I can’t even tell you how often I come back to listen to this!
Me too
Darwin you nailed it. Y’all did! And I’m really digging that Rain Song. Carbon fiber rocks.
I've been a sound engineer for over 40 years. That was one of the best mixes I have ever heard. Each individual trac was clear and distinct. I've heard and watched songs mixed in million dollar + studio's that didn't blend together that smoothly.
The singers know how blend thereby making the engineers job easy.

When you take on a CSN song you better have the harmonies together. They did. Amazing job.
They All have that gift ....you know great ears for music, , and a great balance , great harmonies
Fabulous
Oh that Darwin. Amazing voice. Just wonderful, Darwin!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful voice with us!
F&F rules
Old school perfection that is lost today.
Super, j'aime bien voir et entendre le papa qui chante avec sa fille
Foxes and Fossils always show great respect for prior artist's work.
You all sent me back to my best years in the early 70s while in the Navy. I’m 75 now and still loving all this. Thank you for doing this song and putting life into those great songs. You all did CSN justice. God bless.
Thank you for your service
I never tire of this group perform, sing and play their music, does anyone else feel the same way?
Yes. all of us.
Should we ask for a show of hands?
Eu queria viajar daqui do Brasil só pra ver essa banda tocar aí, que grupo harmonioso.
Definitely
Their music is just so soothing. Makes me feel good. Period.
Excellent. A "winner" indeed. A song about a man losing his wife, losing his sailboat and gaining the beauty and forgiveness of the Lord that we all need to gain. Beautiful song.
The harmonies are ridiculous. Better than anything you can find in popular music today. The mix is flawless.
Tim is a wizard!
"Harmony is the easy part"- Maggie
😊❤
Just came across these people It's nice that people my age play the music I enjoyed when I was young
Thanks Darwin. You're the man to cover this one.
wow, the whole group is just great, those young ladies can sing
Bless you for your tribute to Stephen Stills and CSN, but especially Stephen, the master of our generation of the 60's through the 80's and beyond. Baby boomer born in 57!
Fantastic!!! Subscribed, lied and whatever else I can do to say thank you!!!!🎉
I come back to this remarkable,fantastic copy…Excellent!
I wish I could push the thumbs up more than once…given how many times I’ve come back to watch this beautiful cover.
The talent here is superlative from vocals to instruments and the mix to create the final product is masterful. I love you guys! You bring me joy. Thank you so much!!
This song, "Early Morning Rain," and "Peace Train" are are some of my very favorite F&F performances. I come back to them time and time again. I'm so grateful to Darwin for sharing his beautiful guitar skills and brilliant vocals.
I’m 73….they set my mind on Fire …..terrific!
Ditto @robertsutphen2333, moi aussi 73🙏👏
Outstanding. Not just on this either. Suite Judy Blue Eyes is more than a Gem. Their work is really brilliant!!
Also Helplessly Hoping and Carry On for the CSN fans.
More CSN due soon, stay tuned!
Extraordinary cover...really takes me back. Great job guys and gals!!!
The immense beauty of this song surpasses almost all others: the lyrics soar, and each verse is fresh. The sea/life allegory is truth, and the melody and phrasing just wrings emotion from my soul. What a priviledge to be able to master such a treasure.
As an Australian, I can see the Southern Cross anytime - but its not every day that I get to hear the amazing Foxes and Fossils add another brilliant page to their remarkable catalogue. Thank you so very much!
Or maybe you see the Southern Cross at night?
Kiwi here, same. Great cover. Thanks F& F
Brilliant ! The harmonies are amazing !
As a Dutchman I never get to see the Southern Cross but I can listen to F & F anytime.
Another Aussie who loves listening to these guys.
Holy hell. Or heaven. I’m impressed you picked up this one. Thanks.
Talent is talent and this is one talented group!! Kudos!
It brings tears to my eyes seeing the talent and gifts that your family has been blessed with!! Great job sharing all the sweet sounds that your group turns into "music''! Sweet Music if you must know! Thanks
Tim and Sammie are father/daughter. No one else is related, just "musical family".
"I think that was a winner" Perhaps the F & F understatement of 2022. Absolutely amazing.
Third time listening this week. Better every time. Takes me away.... someplace sweet.
Holy smokes. I don't get goosebumps very often anymore from music, but man....the lead vocal along with the harmony in the second verse. CHEFS KISS!!!
