I've always meant to finish this track and now I did. So here it is!

Completely finished and all shiny and new... just like me. 💀

Those of you that aren't aware, I released "Further on up the Road" as a short back in 2023, which feels like decades ago at this point, and folks really seemed to like the darker, minimal vibe so i leaned into that with the full track...for better or for worse.

We've got new artwork comin at ya for the single release and the whole thing should be going public next week. Thanks again for everything and ENJOY!

Very happy! Hoping for more full versions from your short vids!

Always a treat to have just you and a piano. Sounding good, as always!

Soo nice to have a longer version of this. 😃

It is perfect! Thank you so much!

I'm so excited! Can't listen now because I'm visiting with my mom, but I'll listen soon! Yay!

Miran Tideturner

My birthday is more than 3 weeks away, but you've already given me the best gift I could have hoped for.

Lois McCray

Thank you. I'm eager to share this everywhere. ❤️

Geoff!!!! I don't know what it is with this song (your version)...it just hits a soft spot and moves me to tears...I thought I was past the point of having to cry over the short - boom - it hit me again. In a good way! It just touches me deeply. It feels like finally coming home after being lost for a long time. You're right, I really like the minimal vibe of both the music and the video, it makes you focus on your beautiful voice and wonderful way of singing and really underlines the emotion of the song. That was also a great use of those tubular bells, they're subtle, yet present, calling from further on up the road. ❤️ Geoff, I can't tell you enough how happy you make me with your beautiful music and how grateful I am!

Susan Pratt

That was hauntingly beautiful, Geoff! I loved it. Thank you, and thank you to all of you! I appreciate everything you guys do for us. Love you all!!!

Susana

Thank you Geoff for sharing it with us and I would have never guessed that the tubular bells were for that song. Have a great weekend. / once you said you don't like making your shorts as full versions, but... it seems as if everything changes.

Dame Valiant

The song is absolutely beautiful, and long awaited! But gosh darn does the ending gives me whiplash! One day I'll just die because... laughter 🤣

Manasi Kane

This was one of the first newly released songs of yours I watched when I joined your Patreon, Geoff ! I always hoped for a full version because this song was yours! I know your song exists because of the original but my heart and soul were committed to your version and I am so glad you kept it in that same minimal vibe ❤️ I am just so happy that this beautiful version is now complete and I have more than a minute and change to feel melancholy about ❤️ Grateful for your music, Geoff ! Thank you !

David Wanderer

that has gone *straight* through my spine. You've taken everything that was incredible about the short and then added more incredible on top. Powerful stuff.

Rachel Dempsey

Yay! One of my most played shorts from yourself! Love it!!

Daniel Anderson

What can I even say that I or someone else haven't already said? Epic? Totally. Bassy? The bassiest. Am I excited? As always I am SO excited for this! Further on Up the Road is one of my favorite shorts from you Geoff! Glad this one was easier on you, you deserve a break! 😊 Also, one final note, love the dramatic glasses take off😁

Jill Weimer Koeninger 🐉

What a wonderful early birthday gift for me! I am a Jedi, of course 😎 May 4th is my day. I followed Audrey Hepburn and Star Wars followed us!

Leslie Langfitt

So glad to know I'm not the only one who reacts with strong emotion to this version 🥹

Crisstina Joubert

Thank you, this is wonderful!! Very moody, and beautiful piano music! Thanks for the laughs with Queen Kathy at the end, too!❤️❤️🥰😍

Sarah Borzelli

oh I also wanted to mention I really like the detail with the windows and that elevated t-shirt (which has a great pattern that reminds me of asphalt, if that was chosen on purpose, I'm impressed at your styling abilities and at your attention to detail) - simple with a touch of je-ne-sais-quoi - the video is just as captivating as the sound

Zoie McIntyre

I absolutely love this Geoff - it is now one of my favs for sure. I love the outtakes too ;) Thank you so much. xoxo

Barbara Shuman

This is really beautiful. Your voice just "purrs" and there's no other like it. Love it, Geoff, thank you.

Beth Comer

This is so very, very good, and I was definitely one of the people hoping you'd revisit this song. The full version is well worth the wait; it's such a moody, atmospheric piece, and your voice complements it perfectly. I can't wait to listen to it a few thousand more times!

KB👑

May is the best month.. my birthday!!! i feel so honoured i now get access to your dusty ol face😂😂 lll be just as old and dusty on the 31st 😂😂😂Love ya - Bailey

Manasi Kane

I got lost in the song 🤣 but now that I notice it - 🤓Hey everybody, 😄 it’s me - thank you for keeping that up 🤣 Kathy is a saint , that is all 🤣❤️!

Jill Peterson

It's said a song that practically writes itself is a song the world has been waiting for. Thanks for covering this song

Suzann Harris

Whoa . . . Beautiful . . . Just beautiful . . .

Happy Leaf

Love the simplicity. I feel satisfied with every aspect (and astonished by how the tubular bells slid right into the texture). Thank you, Geoff!

