This legendary song, covered by the legendary Johnny Cash, Gene Autry, Bing Crosby and Burl Ives, lives on now with Geoff Castellucci's incredible talent. As one of the greatest western songs of all time, I got the chance to take a look at Geoff's isolated vocals on this, and we're going to dive deep into what makes this song phenomenal!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Geoff Castellucci performing "Ghost Riders In The Sky" for the first time.

I always learn so much watching you. Thanks, Elizabeth!
The bass God himself in the flesh!!!
The man. The myth. The legend😎🔥
Please keep giving Elizabeth material to get her teeth into Geoff!!!
I learn so much listening to you!!!
@@TheCharismaticVoice Please - look Nightwish - Sleeping Sun. Tarja Turunen's voice rises above the clouds. The range is just amazing! Sorry for my English. I use a translator
This is a fantastic analysis. And the fact that Geoff gave you the voice tracks to analyze shows that his character is just as strong as his voice and his overall talent.
Geoff is built a little different; he is a brilliant musician !
There is so much truth in this!!!
@@TheCharismaticVoice How can or did you react to Black Stone Cherrys cover of Give Me One Reason by Tracey Chapman??? Please Please there are 2 versions One is a little harder
@@TheCharismaticVoice when are you going to react to Voice Plays cover of Hide & Seek ( Ding Dong ) ? Tell us what part you sang in this. Please please do this. We have been waiting for you to do a reaction for this.
@@TheCharismaticVoice yessss we've been waiting for a while now pls do it pls
@@TheCharismaticVoice PLEASE🙏
His choice to slide lower makes so much sense with this song, it makes it feel that much more mournful
It definitely changed how I view and will be singing the song from now on. I covered this song as a guitarist and singer in several bands over the past 30 years, and even as a bass, I would go up like everyone else does when singing it. His choice to go down when hitting the chord root notes gave it a feeling of a lot more tension and definitely fits the song. He did shift the key up one half-step (from A#m to Bm), which does help. With Geoff's lowest chest note being an F#1 and also using that note as a subharmonic a lot, moving the key to Bm was a perfect choice.... F#1 is the inverted 5th of the Bm chord. He knew what he was doing here and did it perfectly.
I am a dyed in the wool metalhead. I'm also a trained baritone although my training is decades in the past.
I never really enjoyed country/western music but this song had an edge to it that came pretty close to metal.
40 years of smoking and 25 years of hard drinking took a toll on my voice. I stopped smoking a few months ago and my drinking days ended in 2006 (knock on wood that they don't make a comeback because I still want a shot and a drag, just not today).
Geoff's voice is otherworldly. On my best day, back in the day, I could almost make it down as low as Geoff but my sustain wasn't there. His vibrato is subtle but pronounced.
This man has a set of pipes like nobody's business. Sustain like a pipe organ. Range from second-tenor to basso-profundo, pretty much where my vocal range was.
He's a real talent to be sure. It was fun watching you listen to what he had to offer. ✌️🖖
Love to hear old songs being remade so that todays generation can appreciate them.
As someone in their mid-30's, I have songs on my mp3 player by their original singers that are older than my parents. And it would take a very special singer to be able to redo those songs & do them any sort of justice.
I love his 16 tons!
@@jessicayork2352 Geoff & Voice Play always does justice to any song they sings. That's one thing I love about them.
I love this song. It reminds me of listening to it over and over again at my Grandpa's as a kid. An oldie but a goodie.
I love the use of the spectogram in this analysis, it really makes me able to appreciate Geoff's voice even more 🤓❤️ and I have so much appreciation for Elizabeth for not only focusing on the low notes, but also giving some love to the high ones 🤩😍
Thank you, Sara! I truly love what Geoff is doing, and reminds me of my chat with Tim Foust regarding being a bass. Learn the highs before you learn the lows!
@@TheCharismaticVoice Yes, there is definitely some truth to that. Unfortunately when it comes to guys like Tim and Geoff people tends to talk so much about the low notes that it almost seems like they forget about the high notes, and I really think that is a shame, because to me a lot of the magic happens in the contrast that is created by having both.
@@sarawlindgreen3115 yes it is the contrast from high to low that really gets my attention. At one point Geoff did a slide that seemed like two octaves, maybe more. That is just nuts.
