Like the original by tracy Chapman this is a timles classic with the addition of Kinas magic. Haven't heard for a long time but now i know what i was missing.
When I hear this, I hear someone simply singing Fast Car. When I hear Tracy Chapman sing Fast Car, I hear the pain of the woman living the lyrics of this song.
I had this song on repeat for probably the last hour... it got me into this wistful and introspective mood, which I really needed right now. Thank-you for such a lovely rendition. You seem like such a beautiful person, Kina... I enjoyed your friends' work as well, you all perform with so much passion :)
This song has been my listen for so many of my needy times. When my parents got divorced, when my dad moved out, when he got re-married. When my head of full of a boy, when that boy became my boyfriend, when I broke up with him. When I studied, when I failed my exams. When my mom lost her job, when my mom started her first day at her new workplace. Kina, your voice makes me so relieved, so happy. I just wanted you to know that you're truly talented and that I adore you so much.
Listening to this song brings me memories that I've been fighting to keep them buried from 2 years now... But sometimes, my mind and my heart makes me lose control of this shield that I put on to block and forget all the time that we spent together, making me listen to this song once in a while. I can't really believe that we lost each other on our path. And damn, you won't know but sometimes I get my self wondering how much I miss that girl that I used to call by my princess and the Moon of my Life, and how terrible and different we became after all that story...
I'm so glad to have grown up in the '70's with this music. The best decade of music EVER! All these songs take me back. So lucky, us '70's chicks and guys. You guys make the songs rock!!! Thank you for your beautiful music!
You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Any place is better Starting from zero got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me myself I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just 'cross the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs And finally see what it means to be living See my old man's got a problem He live with the bottle that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his My mama went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said somebody's got to take care of him So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it fast enough so we can fly away? We gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way So remember when we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car We go cruising, entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job And I work in a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs So remember when we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me find it I got no plans I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So remember when we were driving driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away? You gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way
Holy shit. His voice is actually really good. He's very talented and so is she. I'm so tired of listening to all these people who sound like Ariana grande (she does not have a good voice) unlike Ariana grande and her high ass pitched voice these two are incredible!

Really nice cover and your voices sound quite sweet and complimentary, however singing as a duet kinda removes the somber heartbreaking and lonely tone of Tracy Chapman's original. This version sounds like a beautifully composed and relaxing groove while the original was a lament and regretful look at how one loses their dreams and hopes all while losing their problems in being hopeful.
+Nagnullat Totally true! I love this version way better than the original. But Tracy´s version does have a charm of its own which fits in perfectly to what´s being sang. You made me reflect...
+Gerlan Cidade +Nagnullat I think that it brings a slightly different character to the song - rather than one person struggling alone, two wanting to make it work together but still failing
mmm ok some people hate comments like this so i hope i dont annoy you too much: Im a 17 year old from Ireland and i covered this song, maybe you could check it out if you got a chance...thanks!
James Harper Thanks man, it was ages since I shot that cover...it's really bad in hindsight haha I would definitely recommend watching some of my newer videos instead...but everyone starts somewhere. Thanks for watching it anyway I appreciate it
+Carmel Telio Whose watching this in 2000000000000000000000000172727277272727727272772727727272771723871924687125481? What's that good music is timeless you say?
No way... everyone who coves it speeds it up too much and tries to make their voice the star when the lyrics and Tracy's voice were just made for each other.
Cherish G I know what you mean. It's sort of 90's and pretentious sounding. She has a great voice, just doesn't seem to suit this song as well as his. Still, they play it beautifully and she has a great voice. It just seems very...... Lisa Loeb-y.
favorite cover of any song I've ever heard on youtube. I've heard it a million times already since I found it... and I only found it a couple days ago. beautiful voices and talent.
Wow!! Not much impresses me these days but both vocalist were absolutely amazing. The female has such an innocence about her voice, as did Stevie Nicks when she was young as well. The male vocalist NAILED IT!!!! Omg you sound so much like Tracy singing that song and can’t wait to hear your Music. I will definitely be listening to more your videos because you all are indeed a #PerfectHarmony 👍🏽
Can I just point out that the guy in the background with the tambourine and shaker is AWESOME!! He is killing it
SO TRUE! The guy has been overlooked for far too long!
He has been overlooked for wayyyy to long!
Daniel was awesome with that tambourine!
yeah!!
Is that you?
2020, and this version still my favorite ✊🏻❤️
Like the original by tracy Chapman this is a timles classic with the addition of Kinas magic. Haven't heard for a long time but now i know what i was missing.
2021 and same here...
2022 SAME HERE
2023*
Her voice is angelic. It’s so beautiful. This is a great collaboration
Kina's sense of harmonics, dynamics and metric is beyond belief. A true prodigy.
This is the best version of this song that I have heard so far! Beautiful!
Why do I love this cover so much?
When I hear this, I hear someone simply singing Fast Car. When I hear Tracy Chapman sing Fast Car, I hear the pain of the woman living the lyrics of this song.
her voice is so soft its magnificent
Kina's harmonizing is everything!
The best version of Fast Car. Beautiful guitar playing and harmony and gorgeous voices.
I always know it's just gonna make me cry, but I sit through it and bawl like a baby anyhow. Damn it Tracy Chapman! It's too beautiful.
Nobody's said this yet so well done to the tambourine guy!
I had this song on repeat for probably the last hour... it got me into this wistful and introspective mood, which I really needed right now. Thank-you for such a lovely rendition. You seem like such a beautiful person, Kina... I enjoyed your friends' work as well, you all perform with so much passion :)
OMG You're here!
The world is so connected
supershigi .k
Still my favorite cover of this song. Thank you!!
Beautiful song, two beautiful voices.
Shout out to the guy on the maracas, you da real MVP.

