Because you're mine... I walk the line.

How great was Johnny Cash, right? I've said it a million times that I'd like to (at some point) find the time to record an entire album of his work, but until such a time exists, we all have to make do with one at a time at a time at a time. time after time. time in a bottle. timeywimey.

I mention it in the preamble, but we really did want to get this filmed and out to you sooner than this, but alas the wacky Florida weather was not cooperating. I hope the wait was no too terrible and that you love what we made for you. PERKS ON THE WAY!

That was just lovely! Can't go wrong with a song about coffee, right?

Loralei Dragon

I'm a big Johny Cash fan and I think you did this beautifully! The changes gave it a different feel but didn't detract at all.

Megan Hammer

Geoff, I am so excited! This is one of my favorite songs!

Debs Badger

I think you did a lovely job with it, G.

Ashley Evers

You have me crying again. This is just deeply beautiful, thank you so much.

Sarah Martin

This is such a beautiful cover! Thank you!!

Manasi Kane

You and Johnny Cash 🥰 My year is off to a great start, I had I walk the line on my wish list for you to cover ! Beautiful version ❤️ thank you for this Geoff !

Mikki Fullerton

Was certainly not expecting that rhythm change, but I like how it turned out!

Gaisha Ziapour Edwards

Gosh, this voice of yours, I love anything you sing..thank you for sharing..👌❤️🌹 wish you success, health and happiness always. Love the song..

John Sarro

Yes! I remember commenting a request for this song on your Sixteen Tons video. Dreams can come true haha

Rachel P.

LOVED IT! And really, really loved seeing Kathy and that most wonderous liquid ever discovered, my go-juice, the nectar of the gods that tastes like hopes and dreams: coffee.

Wendy Allen

Love it! We all love coffee ☕️☕️

Alessandra Novaes

I loved the cover you did of this song... And Yes, I'm old too.

Karin Wolf

Waiting WAS terrible... but SO worth it... thank you!

Kathy Matysek

Fantastic! And love that you were a black jacket!

Lois McCray

How did I know Kathy would make a guest appearance? Plus she brought you coffee. Perfect ending.

Olivia Edwards

Love Johnny Cash, Live your cover of the song, and Coffee.. yum😁👍 Amazing job as always ❤️

Pat P

It feels happy and nostalgic, yet sad at the same time. I guessed I’m confused… 😅 Oooohh, pin…

Marie Galaxy

There are no words for how much I love this cover! Actually, there are soooooo many words, I can’t choose!! Definitely, definitely, worth the wait! 😻

Ilona Dever

Absolutely wonderful, of course. And we all know it's about Kathy. We can see it in your eyes!

Daniel Sarnik

You never cease to amaze! What a nice touch bringing Kathy in at the end. Simple video but beautiful arrangement, I’m sure Johnny would have loved it! Great job 👏🏻

Sarah Borzelli

Wow, Geoff, what a beautiful take! The harmonies on 'mine' ahhh so soothing! I like the very subtle embellishments on the vocals, just the right amount. Love that you included some humming. You made another song unboring - while keeping it simple, you made such interesting and pleasant changes to it. Love it how you managed to keep that 'hopping' country guitar rhythm pattern while making the song so sweet and gentle! The location is really pretty and idyllic. Good call to shoot with a steadycam! The ending with Kathy is so adorable😍!

Talbot

I hate coffee but I love me some Johnny Cash. I'm 100% behind you if you ever decide to make a JC album. THIS song was beautiful, thank you!

Maria Moore

Such a sweet subtle video nice to see Kathy with your precious coffee. ❤️ xxx

Tonia Richardson

Geoff, Geoff, Geoff. There is no fine for having the good sense to surrender to Mother Nature, and in your case, it will always be worth the wait for your releases. Definitely the case here! Beautiful job! Time in a Bottle, though, is Jim Croce, haha. I'd love to hear you cover that, time permitting.... Mahalo from Kauai, where we are intimately familiar with weather, Mother Nature, and surrender. Bless up!! And LOVE your humour!

Salym Spellwyck

As much as I loved that video, I'm in love with the outro piano/synth piece too. That could be a great song!

Silv E

You gave this song so much sweetness and warmth! ❤️No disrespect to Johnny Cash, but I like your version better. (Um, is your record player magic? It plays for several minutes and magically jumps back to the beginning?)