@@horseshoe_nc yes, the octave jumps that he sometimes does are crazy. There is also one in Voiceplay's cover of Hoist the colors.
Ah Liz, your pure joy is so contagious. I had a grin on my face the whole time. Not only that, but at 16:54 we got crossed eyes to go along with slithering tongue; my new favorite. Geoff meanwhile, keeps on outdoing himself. I count myself lucky to have found this world of music reactions.
Hearing the isolated vocal track gives so much insight into just how controlled those low slide-offs are. No wavering at all until he's exactly where he wants the voice to be. His voice is amazing across all its range which is no mean feat. Appreciate your review pointing out some of the fantastic harmonic moments ... Geoff always pops those in and I love them!!
Thank you so much. I plan to do so many more of these when I can get my hands on the isolated vocal stem files!
I don't know any other youtube presenter that creates such a strong emotional field... it's impossible not to smile with you, not to enjoy with you. Not to sound cheesy, but watching you react to music is the best way to enjoy music 🙂herzliche Grüße aus Deutschland
I agree. I have little patience with others, but she cracks me up, and I keep learning new things.
Agree. I’ve always loved low male voices (my dad had a pretty deep voice-nothing like this but deep). I hadn’t really realized how much I like them until I started listening to Geoff and Avi and The Bass Gang, etc.
Geoffs voice is amazing. He is the best bass I have heard in many decades. He can go so low, he is below ground. Unreal skills!!!!!!!!!! Thank you lady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very, very special.
I’m imagining Geoff performing this song in concert with holograms visually representing the ghosts and a backing soundtrack for their voices. How cool would that be!
I must confess I missed most if not all of the video subtleties Elizabeth pointed out. Her incredible knowledge, talent and experience really make watching her videos enjoyable. Not to mention her obvious joy and delight in what she does. Yippie-yi-oh, yippie-ai-aie!
That is a righteous idea
I get a tinge of pleasure every time Geoff says, “come on” in his songs. Is it just me?
Nope!
Only YOU could take 26 minutes to analyze a 3:44 song. THANK YOU!! As one who doesn't understand all of the intricacies of vocal analysis (you're teaching me though, Elizabeth), your elevation to spectrographic displays is something I do understand and appreciate. I think this is the first time we've seen a Geoff quintet. What's he gonna do next?!! Oh ... I also think Sweetwater is awesome.
it's a big thing he sent you vocal stems ; be proud of that , the result of your great and professional work !
Great analysis Elizabeth, I am a huge fan of Geoff's myself like yourself I think, and hearing you discuss and the technical aspects of his voice in this track with the aid of visualizations of the wave forms and such just tickled my inner science geek side. This made it the complete experience enjoying the artistic aspect as well as the nerdy science angle as well.
All credit to Geoff's talent (which is incredible) aside, I think it is a credit to your ability as a musician and analyst/reactor that he would send you the clean tracks & waveforms to add to your analysis. Your genuine passion AND expertise make your videos a joy to watch. Happy Halloween Elizabeth!
You're the only person/reactor I love to watch/hear dissecting a song. Love the addition of this device. You'recgreat at hearing several things on different levels simultaneously and how they contribute/impacts the song.
Elizabeth! I have been waiting chomping at the bit for you to react to this song as soon as he put it out. Thank you so much for your in depth analysis and the new visual aids! Your reactions never disappoint!🥰!
It isn't a musical thing, but I love the fact that one of the ghosts is shown as left-handed. He didn't have to do that, but had the attention to detail that it happened. Thanks for a fascinating and informative reaction.
Thanks for saying that. I'm ultra-left handed yet didn't notice that.
I did notice that. I am glad he was so inclusive, that's really cool of him!
I am naturally Right-handed. Mom is absolutely hopelessly Right-handed and I saw the aftermath and how she struggled at two different times in her life when she broke her elbow once and then her wrist, both times on her good arm. She really felt useless while she healed up because she has always been weak as a kitten and twice as clumsy with her Left hand and arm.