I'M IN LOVE WITH HER VOICE.....
Grew up listening to Tracy on road trips with my dad. I like this too!! Very talented...

Beautiful cover of one of my favorite songs!
Kina, you are a STAR!
Listen to her version of
Falling in love
A star in a car
2019 and still watching this. 🧡
Kina & Boyce Avenue: Very nice cover. Good job you guys; amazing guitar work & harmonies.
Ugh this song always made me feel so calm and peaceful when I was younger... I can appreciate how real and authentic their voices sound now
This song has been my listen for so many of my needy times.
When my parents got divorced, when my dad moved out, when he got re-married. When my head of full of a boy, when that boy became my boyfriend, when I broke up with him. When I studied, when I failed my exams. When my mom lost her job, when my mom started her first day at her new workplace.
Kina, your voice makes me so relieved, so happy.
I just wanted you to know that you're truly talented and that I adore you so much.
she is wonderful
5yrs later still fresh
9 years later and its still just as amazing
daayaamm the way Daniel was shakin that Maraca!!!
absolutely smooth, solid, and flowing......and yes, the tambourine guy pulled it all together....
harmonies are so good during the chorus
Dudes voice sounds much like Tracy's voice.. anybody else noticed?
Yes amazing.
Boyce Avenue... He's always fricken amazing.
He's a clone
Yeah I did
I always find myself back at this song. Great Job.
GOOSEBUMPS!!!! You're AMAZING!!!!
I pretty much watch this every day. It's just that good :)
Wow. Goosebumps. Brings back memories
Listening to this song brings me memories that I've been fighting to keep them buried from 2 years now... But sometimes, my mind and my heart makes me lose control of this shield that I put on to block and forget all the time that we spent together, making me listen to this song once in a while.

love this!
Kina is a God.
Goddess :P
Great cover. I love Alejandro's raspy voice for this song and Kina's delicate tone. And of course Daniel in the back keeping things lit!
I'm so glad to have grown up in the '70's with this music. The best decade of music EVER! All these songs take me back. So lucky, us '70's chicks and guys. You guys make the songs rock!!! Thank you for your beautiful music!
This song was released in 1988
oh my god this cover is the most beautiful I've ever seen !! I loved too ù.ù #Best
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
Won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living
See my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
His body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
So remember when we were driving driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs
So remember when we were driving driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me find it
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving
So remember when we were driving driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so you can fly away?
You gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
is it bad that I like this more than the original? ;)
No.
Nope. I have a few amazing covers I absolutely love.
nope but since your white it makes u racist joooooking😊😀😉

@@YeOldeGeezers No

Absolutely wonderful.
I got a fast bike

Holy shit. His voice is actually really good. He's very talented and so is she. I'm so tired of listening to all these people who sound like Ariana grande (she does not have a good voice) unlike Ariana grande and her high ass pitched voice these two are incredible!
This cover is so fucking good
I was lucky enough to see Kina when she was touring this summer, and her voice is just so magical!
gorgeous harmonies
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself I got nothing to prove
[Verse 2]