Jacky Friedman

And yet again Geoff takes a song I don't like by an artist I don't like, sprinkle his magic and makes love it with tears in my eyes and a smile on my face 🥲. Thank you Geoff this song with your beautiful and amazing voice. Hi Kathy. Thank you for giving me a huge smile when you came out and sat down with Geoff 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨. It's always great seeing you and I wish we could see you more often. It's always a treat when you are in any Geoff or VP videos. Love you both 💗💙 Oh? And the comment at the end? I thought you were going to say "In reality this song is about you guys". I about doubled over laughing when said coffee instead 🤣. Thank you for brightening my evening in so many ways. Especially after the day of tests. Yeah 4. Oh. Well. Fantastic way to end my day 😄

Janis Carney

Beautiful. Well worth the wait.

Born Ancient

Rare is the musician who can arrange & deliver a cover that improves its depth & richness while keeping its authenticity! Goosebumps & shivers! ( and its not from the iced coffee I'm drinking) World class! What a gift!

Blue Raven

Hmm - I think I see a pattern emerging with these "middle of the night" hidden premieres. I always plan to work late, see the premiere and then go home to catch a couple of hours sleep 💤 - and once again - Nope! 🥴 Now I will be humming happily about coffee the rest of the night instead of sleeping... 🎶 Thank you for the music. It was absolutely brilliant, and it's always fun to see, how you can make old & boring, new & interesting. Definitely worth the wait!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐... ⭐ And so nice to see Kathy in the video as well - she's a true gem! 💎

Maggie S

Most Excellent!

Sue D

A beautiful rendition of the song; I'm sure Johnny would approve. Your changes were subtle and beautiful, honoring both song and singer.

Carol Franklin

Well that was worth the wait!!! Beautiful cover & gorgeous video & KATHY 🎉

Marlene

Love it! I know you were hoping for a January air date, but it is perfectly released in time for Valentine's Day.☺️

Stacey V.

You said you were cooking up something good. Well Geoff, You must have spilled the sugar because that came out SWEET ! I really like it, and I wish I had a porch like that as well. Thank you and Yes it was worth the wait.

Leigh D

Timeywimey 🥰 If you know, you know.

Sarah Borzelli

I just noticed I hear more steps than you actually do at the beginning when you put your jacket on. Or they seem not to be exactly aligned. Maybe...or maybe my night brain is playing tricks on me. Did I mention I love your take on this song? Yes? Ok.

Katherine Powell

Gah, you two stop being so cute! Okay, you got me, I was just kidding....never stop. This is such a sweet rendition of this song, Geoff. It makes me smile. And I immediately went and bought that pin. It will go with my collection on my con bag, nestled somewhere near my VP and infinite gramophone pins.

Katherine Powell

How did I not even realize that?! So sweet. :D

Deborah Krach

Great job Geoff. I love your version of this song.

Leigh D

Nothing like listening to Geoff sing Johnny Cash to send me to my happy place 🥰

Shari Hibberd

A whole album of Johnny...Yes Please!!!!

Cloudy Skies

Well, you took a song that I liked but didn't love and created a charming, heart-warming declaration of eternal affection...brought to beautiful, tear-generating fruition with Kathy's cameo. Well, that and coffee ☕️ .

Michele Hearns

Better than the original - even Mr Cash would agree! 😉

KorKnot

Thank you for this very well-done song/video. Nice to see you both. 😃

Judi B E

I was never a Johnny Cash fan. Far from it. However, I love his songs that you have done. Your voice is so soothing it makes all the difference. We will wait patiently for a full album.

Gard

Love it!!

Lynn M

I was actually thinking toward the end of the year last year about you doing another Johnny Cash song. I thought about how everyone requests Ring of Fire, Highwayman, or Jackson. I thought, well maybe a Geoff would do a love song with I Walk The Line. Based on the various clues I had figured we were getting “Country Geoff”, so I and others assumed King of the Road. I squealed when I saw the notification for I Walk the Line. I loved the chill, almost lullaby, vibe of the song. Another Dusty Ole Song upgraded. Also the Kathy cameo was so adorable.

SunnyOutlook

This was perfect! Lovely what you did with it. Great for Valentines coming up as well. I was wondering if Kathy would make an appearance, and she did. Very nice!

