Love Will Keep Us Together | Live Band performance (Captain and Tennille) | Sing It Live

[@michaelagro9190]

WATCH OUT HSCC - SingitLive is BACK with FANGS! Outstanding rendition and who’s ever idea was to do the Captain and Tennille -GENIUS!!! Love it .

[@Termiteboss]

HSCC are spot on as musos but their song choices (IMO) are not as en-point as they used to be. SIL is definitely on it.

[@michpackfan]

​@@Termiteboss their song choices have been bad the last few months. I totally agree. Too much R & B, that wasn't real big in the 70's and 80's, at least not in the US. I'd even like to hear a 60's tune like "You didn't have to be so Nice", by the Lovin Spoonful, great layering and overdubbing..etc

[@rhapsodyrr7876]

Spot on!

[@eenrrov]

Somehow Darren, has always been the soul of it. No show off - just music, mixing the best production genuinely.

[@jaygerson]

@@eenrrov You said it all 🎯🎯🎯

[@SCWgreg]

Melisa’s voice is so beautiful, articulate. Daren’s keys, Crafty, Bass Goose, all of it… Well done crew!

[@fernandonoda]

One of my favorite songs of the 1970s, brilliantly covered by Singit Live! Once again, I have to state how good it is to see and listen to Mel McCaig, her performance was absolutely perfect! Congrats to all the talented musicians for this great job! And, of course, kudos to Darren @producernerd Mullan for another extraordinaire production! Have a nice weekend, everyone!

[@rikrushton6826]

Welcome back Mel - takes me straight back to 1975 - simple song that has a big impact on my memory of growing up in the 70's - great job as always singitlive team 🙏👌👏🎤🎶

[@michpackfan]

Correct 🎉🎉

[@donnakoster4685]

1:46 Brings back good times in High School and Working for my Dad and Hanging Out with my friends❤. Love it

[@rikrushton6826]

These weekly tracks have a nostalgic impact for sure@@donnakoster4685 👌🎤🎶

[@heathersherlock]

Love it. Love Melissa, one classy person indeed. Everyone spot on as usual, but I must say Mr Crafty is a one-person entertainment package. Thanks all! ❤

[@tube396]

Another great rendition from Melissa and the band.

[@tomwooten4893]

Melisa good to hear you and see you again

[@robertbrown-gv6pn]

You done it again…. Come on what can’t you do. The vocals, the harmonies the perfect pitch of the instruments, the drums. You captured the moment and the enthusiasm shines through. Well done to everyone and thank you.👌

[@frogpondproduction]

Yet another great song choice and Melissa nails it! Also, love seeing Crafty do his thing! As always, an A1 performance all round! 👏👏👏

[@Joaolucasmg]

Hello band... sensational... Melissa show apart... beautiful voice with a refined technique, very feminine, charming and friendly. Perfect instruments and backing vocals. Excellent presentation

[@duffwood3598]

A special performance deserves a great mix. A great mix makes a special performance magical . That’s what happened here! GREAT job everyone! 🙌🏼

[@randyneugent]

This was a very nice cover. I wish that you guys would do some songs from The Tubes. They have some really great songs as well from back in the good 'ol days !

[@markb7857]

Mel predictably excellent on lead vocals. The real treat is quality of the backing harmonies.

[@roberts3942]

Melissa and Crafty are the dynamic duo of this musical video. It should have 10X the number of views.

[@nutbush341]

Melissa kills it - SIL are the best.

[@clubfoote1960]

Great job! You all did such a fantastic job on this song, I felt like I was listening to Toni Tenille, 😃

[@neorich59]

Absolutely loved this. So close to the original. Written by Neil Sedaka. Fun fact, on the original C&T version, near the end, you can hear them singing "Sedaka is back!" 😉😉

[@Drfsr77422]

Another classic comes to life! This band simply gets better each week! Hands down!

[@randyneugent]

I agree !!!

[@discoinferno112]

Sing it Live you’ve done it again and I’m just blown away each week performance after performance!! Youve taken a 70’s classic and swung and knocked it out of the park. Loved the guitar solo creating something special with a new spin on it and making it your own. That was so much fun that while listening to it I became the captain on my own Yacht rock and sailed away right to 1975 all over again!!!

[@NikkiKosmiderHeuskes]

Yeah Mel ❤ always a treat to see and hear you xx Awesome team 🎉

[@MattyFitt73]

Mel does a stunning job with this track. Does Crafty always have that "I'm about to do something crazy" look in his eye? x

[@chisel83]

How can you not love Mel? Exceptional talent. I was hoping to catch her again at the feast last Sunday with Mark Anthony but alas not this year. Caught up with Mario again though 👍 Great work gang.

