Looking back on this year, I can not help, but be grateful to HSCC, for their dedication, commitment, and enthusiasm, they have brought to us each week, through their music. Not everyone has the dedication and the talent to achieve this, but this Great Australian Cover Band does. Here's to another year of listening pleasure and memories. Thank you HSSC...We the music people of the world, are truly grateful for all the happiness and joy you bring to us all. CHEERS !!🥂😃❤🌏👋🎤🔥🎵🥰🎸👍✨🪘 🎹 🙏
I totally agree,👍 looking forward to 2025 🎉
H S C C are a blessing I discovered by accident thru’ Richard Wilkins.I still can’t believe some of their renditions.Often as good as or better than original, they warm the cockles of a 75 y o heart.
Walk on H S C C
Love the group ❤such great music and such talented musicians.Best wishes in the USA and for 2025x
Forget about it
Spot on Tony!
You just left a Sound Technician grinning from ear to ear. Perfect.
No need to "ask", Bel Martinez is a smooth operator as she glistens in front of the camera and behind the mic with this rendition of Sade's classic hit. Coast to coast and around the world The HSCC does it again!
❤🎉crisp and delightful
Totally 😊agree!
Bel's velvet voice was perfect for this classic song! Well done HSCC!
Perfectly executed. Thanks again HSCC.
I can't believe it's played so cleanly, it's amazing.
Bel Martinez and the band HSCC did not forget to give us the gift of her beautiful voice, which made our Christmas even brighter! Ever since I heard her for the first time (The Best of Bel Martinez vol. 1), I have been looking forward to hearing her again. Returned to sing a hit by Sade Adu with her own unique elegance. I would like to thank you all and reiterate: The Best of Bel Martinez vol. 2
Totally agree!
Bel's voice is smooth as silk. Great job Jason and HSCC

❤ Bel Martinez and the great musicians from HSCC. Fantastic! Congratulations!!❤
Hello HSCC, Thanks for a great Thursday night performance with the heart and soul of Bel. Outstanding ❤Your 🎶
Thank you thank you.!!!!!.... your music makes our world a little better and easier to endure all the bs/wtf and other mindless situations!!! I started listening during the covid shut down ( in Toronto ) and today from my new home in Budapest.... As the beatles song goes..." The love you make is equal to the love you take!!!" I bow to my head to you!!!!
This brings me back to hot summer nights back in New York City in the late 80's... wine, women, & song... 😊
Cool, cool jazz,: great vibes going
Loved it! Vocals so smooth and the bass, sax and Jordan shaking it where all class. Thanks for 2024 and looking forward to 2025.
Really love HSCC so happy I discovered them . They never disappoint on their covers .
WOW!!! That was Smooth as Silk! Absolutely Beautiful, Brilliant and a World Class Performance, Thank you all, for your Spectacular Talent,
You are all Outstanding and so much Appreciated! Thank you!💖 Cheers Scotty ✌
One of my favorites and it's a challenge to take on a song by Sade. She nailed it. And they nailed it. Perfect!
Fan de Sade desde 1983 y está interpretación me llevó a esos años dorados de la música, gracias amigos, abrazo Bel Martínez, happy holidays.
What a knock-out number to finish 2024! Everyone was fantastic but do want to give a special mention to Steve on percussion and Jason playing saxophone - absolutely fabulous!
Good luck to HSCC for your upcoming tour of the U.S. (Make sure you all come home!)❤❤❤❤
Just when you think this song is impossible, HSCC nailed it again. As always an outstanding performance ❤❤❤
One of my favorite song .. and what an awesome band …
What an absolutely PERFECT audible feast for the ears.
You've done it again, HSCC.❤
Wow, just wow. To end the year with a performance like this is awesome. The HSCC continues to deliver weekly, and this week was another gem. Bel Martinez was excellent on vocals, just superb. And then she is backed in harmonies by Jordan and Brad, that was just so well done by those two. I don't know if Constantine gets enough credit, but he is amazing on bass, so for him to have a solo this week is well deserved. And that sax player Jason, he knew exactly when to play and at what strength. This is just a complete band, and they can do absolutely any song they want. I have my Phoenix tickets ready to go, and that date can't come soon enough. Once again, a great performance by the great, great HSCC!
Holy moly! Bel ,fantastic vocals, love this tune,you guys nailed it. Jason ,killer sax!!!!
Once again, HSCC delights us with that rare virtue that identifies them: the conjunction between respect for the original versions and their own arrangements that give new life to the classics. They are great!
Her voice smooth as silk and band super tight, I was transported.👏
Great job guys! One of my favorite songs to play on bass!! You nailed it Con 👍
Texas approves
You have nailed it again folks. Amazing 👏🏼
what a combination fantastic singer and marvellous musicians thanks
Watching your videos is like having every band/artist I have ever wanted to see live or loved listening to come to life right before my eyes. Thanks, HSCC for bringing it to us and giving 110% weekly. I love you guys and cannot wait to see you in Long Beach, California!🌟
Very nice, ladies and gents!
