Seven Bridges Road (Cover) - Steve Young by Foxes and Fossils

[@muzvid]

Wow! Amazing vocals!

Rarely do I find something better than the original .. but you guys did it. Simply put? AMAZING...

[@davebarlow6214]

You know plenty...

[@kevinkelley3657]

Sammie's is great, but they switch the chords around alot, and sometimes Chase is actually singing the highest part.

[@seanevanmusic]

I just stumbled across this group but, having recently parsed out the harmonies and performed this piece w a group, I really appreciate that the bass voice is faithful to Don Felder’s part(mostly) as it’s an ascending vocal line and departs from the rest of the voices. Most any cover I see, if they include a fifth voice to begin with, just follow the rest of voices in a descending direction.

Familial voices almost always blend the best. My brother and I have been singing together for more than 50 years and have had that same reaction.

[@77ukfan]

All these people are incredibly talented. The musicians are as good as any I have ever heard and I have heard a lot. The vocals are top tier, even better than some (So called) more recognized names. They have stellar harmonies, as good as any I have heard and better than most. If you think what they are doing is easy, get about 4 or 5 people together and see if you can generate a sound like these people put out, then you can appreciate just how good these folks really are. When you are getting over a million views on about every song you do, you have arrived to the upper echelon of entertainment. When you have talent like they do, you don't remain a secret very long, they should be opening for major artists in some of the big venues because I truly believe people would receive Foxes & Fossils in a big way.

As a music lover, I'm thankful that you guys are sharing your talents with the rest of us. I discovered my first F&F video last week entirely by accident. Since then, I have listened to every video, visited your website, and signed up for your mailing list. Keep doing what you do for as long as you can do it!
