely barista, restaurant host, nurse, etc.) to mangle the pronunciation of his name at first. I've been shocked at how many Americans don't know it's simply the French and British spelling of Jeff.

[@christinestromberg4057]

She knows how to say his name, Geeoff is what she calls the skull. :)

[@shirleykarr560]

@@christinestromberg4057 yes, now she knows. I was referring to her comment that in her first ever reaction to him she pronounced it jee-off. Which Geoff spells as Jeoph.

[@laurenkop1019]

Short for Geoffrey.

[@janetdw]

In Way Down, he named the three clones Jeff, Goff and Jeoph, alluding to the many ways people try to pronounce or spell his name. With this we have the addition of Daryl. Another viewer wrote a cute little story about him trying to make restaurant reservations. His full name is Geoffrey Robb Castelucci. First name is too hard for the waiter, as is the last. When he got to Robb with two b’s, it was all over. He must’ve had such a hard time in kindergarten learning how to spell his name! Eli did the amazing background and the lighting. It really just takes it to another level, especially when the ghost cowboys are translucent and you can watch the clouds drift through them.

[@marshayoung9387]

But Geoff is Italian not French or British.

[@barbarakennedy2667]

I am so glad to see your reaction. I love this. Let us introduce you to Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff, and Jeoff. Notice that Goff is left-handed. Thank you Mike.

[@MiladyMacabre]

The characters are, left to right: Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff, and Jeoph. The names Jeff, Jeoph, and Goff were given to characters in his Way Down cover, being common mispronounciation/spellings of his name, and adding Daryl for this cover.

[@eriklind8489]

I love this version....great reaction Miss Maggie.....That would be so awesome to hear you two collab something.

[@Beehindblueyes]

The original artist is a band called The Outlaws. Nice guys. I hung out with them a few times back in the 70's.

[@davidthieman8020]

Thank you, Maggie Renee, for your reaction to Geoff Castellucci - Ghost Riders In The Sky. Geoff's voice is something special. The way his voice can go so down so deep and then can go so high is so amazing.

[@shaneomacfan3]

I love the version that was in Blues Brothers 2000.

[@Broomrider1492]

Have fun with Voiceplay's " In The Hall Of The Mountain King " so much fun to watch.

[@mikejenkins1972]

"Ghost Riders" was written and first recorded in 1948 by Stan Jones, made famous by Burl Ives one year later. Today, it had been recorded more than 300 times by artist inside and outside of Country Music. Including Johnny Cash, Christopher Lee (!), the Blues Brothers, Spiderbait and The Outlaws. :) Geoff's Version ist alsolutely GREAT!! :)

[@davidsumpter4933]

It is such a classic and legendary song that even the great Jonny Cash covered it.

[@jackyfriedman1963]

Left to right... Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff and Jeoph. In the behind the scenes when he dressed as Daryl he started singing like Barry Gibb. Super high. He also said that was the most masculine he's ever felt (dressing like Daryl) 😹 Daryl is my favorite with Jeff coming in a close second. It was written in 1948. Many people have done this.

[@alan-thealanyst]

Another great production. Thanks Maggie.

[@sachaput]

I have loved this song since I was a kid. Heard so many versions and Geoff's addition is a good one.

[@1957Shep]

This song is more than 70 years old and a lot of big names have recorded it. I forget who did it first. But Johnny Cash`s version from the 70s might be the best one.

[@jackyfriedman1963]

Voiceplay has a new video coming out probably this weekend. It is super cool and super ghostly.

[@maloxi1472]

Finally a new Geoff reaction !

[@vvoof2601]

Video actually starts at 19:40 for anyone wondering.

[@Doomturtlescottydemonking]

Caleb?😊

[@ilonadever8249]

Great reaction, Maggie!

[@timworks991]

It was originally written and sung by Stan Jones in 1948 and covered by the legendary Marty Robins, Johnny Cash and others since. Listening to this harmonies in this I thought of Marty Robins and how well he would sound covering more of those western and gun fighter ballads. I have been anxiously waiting to hear you react to Austin & Rob singing opera. Will be listening tomorrow when you do. Love your reactions.