[@davidwinthrop7077]

Fantastic performance all round of one of my favourite 70s songs. Composer Neil Sedaka is criminally underrated despite having written some of the best loved songs from the 60s and 70s.

[@michpackfan]

Better writer

[@sarac.3259]

So true. His songs are still played a lot on UK radio. Up there with the very best singer-songwriters. A very fine pianist too.

[@chaschampion777]

I have to play the lottery one of these days... I just knew Mel was going to perform. And perform she did! I grew up listening to Captain and Tennille... love their music and I love this too. Lately, y'all are doing a lot more of the 70's classics...I'm still hoping to hear Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons "Who Loves You" soon. God bless from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 🙏

[@davidford4305]

Great suggestion

[@chaschampion777]

​@@davidford4305Much appreciated! It'd be an easy one for Sing it Live to pull off... all of those delicious harmonies. Take good care.

[@michpackfan]

Who loves you, was a great song, but so overplayed in the US

[@chaschampion777]

​@@michpackfanyeah... that happens pretty regularly with both the good and the not so good tunes... thank God for streaming!😂👍

[@daisycolon6845]

Si pegate a la loto😊

[@HectorMoran-i3t]

The guitarist has the best stage presence than all the other ones..

[@bufordmustang302]

missing the Captains hat though!

[@tonesv77]

Crafty totally rocks every video he's in! 😊

[@blueyonder1233]

Are you Crafty's mother? 🤭

[@sevenseems4917]

I sure wish I was

[@MarkLeberer]

Aside from a fantastic guitarist ... love his choice in hats... gotta have one ...

[@MattyFitt73]

Mel, Mel, Mel. Who doesn't love a good Mel track? One of those (to me at least) songs that you sing along to without ever knowing who it's by or when it came out. Definitely has that 70's vibe to it though. Great interview with Crafty and Mel in the behind the scenes video. Is Mario going through a mid-life crisis? Shaving his goatee off has taken 10 years off him. Lucky Mrs Marino! Classic Darren mixing with the whole gang performing to the highest standard. Kudos from Matty x

[@deanoh6414]

Toni Tennille would approve. ❤

[@michaelmacnamara1100]

A great memory - Melissa - beautiful job. Darren & Team - brilliant as always

[@illiamdeebe7579]

[@davechapman7735]

great job!!! the captain and his ten eels

[@ericcheney101]

The Captain & Tenille were my first live concert as a teenager. This song was being played everywhere. In the last couple of days I played it several times and listened to a couple of interviews with Toni. One of the very best songs of my youth. C&T would be impressed with how well you have performed it! Great, great production!

[@Prof_Jeff]

Saw Captain & Tennille with my parents in the late '70s. Also saw Neil Sedaka around 1978. Thus, I've heard both the original composer's (Sedaka) version and the most famous version of it (C&T) played live!

[@Redbuzzcut]

I'm sure Daryl Dragon is smiling. Fantastic cover with a 4-piece and lead vocalist (Melissa, that was AWESOME!). Nice to see you again Crafty and Darren - oh, and between you Mario and Crafty you guys make the best female backup singers I could ever hope for (🤣). Just gotta get your guys some yacht hats and you're on your way to Yatch Rock classic song stardom! 🙂

[@singitliveworld]

The Love Boat theme perhaps? 🤣

[@cremer007]

Well done Sing it Live 😊 Crafty culturing a new old man look with the cap . His Peacock style ggoooooonnnneeee……

Thank you Darren and that lovely lady, when you did Guilty and Carfty🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@kennysguitar7959]

I love this song,and this cover,too.

[@ianski11]

Brings back childhood memories of a bunch of us singing the chorus on the bus to school...another one hit out of the park by SIL. Bravo.

[@AndyTychon]

Sing it Live is so much like Countdown….you sit back during the week and hope your favourite song/s will get played on the weekend 😀. Awesome work everyone…..thanks

[@jamesmorrison7692]

A great, fun song I have not heard since I was a kid! The vocals and harmonies were spot on, and Crafty nailed that solo! Nice job this week!!

[@foxlake6750]

I was in a hotel bar in Russia on a business trip years ago and there was a husband and wife team playing this every night…we called the Comrade and Tennille.

[@guitarzleo]

Perfect in every aspect. Crafty's dance moves is always a pleasant extra!

