@@Termiteboss their song choices have been bad the last few months. I totally agree. Too much R & B, that wasn't real big in the 70's and 80's, at least not in the US. I'd even like to hear a 60's tune like "You didn't have to be so Nice", by the Lovin Spoonful, great layering and overdubbing..etc
One of my favorite songs of the 1970s, brilliantly covered by Singit Live! Once again, I have to state how good it is to see and listen to Mel McCaig, her performance was absolutely perfect! Congrats to all the talented musicians for this great job! And, of course, kudos to Darren @producernerd Mullan for another extraordinaire production! Have a nice weekend, everyone!
Welcome back Mel - takes me straight back to 1975 - simple song that has a big impact on my memory of growing up in the 70's - great job as always singitlive team 🙏👌👏🎤🎶
You done it again…. Come on what can’t you do. The vocals, the harmonies the perfect pitch of the instruments, the drums. You captured the moment and the enthusiasm shines through. Well done to everyone and thank you.👌
Hello band... sensational... Melissa show apart... beautiful voice with a refined technique, very feminine, charming and friendly. Perfect instruments and backing vocals. Excellent presentation
Love it. Love Melissa, one classy person indeed. Everyone spot on as usual, but I must say Mr Crafty is a one-person entertainment package. Thanks all! ❤
Fantastic performance all round of one of my favourite 70s songs. Composer Neil Sedaka is criminally underrated despite having written some of the best loved songs from the 60s and 70s.
Sing it Live you’ve done it again and I’m just blown away each week performance after performance!! Youve taken a 70’s classic and swung and knocked it out of the park. Loved the guitar solo creating something special with a new spin on it and making it your own. That was so much fun that while listening to it I became the captain on my own Yacht rock and sailed away right to 1975 all over again!!!
How can you not love Mel? Exceptional talent. I was hoping to catch her again at the feast last Sunday with Mark Anthony but alas not this year. Caught up with Mario again though 👍 Great work gang.
Sing it Live is so much like Countdown….you sit back during the week and hope your favourite song/s will get played on the weekend 😀. Awesome work everyone…..thanks
Jimmy from Chicago….I’m a new follower from the states….thank you so much !!! ….68 yrs. Old….Captain and Tennille….great memories….you guys smoke!!!😊😊😊❤
I have to play the lottery one of these days... I just knew Mel was going to perform. And perform she did! I grew up listening to Captain and Tennille... love their music and I love this too. Lately, y'all are doing a lot more of the 70's classics...I'm still hoping to hear Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons "Who Loves You" soon. God bless from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 🙏
The Captain & Tenille were my first live concert as a teenager. This song was being played everywhere. In the last couple of days I played it several times and listened to a couple of interviews with Toni. One of the very best songs of my youth. C&T would be impressed with how well you have performed it! Great, great production!
Saw Captain & Tennille with my parents in the late '70s. Also saw Neil Sedaka around 1978. Thus, I've heard both the original composer's (Sedaka) version and the most famous version of it (C&T) played live!
It's wonderful to hear something from my junior high times. Starting to miss your singing Mel. I actually have been watching some of your older performances. 😊
Smashed it again guys, great song written by Neil Sedaka takes me back to 75 when i was doing my paper round with a cassette player in my bag playing captain and tennile version.
This really brings a smile to my face. Was 13 when this came out and it was one of my favorite songs (my Mom's as well God rest her soul). Thank you for a great C&T cover.
Imagine, Saturday morning, coffee, cozy at the table and then to hear this and in this way... Unmatchable and the sun shines in my heart. Have a nice weekend Rudi
I'm sure Daryl Dragon is smiling. Fantastic cover with a 4-piece and lead vocalist (Melissa, that was AWESOME!). Nice to see you again Crafty and Darren - oh, and between you Mario and Crafty you guys make the best female backup singers I could ever hope for (🤣). Just gotta get your guys some yacht hats and you're on your way to Yatch Rock classic song stardom! 🙂
A excellent recreation of a Captain and Tennille classic! Melissa's voice was spot on! The band was superb! Keep up the great work and keep the music coming. We love you! ❤
It doesn't get any better than this, Mel puts out an outstanding performance....as do the back up - boys on their instruments. It's a 10 from me. Love it!
