This is why I love the internet! An Ed Sheeran rabbit hole led me to discover this talented brother. So many talented people in this world that mainstream media neglects.
When the sins of my father Weigh down in my soul And the pain of my mother Will not let me go Well I know there can come fire from the sky To refine the purest of kings And even though I know this fire brings me pain Even so Just the same Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain The seed needs the water Before it grows out of the ground But it just keeps on getting hard And the hunger more profound Well I know there can come tears from the eye But they may as well be in vain Even though I know these tears will bring me pain Even so Just the same Oh Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain And the seas fill with water That stops by the shore Just like the riches of grandeur, Never reach the poor Let the clouds fill with thunderous applause And let lightning be the veins That fill the sky With all that they can drop When it's time to make a change Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Oh make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down lord Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down Make it rain Make it rain
Ed's version has the soul of a young man, troubled in love and life. Foy's version has the pain of a man that has lost that very love and coping with that life. It's cathartic. I can't stop listening. I'll clarify further by saying that I do enjoy both versions but in their own right. Also, I prefer Foy's version. Ed = Pop, upbeat, softer, lighter feeling. Foy = Soul, bluesy, gritty, heavier... You just FEEL it.
James Lifsey I disagree. Ed's version is 3 notes on repeat and he just sings like he always sings. Smells of amateur, afraid. This is still not entirely blues but it grasps its elements much better To me Eds version is a failure cuz of 0 experience but kudos for trying and this version is the move over, ill show you how to do it.
James, i 100 % agree!! Foy has a rough, sensual oldness to his voice, i cant escape, it literally makes my heart skip and blows me away. Ed is like a fresh breath of air !!
I'm a truck driver and love listening this song while I'm driving in traffic jam, it's so relaxing. But, when I stop driving and listen this again, I close my eyes and I'm there ...that beautiful place of peace and loneliest
For me personally, coming from the blues of the African Americans in the '20s and the rempetika of the Greeks ( also from the '20s onwards) this is the bluesiest, bad-ass and classiest song and vocals I have ever heard. Kudos to you Mr Vance and thank you
"when the pain of my mother will not let me go" omg I love the lyrics of this song and the way he splashes out his feelings this is increadibly unbelievable
The sophistication of his mustache, with the turn of events in the background, compiled with the sorrow, defeat, and confusion behind his gaze...yet he keeps going, with the hope of a better tomorrow
Ed Sheehan and Foy Vance know how to sing and convey the meaning of the Blues from different perspectives-This is the power of the Blues when sung from the heart-loss of love 💕 👵🏽👋🏾🍂🥀🍂🥀🍂 💧⚡️💔💧⚡️💙💧