Leigh D

That is right in the pocket 🥰 Now I need to listen a few more times and continue my melt 🫠

Gretchen G

So, so happy to hear your full version of this! It's my favorite short, and now this is just wonderful. 🩵

Ginia (gin-ya)

I really like the variety in this compared to the short. It stays interesting in many ways. The control you have with the rumbly, gritty low is so impressive.

Sallaward

Thank you, Geoff. This is the song I’ve been waiting for: just (relatively) simple Geoff and his piano!!

B Sprak

This song means a lot to me. If I planned to have a funeral (which I don't. a party, yes, no funeral or memorial , uh uh), this would be top of the list. It's full of hope that you're off to meet those that have gone on before you, like friends, family, and especially cats & dogs! 🙃 Thank you so much for making such a beautiful rendition of this song. It's just gorgeous! 😊 😢

Katherine Powell

Not only have I been wanting a full version of this song since the short, but we also get the dramatic glasses removal at the beginning of the video? This is all I need.

Talbot

YES! This is one of the shorts I really wanted you to expand. Thanks so much. Also, I'm glad to see you're still collapsing. "I can't do it again!" 😂

Lynn M

G the short version of this song is on the calm playlist I use when my anxiety gets bad. I am so happy to have the full version now.

Jen

This song is a journey that has come full circle

Kendra

YES YES YES!! AH YAY! JUST THE BEST FRIDAY NEWS!

Delila Hall

Definitely for better. I LOVE this.

Judi B E

Being honest here. I had to listen a 2nd time to listen just for the bells. Absolutely poignant. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🔔🔔🕯🕯

Ashley Evers

This has always been at the top of my list of songs I wanted you to expand to a full song, and I was entirely right 😁🤣 It’s going to take all week to figure out the right words for how happy this makes me 😁

Jeanette Pencz

You really did it! I cried from the first note to the last. The song alone moves me deeply, but with your voice and the piano accompaniment – ​​simply heavenly. The short version already thrilled me, but now the full version – wow! Your voice is a true gift, and I'm so grateful to be able to hear it.

Tine

Oohh thank you. I adore this short

Karin Wolf

PURRFECTION... love it!! 🥰😂

Cécile Roussey

Thank you Geoff, a captivating voice when you sing, and as always, I enjoyed listening to you sing and watching you... and towards the end, the bonus, I had a laugh ^^ You’re acting the clown like always and Kathy is laughing ^^ so funny... I didn’t expect it at all... lol ^^ As always, you have a sense of humor lol And also, as always, I repeat it again and again, ALL your versions of the songs, I prefer your version to the original because the original, I don’t listen until the end but with you, with your version, I take pleasure in listening them until the end ^^

Anja Eder

Oh My God!!!!!! You did it!!!!!!!Since the short version, I've been completely captivated by this song, and it was my deepest wish that you would make a full version....Thanks alot!!!!!You are my absolute hero!!!!!

Rahel

💗💗💗🥹

Mia

Thank you so much. My very favourite short by more than a dark marked mile ♥️ If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Just make it last longer.

Lenka Z.

I love it! Totally and absolutely. For me personally, there is nothing better than "just" Geoff and piano. Like this. Or Wicked Game. Or High and Dry. I love it. This one is definitely going on repeat.

Alison L

Beautiful, just beautiful

ChazyUK

I don't know the song but hey it never matters and to be honest its kind of nice not knowing sometimes. I will very soon get into the swing of it. Think I need a few more plays to get the words and the story telling behind the song down, its early here and I need more coffee lol. Your voice is amazing on this Geoff, I love that its ''very low'' to my ears but like steady and intentional ( hope that makes sense, I am no music theory genius, always learning though lol ) I could swear that horrid bad flu made your voice even deeper if that is even possible, you sound fab as always : ) Now off for more listens, I want to understand that journey down the road : ) Oh and off to listen to the short too cos I always somehow miss shorts from anyone, its a thing with me, I must miss lots of greatness, note to self, need to do better with shorts and minis : )

Wolfhardt

A man and his piano, going down a dark, somber road... Perfection 😍

PetraH

Oh wow Geoff, this is so so so good! 🥰 The stripped down version, beautiful piano and what a perfect placement of the tubular bells 🔔 - so beautiful! I was hoping you would do a full version of Further On Up The Road, but would have never guessed it is this song based on the tubular bell teaser. 😁 Thanks so much for granting us this wish, loving it 🥹

Sheila Ross

Love it! Please please please do more like this?

Sheila Ross

And thanks, now I'm hooked on Johnny Cash as well 🤣🤣

Maria Rydström

This is beautyful Geoff and i love that deep deep voice of course and that you are playing the piano❤️

Nathan Wahl

Do-overs are a rare opportunity, but not always does it work. And I bet the reason it came together quickly is because your brain had a lot of time to noodle on it in the background, especially since you wanted to ever since the short. And it definitely shows in the arrangement. It stayed stark and dark, simple yet rich. The chords you use were well selected to convey the same feeling as the lyrics, matched by the expected vocal performance. It would have been easy to overcomplicate, nice that you kept it straightforward. Overall very well done, definitely one of your best.

