My father passed away a week ago. He was not listen to this song. I not sure he ever heard about the Prince and all his songs. . But to me somehow this song appeared in my mind and becomes kinda dedication to my father. God bless you Bernie!
I grew up in the 70's have many bands I love! Especially with 7 older brothers and a mom and dad ( all gone) I am not sure how I found you! I'm so glad I did.. Savex my life. I also enjoy sharing! Everyone, is like " my god" !@
Foy Vance belongs in the part of those artists that gonna make you love a cover more than the original version.. Perfectly performed, with emotion, the secret ingredient behind success. Keep it up Foy !!
My 3 year old boy loves this song since he was 2. He can now sing most of it. When he was fussing I would play it and dance with him. That would calm him down. Now he asks for it by name.
From the 3:55 to the 4:22 mark, I have no idea what that kind of singing is called but thank you Foy Vance, boy was that Heartfelt, thank you sir! Wow that feeling! Heart
I've never wanted to hear a cover of this song, because who could do it justice? Well, I only want to hear your cover. You my friend, knocked this one out of the stadium. RIP Prince
Purple rain covers usually lack that.. thing, that feel behind the lyrics only special people understand. This one has that feel as it should. It is the first cover since the original I can stomach. AMAZING!! I can only listen to music that takes me on an emotion ride with the artists, and this is one hell of a ride.
Love his vocals he brings something really special to the song itself I have to say I’m very happy my son turn me on to other artist and country Music I only thought that my music listening was for black artists but now I listen to all different kind of music Foy Vance makes my day
la première fois que j'ai entendu cette reprise, je me suis assise et je me suis dit: oh la vache!!!! quelle pepite, il l'a fait!!!! Prince de où tu es tu dois adore!!!! je ne m'en lasse pas!!!🪶💫✨🌟💖
Wow wow wow!!! Words cannot explain how Awesomely Amazing this is spine tinglingly deep. So it's best to say nothing (.......................................................... ... ... ......................)😎
Thank you a lot brothers. Everyday I’m trying to laugh more. How more il try how more I do, the sametime anger, tears, loneliness and happiness are joining in. This song helped me fighting some demons inside. Thanks again for this song brothers! Oneness, light and love is hard when the surround terrain and past are black this song is so much better then the original I feel you from head to toe’s
This is one of the most amazing cover songs I have ever heard I have shared it with all my friends and everyone else I walk down the street with my speaker playing it for people you did it a thousand times better then Prince himself I tip my hat off to you brother music is life no matter what you're going through song I always speak to you
GOOSEBUMPS! What feel lads! Just brilliant! Thank you for sharing. Just fabulous. I absolutely love your phrasing on this here rendition! I do believe, Prince is giving y'all a standing ovation! 😉 💜 🍀 🎶 💜 🍀 🎶 💜 🍀
for fear of dislikes I can't say that I like this cover more than the original, but to do this work of art justice I can say that this cover is as good as the original BECAUSE THIS SONG IS AMAZING AND SO IS THIS ARTIST!!! OH MY GOD THIS SONG IS AMAZING
Heard him sing rhis live at castlefield in Manchester opening for James bay. Have been a fan ever since and followed Foy around when I have been able to. An amazing voice and an exceptionally nice guy with a big talent 😀
dude! thank you for that rendition, i now have my favorite go to rendition of Purple Rain ... with Chris Cornell being my all time favorite vocalist i always wished him to do that song, but since he can't now, i couldnt have found a better one .. thank you
I wanted Chris Cornell to sing all my favorite songs because he is my favorite vocalist of all time. I’m left with this masterpiece but it still leaves me wondering
Whether you think it's better than the original or not, this is good. I'll admit a lot of people try and do alright, but he killed it. Hats off to you Foy.
I say it all the time and will say it again I believe you have to belive what you are singing for it to hit people and prince did that and I belive he would have loved this cover
Your soul is amazing man! I am very low level in salsa but once i had a very good partner and he made me look amazing,i was spining, and up and down and everywhere, my teacher was shocked from our performance. The same now i singed with you and your soul draged out of me notes i havent got before.
Get the latest and greatest in emerging music, like Foy Vance, from our Buzzing playlist: spoti.fi/2xGvqUh
He killed it period!!

😊
Back here all the time over and over again. Amazing version. ❤
@@nuggers23 thanks for watching our videos
Prince would be proud. Bravo!!!!
😂
This was a awful cover 😂
@@Bill-v7m6b Yeah I wasn't all that impressed either.
