Zkye, is an extremely charismatic and talented singer. With every song she sings, with every jam, there's a piece of heart that she leaves in the song, and that song becomes hers. I think that if she tried older repertoire, e.g. Tina Turner - Honky Tonk Women, or something like that, we would discover these old songs again. This is just my opinion, but it immediately reminded me of it. Zkye, you are extraordinary. If I lived closer, I would invite myself to your rehearsal to listen to it live :)
I totally agree! Not to take anything away from the rest of the band who are all phenomenal musicians, but Damien generally goes unnoticed in the back, despite his amazing chops and musicality. He deserves a bit more of the limelight. Having said that, kudos to Zkye for nailing this song. Melissa Ethridge is another underrated rocker and musician, and Zkye has the perfect voice and attitude for that. I never get enough of her voice
This is absolutely fantastic. What a brilliant band performance and what a vocal, not only has Zkye got an amazing voice with great character, tone, and range, she’s a great singer, her delivery, story telling and inflection is superb! I’ve been a big Melissa Etheridge fan for years, and I like this as much as the original version.
Oh Darren, what was going through your mind when this exploded in your studio ? Bloody hell , it must have been like being punched in the guts by Mike Tyson , being in the same room as Zkye while this was going down ....man , you've gotta be bloody well ecstatic about how this turned out ....100 million views wouldn't do it justice. You guys have made my day again and I can't thank you enough.
It's quite obvious all musicians involved with SingIt Live are skilled, their performance is top notch every time. Which is a great (and required) foundation but what sets SingIt Live videos always at least a notch above other really great videos is - Darren's mixing. It's so good, so likeable, so pleasant to ears that it's simply in order to re-mention it once in a while. After all this time, I'm still impressed.
People don't sing like that with so much passion and feeling/expression unless they are alive inside. Zyke is alive. She has it going on inside and she can express it. This was outstanding. And of course the band was rocking as usual.
Zkye's voice is not only amazing but she takes on the persona of the original artist every time. She must study their videos and perfect all the flaws. Just awesome!!
Has there been a better song choice for this remarkable artist? Right in Zkye's wheel-house and nothing other than awesome with song interpretation 👌👏🙏🎤🎶
I always look forward to the SIL releases. The performances are always outstanding and it’s always an added bonus when I see Zkye. I could listen to her sing the phone book, she is such a talented vocalist.
That was a pure work of art! Darren you continue to up your game each and every week. Zyke, your powerhouse voice is truly mind blowing!!! #SingItLive #Producernerd #zykecompson-harris422 #CraftyMusicMan #ShaunHolton #Bassgoose
Oh wow guys! Another fav so far! Absolutely love Melissa Etheridge and that was my fav song of hers! Brilliant the lot of ya! ❤ Saturdays made better by SIL 😊
Apart from just the standout renditions of every song, these videos just add to the experience. The static shot that lets us see everyone nailing their part keeps me coming back to re watch regularly. Great job @producernerd for the video work in addition to the sounds 👏👏
OMG what a performance. Zkye has jumped to another level. tight tight tight band , gotta just mention the growl from the Goose Jazz melts paint. the entire production but especially the way Daz captures the sonics ... that was a master class
Zkye always is amazing, this song today I loved , congratulations for your job Singit live and to give for us the best songs ❤❤❤❤from Brasil São Paulo 👏 ❤️ 👏 ❤️ 👏 ❤️ 👏 ❤️
Congratulations to Sing It Live for your perfect song, as always. I'm from a generation that grew up with this music, and now your versions brighten my moments. Greetings from Spain!
Tons of energy from the guitars and Damo tore up that bass! Drums were in the pocket. Singing and vocals are all spot on. Great rendition!! God bless from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 🙏
Oh. My. Goodness!! What a powerful and electrifying performance! Zkye, you ROCKED it! And the band was OUTSTANDING! And, I loved the cuts to the instrument close-ups as well!! Well Done!
Don’t know the song or the artist but can’t go wrong with Zkye on vocals, damo, crafty, Mario, Shaun and of course the bloke playing keys. Can’t remember his name 😂. Loved it!
The year was 1988, I was rocking the best long hair In Campbelltown, slaying checkout chicks at Kmart Firle and Tracy Chapman and Melissa Etheridge were taking the world by storm 👌
Zyke can bring the best out of any song! She brings that raw emotion and she turns it into magic!! I love the way she performs! Great job by the whole band! Keep them coming Darren! Zyke maybe a little matte finish on the nails too!!😂😂 You’re phenomenal!!
Zkye you are outstanding just love all the songs you do.. Darren you know how to pick the right stuff every week, the musicians are amasing, you all look like you are having the best time its infectious
From the Great White North, wow Sing it Live! y-all ore so well polished; great job and I concur, better than I remember. Nice rich acoustic and lead, which leads to the richness of sound. I'm amazed that a five piece plus vocalist can put out such incredible sound. I will replay this quite a number of times.
Brilliant. Thank you for giving us this masterclass in how to perfect a very emotional song. It had that "live" production feel to it along with being raw and punchy. There is some talent in that little basement for sure 👏
HOLY F#CK ! This woman can sing . Not only can she sing she stays true to the song but some how makes it all her own . Absolutely floored how good she is . I still watch her " You ought to know " performance over and over . Great sound on the acoustic too . Does not sound like those horrible plugged in guitars . You guys nailed it as always . FFS some one give this women a record contract !
Melissa Etheridge has a rasp and depth to her voice that is hard to match. This is a good cover, Zyke puts her emotional stamp.on it, big fan of Z's vocals.
Zkye, es gibt nur einen Menschen auf der Welt der diesen Song genauso gelebt hat wie du, meine beste, und das ist die Künstlerin Melissa selber. Und wieder Gänsehaut pur ❤❤❤ Leute das war der absolute Kracher von Zkye, also mich hat es vergangene Nacht wieder Sprachlos gemacht 🎼💙💞🎶👌👍 Vielen Dank ZKYE und SINGIT LIVE 🫶🫶🇩🇪
WOW! Melissa Etheridge is so underrated as a performer and singer/songwriter and so difficult to capture the soul and emotion she brings to a song. But you did it. One of the best SIL performances led by an incredible performance by Zkye. PLEASE, PLEASE,PLEASE try another ME song with my vote going to “I’m the Only One”. Bravo!
Dont know too much about music. But this I know - this time Damien & Zkye did their mutual passion-performance again. Even Darren noticed. As sooo many times, awesome.
WOWIE! Don't know the song or the artist but what I do know is that Zyke & the SIL crew of amazing musicians knocked it out of the proverbial musical park once again! 👍👍🎤🎤🎸🎸🎹🎹🥁🥁👏👏
Incredible Zkye. The guitars are unbelievable. The drums and bass are in the pocket. Darren, you nailed it again with this selection. The energy is wild in the basement. Keep the hits coming, Sing It Live
Skye, You Rocked it!!! Mellissa is one of my Favorite Female vocalist!! Love the Acoustic, though I would have preferred a 12 string!! Thanks to All!!!
A great sounding 12 string (with a pickup) is very hard to find and I couldn't put a condenser microphone on it because it would hear way too much drums etc. That said, Shaun's 'cowstick' is a lovely sounding guitar and played perfectly in this performance. I'm more than happy with the sound and vibe