BethSparkles

His songs are prefect for you to sing. LYITOWIA

Ruth Ballinger

{'m sick and i fell asleep dang it to hades!!!

Grand Nagus

As i am a huge JR Cash fan, i couldn't be happier!! Having Kathy be a part of it, bringing you coffee, is HUGE to me! I love this so much. She knows what's best for you, Geoff. Trust in Kathy! Thank you for this simple, yet wonderful rendition of one of my favorite JR Cash songs.

Pickle Sandwich

-sticks a note reading ‘A Boy Named Sue’ in the request box-

Ellen L Brownell

Am always willing to wait patiently for your videos because the end results never fail to wow me. A double wow for your rendition of Walk the Line. Although, I can tell I'll now have this pesky earworm to contend with. Not that I mind all that much.

Jeanette Pencz

Wow 😍 what a wonderful way to start my day. I love this song so much and you made a fantastic cover of it. I am a sucker for coffee- therefore I totally agree with you 😉😁

Filiz E

What a lovely treat to wake up to! Loved your take on the song, the video is beautiful and it's great seeing Kathy at the end.. Thank you Geoff!!

Ruth Feiertag

You did an amazing job of making this song your own while respecting Mr. Cash's legacy and taking nothing from that. Like others, I also was happy to see Kathy. Your love for each other always lifts me spirits. Thank you for this beautiful rendition.

Miran Tideturner

Beautiful song and a lovely ending scene. Don't you worry about the wait, this was worth it, and would have been worth waiting for for ANY reason.

Kevin Åkerberg

Amazing job Geoff as always! The outside shoot was very nice. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Sweden 🤗

Veronika Troll

Amazing version! How lucky is the coffee to have a song like this:))

ChazyUK

loved the song Geoff, I actually know it haha and sing it badly to myself, my mum was a big fan of JC. Ordered the broach too, couldn't resist, though I should haha but its so cute : ) Kathy with you at the end wrapped the song up so lovely, oh and I really want to live in that house : )

Tom Peavy

Can I be THAT guy? Listen, it was good. It was very good, actually. But, as far as making me go HOLY F@&$, it was just, meh. No hate, just one man’s opinion who Geoff has made lose their doo doo multiple times.

Karen Campbell

What a great start to the day in a sunny (for once) Scotland. I really loved it and the small changes to it.

Rachel Dempsey

This was my reward after a long day at work trying to meet a deadline. I told myself I couldn’t watch it until I got what I needed done so let’s just say for once my procrastination was at an all time low. Worth the wait. I don’t know why but this just made me feel happy 😊 a beautiful chill yet intricate cover. Can’t say much more, other than you two are a pair of freakin cuties. 🥰

ANITA M WRIGHT

This is so very awesome. Geoff you have done it once again!

Hunter

Well, after my anxiety has been beating me senseless lately, this is just the "Whoa, slow down there, Hunt..." type of vibe. A good reminder that not all things have to be face paced in this world to be appreciated. This one will take time to grow on me, but it was still very subtle. Thanks Geoff.

Lynn Moonwake

I knew some song of Cash’s music but wasn’t too familiar. Your covers inspired me to look more into him and now I’m a big fan! That being said, I still listen more to your fabulous covers haha. And this is yet another beautifully done rendition about coffee☕️😍 Also why was the record player still at the beginning of the vinyl in the middle of the song? Yes I noticed, and yes it irks me unnecessarily 😂😅

Ed Mitchell

Sadly have to agree. Love 99% of Geoffs work but this was just a little off. Vocals are amazing as ever but it has lost the dynamic feel of the original. It doesn’t have the railroad feel.

Daniel Sarnik

It might be not as jaw dropping, but it does give me a peaceful vibe and makes me think of my wife which can’t be bad 😆

Daniel Sarnik

Seriously though did I imagine Geoff posting about “the longest time”?! It doesn’t seem to be on Patreon posts anymore?

Debs Badger

Um...wrong Patreon campaign?