The lad playing the snare and base drum is the star of this . He is feeling every note.
Why is his name never mentioned? He is as good and important as Foy.. I see and hear him a lot together making this music simply wonderful! Lasse W.
One of my Dad's favorite songs, wish he was here to hear this version, he would've dug it,, I miss you Dad, think about you everyday
My father passed away a week ago. He was not listen to this song. I not sure he ever heard about the Prince and all his songs. . But to me somehow this song appeared in my mind and becomes kinda dedication to my father. God bless you Bernie!
It's that kinda song I saw Prince at Sydney Opera house sing it with only a piano - brought me to tears ❤ RIP Prince
I grew up in the 70's have many bands I love! Especially with 7 older brothers and a mom and dad ( all gone)
I am not sure how I found you! I'm so glad I did..
Savex my life. I also enjoy sharing! Everyone, is like " my god" !@
Prince would be proud of your rendition, not many can do this song and create the feeling it gives when sung by Prince himself!
This is my favorite prince song what a joy to see foy cover this !!
Foy Vance belongs in the part of those artists that gonna make you love a cover more than the original version.. Perfectly performed, with emotion, the secret ingredient behind success. Keep it up Foy !!
Ironically, Prince belongs to that very same club.
Check out Martin Sexton's cover. You'll dig that one too. Cheers.
Stevie Wonder also
I totally agree...i just heard the song 'Make it rain'.. talented to the core.
@@JohnWick-hb3ft "Make it Rain" is profound+
My 3 year old boy loves this song since he was 2. He can now sing most of it. When he was fussing I would play it and dance with him. That would calm him down. Now he asks for it by name.
A country version of 'Purple Rain' and boy it chills me to the bone!!
Purple Rain is a country song.
Foy Vance isn't country. He's Irish folk.
Foy and prince wouldve gotten along so well. Two pure musicians in every sense of the word. Foy is probably the most underrated artist in the world
I'm considering this version for my wedding. I love how intimate and tender this guys sing 🥰
Um. Have you listened to the lyrics? 😂 for a wedding? Best wishes
What a choice!!
@@taotaotoad I don't think she gonna raise her hand.
It’s meant to be a breakup song
Weddings are the first stage of breaking up
" Realy Emotion and Commotion Version Song ". .. Great Sounds and Interplay Filling on Thats Musician Player. .. So' Good ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍✌👌👏👋
From the 3:55 to the 4:22 mark, I have no idea what that kind of singing is called but thank you Foy Vance, boy was that Heartfelt, thank you sir! Wow that feeling! Heart
That's called channeling the man himself
I feel it too dawg
Never to take away from the great late Prince " rip".. but Foy justified it with soul.
Literally best version of Purple Rain that I have EVER heard.
Dakota Ray Parker listen to Martin Sexton version
To each their own but, no. It's great but there are better versions that are truer to the song's soul. And I love Foy Vance.
My favorite take on this iconic song!
I listen to this guys music daily! His live albums are incredible... Make it rain and guiding light are amazing songs.
Adam Lackey Why did you keep this guy a secret?? I guess 1 shouldn’t judge a book by the cover!
Feel For Me is the one that just gets to me.
Absolutely brilliant version
Foy has a voice and soul many can’t come close to. He brings this classic something special - superb!
Pure
Nice. His is Pure.
It's been a while since someone had a voice that gave me goosebumps. This guy is legit.
Glad you finally found this artist. Very under rated
Check out. Paolo Nutini 'scream'
I've never wanted to hear a cover of this song, because who could do it justice? Well, I only want to hear your cover. You my friend, knocked this one out of the stadium.
RIP Prince
Love love love that version !!

Have you seen Kwaye’s cover (Mahogany sessions) though ?
Ever heard Hothouse Flowers version ?
this might be THE best version. -_-
I agree ❤❤❤❤❤
How have I only just discovered Foy's music!!!?
Same!
Just goes to show you, you don't need a lot of fancy equipment to make something sound great. It's the soul that shines here.
Oh Foy..I guess this will probably be on repeat for eternity here..love & light to you.. ♥🍀
Love this version. Foy is amazing. I am sure Prince would approve.
Damn.... I have listened to this cover 50 times. And for some reason... bam!
It's awesome and tasteful..fantastic..
Hell yeah brother.
Love his vocals he brings something really special to the song itself I have to
say I’m very happy my son turn me on to other artist and country
Music I only thought that my music listening was for black artists but now I listen to all different kind of music Foy Vance makes my day