Beth Comer

Just noticed a continuity glitch- during the brief piano bridge in the middle, the keyboard closeups show a cellphone on the top of the piano, while in the full shots it's gone. No idea how noticeable it is to most people; I didn't clock it until my third time watching it through.

Beth Comer

I'm really glad I'm not the only one who had that thought about this song being the perfect send off, and this version in particular. The perfect punctuation to life, and one last chance to push Geoff's music on everyone around me.

PetraH

Good catch, Beth. I only saw it now after reading your comment.

Miran Tideturner

I can't wait for the public release. New artwork sounds intriguing... maybe something that would look great on a shirt as well?

Filiz E

This one was my absolute favourite short piece of music of yours!! A full version is definitely a dream come true!🥰 Thank you so much!

Shirli Walker

Pure liquid dark chocolate, melting, melting…….

Janis Carney

Thank you for doing the whole song. Really moving.

Stephanie Graham

Beautifully heart wrenching. When you listen to the lyrics in this depth, it twists the knife a little

Tracy K

Another vocal weighted blanket/hug. Sounds amazing (as always). Thanks all.

Silv E

Oh, Geoff!!! I've had a full version on my wish list for like, 25 years, and this is just perfect. The more minimal approach is just the thing for this song. It gives it such a powerful impact. And oh, that piano! ❤️

Christine

Loved that you've finally made this into a full song. Those low tones just melt me, and the piano playing is beautiful. Thanks so much.

Raymond Sturz

The best that I've heard since Johnny Cash's version!

Agnes EvaR

When you said Wayfaring Stranger was a good guess, I automatically thought it was going to be a Johnny Cash song (I know WS isn’t originally his). I really like the minimal vibe of the song and the video. I was glad you started it exactly the same way as your short version and just kept going. As much as I usually love your interesting, complex instrumentals, I’m really enjoying the simplicity this time. Even so, there are still some interesting sounds in the background. Your voice gives me chills throughout the whole song. Thank you! P.S.: I’m hoping you’ll finish Wayfaring Stranger in the not-too-distant future — and continue it in the same vibe as the short. I really love the way you started it.

Jamie T.

OMG thank you so much for this Geoff. I'm not a big fan of mini/shorts but your short of this has been my favorite since it came out in 2023. To have a full version has fulfilled a dream & it most certainly did not disappoint! Looking forward to the BTS for this; looks like you were giving Kathy a hard time, LOL and I believe that was Layne I heard?

Shirley Patton

Was wishing and hoping, and now here it is! Definitely worth waiting for!!!

Geoff A

I love Geoff's bass, don't get me wrong, it's what got me interested in VoicePlay and his solo work. But the thing that really impressed me over time is his arranging skills, and the creativity he brings to every performance! Bravo, Geoff!

Jonna J

I'm so glad you decided to release this as a full song. This song was one that sparked me to resume learning to play the piano. There is something really soothing and calming in this song, that cheers me up on a stressful day. P.S your phone is visible in the video on top of the piano near the midpoint of the song where the piano part is when the piano keyboard is shown, but not when the camera goes back out

Veronica Thunander

I love it!! Your version is beautiful! Please note that it is Bruce Springsteen who did the original, not Johnny Cash (whom you hashtaged in your short and who's also done a cover). Bruce's version of this from "live in Dublin" is also amazing and very different from his studio version. I recommend to check it out!

Suzy Bailey

Just gorgeous! I'm so very happy this is now a full song and the set and lighting is perfect, thanks for the warm, mellow hug! 💜

Ms Molly

I am always stunned by how you release songs that speak to me directly. Your voice is the exact purring, relaxing, beautiful tone I need right now. I've been in the hospital this past week with an arterial tear that's inoperable because of where it is, and surgery's too dangerous in my condition (cancer, doing chemo), so I have to slow down. Maintaining super low BPs because the pressure can make it tear further/burst. No more protests for me. No politics, nothing to rile me up. Just PEACE. These lyrics feel like it's saying you're going through a difficult time, a lonely time, yet it speaks with the certainty that you'll catch up with your companions further on up the road. And that is exactly where I am right now. Even got the "dead man's suit" on! And while their lives are kinda going on without me, when I get through this, I'm gonna catch up to them. You know your *Unshaken* has been my fight song as I deal with this cancer and the chemo. "May I stand unshaken amidst the crash of the world." I heard it at the beginning of this fight, and it's been a constant companion through it. This one is now too. I want you to know your music, the beauty you put out into the world, it's doing good for people in ways you may NEVER know. Keep doing it, YOU, your music, isn't just YOUR gift, it is a gift to us all, and we love you for it. I love you for it.

Angela Scheiber

Oh I love this song so much from your mouth. Really this is a great piece, thanks for completing it!

Jenn Maples

This is one that I would love to see a walkthrough on!

Sharon Bapp

Love it! I also love the piano! Has to be Geoff’s favorite. It’s the only one Iknowthat you untune instead of tune!🙄😍 A real heirloom
