This is type of song when you are at a roadtrip and everyone's asleep but you listen to this while wind blows.

[@dinavibes6533]

Beautiful

Damn lol

I fell in love with your comment ☺️

Omg YES 😃

[@TannahMaeMoody]

I give them props for shooting this during a specific dusk time frame.

[@BrunetteGiant]

i was thinking the same thing! they must've done a couple of takes thinking they had the best sunset lighting, only to go again a couple of times just to be sure. that lens flare tho :D

[@TannahMaeMoody]

@@BrunetteGiant yeah! All the way through too. I was waiting to see a cut to a different sky, and it never happened. Impressive. :)

[@lindsaysedgwick]

the "golden hour" I think is what it's called. Very forgiving lighting ☺️

Had no idea they still produced music. I'm not disappointed.

Get into it sis. Check out their album "We Don´t Stop" on spotify it´s nothing but bops.

[@henrycoburn607]

like are they not embarrassed 😭

[@xxElyonxx]

i love the shot of aly looking back at the camera singing "with you" and thinking about how her husband directed this video :')

[@Vix_Vi]

That made me go "Aww" out loud, that is such a cute fun fact.

[@xilefeniotan]

People in the comments been sleeping on Ten Years and Sanctuary. These two mini Albums include some of the sweetest pop music i’ve heard in years.

[@djm4854]

My thoughts exactly! I never screeched so loudly as soon as Take Me was released. That's when Aly & AJ were "back."

[@arturoajs]

Promises is their best track in a long long time

[@MoreMusicForManu4]

Promises 😍😍😍😍

talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, eat it, give birth to it.

[@artieche9]

Agreed

[@KhushiJain-fg7dd]

Our life just needs oneee 😂

[@flipdedo]

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe the first dance. ❤

[@djm4854]

There's something so wistful about Aly & AJ's videos that give a whole new meaning to their songs. You'd think this was a sweet lullaby of love, but it's also bittersweet and haunting. It's like AJ is imagining the ghosts of her sister and her love, who aren't actually there @5:12. The memory of them only holds so strong before they disappear into the setting sun. Aly & AJ are such amazing expressionists of art, it's unreal.

[@mrs.g2501]

Yes!! That's a perfect explanation for this video!😍

[@aeris44]

Oh my god i didnt think that. I had caught how AJ in the very first shot looks upset . Then the last sequence is her doing the exact same thing. I thought it was that her relationship wasn’t what it was but shes caught up in the romance of it. But this is also a really good take cuz “Its been forever since I saw you” and those additional lyricsdo really have deeper meaning of longing. And she isnt wearing the same clothes afterwards, so it definitely is a memory. And alcoholism is straight up in the lyrics. So she drinks to remember. Mind just blown.

[@SassyL62]

literally me rn living w the ghost of my mother 😭😭🤍❤️‍🔥💔what do i do. don’t ever want to say goodbye

[@clary2659]

aj and josh dancing is the cutest thing ever :´)

[@adamletavish9062]

what a way to end 2020: Aly & AJ making a comeback

[@juliak9085]

but they were still making music all that time....

[@Skimmylou]

They’ve been back lol

[@anotherplanet000]

Comeback? They released two other songs in 2020. Attack Of Panic and Joan Of Arc on the Dance Floor, plus two fantastic EP's not too long ago.

[@clawdmoviemonster]

They were still here, they just got more recognizing these days and I hope they will have more

[@h.c.8731]

They started making music under the name Aly and AJ again 3 or 4 years ago......

[@kaydiezee1913]

Everyone is hyped over the renewal of potential breakup song but these women have some serious talent in this whole album.

[@nyancatsLOL]

It makes me happy that both of their SOs are part of this project.

[@daknaf12]

It's the Aly strutting across the lawn as the guitar kicks in for me.

[@lastshadowman]

These girls have never made a bad song, so underrated.

[@jdchy6181]

i never realised how young they were that even aft all these years they are only around 30

[@shaunasugar]

As someone that prefers not to listen to country.... This is the perfect mix of cowgirl and inner city gal that I NEEDED.

[@xxxmochibaby]

This isn’t even country though... the aesthetic is country

[@shaunasugar]

@@xxxmochibaby 😂 guess I’ll explain myself. I didn’t say it was country music silly I said it was the mix of cowgirl and inner city that I liked, even though I don’t really like country music. I would already expect country music to have country aesthetic. It’s a good song and cute video, and I like that they incorporated country vibes.

[@monicabelladonna4626]

Yessss, when I read your comment I rememberd about Holly Golightley but not like in the film!!!Like she described in the book, that's the correct image

[@nonalolagirl]

Listen to True by Spandau Ballet. Slow Dancing is 80s synth pop/rock and folk inspired, maybe you'd like some 80s artists like New Order and The Cure

[@tsovloj6510]

@@nonalolagirl There's been a lot of New Order happening with these two Ten Years onward. Also some Phil Collins.