Smashing performance. Great choice of song where Melissa excels. Superb arrangement of a classic I listened as teenager. A notch above said classic. SIL never disappoints
Mel, Mel, Mel. Who doesn't love a good Mel track? One of those (to me at least) songs that you sing along to without ever knowing who it's by or when it came out. Definitely has that 70's vibe to it though. Great interview with Crafty and Mel in the behind the scenes video. Is Mario going through a mid-life crisis? Shaving his goatee off has taken 10 years off him. Lucky Mrs Marino! Classic Darren mixing with the whole gang performing to the highest standard. Kudos from Matty x
Absolutely loved this. So close to the original. Written by Neil Sedaka. Fun fact, on the original C&T version, near the end, you can hear them singing "Sedaka is back!" 😉😉
Oh man - Sedaka is back and better yet, so is Mel with her knockout voice and great presence, along with the rest of the "A team" knocking out another perfect cover! Having just watched Crafty's "Behind the Sound" video about this song, it's so interesting to learn about your backgrounds and how you never know who you'll be performing with when it seems like you've been working together forever. The positive spirit and energy really comes through! Thank you all for sharing your talents with us!
You hadn't started the song yet and l was already singing it. When it started it sounded right the way I had previously imagined it but then l could feel it, la la la la. Also l want you all to know in a few days I'll be paying for my first month to learn how to play piano, soprano sax and drums as well as learning how to sing. I'll do my best for a year with no break. Loving music and listening to guys like you resulted in this:) Thanks and blessings
That was great, I remember seeing the Captain & Tennille sing that on TV when I was a kid ( ya , I’m old) I enjoyed this version just as much , great song choice , super awesome BG vocals guys & Man ,what a fabulous view the drummer had
I love this song!!! It was my first performance on stage over 20 years ago. But sing it live you guys are hot and Darren is a great producer 😊 big hugs from Germany ❤to you all guys
talk about singing an oldie but a goodie song - haven't heard this since I was about 8 but really well done as usual Daz and the rest of the team - really good to see Mel back too!
WATCH OUT HSCC - SingitLive is BACK with FANGS! Outstanding rendition and who’s ever idea was to do the Captain and Tennille -GENIUS!!! Love it .
HSCC are spot on as musos but their song choices (IMO) are not as en-point as they used to be. SIL is definitely on it.
@@Termiteboss their song choices have been bad the last few months. I totally agree. Too much R & B, that wasn't real big in the 70's and 80's, at least not in the US. I'd even like to hear a 60's tune like "You didn't have to be so Nice", by the Lovin Spoonful, great layering and overdubbing..etc
Spot on!
Somehow Darren, has always been the soul of it. No show off - just music, mixing the best production genuinely.
@@eenrrov You said it all 🎯🎯🎯
Melisa’s voice is so beautiful, articulate. Daren’s keys, Crafty, Bass Goose, all of it… Well done crew!
One of my favorite songs of the 1970s, brilliantly covered by Singit Live! Once again, I have to state how good it is to see and listen to Mel McCaig, her performance was absolutely perfect! Congrats to all the talented musicians for this great job! And, of course, kudos to Darren @producernerd Mullan for another extraordinaire production! Have a nice weekend, everyone!
Melisa good to hear you and see you again
Mel predictably excellent on lead vocals. The real treat is quality of the backing harmonies.
Welcome back Mel - takes me straight back to 1975 - simple song that has a big impact on my memory of growing up in the 70's - great job as always singitlive team 🙏👌👏🎤🎶
Correct 🎉🎉
1:46 Brings back good times in High School and Working for my Dad and Hanging Out with my friends❤. Love it
These weekly tracks have a nostalgic impact for sure@@donnakoster4685 👌🎤🎶
You done it again….
Come on what can’t you do. The vocals, the harmonies the perfect pitch of the instruments, the drums. You captured the moment and the enthusiasm shines through. Well done to everyone and thank you.👌
Another great rendition from Melissa and the band.
Hello band... sensational... Melissa show apart... beautiful voice with a refined technique, very feminine, charming and friendly. Perfect instruments and backing vocals. Excellent presentation
Love it. Love Melissa, one classy person indeed. Everyone spot on as usual, but I must say Mr Crafty is a one-person entertainment package. Thanks all! ❤
A special performance deserves a great mix. A great mix makes a special performance magical . That’s what happened here! GREAT job everyone! 🙌🏼
Melissa and Crafty are the dynamic duo of this musical video. It should have 10X the number of views.
