The sound engineering in this piece is incredible. I've never heard a more beautifully mixed piece that captures the distinctness of each voice in the harmony plus the unique qualities of every single instrument. The sound engineers deserve every audio engineering award there is for this beautiful accomplishment
A violin solo instead of guitar??? Brilliant!!!! I get goosebumps every time that I hear this cover. The harmonies are just so killer and spot on!! I love it, love it, love it!!!
Every single one of them is so clearly heard in this! It's stunning how talented all 4 are and how well they can stand out, and blend so beautifully back into harmony, yet be individually recognizable if you are paying attention to a specific one. I'm captivated each time I hear it, and THIS specific one, is so well produced compared to ANY other! This, is the definition of artistic talent across the board! ♥
Holy shit…that was amazing!! The sound engineers alone deserve a raise. Their vocals sync beautifully with the instruments, and it just gives my chills. Beautiful rendition of a classic, loved it.
his in studio performers really shine in there. His engineers and sound guys are just top notch. I agree, every song in his new studio at sirius is just top notch.
Holy shit. This is UNREAL. Every artist and sound engineer in this performance were at their best. I never thought anyone could cover this song until now.
WOW! Never thought in a million years anyone could cover and do justice to this song. The engineering , the players and the vocals are over the top! Absolute sweetness.
Dear Lord! These women are incredible. And I don’t know what Howard Sterns team knows, but the sound from these performances are insane and this one tops them all. The mix is perfect.
4 part harmony is next to impossible to pull off. Here, it's perfect. The violin is absolutely masterful in the solo. I could watch this on a loop for hours.
This is an awesome performance from some very talented women, but 4-part harmony is pretty routine. Choirs full of ordinary people do it all the time, and it's pretty common to split beyond that, even. It can get a bit tricky when there is a lot of dissonance or exotic harmonic language, but still quite doable.
Never thought anyone could pull this off. They more than captured the spirit of Stevie and Lindsay. Their harmonies are incredible and the violin/fiddle replacing Buckinghams guitar was a genius move. On my playlist now.
This what you get when you some super talented artists and they take great song . And completely blow you away with a version you didn’t even know you needed to hear . Their voices together are so special this performance should have been opening the Grammy’s unbelievable is all can say . Well done ladies I see so much greatness for you all in the future as a group and solo .
Best cover of this song ive ever heard. They all sound amazing. Brandi Carlisle's voice can shatter glass 💙. So underrated its ridiculous. Get it girls.
I am not sure Howard is fully aware of his ability to influence the music scene. This is so well done live in his studio. Props to Sirius for putting it out on UA-cam for the world to hear (see).
I think this may be my favorite cover I ever heard. I love the versatility in the voices and the generation differences. It's a sweet reminder that music is eternal and binds us together. ❤
Sarah Freligh It’s a five-string violin, which has a C string added. The pitches of the five strings are typically (with C4 being Middle C): C3, G3, D4, A4 and E5. It basically combines the range of both a violin (G, D, A, and E) and a viola (C, G, D, A) and allows the player to cover a wider range of notes than on either a traditional violin (which the five-string violin is structurally similar to) or a traditional viola (which is a little bit larger than a traditional violin). The strings on all three instruments are tuned to perfect fifths from each other.
As a very longtime Fleetwood Mac fan I adore this cover!!! The violen adds such a gypsy feel to it that it conveys the essence of Stevie's musical aesthetic perfectly!
Standing ovation! This is an incredible cover. I love the addition of the fiddle. The way each singer takes the "run" background vocals in turn at the denouement is also an inspired choice. Many kudos!
Without question the best recording of this song ever made. The harmonies are exquisite, the band perfect background balance and the women all amazing in their talents. If this isn’t a Grammy winning performance I don’t know what is. Can’t listen to it enough.
They nailed it! It's very cool to see all these musicians that I've listened to individually and have respect for playing on the same stage. Doing Fleetwood Mac, no less!! (Also, Gov't Mule ft. Grace Potter doing "Gold Dust Woman" was a good one, too.)
