Here I am again, spending the evening listening to this group make all the classics hits their songs. How a cover band playing in a Georgia parking lot can out do Adele is a gorgeous gift.
Great to see Sammie singing lead - and she nailed it. Tim's arrangement is spot on, and the band is flawless as always, but Sammie's powerful vocal makes this unbelievably good. You folks are absolutely amazing!
This time I noticed that a really important part of this performance is the mixing. Sammie's voice is kept front and center with the backup voices clear but not overwhelming. Love it.
This band is just plainly unbelievable, every single one of them. The quality they're able to get out of even the most trivial venue as well as the masterful rendering of all their covers is utterly astonishing and leaves me speechless over and over again.
I just found them a few days ago when I was in the hospital. I'm very glad that I finally found them. I'm doing what I can to let others know about this wonderful group.
Having watched Adele grow in my UK homeland and seeing her impact on so many people, I am in awe of this cover. The songs that Foxes and Fossils cover are played with so much respect for the original artist BUT with an element of ownership, to the extent you could believe they were the original. Somethings in this life are meant to come together and deliver , it is so refreshing to see F&F now and in the past playing with a Love for Music and for that we must be humbly grateful.
This and Nobody Love are Sammy's best songs, in my opinion. She really belts both out, but in a controlled way. She's a fine harmony singer as well, but occasionally her leads are quite memorable.
Shocking and stunning this was 10 years ago. Sammie has a huge voice - it just resonates! The band is superb as always. Kudos to the guys behind the scenes too - just a 100% legit production.
A couple days ago I compared their 'Helplessly Hoping' version vs the original CSN. The CSN sounded totally muddly, flat and dull. Someone somewhere is doing a great job!
Bravo, Sammie. The whole scene could absolutely not be better. Could watch you perform, sing lead, sing harmony, talk, be interviewed, dance until doomsday. Delightful.
Oh my goodness this lovely young blond lady and all the singers are rising ☆☆☆s oh yeah wow I loved the whole performance beautiful. Thanks for sharing God bless you all extra abundantly.
Sammie you are so unbelievable talented you are the best thing going ..You should be a nationwide worldwide superstar. You just keep getting better with age.I am blessed to have discovered Foxes & Fossils and you. Thank You !!! You are Spectacular!!!
And inside of 10 years, she's singing the national anthem at a Major League Baseball game. It happened April 10 2021, Atlanta's Truist Stadium. She, Tim, Maggie and Darwin (the guy on the left in the Suite: Judy Blue Eyes video), kicking off a game between the Braves and the Philadelphia Phillies. A bit of a step up from singing to 20 friends at a taco shop.
Man, Sammie is so strong and sophisticated in this performance. And 11 years ago. Personally, I would never remember the lyrics and completely flub the song. Just amazing. As much as I love and follow this group, I've never seen this before. I'm totally gobsmacked!
I discovered F & F a couple of months, somehow I missed seeing this gem, until today. Sammy is my favorite, and she belted out this one !! This show had a whole different vibe than the first show, only a year earlier. I think the girls now realize how good they both really are, they are looser, having more fun, and a little bit of attitude, which is good.
I love that little clip of Johnny at 1:52. Sure, Sammie takes the spotlight on the vocals, but don't overlook that the Fossils deliver the backing here at a professional level.
@@ronaldfridley7758 I can’t figure out people…If the song wasn’t much to 423 why in the hell would he go through comments….Didn’t mom tell you if you don’t have anything nice to say just shut the F__k up…
I think the thumbs down people need to invest in a quality bluetooth headset. Only logical reason I see for not appreciating this young lady's talent. Just amazing for a 16 year old.
Props to tackling such a tough tune to sing. Everyone really nailed it, including the singer. 120 people voting this down wouldn't know talent if it bit them in the ass. Great cover of a very difficult song. Drums are spot on, as is the bass... these folks know their sh*t.
Such amazing passion coming from a 16 year old Sammie. I love this. Blew the Adele version away with it's power. This is a phenomenal production all the way around, from the camera work, the sound quality, all the vocals, and the tight band driving it along. I don't know how many times I have watched this in a week's time- a lot. Probably my favorite F&F video.
