I wish I could hit the Like button everytime I hear this song.
…and all the others too
Having just read an article that noted Scott King's passing, my thoughts flashed back to this song, and the amused look on Scott's face when Sammie springs the surprise lyric change about Maggie's then impending departure for college. It shows just how much the Fossils enjoyed working with the Foxes in those earlier days.
I never had the pleasure to see any live performances, and in my seventies would have a hard time justifying driving from Jersey to Georgia just to hear a band. However, as one who has been banging a gong to direct people to listen to F&F for a couple years now, it saddens me to know of Scott's passing and the loss all the F&F members are feeling.
Rest in peace, Scott.
Scott was a big fan of powerhouse female vocalists and introduced the girls to a lot of music. "Oh, you gotta do this one" He was always up to date on the latest, Sammie said she remembered being so pleased when he asked her if she had heard of Haim and she actually had before he did!
How sad is to hear this. I come pretty often to see this very live performance because I admire "what's going on" throughout the whole song (the harmonies firstly, but then all the instruments and how they blend), and as it is incredibly well recorded -especially for a live performance - the bass and its behind-the-lines notes add so much to the blend. Something that non-musicians often times don't notice. And that's the bassist achievement above everything. Recquiescat in pacem. ✌🏻
Amen
They do have two live shows scheduled, December 29 & 30 2022, in Hapeville, near the Atlanta airport. Ticket details should appear very soon, but it's solid enough to make your travel arrangements.
Stop in for a quick listen. Bam! There goes 2 hours
I love this song so much,,,,,but how many of you have their eyes glued to Scott. I miss him so much and I never even knew him. I can't imagine how much the band must miss him.
The fossils had all known him from 20-30 years. He joined the Mustangs when Sammie was 6 .He enjoyed the great female vocalists and brought the foxes lots of ideas for songs they should try. He was always up on the latest hit songs/groups as well.
I love everything about this song …Lead vocal is fantastic and Maggie’s expression when Sammie changes the lyrics on verse 3 is Priceless..
Definitely a touching moment...
How in God's name did they pull off such beautiful music in a parking lot?? Singing into storefronts, with traffic going by and people walking their dogs.... I'm just amazed at the incredible artistry and musicianship, triply so under these conditions. Such a clean, gorgeous sound. Major props to their video/audio producer. Imagine what they could do on a big stage in front of 5,000 people.

@@dougsalzmann2752 Thank you. This band knows what it's doing.
It will be in front of 300 people, not 5,000, but the dates are set: December 29 & 30 2022, in Hapeville, near the Atlanta airport. Ticket details should appear very soon, but it's solid enough to make your travel arrangements.
That, ladies and gentleman, is how you do vocal harmony.

@@timdake Oh pleeeease ...
As good as any I've ever heard (been listening since '67)
A dying art..we need much more of that..70s rock a dime a dozen and never gets old
3:20 Oooooooonnnnnnnnnn!!! If you listen closely, you can hear her voice almost crack just before she belts out this one word. So much emotion tied up in that moment, but she holds it together just long enough. One of the most touching moments I've ever seen in any video by anyone, anywhere. Live, real, unrehearsed.
Stuart: You noticed . . . . you got it! Thanks!! RH, age 70, Prague, CZ
Every one of these people is a one in a million virtuoso. For them to all be together is a cosmic alignment only God will ever fully understand.
Ok buddy , thats a little bit of a stretch dont ya think .
You’re a master of understatement, I see
the heavens open and out pops Maggie Adams!
Hello I am from México, is the first time that i listen to this band, The fossils are excelent musicians, Sammie and Maggie , sing like the angels. I have listened this song with Carrie Underwood, but too like me how sing Sammie this song. My english isn´t good, but i like the music, and this band is genial. Saludos desde Mexico

You expressed yourself ELOQUENTLY!!! Great comment!!!
Your English may not be good, but your taste in music is!
Roberto, todos te entendieron perfectamente porque la música es el idioma que todos hablamos. Como habrás notado, Foxes and Fossils no se trata de otra cosa que de la música y de esta genial "banda familiar". Realmente son geniales, ¿que no?
