Meet Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff and Jeoph. Great background vocals.
Notice Goff is left handed.
This song is an old Western tune. It has been around since the 1940s. So many artists have performed it that the list of them is huge. One of my favorites was Marty Robbins.
I felt that Geoff was perfect for a cover of this song. Johnny Cash already has a pretty deep voice and I knew he'd put his own Geoff spin on it. This song is legendary.
Lesson learned, never take your eyes off Geoff.
Voiceplay released a really spooky video a couple of days ago Ding Dong - Hide and Seek. It features Lauren Paley (Stairway Siren).
Voiceplay’s most spooky song ever: Hide and seek (ding dong) 👻
I am mildly dismayed at how many of the reactors who've done this song so far are unfamiliar with the song. I'm old, I guess, but I've always thought of this song as kind of iconic Americana. Heck, I remember it from GRADE SCHOOL!
But I still love your reactions; you get so completely caught up in the music. And I'm glad you recognized that this made you miss a transition. Some reactors annoy me mightily because they close their eyes right at some meaningful part of the video, and never back up at pauses to let us recapture the flow. This video, while great fun to watch, at least didn't have any moments that make me shake my fist and shout, "OMG, you MISSED it!"
i love this song so much, as someone who graduated from highschool in 2017
Ghost Riders is an old country - western classic, originally done by Stan Jones in 1948 but covered by many greats since then including Marty Robins and Johnny Cash. I am surprised by how many people are not familiar with this but I am telling my age I guess. Love all your reactions and analysis (especially Home Free, I'm a Home Fry). This is a great cover for Halloween the way Geoff presents this.
I'm also surprised at how many people have never heard of it. It was something my uncle (who was a big western music fan) played all the time when we visited him, so I'm very familiar with it. But I guess I'm showing my age there, too!
Johnny Cash was my first exposure to it! My mom played it a lot. This version was great, too. I actually used to think Cash was the original. I only found out his was a cover when I was in my early 20's. I'm 43 now, so... yeah, maybe a generational thing. :)
I first heard one of johnny Cash's meany recordings. I always thought it was one that he wrote. When I first watched Geoff's version I went looking for the first time it was recorded. That's when I found out that Cash didn't create this song and it was in fact far older than I had thought.
This was covered by The Highwaymen, a super collab group with Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson. It's a fantastic recording.
@@SeliahK Cash's version was the one I heard first in the Ghost Rider movie
nobody can harmonize with himself like Geoff.
You are so adorable reacting to this. I love how much you get into the music. For your own listening enjoyment, the most popular version of this song is from Johnny Cash and one of my personal favorite covers is from a group called the Outlaws. No reaction necessary, just thought you might enjoy hearing other versions to compare with Geoff's lovely low tones.
I'm a big fan of The Sons of the Pioneers version as well.
I love Marty Robbins version
I loved the Highwaymen version
@@kirstenmorris4314 4 legend and a legendary song ;-)
Southern Raised made a pretty good cover just this year. I gotta admit though the version in Blues Brothers is special to me because of the visuals and being the first time I heard it.
Eli did the lighting for this one and it really makes it stand out, always love your reactions
From a fellow northwesterner, I am SHOCKED you didn’t grow up listening to this. But then I realized not everybody growing up in the Pacific Northwest grew up in ranch country. Glad you finally got the hear one of my favorite songs.
Although I am from Germany I know the song.
I think that this has to be my favorite geoff song of all time, it is so good. Like he really did such an amazing job with this song!! Amazing reaction as always friend❤
Always a joy to see a new reaction video. Thank you. Given the subject of the song ‘holy cow’ was a particularly amusing exclaimation…
I grew up in the 60s listening to this song done up by Marty Robbins. Was so cool then but this one by Geoff is stunning. My stereo didn't have a video input back then.
Watching you get slack-jawed and flummoxed is why I keep coming back. 🤣 As Geoff keeps working on his low notes (C1 in Way Down, B0 in Halo, etc.) it's been improving his mid-range while still keeping his upper range. He was already so good it's like an Olympic athlete shaving fractions of seconds off his time rather than a high school pole vaulter gaining inches, but still... even someone with an untrained ear like me can hear the difference if you compare now with earlier videos. A reactor who is a trained vocalist said something about it relating to more forward placement in his mask, less nasally. Whatever it is, his voice gives me chills in the best way, especially on the yippee-i-a, yippee-i-o chorus here.