Tim, you all are exceptional. I know the Covid thing is making everything difficult, but very hopeful that you can get all group together. We all love hearing all of you and the amazing talent of the group. God Bless from Texas.
I know it has already been said, but...you deserve a much bigger venue. All of the members are so talented...and every young lady in your group has such great singing capability. You fossils are good also.
Thanks for notiicing my comment I am blown away by the beautiful talent from you guys oh wow I am . Beautiful people with such tremendous talent wow wow wow.Thanks for sharing God bless you all.
Sammie...Wow...absolute talent and stage presence. There is no one in the music industry that has anything on her. Beautiful voice, nice range, perfect pitch. I'm impressed!!
What great memories to make with your daughter.the band is amazing and ALL three girls that have been in this band are the most incredibly talented singers.
If there is a better rendition of this song, i sure haven't heard it. Awesome performance.
Here I am again, spending the evening listening to this group make all the classics hits their songs. How a cover band playing in a Georgia parking lot can out do Adele is a gorgeous gift.
Maggie and Amy (Mustangs) also sang this one, the band could play the song in 3 different keys.
Key west@@lynwessel2471
Tim ,you can make music for another 50 years but you will never top this one ! Super Sammie !
Real musicians and real vocals! No autotune here folks.
Sammie completely kills on this ! Great to hear her with that power in her voice
16 here! She's 28 now.
Sammie is the best. ❤ Pure talent !!!
Sammie just unbelievable God given Pure Talent !!!
And Gorgeous.
@mikejohnson2098 She is beyond Gorgeous !!!
Great to see Sammie singing lead - and she nailed it. Tim's arrangement is spot on, and the band is flawless as always, but Sammie's powerful vocal makes this unbelievably good. You folks are absolutely amazing!
Sammie Purcel is a world class vocalist period.
@@joeboxter3635 Fuck you
Uh yeah, and so is Maggie!
No argument here!!!!!!!

Absolutely. Also, all the vocalists know proper microphone technique.
My God , the depth of talent in that girl .........
still watching brilliant
Love it when Sammie reaches for the high notes! And nails them.
This band is just plainly unbelievable, every single one of them. The quality they're able to get out of even the most trivial venue as well as the masterful rendering of all their covers is utterly astonishing and leaves me speechless over and over again.
Could we please have a moment of silence for all those that never found the Foxes and Fossils channel. Some of the finest artists on TH-cam
I just found them a few days ago when I was in the hospital. I'm very glad that I finally found them. I'm doing what I can to let others know about this wonderful group.
I found them few years ago 😍
@@TONY-gs7gf lucky!
7th July 2021, really hooked.
and from the heart , you can hear it so
it does not matter how many times that i come back to this song it is so much better than the original . Super hot Sammie
One proud father here folks, amazing singers, amazing band.
This isn't just a cover, Sammie and Everyone on them this their own song.

2pie2mash: Superb comment.
That's beautiful statement bro; or sis! They are sooo good!
What they said!!!!!!!!

Their voices just go together, and shouldn't be separated.
*My Lord this is perfection attained, then some!*
When you have the guts to cover Adele in a live venue, you are totally badass!
Yes you are ! And quite talented, too ...
With traffic rolling by in the background. These guys have grown on me. This is 2011; maybe parking lots was where they got their start.
Taylor Walsh, umm, is an outdoor patio at a bar.
YES!
Taylor Walsh It’s at The Taco Barn, in Georgia (I’m not sure which city)
What a lead vocal- so much depth and emotion.
I am truly blown away. This young girl should be a superstar.
The sound man needs to be praised. He knows his stuff and the band SOUNDS AWESOME.
Can't believe it's not studio. Simply the best I've ever heard.
Totally agree!
A couple days ago I compared their 'Helplessly Hoping' version vs the original CSN. The CSN sounded totally muddly, flat and dull. Someone somewhere is doing a great job!
@@rontoolsie I didn't get at first, but now I know who tha Foxes are and who tha Fossils are. Good name for tha band.