@@Simulera Hola Chris, gracias por el comentario, es muy agradable escuchar a músicos tan buenos y profesionales y las voces de Maggy y Sammy que me encantan y varias canciones para mí en lo personal se oyen mejor con ellos qué los originales y aunque adoro a Belinda Carlisle no puedo negar que hoy escucho más la versión de Our lipps are sealed de foxes and fossils qué la de the go go's, saludos
Sammy put so much feeling into this song!❤
Sam is known in The Netherlands, beautiful song and sung. Stay strong Sammie.
I'm blown away that this magic happened at a Taco joint.
Not just a Taco joint, the parking lot, outside a taco joint.
@@JCS1956AZ It's on the Twisted Taco patio. See their Join Patreon video for a good look at it, and note all the traffic noise.
As many times as I watch these videos, I don’t think Sammi knows how good she really is.
And the Grammy goes to, Foxes and Fossils!
Sammie doesn't just "sing" this she "feels" it. That's what I like best about her singing. She can make me cry with her vocals.
Love the way they sing out... Sammie and Maggie just fearless when it comes to lighting the candles of their voices
When Sammie sings, "tomorrow she'll be on I24 Nashville"...and the look on Maggie's face is priceless!!
The double take, the confusion, the realization....just pricelss
Makes me tear every time.
Life Goes On
I can't make out the next line. Anyone know what follows immediately after that?
@@josephself2610 Belmont U, the university she went off to - same amount of syllables as when pronouncing LSU - clever little adaptation :)
I can’t believe it has been 6 months and this still hasn’t gotten the last 30,000 views to hit 1 million. Still about 1200 short. What is wrong with RUclips’s algorithm? What is crazy is I listen to this at least once a day so about 300 of those views are mine.
I listen to it once or more times a day as well. A mystery.
Dear Lord of Heavens, I was stuck on Landslide and I missed this one....Sammie, all angels looked down to see who was singing....
Nothing better than Sammie belting out a song filled with true emotion. When she sings from the heart it is pure magic. How long till this video has a million views?
IMO 1 million should have happened years ago. I really don’t understand how some of these older songs of Sammies have so few views.
August 2023 apparently
This is my favorite song sung by Sammie. She has such a sweet and beautiful voice.
Mine too, until she came out with "Neon Moon"!
@@aardvarkusrex have you listened to sweet nothins? She has fun with that one too. I think it's in the same set.
The entire band is perfect on it - but that is always the case!
I never heard this song until now. I had no idea that Carrie Underwood did this song. That is a REAL SONG: it tells a real story that so many of us have gone through. I am a musician and the first thing that I did, at the end of this song was to play it again, and again, and...the song is SO WELL WRITTEN. And another thing I LOVE, being a musician NO PITCH CORRECTION!!! These people know how to sing, harmonize, know how to play their instruments, just really impressive; the first time I saw and heard this band was their cover of Suite: Judy Blue eyes. THAT WAS AMAZING! If you're a band and not at their level, keep rehearsing. Oh, and I laughed so hard, and felt soooo good when Sammie changed the lyric for Maggie and she looked completely surprized; and then have to sing harmony!!! Way to go, girl! That WAS IMPRESSIVE!!!
Of all the great things about F&F the love they show for each other is by far the best.
Holy C! I've been listening to Fs and Fs for a while, but I've never run across this Carrie Underwood cover. Sammi's high register is so strong, and there she was, way back at the Twisted Taco, with Maggie on harmonies, just nailing the heck out of this song. Wow!
My favorite F&F version... young passionate belting it out full emotion in a parking lot.
playing it for 28th time today - 2May'21 :D
Sammie does a great job of conveying the emotion of such a sad song. The music is spot on, but the biggest treat is listening to Scott's bass lines. RIP, Mr. King.
Sammie's voice is clear as a bell, reaching those top notes so effortlessly, total control of vibrato and resisting the temptation to bend the melody so far that it looks like a pretzel. I would travel a long way to see F&F live in concert, but I understand the difficulties of making that happen. What an incredibly talented band.
Agreed...her vocal control so solid
They do have two live shows scheduled, December 29 & 30 2022, in Hapeville, near the Atlanta airport. Ticket details should appear very soon, but it's solid enough to make your travel arrangements.
@@StuartMStrickland All done :-)
I have just discovered foxes and fossils they are awesome.