I'm tired of trying to tell the world how great this little band is. Every song, every note in tune. It's criminal!!
Still waiting for one of these to truly 'go viral'.
164k subscribers, 316k views - I think your message might have rung through. I agree, some phenomenally good, amazing stuff.
now I see your point. I've sent this to half the people on earth - I'll get to the rest. It is breathtaking, every time I listen
No auto tune. Irrelevant with this talented bunch.
excellently brought by this group of musicians and singers...outstanding voice cover ... it brings the song alive ...thx...I wish I had a band backing me up like this...
The groups ability to pull out and joyfully sing the essence of each song they cover pays such respect to the music.
Every song F&F covers is a celebration of the original song and artist.
Great job. I love that the younger folks are experiencing the variety that all of you perform flawlessly
Darwin, you have out done yourself on this one. Southern Cross is officially one of the absolute best Foxes and Fossils have performed. I never got this emotion from CSNY, but you all again made it yours. I hope you know how much you all impact your listeners. You are our family!
Your voice was so good. Thank you 😊.
EVERY song the F&F do is much better than the originals
Darwin, are ya married?😂
Agreed!
While it’s a good cover, nothing could ever outdo CS&N.
Not even Jimmy Buffett.
F&F thank you. This is an amazing cover. Just perfection. You are all such beautiful people. The only thing that would make this better is if you could play it together.
They did it for the concerts. The big video will hopefully be available in March.
Goosebumps and tears here.. Just WOW, sooooo GOOD!! Masterful performance by all!!! Thank you!
Heavy dose of goosebumps! Ditto.
So peaceful. I'm so grateful that I'm hearing these precious people share their talents with us. Foxes and Fossils are a treasure that cannot be duplicated.
Darwin rocks this and Peace Train as well! Another stellar performance by all!!!
As many times as I have watched this, I can't believe I never commented on how INCREDIBLE you ALL were in this one!!
Absolutely Sterling performance! Two of my favorite lines of all time, "She is all that I have left and music is her name" and "We never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do". Have to play it twice every time! Teary-eyed and inspired!
Absolutely love this cover! Dar nails the lead vocal and the vocal harmonies are beautiful. The instrumentals just make me smile they are so good. I love this cover! This is one I can't just listen to and move on, I have to hear it at least three or four times before I can move on. Thanks so much for sharing.
Me too, as I finish listening to it for the 3rd time... chores can wait. :)
RIP David Crosby. I'll be listening to CSNY songs and covers today.
Wow ! Very impressive, Great job,I love this song .You guys are so talented,thankyou for sharing this video. Keep Rockin✌️🤙
I'm going to go work today, play golf this afternoon, come home this evening, mix a drink ,put on my headphones and feel the comfort of Foxes and Fossils singing a song that I have listened to a thousand times. This is a good day.
Yep, that is indeed a winner, thank you for the music
Tonight I am watching CSN videos and remembering David Crosby. F&F's performance is truly a tribute to David's music. In fact, I like it better than the original performances. Well done F&F! Rest in Peace David Crosby, you left a fine legacy.
This!
While he sang this one often live, Art Garfunkel sang it for the album, while David was off dealing with drug and legal problems.
And you know it will!
Great cover of one of my favorites. Fossils rock.
I first saw C,S,N in Portland,Or in I think it was 1972. Guess what? Darwin and the other F&F have them beat. You guys impress me greatly. Keep up the joy. Thanks
Wow !!!! Just when I think your songs can't get any better...I'm blown away yet again !!!! Just amazing !!
A great song, it missed my radar back in the day. BUT what a performance! Love the fossil singers ❤ outstanding performance 👏👏🫡
Fantastic. You are the world's best cover band! Love everything you do!
Such a great cover of Southern Cross! Lov the songs y'all like, & as a percussionist/arranger/sound mixer, your production values & attention to detail are flawless! Thank you so much!
Since the song has been uploaded I heard it at least 20 times. And I will come back often to hear it. It‘s so perfect, Darwin, the girls, Toby, Johnny and Tim - it‘s just wonderful! It‘s a kind of peace for an old man like me, like a journey back in the times of the 1970ies, the time of my youth, the time I thought was gone and somehow lost. Through F&F it's back, that feeling of carefree youth, hanging out with friends and singing. So when I feel depressed, I know what to do: open the F&F channel, listen... and enjoy! Thank you for what you give me and all the others who love you so much!
search for southern cross brought me here. OMG IM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!! Sorry CSN this is my favorite version
See also their great covers of "Suite" Helplessly Hoping, Carry On, and a new one coming very soon.
