As a purebred Southern man from the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina, y'all nailed this song !! F211 is the best cover band out there !! Keep up the awesome work, and thanks for doing this song !!🤘❤❤🤘

Great rendition

I should ask my health insurance to pay for my Fist To Eleven patreon subscription as their great covers, like this one here, are keeping me sane in this crazy world 😀

simply amazing

It looks like it's going to be a cold and rainy day in Japan. Have a good day ☔＆You're Cool Band🎸 I've been loving Lynyrd Skynyrd 🎸

Happy 7th birthday to this great RU-vid channel

That guitar player is Awesome!!!! The whole band is Awesome!!

The vocals are so awesome, and the band is from another world. Amazing😍😍

I was very fortunate to have been able to be taken to see Lynyrd Skynyrd Live at the Fox Theater in 1976 in Atlanta. They became my all time favorite band. It was my second concert ever seen and a huge improvement from the Donnie and Marie concert which was my first. Surprisingly I remember the 1976 concert. Its Surprising because I was only 6 years old. I wouldn't see them again until 2000 at the Fox. Three nights before I left for basic training and 22 years after the Oct 20 1977 plane crash. Excellent cover!

As a Southerner, this is a great cover to hear!

Got a tear outta me for sure. Amazing group of people came together to form this band.

I am impressed. As an old codger, I have almost universally rejected covers because they never, ever live up to the original… until now! You nailed it, crushed it, devastated it. You produced not only the sound of the original LS recording but you brought the soul of the song. Congratulations. I’m a fan now and will be keeping an eye on you. We’ll done. And as we say down south… ddaayyyammmmmm!!!!

Such an extra ordinary band, keep up the good works guys, be an example to others, god bless, mabuhay! from philippines

Respect 😮

totally💚💖 awesome

Bass is crushing it

As a musician myself my band KIKSTART have practiced Simple Man with many local artists here in Fountain Inn SC. Thank you F211 for covering Lynyrd Skynyrd for us! Love y'all to pieces! From Danny Battle President of Kikstart Band and Rhythm Guitarist

Your passion shows in your voice, its beautiful, and unique.

SOA Material 🤘🤘

I'm from Brazil and I got married with this song. Amazing music and voice.

This song is so special to me because my mom told me she always thought of me when she listened to this song when she was pregnant

I've been a Lynyrd Skynyrd fan since the 70's and this band done this song justice. The guitar was spot on and the vocals are fantastic. Great job

Lyrics 🎙 Mama told me when I was young "Come sit beside me, my only son And listen closely to what I say And if you do this it'll help you Some sunny day" Oh, yeah Oh, take your time, don't live too fast Troubles will come and they will pass You'll find a woman, yeah, and you'll find love And don't forget son there is someone up above And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can? Forget your lust for the rich man's gold All that you need is in your soul And you can do this, oh, baby, if you try All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can? Oh, yes, I will Boy, don't you worry, you'll find yourself Follow your heart and nothing else And you can do this, oh, baby, if you try All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can? Baby, be a simple, be a simple man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man

First to eleven you rock 🤟🤟🤟🤟

i love the drums

It's absolutely adorable and it suits Audra's voice as well.

Amazing performance all of you!!👏👏❤️❤️🎸🎸🎤🎤🥁🥁🎶🎶

I was in high school in Florida when the band's plane crashed. I can still remember the report by CBS TV news anchor Walter Cronkite and the way he mis-pronounced their name. I never did get to see them in concert. This excellent cover brings back memories of my 'Southern Rock' listening teen years!

This is awesome!!!!!

Another superb rendition of a classic rock song.

Aqui no Brasil curtindo essa banda . 🇧🇷

MAGNIFIQUE

This son still makes me cry. Makes me cry every time and makes me think of my mom... toughest fucking woman I ever knew. RIP.

Une très belle chanson , magnifique reprise 😉👍🇨🇵

The guys on the strings are exceptionally talented. Right up there with the best. Vocals are great too.

Exceptional band

Love the southern flavor 🍻

As a roadie of many many years, I've heard many a cover of Skynyrd songs. This is one of the bests ones I've heard in a long time. good job.

Muy prolijos felicitaciones desde el fin del mundo mi hermosa e intensa ARGENTINA

Amazed by how much your talent shows through more with every song I listen to, just when I think I’ve found your best song you release another that is better than before!

Not just her voice is amazing. The band is spot on all of the time.