There great id like to kick back have a couple beers 🍻 and listen to them 👌
Getting back to normal for me means listening to the Foxes harmonize on the patio in the summertime. Sammie and Maggie were made to sing together
Whoever setup the live sound balance deserves an award.
It was remixed for the video, But they did have a very good sound man mixing it for the live audience as well.
@@lynwessel2471 Thanks for the feedback. He did do a great job on the mix.
@@merlepatterson Tim does the engineering for the videos with help from Toby.
The I 24/Belmont U joke plus Scott King grin :
2:44
Priceless
Only Tim and Sammie knew it was coming according to Scott.
The look on Maggie's face is priceless when she realizes what Sammie pulled off! ❤️
Likely a reference to Maggie heading off to Nashville, right?
Watching the sequence of Maggie's reaction is very funny. She's confused at first, not exactly sure if what she's hearing from Sammie is what she's hearing, then glances at Tim, who's probably smiling at her, which tells her, "yep, it's what I'm hearing," then gives one last glance back at Scott wondering if he's in on it too, and his stare right at her pretty much tells the story. They're all in on it! Got her!
And yet Maggie recovers and continues to sing her part. One of the marks of a true musician. Not bad for A youngster!
@@mikeknowles8017
"One of the marks of a true musician." Maybe even the best mark. It is then that we know that Heaven descended on earth for a little while ...
Makes me tear up every time! Precious moment!
Sammi is an Angel, the more i listen to her the more i think she has a great musical future.
This is one of my favorites. Sammie doesn't just sing the song, she lives it. I was all the happier to find that the recording on the live album sounds a lot better on a good stereo system than the RUclips version (more treble and bass, better dynamics, better transparency), even though it's the same recording (next day Maggie is again "on I-24 Nashville, Belmont U, Eighteen years in her rear-view", 2:43).
Has anybody commented on the glance and Sammie's head shake at 0:38? You can tell getting through this song was a struggle right from the beginning. This song is my current F&F favorite. Sammie's emotion of living the lyrics is over the top good. I cant help being drawn in to her emotion. What a performance.
I can't get over how perfectly Sammie sings this song and come back often to hear it. The way the song builds to an exhilarating finale at 3:17 gives me shivers of emotion, it's just so beautiful.
Having viewed many, many FF covers I think this performance is Sammie's best. She just seems so emotionally into the song and expresses the heartfelt passion of the song so well. It just comes out of her. Fantastic performance, Sammie!
She was into it because the last verse was for Maggie who was leaving for college for the first time the next day .
I've watched this video everyday for the last 2 months (sometimes multiple times in a day) because it's so shamefully under-viewed. And I will keep watching it everyday until it reaches the view count it deserves. Yes, I'm obsessed with this song and F&F's performance.
I've been watching for 3 years....
867,819 views later... okay, we're getting to where it deserves to be ^^
Sammie definitely pours her heart out on this song. I listen to this band everyday and this song may quickly become one of my most listened to songs. Thank you Foxes and Fossils
A sweetness between band mates that is all to rare. Never a jealous moment detected, just genuine love that comes from Christian values. Bless you all wherever you are now.
I am a Boomer and I like the songs, like this one, that the girls pick, the ones they like, from their generation. A teen song, sung by a teen. Great stuff! The last verse and the embrace at the end, super charming!
Maggie was off to college for the first time the next day.
Damn Tim you are one lucky man ,you got to be Proud of that child !!!!!
At your random local pizza-patio joint. Love the "real life" taking place in the background, while this immense talent is on display. It would stop me in my tracks to hear this live in my neighborhood. Good God.
loved how sammie sent last verse to maggie before her trip to nashville .. both girls are so beautiful today ...wish them both so much luck..
Larry Smith
@sorellman Yeah, instead of Baton Rouge and LSU, Sammie made it Nashville and Belmont U., which is where Maggie was getting ready to attend. That was sweet, and the look on Maggie's face was enough to bring a tear to my eye.
2024. Looking back.
When my daughters went to college, they were gone.
No longer our babies. Bittersweet 😢
It‘s drove me to tears to see Sammie will miss Maggie. ❤️ for all of you from Berlin, Germany.
Stumbled across this, but boy was it good. Beautiful vocals and tight band.
70+ excellent cover songs on this channel.
It's even better when you know the backstory, and study Sammie's vocal at a couple crucial points.
