Who is here because of Tracy Chapman and Luke Combs's preformance from the Grammys 2024?? I love this version by Khalid! His voice is so raw almost like begging. Really love it!
Tracy paints a picture and puts you there with her in her raw emotion., which is why her version is eternal and best. We felt it and can never forget it. This one is soooo good too and anyone that covers this haunting song we know, 'gets it' so we love you too. 💜👌
We all are on a fast ride, a ride which can end at any moment. Souls ain´t alright nor right with GOD, to go back home. Choosing not to repent and BORN AGAIN, souls still daily live in sins. (Luke: 13:3 KJV) Perishing because of the knowledge, which they didn´t care about knowing. (HOSEA 4:6 KJV)
My favourite song ever created because my dad died when I was 10... he used to rebuild classic cars, had one of those famous green TVR'S with sporty vents on the wings... always used to take me out in it driving fast, looking to the side of him while giggling at my excitement of the thrill... me getting worried about the speed and him replying with its ok son ill look after you and smiling :) this song makes me cry with sadness and happiness at the same time because it reminds me of the memories we shared together filled with pure love, laughter and adventures... if only we could share that car journey again and again... :'( R.I.P Dad X
This comment hit me in the feels. My dad was never there for me. I'm 33 now, he still prefers the bottle over his children :(. Wish I had a little of what you had.
@@ashaavocado5898 thank you so much, I'm starting a channel on here to do with mental health and life experiences and over coming them for a positively ending :-) just want to help others take care
@@neile9003 aw no... can you contact him? or is it not like that? I'm sorry to hear that and now I feel forever grateful for what I had :-( take care and if you ever need to talk, always here man
The stark difference between the intensity of the verses and the chorus of this song is one of the things that makes it so great. You're just chilling listening to a chill melody and it instantly gets intense and emotional in the verses. Good stuff
As a hardcore TracyC fan, I have to say, I was quite pleased by this young man. Few things can touch the original, if at all. For as young as Khalid is, he did quite well. He has talent!
Seen and heard so many people cover this particular legendary song and not many stands out as much as this one. This was absolutely amazing. Everything Khalid touches turns to gold. Always look forward to his music or performance. Great voice, great talent. P.S. If anyone remember the audition of Michael Collings in BGT that performance was beautiful too.
Thank you for your rendition of this song, I hold this very close to my heart and you bought tears to my eyes for all the right reasons. Much respect from Australia!!!!
I LOVE how intelligent the guitar playing is here. He played the last two chords an octave lower when Khalid was singing and it worked so perfectly props to the guy damnnn
What in the hell are you talking about man? Have you ever even heard the original by Tracy Chapman? This is one of the best and most accurate covers I have ever heard, and his voice truly is perfect for this song. Claiming that his singing is "shitty" does nothing but tell all of us that you have no clue what great singing really is, which isn't shocking at all since you are using American Idol as some sort of gauge for what good singing is lol, which is comical/pitiful to put it kindly. In what world is this damn near perfect cover "borderline horrific" as you say?!? I would bet a lot of money that even Tracy Chapman herself would say that this was an excellent cover. Please explain what was "borderline horrific" about this song, in your "opinion". Also, American Idol has ZERO to do with genuine talent or actual amazing singing, so please don't try to use American Idol in your justification of your "opinion" or as some sort of frame of reference for what good music or talent really is. Thank you and I await your explanation on why this song was "borderline horrific" to you, when damn near everyone else heard this song for what it really was, an amazing cover of an amazing song, by someone with a killer voice that was perfect to do this cover. Thank you and have a great day. :) P.S. Go explore TH-cam and look for some musicians with talent or great voices, since you clearly do not understand what either of those things are. Also, how old are you? I will take the under at 24 years old, am I correct?
Wow this song just came into the playlist unexpectedly. Beautiful song, reminds me of so much of childhood pain. "Is it fast enough so we can fly away"
Never really appreciated this song as a kid....but wow....one of my all time favorites. This cover is particularly excellent as it connects very well with Tracy's version but decidedly it's own take. Well done Khalid!
This is the best cover I’ve heard of this song. Most of the covers lacked… believability if I can call it that. This one somehow sounds sincere and so good… thank you for giving justice to this song. It very much deserves it
I've actually played this song about 4 times .... big ups to the Jeff, the guitar guy . You are amazing Khalid you are the best man.... I love this version
I’ve always thought this song was born timeless, but Khalid made me fall head over heels in I’ve with the song. Thank you to Khalid for the absolutely impeccably haunting delivery of this song ❤️
Practice with a metronome and add a lot of vibrato to the chords. It might help to use a lighter gauge of string so you can vibrato easier. That should help👍
Fast Car is one of the best songs ever written, and he does it justice.
you're right, it's definitely timeless. I'm 39 and remember hearing it in the early 90s as a kid and loving it. Still love it to this day
Yes! He did. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Still has nothing on Chapman.
Love this version
I completely agree
This song makes me daydream of a roadtrip somewhere in the middle of nowhere while I'm trying to figure out my life...
Maria Vasilakou be quiet and drive(far away) does that for me also
Run without a single problem
I’ll drive
shall we?
Absolutely!
His voice is ideal for covering this song. He sounds like he could be her brother.
Yes, her. I take it you've never heard the original by Tracy Chapman?
th-cam.com/video/IJ8i49EqgYI/w-d-xo.html
Tracy Chapman is a woman. I guess he didn’t know that lol
@@_angelxsama Lol yeah. Hopefully he knows now
Limabeef lmaooo oh god🤦🏻♂️
@@_angelxsama lol i didnt know until i saw her performance too
I love how everyone still loves the original more. Nothing will ever beat Tracy.
Still, Khalid did a great job! Love it
Yea, hers had so much emotion into it
I like Khalid's best
@@seannboland1331 saamee
I like this cover better.

