    This is absolutely beautiful, stunning! I haven’t heard this song in absolute ages and hearing it again transported me back to an evening in 1970. Myself and four buddies, aged about 19 or 20, went to a Ginger Baker’s Air Force gig in London, we all lived about 40 miles east of London at that time. The band had played in Germany the night before and had had some issues with customs on their return to the UK which meant they arrived at the venue much later than scheduled. The show started almost 2 hours later than it should have and consequently ran on much later, causing us to miss the last train out of London that night to get home. We set off on foot trying to hitch a ride, the time was about 12.30am. After about 20 minutes a young guy in a car stopped and offered us a ride, he was going about 20 miles in our direction. We gratefully piled into his car, all 5 of us, and I remember clearly ‘Because’ was the track playing on the sound system in his car at the time. Thank you for bringing back an old memory for me and for your superb cover of the song. Many congratulations on your 100 million UA-cam views and I am sure there will be many more yet.

    Man. The original Beatles version was one of their most haunting and pensive in their catalog. I think F & F really took it up a notch with the girls' voices being even more haunting and eerie than John, Paul and George's! That was gorgeous. 🥲

    I have consumed a lot of music in my 3/4 of a century of living, which obviously included hearing this from the Beatles when it originally hit the airwaves just two weeks before I married my sweetheart. We're pushing 55 years together now. The combination of Lennon and McCartney’s brilliant composition and this impeccable rendition by the Foxes - yeah, and the Fossils did pretty good too - makes this cover a classic in its own right - in my humble opinion. I absolutely love everything about this! I can’t stop playing it over and over and over again…

    That deep dimension in this song is Chases part.
    Just hurls this tune into the otherworldly.
    These girls sound great together.
