It bugs me how much AMAZING music I've slept on for so long, and I make a point to try to listen to at least one new artist every day! This brilliant creature missed her time by 50-60 years because she's got REAL talent, and doesn't feel like the type to sell her soul for success in today's music industry. But I still know a lot of people who will appreciate this. Perhaps one day, if she's still making music, I'll see her playing at The Edison or the Cicada Lounge in Los Angeles. That would make me very happy

[@MichaelBurggraf-gm8vl]

That's really remarkable! I've just heard it on the radio in my car and wanted to know who that 1960ies soul singer Brenna Whitaker was of who I've never heard before. Oh man, what a surprise! Fabulous!

[@djones7571]

This is the best version I have heard because of the instrumentation. Her tone on this song is just amazing.

[@edkyle2568]

If this was 1960 she would be a star. Even in the 90s a great voice was appreciated, but now no longer a requirement for success. I hope she continues to put out music as she has a gift.

[@BrennaWhitaker]

thank you Ed... seriously...

[@tomsnapper9733]

the original song was released in 2008

[@Schmuly]

@@tomsnapper9733 it's the style not the lyrics

[@alexrennison8070]

Because you only took home the artist's voice when you bought records & listened to the radio, so the rest wasn't particularly important. No music videos, no social media, no psycho-Leftist noncery.

[@luistarin9281]

Okay boomer

[@merrilmedelinhandrawan7311]

Why isn't she popular?! She is the complete package, stunning and sure can sing too. Wish her a good luck!

[@antirussia8194]

+Merril Medelin Handrawan Just wait a moment - she's gonna be more than just popular. She is a top star material, no doubt.

[@ZachariahTheWitch]

+Merril Medelin Handrawan I've asked that very same question about several artists that I've met in the USA. Or just discovered online... I hope REAL artistry and performance (like this) starts making a comeback. Her band is fantastic too! She's classy and makes this look EASY! I'm inspired.

[@karenvanzant1621]

She probably will not sleep on the casting couch.

[@simongill4715]

Is being popular important?

[@cousinjake7986]

Cause she's too talented to ever sell her soul to the music industry, and she knows it.

[@GamelordAlec42]

Black and Gold is one of my favorite songs, and this cover is fantastic! love it!

[@TheNightflier70]

Perfect for a James Bond Movie

[@emmajury5475]

+The Night Flier absolutely

[@ethanol7452]

Can u please check my cover of this song?

[@hellfirebloodcrossproducti4394]

Oh yes. Perfect indeed!

[@annwrog]

She has an amazing voice!!

[@auscountryguy30]

I have listened to this about a million times I love it. Fave song ever!

[@GillesThavot]

What is the actual fuck what is this amazing voice what are these 50k views, she deserves 400 millions god. She is so good !!

[@ImaginationBlue]

+Gilles Thavot I so agree.

[@TJ-qq6qp]

Gilles Thavot me either agree

[@QQ_241]

I've just said almost the same thing in the comments above.

[@michaelc3732]

I have no words.......amazeballs is all I come up with..........

[@MsBonjour1977]

This chick!! Woooow at the vocals and the arrangement.

[@exelltori7328]

Absolutely stunning! Considering this different is a song from a completely different time period, she did an incredible job with the transition to the 60's!

[@manunt_]

Why isn't this more famous ? I mean just listen and look to her. Beautiful, strong voice ♥️

[@cnmrb151]

Saw this lady accidentally on Spotify when I was searching for Dionne Warwick's "A House is Not a Home". When I heard her version, I was blown away. Her version of Warwick's "Anyone Who Had a Heart" was amazing, too! I am generally a great fan of most Black artists and fan of Soul and R&B genre but I gotta say this lady got it, she has the spirit and soul to do this kind of genre. I am new fan!

[@jimmyblues59m76]

My God this lady is talented! 😊

[@aygeeawowede1337]

Still listening to thus masterpiece in 2023.

Mmm If the fish swam out of the ocean And grew legs and they started walking And the apes climbed down from the trees And grew tall and they started talking And the stars fell out of the sky And my tears rolled into the ocean And now I'm looking for a reason why You even set my world into motion 'Cause if you're not really here Then the stars they don't even matter Now I'm filled to the top with fear That it's all just a bunch of matter if you're not really there I don't want to be either I wanna get next to you Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold I look up into the night sky I see a thousand eyes staring back And all around these golden beacons I see nothing but black I feel a way of something beyond them I don't see what I could feel If vision is my only validation Then most of my life isn't real if you're not really here i dont wanna be either,i i wanna be next to you, black &gold i look if you're not really here Then the stars don't even matter Now I'm filled to the top with fear That it's all just a bunch of matter 'Cause if you're not really here I don't want to be either I wanna get next to you Black and gold, black and gold i look up into the night sky

[@lorenzoh2606]

[@bi1iruben]

Nice version - mix of big band style when Sam Sparro did this on Jools Holland show, and sassiness of original.

[@lectoromnivoro]

Wow, you took the song to another level. Masterpiece.

[@catanlorca]

Brenna divine angel of beauty and music. When you sing I live in the heavens and when you do not,I wait in the emptiness of time until you're angelic voice sings once more in chimes. You're majestic beauty Brenna,multiply it by infinity, and take that to the depths of forever and eternity, you will only still have barely have a glimpse of what you're magnificent,mesmerizing beauty truly looks like.

[@kim_luke4926]

Black and Gold

[@sammiea822]

She’s fantastic. Black&Gold is a just a very amazing song. At times the band was too fast for her. Only a few times she had to catch up other than that. Great.

[@DJ-lp6bh]

I heard this song for the first time last night. I bought the single and have been playing it constantly. Her voice is phenomenal.

[@DJ-ct6so]

For sure, her vocals are amazing. Great minds think alike.

[@beetzNgroovz]

Love it! Rarely a cover turns out that good. Bravo miss B!

[@officialblue9118]

It should be a written law for a person with a voice this good to be this underrated

[@fabriziorocci]

Randy Crawford with power boost! Great!

[@davidlamontwilson4059]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@Nicomarex]

[@sylaishataylor6824]

OMG!! This cover was AMAZING!!!

[@DebDemi69]

Just stumbled across this version and love it!

[@NeverendJp]

Brenna! I am happy in Nagoya,. I was dancing on the floor,

[@JazzizCafeLoveJazz]

Espectacular Brenna Whitaker (@Brennawhitaker) y la producción de David Foster (@officialdfoster) en este "Black and gold" con el que debutaba el año pasado esta cantante de Kansas. Ella dice que "se enamoro de la música oyendo a las grandes divas del Jazz y el Blues de otros tiempos, como Ruth Brown, Peggy Lee, Cab Calloway o Etta James, y que no sabe como termino conociendo tantas de sus letras, como si ellas la hubieran encontrado", pero ahora ha sido Foster el que la ha encontrado a ella y ha producido su álbum "Brenna Whitaker", lanzado en noviembre de 2015. #JazzVocals

This is cover too

[@RodrickColbert]

Wow, that was good!

[@Dobro1212]

Шикарная ❤

[@TheLifeEvents]

OMG, stumbled over this following the Sparrow version. At 1st I thought the Cheesy intro was leading to a rubbish version..Then... at 1:41 it took off. The Big Band sound, so well done and the three wind instrument trio at the back are so entertaining. Got to get the album, and this has to be played Vinyl on Lin / Mission proper stuff.

[@giuliobalbi6025]

There is an entire big band that play, in video there are 3 horns

[@huckleberryfriends9442]

Does anybody know similar songs? I love this style!

[@HeruVision-Thrive-Coaching]