I did not want to be like that. I made a concerted effort throughout a lot of my childhood to use my Left hand for many things. Eating, drinking, opening doors, especially the more simple stuff, I can do Lefty. I can shoot pool Lefty (I am really no good at pool either way so that hardly matters), I can shoot basketball Lefty and fire a paintball gun with reasonable accuracy with the Left hand. I just happen to be Left-Eye-Dominant, which I think has also really helped me in some ways, even if it makes me weird.
Great catch!
I'm ambidextrous (probably switched in K-really old), but it came in handy homeschooling my twins as one is right, and the other is left (mirror twins).
Hands down the best arrangement he's ever done in a solo. I was watching it for the first time as well. Very impressive how he mixes it up! I like how he inverts the scale on this song from the original going down at the end of each section rather than up. As always you are adorable! TY for sharing it with us!
Looking forward to your reaction and analysis! Geoff is the best, and his version of GRITS is fantastic.
And you'll get to meet Daryl! 😁
team Daryl
Great, great reaction! By the way Congratulations on your collaboration with VoicePlay in"Hide and Seek' (Ding Dong)........some reactors were surprised to know it was you, but it was about time .....heheheh........>^^
The funny thing is that the parts of this version of the song that give me the biggest chills is when Geoff goes up during the "yippie-i-o" parts. Just so clean and powerful.
Agreed. We don't often get to hear him belt like that. As many times as I've heard it, that second yippee-i-ay still gives me chills.
You are my favorite analyzer! There are several that I listen to, you are the best. I also have a long list of reactors that I listen to. I also listen to Peter Barber, Jennifer Glatzhofer and QoFy. By the way, Jennifer told me that you are the queen of reactors. QoFy, in my opinion, is the bridge between reactors and analyzers. And yes, you definitely react, but reactors have less musical expertise, but know what they like... You are the best, and congratulations on the birth of your baby!😇
This really drives home what a monster Geoff is. I mean, I knew before but... wow.
Perfectly appropriate for Halloween lol
Hahaha, yes he is. Totally a monster in that vocal tone. ;-)
I love your detailed analyses and explanations.
Appreciation for bass notes is thundering back with a vengeance.
That got me thinking, there haven't been that many deep bass singers in pop/country.
Off hand I can only come up with Tennessee Ernie Ford, the bass for the Oak Ridge Boys, and whoever was with the early Olivia Newton-John. (Summertime Blues being one example.)
Would Bowser from Sha Na Na count?
@@mikespangler98 I'm not a fan of country but I do like Josh Turner and Trace Adkins. Go figure; both have low voices.
What a chilling version of this song. Gave me goosebumps.
Seems Elizabeth got her hands on the clean vocal tracks again?
Yup, Geoff sent them over before I filmed this.
@@TheCharismaticVoice
I'M I'M I'M I'M SPEECHLESS!!! 😱🤯
Back door to Mr Castellucci himself😎
Bassment dwellers, we are pretty nice guys.. we just sound evil🤣
@@TheCharismaticVoice if he posted the vocals to his channel we would have so much to learn
@@jplayzow An old cowboy went ridin' out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
Plowin' through the ragged skies, and up a cloudy draw
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny, and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
For he saw the riders coming hard, and he heard their mournful cry
Yippie-yi-oh, yippie-yi-aie!
Ghost riders in the sky
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat
He's ridin' hard to catch that herd, but he ain't caught 'em yet
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
On horses snortin' fire, as they ride on, hear their cry
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
"If you wanna save your soul from Hell, a-ridin' on our range
Then cowboy, change your ways today, or with us you will ride
Tryin' to catch the Devil's herd, across these endless skies"
Yippie-yi-oh, yippie-yi-aie!
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
It's pretty crazy that he just lets you - and thereby the world - have the clean vocals tracks for thorough analysis
He is not trying to hide anything. "This I can do - This I can't do (yet)"
Very honest guy :)
I guess you can afford to be when you can do almost anything with your voice
His lows are so powerful and yet the diction is still incredibly clear.
I will die on this hill....I want a triple collaboration between Geoff, Tim and Avi! Can you imagine what that would be like....they all have amazing range and if they go low together kiss your speakers goodbye! Great reaction Elizabeth!! Keep them coming!
His version of this song is sooo epic! Thanks for the deep dive with the bonus solo track analysis!
