"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.

@@curvball12 Respectfully it isn't anywhere near as good as the original which has such charm and swag, Ernie Ford sells the character far more, has a better tone, and a far better accompaniment made up of talented musicians. 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.

Sixteen Tons" is a song written by Merle Travis about a coal miner, based on life in the mines of Muhlenberg County, Kentucky.[2] Travis first recorded the song at the Radio Recorders Studio B in Hollywood, California, on August 8, 1946. 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.

Fun fact- after labor laws were introduced coal companies would pay there employees scrips(credits which could be used for rent in company housing or companies stores.The average coal miner wouldn't have enough for rent and food so they would end up going into debt with the company and would continue to be in debt until they died and they couldnt afford to stop working until they were fired or dead.Thats were the saying "I owe my soul to the company store" came from and why he brings up 16 tons because that was usually the daily quota per miner.

@elizabethschmidt4030 3 года назад

Yup. They did that in eastern and western Kentucky. The mining company came in and bought the mineral rights to the farms where I grew up in central Kentucky. 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. My dad was at the meeting. He said he was seriously scared for the guy. He needed to just stop talking and go.

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.

@johndeeregreen4592 3 года назад

Honestly, those notes can be hit by many bass singers (I can hit every low note in this with ease). It's Geoff's vocal agility and arrangement that sets him apart from most singers. I even have a similar high range to Geoff, but his ability to access that range at-will is insane!

Actually the song was written by Merle Travis. He recorded it in August 1946 and Capitol released it in July 1947. “The line ‘You load sixteen tons and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt’ came from a letter written by Travis's brother John. Another line came from their father, a coal miner, who would say: ‘I can't afford to die. I owe my soul to the company store.’” It was Tennessee Ernie Ford’s 1955 version that quickly became a million seller and was No. 1 on the Billboard country music chart for 10 weeks. It then moved over to their pop music chart for 8 weeks. (for more see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixteen_Tons)

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!

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.

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.

Another day older and deeper in debt Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store, yeah I was born one morning, in the drizzlin' rain The fightin' and trouble have been my middle name I was raised in the cane brake by an old mama lion Can't no high-toned woman make me walk the line Yeah, 16 tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store I owe my soul If you see me comin' better step aside A lot of men didn't, a lot of men died One fist of iron and the other of steel If the left one don't getcha then the right one will You load 16 tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go Saint Peter, don't you call me, but to the company store Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go I owe my soul To the company store Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go

Mr. Castelluci: I have "graduated" to this, your site, from Voiceplay, which I had only discovered a few months ago. You don't need me to compliment your magnificent voice or your remarkable performances. I am old enough (73) to remember Tennessee Ernie Ford singing this in the '50's and his haunting rendition is surpassed only by yours. Thank you. Wishing you continued success. A question: Have you ever performed in Italian or done classic Italian works?
