This is one of the best songs ever written. I think because it’s so relatable to most people. I’ve realized humans are so much more alike then we think.
I think it’s inspirational to always be working towards something better 🥰
And here in 2024 we have a white country singer doing another great cover of this classic song.
@@elmoblatch9787 "white country singer"?
@@pandadoublexl Yes. A white dude who sings country did a cover. It is also dope. Tracy Chapman wrote a timeless banger.
I said the same thing immediately in my head... These people just don't get it man. They'll say "it's 2024 bro!" like that is supposed to mean something dot dot question mark
I say "It's 2024, time to wake up! You'll thank us in 2044..."
"Leave tonight or live and die this way." There were never more powerful lyrics than those for anyone who has felt trapped...Tracey Chapman knew what that was like to be able to write this...
Well said.
It resonates different for me now then it did years ago. SO POWERFUL
@@r-erin2go380 still relevant along with her entire album Fast Car is on.
@@christinacope562 Yes it is...means even more now to me than it did in 1988 💖
@@r-erin2go380 I hope you've had a good as possible journey throughout that time. < hugs>
Thanks #PUMAPACK Spread the word!

Great version, the best of luck for you.
Beautiful. Thank you. You guys were the last show I saw, pre-pandemic. 191 Toole in Tucson. So much has changed since. But I will never forget it.
You guys are awesome
Holy shit this cover is transcendent.
I'll bet you're comparing this to the album version, but have you heard Tracy Chapman's live acoustic version? This is almost a note-for-note copy of it. ruclips.net/video/IxXO2ybSvfg/видео.html

I've heard a lot of covers of this song, but this ranks at the top.
'The passengers' for me , This was amazing too though ❤️
I concur
Who's the singer of this song? I thought that they were😲
@@raquelinemonteiro1148 Tracy Chapman ❤️
@@raquelinemonteiro1148 Lmao! Tracy Chapman is the original. All of her music is great.
A Tracy Chapman classic in the hands of the right guys! Thank you Black Pumas for that! 🇧🇷
For sure 🇫🇷
Tracy Chapman's timeless lyrics.
Exactly! Feels genuine. So well done.
Amei, acabei de conhecer esta banda maravilhosa e já virei fã !! BRASIL/RJ
Dale🇧🇷🇧🇷
Very hard to cover this song. It's a anthem and Tracy is really unique.
But you made it with your own touch.
Respect from France by a real music lover :)
I bet Tracy Chapman is totally digging this beautifully done cover!! :)
his voice brings me to tears. my dad and I listened to covers of this song and he has been gone for 3 years now. this is a beautiful cover sang by one of the most beautiful voices. thank you Eric
These guys are better live in one take than most acts are with a full studio behind them
After hearing several songs by this band, I'm convinced this dude has the best voice in music right now!
I concur!
I bought their deluxe album off Amazon having heard 35 seconds of the first track.
My God. I'm going to wear the grooves out on this one.
Agreed! Peace, Love, & Light💕💕💕