Mr. Con, the band was rockin’ as always and Ms. Bel has a beautiful alto voice full of passion and soul. Thank for another great 👍🏾 journey down a beautiful musical memory lane. Be blessed 😇 from Virginia, USA 🇺🇸.
It's been a long time since we've heard Bel and after this stellar performance of a Sade hit, don't be away so long. Oh,and the band was magnificent, but we already knew that.
The commitment of HSCC to the original music's integrity is unmatched. Thank you for that. Love you guys.
Fabulous as always! I've never heard this lady before, but she sounds amazing!
Not so much a cover version, but a reinterpretation of the original (I was in my 20s in the '80s :-). Absolutely superb, much kudos.
Perfect!!! Like always
Once again HSCC has knocked it out of the park. Awesome job guys and gal.
Voice of an angel.
This perfectly played timeless masterpiece by "Sade" is an example of how a cover band like this, shows their amazing talent, that spreads throughout just about anywhere. I'm just at a loss for words on how these people show why they are the absolute best cover band in the world. They should tour the USA and there's a guarantee that they will sell-out anywhere they perform. Fantastic!!!!
Stuart Matthewman was my inspiration to pick up a saxophone and I've played this part a hundred times at least over the years. And then here comes Jason's buttery interpretations to totally crush me. LOL. You guys and gals just kill it. Bravo.
I too am running out of ways to express my absolute love and admiration for HSCC. You guys are so special and bring joy to me daily. Thank you and God bless you.
The tenor saxophone intonation and its smooth accentuation fits this tune perfectly.
A great way to start a Friday - thanks guys . The extended version by Sade is great to see too.
World-Class cover performance! Great song choice!
*Impossível não se emocionar com esse grupo, fecho os olhos e simplesmente, tudo perfeito!!!*
*Do interior de Pernambuco, Moreno - Brasil*
What a master piece ! Absolutly stunning voice, great music. Bravo bravo bravo! ❤🧡💛
'Smooth Operator' performed by a 'Smooth Operating Band'!
Fabulous performance!! Love the voice and saxophone!!
Beautiful naturel voice, the music is perfect ...amazing coverband, Sade is a icoon in Belgium...we love that in Belgium (Europe) a small country but we have the best music festivals in the world (Tomorrow land, Werchter ...)welcome HSCC and many thx for this number, succes
s
Great! Bel fits in well at HSCC! Well done!
Sade, one of my favorites... Great job Bel and band...super smooth.
What a wonderful cover guys!!
Loved it! One of my favorite song by Sade.
Bel is a goddes. So beautiful. So charming. So talented. Love her.
Excellent performance! Killer job on the backup vocals, absolute dialed in.
Outstanding job as always! Bel's voice and that sax - WOW!
What a buttery performance! Beautiful subtle mix, as always, and Brad's backing vocals are so perfect. I loved it!
I love so much about this cover. The softness and unique way you work together. Also, the sax introduced and how HE played that part - getting into it, as the arrangement suggests, yet knowing when to back away from it when he knew it was needed to do so. Bel's voice was smooth.
Wowwwww!!!! Voice like silk! Amazing cover guys!!
WOW, perfect cover. Bel looks beautiful and sounds fantastic.
You are definitely the masters of covers. Every performance is simply beautiful and perfect. It is always a pleasure to follow and listen to you for more than 5 years. Greetings from Leon, Guanajuato Mexico. I hope that one day you will be invited to our international Cervantino festival in our beautiful capital.
Exceptionally performed. Captures the sound and overall ambience perfectly.💯
She nailed it
Honestly how do you keep this level of quality up. So glad I found you guys and girls earlier this year. All the best for your up coming US tour. You guys are the 'Thunder from Down Under'....lol
No need to ask we all know that the HSCC are smooth operators ❤❤❤
Sounds great. Really Relaxing and Smooth.
Sade is smiling somewhere thinking this is one great hit made. The smooth operator is the entire HSCC orchestra and smooth sax, belle singing by Bel!
Incredible!!!! Excited to see you guys in Long Beach, California in a couple of weeks. Please add this to your set list!!!!
すごいです、オリジナル以上です。しびれます
A wonderful rendition! Awesome and beautiful!!!
Beaucoup de travail pour en arriver à une telle qualité de son et d'interprétation (la chanteuse est top !). Encore une foi bravo HSCC !.
Thank you for bringing Bel back. First class musicianship as always HSCC!
Wowzers! Killer rendition!!!
Oh boy! You got me on that one. I got a rush right up my side and backbone! That's what I call hitting the groove big time!
