Some things we know to be true.
No life escapes the bitter wind.
Everybody wants to have a home and someone to come home to.
Like The Boss says : Don’t make no difference what nobody says – Ain’t nobody like to be alone.
Two can easily do what’s so hard to be done by one.
Elizabeth and Darcy.
Tristan and Iseult.
Rochester and Jane.
Scott and Zelda.
Odysseus and Penelope.
Anne and Gilbert.
Everybody’s got a hungry heart.
Every wandering bark is in search of a guiding star.
And, once found, will sail, unafraid, even to the edge of doom.
Everyone yearns to find that voice they were meant to harmonise with.
Someone, a confidante, who knows just where you keep your better side.
Someone who forgives your falters.
Mere speech cannot wield such matters.
Turn to Song.
To Harmony.
Find someone you can sing out loud with in your own true voice.
Oh, oh, Emmylou needs Gram.
And Johnny needs June.
Sing Darling.
Sing with me.
Sing with me.
Sing with me.
Two Sisters.
Johanna and Klara Soderberg.
Voices entwined.
The mystery of unspoken sibling connection.
Other worldly gleanings.
Finding an alchemy unrevealed to the single voice.
A tribute to the voices that called their own.
At 14 and 16 discovering the longing and the keen in, ‘Love Hurts’ and, ‘Thousand Dollar Wedding’.
Gram and Emmylou.
Johnny and June.
Johanna and Klara.

Scarlett and Rhett.
Fred and Ginger.
Lancelot and Guinevere.
Beatrice and Benedict.
Nick and Nora.
Carol and Therese.
Hadrian and Antoninus.
Menakhem and Sheyne.
Boundless as the Sea.
Look, Love and Sigh.
Walking out among the ancient trees to lie down among the flowers.
Face to face with the sky.
Of the very instant that I saw you.
Everyone’s got a hungry heart.
Sing with Joy.
Find the Magic.
Things grow if you bless them with patience.
Fermina and Florentino.
Virginia and Vita.
Robert and Elizabeth.
Bogie and Bacall.
Rick and Ilsa.
Play it one Time.
Play it one Time.
Sing Darling.
Sing with me.
Sing with me.
Sing with me.
Sing this one for Emmylou.
Sing this one for the ghost of Gram.
Sing this one for Johnny and June.
Sing this one for Emmylou.
The Immortal Jukebox 
I love First Aid Kit. As you say, there’s something about the closeness of sisters singing together, the Webb Sisters have it too – just try their version of Leonard Cohen’s If It Be Your Will! I’ve played the video with Emmylou in it many times since I first saw it, shared on Twitter and Facebook: it’s a lovely piece of music.