Jeff is the scariest, most zombie-like. Jeoph looks like a gambler who doesn't take kindly to cheating. Daryl is already nicknamed Hairy Gibb or Scary Gibb, as Geoff was singing like Barry Gibb in the makeup chair. Love the detail that Goff is a southpaw. Now we know what happened to Goff and Jeoph for eating popcorn out of the dustpan and licking the toilet brush in Way Down.
My Spooktober must-watch videos from Geoff are Monster Mash and Headless Horseman, and now Ghost Riders.
Halloween type favorites from VoicePlay include Hide and Seek, In the Hall of the Mountain King, Kidnap the Sandy Claws, What's This (be sure to watch the outro), This Is Halloween (that's Kathy in the costume on her knees knocking on the door), Oogie Boogie's Song, Superstition (with Omar Cardona, who is competing on The Voice), Grim Grinning Ghosts (there's one version in makeup as the Singing Busts and an older one they filmed backstage after a concert), Phantom of the Opera, Once Upon a Dream, Friends on the Other Side, and Zombies vs Hillbillies (with Home Free). If you just want to go scary, there's the trilogy of Trapped and Panic In Four Minutes parts one and two. They also have some mini videos, like Put A Spell On You, the Hide and Seek TikTok duet with Lauren Paley, and Halloween Singers Go Psycho (with Cesar and J.None).
Why do almost none of the reactors know Ghost Riders in the Sky?!? It blows my mind, I grew up with it. I remember going to chuck wagon dinners as a kid where the bass of the group rocked this song. Then again I don't know anything pop, so Good 4 U and Encanto was brand new to me when Voiceplay covered it. Also blew my mind how every single reactor just knows songs like Good 4 U like it's second nature. Where did they learn those songs?
You mentioned during VoicePlay's "Road trip" video that you hadn't seen much of anything (Besides "Just Sing") that Tony Waikim (spelling?) was in. He's in two other VoicePlay videos appropriate for Spooky Season: "Grim Grinning Ghosts" (From Disney's Haunted Mansion) and their "Phantom of the Opera Medley" (With Rachel Potter). You might want to check those out.
welcome, brother, to spooky season! if you haven't seen VP's This Is Halloween yet, I'd get right on that. it was what got me hooked forever on VP. fun story: I stumbled upon Grim Grinning Ghosts (another of theirs I'd recommend) a few years back, loved it, and added it to my favorites. but for some reason it didn't occur to me to look into who it was by. some years later, I stumbled upon This Is Halloween, and thought I recognized a couple of the faces...! went back and, by gum, same group! I fell straight down the VP rabbit hole, became a patron, and have never ever looked back. I consider it destiny.
I remeber this song from my childhood - although it didn't sound anything like this. This is so much fun. Perfect song for him, I think.
I don't know if you have already reacted to it or not, but VoicePlay also did Oogie-Boogie's Song. It is so good!!!
I love the fact that there are those two very cool barbershop quartet-esque chords in that song.
YES!!! "Fire" for instance ... I'm dying every time I hear it!!!
as a former barbershopper let it lock and ring
I’m always really looking forward to your Voiceplay and Geoff reactions! Very entertaining and fun as per usual
This one was a lot of fun to watch. I love Geoff's creativity and seeing it on display like this. And his voice, of course...what can you say? Psssh.
It was nice seeing you in the live stream for Sweet N Low, too, Mortius. That was a really great time hanging out with that bunch. #HFSharpDressedManCover
Here's a Sppoky one for you! Voiceplay's Once Upon A Dream. it's an older one ( Tony was still with the band) but still good enough for spooktober.
If you really want something spooky, then you should definitely check out Voiceplay's 'Hide and Seek' and 'Grim Grinning Ghost'. Both of those are haunting good 👻❤️
I was looking forward to your reaction to this and I wasn’t disappointed I knew you would love it! ❤🏴
A song written in the 1940s, it has been recorded by so many singers. This version is a great update on a classic.
how did i not notice the horses going from left to right untill now! thats so cool!
Great reaction as usual. This is his best video as yet.
Can't wait for you to react to Voiceplay video Hide and Seek (Ding Dong).
It is spooky as all heck.
Charismatic Voice does some voiceovers in it.
Haunted Mansion theme.
Voiceplay just released their latest and it's a treat!
Glad you appreciated the hooves going from left ear to right ear at the end, because honestly it's one of my favourite panning sound(?) effects that I've ever heard, like it's honestly kinda satisfying?