YES! I'm excited for this one!
This song was originally written and performed by Stan Jones in 1948. Its first cover was by Burl Ives in 1949. Stan and Burl are both on the opposite end of the spectrum from Geoff. It would be awesome to hear you comment on the Burl Ives version with comparisons to Geoffs version, 73 years apart.
As always, I love hearing your insights to the music and techniques and your reactions are so much fun to watch. Thank you and keep up the good work!
My favorite version is still the more up tempo Vaughn Monroe 1949 which was the first version to chart. I've seen several titles on it as well. A fascinating song, and this version and the reviews have been great for this time of year!
I prefer The Sons of the Pioneers version myself.
I really enjoy your reactions. This is one of my favourite songs and Geoff did wonderful with it. I also truly appreciate your analysis as it helps me to focus on areas of the song that I have trouble distinguishing (only hear with one ear) so it makes it more enjoyable for me.
They are not "the Geoffs!" His credits for them:
Backup vocals by Goff, Jeoph, Jeff, and Daryl
Notice that three of them are right-handed.
I love listening to Geoff! So powerful and yet so smooth and subtle. I also love watching Elizabeth reacts to his vocals. Like the truest form of appreciation and love personified! His voice is a pure in the low registers as hers is in the high. Duet! Duet! Duet! 😀
Great addition with the spectrogram!
Btw, I had put your 'Pour unfortunate souls' through a spectrogram and there is at around 2/3rd a perfect rundown in the background of more than an octave. Consistent in tempo pitch and volume.
Also Geoffs favorite note the A1 (in my opinion) is 55Hz and he regularly hits G1's at 52Hz and lower. Those notes are not visible on your spectrogram. I think you need to play around with the settings to make everything visible to al least 40 or 30Hz.
Geoff's amazing voice soothes my soul.
I love his videos on how he sings so deep, he doesn't pretend to know all the science, biology, of it, but there is a lot of useful info for people trying to expand their range, and more.
Another great analysis, Elizabeth! This is one of my very favorite spooky Country songs, and I recall as a young lad listening to the Marty Robbins' cover on the radio, and getting creeped out at the unique take on Hell presented in the lyrics. And rather than kidnap Geoff, the lyrics say why he (as the living cowboy that day) was allowed this 'Jacob Marley-esque' glimpse of 'cowboy hell' -- "Cowboy, change your ways today, or with us you will ride, tryin' to catch the devil's herd across these endless skies." Full. Body. Chills! 🤠
Just wanted to mention that the story is much like the old folktales of the Wild Hunt, only based in the American Old West. Which is why it’s such a great, spooky song. The imagery is so vivid: Devil cattle stampeding across a sky that just stretches on forever; burning brands and sparks flying from their hooves, all the while being chased by those men who are damned for their deeds (or misdeeds) in life. Add on top of that Geoff’s amazing vocals and masterful storytelling, this has become one of my favorite songs.
I saw the premier, I loved how much work Geoff put into this video. I also loved how he used blue eyes for the ghosts instead of red eyes. Excellently done. Much love to what you do Elizabeth.
Edit: A cool twist would have been for him at the end to turn ethereal and eyes turn blue as the ghosts.
This song used to creep me out - in a good way. Now with the mentioning of those blue eyes [from the ghosts], I hope I don’t wake up in the middle of the night. This is my 1st time seeing this particular version.
Yes, it would be. Spooky.
Geoff is somehow simply beyond ridiculously talented... how did ALL this insane talent come to reside in ONE human being? I don't know but overjoyed to experience it!!
This is how this song was meant to sound.
I discovered this song in a stack of piano music at Grandma's (I have played since age 6) and never actually heard a vocal version until I was nearly 20. It has remained one of my all time favorites and I like what Geoff has done with it. I note that Geoff likes to do his "solo" work WITH instruments while Tim Foust likes to stay acapella. I can only imagine what these two could do together other than lay waste to speakers. Again, I really like your analysis (spot on, of course).
Tim Foust does use musical instruments in his solos.
Gotta love how much smoother and more even his insane lows have gotten. It’s crazy how he can just drop into the basement so casually no matter how many times I hear it.