😂😂😂😂😂😂crazy as hell.
Really Grateful I gave these guys a listen… Heard about them sometime ago .. Incredible Band.. At this stage of my life….. Music is more precious than Gold ✊🏼
Truly one of the best versions of this legendary song.
thank you for making this song real again musically, while its reality has never left us.
I know Stephen had to record his "thank you" without hearing the song, but it was such a stark difference between the gravity of what I was feeling after hearing it, and then hearing Stephen say thank you with such levity
How have I not heard of Black Pumas??? This is amazing.
Kick ass!! Couldn't be anyone better for this song!!
I cannot say enough about Black Pumas. My soul is so happy . Thank you so much.
I didn't know I could like this song more than I already did.
Countless times I've listened to Tracy Chapman's original on repeat.
This version is just.. wow. It hits so hard, it's...intense. And, wow. Just, wow.
This is a very soulful performance, which is so lacking in our modern world!
That acoustasonic though 😍
This is my favorite song of all time. I have finally found my favorite cover after listening to hundreds.
Still... absolutely heart breaking economy in this song. And so well rendered here. Bravo.
Tracy's version is untouchable. That being said this was righteous AF. 🖤
Love that 80s windbreaker, brings me back.
He's got a cool sense of style for sure
This is a difficult song to vocalize but loved this - I could almost taste the effort and passion. Excellent work. I am going to have to pick up my guitar.
Damn that was smooth. The sound and tone of the guitars was on point and excellent vocals! New fan
What a pleasant surprise: One of my newest favorites band performing one of my all-time favorite songs. NICE!!!
I have chills all over my body
RELEVANT &POWERFUL!Tracy is a Griot &This cover by the BlackPumas is Medicine for our Souls !
The tone on that tele is absolutely incredible.
People kinda hate on them for a couple of reasons, but the fender acoustasonic guitars are insanely good. They're also insanely expensive, but it's not really an instrument for a hobbyist as much as it is a professional tool.
@@mmonkeyman1403 I chose the taylor t5z over it . I found the taylor just sounded way better unplugged and plugged. This set up on this one was great though
@@jimmysupafly1547 Yeah it makes sense that the taylor would be better unplugged at the very least. Like I said, those Acoustasonic fenders are really meant for touring musicians. They've created a few product lines in the past few years with that idea in mind.
Dude, your voice brings tears to my eyes. So much emotion and beauty.
It is hard to cover a Tracy Chapman song because she is such an amazing artist with a uniqueness in her music, but this cover was great and by far my favorite cover of this song!
Love this band! How cool to interpret the great Tracy Chapman🎶🎸❤!
Best band of the decade. No doubt😍
Cried so much during the song. There's much pressure everywhere.
They cry with you, cuz lifes like that sometimes. If they dont, tell em keep on driving, much love, hope youre holding that chin high
Praying for you Love
crying is cleaning for the soul ^__^) big hug from the other side of the world ...
I feel you ...
This should have been the Grammy performance this year.
What would Tracey Chapman had done then? So you are saying he should have came on and performed his rendition or he and Tracey performed this rendition as a duet? Guess i'm not following. I think this would have been doing too much given that people wanted to see Tracey and wanted her to jettison us back to the future with it's original version.Just my opinion.
@@imhereforitall9218 I meant that Black Pumas should have been in place of the country performer. I would have loved to see them with Ms. Chapman!
Ok. I would pay to go seem individually. He's electric!!!@@daviddorsey3321
Cant wait to watch for them on the Grammy's. Really the only reason I want to see the Grammys
Never heard of these guys before, but this performance is amazing. Probably the best cover of Fast Car I have ever heard
😌🎧🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶 Here for Puma's, for life.
If my heart had a voice, it'd be The Black Puma's 👏🏾✊🏿
Amazing words😭😭😭😭
Can I copy them?
@@raquelinemonteiro1148 sure
@@Badchocobo thaaaaank!
The second guitarist is playing harmony, which takes this song to another place. I'd like to hear some light harmony vocals. I bet that would be amazing
born in a small town... i wore this cassette out when i was young.. such soulful lyrics.. great job on the cover..
This song to me, is one of those that is just un"cover"able. It's just too iconic. I have to admit, they did a really good job with this version.
So happy to hear Pumas version of Fast Car!
One of the best songs ever written!!!! Beautiful cover!!
God, I miss when a somewhat simple pop song could be written with such conviction, that it can still stir you 30 years later.
Her performance in Africa though!!!
Ahhh
This song is great but I don't think it's pop
Just literally cried listening to the original, which led me here
I'm not sure what you're saying here. Are you saying the music the Pumas are currently creating is lesser to Fast Car 30 years? Are you saying that you think Colors will not stir souls in 30 years time? Sir, I suggest you go re listen to their album.
Goosebumps , I love the original but also love your version and no better band to cover this song than you .
Thank you ❤️
A beautiful, earnest cover. I think Tracy Chapman would be proud of this. Hopefully she's seen it!
Seeing Eric perform this tonight (and the rest of y'all for every other song) was magical.
How do you take a song and performance that is already perfect and make it more perfect?
This. This is how.
What. A. Gorgeous. Cover. I am overcome.
This. This is how it's done.
I knew I'll love it before it started. Was definitely right.
So stunning. My favorite band this year, favorite album of the year 😍😍😍
Fã BR na área. 🇧🇷
"Tamu junto" rs Brasil/RJ
Dahora essa banda ,tô viciado
Oh my - this is so lovely - thank you to TC for writing this heart wrenching song and to the BP’s for singing the FIRE out of it💔❤️💔❤️
OMG! How did I miss this?! I love Colbert (and his wife and dog) and Black Pumas and Tracy Chapman!
This is just a magical trifecta of goodness 🌈🦄🥳
Hermosa versión de un maravilloso tema...with my wife we love Black Pumas...
Absolutely spectacular performance. This will sit in my mind and heart for quite sometime.
Usually do not like covers but this really does justice to the song. Black Pumas are amazing🤟🏻
This is such a beautiful interpretation of this song.
I have listened to this song so many times, but not once did it connect with me like this version just did! Simply beautiful. Thank you.
Just as heart wrenching as I remember. Well done!
Coisa mais linda!! Congratulations guys! From Brazil!
Love these guys. One listen to Colors was all I needed to know how incredible this duo is and his voice😍
Maravilhoso ❤️
Nothing at all against Luke Combs, but I don't understand how his version has taken off and this is only known by Black Puma fans.
Because this cover sucks. Luke Combs version is way better
Thank you for recognizing the superior cover over Luke’s version!!!!!
....music, pure, simple, beautiful, heart and soul and real!!! We don’t get much of this anymore, so it’s nice to see every once in a while that real music is still alive and well.
How beautiful! I used to listen to Tracy every day ☺️
Didn't know who this group was until the Grammy performances.
I fell in love then and still in love and since.
Omgoodness I felt this deep down in my soul!! Wow!!
Very well done. Kudos. Love Tracy Chapman and they did her proud.
The fact he covered one of my favorite songs makes me love them that much more!!!
I love Black Pumas! One of my fav bands. Also love his jacket!
I saw them perform in a house about two years ago in Baton Rouge. I knew then that these guys were amazing and here they are now on late night shows.
This is one of those songs that makes you shed a tear. Brother right here really sang with so much emotion
Everything you guys touch turns to gold.🙌🙌
Tracy. . . Timeless 😍
i absolutely adore this song, the lyrics are gold, a real work of art.. ♥
Lead singer is very photogenic. Reminds me of the actor in Speed with the Jaguar. Great music Gents and Best Regards!
Last song i was truly blown away by.. At the last concert pre -pandemic in Dublin 🥰 save the best for last
Absolutely beautiful 😊👍❤️ love discovering new music artists.
Tracey Chapman opened such a beautiful queer portal with "Fast Car." My heart is crying with joy.....HAPPY PRIDE!!!
So few covers nail the chorus the way this one does 😮
Thank you for introducing me to this beautiful song, with such a wonderful cover no less. Mad respect to Black Pumas!

Pure Talent !! Beautiful take on a Classis Tracy Chapman song !!

One of my favorite 'Tracy Chapman favorite songs', I would listen to this song over in my car, Black Pumas you did such an amazing job.
Wow, gorgeous rendition of a timeless powerful song
Cuts to the quick every time. One of the best covers ever.
I was scared at first but okay, okay they did not disappoint Tracy would be proud. They put just the right amount of umph on it 😍😍😍