+Gerlan Cidade +Nagnullat I think that it brings a slightly different character to the song - rather than one person struggling alone, two wanting to make it work together but still failing
Really good, but i don't get the same chill as tracy chapman
She hit you with raw emotion its a shame she wasn't recognized as a better artist when she was writing this music
kinna grannis...phenomenal singer
I truely like the crisp clean sound you dont hear that much anymore makes me glad i still have my old kenwood speakers still
mmm ok some people hate comments like this so i hope i dont annoy you too much:
Im a 17 year old from Ireland and i covered this song, maybe you could check it out if you got a chance...thanks!
Ill check back in 1 year. You'll be famous
Rob, looks like you're doing good for yourself! :)
James Harper Thanks man, it was ages since I shot that cover...it's really bad in hindsight haha I would definitely recommend watching some of my newer videos instead...but everyone starts somewhere. Thanks for watching it anyway I appreciate it
RobertAllenLive aye, I have mate, still great. Keep it up, you have real potential.
omg you are fucking good!!
Hope you all voted today. #Tambourineguyforsenate

I am!
+Carmel Telio me !!! i love it ;-)
Me to, love it !! SO Relax :)
+Carmel Telio Whose watching this in 2000000000000000000000000172727277272727727272772727727272771723871924687125481? What's that good music is timeless you say?
+MrECHOfox yes
One of the best songs ever. Beautiful job.
Sweet! sing well together. Always did love this song. Awesome. I agree Kina please do let her go with him. That would so rock!! Hugs to all of you!
That tambourine though
I like this version more than the original.. Personally
too
+Mrs. Unmarried They put the same sentiment, talent and feeling to this song as Tracy puts on all her songs, that's why it sounds this good.
Why are there less than 1million like on this? #DeafEpidemic💔👂🏻🐱
No way... everyone who coves it speeds it up too much and tries to make their voice the star when the lyrics and Tracy's voice were just made for each other.
me too!
This guy looks like Gerard Butler!
This shows how much talent is actually out there, his voice is brilliant
My favourite female youtuber sings my favourite song of all times, must've returned 100 times by now still doesn't fail to leave me speechless.
254 people didnt have a fast car.
The guy was a pleasant surprise, he sounded great. The girl was average at best
D;
that was exactly what I was thinking. That guy's voice matches this track great.
Was in his key.
The girl has an ok shower voice, but the guy is much better.
Damn
ONE OF THE BEST DUET EVER.. glad to see and listen to them ...
Amazing!!!! Boyce Avenue rocks another one!!!!!
Don't like the girls voice on this song
Cherish G you just have to go to his profile its boyce avenue
Cherish G Had to thumbs down all these comments.
Cherish G Yo she is very good and her voice is very similar to Tracy Chapman's voice
derick button She sounds nothing like her
Cherish G I know what you mean. It's sort of 90's and pretentious sounding. She has a great voice, just doesn't seem to suit this song as well as his. Still, they play it beautifully and she has a great voice. It just seems very...... Lisa Loeb-y.
So Dope!
I love the guys voice its jst so... .wow, the girl is really talented too
Your voices compliment each other so WELL!
Awesome. Love both of their voices.
awessome voice.. !! both of them..!!
OMG in love with this song!
beautifully played very soulful
i cannot get enough of this cover. one of the best combi ever!! i lost count on the number of times i am listening to this!
Been following Kina for over 7 years , don't know why she has not hit IT BIG!
Down here in Australia, she's been popping up on the radio for the past 3 years. She's definitely making a name for herself, slowly but surely.
I love this song you guy are a great singers
This song gets stuck on repeat when i listen to it 🤣🤣 absolutely aced this cover even the percussion is pure 🔥
Amazing voices+Wonderful artist=SUPERB COVER...
i found that after listening to them both, I enjoyed them equally divine, and pleasing to the ears.
The harmony is soooooo amazing
favorite cover of any song I've ever heard on youtube. I've heard it a million times already since I found it... and I only found it a couple days ago. beautiful voices and talent.
2018. So amazing. I was listening song from so far
WOW!!! amazing guys! pure amazing..
I always come back to this song every year.
both amazing
beautiful...the both of you!!
A beautiful cover of a beautiful song. That guitar riff will always be evocative of a very time & emotion.
Wow!! Not much impresses me these days but both vocalist were absolutely amazing.
The female has such an innocence about her voice, as did Stevie Nicks when she was young as well.
The male vocalist NAILED IT!!!! Omg you sound so much like Tracy singing that song and can’t wait to hear your Music.
I will definitely be listening to more your videos because you all are indeed a #PerfectHarmony 👍🏽
Pure class I love it
Beautiful, simple and melancholy like the original, like the song American pie, I'm a deer in the headlights, when ever these songs come on the radio.
