Elephant - Sammy Copley (Original: Acoustic)

hey friends!! Back after taking a bit of a posting break over January. I recently started back in college after leaving for a year (!) so fair warning that my upload schedule may continue to be a bit haphazard lol. I hope you're all doing well & enjoy this song! It's one of my favourites I've ever written and I really love the fully produced version, so give that a listen too - sorry if my voice is a bit funny in this video! Winter always does a bit of a number on me. Lots of love!!!

- Sammy

I should be doing this for each of your songs - I get such joy from your words, your music and your performances. Be well, Sammy, and enjoy your return to school!

You have no idea the grin I got on my face when I got this notification, I was just relistening to the growing pains album a few minutes ago

[musicferret]

Here I am 2 years later, still listening, and deciding that this song has turned into one of my favourites. Thank you for it Sammy!

[hoagy_ytfc]

The "oooh" BVs about two minutes in - they're lovely :)

[valenirvana]

Listening to your voice feels like coming home and your lyrics give the feelings only classic songwriters do 🤍🐦

Though I love the produced version of Elephant, there is something about the sound of the acoustic guitar. Maybe it's the simplicity of the music that lends so much beauty to the song... But more than likely, it's just the way that Sammy expertly wields the acoustics guitar in concert with his voice. Just love this song !! tysmS !!

The bittersweet JOY this song brings me is unmatched

[ruggy-qkgq]

This song is really comforting. It reminds me of a person I know, so it makes me feel really safe like the song is hugging me.Thank you for sharing the acoustic version of this song it was really powerful to hear :)

This acoustic version is wonderful. It has some elements that I didn't notice in the version on Spotify. I very much enjoy both versions, but they are different. 🙂
And don't worry about your sparse postings. You more than make up for it with your beautiful voice and talent when you do post.
Please focus on and enjoy your time at college. We (your fans) will be here when you find time to post, no matter how rare or sporadic. 😉

Thanks so much. Brought a tear to an old dude eyes

[altwhitmann]

You ARE lovely :-) A fab version of this. I've played the EP an awful lot the last few weeks.

[irishhobo]

Love the harmonies sneaking in...lovely 🙂

[andrewbryan]

What is the tuning for this glorious song, Sammy? Also, is there an audio of this specific acoustic version available to purchase?

[ThePaoOfTooh]

Harmonies came in and I choked up. Now tears are warming my cheeks and soaking my shirt. You made a 29yr old father of 2 ugly cry in his living room. Well done. 🙏

This acoustic version sounds very pure and angelic ..and the Orginal version catching ..both versions beautiful in their own way..

[singingraven]

That's some vocals, Sammy! I missed you acoustic videos, there's so much passion and feeling in this one. Thank you

[brilliantcosmicspeck]

Absolutely love this acoustic version!

[rjwusher]

A blue and dreary Monday just became a happy one. Good to see you again, dear Sammy.

[mysteriomarvel]

Aww the famous finger snap..my day is complete now. What a talent..what a voice...what an artist. Would be interesting to hear you play an electric guitar for a different tonal palette. Keep creating and performing..youre an otherworldly talent....cheers!
