For some perspective on this rendition. This cover is of the Linda Ronstadt version which is essentially a duet with Nicholette Larson (Sammy is doing Nicholette). These are two generational talents and Maggie and Sammy nail it cold. This happens because the Foxes are all generational talents in their own rite. On time, in tune, perfect blend backup and lead vocals are the super power of F+F. Nicholette died too young and Linda can no longer sing. Thank god we have these guys to help keep this great music alive.

From the flawless vocal blending, to the high production values, to the great performance by the band, this is easily the best cover version I've heard since the Linda Ronstadt version, over 40 years ago.

Harmonizing anywhere in music is easy to hear, not sure what you mean that it is not easy... If you need help, just sight read the music notes, it's all there..

@@frandanco6289 I'm musically trained and have sang professionally. It's easy for people who have the gift of musical ability, but not for others. Many people simply don't have the "ear" for harmonies, and many also can't read music. EX: I have a friend I used to sing in the choir with. He had a great tenor voice and could sing the lead very well, but could not sing harmony no matter how hard he tried.

@@MegaSkills9 The Twisted Taco audience has taken a lot of bashing on the comments section of these videos, and perhaps deservedly so. However I have never read a comment from someone who claims to have been there, which after so many years I think is unusual knowing the acclaim F&F has received on You Tube. I would be interested to hear their comments, not so much to defend themselves but only for us F&F fans to get the perspective from an audience member who was there.

Quite possibly my favorite of all the F&F covers. Everyone is just perfect, the girls are at their most adorable, the song is just perfect for Maggie, and Sammie's descant harmonies soar. If I could listen to just one F&F cover, this would probably be it. Linda Ronstadt's version is in a higher key. I like this key better, because it puts the melody in a firm alto range, which suits both the song and Maggie's voice.

This is so much better than singing contest winners like Carrie Underwood and her insincere crappy tributes to a real talent like Linda Ronstadt. These artists are real musicians and deserve to be far more famous than they are! Playing gigs like this is how you learn your craft, not appearing on a cheesy tv contest. Oh yeah, and no voice auto tune here either.

The original was by Evie Sands, and it was the Hollies who made it a classic in 1966. Talk about three part harmonies and musicianship. Linda Ronstadt was really a latecomer in 1980.
