Check out this fantastic cover of Tracy Chapman's “Fast Car” by this exceptional artist. This song was written in 1988. Tracy Chapman was an incredible artist that people still love to this day. What a talent!

“Fast Car” was one of her most popular songs, alongside “One Reason,” which is arguably her best and most popular song above all of the others. Her songs are often covered by artists such as the one in this video, and they are always extremely popular in karaoke performances for sure!

Chapman’s album that “Fast Car” appeared on was a self-titled album, “Tracy Chapman.” The performance that really put her on the map was when she appeared and performed for Nelson Mandela’s seventieth birthday. After this performance, her song became a mega hit. It ended up earning this amazing performer two nominations for the coveted Grammy Award. She was nominated for “Record of the Year” and “Song of the Year.” This is an incredible accomplishment. The next year in 1989, she was nominated for even more awards, including the “Video Music Award” and “Best Female Video.”

Chapman had a very unique sound to her vocals that was very new and fresh in her time. She was different, and that is what made her so memorable. The artist in this video could certainly one day follow in Tracy Chapman’s footsteps being as talented as she is. It is truly a beautiful performance, and there is no doubt that her audience feels the same way. While we may not know any details about this woman’s personal life, we hope that she is pursuing a career in music. She has a soft voice that is very relaxed and melodious for sure. She does not have the uniqueness that Chapman has in her voice, but there is certainly something special there. However, to become a mega celebrity and to be as successful as Chapman, she may have to find that piece of her music and vocals that makes her stand out from the rest.

Today’s music industry is not what it used to be. It is much more difficult nowadays to become a well known and super successful artist. This is partly attributed to the fact that most people do not still purchase CD’s and albums in that nature. Instead, streaming has become the new “in thing.”

When you can go to YouTube and see and listen to the exact song that you want to listen to without having to actually pay for it, why wouldn’t you? Of course you would. However, that is what is creating such an enormous problem for the artists in the music industry. This creates an especially difficult and large obstacle to young artists and new artists who are trying to break into the business. The woman in this video may be encountering the same difficulties if she is trying to start or maintain a career in the music industry.

Whatever the case may be, it is evident that this woman does have a natural talent, and we wish her all the luck in the world to be successful!
