Fast Car covered by Foy Vance
I have always like Tracy Chapman's song Fast Car and I think that it is practically impossible to improve upon her studio version of that song. Buy I do love Ireland's Foy Vance and his cover of Fast Car is FANTASTIC.
You have to love Foy's guitar work. He is a very accomplished instrumentalist, no doubt. But that voice of his... holy cow. He sings directly from his soul. This is a skill that, while can be developed with years of study, some musicians just have it. I am sure I would well up hearing him sing happy birthday.
As an extra treat here is Foy Vance singing his own Bangor Town. AMAZING.....
