    I've been listening to various genre of music- pop, rock, country, contemporary, doo-wop, light jazz. I must say this group has the tightest harmony I have ever heard. If you agree give me a thumbs up. If not, listen to this song again or some of the other sounds by Foxes and Fossils.

      Too Much Heaven by the Bee Gees. Some excellent harmony. Several Crosby, Still Nash some crazy good harmony. But this group is right up there for sure. I can listen to music that I totally dislike when Foxes and Fossils cover it.

Well done. You have made an old man VERY happy and so thankful that you have done this.

    I love the Beach Boys and this is a great cover. It is extremely well done and just different enough so that it allows you to accept it almost as a different song. That is the key to great covers, especially of iconic songs performed by iconic performers.

    It's nice to see an intergenerational cover of a really great Beach Boys classic. This is the best cover band I've ever heard. They can do CS&N, Mamas and Papas, Beatles, and more. Brian Wilson has touched a lot of people with his music, but who is writing songs this melodically and harmonically beautiful nowadays ? Answer : Nobody It's wonderful that millions of viewers can enjoy and appreciate Foxes and Fossils, whose performance is a combination of rare talent, devotion, and love.

This song was one of my absolute favorites back then and even now. I had a 57 Chevy Bel Air in 67, loved that car and a certain young lady even more so this song sort of fit. Well the car is gone, she is gone but this song and me are still here. Thank You F&F.

    Dolly Parton said several times that Linda Ronstadt can sing ANTHING. It is true, her versatility matched her monumental talent; she even pulled off light opera perfectly. I've always thought we'd never see another like that, but I'm starting to believe that Maggie meets that standard. The more I watch and listen to her, the more awed and stupified I am by HER monumental talent. Damn, girl, you're way, way beyond good. You're Ronstadt good.

Not casting shade on a great singer like Lorrie. I just prefer Maggie's voice. I must have played F&F cover of Maggie singing Tom Petty's "American Girl" close to a hundred times so far.
      There are plenty of examples of female singers doing songs written for a male. Alyona Yarushina can knock out some great Led Zep, ACDC, Foreigner, etc. So can Samantha Fish. She can play the heck out of a guitar, sing and lead a three piece blues/rock band.

    I like to note that Don't Worry Baby was the B side of I Get Around. It wasn't played on the radio. It emerged as a classic out of it's pure beauty and emotional power. God bless Brian Wilson. Good job Foxes and Fossils.

When I saw the video on UA-cam, I thought, well here we go again, another attempt to ruin a great song. But after hearing the first tone, I fell back in my chair with a great smile on my face. This sounded amazing. The voices were perfect together, and I especially liked the little bit twangy sound of the girl who did the lead vocal. I am impressed and gonna check all the other stuff you've done, that for sure.

    The term "cover band" is sometimes sneered at by folks, which until recently included me, until I stumbled onto F & F. I've heard the studio version of all these songs and love them, grew up with many of them. But to see and hear these superb performers doing it live, in the moment, sometimes on a deck outside a bar with traffic passing by is to me the purest awesomeness of performing talent. They might not have written these songs but they OWN them. Bravo Foxes and Fossils.

Scott (on bass) called out from his side of the stage that he liked his name suggestion better. Tim repeated to the audience, "oh right, Foxes and Fossils". The girls looked at each other and giggled and agreed that that name worked, as a ripple of laughter rolled through the audience. A couple seconds later, Tim said "We have some ambitious songs for you, none more than this one. We're going to start right now. Ready?" And they launched into "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes". The whole conversation lasted maybe 30 seconds, and three and a half million people have seen the last five seconds of it.

What makes this song different is that it transcends time and fits as well today as it did then. This arrangement by Tim Purcell is a fine tribute to Brian Wilson's genius.
