Lets just appreciate how he kept that fingerstyle going for 5 minutes
Yeah, I was thinking that looks very grueling. And I don't even play the guitar.
Marvin Husbands playing this fast is almost impossible never mind Singing at the same time
Probably because that’s the only finger style he knows. You have to admit that his guitar playing was suspiciously lacking in variety here.
or watch his cover of break up with you girlfriend in the live lounge.
As a massive Amy Winehouse fan I never listen to covers of her songs because people try to imitate her voice but most of them fail, and it always feels like emotion is missing.....But this guy made it his own in a way, and you can feel the emotion just oozing from him. Amazing cover!
Teodora tom grennan did a cover of one of her songs, it’s fantastic you should check it out x
You should check the cover that yungblud did, it’s actually a mashup but it’s pretty good 🖤🥰
You mean you haven't heard Karise Eden's version? Close your eyes and you'd think it's Amy reincarnated.
@@christopherwong1895 I listened to that version before, and it's really good
his cover of break up with your girlfriend is my favourite live lounge cover ever, still never fails to amaze ❤️
Same I listen to that more than I should probably😂 But this one is a banger too💕
That's a killer arrangement. Amy would have been proud of this rendition of Back To Black. Good job lads! x
he should sing this as the new james bond song tbh
Agreed. The bond theme should be sang by a British Artist not American. Such an iconic British film.
If this ain't on the next series of Peaky Blinders whilst they storm in and kick the shit out of everyone I'll be gutted
When you arrive at your destination and the song on the radio is only half way through but you can't get out of the car because you just have to hear the rest of the song.......that's how good this was/is. Simply incredible
I don't know who this man is but I'm glad I ran into this cover
Of course you didn't heard about Sam because he is so underrated, even though he won the BRIT Critics Choice award. Check out his debut album Hypersonic Missiles, it's one of the most incredible albums you will listen to.
Sam is such an amazing singer..why tf he's underrated !!!!!
He is also a nice man, very sweet. His band mates are down to earth.
This man is a once in 10 generations talent and that must be appreciated. Thanks Sam
this is the best cover i have ever heard.
We lost Amy far to soon, we never got to hear the best of her, this is a great cover, but best for me has got to be Arctic Monkeys doing love machine, that is just bonkers good, with a little bit of fun thrown in.
Omg . Just when I thought he couldn’t get any fucking better he goes and does this . I loved the original and I never thought anyone would cover this iconic song but here is Sam! What a bloke ! 🖤
He did it so good! As an Amy fan I think this is one of the best covers of hers!
Heard this on the radio in my van earlier, love hearing music there because the speakers proper surround you, it was such an immersive performance, you could feel the emotion of it all. Great cover.
Chris Stone I was driving too, hit the volume and got lost, just mesmerised by the whole package 👌
I don't know what makes me more proud, that Sam's a Geordie or dude playing sax has got the old school brown ale top on.
Ya covers toppa Sam kid 🤜🤛
The instruments here were an absolute dream they were so calculated and perfectly timed with his beautiful voice
I’m sorry but this is unreal .. his talent is just amazing he has absolutely smash this cover I cannot stop listening! And that Sax ... absolute perfection
Can we just appreciate how absolutely fecking amazing Sam Fender is! His voice is beautiful! There has been nobody and I mean nobody that has caught my attention in the last 20 years like he has! The perfect finishing touch to the band is the saxophone! It couldn’t get anymore perfect for me and that’s saying something! Sheer brilliance!
what on earth did we do to deserve such beauty.
They're using this on BBC's "The Traitors". Great cover.
Wow!!! The voice, the guitar, the sax......that was pure quality!!!
Genuinely one of the people who makes us proud to be where we're from
No one wants to take on an Amy Winehouse song through fear of not doing it justice and letting her down. He took it on and absolutely smashed it. You feel every word and it’s haunting... this is absolute perfection and most importantly, does Amy proud.
There is so much Jeff Buckley in his voice... beautifully haunting
just scrolling comments to see if anyone else noticed. deffo jeff buckley vibes.
Definitely. You can really here it on this song- the quiet, lower notes with softer tones... then shifting to that big brassy vibrato. It's beautiful and heart wrenching. Bless this lads heart, eh?
Just love EVERYTHING about his take on this song, the guitar, the voice, the instrumental.... 👌...wow...
Plain and simply one of the best Live Lounges ever, loved it 😊🎼🎸🎤🎧 Thankyou .
I love how Sam always keeps the sax real and alive with his music. The young lads in the book of music talent 😎✌🏻
I love Amy winehouse and I love this version too... makes me cry every time I hear this song.... RIP Amy ❤️❤️💞
Oh look there is another cover he's made that sounds just as good as the original.
unreal. I got goosebumps. Sam and the band kill it every single time, but this is one for the books. wow well done lads x
Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same
Sam Fender, this cover blew my mind, beyond amazing. I keep coming back to it time and time again. Thank you, true talent!
They did amazing. And they deserve much more recognition
Im very protective of Amy, i dont really like people playing around trying to cover her songs, because well its hard to ever do them justice. But THIS RIGHT HERE???!! Stop it! this is fucking incredible.
Sam Fender kills it every time! So much more than a the Springsteen wannabe that I thought he was when he first blew up.
This could be awfully uninformed of me, but judging purely based off of this cover, this guy would be great pulling off the next James Bond soundtrack.
