Tracy Chapman's 1988 signature hit "Fast Car", is trending because of a new cover done by Luke Combs. Both of these versions crossovered from their original genres, and hold special meanings. I discuss the influences, "Fast Car"'s acoustic arrangement, lyrics, and special debut performances that Tracy and Luke did during historical global occurrences.

Theme Song: "Dance Track", composed by Jessica Ann Catena
