"Child Bride" -- tribute to FLDS runaways

[Hobott]

two pretty talented sisters... So nice! Thanks!

[leleiskindofcool]

This is my favorite of all your songs.

[hashfromplan9]

why do the women whentrapped in FLDS dress so...corny? u kno its a cult when it looks like little house on the prairie lolz

[jimmyjubejube]

had this playing in my head while studying. thought i should let my ears hear it for real too.

[existentialistcat]

@jimmyjubejube :D

[thegorillasnake]

Did both of you write this? I saw the description wording and I thought it looked that way.

[existentialistcat]

@thegorillasnake Well I wrote the lyrics and stuff but we worked out how it would sound together.

[xpkjay]

I am a 19 year old girl from the FLDS I left after I turned 18.. this song means a lot.. brought me to tears!

[dirtybrokenglass]

aw. you're cute. 

[amberdawnlee1]

I'll be traveling to Phoenix and Colorado City throughout October. I would love to speak to anyone who has experiences surrounding polygamy on both sides of the issue, and significantly opinions on the "Lost boys" who were banished from their families. Please contact me if you know about this practice of excommunication, and would like to speak on camera to get the word out.

[LightBenderKev]

lovely! thank you for putting yourselves up and out there for the rest to experience! you play beautifully!

[Pawsz]

nothing can compare to this.

[Waizac]

Hey, is the audio up for download anywhere?

[garyemiller]

That was pretty !

[Tressco]

Oh, wow!

Intense little tune!

What an amazing, captivating voice your sister has (besides a great smile & beautiful eyes)!

Can’t stop listening...

...who’s the third voice...?

[Domzdream]

Good stuff.

[fincenMIB]

Thank You

Thomas Foust for your delusional twisted reality, you have demonstrated your power to graffiti another youtube page to pump up your deflated and worthless ego. No one wants your opinion! Get a life, homeless in San Diego aint it!

[entwood]

Beautiful creation Kim. :)

[gasto5]

Given the choice of either remaining with one of you two or the song, I'd distress at the decision.

[Decky11]

wow

[dyosalalalaful]

wow!im a fan now! :)

[9nesteg]

It's nice to see you care about people. I tend to agree with Voltaire: "The day we die the world is just as stupid and corrupt as the day we were born." The only progress is in technology. I still have trouble believing Bill Gates is an intp because he does not seem to be interested in theories. He seems to be some sort of EN_ _.

[ThoughtScientist]

Sweet harmonies. That's your sis on guitar?

[existentialistcat]

@ThoughtScientist Yes it is, she's so talented.

[ThoughtScientist]

Gnarly harmonies. I presume your sis is playing the guitar?

[boobootoob]

You wrote this? It's beautiful. Reminds me of Simon and Garfunkel.

[karitribble]

It's beautiful, ladies. I wish I could sing with you! How fun that would be. It would be wonderful to hear more duos from you two. Love.

[FreelyEdited]

remember us when you're famous ladies :)

[musicmathieu]

Good job!

[Drsharky43]

America Got Talent sign up is coming up in October I really do think you could win submit this video or any other Music video's you have all pretty good.

[fincenMIB]

Listen for it on npr (National Public Radio) they requested a recording of it today.

[KilroyCafe]

Awesome! My only suggestion: Take away the title "tribute to FLDS runaways". The best songs shouldn't tell you what they're about. Let the listener fill in his own interpretations.

[MrNokie0101]

Wonderful, just wonderful and great harmony :)

Bit irrelevant, but I tend to have my own thoughts when you do philosopical videos, do you mind video replies to them? This isn't my only account if you're wondering, so yeah, no videos.

[existentialistcat]

@MrNokie0101 Not at all, I love getting video responses. :)

[Alexotronic]

Shivers down my spine.

[terryfranklin2]

Wonderful voices. Strong, deep emotion.

[glenwoofit]

Do you support warren jeffs? Why would you do a tribute to FLDS?

[thegorillasnake]

@glenwoofit Read the title a little closer. It says "FLDS Runaways."

[brandom215]

Other similar institutions I mean to say

[brandom215]

Hate flds and other institutions sharing the song with all for sure thanks again amazing

[brandom215]

I absolutely love the song beautiful haunting My grandad and ex stepdad are lostboys I was raised anti-Mormon and am still anti-child bride) I oppose coercion in most if not all i know other forms of marriage however don't need my stamp of approval but I in Utah an actually like Mormons more than any other Christian groups I know other than political ties and powers I don't see them violently protesting etc and the majority of them at any given time will have constructive debates etc

[GoldenFinchFellow]

Sweet harmonizing! super! and a song with a story and a cause. love it

[Teakai8]

That was beautiful.  Well done and thank you.

[dljc1979]

this is why british people love north american folk music...

