"Sixteen Tons" was Originally performed by Tennessee Ernie Ford and his version is brilliant and iconic. I first heard this song in the title sequence of "Joe Vs The Volcano" when I was but a wee babe. You don't know that movie? Tom Hanks + Meg Ryan + giant suitcases + orange soda = hilarity.
This version of "Sixteen Tons" was produced and arranged by me. Don't bother teasing me about it in the comments, I'm already busy in the gym working on my spaghetti arms.

Geoff's voice is indeed cool but there is also lot of production going on here including a staggering amount of pitch correction software and sub bass.

A fixture of 1950s & 1960s entertainment Kovacs & Ford were both born in 1919, huge 1950s stars, 1st wives were named Betty, later both remarried, they each had a child die young & both men had dark hair & trademark mustaches

This is beyond great for what started out as a deep-voice guy singing acapella...but then, he was joined by three backup singers, all him! I had to go back and listen several more times, and I saved it to "watch later," as I'm sure I'll want to listen ...well, later.

Cliffie Stone played bass on the recording. It was first released in July 1947 by Capitol on Travis's album Folk Songs of the Hills.[3] The song became a gold record.

    @@andread6050 nah, all voices are good. But only if you embrace your voice like she is and don't try to be another one.. I'm an alto, but I would prefer to be a mezzo soprano, and therefore used to sing songs which are too high for my voice. Actually, through voiceplay and Geoff this changed. I start to sing more in my lower range. 😂I mean, it's still like 3 octaves away from Geoff, but he was still the reason I started to appreciate low notes more.

    @Aidan Todd i watched all of them but, including Geoff's, just relax your voice and find a confortable note for you practice with (i chose b2) and it took me a couple of hours to find that sweet spot where you apply the vocal fry to the note. it kind of feels like your vocal chords are rattling. drink lots of water and keep at it and don't over do it, try for 10-15 mins and take a break and try again, you will get it.

The corrupt banker in our small town did it. The company man came out to tell the families they would have to move, just for a while, because they were going to strip mine the area. (Of course there wouldn’t be any trees, soil, animals and homes left after) The man was met with silence and a lot of guns at the small central store. They didn’t come back.

    Thank you for making this excellent tribute to a great performer. I heard this song on the radio when I was a child in the late 50's. It has stuck with me to this day. You capture the feeling of a man who is trapped in a situation he cannot escape. I don't think we have heard that in many a year. Let us pray for those in a morally equivalent situation today, such as those oppressed by rich men near Richmond.

I love how every one of your clones seems to have their own personality of some kind... I don't know if that was intentional, but I have to say it's genius and so fun! xD This was an amazing arrangent in every way and I literally can't believe it's all full voice... wow.

Adding up the brutally hard work, the multiple, omnipresent threats to life and limb, and the utter hopelessness that were the hallmarks of the coal miner's lot prior to the advent of the United Mine Workers of America, I would say this: No other work compares to shoveling 16 tons of coal in a five-foot vein in an eight-hour shift. I did it as a UMWA member, in a safe, modern mine, for good pay and benefits, and it was hard work. No other job I ever had was near as hard. By the way: My personal best record was 27 tons (three, nine-ton wagons) in one, eight-hour shift. I admit I had to work through lunch to do it.

    This song has a lot of meaning to my history. My paternal grandfather (and his father before him) were coal miners in the Bolden Collery coal mines of north east England. It was very hard and dangerous work, but paid better than the other jobs available to them at the time and place. After WWI and just discharged from the British Army, my Grandfather, his brother and several other young families members made the move to escape the Royals, who owned ALL the land and everyone on the land. You started working in the coal mines the Monday after you gradated from the eight grade. Coal miners worked twelve hour days six days a week. In the winter they only saw the sun on Sunday. You had to rent a simple two room brick flat from the company and the only stores you could shop at within walking distance were the company stores. The Royals were "generous" enough to pay the Lads one Penny per ton for the coal they dough out by hand from 38 inch high coal seams deep under ground, sometimes going out hundreds of feet under the North Sea. They would have moved to America sooner, but before WWI without having traveled outside of England, they would not have believed that you could stand up to mine coal and make enough money to own your own home. Yes, this song resonates in my bones. I am glad to see you are giving new life to this song.

    A fun fact: I'm not sure if you know this, but the surname Castellucci has a special meaning in Italian. It's derived out of two words: Castello and Lucci. If we put the correct articles in front, it would be 'il castello' which you can guess, it means 'castle.' 'Le lucci' means 'lights' (plural of 'light', like the object that shines') so etimologically speaking, this man was predestined to be as mighty as a castle and to shine as bright like not just one light, but many more! Stay true to yourself, Geoff, and keep shining like the treasure you are!

    Unless you're talking about a singing note scale (of which I have no knowledge), the only notes that are not on the scale would be notes we can't hear, and obviously we were able to hear that note, and actually as I'm writing this, I realise that no that's wrong, because even notes we can't hear would be on the scale, I also just remembered that the world record holder for the lowest voice, can hit a so low that only elephants can hear the note. If you turn on captions, he says (dramatic bend to a low f#) edit:not to undermine the comment or be rude, (sorry if it came across that way), I just wanted to clear this up, and also pose a question if there is a singing scale you know about that I don't. and of course hes still an amazing singer, I do agree with you on that part.

    Curiously enough I might agree with him. He sounds like a baritone and a high one at that. He obviously has an incredible range and he know how to manage his low notes. Timbre and range are different things.

    @@idraote What makes someone a *true* bass, then? I'm asking seriously, because I simply don't know. I thought that these categories were based on range, not timbre, and Geoff is capable of hitting low notes that are well outside the typical range for baritone.

    @@henrybrice86 first, one must say that voice fachs (I think they are called that way in English) are just a convenient shorthand. There are six main fachs (Bass, baritone, tenor, alto, mezzo, soprano) but you will hear many more subdivisions because voices are unique just like our faces or our fingerprints. I trained as a classical baritone and through the years I have developed an ear for the singing voice(s). To my ear, Geoff is particularly difficult to classify. I should hear him in person without a microphone and even then I am not sure I could give an answer. Within these limits, he sounds like a very agile and light baritone. He has a light, smooth voice and he can sing very high without apparent effort. Very young basses can have a developed high range, but that goes away with age and Geoff, handsome though he is, must be over 40. The elephant in the room is that he can sing very low with no apparent effort. This is why it would be essential to hear him unamplified. I would need to know how his low notes resonate in a large room. A true bass would be able to make them resonate in a large space without pushing and straining himself. If he is a baritone as I suspect, his low notes wouldn't be heard without a microphone. The real fach of a voice does not depend on the range - which can be big or small - but on the range the singer is really comfortable singing in. And by comfortable I mean able to sing all day long without strain.

    There are several versions of this tunes, but this is my absolute favourite. I just love Geoff Castellucci's 'multiplication' and how each character behaves differently - not to mention the variety of voices. VERY amusing!🤩
