Black Coffee (Cover) - Allison Young

[@JFrit67]

Just keep in mind….maybe, maybe 5% of the current top 40 “artists” you hear on the radio simply could sit down on the sofa with an instrument and belt it out like this. Allison rules.

[@garyroth2764]

When a true talent dusts off an old standard like this it makes surfing You Tube worth the time. Black Coffee and "I've Been a Long Time Leavin'" are two prime examples that rise to the top. What a fresh new old adventure you and Josh have embarked upon. One can see how much fun you're having doing this. Go for it kids!

[@OnewAll_]

Criminally underwatched and undersubscribed - wake up people! This here girl is the real deal. She sings me to sleep at night and makes my dreams sweeter than honey.

[@CHAS1422]

LoL...people need to be arrested for not watching. I agree. There is something incredibly powerful in her art and style

[@swinedance]

I didn't even know you existed until you did Crazy with Josh. Now I can't get enough of you. This is awesome.

[@littleshepherdfarm2128]

Same here. I am in love with this young lady's voice! I have a serious hearing deficit that causes me much pain at times so I listen to certain voice tones to overcome that and she is right on the money. Absolutely wonderful and soothing to listen to such a talent. I started (somehow...not sure how or why) listening to Reina Del Cid then came across Josh Turner and then she came up and I just happened to click on the video. I instantly loved it! This girl has it all.

[@rksnj6797]

That's how I found her!

[@popsplace3262]

Same here. My son turned me on to Josh... now I'm here!!!

[@robertdevincentis941]

Same with me I saw her on Josh,s channel she is amazing

[@Tacomadome24]

Same!

[@jlh2667]

Just caught you on Postmodern Jukebox. Loved you're PMJ cover of Mr. Blue Sky. You got what it takes for this song and Coffee! Awesome!

[@slavicpower7709]

I'm feelin' mighty lonesome Haven't slept a wink I walk the floor from nine to four In between I drink Black coffee Love's a hand-me-down brew I'll never know a Sunday In this weekday room I'm talkin to the shadow One o'clock till four And Lord, how slow the moments go And all I do is pour Black coffee Since the blues caught my eye I'm hangin' out on Monday My Sunday dreams to dry Now man was born to go a lovin' But was a woman born to weep and fret And stay at home and tend her oven And down her past regrets In coffee and cigarettes I'm moonin' all the mornin' Moanin' all the night And in between it's nicotine And not much heart to fight Black coffee Feelin' low as the ground It's drivin' me crazy This thinkin' 'bout my baby Might maybe come around Come around

[@littleshepherdfarm2128]

I absolutely love your voice, girl!!! If only there were more videos and songs of yours to watch and listen to! You've got it all, young lady and I hope you make it as big as you wanna get to be!

[@equalsql7508]

Absolutely!

[@Beanie17.2]

I gotta say there's not many people who I can listen to and look at all day but you are.... Incredible talent, this is one of the rare occasions when the cover is better than the original! I discovered you during lock down when my daughter was born and doing the early morning feeds, sitting there in my rocking chair with her asleep on my shoulder watching the sun come up on the porch listening to you. Best days of my life.

[@markwierzbicki6888]

Oh man, you absolutely CRUSHED this cover! Such an awesome talent being able to sound so well just singing with a guitar.

[@JohnLumpp]

Allison’s voice is so pure and rich. She’s very remarkable and super special!

[@brokenbiker220]

Incredibly soulful blues, this kind of talent is rare.

[@rkgaston123]

I just found you today! What a voice! - guitar! - Uke! - the look! ... I’m hooked :-)

[@freddiekd60]

Such a classy young lady with a one in a million voice!

[@jeffreyjets]

Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Your voice, your style and everything about you is amazing. So happy you are doing more with PMJ and Josh Turner. You make this world a more fun and enjoyable.

[@isaacbooe9928]

It's good to see 1950s in 2020s. Such a beautiful cover a 1948 song. I used to listen to that song every morning until I found your cover. So now I listen to this in most mornings.

[@fredneecher1746]

I keep coming back to listen to this. This is crazy good. Allison has such class.

[@samms449]

Amazing, beautiful voice, and a classy beautiful woman, keep uploading please. Will watch every video

[@FrankSkornia]

I loved the satisfied "hmmph" at the end. Keep making great music!

[@wizardnetwork]

Your Talent is Incredible.. all the little voice inflections, and vibrato etc... you do them with such precision... and your Vocal range just blows me away at times.. just don't know how you can reach some of those low notes.. Sigh!!! Never get tired of your voice and ability!!! Never stop Please!!!!

[@rjdi197523]

I would say that I prefer your version in 25-50% of your covers more than the original. You are gifted. Thank you

[@WickedMakee]

Just amazing...the look...the attitude....the music....and that remarkable voice....I don’t know how Josh gets lucky enough to know all these wonderful folk....but he has turned me on to more new artists than anyone since the early 70’s....and Allison has been breakin’ my heart since Crazy with Josh....