Just so dang good
This song was penned in 1948 by a man named Stan Jones. He wrote it after listening to an elderly Native American in Arizona relate a story about how ones' spirit enters the sky after death. I suppose it eventually applied to cowboys too? Thank you for a beautiful reaction. You are awesome.
Looking forward to this!!
Thank you again for your great reaction/analysis of Geoff. The design in the opening of the song was designed by Geoff. Another talent of Geoff's to add to the many others he has.
The imagery in this music video is spot on. Her analysis of the vocals is vibrant as usual.
Elizabeth, I love your bubbly love for music! I learn so much from your videos. Thank you for your vlogs!💗💗💗
I’ve been waiting for this! I love your videos! This song is probably the best version of Ghost Riders in The Sky that I have ever heard and I totally recommend listening to the karaoke track as well if you haven’t already. It’s GLORIOUS
I always learn so much from you. those spectrographs were fascinating! I definitely hope you get to include those in future pieces!

Last time there was a connection on monday and tuesday. The friday song was a non-related-but-awesome banger. This weeks theme: Elizabeths happy vocal nerdy place. (Oh wait thats been everyday for at least 30 years now… ) 😂

@@nightmusic8 and happy dancing eyebrows 😁
@@nightmusic8 You must have listened to the same interview of Elizabeth that I did where one of the interviewers called her the Bob Ross of reactors!
Hearing the isolated vocals is EVERYTHING! 10x the fun! TY. :)
His arrangements are always so well done. Blows me away!!
Being a life long baritone I can feel for all of us who notice that all the heroes in songs are the tenors. The bad guys mostly low voices. So nice to see other wise. Love all of his videos uses as much wonderful video shots as he does vocals.
fun fact, in russia it's the opposite
try being a low alto. zero appreciation ...we are lost between showy tenors and sopranos and lose to bass in low note appreciation iation 😅
@@jennifersmith8923 You are so right.
This was amazing. Thanks Elizabeth. Another fantastic voice you will probably enjoy is Tim Buckley. He had a very wide voice range of I think five octaves. The best song to initially demonstrate his talent would be 'Sweet Surrender' but there are many others to choose from too.
Outstanding analysis. You truly love diagnosis of people's vocals to a degree that few can.
Thanks for a fabulous reaction and analysis Elizabeth. Love your giggle too 🤠
I find it wonderful, the way he manages to play with apparent ease with the most varied tonalities going from mid-tones to an impressive bass. Also I find his voice really soft and charming.
Really love watching Elizabeth on how she understand each of Geoff’s vocals. Giving us precise information on what note he is hitting which is actually INSANE!!! 😮 Amazingly watching videos like this ❤
Yes! Ghost Riders in the Sky is my favorite country western song and I am always happy to hear new renditions of it. Geoff absolutely rocked it!
I'm absolutely loving the new toy!! Visuals are my jam. I enjoy picking things apart and finding out what makes them work, which is exactly what your analyses do. You know your profession inside and out and are uniquely able to explain the concepts to the layman in just the right way. You are a natural teacher, and we're here for it every time. Thanks for your dedication.
I never really thought about it much with his sound placement and consistency.... now I will be always thinking about it! And now I hear it's always consistent, regardless of technique used. Even when he uses glottal compression on some of his lower bass notes, I can now hear he phonates consonants and vowels the same... that's crazy!
Ok first time hearing this song and this version is just awesome. On a side note, this song is actually based on a true story that happened about half an hour from where I grew up in Crosby, Texas around 1890. It was an actual Stampede and cattle were driven off a cliff, and it's said that the ghost herd can still be seen& heard
Always loved this song! Wow! Geoff can really get down there, and so controlled too! Amazing!
Just love your analysis of songs, not to mention your fangirling for Geoff. :)
As a baritone singer myself, it's always a rare treat when lower singing is appreciated. I feel like there's been too much push for bright and high vocals, and deeper tones get regulated to the background or as accents. So when I hear a singer performing in a low or middling range, it always catches my attention.
I would rather listen to a lower voice. It’s sexier.