More than the vocalist the guitarist deserves recognition... i mean he was so fluid with his playing
He was good, but there are hundreds of thousands of people who can play this song on guitar. Stop cheapening the vocals with comments like these.
@@so10enn I can say the same for the singer and i dont see any bad side of complimenting the guitar player... you triggered much?
@@KTM_Trooper SO triggered
@@so10enn i can see that
@@KTM_Trooper Yeah, you really got me with that sick comeback, bro! I'm just too triggered
Can we please ask God for many more years for the guitarist?
@Australiantatious it's the details man
Amen
@Alexander Supertramp you must be fun at party's
I can play this song too. Can u tell God to give me a few more years too. Thanks bro
No No Lol I know right, kinda a hard rip
On my way to California, driving through the Rockies, as I post this. Moving for a better life. It’s a toss up. But I’m hopeful.
I really hope it turns out to be a better life for you & the toss up pays off.
The best of success and God's guidance!
You shouldn't be commenting and driving
Good luck & God bless
Hope everything is looking up for you. Congrats on the change!👍
Don’t get me wrong, both Tracy and Khalid killed it, but this guitarist is SOLID as well. The consistency on those little flourishes is nuts.
Yeah the guitarist was definitely an underrated part of this video
Absolutely amazing how close to the original it is
was just saying this to myself, this is not an easy song by any means
@@Toucansam46 Absolutely. Easy to play the basics of it, hard to play like this.
Watched the guitarist 10 years ago on TH-cam as Jus Jeff. He has unbelievable talent.
His voice suits this song so good

He sounds like he has a nice voice but most of what he says is incoherent so it ruins the song.
not really but its good
Y’all should hear Justin Bieber’s version, talking about a voice made for this song
nothing beats the original, but damn this was close
I love your playlists. And I just bought her cd the other day
No it wasn't close.
I agree
the bootleg boy yeah I have replayed it a lot of time
the bootleg boy this was awful
Who is here because of Tracy Chapman and Luke Combs's preformance from the Grammys 2024?? I love this version by Khalid! His voice is so raw almost like begging. Really love it!
You a grinch grooved
Absolutely should’ve been them two not Luke, he kind of sucks tbh
the guitarist went OFF, love it

Prader Will, the way you say it seems like your opinion means two shiny shits to him.
Seems like it means a thousand shiny shits to you though!
Stop talking like a dagg ,"this young man" get with it.
Did you skip your meds today, sweetie?
Prader Willi way better than justin biebers cover!
Anyone else low key obsessed with this song? I cannot stop listening!
Probaly could listen to this on repeat daily
Aye
Me!
Obsessed 6/18/20
Low key. I like the choice of words
Guitarist: STRAIGHT FIRE! BRO, YOU KILLED IT! Loved that quick string tapping at 3:48
It’s jussjef
Wicked it is
One of the greatest songs ever written, a true classic, with Khalid’s incredible voice. Absolutely love this! 💗
This song is so soothing and peaceful, no matter the version. Beautiful cover.
I usually hate covers, especially of such an amazing song, but he really nailed this. This is great.
He didnt nail it
@@adatdude419 Nah he did.
He did a cover Fast Car by Tracy Chapman, you know?
He didn’t even come close...His voice isn’t all that thank god for audio tuning.
Don Boscorelli he didn’t nail it! Autotune voice. Craig David nails his covers
His voice is so soothing
Mr. sksksks yes so true he’s amazing and a Inspiration that EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE WHEN YOU BELIEVE