[@IntrepidYouTuber]

The last 3 seconds, that Hmmm! Awesome!..... listening again some months later, enjoyed it even more, picking up on so many nuances!! 😁

[@viewguy51]

I've been following this incredible young talent for several years now. She's a joy in entertainment.

[@paulhall170]

I've only ever heard k. d. lang's reading of this, but Allison, yours is exquisite!

[@lebarosky]

I hope you have an inkling of how good you are. This is solid blues.

[@lebarosky]

You are class all the way in every way. Keep doing your thing.

[@harigeorgeson5885]

A terrific vocal performance with plenty of atmosphere to boot. I think you really felt this one. Can’t wait for the next one.

[@lucasdronzek611]

You have such a wonderful voice!! I hope you keep recording!

[@stevek.9041]

I ran out of cream this morning, now I'm drinking black coffee and listening to this talented woman. Life is good. 🙂

[@NoahPacheco]

Wow. Your voice is like sitting beside a warm fire in the dark, skimming the newspaper, listening to the crackling tunes on the radio. I'm home. La vie en rose, Can't Help Falling in Love, Ain't No Sunshine instantly come to mind. Can't wait for more.

[@alandouglas8044]

A great version of a classic song.

[@chuckewe]

Just realized I’ve been listening to Allison Young for 90 minutes now! What an amazing repertoire. Uplifting and soooo enjoyable.

[@mikedickison5003]

90 minutes is a lot if you listen to 30-40 songs. But if it's just one song, you might want to seek some help ;)

[@USMCCGAGNG]

Makes it look natural and easy. ☕❤

[@kotkurt9082]

Didn't know this song. Don't even wanna know the original. This is more than enough.

[@fennarios]

Dont be stupid go and listen to ella

[@giovannirolla8954]

Peggy Lee's version is very good too.

[@jrfashion29]

Or listen to the original singer Sarah Vaughan

[@fennarios]

@@jrfashion29 what is an 'original' singer when someone else wrote the song?

[@jrfashion29]

@@fennarios I don't believe she wrote it but, she was the first person to originally sing and perform the song.

[@donsimonds5186]

Thank you Alison, that was done really well, but then again, you do everything really well. Love what you do and do what you love, that's Allison. That's why we love Allison.

[@williamsmith4709]

When I listen to your voice, the words, silky, smooth and rich come to mind.

[@eeengineer8851]

Every so often I have to hear this performance.... Its amazing.... :)

[@TheAyeAye1]

Loved the original, and you did a damn fine version of it.

[@jasonclinkenbeard1718]

Perfect. Just perfect. Thank you. I really dig your facial expressions while you play. You are it. Please post more. Do you play gigs? Or just youtube?

[@charlesknight3204]

Young lady .., You take me back to 1964 when I was 10 years old. While everyone else was listening to Elvis, Ricky Nelson and the Beatles, I was listening to Julie London, Peggy Lee and the Kingston Trio. Keep on keeping on!!! You keep singing; I’ll keep listening!!!!! Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas, USA. 🤠🐩👍🖖

[@dangermain486]

I'm sitting here after listening to this song and all I can think to say is "WOW"... I agree, that you have a one in a million voice..I'll bet you can sing anything from this Jazz, to Rock, to Blues and back again.. with Josh behind you, you can take the right song to a million selling hit..!

[@staceywickett8460]

I listen to this just about every day.

[@pmculp]

You are fabulous I love the way you bring back the glamour of times gone bye👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@knockitofff]

Beautiful, you're an old soul.....you've been around before.

[@DavidLHolzer]

Phenomenal. Your voice and passion for the songs you sing is contagious. Thank you. Much continued success!

[@EldenSmith]

That was great. Beautifully done.

[@MrRJDB1969]

Good job. I uploaded an old Freddie Cole recording of it a few months back. I had never heard the song before and didn't know it was known by many people. Glad to hear another rendition of it.

[@musket-hc1fc]

Incredibly beautiful! A perfect rendition!

[@harveyjohnny1967]

Love this, what a great voice and presence.

[@garmin1488]

Wow! Wow! Wow! I don't know what else to say. Please post more, I could listen to you all day.

[@qedsteve]

I just caught Allison on PMJ's "Mr Blue Sky" Loved her vocal treatment of the original. That being said, I loves me some blues! Her working "Black Coffee" is a respectful treatment of what to me is "sacred music." Have to find where Allison is LIVE and just GO!

[@kelvinm560]

Why haven't you got a record deal? Your voice is so strong and clear.

[@saladler]

Love your passion Allison, and you sure have the talent to match. Enjoy your music so much. Happy New Year. Wish you all the best. ❤️

[@sarawawa8984]

woohoo! More beautiful music from you! You have such an incredibly beautiful, full, powerful voice

[@rkgaston123]

Very cool! And it’s not just because I drink my coffee black 😏. Allison, I love to listen to your numerous styles - all of which you perform with integrity and grace. 😘 Happy holidays!