Your enjoyment of this increased my enjoyment of this tenfold from the 100% it already was! Thanks for a great reaction!
I know we've talked about this on the discord, but there is plenty of the Hound and the Fox Halloween Music - this year's A Whistling Lad, and their Addams family original Rot Next to You are probably my favourites, but there are plenty more.
This was written in 1948, and has been covered many times. Burl Ives, Marty Robbins, The Outlaws, and Johnny Cash do the best known versions.
This is the very first cover I heard from Geoff where his version isn't my favorite. I mean, it's Geoff, it still sounds awesome. But my favorite remains the version done by Spiderbait. They have this clear, heavy rythm going that actually sounds like a horse galloping and that just really takes the cake. :D
"Its been a stressful week, Leave. Leave my mental state alone please."- Mortius 2023
two cold-opens-worthy reactions, I think that may be a new record. as for spook month suggestions, while it isn't really a spook song, Colm McGuinness' newest song Roll Northumbria has some spook vibes and I think would be a fitting one to react to. It had me agape while watching it, which doesn't happen as often anymore.
I loved watching your reaction...Geoff did an amazing job. This is one on my favorites now and it has been added to not only my regular playlist, but my Halloween playlist too. I cannot wait to see you react to VoicePlay's newest release, it is amazing.
Side note: "Over the River and Through the Woods" is actually a Thanksgiving song 😉
maybe Geoff, Mortius, et al could come up with a new one? I think we're due.
Ghost Riders in the the Sky was originally released by Stan Jones in 1948. It was later released and became a big hit for Johnny Cash in 1979.
Finally I’ve been waiting for this lets go! Great reaction
Everything that he did here is over the top - it is unbelievable!
Another great reaction/analysis as always. Catching up on your videos and am looking forward to a great evening of viewing! Thank you.
I'm honestly surprised you didn't know this song. It's one of the classic country songs that tends to bridge the country/rock divide. Also, Ghost Rider the comic book antihero and all. But definitely a fun reaction. ;)
Happy October to you too Mortius! Great reaction!
Awesome reaction bud. I'm sorry, but I mentioned you again in my reaction to Home Free "Don't Laugh at Me." And I got a lot of comments that others are waiting for it too. Also, for "spooky, " even if it's not for a reaction, check out The Hound and The Fox "Come Little Children" from Hocus Pocus. Plus the have a new release with Adam Chance that is phenomenal.
A bit of history, the song was written in 1948, Burl Ives was the first well-known singer to record it in February. Since then, many singers have added iy to their lisy. Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson of two of the popular recordings.
Great reaction, Mortius!!
Love you Mortius!!
Sadly, this year in Washington, the weather has been brutally summer-y through more than half of October! Unfortunately, with the wildfires here in the Cascades, we've had a very smoky October here T_T Thankfully, it does sound as though this weekend coming up will mark the turn of weather. It's been quite chilly after a recent bout of weather up in the 80's @_@
I can't believe you missed the most beautiful part ! Ok so now that you've calmed yourself rewatch at least that bit Geoff's Yippi yi oooo Yippi yi aaaa OMG Gorgeous upper register and watch the screen ... sorry buddy I just really want you to hear that again ! Great Reaction as always Love watching you loose your mind and geek out !
Lookin' very sharp! Gr8 reaction
Well there is on Spooktober song that I don't think you have done a reaction to. It's another Geoff "Solo-Ensamble". He did a cover of Bobby Pickett's classic "Monster Mash" It was amazing. Wonderful arrangement, Interesting wardrobe and makeup, and some outstanding choreography. Might want to go have a look at that before the month is out.
I did that one last year actually!
That last chorus is a thing of beauty 😅
If you want a very different song/style for spooky season (which is my favorite time of the year too) I highly recommend Sabaton's Attack of the Dead Men. It's based on a real event, it is dark, but I'd love to see your take on it!
This is definitely one of my favorites!
Love your reaction! I always look forward to your reaction when a new voiceplay or Geoff production drops. Voiceplay has a new one you will enjoy-Ding Dong Hide and Seek. Check out Pattycake Productions. they have some cool ones too.
Thank you for another great reaction to Geoff. Nobody does Halloween better than Voice Play. Please do a reaction video of Voice Plays cover song Hide & Seek ( Ding Dong ) cover song it was just released this week. Hold on as you open the door.