One of the most beautiful and soulfully sung songs I've ever heard. Mr. Foy Vance has a unique mellifluous and heartfelt sound...both musically and lyrically:)
BLUES THAT REACHES THE BONE MARROW AND TEARS AT YOUR VERY SOUL. THATS THE BLUES MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS..EMBRACE. THE BLUES.DAMM I THINK TENNESSEE WHISKEY HAS JUST BEEN BROUGHT DOWN ONE NOTCH. JUST ONE. WHAT CAN SAY 😨
god damn. First heard it in Sons of Anarchy, but instantly fell in love with it. Pure emotion and talent. We lack it so much these days. it's such a breath of fresh air.
Saw him perform this live about two years ago, I had never heard of him before, but the performance still stays with me to this day, what an amazing song.
I have a dream of dining while listening to an amazing song like this with my loved one, and feeling the love and peace inside of me. A glass of wine, the lights of the city on the window. Oh, life.
Blues as Blues shoud be ....chat the heart reach the soul ...let us feel we're not alone with our Blues ...thanks for sharing this special sparcling Blues-Song !!!
For all of us who had never heard of Foy Vance before Ed Sheeran's remake. I think we should thank Ed Sheeran for bringing Foy to our attention. I think Ed's a good young man who lifts up his influences and likes so we can appreciate them too.
I knew about this song long before Sons of Anarchy and Ed Sheeran. Vince has soul and sings this song and one can feel pain and this is what the blues be like being performed in a small blues juke joint in a small town. ❤ i can listen to this version for hours!
This is so raw, I'm in love. You can't compare this to Ed's version, both are unique in their own style of music. And both touch the soul. This, is music
This is NOT a cover. Foy Vance wrote and recorded this song first. And the original is untouchable. I like Ed Sheeran's version, but it can't begin to touch this version.
Just like Gold in it's raw state, not everyone has the eye to notice it. In this case, only few has the ears to spot this kind of gold. If you know what i mean.
I felt every piece of that. What a vocal. There are a few songs out there that I will just put on repeat for a while. This is one of them. Al Green's 'How Can You Mend A Broken Heart' is another.
When the sins of my father weigh down in my soul And the pain of my mother will not let me go Well, I know there can come fire from the sky to refine the purest of kings Even though, I know this fire brings me pain Even so, Lord just the same Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain Every seed needs the water before it grows out of the ground But it just keeps on getting hard, and the hunger more profound Well, I know there can come tears from the eye, but they may as well be in vain Even though I know these tears will bring me pain Even so, Lord just the same Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain Well, the sea is filled with water, stops by the shore Just like the riches of grandeur never reach the poor Let the clouds fill with thunderous applause, oh let lightning be the veins Fill the sky with all that they can draw, when it's time to make a change Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
This song is a tunnel through the muddy shores of the mind, with a voice so powerfully insightful; soul tingling and emotion eliciting. Truly a man's song after having served his sentence of silence through the years of personal evolution and duty fulfillment. A connoisseur of relatable woes, Foy has done more with this song more than he'd ever imagine! Respect!
@@peacefuljustice4801 I wouldn't consider myself to be an art critic at all, Monica. I'm just somebody that juxtaposes and narrates. A sip and a fireside retrospection allows a flow so splendid, it would not necessitate the rest.
I think Ed is fare to middling (and very very bad hair). But every generation needs their heros I guess. This is simple timeless quality, no fans bullshit. Just great blues.
I've listened to this song endlessly. No other song has ever hit me like this one. His voice is so incomparable and so emotional. I just can't even begin to describe it. Like a dreamy soulful song of longing and I still feel contorted somehow. There is a great song called ( silver lining) by Jacob Banks that I also love peace and love to everyone from Vancouver Canada
Ah When the sins of my father Weigh down in my soul And the pain of my mother Will not let me go Well, I know there can come fire from the sky To refine the purest of kings And even though I know this fire brings me pain Even so and just the same Make it rain Make it rain down, lord Make it rain Oh, make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, lord Make it rain Make it rain Well, a seed needs the water Before it grows out of the ground But it just keeps on getting hard And hunger more profound Well, I know they can't count tears from the eye But they may as well all be in vain And even though I know these tears come with pain Even so and just the same Make it rain Make it rain down, lord Make it rain Oh, make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, lord Just make it rain Make it rain Well, the seas are full of water Stops by the shore Just like the riches of grandeur, oh no, no Never reach the poor And let the clouds fill with thunderous applause And let lightning be the veins That fill the sky with all that they can draw When it's time to make a change Make it rain Make it rain down, lord Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, lord Make it rain Oh, make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Oh, make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, lord Make it rain Oh, make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Oh, make it rain
