[@robertburton7650]

Prince would be proud. Bravo!!!!

[@John-76]

😂

[@Bill-v7m6b]

This was a awful cover 😂

[@tyslink]

@@Bill-v7m6b Yeah I wasn't all that impressed either.

[@theresailer365]

Purple rain covers usually lack that.. thing, that feel behind the lyrics only special people understand. This one has that feel as it should. It is the first cover since the original I can stomach. AMAZING!! I can only listen to music that takes me on an emotion ride with the artists, and this is one hell of a ride.

[@alettangati3360]

Have you seen Kwaye’s cover (Mahogany sessions) though ?

[@allisnotwhatitseems.]

Ever heard Hothouse Flowers version ?

[@DmtPuddleme]

this might be THE best version. -_-

[@spiritfeather1]

I grew up in the 70's have many bands I love! Especially with 7 older brothers and a mom and dad ( all gone) I am not sure how I found you! I'm so glad I did.. Savex my life. I also enjoy sharing! Everyone, is like " my god" !@

[@berniemines7516]

One of my Dad's favorite songs, wish he was here to hear this version, he would've dug it,, I miss you Dad, think about you everyday

[@DmitryStein]

My father passed away a week ago. He was not listen to this song. I not sure he ever heard about the Prince and all his songs. . But to me somehow this song appeared in my mind and becomes kinda dedication to my father. God bless you Bernie!

[@tammyrogne1471]

A country version of 'Purple Rain' and boy it chills me to the bone!!

[@RAYS3121]

Purple Rain is a country song.

[@Fallingslowly09]

Foy Vance isn't country. He's Irish folk.

[@alexandross6498]

Foy Vance belongs in the part of those artists that gonna make you love a cover more than the original version.. Perfectly performed, with emotion, the secret ingredient behind success. Keep it up Foy !!

[@CoolHandLukeDuke]

Ironically, Prince belongs to that very same club.

[@bnice12]

Check out Martin Sexton's cover. You'll dig that one too. Cheers.

[@paulx873]

Stevie Wonder also

[@JohnWick-hb3ft]

I totally agree...i just heard the song 'Make it rain'.. talented to the core.

[@jamesbronze2]

@@JohnWick-hb3ft "Make it Rain" is profound+

[@daniellima2973]

My 3 year old boy loves this song since he was 2. He can now sing most of it. When he was fussing I would play it and dance with him. That would calm him down. Now he asks for it by name.

[@arthurmatthews9321]

The lad playing the snare and base drum is the star of this . He is feeling every note.

[@robertparsons8928]

Foy and prince wouldve gotten along so well. Two pure musicians in every sense of the word. Foy is probably the most underrated artist in the world

[@tc7362]

Never to take away from the great late Prince " rip".. but Foy justified it with soul.

[@John-dy6bl]

This is my favorite prince song what a joy to see foy cover this !!

[@luigicannizzo2669]

" Realy Emotion and Commotion Version Song ". .. Great Sounds and Interplay Filling on Thats Musician Player. .. So' Good ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍✌👌👏👋

[@gigi7984]

Prince would be proud of your rendition, not many can do this song and create the feeling it gives when sung by Prince himself!

[@silviadelafuente6793]

I'm considering this version for my wedding. I love how intimate and tender this guys sing 🥰

[@taotaotoad]

Um. Have you listened to the lyrics? 😂 for a wedding? Best wishes

[@michaeldargan]

What a choice!!

[@TanakaDaRocka]

@@taotaotoad I don't think she gonna raise her hand.

[@travdaddy777]

It’s meant to be a breakup song

[@jaderhuff81]

Weddings are the first stage of breaking up

[@dakotarayparkermusic]

Literally best version of Purple Rain that I have EVER heard.

[@craigcarmean4807]

Dakota Ray Parker listen to Martin Sexton version

[@Sam-ub2vu]

To each their own but, no. It's great but there are better versions that are truer to the song's soul. And I love Foy Vance.

[@Mmoose74]

I listen to this guys music daily! His live albums are incredible... Make it rain and guiding light are amazing songs.

[@lenniwillett8254]

Adam Lackey Why did you keep this guy a secret?? I guess 1 shouldn’t judge a book by the cover!

[@kileybarton467]

Feel For Me is the one that just gets to me.

[@lexie9466]

Oh Foy..I guess this will probably be on repeat for eternity here..love & light to you.. ♥🍀

[@traceybushman7932]

Damn.... I have listened to this cover 50 times. And for some reason... bam! It's awesome and tasteful..fantastic.. Hell yeah brother.

[@jimmysupafly1547]

It's been a while since someone had a voice that gave me goosebumps. This guy is legit.

[@christianhobbs4411]

From the 3:55 to the 4:22 mark, I have no idea what that kind of singing is called but thank you Foy Vance, boy was that Heartfelt, thank you sir! Wow that feeling! Heart

[@DennisGruetter]

That's called channeling the man himself

[@oneofakindmind]

[@cheryelmckinney2616]

for fear of dislikes I can't say that I like this cover more than the original, but to do this work of art justice I can say that this cover is as good as the original BECAUSE THIS SONG IS AMAZING AND SO IS THIS ARTIST!!! OH MY GOD THIS SONG IS AMAZING

[@Lynnmaurice1]

November 25,2019 listen to you. I sooo approve. Nothing like Prince. But a great acoustic version. Peace ✌️ on. God Bless

[@Jbborcherding]

I've never wanted to hear a cover of this song, because who could do it justice? Well, I only want to hear your cover. You my friend, knocked this one out of the stadium. RIP Prince
