I don't know what's in the water in Australia but there is no question that the country has produced two outstanding cover bands. 🇦🇺

We're only 26Million, so to even get a look in on the world stage, we need to try hard to be good enough. These 2 bands are world class....but the best thing about Australians is we don't take ourselves too seriously.... which is why they are genuinely enjoying themselves, as ther craft another tribute to loads of our favorite songs.

Doesn't matter I still love her and her music. I have listened to her for 50 years and still never get tired of it. James Taylor was at one time the luckiest man alive...

Carly made this a million-selling record - let's get this fantastic version to a million views on KZread!

She is perfection ❤

The first 5 seconds are worth the price of admission.

I love this song❤ Zkye, that was amazing🔥🔥🔥 This song was perfect with your voice. Love this❤ Tzan 🎸🔥 Darren, awesome song choice this week 🔥❤

Another stellar job by the Sing It Live family! Wonderful harmonies!

The Zkye is the Queen of Soul. 100% into the music, and the soul comes through loud and clear.

I'm here in tears this song reminds me now of the now distant time of my carefree youth. good times.

No one constructs a song better than @Producernerd - the way that Zkye builds the story through another stunning vocal and the blended vocals reach the crescendo is something to behold - as is Tzan's execution of another slick lick - not hard to believe that this collaboration keeps delivering given the talent that gathers each week in Darren's basement 👏👏👏🎤🎶👌

Lead is excellent!

What a fantastically talented team of musicians and a very special singer. Turn off the video and you would immediately think that Carly Simon was singing this. Zkye is an incredibly versatile singer.

3 minutes past midnight here in 🇬🇧. And I knew who was going to be doing lead vocals as soon as I saw the song title. Great version and the harmonies on the chorus are fantastic!

WOW, Zkye has such a strong personality AND great talent. Love her!!!

Well you folks have done it again. Love me some Carly Simon. This lady can sing...

When I heard the bass and piano intro (and on a real piano!) I couldn't believe this wasn't the original recording. This song tells an interesting story and the lyrics are every bit as important as the vocals. The singer is amazing, she handles both with polish and conviction. The guitar solo was even gutsier than on the original and that wah wah, what a nice touch! Drums, bass and rhythm guitar were in perfect sync and the tinkling of the upright piano keys throughout gave it the sort of authenticity that distinguishes a great performance from an average one. Terrific listening experience!

Darren and company doing the Lord's work

What a perfect song choice for Skye! Mind you, there is nothing she cannot sing!! I can never say it enough, you are all so fantastically talented! Thank you for the music SIL ❤

YAHOOOO YAHOOOO CHEERS TO THIS AMAZING BAND...AMERICA LOVES YOU ALL..Thank you Darren and gang..😊

Zyke is a goddess. Perfect song. Great background vocals. Simple sweet guitar solo and the thundering tom toms. Big wide bass guitar notes. NIce attack on the piano keys. You "guys" made my day here in Phoenix AZ Thank you.

Better than the original?!?!?! The transparent piano is so cool.. the vocals.. out of this world... Holy cow.. just awesome

This is absolutely out of this world. Zkye is amazing, Tzan wonderful guitar work. Damien, Shaun, Mario,Darren awesome. This is better than the original. Week after week you keep raising the bar. Best cover band in the world. Thank you for bring us the best music every week. .

Zkye was the perfect choice for this song. She maintained the familiarity of the original while infusing it with her unique vocal style, bringing a fresh and captivating interpretation. Many cover bands struggle to achieve this balance. A+

"Daughter of a gun" Zkye nails the look, the vox, everything. Harmonies and arrangement, especially piano is epic. Love it.

Greatest singer ever! Not Carly, but Zkye! Carly is great though for sure.

Such a soulful voice did the song justice great job

Son of a gun...that was excellent !

Isn't a Friday night without new songs dropping. Thanks from Canada for yet another banger!

Brilliant cover of this song, loved the original but this is as good ❤

Marvelous. Very talented bunch of musicians. I wait for Fridays every week to watch your video.

ZKYE is a STAR 🌟 Through my eyes you all are & together SIL shines bright above the others. IF there are any flaws I'm not seeing them & I've followed MUSIC longer than I care to admit 👵 😆 Here's to FRIDAYS Everyone ❤

All the nuances... the syncopation... is there. It's a cover, but it has that Sing It Live spin. I'm glad that Darren chose the analog piano for this 1972 standard. Everyone is excellent, of course. Zkye doesn't try to emulate Carly, she puts her unique art into the vocal. Thanks to Carly Simon for keeping the secret for so long, then finally revealing that at least part of this song is indeed about Warren Beatty. This Texan looks forward to our weekly musical lollies from Adelaide!

I loved what Carly said when she revealed that. She said the first verse is about Warren, but he is indeed so vain that he thinks the entire song is about him! 🤣

Such a good track. Perfect voice from Zkye. Shaun with his apricot scarf - I didn't get the clue, just thought he had a hickey! Mario smashes it out. Tzan added the second layer of the chorus vocally. Damo just swings in happiness watching his love sing. Darren is just Darren all over. Harley isn't very vain. Beautiful. Kudos from Matty x

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hit 'LIKE' after the first 5 seconds of the clip - saw the title and Zkye's name - knew it would be another gem !! Brilliant !!

Mind blowing.👌

Just as I'm going into my Friday night for the upcoming weekend, Sing it Live always sets the tone... This one takes me way back to the mid 70's. Y'all do this to me almost every weekend with all these great old songs from my past, I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas in 1958. There wasn't a better time to be born than in the 50's. Peace out! 🍻❤️✌️Annette

Danny Kortchmar on guitar, Russ Kunkel on percussion, Leland Sklar on bass! Love it!