Man this is great gut-wrenching music for the soul, body and mind. Eargasm stuff...who couldn't be sincerely moved by that voice and axe! Just WOW!! So good 👍
Beautiful voice ..I try to sing this in and outside of my range.. but this is special... We can all heal the world through our voices.. Looking forward to hear more of you
Does anyone have any other songs to recommend like this one? Soulful, true feeling, meaningful music? I’ve got feelings won’t go away by citizens cope, lumineers, but need mores
Gary B.B Coleman - The Sky is Crying Snowy White - Midnight Blues Albert Cummings - Lonely Bed JT Coldfire - She's crazy Maybe you are going to love these songs. Have a nice day friends.
Wow...introduced to the song by the artist H.E.R who does an amazing job, then listened to Ed Sheeran's cover also amazing and is the most popular version I learned thru other comments Foy Vance is the original artist and writer and HE is definitely where the SOUL of this song lies you can feel the emotions this song was intended to invoke and it will move you deeply when you hear this version...I still have shivers...can't go back to the covers after this version...all amazing artist but this is out of body...raw...chilling.
@@marquiseharris2389 she has an insane voice, fact, but she doesn't make the soul of this song justice in my opinion. She.doesn't "feel it"... but again she is a brilliant performer.
I'm the type of person who FEELS music more than i hear it. This song had me feeling some type of way that i don't think I've ever felt. i got goose bumps and chills to my core. I just discovered you tonight. Cant wait to check out more of your music!!
Absolutely, my brother I feel music I interpret it the best I can when I pick up my own guitar, but sometimes the feeling being overwhelming like this tune.
Mr Foy Vance, you throw every emotion into this song. I've seen Muddy Waters live and although he was amazing, I feel your soul in my heart. That, my friend, is lightening and very rare. Love, love this.
Wasn't going to comment, but every part of this song gives me goosebumps. Vocals, the melody, the band. Trifecta. This is music to me, fee it in my soul, my pores.
That's the best description I have heard for a lot of songs and for a state of mind I hope I never feel again. Thank you for giving it such a poignant image. And yes this song is the best of them
@@karenmount1295 As they say, "takes one to know one". Definitely spent many a night doing exactly this, listening to this song while doing it. Quit for years now, but this song will forever remain. Thanks for the kind words.
Tremenda voz, tremenda canción, tremenda interpretación. Un rezo, una plegaria desgarrada. Si fuera necesario para justificar la obra o la vida de una persona, la creación de esta canción bastaría. Grande Grande Foy Vance.
This is what I call MUSIC!!!! I have no words to describe what I think for this performance..... It's magical and so touching...no no no ....words are not good enough 😱😱😱😱🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The ORIGINAL unbeaten, deep from the soul, the guts and the heart - thank you so much. Feel the weight of every songline, and it fills my heart. Thank you so much!!!
So much recognition this song has received I’ve been listening to this man for years, I’m glad others have been given the opportunity to listen to his passionate voice.
Yoko Ono - The Yoko Ono? God bless you for sharing your feelings about the song. Somehow it created a musical bridge for me...a legend from the past to this young lad’s voice.....
When I first heard Ed Sheeran do this song I thought nobody could do it better. I was wrong! This is probably the most soulful song I have ever heard! Foy Vance where does this come from? DAMMMMNNNNN!
I had no idea this was the original! The whole time i thought this was a Ed sheeran song im so happy I came across this!! Honestly this is better than eds cover no disrespect to ed sheeran but my god this version is incredible!
Sr Foy Vance: Su interpretación me ha emocionado hasta las lágrimas. Gracias!!!! Un abrazo grande desde Buenos Aires!!! De músico a músico. Gracias!!!!!
I was listening to this in my room in the middle of the night, had to go out for a cigarette because of how angelic his voice is only to find out it was raining heavily .. pure magic! I found myself walking aimlessly, removed my hoodie for the rain to pour straight unto me .. speechless
true smokers can relate with the feeling, that unique feeling, of walking down the street with rain powering over our heads, whilst having a distant thought, just feeling, maybe for the first time in days, weeks or so, just feeling, feeling alive....
I have always thought that Ed Sheeran's version touched my heart, but here, the original...has truly put me at peace. Words can't explain what this version has done to me.
This needs to be mainstream. Why isnt this guy on the radio? We need this music back so everyone can have the chance to appreciate it. Why isnt he on the damn radio!!!!!!???
This is why I love the internet! An Ed Sheeran rabbit hole led me to discover this talented brother. So many talented people in this world that mainstream media neglects.
Ed Sheerens parents are Irish... Foy Vance is Irish...that is why Sheeren copied the song in his cover
Same thing ed Sheraton tune on sons of Anarchy led me to this. This dude is bad ass. Will probably become one of my new, blues favorites
Larcenia roe brought me here
Your Honor brought me here. The guy that sang it on there definitely did it justice.
Came for the Moustache, stayed for the Blues.
Same! 😍
It was the Pagpang Hupaw that got my attention .. 😉. I thought “ we’ll see “ I’m just glad it did ✌🏻😊🙏
Hands down, The BEST fucking comment here by far...YOU Sir, Are a goddamned genius. LEVEL UP!!!