I always enjoy Darwin's lead vocals. What really makes this performance smokin hot is when everyone else kicks in with the awesome harmonies. The instrumentals put the whole experience over the top! I never cease to be amazed by the talents of every F & F member and how perfectly you all combine!
Difficult lead phrasing. Great job!!!
Darwin is a very talented musician, I love his guitar playing and singing as well.
F & F and Darwin, Been playing CSN & CSNY . . " Humm. . 20 years? someone was a fan?? 😄❤Helpless Hoping at the T Taco better? Yes ! th-cam.com/video/AaqTl1jLdkE/w-d-xo.html
I thought Darwin was a baritone. But that man can sing straight up lead tenor.
Found this group on liz lieber page thanks so much for sharing and if you like foxes and fossils check out liz too.
Wow! Great interpretation….like I never really heard the meaning before
Just found you guys and you are now one of my favorite channels to share with friends! Truly awesome! And I Love the Name!
Be sure to tell them to hit the orange F&F logo to go to the complete video list...
THIS IS THE BEST RECORDING OF SOUTHERN CROSS SINCE CROSBY, STILL, AND NASH/
Agree with that
Actually its better !!
For the album,Art Garfunkel stood in for David Crosby, who was busy with drug and legal issues.
It’s perfection.
Timothy B Schmidt (Poco, Eagles) also helping out on backing vocals)
Southern Cross has always been one of my CSN favorites and you guys do an awesome job with it. takes me straight back to my youth when it came out. I loved it then and I still love it. Magnificent.
Darwin, the sleeper voice in the group. He killed it with the last two releases. Look forward to more lead from him in the future.
Amen, Dar! More from you!!!
LOVE YOU GUYS . . . thank you for the music you make
Great cover of one of my favorite songs.
Ladies and gentlemen you absolutely knocked another one out of the ballpark. Great job everybody!!
Awesome! As a fossil myself, it’s nice to see other guys my age who still know how to rock!! Rock on, my friends!
Plus, I just listened into the Crosby, Stills, and Nash version, and I like yours better. This is now the canonical Southern Cross.
Great to hear Darwin up front,,,,,,great arrangement, awesome harmonies,.....superb, thanks.
Beautiful voices all of you in harmony, but ESPESIALLY the old bullet leading the song - extremely well done!!! One old chap to another!!!
Darwin "Dar" Conort lead vocalist.
... and certified "old bullet"! :)@@lynwessel2471
One of my favorites from CSNY although CSN on this cut. Great harmonies as always. Love it!
Stills, Nash, and Garfunkel on the album.
Those "Arouuuunnddd the world" phrases and how he lifts at the phrase end! What breath control. Super technique.
So magnificent - these musicians truly understand the powerful emotional core of this song. Their perfect harmony makes anyone's heart sing again.
I'm in my 70's now and warmly reminisce about my younger days when I hear these songs. I often share F & F's songs, talents and harmonies. Thanks for the memories!
Simply one of the best music experiences. Nova Scotia wants to adopt F&F!!!!!
love this they do it all so well..Awesome job everyone
My gosh, after listening to this, I just graduated from high school; but I just remembered that was 47 years ago.😢
These guys are so effing good they bring tears to my eyes.
Still's' lyrics are a masterpiece of storytelling. I love this song for so many reasons. Great cover.
Better than the original
@@gerrymasterman5766 Uh, no. Great version but not better than the original. The original is ethereally beautiful. This version, though beautiful, is a bit more "in your face."
Beautiful old friends. Thanks fellow babies.
Great song. Nice job crew….excellent job Darwin.
I always have loved Darwin's unique voice, very folksy like Gordon lightfoot. Your band is something of a miracle, to bring together so many completely different sounds and styles of vocals, and still come up with such unity. A lot of people appreciate what you are doing, especially after listening to modern r and b or pop.
I totally agree with the Gordon Lightfoot vibe he has going on here.
today marks the 127th time i have listened to this version of this song.....still never gets old!!!!!!