That is simplicity in a complicated kind of way I need a simple woman ✨🌻😇♾️

Seeing the band playing makes me believe that rock roll still lives in young people. 🤘

This is my all time favorite song!! Great job!!!❤

9 out of 10 for a cover and voice. The drums, well after listening to 4 songs now, Shoot me.

My favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song. You guys nailed this song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guitar work here is amazing lead and bass

Essa música na voz dela é perfeita, e a banda dá um show!!! TOP!!!😍😍😍

Perfect!!! This is the best among the best!!!

Love this so much! Gonna need this to be on the set y’all do in Cali!!

Oh my god I’m so fucking happy you guys did this song.

She has a Midas touch..... Gold*👏🥰

I'm only in my 20's but all I listen to is mostly 70's and 80's rock (Just what I was raised on, never really liked other genres much), and am a fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd and other bands of the time, and have heard many covers of this song, and I gotta say that my favorite I had heard was by Shinedown... until I heard this. F211 is my favorite cover band I have ever heard, I have yet to listen to one of their covers and not love it. Way to go Audra and the band! Keep it up!

Non riesco a piangere...... le lacrime arrivano a metà strada, che canzone stratosferica 🇮🇹💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Some of Audra's movements hinted at channeling Joe Cocker. Great to see. Those guitar riffs sent chills down my spine.

This is one of my all time favorite songs because it reminds me of my parents and my upbringing. I’m an old man. I have to say this version rivals the original and that’s saying a lot! Very talented young men and the lead singers voice is incredible! I’m so impressed!

Bravo

Would be nice to listen to your version of Eric Clapton's "wonderful tonight"

you don’t see this kind of talent every day

Orsume how the drummer made hitting the symbols sound like drums , more like Millie Vanilie to me.

saya jadi teringat always somewhere

Great job on this one ! 🤓

Great song choice so good to hear new talent playing Skynyrd's music in this generation 50+ years later and it proves great music and great songs never die they are simply reborn again and again with new life breathed into them..I applaud this fine talent on their good music taste and a cover well done!!👍✌❤🎵

Bomb. Totally

now just by the way, subtle not subtle man crush on the guitarist who smashed the solo. Im a noob guitarist at best even all these years later. this is the first song I could kind of nail all the way through. Like I already mentioned, love how this was more of what you'd call a carbon cover. It keeps all of the pure emotion. Kudos to you and your band, cant wait to see what you bring in the future

Found the original 3 years ago during a divorce.... Made me cry then... Made me cry again... Good cover.

You guys should come to iowa irishfest

Interpretação muito boa! Uma das melhores que ouvi. Parabéns a banda!

First show I ever saw, skynyrd, montrose & the outlaws. You are quickly becoming my favorite cover band. Looking forward to your own creations. Congratulations on getting the sound right!

great job you all

be a simple kind of man ... be something you love and understand ...

Wow , what a band , great singer and music , at 75 still like and love rock .

Love this song. And now love the cover version even better. Exceptional job!

1st 😎 Yeah!!! Congrats for 7 years of this amazing channel!!! I'm a simple man and I only need a few things to be happy, what includes your great covers!!! Lynyrd Skynyrd was a welcome surprise today!!! Love y'all!!! Keep rocking!!! ❤️

Great song...

Awesome ❤

this music in RockBand track pack vl2, is fantastic experience.

Wow this band is fantastic

nailed it

Some of the best vocals yet! Audra, Matt, Sam and Ryan rocked this one out!

An absolute banger, this is the best cover of this song that I have ever heard in my entire life. 11/10 would recommend

it's First to eleven time!!

Mama told me..and remember ,there IS som❤wun,up above

Awesome Cover Band!!! Love the Chica Rocker, I'm 69 still Rock n Roll!!! Keep Rocking!!! Don't Stop!!! Rock n Roll is King!!!!!

My apple music wrap-up says you're my top artist, top song was Carry On, Wayward Son (39 replays)...time well spent, says I!

Your voice has become so warm sounding.

I'll be honest here. When I first started watching halocene, Lauren babic, and the others like this band that work together, I was immediately drawn to Lauren and violet with their dark hair and deeper voices. Slowly, I found myself watching more and more of first to eleven, and I realized this entire band is awesome. Not just the girlnextdoor rocker chick lead singer who is now my super celebrity crush, but the drummer, bassist and guitar players. Your music is awesome and this cover sealed it for me. New favorite band. If I had to request a song, it would be a tie between lonely day by system of a down, or No Leaf Clover by metallica. Preferably the latter.

When she goes a lottle 'off script' in the second half it was just magic.

Where have I been, you guys are great and my favorite Skynyrd song, nicely done. You have a new follower. ❤