Let the clouds fill with thunderous applause
And let lightning be the veins

@@daleross9001 This was put out by Ed Shehran, and his version is best!
@@openyoureyes4799Doubt it.
@@openyoureyes4799Eds version is a cover. Foy is the original singer
Ed's version has the soul of a young man, troubled in love and life.
Foy's version has the pain of a man that has lost that very love and coping with that life.
It's cathartic. I can't stop listening.
I'll clarify further by saying that I do enjoy both versions but in their own right. Also, I prefer Foy's version.
Ed = Pop, upbeat, softer, lighter feeling.
Foy = Soul, bluesy, gritty, heavier... You just FEEL it.
James Lifsey I disagree. Ed's version is 3 notes on repeat and he just sings like he always sings. Smells of amateur, afraid. This is still not entirely blues but it grasps its elements much better
To me Eds version is a failure cuz of 0 experience but kudos for trying and this version is the move over, ill show you how to do it.
James, you worded that perfectly. I have goosebumps listening to him pour his heart and soul into this song. Love it!!
James, i 100 % agree!! Foy has a rough, sensual oldness to his voice, i cant escape, it literally makes my heart skip and blows me away. Ed is like a fresh breath of air !!
There are ton upon tons of Soul/bluesy type of songs made/written/sung by Edward Christopher Sheeran...
@@gamemaster8488 you clearly don't know what I know,ma lad.

Wish you safe journeys sir!
Hope your doing good brother whoever you are.

Safe travels friend, feel the same.
I can feel the pain just looking at this guys eyes ... beautiful voice

Not pain, lust.
For me personally, coming from the blues of the African Americans in the '20s and the rempetika of the Greeks ( also from the '20s onwards) this is the bluesiest, bad-ass and classiest song and vocals I have ever heard. Kudos to you Mr Vance and thank you
I'm a man with simple tastes,
In the morning I listen to the news,
At nights,
I listen to the blues.

so thank you. ı wrong it. maybe ı met with ed sheeran's version firstly.
umm.... No I am your just a fan
Why is the cover the more popular version. Foy Vance hits the track ten times harder. Chills every time
Anthony Reese Because it was on Sons of Anarchy, which a lot of people watched.
Just like Gold in it's raw state, not everyone has the eye to notice it. In this case, only few has the ears to spot this kind of gold. If you know what i mean.
jr maldito you express it with great words that make me speechless
And because for wrote this song people....this is truly the original
Mainstream promotes sex and youth rather than soulful talent.
I felt every piece of that. What a vocal. There are a few songs out there that I will just put on repeat for a while. This is one of them. Al Green's 'How Can You Mend A Broken Heart' is another.