If you ever sailed, it goes straight to the heart......great song harmony and lyrics
I'm not far behind tbh
@@scottgorman7166 Ive never sailed myself but Id Imagine anyone who's sailed, especially in the Pacific, would relate to this song immensely. Listening to this song always use to make me think of what sailing would be like. Not the same as actually doing it I know
@@floydkingi4364 if you're near water and they have a way to experience it whether on a lake or ocean give it a try and you'll see what I mean. Oh its wonderful.
this is one of my favorite songs by CSandN .. also Jimmy Buffet..My wife is Nicaraguan, when I hear this song I think about all our times in San Juan del Sur..beautiful kids..
This is possibly the best assembly of musicians I have ever listened to. (I am pretty old and have listened to many) They are almost perfect.
Man that fossil can really sing!!! Love this group so much.......
Mr Darwin Conort.
Great treatment of a song properly focused and finished by Stephen Stills.
We need TH-cam to give us a “million likes” button to push. I would push it every time. Great job.
It needs to go back to the 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating system. Some things are only worth 2 or 3. Giving 5 meant it was great!
The guy singing lead was on point and the harmonies were sublime. Great job.
Darwin Concert, original band member in 2010 who returned in 2019 when the group started recording music and video in the studio.
@@John_Hazeldene Thanks.
Best Harmonies that I've Heard from F&F!! Dar, You are just Phenomenal!!! Congrats and Thanks to All F&F!!!
Agreed. Fabulous harmony
Better than the original. Thank you for giving me a key back to long ago memories.
What a gift ya'll are to us.
Toby is always so inconspicuous, reserved - and then he hits you with a solo that you start to dream! I love him - like all the F&F!
If you're speaking about the gentleman who hits those high notes on the guitar, I agree. He just let his instrument take center stage. Such a talent.
Yes, that‘s Toby. Really talented, a maestro on the guitar!
Actually, that's Darwin on guitar. As well as singing lead.
Never mind. Darwin does have most of the lead, until Toby slips in with the solo at 3:38
I love the fact that Toby never wastes a note. Every one is needed and no unnecessary 'whiddling'.
Darwin your a star amongst stars. Great cover as usual from a great band .
Thank you for the song (Fantastic) and also the production quality of these videos, I love to see all of the tracks being created by their respective artists and then compiled together in the video.
Great interpretation of a challenging song. You do so well in CSN songs, I'd love to hear 'Wasted On The Way'. But, pay me no mind follow your muse and we'll be right behind you loving every minute!
That’s a great song. Haven’t heard it in years. I think I’ll queue it up next.
Stay tuned for more classic CSN in 2024…
can't stop listening to them! This song is perfect in their voices!
I saw the video of Cost of freedom, and now "Souther Cross", my eyes begin to cry it´s magnificus your interpretation. God bless you. Thanks you for your beatiful job.
I come back to F&F over and over. Everything they do is absolutely amazing..
C S & N are being very well represented. These tunes never get old. Masterful!
Really good. This is one of my all-time favorite songs and while I don't think anyone can sing it quite like Stills, I really like this rendition. Nicely done.
Look up awesome in a dictionary, you'll see these guys pictures. I've listened to , and been amazed by, many of their incredible covers. This one stands at the top I believe.
Beautiful cover of one of my favorite songs!
Yeah, that was a winner. Great job everybody, especially Darwin. Amazing harmonies, amazing guitars, keyboards and amazing drums.
This is the CSN song that turned me on to F&F's. In early 2018 I was listening to the CSN version and F&F's Suite Judy Blues Eyes showed up in my recommended list. Not particulary fond of covers, I decided to give it a listen and was immediately blown away with the harmonies and Darwin's and Scott's guitar playing. Needless to say I ended up going down a rabbit hole, went to Tim's channel, listened to the rest of the songs that he had posted and subscribed to the channel. Later I went to the website to order the 2 CD's and the DVD. At the time the DVD was out-of-stock so I waited until it was available again and placed my order. I received my confirmation and a note on the website said Tim was on a cruise and the order would be fulfilled when Tim returned.. Listening to the CD's and watching the DVD I was not disappointed, except for the fact they were not performing anymore. I was pleasantly surprised when Chase, Sammie and Maggie put out the "What Song Will They Cover Next" video in April 2019. Now if they just overcome all the obstacles and do a live performance.
Glastonbury 2023?
Gosh, almost exactly the same as me, I could have written that. :)
Me too about two years ago.
That’s pretty much my story too
Same here. Your story is my story.
