Thanks for watching our cover of “Simple Man“ by Lynyrd Skynyrd! Remember you can find this song & all of our other covers on Spotify & all streaming platforms! We release songs every Tuesday & Thursday at 12:00pm EST! Go to our website firsttoeleven.com/shop for merchandise & more!
Great cover. Have you considered having a go at "yesterdays" by GnR, "Proud Mary" by Tina Turner, "Nobody Loves you" by Reuben, "Stars" by Simply Red, or "If you don't know me by now" by Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes · 1972?. I reckon you'd crush either/all of them
@@Paul_Carver the new ZO6 with the Z07 package is making a hell of a statement for American Supercars though. Definitely not the same quality quite but if all you want is an impressive slip...she'll make it work.
@@WhateverItMayBe I was mighty impressed with the write up on the c8 stingray ZO6 however the 220 mph adrenaline rush from the McLaren is to addictive to give up.
My late mother used to play this all the time when i was younger, and she'd say pay attention. I lost her in 2014 and this song hits harder now. I lost my grandad , my mom, and my grandmom in a three month span. If ya'll by chance see this comment, could you do a cover of sitting on the dock of the bay by otis redding? That was another of our songs.
I am impressed. As an old codger, I have almost universally rejected covers because they never, ever live up to the original… until now! You nailed it, crushed it, devastated it. You produced not only the sound of the original LS recording but you brought the soul of the song. Congratulations. I’m a fan now and will be keeping an eye on you. We’ll done. And as we say down south… ddaayyyammmmmm!!!!
What an exceptionally talented ensemble you are. Musically, the guitars and drums are absolutely on point, and the vocals convey an understanding of the piece. As a 50 something, listening to such talented artists gives me hope that there is a future for good music.
Mama told me when I was young "Come sit beside me, my only son And listen closely to what I say And if you do this it'll help you Some sunny day" Oh, yeah Oh, take your time, don't live too fast Troubles will come and they will pass You'll find a woman, yeah, and you'll find love And don't forget son there is someone up above And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can? Forget your lust for the rich man's gold All that you need is in your soul And you can do this, oh, baby, if you try All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can? Oh, yes, I will Boy, don't you worry, you'll find yourself Follow your heart and nothing else And you can do this, oh, baby, if you try All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can? Baby, be a simple, be a simple man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man
I was very fortunate to have been able to be taken to see Lynyrd Skynyrd Live at the Fox Theater in 1976 in Atlanta. They became my all time favorite band. It was my second concert ever seen and a huge improvement from the Donnie and Marie concert which was my first. Surprisingly I remember the 1976 concert. Its Surprising because I was only 6 years old. I wouldn't see them again until 2000 at the Fox. Three nights before I left for basic training and 22 years after the Oct 20 1977 plane crash. Excellent cover!
I should ask my health insurance to pay for my Fist To Eleven patreon subscription as their great covers, like this one here, are keeping me sane in this crazy world 😀
As a purebred Southern man from the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina, y'all nailed this song !! F211 is the best cover band out there !! Keep up the awesome work, and thanks for doing this song !!🤘❤❤🤘
now just by the way, subtle not subtle man crush on the guitarist who smashed the solo. Im a noob guitarist at best even all these years later. this is the first song I could kind of nail all the way through. Like I already mentioned, love how this was more of what you'd call a carbon cover. It keeps all of the pure emotion. Kudos to you and your band, cant wait to see what you bring in the future
I'll be honest here. When I first started watching halocene, Lauren babic, and the others like this band that work together, I was immediately drawn to Lauren and violet with their dark hair and deeper voices. Slowly, I found myself watching more and more of first to eleven, and I realized this entire band is awesome. Not just the girlnextdoor rocker chick lead singer who is now my super celebrity crush, but the drummer, bassist and guitar players. Your music is awesome and this cover sealed it for me. New favorite band. If I had to request a song, it would be a tie between lonely day by system of a down, or No Leaf Clover by metallica. Preferably the latter.
I was in high school in Florida when the band's plane crashed. I can still remember the report by CBS TV news anchor Walter Cronkite and the way he mis-pronounced their name. I never did get to see them in concert. This excellent cover brings back memories of my 'Southern Rock' listening teen years!
I'm only in my 20's but all I listen to is mostly 70's and 80's rock (Just what I was raised on, never really liked other genres much), and am a fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd and other bands of the time, and have heard many covers of this song, and I gotta say that my favorite I had heard was by Shinedown... until I heard this. F211 is my favorite cover band I have ever heard, I have yet to listen to one of their covers and not love it. Way to go Audra and the band! Keep it up!
ive been following you on tik tok for awhile. just saw you pop up finally recommended on youtube. this is my favourite song of all time. i was apprehensive but hopeful you would kill it. this is fucking epic. Your band mates also killed it. I get that covers should have a flair of the covering artist, but some songs should be left alone. This brought a tear to my eye, well done
Amazed by how much your talent shows through more with every song I listen to, just when I think I’ve found your best song you release another that is better than before!
First show I ever saw, skynyrd, montrose & the outlaws. You are quickly becoming my favorite cover band. Looking forward to your own creations. Congratulations on getting the sound right!
1st 😎 Yeah!!! Congrats for 7 years of this amazing channel!!! I'm a simple man and I only need a few things to be happy, what includes your great covers!!! Lynyrd Skynyrd was a welcome surprise today!!! Love y'all!!! Keep rocking!!! ❤️
Great song choice so good to hear new talent playing Skynyrd's music in this generation 50+ years later and it proves great music and great songs never die they are simply reborn again and again with new life breathed into them..I applaud this fine talent on their good music taste and a cover well done!!👍✌❤🎵
This is such a beautiful song. Audra just killed it so well with her brilliant vocals and you guys compose such music to do it full justice ! Kudos 🙏. Keep going and don't ever stop 👍👍