Well, a seed needs the water
Before it grows out of the ground
But it just keeps on getting hard
And hunger more profound
Well, I know they can't count tears from the eye
But they may as well all be in vain
And even though I know these tears come with pain
Even so and just the same
Make it rain
Make it rain down, lord
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down, lord
Just make it rain
Make it rain
Well, the seas are full of water
Stops by the shore
Just like the riches of grandeur, oh no, no
Never reach the poor
And let the clouds fill with thunderous applause
And let lightning be the veins
That fill the sky with all that they can draw
When it's time to make a change
Make it rain
Make it rain down, lord
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down, lord
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down, lord
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain

Miss the Blues..miss Beale street..thanks for posting
Saw him open for Brett Dennen a few years ago.....GOOSEBUMPS. Through his entire set. 💜
That Voice...so amazing, perfect.
The first time I heard this song a few months ago, it was like a dam burst inside of me. I couldn't stop crying. This is a masterpiece.
Man this is great gut-wrenching music for the soul, body and mind. Eargasm stuff...who couldn't be sincerely moved by that voice and axe! Just WOW!! So good 👍
Beautiful voice ..I try to sing this in and outside of my range.. but this is special... We can all heal the world through our voices.. Looking forward to hear more of you
Does anyone have any other songs to recommend like this one? Soulful, true feeling, meaningful music? I’ve got feelings won’t go away by citizens cope, lumineers, but need mores

Shaw james -midnight dove
Wow...introduced to the song by the artist H.E.R who does an amazing job, then listened to Ed Sheeran's cover also amazing and is the most popular version I learned thru other comments Foy Vance is the original artist and writer and HE is definitely where the SOUL of this song lies you can feel the emotions this song was intended to invoke and it will move you deeply when you hear this version...I still have shivers...can't go back to the covers after this version...all amazing artist but this is out of body...raw...chilling.
Listen to the Shoshana Bean Cover she is insane
Yes, listen to Shoshana Bean's rendition; it's mindblowing!
Koryn Hawthorne sang it beautifully as well! Check her out :)
@@marquiseharris2389 she has an insane voice, fact, but she doesn't make the soul of this song justice in my opinion. She.doesn't "feel it"... but again she is a brilliant performer.
What a soul, what a energy and what a voice. Deeply connectid, no excape...
I'm the type of person who FEELS music more than i hear it. This song had me feeling some type of way that i don't think I've ever felt. i got goose bumps and chills to my core. I just discovered you tonight. Cant wait to check out more of your music!!
I agree, Listening to him is an emotional music voyage
Absolutely, my brother I feel music I interpret it the best I can when I pick up my own guitar, but sometimes the feeling being overwhelming like this tune.
Mr Foy Vance, you throw every emotion into this song. I've seen Muddy Waters live and although he was amazing, I feel your soul in my heart. That, my friend, is lightening and very rare. Love, love this.
Hello Fuphyter. How are you doing today. Hope all is going well over there?
I listened to this at least 50 times, and I still get goosebumps!
Wasn't going to comment, but every part of this song gives me goosebumps. Vocals, the melody, the band. Trifecta. This is music to me, fee it in my soul, my pores.
One of the best "hopeless, resigned to cruel fate, looking through a haze of smoke at the moon on a rooftop" song that has ever been made.
That's the best description I have heard for a lot of songs and for a state of mind I hope I never feel again. Thank you for giving it such a poignant image. And yes this song is the best of them
@@karenmount1295 As they say, "takes one to know one". Definitely spent many a night doing exactly this, listening to this song while doing it.
Quit for years now, but this song will forever remain. Thanks for the kind words.
Sad when you’re building castles in your mind for someone who probably doesn’t even think about you.
Enerji Mühendisi Öğrencisi wow
...
Well said...
Hope you're find someone who deserve you...
aga bee yaktım aq çok doğru
How could any human listen to this song without crying! OMG his voice catches all the tears and fears in my soul!
its harder downn here in South Aafrica
I love Foy Vance, he is an amazing artist and I hope he gets his due!
Tremenda voz, tremenda canción, tremenda interpretación. Un rezo, una plegaria desgarrada.
Si fuera necesario para justificar la obra o la vida de una persona, la creación de esta canción bastaría.
Grande Grande Foy Vance.
What an amazing tone! That guit, my god. Pure poetry.
Não canso de ouvir! Essa música é o meu oxigênio...
Sei do que você esta falando. Também existe uma música que me deixa assim.
What a soul rendering voice! AMAZING!❤
I feel your souls close to mine every day, especially when I listen to this beautiful song. I miss you two...🖤

The pain of life pulling the heart strings and blues plays on
The ORIGINAL unbeaten, deep from the soul, the guts and the heart - thank you so much. Feel the weight of every songline, and it fills my heart. Thank you so much!!!
So much recognition this song has received I’ve been listening to this man for years, I’m glad others have been given the opportunity to listen to his passionate voice.