Wow...the Guitarist's nuance is something to be Deeply Appreciated
This song holds a memory of a special time in history....keeps me there
Still coming back 2 years later, this is the only place I can find Khalid's cover. Absolutely love it, so soothing.
Khalid you are great. So much soul. Keep crushin it.
Fast car is one of those songs that when it starts playing everyone just shuts the f*ck up
facts
They didn't in Bieber's concert . I'm so mad I wasn't able to hear him clearly
@@justbeliebering2512 lmao
Fr
Absolutely. Everyone goes into deep thought or a reverie when they hear it. And it's completely unique to each person.
I would like to see him and Tracey duet this song.
That would be a beautiful unification of generations
Yes!
Too bad cause she is a recluse.
Me toooo
please not
This song is pure magic, it talks about sad things, but when I listen to it, it is like the better pill against sadness. Great cover
This song was a hit when I was a young, dumb and broke high school kid.
See whatcha did there
Best comment ever
cute
Marc Witorsch its still a hit Marc
as a young dumb broke high school kid, i can confirm that this song still hits different
Seen and heard so many people cover this particular legendary song and not many stands out as much as this one. This was absolutely amazing. Everything Khalid touches turns to gold. Always look forward to his music or performance. Great voice, great talent.
P.S.
If anyone remember the audition of Michael Collings in BGT that performance was beautiful too.
Biebers was best imo then this second
JFIMES , Bieber’s was good too. But this tops that by far.
Tausif Punk oh yes so true...I need to make this as my Channel intro music
Check out Kina Grannis's cover. You won't be disappointed. Trust.
Tausif Punk p
Perfect union of singer, guitarist and song. Whew thank you!
this is perfection, he sounds like the male version of tracy. incredible! the great khalid!
Tracy sounds like the male version of Tracy

Lol no, her voice is just really deep, she is a girl 😂

Brought tears to my eyes and goosebumps. Great redo. Great song.
I love Khalid with my whole heart and this is one of my all time favourite songs, what a king
Everything Khalid touches turns into gold!
A real artist. Keeps it simple and delivers the words and emotions. Top Shelf!
Feels heavenly listening to this.

I made an account just to make a comment about @jussjef he is amazing i use to listen to him play ten years ago if not more what a talent
Its called music sensitivity, its a gift
The perfect voice for this
MANA The perfect voice for this was Tracy Chapman.
I agree, but this guys voice fits pretty damn sweet. Just sayin :)
This is borderline horrific. He'd get slaughtered on American Idol if he went on singing this shitty.
American Idol encourages over singing. People who like that stuff probably can't appreciate a subtle approach to vocals.

his voice goes really well with this song
Funny thing is that his voice doesn't go well with his own songs when he performs live.

Tracy Chapman made one of the most hauntingly beautiful and heartbreaking songs ever written. This is a lovely cover.
YES!!! So happy he covered this since I thought he sounded like Tracy from the very first time I heard him...
This is SO worthy of a Tracy Chapman cover! ---So freaking amazing, LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!
Wow this song just came into the playlist unexpectedly. Beautiful song, reminds me of so much of childhood pain. "Is it fast enough so we can fly away"

U need a higher taste in voices

Tracy chapman smiling right now. Great cover. Kudos
Man, after hearing so many covers when you simply can't "believe" the lyrics... this one rocks. What an amazing song and what an amazing cover.
Khalid has such a unique warm voice. Amazing.
This is actually everything😍😭 Khalids voice is incredible. Definitely one of the best in the music industry at the minute!
Never really appreciated this song as a kid....but wow....one of my all time favorites. This cover is particularly excellent as it connects very well with Tracy's version but decidedly it's own take. Well done Khalid!
Same. It’s like we had to have age and experience to appreciate. I feel that way about this song & Aretha Franklin’s Everchanging Times.
Even playing this song for multiple times, I still can't get over. Such a great cover. 💪💕
This is the best cover I’ve heard of this song. Most of the covers lacked… believability if I can call it that. This one somehow sounds sincere and so good… thank you for giving justice to this song. It very much deserves it
100% I was thinking the same. The others lacked sincerity!
how come it is the best when the song arrangement identical from the original song?🙄🙄 check jong madaliday haha
Biebers cover is alright
Bieber blows and Luke combs did good but this is the best cover
Justin Bieber
This dude is crazy good!...i can't stop searching his music!👌
Amazing song amazing singer - this is so beautiful, Khalid! ❤
It's a great song. Doesn't matter who sings it. Thanks Tracy