soooo good, please look into the band Garbage.... Push it would be epic

The more i listen to this song wow it’s truly exceptional.
its breathtaking
I agree
Who’s here because this fantastic band is exceptionally talented.
I'm here because of that McLaren in your pfp
@@WhateverItMayBe probably the best value super car car on the planet at the moment

@@Paul_Carver that's definitely fair. I've topped out my TA and it did a little over 160 but I'd love to get something over 200
Ya'll done good on this one !!!! Thank you !!!

Happy 7th birthday to this great TH-cam channel
As a Southerner, this is a great cover to hear!
Exceptional band
Lynyrd Skynyrd interested
Got a tear outta me for sure. Amazing group of people came together to form this band.
for sure, obviously her vocals are just sublime, but the whole band is just tight as fuck
honelstly one o fthe better covers ivr heard, big ups
She has a Midas touch..... Gold*👏🥰
Mama told me when I was young
"Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you
Some sunny day"
Oh, yeah
Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman, yeah, and you'll find love
And don't forget son there is someone up above
And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?
Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this, oh, baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied
And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?
Oh, yes, I will
Boy, don't you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your heart and nothing else
And you can do this, oh, baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied
And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?
Baby, be a simple, be a simple man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
I Love You
Can never go wrong with Skynyrd. This is a phenomenal cover.
The guys on the strings are exceptionally talented. Right up there with the best. Vocals are great too.
Your passion shows in your voice, its beautiful, and unique.
It's absolutely adorable and it suits Audra's voice as well.
Listening to this before brekfast
Having respect and not sumb enough to call it adorable to admit your intent over respect would be a good start.
@@ArcticAlphaWolfgaming What on earth did you try to suggest.... everybody doesn't have the same amount of music knowledge you have as you think
@chiragchatterjee4011 musician myself but the way you said it implying the only reason you care is her looks
@@ArcticAlphaWolfgamingAnd how can you prove that??
This is my all time favorite song!! Great job!!!❤
Love this group so much...goooood ...noooo great stuff .... Audra is a gift and then boys rock

Another superb rendition of a classic rock song.
My favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song. You guys nailed this song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The vocals are so awesome, and the band is from another world. Amazing😍😍
I'm from Brazil and I got married with this song. Amazing music and voice.
Muy prolijos felicitaciones desde el fin del mundo mi hermosa e intensa ARGENTINA

