Should we ask for a show of hands?
I can’t even tell you how often I come back to listen to this!
I'm in my 70's now and warmly reminisce about my younger days when I hear these songs. I often share F & F's songs, talents and harmonies. Thanks for the memories!
I've been a sound engineer for over 40 years. That was one of the best mixes I have ever heard. Each individual trac was clear and distinct. I've heard and watched songs mixed in million dollar + studio's that didn't blend together that smoothly.

You all sent me back to my best years in the early 70s while in the Navy. I’m 75 now and still loving all this. Thank you for doing this song and putting life into those great songs. You all did CSN justice. God bless.
Every time I hear Foxes and Fossils I just love them more and more!!!!!
Foxes and Fossils always show great respect for prior artist's work.
"I think that was a winner" Perhaps the F & F understatement of 2022. Absolutely amazing.
The groups ability to pull out and joyfully sing the essence of each song they cover pays such respect to the music. Every song F&F covers is a celebration of the original song and artist.
As many times as I have watched this, I can't believe I never commented on how INCREDIBLE you ALL were in this one!!
My gosh, after listening to this, I just graduated from high school; but I just remembered that was 47 years ago.😢
So peaceful. I'm so grateful that I'm hearing these precious people share their talents with us. Foxes and Fossils are a treasure that cannot be duplicated.
The guy singing lead was on point and the harmonies were sublime. Great job.

Those "Arouuuunnddd the world" phrases and how he lifts at the phrase end! What breath control. Super technique.
I'm going to go work today, play golf this afternoon, come home this evening, mix a drink ,put on my headphones and feel the comfort of Foxes and Fossils singing a song that I have listened to a thousand times. This is a good day.
I'm tired of trying to tell the world how great this little band is. Every song, every note in tune. It's criminal!!

No auto tune. Irrelevant with this talented bunch.
The immense beauty of this song surpasses almost all others: the lyrics soar, and each verse is fresh. The sea/life allegory is truth, and the melody and phrasing just wrings emotion from my soul. What a priviledge to be able to master such a treasure.
I wish I could push the thumbs up more than once…given how many times I’ve come back to watch this beautiful cover.

Darwin, your voice is like the perfect blend of Steven Stills' and Jimmy Buffett's versions of this tune
I'm sitting in a boat in the middle of a quiet lake watching the sunset and listening to foxes and fossils do southern cross - paradise
Some analyst is looking at CSN videos and wondering why the spike today. It's because we all go listen to the original and then come back to F&F who does it better than the original. Well done Darwin.

Excellent. A "winner" indeed. A song about a man losing his wife, losing his sailboat and gaining the beauty and forgiveness of the Lord that we all need to gain. Beautiful song.
So magnificent - these musicians truly understand the powerful emotional core of this song. Their perfect harmony makes anyone's heart sing again.

I always have loved Darwin's unique voice, very folksy like Gordon lightfoot. Your band is something of a miracle, to bring together so many completely different sounds and styles of vocals, and still come up with such unity. A lot of people appreciate what you are doing, especially after listening to modern r and b or pop.

Me too, as I finish listening to it for the 3rd time... chores can wait. :)
This is the CSN song that turned me on to F&F's. In early 2018 I was listening to the CSN version and F&F's Suite Judy Blues Eyes showed up in my recommended list. Not particulary fond of covers, I decided to give it a listen and was immediately blown away with the harmonies and Darwin's and Scott's guitar playing. Needless to say I ended up going down a rabbit hole, went to Tim's channel, listened to the rest of the songs that he had posted and subscribed to the channel. Later I went to the website to order the 2 CD's and the DVD. At the time the DVD was out-of-stock so I waited until it was available again and placed my order. I received my confirmation and a note on the website said Tim was on a cruise and the order would be fulfilled when Tim returned.. Listening to the CD's and watching the DVD I was not disappointed, except for the fact they were not performing anymore. I was pleasantly surprised when Chase, Sammie and Maggie put out the "What Song Will They Cover Next" video in April 2019. Now if they just overcome all the obstacles and do a live performance.

I first saw C,S,N in Portland,Or in I think it was 1972. Guess what? Darwin and the other F&F have them beat. You guys impress me greatly. Keep up the joy. Thanks
seriously, they have a knack for perfection. I've always been drawn to Nash's voice, when I listen to CSN it's what stands out. I guess I don't have to tell you that on a song like this, it's Sammy that amazes me
The harmony of the “Ooooooo’s” got me in my chest
I love and appreciate everyone in this superb band, and especially Maggie’s beautiful smile as she sings! 💕