Here's a bit of trivia: The original song goes yippie yi yay, yippee yi o. Johnny Cash inverted it, though I'm not sure he was the first one to do it. Also, the original makes it clear these are the "mournful cries" of the ghost riders.
Happy Spooky Season!!!! But how the heck do you not know this song? Keep up the good work!
Voiceplay's version of Grim Grinning Ghosts is a really fun one that you should react to
Geoffs of the West!
You should cover Voiceplay's "Grim Grinning ghosts" it is excellent and has a connection to their newest video
Hey Mortius, if you haven't seen them before, you should do Halloween Girl by Ghosts on the Radio! That's one of my favorite songs for Spooky Month!
Ohhhh! Where in Washington State? That's where I am. I love it here!
You ought to check out Rob and Austin Brown new release Nessun Dorma.
Had 2 favorite singers for this. Marty Robbins, Johnny Cash, now adding a third Geoff.
Song was a warning to cowboys to mend their ways or end up riding with them. Also called Cowboys Lament.
Listen to Marty Robbins version.
after the whistle that would be a bell chord
I was wondering "why mortius haven´t react to this video yet? hahaha i was waiting for ur reaction man
Btw. Thank you for confirming I have my headphones on right. Mine have 2 sites instead of one. I put a piece of tape on what I believed was the left side. When you said about the hooves going left to right mind did the same. So I thank you very much.
You should do Geoff's monster match, voiceplay's what's this?, Voiceplay's grim grinning ghosts, voiceplay's this is Halloween
I did monster mash last year! But I’ll keep the others in mind :)
Man, Thanksgiving isn't Thanksgiving without hearing Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant.
Voiceplay: This is Halloween, Oogie Boogies song both definitely worth a listen I think you'll like them a lot if you haven't heard them already! Love watching your reactions and look forward to your next one 😀
I did oogie boogie last year! :)
This was a huge hit for Johnny Cash when he covered it.
Yep, that was about my reaction too, lol
I don't know if you've seen it yet, but perhaps you could add Spooky Scary Skeletons by Hound + Fox for the upcoming spooky season.
They have several spooky-themed songs to choose from. Check out their list.
Not a great fan of Geoff but really like this song. He did a great job💗
Have you done Geoff's Headless Horseman? It's a pretty good one, and old enough maybe you didn't. And Voiceplay's new song is a blast!
There are 2 Voiceplay videos of Grimm Grinning Ghosts, live and with effects
Voice Play has their Halloween one out now
I hate adding to your workload, but have you considered the voiceplay collaboration with Lauren Paley? "Hide and Seek, Ding Dong Ft Lauren Paley".
It dropped yesterday and it's so much fun.
I think the Dead Geoffs ought to get more respect - they deserve to tour on their own!!! hehe
I sidn't realize the new compurtized music hasn't allowed the newer generarions to actually hear real, layered vocal harmonies. This sound was so standard. EXCELLENT, of course...it's Geoff. Glad he's able to reintroduce it.
Mortius you okay my man
All of the Geoffs have names now.
Left to right....
Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff and Jeoph.
Bob Newhart, here's my brother Daryl and my other brother Daryl
@@user-hs9bl7rf3b
😂
Voiceplay release hide and seek its amazing
It was in the Blues brother movie
This is a Western Classic. Check out Johnny Cash's version. I might actually like Geoff's better and I am a Cash fan!
The dip is part of the song.
Voiceplay new video
Hide and Seek (Ding Dong). Very very spooky.
Great take on a classic but for me the best is still Frank Ifield.
Have you checked out Grim Grinning Ghosts or Once Upon A Dream?
The Hound and Fox have released a whole Album of Spooky stuff go check their videos a couple have Adam Chance
You've got to listen to Home Free Don't Laugh At Me feat. Mark Wills.
Spooky scary skeletons
The best band for spooky season in my Opinion? The Hound + the Fox, so fantastic!
I love their Spooky Scary Skeletons.
Mortius hi, there is one ☝️ decent thanksgiving song I know, not really necessary to react to but fun if you’re a bit of a geek. ‘Thanksgiving’ by Paul and Storm, ripping on George Lucas and his rerelease of Star Wars and comparing him to other writers and producers.
You're now chopping off the bottom of the original video. Please move it up a bit. Thanks.
Have you seen Paint's "Disney Halloween Mashup" ft Voctave? If not you should check it out! ruclips.net/video/PD-FA6GDYv8/видео.html
Why does your thumbnail say "Ghost Riders in the *Night* "?
I noticed that too.