Agreed. Sound like that...live...wow. Sound can make or break the band. Fabulous.
Bravo, Sammie. The whole scene could absolutely not be better. Could watch you perform, sing lead, sing harmony, talk, be interviewed, dance until doomsday. Delightful.
The Best cover band in the world!
One of Sammie's best performances. Whew! What a band!
Oh my goodness this lovely young blond lady and all the singers are rising ☆☆☆s oh yeah wow I loved the whole performance beautiful. Thanks for sharing God bless you all extra abundantly.
That first “we could have had it all!!!!” sent a chill down my whole body!
Sammie's best performance of anything I've heard her sing. Wow!
This has always been one of my Sammie favorites. Can’t count how many times I’ve watched this and today came across it again. Love you guys!❤
This is flat out killer !
GOD touched them with beautiful souls🙏💐
Thank you for this video. The young lady certainly does a masterful job on this song, not an easy task.
Sammie Purcell
Perfect transition to falsetto and nails the note. Dang that’s talent, y’all.
The best thing that ever happened to me is discovering the Foxes and Fossils on TH-cam!
Said it b4 and I'll say it again: Intense, skillful, and HEARTFELT!!! I love this crew, special kudos to Sammie. - Rutherford, age 67, Prague CZ
Sammie you are so unbelievable talented you are the best thing going ..You should be a nationwide worldwide superstar. You just keep getting better with age.I am blessed to have discovered Foxes & Fossils and you. Thank You !!! You are Spectacular!!!
Wow! Sammie, you blew me away. I listen to this over and over. And Maggie’s backup couldn’t be better.
Fantastic band She sings superbly!!!!!!

I think the girls now realize how good they both really are, they are looser, having more fun, and a little bit of attitude, which is good.
I keep seeing and hearing new depths (no pun intended) even after 11 years. It is a masterclass in musical togetherness by the F&F gang.
I love that little clip of Johnny at 1:52. Sure, Sammie takes the spotlight on the vocals, but don't overlook that the Fossils deliver the backing here at a professional level.
Wow! Love the harmonies on this one and Sammy is amazing! Truly incredible what you guys can get at an outside venue. Again, Wow!
music excellent and sound recording so well balanced. somebody is a fine technician!
I love actually hearing the lyrics! No mumbly mouth here. Thank you!!
Just ran across this group. You dont normally mess with Adele songs. this girl absolutely killed it in a really good way. Excellent.
and that was done 9 years ago.
What the hell are you even talking about , i see Adele covers ALL THE TIME and many of them are as good or better then this .
@@tfe423 well everyone has their own opinions my friend.
Pish.... Adele covers are quite common .
don't hate me it's just an opinion
@@ronaldfridley7758 I can’t figure out people…If the song wasn’t much to 423 why in the hell would he go through comments….Didn’t mom tell you if you don’t have anything nice to say just shut the F__k up…
Love hearing this girl sing and she is a natural beauty
Best cover band I've ever heard. She and Maggie have fantastic voices, and the music is really well done!
This young lady should be an American Idol winner.
These guys are simply awesome with everything they do! Monster singing girls and professional playing! Everything perfect
This is what I love about youtube,hidden gems pop up every once in a while.This is simply amazing!
Just discovered this band and I think I'm in love 😶 Sound sounds so so good for live performances. Voices sound so silky smooth
@@TheVichernandez check out their suite: judy blue eyes. i cry every time!
YES I AGREE
trying to ut together a live show to view online. $20 etc. website has info
I would watch that. They deserve the bigger crowds or just to be heard all over the world! One of the best cover bands I ever listened to
Foxes and Fossils taking it to the next level.
Wow, just wow. No wonder I can't stop listening to these amazing musicians.
Balanced and mixed perfectly. Major respect for the sound produced by this band !!
Okay guys I really oughtta go to sleep it's 4:30 in the morning now but I can't stop lovin it!!!
I think the thumbs down people need to invest in a quality bluetooth headset. Only logical reason I see for not appreciating this young lady's talent. Just amazing for a 16 year old.