Holy WOW.. How am I just now seeing this. Gave me chills. Their harmonies perfection the sound amazing these Ladies are pure perfection! Best cover of this song I've ever heard!!!
What a wonderful cover of a great song. The fiddle really ties it all together. The sound engineer deserves a medal for this recording... Great! I love this tune.
At first I thought no way, but then I listened and DAMN they absolutely nailed it! That four part harmony is haunting but in the most good way anyone could have done! Well done!
All I gotta say is Wow!!! 🤩 Not only do these ladies sing like angels- they’re all beautiful as well!!! They’ve got a new fan in me!!! F#ckin’ incredible!!! ❤️👍🏻😉
@@mikephillips1043 I don't watch Sons of Anarchy but his band Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit have a song called Go It Alone. ua-cam.com/video/x9iYAJ-wVKQ/v-deo.html Check out his stuff, especially the album Southeastern. It's great
Wow, bravo for focusing on one of the only men in the room, and applauding him. Instead of applauding his kick ass wife and the other kick ass women in this band. You should do better RObert.
Damn, that's the best cover of the song I've ever heard, and I've heard plenty. Close your eyes and you can't tell it's a live performance. Absolute perfection by everyone involved.
@@derekrandle3856 Yes! Dammit, *that's* what it is. I knew she was lifting a line from something familiar, but I just couldn't place it. Her fiddling btw on this take is *lit*. She goes even more off into brilliant madness territory with the fiddle part on the version they did with Jimmy Fallon. What a brilliant talent.
I heard her do a pretty awful Led Zepplin cover at a concert, but the rest of the concert was great. She’s one of my favorite musicians so I’ll forgive the transgression.
Goosebumps! Check! wow it’s these little pockets of perfection in humanity that make this world magical. It’s a great day not to be dead thank you for this masterpiece!
Brandi Carlile is now in my favorite two cover song videos of all-time; this and her cover of 'Madman Across the Water' by Elton John. It is here on youtube. I never in a million years would have thought someone would have the balls to cover 'Madman Across the Water', but Brandi did it and it is amazing!!!
I think probably for the first time, I have been completely blown away by a live track... the engineering on this is down to a T and everyone here is just incredible!
@Aaron A420 VERY heavy on the reverb, especially considering how powerful the voices were. Edit: Listening to other versions, it seems that it's the Highwomen's choice. Everything else about this production does sound amazing.
Such a beautiful cover of an amazing song. Gives me goosebumps....it's rare that a cover is better than the original, but I think this one achieves that. Props to the amazing engineers 👏
Incredible mix of voices. Shires adds that extra something in my opinion. Not only with her vocals but also with her fiddle skills. Isbell is the icing on the cake. Really cool take.
Agreed! And not just with her incredible fiddle. I get the impression in interviews that she might not be super confident with her vocals--at least maybe with the HW? But she's special.
Best cover of "The Chain" ever performed! Every aspect of this performance is pure perfection. Fleetwood Mac should be very proud of what they did with this classic song. 😄
Between this, and the Dixie Chicks version of "Landslide" (the best version IMO), an all Country/Women-led album of Fleetwood Mac covers would be transcendent
Actually, this is a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain," from the 1977 album "Rumours." It was written by Christine McVie, John Mc Vie, Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, and Stephanie Nicks.
They are still 7 of the best song writers in existence today. Not to take anything away from the other 6 but, Jason Isbell is this generation's Bob Dylan. Go listen to the man's work.
That was simply outstanding! Had heard they were doing this song, one that is so hard to justice to, as it is a complex piece of music with so many different elements, but they did it honorably.
I may not be a country music fan... but DAMN, did that performance give me chills! Stevie and Lindsey must’ve been beaming with pride (when they weren’t trying to kill each other)!