I’m gonna throw in another vote for Lonely Day… would absolutely love to hear their take on System Of A Down.
@@JaredPenney77 To me lonely day Is such an under-rated song.
beautifull! congrats guys!
Wow!! Just wow. Y’all killing it as always. Amazing job on this one. Love it.
Amazing performance 🤩
That guitar player is Awesome!!!! The whole band is Awesome!!
Perfect!!! This is the best among the best!!!
An absolute banger, this is the best cover of this song that I have ever heard in my entire life. 11/10 would recommend
Shinedown is the best in my opinião
@@micaelsilva1332 couldn’t agree more, Shinedown takes it to another level!
Shinedown is legit the best cover of Simple Man and legit no other cover is close.
Interpretação muito boa!
Uma das melhores que ouvi.
Parabéns a banda!
Where have I been, you guys are great and my favorite Skynyrd song, nicely done. You have a new follower. ❤
This son still makes me cry. Makes me cry every time and makes me think of my mom... toughest fucking woman I ever knew. RIP.
Guitar work here is amazing lead and bass
J'aime !!❤ beautifull ! Love this song !!!

Great job on this one ! 🤓
It looks like it's going to be a cold and rainy day in Japan. Have a good day ☔＆You're Cool Band🎸 I've been loving Lynyrd Skynyrd 🎸
Excellent cover, really... From France.

Brilliant Thanks...."Call me the Breeze" next please Support from Australia
Aunim tells me you're celebrating seven years as a band, so it was generous of you to give your fans this present!
I think 7 years since name change to First To Eleven. Ryan formed original band maybe 13-14 years ago?
Это просто космос! Хоть вы и пишите по английски, а я по русски-вам нас не победить!
Great rendition
Oh my god I’m so fucking happy you guys did this song.
Seeing the band playing makes me believe that rock roll still lives in young people. 🤘
Sehr gut und einfach genial!
simply amazing

I have been asking for this cover for probably at least a year. great job. Loved it
Simply amazing guys! You always rock. Hat's off ever!
I am a simple man, i see Audra, i click 2:08
Ronnie would approve. Keeping the story and the song authentic. It's great to hear this music still living on. Skynyrd is still the best ever.
First show I ever saw, skynyrd, montrose & the outlaws. You are quickly becoming my favorite cover band. Looking forward to your own creations. Congratulations on getting the sound right!
Orsume how the drummer made hitting the symbols sound like drums , more like Millie Vanilie to me.
1st 😎 Yeah!!! Congrats for 7 years of this amazing channel!!! I'm a simple man and I only need a few things to be happy, what includes your great covers!!! Lynyrd Skynyrd was a welcome surprise today!!! Love y'all!!! Keep rocking!!! ❤️

Your voice has become so warm sounding.
Awesome cover of one of my favourite songs of all time!

magnifique chanson d'un grouppe mytique et en plus super bien chanter bravoooooo
Some of Audra's movements hinted at channeling Joe Cocker. Great to see. Those guitar riffs sent chills down my spine.
AWESOME as usual. It's easy to comment on your videos because they are all awesome, it's simple man. (that will fly over so many heads)
keeping the dream alive...well done f211!
Now you HAVE to do Freebird
De los mejores covers que han hecho, que sigan los éxitos
Great job thanks
9 out of 10 for a cover and voice. The drums, well after listening to 4 songs now, Shoot me.
Wow , what a band , great singer and music , at 75 still like and love rock .
Well done
Heavy. Thanks!
at first i was like "yeah this is average" and at the end i realised how good this cover actually is
Such an extra ordinary band, keep up the good works guys, be an example to others, god bless, mabuhay! from philippines
I've just watched Paramore's new single, waiting your amazing cover.
this band rocks 🎤🎼🎸🥁🪕
BRAVO BRAVO First to Eleven
This is such a beautiful song. Audra just killed it so well with her brilliant vocals and you guys compose such music to do it full justice ! Kudos 🙏. Keep going and don't ever stop 👍👍
I agree with Markus. You guys nailed this one.
This tune is from back in my days and also Ryan's 😝😉