I was looking forward to your analysis of this one. 🙂
The spectrograph is an interesting tool, makes some details "visible", very nice. 🙂
I notice that many focus on the detail of the ghosts' eyes, but almost no-one seems to notice what IMHO is the most "ghostly" feature of them: they're translucent, you can see the landscape and the sky through them. WAAAY more noticeable, for me, yet very few seem to notice it. 🙂
BTW, since he covered "Way down", Geoff gave names to all the other Geoffs. Here you have, left to right: Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff, and Jeoph. 😁
As usual, I'll have to watch your analysis over and over again, to take in all the interesting things you point out. Thank you for all this. 🙂
See you next time! 🙂
PS: will you analyse BOTH version of "Hide and seek - Ding dong", the one you're involved in and the one by the Bass Gang? It would be really interesting. No comparisons, nor judgements... Just the analysis of the two versions, to understand the differences, the approaches, and so on. 🙂
This reaction was, and is, amazing, and beautiful to watch; wow!
I love your analysis, I learn so much and you, dear lady, so enjoy yourself. I sit here listening and watching with a big smile on my face. Guess it's time to go outside and get some more plants in the ground. Thanks for the break!
One of my favourite western songs (my late Dad was a huge fan of westerns and introduced his daughters to it young), I love Geoff's voice, this is just awesome 😊
I loved this and love everything you do. It's so great to see more representation for people who have deeper singing and speaking voices, yes yes yes!
I suspect that you have also fallen into the Geoff Castellucci addiction category. Welcome to the club. There’s warm comfort in the seemingly effortless masculine beauty of his voice. That he transitions seamlessly between bass, baritone, alto, tenor is incredible. Thank you.
Love this, and super interesting with the spektrogram
I have never heard someone sing like Geoff, absolutely amazing!
I think that Daryll in particular did a great job in the backup vocals.
I have been waiting for your reaction to this song. This song is just so pleasing to my ear. I haven't gotten tired of it yet and I've listened to it a lot since he relased it.
Loved seeing this once again with your dissection. Speaking of which, as an avid follower of The Institute Of Human Anatomy, they’ve just posted a YT Short on a dissection demonstrating a human vocal chord. Thought it might peak your interest!
If you want one where the Geoff clones really interact with each other, you should check out his cover of "Way Down"! It's so good!
Also amazing reaction once again! Love the detailed information about everything regarding the arrangement from your own PoV
Me: is an existing bass singer
Geoff: Hold my tea
I do appreciate that Geoff enjoys using Johnny Cash songs, they're so good.
Just so you know Stan Jones is the original recording artist of this song. Released in 1948 or 49.
@@mandyconway9692 Understood, nearly everyone knows it first from Cash's cover.
what a wunderful interpretation - this kind of songs are truely made for him....
Loved your review of one of my favorite songs! I was 4 years old when my oldest got married and when he moved out of my parents house, he gave me a radio (the old arch style tube radio). One of the first songs I heard on that radio was the version by Vaughan Monroe (Stan Jones wrote the song in 1948 and Vaughan Monroe recorded it in 1949). Many others have recorded it since then, but the version by Vaughan Monroe has always been my favorite until Geoff's version! Thanks again.
You've never been more excited than this one . Thank you
I love watching you react to Geoff and VoicePlay. I really hood that you plan on doing VoicePlay Hide and Seek. And talk about your contribution to it.
I always love watching your facial expressions (especially when analyzing deep bass voices) as you react. I also love your analysis, and it's help me understand pitch, control, and harmony. So glad I stumbled upon your channel.
One word for this performance and your analysis - brilliant.
His speed is what astounds me. As a bass singer it takes more air in the lower registers to keep the note and the tone and moving quickly between notes gets more difficult the lower you go. He makes it sound so effortless to do big jumps and then quick moves at the lower part of his register.
This video was my introduction to your reaction videos, and I am SO GLAD I found you! You are a shot of pure dopamine. Long live the giggle!
I love your analysis! Geoff actually brings tears to my eyes with this performance.
Absolutely incredible! Geoff needs to be fronting a prog metal band - I wonder if Arjen can fit him in to the next Ayreon album :)
I was wondering if you were gonna do this one!
I love your thorough analyses of incredible vocalists.
I'm glad Geoff got to do a Rob Zombie cosplay in a video
"Maybe they're white walkers."
My brain, "White walker, Texas ranger."