Melissa kills it - SIL are the best.
Fantástica Melissa, fantásticos todos los músicos! Gracias por vuestro talento. Un saludo desde España.
Fantastic performance all round of one of my favourite 70s songs. Composer Neil Sedaka is criminally underrated despite having written some of the best loved songs from the 60s and 70s.
Better writer
So true. His songs are still played a lot on UK radio. Up there with the very best singer-songwriters. A very fine pianist too.
Another classic comes to life! This band simply gets better each week! Hands down!
I agree !!!
Yet another great song choice and Melissa nails it! Also, love seeing Crafty do his thing! As always, an A1 performance all round! 👏👏👏
Sing it Live you’ve done it again and I’m just blown away each week performance after performance!! Youve taken a 70’s classic and swung and knocked it out of the park.

Music is a universal language and love is the key..
Great choice! I've always thought this tune had some snap! Very well done here. Excellent work.
Sing it Live is so much like Countdown….you sit back during the week and hope your favourite song/s will get played on the weekend 😀. Awesome work everyone…..thanks
Jimmy from Chicago….I’m a new follower from the states….thank you so much !!!
….68 yrs. Old….Captain and Tennille….great memories….you guys smoke!!!😊😊😊❤
Brings back childhood memories of a bunch of us singing the chorus on the bus to school...another one hit out of the park by SIL. Bravo.
A great memory - Melissa - beautiful job. Darren & Team - brilliant as always
I have to play the lottery one of these days... I just knew Mel was going to perform. And perform she did! I grew up listening to Captain and Tennille... love their music and I love this too.

Great suggestion
@@davidford4305Much appreciated! It'd be an easy one for Sing it Live to pull off... all of those delicious harmonies. Take good care.
Who loves you, was a great song, but so overplayed in the US
@@michpackfanyeah... that happens pretty regularly with both the good and the not so good tunes... thank God for streaming!😂👍
Si pegate a la loto😊
The Captain & Tenille were my first live concert as a teenager. This song was being played everywhere.

One of my favourite little boppers from the Cap and Tennille. The sparse arrangement coupled with the monster SG sheds new light on an old favourite.
It's wonderful to hear something from my junior high times. Starting to miss your singing Mel. I actually have been watching some of your older performances. 😊
A great, fun song I have not heard since I was a kid! The vocals and harmonies were spot on, and Crafty nailed that solo! Nice job this week!!
Perfect in every aspect. Crafty's dance moves is always a pleasant extra!
Fanatic takes me back that song played on the radio all the time that was a wonderful tribute to The Captain & Tennille you made them proud
Smashed it again guys, great song written by Neil Sedaka takes me back to 75 when i was doing my paper round with a cassette player in my bag playing captain and tennile version.
I love Captain and Tennile. This is a great cover song
Gotta go with a 10 out of 10
She nailed it
Amazing backup vocals
That guitarist is fun to watch, good groove
Fantastic.. just like the captain and Tennille..
Excellent vocal performance. Beautiful woman!
What a great way to start a saturday morning!❤
What a spectacular version! The choir voices sound like synthesizers!!! Congratulations!!! 👏😎
Melissa is a goddess. It’s freezing tonight in Scotland but this brightened up my evening. It’s a great performance all round.
Another great job! Melissa singing and dancing brings a smile to my face every time.
This "Once a day" time travel is priceless to me 😎. For a few minutes I feel young again with no pains. You give me a priceless gift in life ❤
What fantastic groove WOW 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻🎷🎺🪘🥁🎸🎹🎸🎤😎🎸🎹🎼🎹🎸🎤🎸🎹🎼🎹🎸🎤🎷👍👍👍👍👍
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! Powerful and great vocals is what you can expect all the time. Have a great weekend!!
Thanks for covering the old stuff! Great job!!!
Darren ,Melissa and the Boy's....Great cut Well Done.
ah, the marvellous Melissa!
Brilliant, love MEL
This really brings a smile to my face. Was 13 when this came out and it was one of my favorite songs (my Mom's as well God rest her soul). Thank you for a great C&T cover.