[@embran8486]

I look forward to your reaction to Voiceplay - In The Hall of the Mountain King. Yeah, THE Peer Gynt by Grieg one. So their first cover of a purely instrumental piece. The featured soprano even does a bit reminiscent to the Queen of the Night aria.

[@bobharp3492]

I loved your reaction great job 💞

[@roscoau]

Note his lighting guy was Eli (from Voiceplay)

[@ericturner7824]

His 3 other people in 'Way Down', his Elvis cover, had those three names on their nametags, Daryl is the new one....>^^

[@bjspeck4337]

I grew up with Marty Robbins singing it. Lyrics were identical I believe. The whole video that Geoff did took it to a whole new level. I also think Geoff's voice is nonpareil.

[@plantlord3266]

I really love the 'ghosts' are semi transparent and Geoff is solid

[@allenemillerjr6304]

there are many artists who have covered this song. The First was Burle Ives and about the same time it was done by Vaughn Monroe. But others that have covered it are Roy Clark (instrumental), Marty Robins, Johnny Cash, Frankie Lane, Peggie Lee, Bing Crosby and many others.

[@robertdocholliday66sadler]

you need to react of Tim Foust solo stuff he released , especially Will you still love me tomorrow /Stay

[@killermaffia007brb9]

React to geoff on voiceplay in the hall of mountain king

[@rebekkahdavi8493]

To that list of covers, you can also add Gene Autry, Burl Ives and Frankie Laine. This has always been one of my favorite songs since I was a kid.

[@matthewlewis3580]

Did anyone else see Geoff the skeleton and immediately think of Craig Ferguson's robot skeleton sidekick Geoff Peterson on his late night show?

[@karenzak6627]

Thanks for reacting to this, it's one of the first I heard by him is now my favorite production of this song. (I first heard it sing by The Sons of the Pioneers.)

[@cliffmorain7215]

Geoff's videos get better and better every time.

[@steby123]

Marty Robbins and Johnny Cash have both done this.

[@bkm83442]

The joke about Geoff's names are a reference to his video "Way Down" -- which is another one you need to review!!

[@laundrygoddess4]

I still can't watch that one without laughing.

[@ewigkriegerkennelsbonnieza2516]

I always knew this song from The Sons of the Pioneers. I love his version.

[@johndeeregreen4592]

That whisper down was amazing, in the fact he let it sink all the way to an F#1; the inverted 5th of B1. Geoff is ALWAYS very focused on intervals as chord tones.

[@specwarat]

If you listen to Jon Lord of Deep Purple, note that he also used inverted fifths when playing the organ... look for video titled "Jon Lord 101 Tutorial For Keyboard Players" for the details.

[@johndeeregreen4592]

​@@specwarat, Jon Lord's organ playing is one reason why I use inverted 5ths on the guitar. I always wondered how they got such a heavy sound, and it's because of those inverted 5ths from the organ... so I just started using 3-note power chords on the guitar, but done 5th, root, 5th, instead of root, 5th, root.

[@sparc77]

I would very much like to see your analysis of "Annie's Song" and/or "Calypso" by John Denver

Geoff said that he spent sooooo many days in front of the computer editing this one. The original makeup artist couldn't do the makeup due to a scheduling conflict. Love your reactions and thank you Mike for sponsoring this one. Stan Jones first sang it.

[@janetdw]

He was going to have someone other than Rick underwood do his make up? That’s a new one!

[@darrenheadrick3669]

@ Magie Renee Stan Jones was the first to recird Ghost Riders in the Sky. Several artisthave recorded this song. Johnny Cash, Glen Campbell, Burl Ives, Marty Robbins, the Highway Men. Spiderbait did a version of this song in the movie Ghost Rider starring Nick Cage and Sam Elliot.