The noise separation is really good in the place they were filming which is great cuz I can hear the voices clearly the instruments sound awesome and clear its just awesome great jobs to the artists and sound engineers
Not surprising - just incredible. Several of my favorite artists here! Amanda Shires (and rockin' Jason Isbell) and Brandi Carlile (and those incredible Hanseroth twins in the back) were pretty amazing even early on - I remember hearing them again a few years ago on the Woodsongs Radio podcasts, which coincidentally often had incredible sound engineering like this as well. This group really nails every second on this song.
You cant help but notice a real crisp clean sound in this studio, the mind boggles what would have happened if Fleetwood Mac had this tech back in the 70's
Howard always knew the importance of a studio with great acoustics. Performances in the raggedy 90's studio still sounded incredible! This band did a great cover and sounded awesome.
So we all fell in love with the original “Chain” by a landslide, but, if we’d never heard this song until now, it would be THE Benchmark reference, imho....flawless harmonies and musicianship...thanx for sharing!
I think you are right. The first time I heard this I thought it was lacking Stevie Nicks range and the Fleetwood percussion. But listening to them back to back this version is incredible, just a little different.
Huge Mac fan and of course love the original but i have to say wow that was absolutely stunning and as for those harmonies and the Buckingham solo on a violin superb job

Yes it is pretty incredible!
Comment thief. Proud of yourself?
Its because of the ATM350GL mics from audio-technica
Bettern' those there American Idol reverb artistes.....
That reverb rings until tomorrow. We must not be listening to the same piece...
A violin solo instead of guitar??? Brilliant!!!! I get goosebumps every time that I hear this cover. The harmonies are just so killer and spot on!! I love it, love it, love it!!!
fiddle
Harmonies? You hear harmony?
It's a bass solo not a guitar in the chain
Every single one of them is so clearly heard in this! It's stunning how talented all 4 are and how well they can stand out, and blend so beautifully back into harmony, yet be individually recognizable if you are paying attention to a specific one.

The gal with the violin steals my soul during the chorus.
Amanda Shires
Amanda Shires, the now ex-wife of Jason Isbell, the guitarist on the far left.

You are dead on!
That would be Howard lol. He mixes his own shit.
amen.
Does he? @@flophilp
Nailed it! Synchronization was perfect and voices created an amazing sound. Yes, they gave me chills. One of favorite music videos!
I don’t know a thing about Howard stern, but whoever the sound engineer is needs a raise. Every performance I come across, is aces.
his in studio performers really shine in there. His engineers and sound guys are just top notch. I agree, every song in his new studio at sirius is just top notch.
Holy shit. This is UNREAL. Every artist and sound engineer in this performance were at their best. I never thought anyone could cover this song until now.
Simply badass....
Fleetwood Mac Praised Harry Styles cover of this song , check it out you will not regret it . I was very pleasantly surprised.
And it only took 7 people to do it!
I think the vocal levels were a tad too high and with too much reverb. Beautiful though.
Harry Styles does this well too
WOW! Never thought in a million years anyone could cover and do justice to this song. The engineering , the players and the vocals are over the top! Absolute sweetness.
There should be awards for this kind of thing. Absolutely brilliant performances, sound engineering, all of it!!

*Lindsey
I can’t stop listening to it-I must come back once a day at this point.
Took them four people to live up to Lindsey and Stevies’ vocals. Not giving them shit, just proves how incredibly Fleetwood Mac once was.
Lindsey's guitar was substituted with violin but I thought he was going to pop out and jam the fuck out of it any second.
@@alexcunningham4847 The body of work that Fleetwood Mac has is tough to wrap your head around, so many original absolute classics
This what you get when you some super talented artists and they take great song . And completely blow you away with a version you didn’t even know you needed to hear .

This is the most perfect recording I’ve ever heard
Its Christmas eve in England and I choose to listen to this. Tremendous. Thank you. Thank you America.
Best cover of this song ive ever heard. They all sound amazing. Brandi Carlisle's voice can shatter glass 💙. So underrated its ridiculous. Get it girls.