Daniel Sarnik

Thanks Debs, I think because it had a picture of Geoff as the thumbnail I assumed it was his post lol 🤦🏻‍♂️

Agnes EvaR

As much as I love Carol of the Bells, there's not much I can say about this one - except that I love it, too! From the bottom of my heart. I really like the lovely vibe of the song. For me it's way better than the original. And since I know the song is about coffee, I love it even more. Somehow that info adds another dose of warmth to the song. Speaking of warmth. You have a lot of timbres I like, but this warm, rich tone is my favorite. I could listen to it forever. Besides your voice, the instrumentation adds a lot to the mood of your songs. This song is no exception, I love listening to the different instruments, rhythm devices, other sound effects! The part starting around 3:05 reminds me of one of your other songs. I think it's Wicked Game, but now I'll have to listen to your repertoire just to be sure.

V

OMG! Just when I think G can't top his last project....there you go! Huge Johnny Cash fan here😍 and G just adds his own special touch for a prrrrrect experience. I think I am gonna skip work, curl up in bed and listen to it like all dat 🤣....and get fired possibly....one can dream Great ending! Love to see them together

Rev Jessie

I grew up listening to that album at my godfather’s house on lazy Sunday afternoons. This brought back so many happy memories. I love Mr. Castellucci’s version even better though.

Emma Yadkin

Well worth the wait, but lets be real. Coffee is why you can walk at all.

Lana

A good coffee after work in front of the fireplace... I am listening and watching a great artist and singer with a fantastic voice. I really like Johnny Cash, but Geoff was able to raise it to such a level that on this quiet afternoon I realized that it is possible to make better than the original. What you did with this song is amazing! A huge thank you for that! And the closing shot... Kathy and Geoff... The cutest perfect couple!

V

Picking up on our sidebar few 100 texts earlier about G and booze pairing.... Wine or Bourbon with this one? I am feeling some Eagle Rare or Buffalo Trace....But before 5p maybe some strong and dark Lavazza because after all, it is all about the coffee

Scott Boa

I can't wait for it to go public. Great job. You should do another couple Johnny Cash songs; A Boy Named Sue, and One Piece at a Time.

Scott Boa

I love the appearance by Kathy at the end. You've got to teach her to sing.

Sharon Bapp

Not a JC fan. Yours is much better and with a fantastic range. As far as the song, Cash had one redeeming feature, a raw driving force that could push a song forward. This version while sung beautifully seemed to miss it. It was repetitive without the drive. The little tinkling accompaniment of the record player didn’t add much. Love your music so much and this was good but somehow missed the mark slightly. Loved Kathy joining you with the coffee🤗

chaaard_

Great rendition! If I may request a song, can it be your own take of Your Man?

Jonna J

Finally the lyrics make sense, especially the part about keeping eyes wide open all the time... Definitely prefer this version to the original one.

Wolfhardt

Yes, exactly my thoughts & feelings, every word! 👍❤️

Wolfhardt

Oh yeah, l am dreaming of a Geoff (or VP) rendition of Time in a Bottle since l entered this creative rabbit hole! 👍❤️

IsabellA

Finally, you managed to get your hands on a vinyl reader, like all of us old, REALLY old people. Maybe you even managed to find a CD reader, too? Love, love the song, the contrary would have been a real surprise.

Lori Chaslot

You hit another one out of the park ❣️

Lynda Rood

I would love for you to do a whole album of Johnny Cash songs, it would be amazing.

Alison L

Really enjoyed it

Grace Files

Wow Geoff this is amazing😍 I really love your take on this classic song, I thought that I didn't know it at first but then it clicked once you started singing it😂 I love how you did the arrangement for this one, it is so calming to me and just gives off such chill vibes. And it is the perfect song for this month. I also love the video, it is simple but perfect for this kind of song and the ending with you and Kathy was adorable🥹 Thank you so much for this masterpiece, I cannot wait for the world to see this soon!!❤️

Debs Badger

Kathy could sing. She used to make a living of it. However, with her hearing loss and other issues, it's not something she does anymore.

Tonia Richardson

And how about Rapid Roy! Roller Derby Queen! ALL of Jim Croce's character songs! YES, please!

Cécile Roussey

I really like your clip and the way you sing this song Geoff <3 with Kathy towards the end, it’s so beautiful <3 It's magic for me ^^ <3

Sandy Nickell

I LOVE the ending! The FIRST ending!

Sarah Reach

I mean... if you want to get nitpicky, I Walk the Line isn't even on that album... ✨Movie Magic✨

Liz Dyson

Hi Geoff, I think you and Kathy should due together. How about doing islands in the stream😀.