If they ever release an album with just the covers like this and Break up with your Girlfriend I'd instantly buy this beauty. All those covers have such a unique style. I love them ♥
this was everything i needed. love the song, love amy winehouse, love sam fender. voice perfectly suits the song and i really really love this cover
this is so good!!! it has tamino feels (or just a slight middle eastern twist and i love it)
I love when artist don't change the lyrics when they cover songs, and keep the genders the same
Why? If you’re the person covering you can switch the lyrics to match the message or your side that you’re delivering.
@@IamRocque because guys will often change the lyrics so they don't sound 'gay' or whatever. Listen to the Jolene cover by the white stripes. Awesome
One of the most amazing covers of anyone ever. So much talent, so much energy that we seek in a musician performer.
This is my favourite Live Lounge cover of 2020 so far. The last few moments between 3:51 and 5:02 were SUBLIME. Made me cry tears of joy at the last note. Thank You, Thank You, Sam! =_)
I come back to this video so many times, it’s just *cheff kiss*
there is something about sam's voice which is so nostalgic and just makes me FEEL so much
Unreal version 👌 this is type of tune you'd happily listen to over and over again! Gives me the bumps every time I hear it 🦄
damn... is his voice made for this song or was this song made for his voice
CringeFest listen to his songs, you’ll see that he sings this way too :) x
never let this go I didn’t say I didn’t like him, he can sing, I just replied to the comment above that he did kinda copy the style of back to black in this.
never let this go Sorry I have aspergers and didn’t explain myself properly.
Been a while since I've heard this... wow, wow, wow never fails to send shivers down the spine. Beautiful arrangement.
His voice gives me goosebumps can’t wait to see him live on tour
I've heard this song covered so so many I couldn't stomach it anymore.. but Sam's version is just magical. I could hear this arrangement over and over. Kudos to the band too!
Better than most chart music at the moment. This should be released wow what a cover Amy Winehouse would have loved this
One of the best Amy covers! Loved it.
I love how he sounds in the build up.
You can clearly see how much effort the band is putting into playing this cover and the outcome is so incredibly great! 😄
Absolutely superb heard it for the first time this morning on radio 1....its mesmerising....
I used to think nobody could or should even touch a Winehouse track and then Sam came along! I absolutely adore this version, it's just beautiful ❤
This is a genuine all-time best Live Lounge cover. Hauntingly beautiful 😍
I've listened to this so many times already lol
To hold this level of emotion and to still have to glance down constantly to check the words is amazing. We all know this song because it’s brilliant but not all of us know it word for word. He’s amazing
he is phenomenal. Can’t wait to see him for the third time at TRNSMT this July
cant believe this performance exists omg such a good one im in love
Wow 🤩 he’s good. It’s a beautiful version in her memory. It’s the BEST I’ve heard from a male singing BTB. Thanks Sam 👌🏼
how is this the FIRST time I saw this??!! and now watching on repeat... one of my fave songs, by my beautiful Amy & Sam did a great job!!
[Verse 1]
He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet with his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry, get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread my troubled track
My odds are stacked, I'll go back to black
[Chorus]
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to
I go back to us
[Verse 2]
I loved you much, it's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life, is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rollin' up the walls inside
[Chorus]
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to
[Bridge]
Black, black, black, black
Black, black, black
I go back to
I go back to
[Chorus]
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her and I go back to black
i’m crying this is incredible
Best cover ever. SPOTIFY pa' cuando?
I still can't get over this, it is madly haunting and just beautiful. He somehow makes every cover he does sound like it's his own song 🖤
His song this is, mastered it. Absolutely smashed it.
Beautiful kid. He's amazing. Wishing him the best. 💜
Brilliant cover, he made it his own! Love Sam!
Love, sax and magic right here!!!
this is really great, he did a beautiful job.
it has been posted on the day of my birthday, what a gift !
this gem is on Spotify! His other live lounge TUNES are not tho
Love this so much actually gives me goosebumps!!! Genius
This man is on another level, he can play anything, genius
Love the way it build ups it has tension perfect for this song
The fact that he covered this on BBC means a lot, because it’s this very same BBC that featured Amy on British tv for the very first time.
He just keeps on improving and make my ears cry for more each time I hear him !!
Mds, que voz!! 😍😍❤️
oh my god i’m obsessed
he reminds me of live jeff buckley recordings. those low notes are beautiful.
This is OUTSTANDING
Wasn’t expecting much, never heard of this guy before…shocked to find a new favorite cover. This is better than the original
Reminds me of live recordings of Jeff Buckley. Amazing to listen to such musicality and talent.
This is one of my favorite songs ever, boy did good!
It feels kinda weird when a boy sings it but he really hits the emotion. We can see here that this song is still relevant and that Amy's lyrics are unbelievable. Well done👌
Saw him at Isle of Wight festival last year and was the best act of the weekend, this is just brilliant 🙌🏻
Can you imagine being able to sing like Sam Fender
BBC Live Lounge just continues to amaze me. Such amazing content.
i dont know him but this is so great
Sam is always this great and that's why a lot of people don't understand why he's so underrated. Listen to his debut album Hypersonic Missiles, you will be glad.
This lad is crazy talented listen to him everyday what a cover👏🏻❤️

You're welcome
Why doesn’t live lounge have a Spotify account ugh 😫
Agreed! Like a Version needs one too!
They should have a Spotify account there is no reason they couldn’t because they release the songs on cd and iTunes so why not Spotify
Gotta get that UA-cam coin
Usually they get illegally added so you might be able to find it