Is she the one that kinda looks like Khloe Kardashian?
You are so right about Brandi Carlisle 🙌
@MoonChild84 ...Brandi is in the longer beige jacket. Third from left.
That is what I was just thinking Brandi oh my
Couldn't agree more blown away by this version of this classic song 😃😍
I’ve probably watched this 100 times so far
10000

what a powerfull chilling harmony...just love them
Jesus, that violin mixed with the classic bass solo is incredible! Great cover!
👑's are 💣!!! 👑💯👑💯😍👍👑
I thought the same thing
I’m obsessed, I keep coming back for that part. I love that you can tell that they enjoying playing it!
That sounds lower than a violin-- viola range.

Hauntingly beautiful. That violin...the feels, the powerful voices and that classic bass part we all love so much.
That was actually fucking brilliant, they did justice to this classic track!!!
Fleetwood Mac don't do it justice no more.,lol 😂😂👍
Angel: I wouldn't say brilliant; solid but not really that memorable. The vocals are more
workmanlike than passionate.
Since they screwed Lindsey Buckingham over and kicked him out, this is the best version you will hear.
@@polarbear2579 Yeah. Creatives gonna be Creatives.
Agreed!
Holy shit that four part harmony gave me chills. Incredible performance.
My.exact.words. Ho-ly SHIT!
There’s harmonizing, and then there’s this. Absolutely incredible! When the fiddle hits 🤯
Without question the best recording of this song ever made. The harmonies are exquisite, the band perfect background balance and the women all amazing in their talents. If this isn’t a Grammy winning performance I don’t know what is. Can’t listen to it enough.
you can’t beat the original.
Harry Styles’s version is my favourite cover of this song! He absolutely nails it
this isn't a patch on the Show Ponies cover of this iconic song
Best cover. I'd have to give that honor to HSCC. This is wonderful though.
Bullshit
Best cover I've ever heard of Chain!!!!
They nailed it! It's very cool to see all these musicians that I've listened to individually and have respect for playing on the same stage. Doing Fleetwood Mac, no less!!

Superb! Amanda Shires with a fantastic 🎻 solo 👏🏻
The harmony in these voices is insane. Amanda Shires singing atop them through the chorus is epic.
Stellar performance. You don't need elaborate music videos - just super talented musicians in a well lit studio.
Even as an ensemble, you can still hear Brandi Carlile's vocals stand out!
Sure enuff! Had no idea who these ladies were but even out of the group of them singing I thought i heard Brandy. Yup, there she is.
They made this their own. I am a serious Fleetwood Mac fan and I never heard this song done so well, original artists included.
That violonist! Excellent on the violon... and that crystal pure voice! 😍
Amanda Shires, Jason Isbell's wife. He is playing in the back.....
All I gotta say is Wow!!! 🤩
Not only do these ladies sing like angels- they’re all beautiful as well!!! They’ve got a new fan in me!!! F#ckin’ incredible!!! ❤️👍🏻😉
Fantastic! All of it!
Instruments - check
Vocals - check
Sound mix - check
Stage presence - check
One of the best covers of any song I have ever seen!
The Highwomen did for The Chain what Disturbed did for Sound of Silence. What knocks this version out of orbit is the violin solo.
I love that Jason Isbell is playing guitar is playing in the background, letting Amanda shine, as she always does.
His name sounds really familiar did he have a song on sons of anarchy called something like go it alone?
@@mikephillips1043 I don't watch Sons of Anarchy but his band Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit have a song called Go It Alone.

RIP Christine McVie
@@martianvideo❤
How cool is Amanda Shires version of Lindsay Buckingham's guitar solo. Awesome
thomas paciello my friend Is named Amanda
Indeed! It was nice to see Jason playing second fiddle (pun intended). They're both amazing musicians all around.
Was it just me or was there a brief homage to Billy Joel's "We didn't start the fire" in her solo?