Outstanding! Just heard this song on the radio three times last week! So well done, team! Greetings from NYC!

This is so amazingly good! Spectacular job everyone!

Just got off work here in Texas....perfect timing....this performance was absolute gold !

My favourite Carly Simon song - and this version by those Adelaide Aces in SingItLive have basically resurrected an old tune, brought it back to life and kicked it out into the world, where it belongs once more. An excellent arrangement and superb strummin' from Darren & Tzan - and the singin' isn't too shabby either. This song always reminds me of a lady that I bumped into one Christmas Eve, long ago in Bournemouth, when we were both laden with bags & shopping stuff - so we shared a taxi and...

Perfect!!!

Zkye on vocal. No words! Excellent presentation.

Stellar performance! In order to "copy" an original, you have to be PERFECT on tone/note/tempo. This went above and beyond being "perfectionist". You added the IT factor. ❤❤❤ thanks for making the world enjoyable.

Carly simon the top. Yeah ✌️ 🇮🇹 ✌️

So many things to love about this. Darren, acoustic piano was the right choice for this, and you've got the pickup mic(s) dialed in just right. The EG tone on the solo parts is perfect. The beginning bass riff had me rewinding and relistening. Tight, and I mean tight vocals. Carly Simon is a legend, but I have to say, this cover does the original more than justice. Bravo SIL.

Miss Zkye loved you at the concert and you absolutely killed this❤

Again and again,wonderful Greetings from Brazil

there are 2 bestcover bands in Australia,,one of them is SING IT LIVE,,CONGRATULATIONS

I'm sure Carly herself would be impressed with this. Amazing performance. Love listening to your covers.

A+++

Guys (LADY) I grew up in this era with these songs and that was absolute 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

LOVED THIS! Thanks for covering the great Carly Simon!

When you SINGIT LIVE ITS ABSOLUTELY TRUE because it feels like you have front row seats thank you 🙏 so much for the wonderful music 🫵❤️🇺🇸🫵.

Fabulous!

Yet another golden tune knocked out of the proverbial musical park by the SIL crew of incredible musicians! Zyke's singing is off the charts and so is that outfit she is wearing! BRAVO! 👍👍🎤🎤🎸🎸🎹🎹🥁🥁👏👏

Well, "Walk the walk and talk the talk". 😎..And you certainly did!! ✌Brilliant performance!! ❤

Love It Live.

I've watched this more than 30 times already,, 😮😊❤

Zkye! The talent with those pipes! This was better than the original - a classic remade into 2024! Love love love!

What can you say, just exceptional.Zkye has an amazing range We are watching Glastonbury here in the UK.Boy could the boys and girls of Adelaide show the acts a thing or two.

Amazing job everyone. Love Zkye's voice!

As soon as Zyke started to utter that first word i couldn't hit the like button fast enough, absolutely so much epic talent in such a small room.

WOW! I suggested a Carly Simon song and Sing It Live responds! Love it! Tzan - what an incredible lead guitarist! Zyke - excellent lead vocals and outstanding backup vocals from everyone! Now I dare you to do a Bubble Gum song. Crafty can sing it.

Yet another fantastic vocalist combined with a great choice to go grittier on the sound. Excellent job.

Really excellent everyone!

You sounded so much like carley Simon. Great song and great job.

Zkye's voice from the get-go everytime "goosebumps".

Great performance and I love seeing someone play the classic piano. Old is gold!

Damn!! What a beautiful and haunting tribute to Carly!! Cheers!!

Zkye always gives a great performance no matter the song, and a very nice little solo there from Tzan too. Great job from all of you.

One word......... "Brilliant" nuff said!

It's incredible how every song they do sounds like the original bands

Well Done! One Of My Favorite Songs Ever! I Seen Carly Live Long Long Time A Go, Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another smashing track from these very very very talented musicians. And Zyke is is…….WOW 😊

This is by far the best cover version I have ever heard of this song.

Another amazing cover from all involved, my wife often has to listen to the new one each week while we are in the Kitchen and she often makes little comments about how close or far away from the original they are but this week she wasn't sure if it was actually a version by Carly Simon, so consider that high praise indeed. Musically brilliant and harmonies on point, so 👏👏👏to all and great choice of song

Close my eyes and I’m back in my Sophomore year in HS.. Thanks all! Brought back a lot of great memories!

I love this woman, her style and voice, every time i see and hear her, i dont need hear the original song

This has always been a guilty pleasure song of mine, and yiu guys really made it come alive!! Released just as Carly Simon celebrates her 81st birthday.

Didn’t even miss Mick Jagger’s vox in that mix! And that intro……wow!

Carly Simon has always been one of my favorites and you people did this song justice. Fantastic cover.

This is it. TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN! This is an identity presentation. I love every aspect. First of all Ringo Starr on rhythm is to die for. This is worldly cool on a eccentric scale that can not be outdone. This presentation is top of the mountain, it can not be outdone. I can be anywhere listening to this, and watching it the same. This has an Alanis and Glenn Ballard effect we hear and see from jagged little pill. It's barely a cover because there is so much personal touch. With this the basement does not exist. This is Bay Area in the '70s. An original presentation. There is story in the atmosphere leading up to this performance and after. Not in the basement, but in the spectrum of artists. The Aura is in time and the stars. The wheel in the sky. You captured it. Bravo 👏

Mind-blown version. Outstanding!! Now heard with fresh ears. Thank you!!😇🥰

You are all absolutely amazing 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
