Having watched Adele grow in my UK homeland and seeing her impact on so many people, I am in awe of this cover. The songs that Foxes and Fossils cover are played with so much respect for the original artist BUT with an element of ownership, to the extent you could believe they were the original. Somethings in this life are meant to come together and deliver , it is so refreshing to see F&F now and in the past playing with a Love for Music and for that we must be humbly grateful.

@@StuartMStrickland I know the video, had even discovered it before the Foxes&Fossils release. Until then, I guess they called themselves "The Mustangs". A great singer. And yet the Foxes version is much better. I don't want to say that Sammie is the better singer. But as a double act, Sammie and Maggie are unbeatable. It's the same as with ABBA. In Europe, everyone knows that Benny Andersson on keyboards was the real musical genius behind ABBA. As a composer, he's on the same level as Ed Sheeran. At least. But ABBA's recordings live on the vocals of the two ladies (kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5_Jq5mbbctshKs). You could replace both of them with a much better singer like Christina Aguilera, and it wouldn't come close to the original. In the video above, Maggie has an equal importance to Sammie. Pay attention to how she sings the backing vocals. Priceless.