Yoko Ono - The Yoko Ono? God bless you for sharing your feelings about the song. Somehow it created a musical bridge for me...a legend from the past to this young lad’s voice.....

Wow! Glad I decided to click on this song! I’ve been jamming a lot of blues lately and trying to find artists I haven’t heard. Wow... just wow
Encore une découverte ❤️❤️❤️
Je reste les yeux fermés et je pars très loin...
I love how slow and soulful this is
When I first heard Ed Sheeran do this song I thought nobody could do it better. I was wrong! This is probably the most soulful song I have ever heard! Foy Vance where does this come from? DAMMMMNNNNN!
Eth Wei Foy Vance is the writer of this song.
Eth Wei you have not heard Koryn Hawthorne yet
Tenesse whiskey is pretty up there too & Feeling Good too.
from being from northern ireland
Eth Wei right on!!!
I came and I don't know why, but here I am and here I will stay. Long live blue forever!
Honest to god. One of the best version I’ve ever heard. Make me cry again and again
But it's the original version
@@joaovictorbrittobastos1421 I didn’t knew man. Thanks
I had no idea this was the original! The whole time i thought this was a Ed sheeran song im so happy I came across this!! Honestly this is better than eds cover no disrespect to ed sheeran but my god this version is incredible!
You should hear the craig edi cover for the voice is wonderful.
It is the original.
Foy wrote this.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS THAT I HEARD IN LAST TIME. EVERY TIME I LISTEN AND ANIMES AT THE BODY ...
Beautiful song
Sr Foy Vance:
Su interpretación me ha emocionado hasta las lágrimas.
Gracias!!!!
Un abrazo grande desde Buenos Aires!!! De músico a músico.
Gracias!!!!!
This was the last song that I sent my dad before he died and he loved it. This song to me is him in some way. Make it rain, Dad❤️
The good lord had no choice but to open the skies after his soul begged for it here. Jeesh.
I was listening to this in my room in the middle of the night, had to go out for a cigarette because of how angelic his voice is only to find out it was raining heavily .. pure magic! I found myself walking aimlessly, removed my hoodie for the rain to pour straight unto me .. speechless
Ignorance is bliss.
Well thats not smart while smoking a cigarette
That is beautiful
@@rienkleereveld4384 😅😅😅great replly😅😅😅
true smokers can relate with the feeling, that unique feeling, of walking down the street with rain powering over our heads, whilst having a distant thought, just feeling, maybe for the first time in days, weeks or so, just feeling, feeling alive....
This song makes me feel so good . His voce sounds like heaven !
How i wish there was a video recording of Foy singing this song. His body language and facial expressions would be priceless.
no one has this kind of connection with a song as the writer who has lived it.....❤
Какой блюз, какое исполнение, какой надрыв, браво!!!!
I have always thought that Ed Sheeran's version touched my heart, but here, the original...has truly put me at peace. Words can't explain what this version has done to me.
Ooohhhh por Dios esa voz y ese rasgado gran artista que sentimiento 🇨🇷🎶❤
This song literally teleports me to worlds heretofore unknown. It's so otherworldly.
Best song I have heard in the past months
So good ❤️👌🔥
WOW! Never heard the original before! AWESOME VOICE!
How much must a person go through to have the ability to sing with such conviction and emotion?
This needs to be mainstream. Why isnt this guy on the radio? We need this music back so everyone can have the chance to appreciate it. Why isnt he on the damn radio!!!!!!???
you presume everyone doesn't have a musical culture... don't. :) x