@@derekrandle3856 Yes! Dammit, *that's* what it is. I knew she was lifting a line from something familiar, but I just couldn't place it. Her fiddling btw on this take is *lit*. She goes even more off into brilliant madness territory with the fiddle part on the version they did with Jimmy Fallon. What a brilliant talent.
Her "runnin' in the shadow" after the solo sounded like Dolly.
All of these artists are incredible, but honestly, I would listen to Brandi Carlisle sing literally anything.
Jennifer Henderson after 100percent
Agree!
Agreed
She could literally read me a narration of paint drying and I would pay good money for it
I heard her do a pretty awful Led Zepplin cover at a concert, but the rest of the concert was great. She’s one of my favorite musicians so I’ll forgive the transgression.
I rarely get goosebumps when I listen to cover songs.
These ladies have just done it.
Magnificent.
Goosebumps! Check! wow it’s these little pockets of perfection in humanity that make this world magical. It’s a great day not to be dead thank you for this masterpiece!
These women are so friggin phenomenal! Together and alone, so much talent
Amanda Shires just nails it in every way !
don't want to go overboard here but this might just be the best 4 minutes of music i have ever heard on UA-cam.
These Howard Stern recordings are just on a whole new level, every one I've listened to is pristine 👌
Brandi Carlile is now in my favorite two cover song videos of all-time; this and her cover of 'Madman Across the Water' by Elton John. It is here on youtube. I never in a million years would have thought someone would have the balls to cover 'Madman Across the Water', but Brandi did it and it is amazing!!!
The sound engineer responsible for the mixing of this track deserves a pay rise. Top shelf.
Damn right!! and that fiddle! Go Amanda! All y'all sound amazing, and so great together.
I think probably for the first time, I have been completely blown away by a live track... the engineering on this is down to a T and everyone here is just incredible!
My regards to Howard's audio engineer-amazing quality
@Aaron A420 VERY heavy on the reverb, especially considering how powerful the voices were. Edit: Listening to other versions, it seems that it's the Highwomen's choice. Everything else about this production does sound amazing.
Scott must have taken the day off
@FEAR The Walking Don
That was going to be my question! Does Scott the Engineer still work for Howard?
I bet it was Scott. Jokes aside he is actually a good producer. Howard wouldn't have kept him around for so long if he wasn't.
@Aaron A420 I agree and not enough room for a drummer.
Such a beautiful cover of an amazing song. Gives me goosebumps....it's rare that a cover is better than the original, but I think this one achieves that. Props to the amazing engineers 👏
I enjoyed just listening to Amanda play the violin. Such a cool tone to it.
Sent chills down my spine, and brought tears to my eyes. Dear God that was sweet.
I've loved them since i was a teen. I've seen them twice, NEVER would i have thought anyone could have done this justice. I was wrong! Awesome.
Great line-up! Brandi Carlisle has an incredible voice. And Jason Isbell on guitar!
Amanda Shire is awesome !!! What a gorgeous little thing ❤️
This is freeking awesome. My fav FM song and these girls nailed it.
Incredible mix of voices. Shires adds that extra something in my opinion. Not only with her vocals but also with her fiddle skills. Isbell is the icing on the cake. Really cool take.
Agreed! And not just with her incredible fiddle. I get the impression in interviews that she might not be super confident with her vocals--at least maybe with the HW? But she's special.
Love how @jasonisbell and the twins sit back and play guitar while the ladies slay this song! Props to all of you; loving every minute of it!
Love Amanda's twist of the vocals during the chorus.
That was pure talent and emotion, it's not music without emotion, music is emotion. nailed it.
Best cover of "The Chain" ever performed! Every aspect of this performance is pure perfection. Fleetwood Mac should be very proud of what they did with this classic song. 😄
ALL the feels, gooseys and butterflies! Probably the best cover tune I've ever heard.
This rendition was stunning!
I just can’t stop listening to it!
Between this, and the Dixie Chicks version of "Landslide" (the best version IMO), an all Country/Women-led album of Fleetwood Mac covers would be transcendent
That would be interesting
How has no one thought of this before?! I want that so bad now
Who's the Dixie chicks?
