    Todd Rundgren wrote this song for chase, 40 plus years ago...but neither of them knew it! The perfect choice for the perfect voice!
    The production, blending, and subtle crescendo makes this so brilliant!

    I’ve commented on this before, but I want to comment again. This band is incredible. And, in this instance, the most incredible performance is that of Chase. It’s almost unbelievable what she is able to do worth her voice. That note she holds toward the very end is amazing. Amazing! How she can hold it for so long and stay in key and not sound like she’s straining is, well, incredible. I’m not a person of many words, and you can see I use the same words frequently, but I was so moved by this performance. I’ve found it moving every time I’ve watched, but never this much. Perhaps it’s the state of the world we’re in. I don’t know. But thank you, Chase, and all the Foxes and Fossils, for giving this fossil a shred of hope. ❤️

    A huge F&F fan, this is the first time I’ve left a comment. I don’t even know where to start. Just when I think I’ve seen every video, heard every song, I’m thrilled to find one I’ve somehow missed, and this is easily up there with the best they have ever done. Tim’s skill at mixing and production is phenomenal. The way he can bring the sound of tracks performed at different times and in different places to such an perfect whole is truly amazing. I adore Sammie (I would listen to her sing her grocery list) and Maggie too, and nothing beats the harmony of the three girls together. But Chase may just have the most naturally rich voice of all. I hope and pray that everyone continues to find ways to pursue their incredible talents. They obviously love performing. And I know it’s difficult as life pulls everyone in different directions, but I hope they find ways to get together and make their beautiful music from time to time. And on a selfish note, for our sakes too. Can never get enough of F&F. Many thanks to you all. God bless.

    Tim Purcell is the luckiest SOB on the planet! How in the hell can one man assemble this much AMAZING talent into one band. I'm a musician and I've started a few club bands over the years, (Chicagoland area), and while I've worked with some good musicians and singers, none came even close to this. F&F is world class all the way!

    • @kenbradley1480
      @kenbradley1480 3 года назад +16

      They originally started when Maggie and Sammie were 15, just as a way to get a little extra cash for the girls for college, they added Chase when she was 15, when Maggie went off to college, he never expected that they would become as popular as they are now, I really think the pandemic has really helped them become even more successful because being quarantined people have been on here more than ever before.

    I’ve got to admit I was initially a bit confused why F&F added a third female singer. After hearing Chase on this song, it became clear. Chase, this was brilliant and beautiful. Cudos x 10!

    • @lynwessel2471
      @lynwessel2471 Месяц назад +3

      Chase joined the band in 2015 when Maggie was unable to continue due to college and work in Nashville. They quit playing in 2017 as Chase left for college. In 2019 Maggie asked Tim if they could possibly do studio recordings as members were living in 5 states at the time. So in Sept 2019 they reunited and Maggie and Darwin returned to the group.

    Anyone not getting goosebumps with Chase killing it at 4:10 should go ahead and get in the hearse. There is no way that there is a singer alive that could do a performance any better than that. Chase, best job ever based on all of those found of you on the RUclipss. Congrats, great job.

      @Mario Lopez I do radio and it's amazing to me how fast this has happened. In about 5 years, more than half of the music I play is independently released (i.e. from the band's own web site or their streaming accounts) rather than through a label. Bands have found out that they might sell half teh number of songs they used to with a label, but they get to keep most of the money and they dont have label weenies telling them what they have to sing and what they have to wear etc.

      When F&F did a cover of Mamas and the Papas, "Say a Little Prayer" I thought how are they gonna hit those powerful high notes by Cass Elliot? Chase did it. But, Here's the big question, why was she out front on this softly delicate tune?