[@user-ld4xx1el6q]

Johnny Cash and several others have great versions of this song. I would also love for you to check out my favorite song, Hillsongs "What a Beautiful Name it Is" pleas

[@susanfulbright4898]

You mentioned he didn't hit any of his super lows. He has received comments from a very few people in other videos reactions that felt some of his lows are gratuitous thrown in. I feel like the comments are jealousy from men who feel threatened. Lol! All the notes here were chest with no subharmonics. I personally love those body rumbling low notes

[@keithmason9342]

Stan Jones did the original in 1949. You should react to it too. Also it was performed by Johnny Trouble, Johnny Cash, The Outlaws, and The Blues Brothers. Marty Robbins is a real stand out version. So many different iterations.

In his cover of Elvis’s Way Down, he named the three clones Jeff, Goff and Jeoph, alluding to the many ways people try to pronounce or spell his name. With this we have the addition of Daryl.

There is a great cover of the song in Blues Brothers 2000 (along with a bunch of other classics.)

[@Cordelia53]

Johnny Cash did a cover of this song and so did Burl Ives among the many others. He uses the misspellings of his name. lol loved your reaction as always!!

[@lawrencemay8671]

This song was written by a Park Ranger named Stan Jones in the forties and sang it around of the campfire on set of Gene Autry filming of his movies.

[@npilot4445]

Now do In the Hall of the Mountain King, please. Voice play never disappoints!

[@hessian1]

Ok ma’mm I sing this song and I think you would like it too ? ‘ lullaby in Ragtime ‘

[@hayley_council]

The most well known version of this was done by the super group, The Highwaymen." (Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristopherson and Waylon Jennings)

[@travismiller1553]

“Ghost Riders in the Sky” was written in 1948 by American songwriter Stan Jones. The song was a hit for many artists, including The Outlaws, Vaughn Monroe, Bing Crosby, Frankie Lane, Johnny Cash, Burl Ives, Marty Robbins and Gene Autry.

[@comesahorseman]

One of his best, so far. Johnny Cash used to sing this.

[@Aurora-cv5to]

The same set of mistakes in pronouncing his name are common across many reactors.

[@cliffmorain7215]

Geoff's name has been messed up 1000 times Maggie don't feel bad.

[@grandnagus5851]

Imo this song fits him so well that he doesn't have to show off with the earth core low notes. It just works. Nuff said. I'm a huge JR Cash fan and i think Geoff did a awesome job.

the guitar work for some reason reminds me of Steam powered giraffe.

[@N9TheNoob]

he actually hits a F#1 on the "whipery slide"

[@thorncreek3425]

Vaughn Monroe was the only singer to have a hit on radio with it , later many great stars sung it on records but no radio time sadly , this song is truly timeless. I use to hear Monroe sing on radio from 1949 through 1956.

[@frederickbays405]

My Ma had a 78 and later a 45 of Stan doing it We still have goth at my elder sisters house where she had a room made when the house was built to store the family record collection. It has over 500 74's, over 8000 45's and over 2000 33-1/3's. I thin k we went though more then one 45 of this. The 78 got played a lot. I can remember hearing Ma play this before I went to K-garden

[@karenponchak5304]

This is done entirely in chest voice if you didn't notice.

[@SBQDawn]

Who first recorded Ghost Riders in the Sky? The original version by Stan Jones was recorded in late 1948 or early 1949. A recording by Stan Jones and his Death Valley Rangers issued on Mercury 5320 in May 1949. Fellow songwriter Eden Ahbez sent the song to Burl Ives, who recorded his own version in early 1949.

Frankie Laine was the original singer but cover done by Marty Robbins is the one I grew up with. Edit: I stand corrected, looked up after I posted.

[@barbarabishop9362]

When I checked to see who wrote it, I found that the writer based it on an actual Texas legend of a pretty horrific cattle drive that turned tragic, and then apparently repeated itself the following year for no known reason, with the herd stampeding off cliffs and taking a number of cowboys and their horses with them. Interesting story. Also awful. And quite appropriate for this time of year...
