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

[@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" !@

[@arthurmatthews9321]

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

[@robertburton7650]

Prince would be proud. Bravo!!!!

[@John-76]

😂

[@Jackm34]

This was a awful cover 😂

[@tyslink]

@@Jackm34 Yeah I wasn't all that impressed either.

[@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.

[@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!

[@CarolineRudge]

How have I only just discovered Foy's music!!!?

[@KellyMartin0902]

Same!

[@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

[@tc7362]

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

[@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!

[@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. -_-

[@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.

[@ftw44052]

This is one of the most amazing cover songs I have ever heard I have shared it with all my friends and everyone else I walk down the street with my speaker playing it for people you did it a thousand times better then Prince himself I tip my hat off to you brother music is life no matter what you're going through song I always speak to you

[@DuramaterOZ]

3:55 Holy Schnickies! I did not expect that. That boy can sang!

[@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.

[@samanthaesra4035]

Love this version. Foy is amazing. I am sure Prince would approve.

[@courtneybuse8019]

This guy has the most beautiful voice.. love anything he sings.

[@jamesbronze2]

Heart Felt "HeartSoul" voice. Rain Reigns down. P

[@cheryelmckinney2616]

Love his vocals he brings something really special to the song itself I have to say I’m very happy my son turn me on to other artist and country Music I only thought that my music listening was for black artists but now I listen to all different kind of music Foy Vance makes my day

[@patrickmoroney1660]

I say it all the time and will say it again I believe you have to belive what you are singing for it to hit people and prince did that and I belive he would have loved this cover

[@mdr1353]

Foy has a voice and soul many can’t come close to. He brings this classic something special - superb!

[@jamesbronze2]

Pure

[@jamesbronze2]

Nice. His is Pure.

[@glennbroad4439]

Absolutely brilliant version

[@duncanduffy755]

A true legend from my hometown of Bangor county down.

[@Lynnmaurice1]

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

[@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+

[@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.

[@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

[@serhiistreltsov4423]

Это что-то - не вероятное.... Я ждал этого, в конце композиции! Браво!!!?!

[@josh77711]

Yes, yes, and more yes. So many cover this and do “ok”. Foy owned it.

[@leeosborne2076]

Not many souls can do that song! he smashed it... one love

[@jimmysupafly1547]

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

[@christianhobbs4411]

Glad you finally found this artist. Very under rated

[@christianhobbs4411]

Check out. Paolo Nutini 'scream'

[@adambowering5914]

I can't watch this enough. I wouldn't change a thing, not a tone... not a pick of the string. Just the best version I've heard of this amazing song.

[@rogersadler7434]

i'm back again...this makes my soul feel good....

[@sherritipton]

Oh my Gosh!! I just discovered Foy Vance!!

[@roseamenta4377]

Bless you man! Best heartfelt performance ever! I really feel ya!💋💞💋💞Toronto love!! ROSE💋💞

[@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.

[@cillysnow]

I found Foy a few months ago and I love his style... He singing is so passionate.. I would love to meet him in person.

[@charmoss_q8701]

Wow!!! Love this version,,,its more upbeat,,,,like the second voice,,,,

[@Sammybizness]

Just goes to show you, you don't need a lot of fancy equipment to make something sound great. It's the soul that shines here.

[@stephanielee1262]

I saw this guy at Towersey festival in the summer and he was awesome. x

[@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

[@kyleortiz8038]

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

I never meant to cause you any sorrow I never meant to cause you any pain I only wanted one time to see you laughing I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you bathing in the purple rain I never wanted to be your weekend lover I only wanted to be some kind of friend Baby, I could never steal you from another It's such a shame our friendship had to end Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you underneath the purple rain Honey I know, I know, I know times are changing It's time we all reach out for something new That means you too You say you want a leader But you can't seem to make up your mind I think you better close it And let me guide you to the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain If you know what I'm singing about up here C'mon, raise your hand Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you, only want to see you In the purple rain