Lynn Moonwake

It’s clearly a magic turntable that can play any song you want and doesn’t require a moving needle because of it🪄🙈

Connor Farrell

omg you HAVE to do Hurt at some point. i can only imagine how good it will be

Tema Krempley

Would you believe this is the first time I’ve heard the song I Walk The Line… You might have spoiled me for the original! The first ending is perfect.

Beckie Henry

Wow - Johnny would truly have been impressed. I never met him, but my mother sang with him in the "early days" in Nashville and my sister remembers him from when she was tiny. She tells me he was a very sweet guy. Funny, as far as I can tell, you are, too! HMMM.

Amy Petty

LOL - new record players aren't at all hard to find. Vinyl is popular these days.

Amy Petty

Kathy *can* sing.

Jacky Friedman

Agree. Never cared for Johnny Cash's singing. To gritty and country for me so that made me not care for his songs. So far Geoff has gotten a million out of a million in sprinkling his magic dust and turning every Johnny sing he's done into one I absolutely love me This one is going on my lullaby playlist as soon as it goes public. The list are songs fall asleep by and wake up to. Many of Geoff's similar to this are on it. As well as some of Voiceplay and a couple of orchestra pieces. What I listen to is what I am singing to in my head at the time. My choices for Voiceplay are not what you would expect for a lullaby list they work

Hwyla

Squeeeee! I know you had said it was on the list but I didn't expect it so soon!!! Now one small comment on the video - it feels a little strange that when you get a close-up of the record playing (@4:20), the needle is still way at the beginning of the song instead of where it would have been if the record was really playing as implied. That might not be so weird to those who are not used to real records, but as an older gal who grew up on records, it looks very strange to me.

Hwyla

One other thing - I think it's cute that you're sitting on the steps (again) with Kathy coming in at the end. A throwback to VP's "Daddy Sang Bass" ending. Also - I really love the idea of using the record player when you use the older gramophone as your logo - neat consistency!

Debs Badger

With Kathy's hearing loss and diplacusus disharmonica, singing isn't something she does anymore.

Scott Boa

There are plenty other Johnny Cash songs that I would love to hear you do: - Going By The Book - One Piece at a Time - 25 Minutes To Go - A Boy Named Sue - Ring of Fire

Liz Dyson

Sorry I didn't think.

Cécile Roussey

As well I listened to the original, and honestly, I prefer the version by Geoff... it’s softer, more fluid, it flows well... and it’s even more pleasant to listen ^^ And when I see Kathy towards the end etc... I said "ho!" because it was a surprise and in addition, it is a person that I like very much Kathy! The clip is well done, from the beginning to the end, where they enjoy a cup of tea or coffee while chatting together... ! ^^

Lady D Richter

I think it would be funny to trade the pin at Disney World!

Christine

Love the instrumentation. I find the strange harmonies weirdly fascinating. Nothing spectacular re Geoff's range, just beautifully low and comforting. He doesn't fool us about the song being about coffee does he? I like the Johnny Cash version but Geoff's is more intimate - a real love song.

Maria Rydström

What a lovely version of this song Geoff🙏and a wonderful video.And it’s perfekt to dedicate a song to something you love😂i was 3 years old when i drank coffe for the first time. It was my grandfather who introduced me to it. Now i drink it black but in the beginning it was a lot of cream and suger in it😂

Judi B E

When you pivoted are you not glad that you were not in a stairway trying to move a long sofa? Think "Friends" for "pivot" and coffee.

Édua Elster

Where can I buy those Pins? 😭 can’t find them. Are they sold out? Its so Bad I can’t pay with paypal. It needs always so much time to transfere Money to my Credit Card. 😭

Judi B E

I ordered mine but they have not arrived yet. Update, they arrived and they are wonderful. I say they because I ordered the infinite gramophone also. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Silv E

Btw I was too flustered at the time and then forgot to say, but a turquoise record player in this video at this time is a crazy synchronicity from my perspective! So: thanks for making my world a little more magical, in more ways than one.

Jacky Friedman

If they're still available at the beginning of the month I'm going to order one.

Édua Elster

Thank you! It was a Bug in my Browser. 🫣 But now I was able to order. ❤️

donna stockwell

You can sing Johnny Cash like no one else can.. That's so wonderful and brings back memories of dancing with my dad to his music . Thank you .❤️🤗

Zoie McIntyre

That was absolutely fantastic! Thank you Geoff. xo