[@richardwelch4457]

Another great job! Melissa singing and dancing brings a smile to my face every time.

[@waldohpepper5884]

One of my favourite little boppers from the Cap and Tennille. The sparse arrangement coupled with the monster SG sheds new light on an old favourite.

[@TarheelTad64]

Fanatic takes me back that song played on the radio all the time that was a wonderful tribute to The Captain & Tennille you made them proud

[@kalea808AB]

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! Powerful and great vocals is what you can expect all the time. Have a great weekend!!

[@JamesJohnson-xw9jn]

Was wondering the other day why we hadn't seen Mel for a while and here she is, looking and sounding as good as ever. Like Andy, always performs with an air of class and makes things seem simple and this is no exception. Great choice of song and musicians as usual by Darren, so well done to all, only thing with Crafty being involved is I now have to go and check out his channel for "Behind the Scene" content though

[@bucksboy20]

Thank you Melissa and SingitLive from a freezing cold English morning. You just made my weekend a whole lot better. Please keep 'em coming.

[@dquarks]

It's wonderful to hear something from my junior high times. Starting to miss your singing Mel. I actually have been watching some of your older performances. 😊

[@eggy1962]

Smashed it again guys, great song written by Neil Sedaka takes me back to 75 when i was doing my paper round with a cassette player in my bag playing captain and tennile version.

[@DAVIDGREGORYKERR]

This is the best version I have heard in a long time.

[@Xpyburnt_ndz]

GR8 job gang! Especially Damien! Gr8 bassist!!!

[@luciorivero3873]

You hadn't started the song yet and l was already singing it. When it started it sounded right the way I had previously imagined it but then l could feel it, la la la la. Also l want you all to know in a few days I'll be paying for my first month to learn how to play piano, soprano sax and drums as well as learning how to sing. I'll do my best for a year with no break. Loving music and listening to guys like you resulted in this:) Thanks and blessings

[@iainmacleod4007]

Melissa is a goddess. It’s freezing tonight in Scotland but this brightened up my evening. It’s a great performance all round.

[@randyinman7897]

Great choice, love this song!

[@murraychadwick9362]

This "Once a day" time travel is priceless to me 😎. For a few minutes I feel young again with no pains. You give me a priceless gift in life ❤

[@thereal_diewebers]

I love this song!!! It was my first performance on stage over 20 years ago. But sing it live you guys are hot and Darren is a great producer 😊 big hugs from Germany ❤to you all guys

[@debbachebachir]

Excellent vocal performance. Beautiful woman!

[@jenneljustus]

I love Captain and Tennile. This is a great cover song

[@hairyhondaman]

Great cover and very enjoyable. 👍👍👏👏👏🎤🎸🎹🥁🎼🎵🎶

[@ajitpatel6832]

Good Grief! Quite remarkable. Thank you very much 👍🏽

[@w9ran]

Oh man - Sedaka is back and better yet, so is Mel with her knockout voice and great presence, along with the rest of the "A team" knocking out another perfect cover! Having just watched Crafty's "Behind the Sound" video about this song, it's so interesting to learn about your backgrounds and how you never know who you'll be performing with when it seems like you've been working together forever. The positive spirit and energy really comes through! Thank you all for sharing your talents with us!

[@philhatfield2282]

I love the Captain & Tennille! Nicely done! Keep it up!!

[@DontTreadOnMe-777]

Gotta go with a 10 out of 10 She nailed it Amazing backup vocals That guitarist is fun to watch, good groove

[@alexanderlyon]

Great choice! I've always thought this tune had some snap! Very well done here. Excellent work.

[@mariogonzalez4778]

Está Canción es muy bonita la han grabado varios, hasta Neil Sedaca la grabo. Me gustan estás nuevas versiones con equipo de sonido más avanzado. Excelente cover, excelente canción. Congrats. Singit live

[@mauricewiersma2485]

Great vibe, Melissa you're not only having a great voice but also an awesome stage presence, beautiful and you own the stage 👌😎

[@davidandrews2972]

Great to hear and see Melissa return, singing an old favourite of mine. Excellent stuff.

[@vagabond7883]

I don't care what others will say, but I reckon Damien played lead bass on this song! You may be in the background Damien, but your bass leads this song! Go Damien!

[@danielwilson1468]

A excellent recreation of a Captain and Tennille classic! Melissa's voice was spot on! The band was superb! Keep up the great work and keep the music coming. We love you! ❤