When Sammie looks at Maggie and says, "Nashville...", the look on Maggie's face is priceless. Kudos to the film crew. Excellent catch!
That's cause they know
Well I will take the credit for that shot as I had the mobile cam but let’s face it, it’s about being in the right place at the right time ... never knowing but hoping to catch moments like that.
@@TerryHeinlein - you and the rest of the non-credited stage crew deserve much thanks from F&F fans around the world for your excellent video contributions. Would have loved to be in your shoes filming this awesome group. Hope you are well.
@@TerryHeinlein Thanks so very much for your work in filming these performances. They are a great treasure. The restaurant settings lend an informality and character that is so different from larger venues or the studio work. It is so great to have the combination.
@@TerryHeinlein: Thanks for popping in here, Terry! It gives us a chance to thank you for the great work you and the crew do bringing F&F to us. You're really good at what you do and we are both lucky and grateful.
Brings tears to my eyes every time I am blessed to hear this.... Thousands!
Great comments and I agree with the numerous compliments about the quality of the vocals but the videography is excellent also, focusing on the right areas at the right time and capturing Maggie's smile at that moment when it could easily have been lost. Great work with the cameras...
They used 3 cameras, helps to catch the best shots.
top shelf as usual
2:44 that's a beautiful moment, that many will miss.
Nobody ever talks about the video crew on these. Several cameras, skillfully edited. Amazing that they got this quality nine years ago!
Terry Heinlein and crew. Maggie's Dad Larry manned a camera for several shows.
Terry is visible passing behind the group with his camera 0:12 in...
Lucky folks in the audience.
2:33. Such a proud daddy!
Can you imagine this amount of sheer talent in a parking lot anywhere else in the world.....and we're we not lucky to see and hear them close up to treasure?
You can say this about any F&F tune. "Every time I hear it, I love it more." But so true seeing Scott dig in around 2:45 and watching his joy of being in the moment making extraordinary live music with his bandmates... it hits you right in the heart. Love and respect to him and them and F&F fam too.
What a lovely voice Sammie has.❤️
So glad to see this one creeping to 1 million views. Definitely one that captures the heart of the F & F sound
Gotta love these girls! Sammie and Maggie. Just pure talent!!
Sammi nailed that one. She has so much heart and soul. Tim absolutely delights in letting those ladies shine!! And they absolutely do shine...!!!
Sammie's "heart and soul" on stage remind me of Linda Ronstadt
I listen to Carrie
sing this and I swear I can hear Sammie !!! Just Awesome !!!
I just listened to Carrie's version.
Cripes.
Wait a minute - parking lots? Patios? Twisted Tacos? Somebody needs to put this group in some arenas. Incredible harmonies. I just discovered this group; was afraid to listen because of the name but I'm glad I did. Been playing music for over 50 years (I'm a REAL fossil) and this is some of the best I've heard.
Blues Brothers were their booking agency. LoL
Thank you, Bill. yr not the only old guy who noticed this phenomenon. F&F contains a contagious mix of fronters (RIP Scott King).. My favorite crew. // // I'm Out there since 1965. RH - Prague
They have a 300-seat auditorium booked for their two shows, December 29 & 30 2022, in Hapeville, near the Atlanta airport. Ticket details should appear very soon, but it's solid enough to make your travel arrangements.
Sammys best song
Don’t think this one can be topped so it’s time for the sandman... A grown man tearing up is more than I can handle.. ciao
Maggie you pulled it all together
This is my favorite of theirs, and I cycle through more than 60 of them every couple of weeks. And check out the lyrics! F&F have so many others that are stupendous, but this piece is unique. Sammie puts you right into the scene of an unwilling, unwanted, heartbreaking parting.
- RH, age 68, Prague
Once again I hear a band that I discovered while on my way home out of south GA. Had to find a place to park and grab a seat and just listen. Have followed then ever since.
This song was my introduction to the group. Still one of my favorites!
Sammie! Wow! Great vocal technique is one thing, but to put that much heart, soul, and feeling into it is impressive. My favorite F&F song so far. And of course Maggie's harmony is spot on.
The emotion was real.Maggie was leaving for college for the first time the next day.
As I listen to these early recordings, I realize that this is once in life time,not to be repeated.