[@alanestes5013]

That was too cool . I had to loop it for a while . Thank you .

[@podcastbunker]

Truly beautiful and so much talent.

Just discovered you last night and couldn't stop watching. You are special. What a beautiful voice.

[@matthewmartin95]

Your voice is beautiful. Love your song choices.

[@stevesobot5372]

Black Coffee Feelin' low as the ground... Love the lyrics, love the rhythm, love the guitar-playing, adore the timing and voice. Well done.

[@jimwillis8747]

Allison creates her own musical universe and from time to time she lets us in to enjoy it and I so appreciate it you go girl

[@stevesobot5372]

Very enjoyable. Fantastic timing... and such expressive vocals. Thank you!

[@reeceausten5505]

My God what a beautiful soul what beautiful voice, a voice that can heal a blackened soul, that can spawn hope, thank you very much please keep it up :).

[@kevininman2013]

I love your style and your voice! Great song!!

[@DanPurdy1]

I was glad for this to pop up. I so much love your music. What a beautiful voice. The lighting is perfect for this song. You are there, but not well lite.

[@huskerite2]

Allison, your voice and style are so easy to listen to and enjoy. You are a talented person with a cute way about you, almost funny without meaning to be. Guard your heart so you avoid someone hurting you and messing with that bright person that you seem to be. I'm a fan.

[@aragornelessar7399]

Beautiful. Every video is so perfect.

[@robertcranson6494]

Just found you. Wow! What a voice! What talent! You're a treasure! Where have you been in my life?? Now I have to watch all your videos...

[@Theoriginalopaman]

I hear those rhythm and blues! Bravo Allison!

[@timothyball3144]

Absolute classic poster just above her head. Well done song also.

[@RaraR1183]

As always LOVE your voice! Thanks ....also love your style.

[@Surfzap63]

Truly outstanding!

[@redrock1963]

You have a wonder voice Alison. Great feel through the vocal.

[@squeebbb]

I love your voice and your retro classic style. Not enough of it in the world today, at least not where I am! Beautiful song selection and you do a hell of a job singing. Hope someone picks you up for music in Nashville if they havent already.

[@Bmarker299]

A super star! Pure, authentic artistry and so lovely

[@simplicity6564]

THAT, was exactly what your voice was made to sing. Watching your facial expressions react to the words made this feel like you were not just singing, but living this song. Like to hear more in this genre.

[@stevenburton6785]

Wonderful rendition pure class.

[@DHW256]

Allison, I haven't heard everything you've sung, but this is the best I've heard so far. Wonderful voice, poise.

[@tombotelevision2616]

ALL IS ON...ALLISON YOUNG.....A PALACE OF SOUND! HOO KAT!!!!!!!!!!

[@deborahchapman222]

Well done!! The girl can sang the blues. Praise Jesus!

[@censusgary]

Wow, Allison can do the blues! Cool!

[@jackduffy6620]

Could listen to this angel all day.... beautiful

[@rocketpost1]

I just love your voice Allison and you are definitely a star in the making if that's what you want to be. You can sing in any style whether it be pop, country, blues or jazz. You have a definite presence when you are singing and have charisma running through you like Blackpool rock. You may not know what that means but it is indeed a compliment. Someone with your talent gives me hope for the future and this is from an old geezer who will turn 70 this year.

[@The333Wanderer]

Allison, do you have any idea how talented you are? OMG.

[@jeffflank2193]

Thanks Allison. Just Excellent ❤️🤠

[@jimprescott5216]

Great job. I love your voice.

[@jennysk2057]

Love the vintage photograph, (behind her), of the man in the Le Corbusier LC2 chair, being blown away by the sound coming out of the Maxell speaker. Nice song, BTW.

Ok, watched several of your vids, this was the one that made me hit "subscribe"! Beautiful, thank you!

Glad l found you.... All the best in all you do What a great voice!!!

[@cattaraugustonawanda4426]

Love your retro thing !

[@isaacbooe9928]

So much better than the original version from the 50s. And with the raw audio just needing a high pass filter, a Compressor and some cuts for the background frequency and you got yourself a record. Your voice is amazing.

[@larryeddings3185]

Beautifully done!

[@koyote2e511]

Hi Alison thanks for the chance to hear your voice do another song justice, and for showing me that there is nothing wrong with my Fender acoustic’s sound, that it is obviously my playing that sucks😄👍 a prosperous new year to you all

[@dougmac444]

Quite possibly the perfect vibrato 😊 Cheers from Vancouver 🇨🇦

[@evgeddyvangerven6108]

Your style, your face, hair, dress, your voice it pulls one in too watch...then you play a song ive never heard but love and all with that great voice and personality that shines through. Sublime! Why are you not signed with a contract? Thank you for sharing this video.