Two fabulous girls with voices to die for. Thank you ladies you are wonderful !
I love this cover. Sammie sang with a lot of heart!
Not surprising this has so many views, the very best cover this band has done hands down.
Just discovered this band by accident and WOW!
Breathtaking. I always liked that song, but didn't care for the singer. But this girl is the real thing.
Props to tackling such a tough tune to sing. Everyone really nailed it, including the singer. 120 people voting this down wouldn't know talent if it bit them in the ass. Great cover of a very difficult song. Drums are spot on, as is the bass... these folks know their sh*t.
Especially since these girls were just kids at the time, I mean come on.
A powerful, anointed song sung by the best female rock singer and the best rock band in history
Such amazing passion coming from a 16 year old Sammie. I love this. Blew the Adele version away with it's power. This is a phenomenal production all the way around, from the camera work, the sound quality, all the vocals, and the tight band driving it along. I don't know how many times I have watched this in a week's time- a lot. Probably my favorite F&F video.
Just found this fantastic group. I am speechless!!!!!
Don't know how folks can sit at their tables talking! :-/ They had my full attention. Such a pleasure to see and hear!
Agreed. Absolutely amazing.
Thanks for the kind words
You've given us so much. Thank you forever.
Dewd! I know something about musicianship, and you are a standout. Just sayin'.
Sammie's amazing. You ALL are!
Come play in Cincinnati sometime....I'll be there !
Tim, you all are exceptional. I know the Covid thing is making everything difficult, but very hopeful that you can get all group together. We all love hearing all of you and the amazing talent of the group. God Bless from Texas.
And they make it look effortless...I'm so deeply impressed
Effortless is the signature of raw talent.
The backing vocals were great too!
Well done, that was brave, such a difficult song to sing. great job
Outstanding. And with none of Adele's voice enhancements. Loved this cover.
LOVE THAT OLD SCHOOL SOUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Killed it!! Fantastic sooooo tight!!
Every time I hear this I love it even more! IMO, it's better than Adele's version!
This definitely the best rock band in the country and they play music from some of the the greatest artists. It is a revival!!
Out all the years I have been around this is the only band I would love to see live. Tim you have done an awesome job.
Agreed, but check out the Mona Lisa Twins
They have two live shows planned, Dec 29 & 30 2022, in Hapeville, near the Atlanta airport. Stay tuned.
Tough song to pull off. Perfectly, passionately executed. So much talent in this band!
I know it has already been said, but...you deserve a much bigger venue. All of the members are so talented...and every young lady in your group has such great singing capability. You fossils are good also.
im addicted to this ive played it about a hundred times
SAMMIE!!!! She hit it out of the park!!
And it was reported as a UFO.
Just awesome
GORGEOUS GORGEOUS GORGEOUS!
it's recorded right from the sound board that's why it sounds like studio ..very well done on the mixing..
Thanks for notiicing my comment I am blown away by the beautiful talent from you guys oh wow I am . Beautiful people with such tremendous talent wow wow wow.Thanks for sharing God bless you all.
Great. This is the best coverband in the world. Listen to the electric guitar delicately roaring in the background. Very good.
I missed this performance. It's a great song and you certainly did it justice. Great vocal. Great band. Appreciate you sharing.
Again and Again they are superb. Love the sounds and look at the venue. WOW 🤩 this group is star quality bar none.
A grouping of superb musicians that deserve to play major venues. Love all of their music.
Every time I watch this video I like it more.
THE harmony is off the wall great job.And Sam there no words for You
Sammie...Wow...absolute talent and stage presence. There is no one in the music industry that has anything on her. Beautiful voice, nice range, perfect pitch. I'm impressed!!
What great memories to make with your daughter.the band is amazing and ALL three girls that have been in this band are the most incredibly talented singers.
Heard the original song on the radio today but I'll take Sammie's version 7 days a week !!!!!
I can’t get over how good you all are. ( or where ....writing this in July 22, 2019) Just incredibly great musicianship In every respect.
How could such a talented group be assembled i one place? Talent on loan from God.
Rush could not have said it better