The guitarist has the best stage presence than all the other ones..
missing the Captains hat though!
Crafty totally rocks every video he's in! 😊
Are you Crafty's mother? 🤭
I sure wish I was
Aside from a fantastic guitarist ... love his choice in hats... gotta have one ...
GR8 job gang! Especially Damien! Gr8 bassist!!!
Bloody Fantastic! Mel is my absolute favourite, classy voice and classy lady! Gold.
Thank you Melissa and SingitLive from a freezing cold English morning. You just made my weekend a whole lot better. Please keep 'em coming.
Well done Sing it Live 😊 Crafty culturing a new old man look with the cap . His Peacock style ggoooooonnnneeee……
Great production, Mel performs song perfectly - love it!
Great seeing and hearing Mel again. Love the sound of the bass and the groove. Great choice for a song.
Great to hear and see Melissa return, singing an old favourite of mine. Excellent stuff.
Melissa, you killed it!!
Imagine, Saturday morning, coffee, cozy at the table and then to hear this and in this way... Unmatchable and the sun shines in my heart.
Have a nice weekend Rudi
Wow if I didn’t know better I’d think I was listening to captain and Tennille. Awesome!
I'm sure Daryl Dragon is smiling. Fantastic cover with a 4-piece and lead vocalist (Melissa, that was AWESOME!). Nice to see you again Crafty and Darren - oh, and between you Mario and Crafty you guys make the best female backup singers I could ever hope for (🤣). Just gotta get your guys some yacht hats and you're on your way to Yatch Rock classic song stardom! 🙂
The Love Boat theme perhaps? 🤣
Brings back wonderful memories of my childhood. Love it!!!
really great version, the fidelity of the mix is excellent, lovely to hear Damien's bass come through and Darren's keyboard jazz at 2:34 is sweet as.
I have so many SingitLive songs on my playlist - whatever band set up on show always nails it. I'm a 66 year old English guy who loves your music !
That brings back memories!! Great job Melissa and all.
What an absolute perfect song for you guys - thank you (yet again!!) for starting my weekend off perfectly. Have a wonderful one yourselves! ♥
Great to see Melissa again for this very good performance! 🧡👏
This is how to go back in time with perfection to return to my memories of youth, thank you to you 😊
A excellent recreation of a Captain and Tennille classic! Melissa's voice was spot on! The band was superb! Keep up the great work and keep the music coming. We love you! ❤
It doesn't get any better than this, Mel puts out an outstanding performance....as do the back up - boys on their instruments. It's a 10 from me. Love it!
I forgot about this song. Great version 😊
Great cover and very enjoyable. 👍👍👏👏👏🎤🎸🎹🥁🎼🎵🎶
Melissa suits this jam, another great choice, awesome job Melissa!
I love the Captain & Tennille! Nicely done! Keep it up!!
Thanks Melissa, Darren and everyone for the great performance and the memories.
So exceptionally skilled all of you! ❤ 😊
Bloody Brilliant, perfect vocals from Melissa and Crafty rockin the flat cap 👊
Listening with a smile on my face the whole time😍😁
Unbelievable cover!!!! Great job🎉
maravilha anos 70 musica epoca da discoteque boas lembrancas parabens SINGIT LIVE
Brilliant. I love it when you guys cover my growing up era (70’s). Really love this. Stop!
Smashing performance. Great choice of song where Melissa excels.
Superb arrangement of a classic I listened as teenager.
A notch above said classic.
SIL never disappoints
love the bass in this...
The quality of your music/mixing is outstanding
Yeah Mel ❤ always a treat to see and hear you xx
Awesome team 🎉
Mel does a stunning job with this track. Does Crafty always have that "I'm about to do something crazy" look in his eye? x
Espectacular, brillante interpretación. Bravo 💯🤘🏽
This is the best version I have heard in a long time.
Mel, Mel, Mel. Who doesn't love a good Mel track? One of those (to me at least) songs that you sing along to without ever knowing who it's by or when it came out.

Grandioso, otro gran trabajo y gran interpretacion👏👏👏
Love will keep us together! Great job!
Melissa awesome singer. Her voice is simply perfect for every songs.
Absolutely loved this. So close to the original.
Written by Neil Sedaka.
