    There have been MORE than a few requests for this song over the past few months so I hope I delivered some spooky goodness for you. There have been numerous versions of "Ghost Riders In The Sky" over the past 70 years, most notably the Johnny Cash version or the Marty Robbins version. THIS version is waaaaaaaay different, so if this is your first time hearing this tune, you've got some spooky musical homework to do. Get to it! Thanks for watching and Happy Hauntings everyone!

    As someone who has listened to the Johnny Cash cover of this song many a time, I couldn’t stop smiling while watching this! I loved what you did with the arrangement, and Rick did such an amazing job on the Geoffettes’ makeup and beard styling. Also, I’m glad we’ve finally confirmed the fourth Geoffette’s name is Daryl. Howdy, Daryl!

    I love that you chose to have the narrator as well as the ghost riders represented in the video. The transparency effect applied to the ghost riders is just so *COOL.* I just adore the creepiness of them.

    @angiewoollard704 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    Two words popped into my head as I was listening to some of your other songs recently, Geoff, and this song just cements that idea.
    The first is “sculptor.” You take a rather repetitive song and step back to examine it. You take it into your hands and work it, mould it, chisel away pieces here and add contours there, until a masterful work of art emerges.
    The second is “storyteller” and this one is twofold…
    The first is how you approach your arrangements. I’ve really noticed with the ebb and flow, the push and pull, the dynamics, the chord progression build-ups - this isn’t just a song you’ve crafted, but a journey. You take us along on this emotional journey through builds and swells and breaks, keeping us on the edge of our seats, eager to see what comes next.
    The second is in your performance of the song. You aren’t just singing the words; we can see the story in your face as you sing. Your expression and posture are very dynamic, following the same ebb and flow of the arrangement. Not only that, but when the song is upbeat (e.g. Way Down), we can see the genuine joy and happiness on your face as you perform; you obviously had a lot of fun filming that one. (And if not, alternately, you are a brilliant actor.) With Ghost Riders, your face also shows the story, albeit a different story, of course, and each ghost rider has a slightly different story, as does the narrator.
    Picking one specific musical thing to appreciate in Ghost Riders, I’m choosing your wide range of unique instrumentation, my favourite of which is in the section starting at 0:41, where one instrument perfectly matches your own vocal timbre. 😍

    Lyrics
    An old cowboy went riding 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 the 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-o
    Yippie-yi-yay
    Ghost riders in the sky
    Their faces gaunt
    Their eyes were blurred
    Their shirts all soaked with sweat
    He's riding 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 snorting 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-riding on our range
    Then, cowboy, change your ways today
    Or with us you will ride
    Trying to catch the devil's herd
    Across these endless skies
    Yippie-yi-o
    Yippie-yi-yay
    Ghost riders in the sky
    Ghost riders in the sky
    Ghost riders in the sky

    I feel like I always sound like a broken record when trying to express how deeply excited and grateful I am for these covers. Every month's cover is usually my new favorite - but this has got to be one of my most anticipated covers. It was already one of my favorite songs (Johnny Cash's version), and I knew I wanted to hear Geoff's spin on it. This instantly became my favorite version of this song, and I think one of the top three favorite Geoff covers, right up there with Sixteen Tons and Big Bad John.

    My Mom & I were so excited when you released the first Patron teaser for this, surprising us by giving us the song title. We talked about it frequently, speculating on what direction you'd take but always agreeing it would be incredible no matter what and always ending with how we couldn't wait to see it. Sadly, it didn't work out that way. Suddenly & so very unexpectedly, my amazing, Queen & Geoff loving Mom, my best friend ever, passed away just 2 weeks shy of her 81st birthday and 2 days before the Patron premiere. With a heavy heart and a box of tissues close at hand, I watched the premiere for both of us, but it turned out I didn't need the tissues and by the end of the video my heart was a tiny bit lighter. Your incredible talent, creativity and beautiful voice drew me in once again & soothed my aching heart & soul for those few precious minutes as it did again today and has every time I've listened. My husband was watching my screen during the Patron premiere but couldn't hear (of course I had headphones on) and I turned to him and said "Mom would have loved it". He nodded and said "This is going to be one of those that I wish was three times longer isn't it?". I nodded, handed him my headphones and hit replay. I thank you Geoff for all the many hours of enjoyment your music gave my Mom over the past couple of years. She would watch & listen every day. I remember teasing her last year because she was still watching Monster Mash in December. Her very favorite song though was Ain't No Sunshine, a heartbreakingly ironic choice for me right now since for me, there ain't no sunshine, cause she's gone.