Life goes on. Somehow I missed it. But grateful to the recording. It’s sad that the group didn’t get the big show then.
Every now & then (& it doesn't happen too often), I experience "love at first listen" - happened just now. WOW !
This is my favorite F & F tune. Must have watched it 20 times or more and keep coming back to it. First, it's a very well written country-pop song. It's so incredibly in-the-pocket by the backing musicians. The vocal harmony is unbelievably tight. And Sammy, oh Sammy. The song is perfect for her, and she sings it like it just happened to her. As it is sort of happening to her: Maggie is about to leave for college, so she changes the last lyric, so that emotion comes right through. Totally amazing. Plus she is so wholesome, natural and gorgeous. :-)
It’s hard to believe Sammie is such a professional and talented performer at 16 years !!
I-24 Nashville...Maggie was surprised.
@@brianambrosemcmahon8531 Sammie is 17 here, August 2012, about to start her senior year of high school.
Every time I watch it, I keep expecting Tim’s head to explode with pride at 2:20.
I watched this one over and over again. First because I find the music and the harmony of the voices so beautiful. But I also enjoy watching the interaction between musicians and the mimic on their faces. And the part where Sammy changed the lyric and the way Maggie reacts to it is golden. I just love to watch that, but I didn't know the story behind it and since I don't know the covered original (maybe it's because I'm from the Netherlands) I also didn't know a lyric had been changed. So thank you, Dave, for explaining this!
My fav is for the tom being !! Song , lol 😆
Every song this amazing group covers is better than the original !
Totally amazing vocals!
Loved it. .. was hoping for the Beatles
This should have hit a million views years ago.
I hate when a performance makes me cry. But this one does every time I listen to it.
Singing harmonies or lead....wow Sammie is amazing.
Amen.
I never really cared much for this song until I heard it done by F&F. Now I love it....they must have some magic that they introduce into the song with the great music and voices.
I just watched Carrie Underwood's video of this song and saw that Sammie has almost twice as many views as Carrie . Great job !!
Dad your daughter has a sweet face and an amazing voice. Fossils and Foxes rock!
This group has been a fantastic find during the Pandemic. Nearly very cover is IMHO better than the original. Wonderful musician-ship and harmonies. Keep it up!
I love this song, especially the I-24 to Nashville part, very well done!!!
Very touching.
Damn, those girls can sing!
So touching...a sweet tribute and I am glad they are making music together again
And a most excellent daughter she is. Sammie and Maggie are like two forces that must be joined together. They complement each other to create some incredible vocals.
That's what Tim thought years ago,so he got them together. And after 5 years of not singing together, (Chase "filled in ",did she ever!) Maggie's idea to get them back singing together again .
When our international border restrictions relax and COVID gets under control, would love to see you in Cairns, Queensland, Australia
What is left to say. When the whole world seems to be collapsing because of this Covid19 thing, you guys have given the world something to smile about. Very very well done.
Started listening to this band about six months ago absolutely amazing 🤗 wish I found em years ago. Should be lining up a world tour. ❤from wales UK

Sammie is to die for. I love maggie.
2021 this song sounds awesome
Perfection...
I think this is Sammie's best lead vocal. Clear as a bell!
She hits every single note like a pro, and I'd rather listen to her than to Carrie Underwood.
Jasper Yangchareon Sammie’s voice is so pure!

@@sorellman I listened to Carrie's rendition and Sammie is better.
Jasper Yangchareon / I also like Sammie’s lead in “Our lips are sealed” didn’t think much of the song til I heard Sammie’s clear lead on that cover.
Common this is just unreal! I dont know if any band would do it better on stage. You can feel all the joy and friendship between this band. Unlike many out there , they been doing this for 10years for pure fun of being and playing together. Thats what music is all about
I'm surprised that Miss Maggie Adams didn't start crying when Sammie Purcell changed the words to fit the occasion as it was as Maggie was getting ready to head out for Nashville...
So young - but so professional - didn't miss a slightest beat!
I missed that & glad you commented about it! (It gave me chills! As fi the band didn't already!) The look of surprise on Maggies face and Sammy's delivery/performance was out of this World angelic and from the heart!
Thanks for pointing it out!
These folks are a rare blessing.
Not going to find this much honesty and heart anywhere.