You should check out Stevie Nicks with Lady Antebellum on Crossroads!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those vocals, those harmonies!! Wow…
If this doesn't give you chills... check your pulse.
Child every time I watch it, but 3:44 till the end just wow!
It’s good but If you want CHILLS go listen to the original.
Seven of the best songwriters out there today. Brandi, Maren, Amanda, Natalie, Jason, Tim, and Phil.
You realize this band didn't write this song, right?
Actually, this is a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain," from the 1977 album "Rumours." It was written by Christine McVie, John Mc Vie, Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, and Stephanie Nicks.
They are still 7 of the best song writers in existence today. Not to take anything away from the other 6 but, Jason Isbell is this generation's Bob Dylan. Go listen to the man's work.

The noise separation is really good in the place they were filming which is great cuz I can hear the voices clearly the instruments sound awesome and clear its just awesome great jobs to the artists and sound engineers
The best cover of "The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac I've ever heard. These ladies did a fantastic job.
Give me Roger Sheppe covering King of the Road
Try Florence and the machine at Glastonbury festival 2010.
I can't literally stop listening to this masterpiece!
Not surprising - just incredible. Several of my favorite artists here! Amanda Shires (and rockin' Jason Isbell) and Brandi Carlile (and those incredible Hanseroth twins in the back) were pretty amazing even early on - I remember hearing them again a few years ago on the Woodsongs Radio podcasts, which coincidentally often had incredible sound engineering like this as well. This group really nails every second on this song.
I agree. Brandi is precious.
When your band is the Hanseroths and Jason there's just no where else to go. Just incredible. And as always, the Stern engineers are remarkable.
💖Such a beautiful cover of 1 of my favourite songs from Fleetwood Mac, The chain,the harmonies are spirit soaring x
These ladies, musicians, and engineers are incredibly talented! They do justice to Stevie Nicks and Christy McVie!
I listened to this version 3 times in a row. The harmonies are exquisite. Ladies I am a new fan Thank You.
As a guitarist for just 27 short years, I appreciate Fiddle players very much. 11/10
You cant help but notice a real crisp clean sound in this studio, the mind boggles what would have happened if Fleetwood Mac had this tech back in the 70's
holy moly! a 4 part harmony in such a quality.... well done! fleetwood mac would be proud!
Howard always knew the importance of a studio with great acoustics. Performances in the raggedy 90's studio still sounded incredible! This band did a great cover and sounded awesome.
Fleetwood Mac 's music has been a huge influence in my life. I'm a purist. I have to say these Ladies did a fantastic cover of "The Chain". Great!!
The 4 that downvoted this are out of their minds! Highwomen this is such a wonderful, beautiful cover!
they have no taste in music.
@@easygordon Lmao!
About as badass as a violin can be. Along with the 4 part harmony, this was so sick. Way to kill it ladies!
Wow, that was friggin' awesome! Beautiful song, beautiful women, beautiful voices, beautiful music. I am simply in awe right now...
Not only did this give me chills, it nearly brought tears to my eyes. Bravo!
I LOVE Fleeetwood Mac... and THIS is one of the best renditions of their songs... EVER!
So we all fell in love with the original “Chain” by a landslide, but, if we’d never heard this song until now, it would be THE Benchmark reference, imho....flawless harmonies and musicianship...thanx for sharing!
"Landslide".... I see what you did there :)
"So we all fell in love with the original 'Chain' by a landslide..." I see what you did there...
I think you are right. The first time I heard this I thought it was lacking Stevie Nicks range and the Fleetwood percussion. But listening to them back to back this version is incredible, just a little different.
the addition of the closing bassline theme at the very end played by the violinist was a nice idea & neatly wraps a bow around the entire song
Huge Mac fan and of course love the original but i have to say wow that was absolutely stunning and as for those harmonies and the Buckingham solo on a violin superb job