[EpistemicDuty]

Hard to not abuse the word "beautiful" but it is.

[DEverhart65]

Absolutely beautiful and haunting! Superb! You are very talented.

[feikedoi]

fantastic!



[fede2]

were those really just two voices??

[TheGoniometer]

Yes, you need a better mic;) and 10 lives. Living well.... This shamed the Mormon in me.

[AlaricSinclair]

This is really really beautiful, very reminiscent of Iron and Wine but with extreme uniqueness too. I love it.

[loveforeignaccents]

Beautiful!!

[Hakunushi]

u need a better mic =P

ur singhing is too powerfull to this one u got

[existentialistcat]

@Hakunushi I know. Try listening with headphones. :) This maxes out my computer's puny speakers.

[Tialkannos]

Know someone with a similar voice should be good to get a realistic sense of your own voice, I always strange when I hear my voice recorded. I realize that have a bit of noise in the recording, you can do noise reduction with software. And I think that your sister must be interesting as you, doesn't she want to experience being vlogger too?

[existentialistcat]

@Tialkannos I don't know but I'll ask. :)

[CiaoBello21]

Awesome! Great duet.

[jchahine]

wow you two are magical together

[existentialistcat]

Sister says: capo's on the fifth fret, and the chords are Em, C, G, D and the chorus is Am, C and G.

[MISTERWONKA7]

Those harmonies: I love them!

[tmafkap]

Beautiful! Only point to criticize: too short!

[gerontodon]

Dunno if I'm one of them there stalkers, but if I am, then even if I wasn't, I'm sure I'd still like this.

[twistedtreespirit]

you have a really great singing voice ;)

[RevJoshua]

Wow! Beautiful!! :)

[mypantsareTIGHTER]

aghh, this is so hauntingly beautiful. reminds me a bit of something chan marshall would write.

[Killedkennyagain]

Brilliant! Nothing better than two beautiful women singing folk.

[thawthepast]

Kinda like a mental dance before chores! I think that the sound was very pleasing!

[byronand5]

Wow! Gorgeous vocal blend and a really beautiful song. And little sister's smile at the very beginning is delightful! Well done!! :)

[dyingatheist18]

Wow, that was amazing.

[trick0171]

That was amazing! 

[TheAuspicious]

Great compo, great voices! Who's playing what?

Thanks for posting, listened to it 3 times, I'll be back for more! :)

[existentialistcat]

@TheAuspicious She's on guitar, I'm on the piano. I'm the lower voice, though I did layer a couple more vocal tracks on to make it richer.

[existentialistcat]

I composed it but could not remember how it went or the words half the time, and she made sure that we stayed on track and remembered everything. :)

[TheAuspicious]

@existentialistcat ok, is your sister on the ukelele and you the piano, pardon my deaf ears! :) I know you wrote it, this isnt my first time here listening to the great stuff that comes out of this channel! :P

4th time now!

[existentialistcat]

@TheAuspicious haha ok... *blushes*

[TheAuspicious]

@existentialistcat Sorry about the confusion with the comments, you had already answered my question!

6th time listening now! :)  So..... capo on which fret and what are the chords?? :)

[tylernautica]

is your sister INTP too?

[existentialistcat]

@tylernautica She's ISFJ.

[Greathiway]

Beautiful, Im Doubly smitten.

Album Debut date?

[existentialistcat]

@Greathiway I'd love to make an album. I'll keep you all updated. :)

[mandapop]

what in the hell!!! this is awesome!!!

[existentialistcat]

@mandapop :D

[Cadsn6]

Wow that was really really good. Reminds me of some of my favorite abstract bands. . Nice job :)

[mftman1]

Very impressed with the creativity of the lyrics and music, but with your voices and harmonics. I would get your album if you made one! I had flashbacks to the 70s, listening to Joni Mitchell.

[fullfrontalfrank]

This is ridiculously good! Very folky, and your voices sound perfect together.

[existentialistcat]

@fullfrontalfrank Thanks. :) We have pretty much the same voice, it's kind of funny. We are sisters so it makes sense I guess.

[GetonyourBoots1]

I sure would love to see you girls at the Kerrville Folk Festival some day. Big hugs from Texas!

[joshuag5732]

Excellent

[GetonyourBoots1]

Bless you, girls. Thank you so much for this. Much love to you from a ragged anti-polygamy activist.

[existentialistcat]

@GetonyourBoots1 Thanks for listening, you have our full support. :)

[62netty]

Beautiful song!

[ChristopherMarlowe]

That's a pretty harmony.

I was just talking to a lady last night, and she mentioned the FLDS and Warren Jeffs. Now I see that ECat just posted this song. Was this stuff in the news lately, or is it just synchronicity?

[existentialistcat]

@ChristopherMarlowe Warren Jeffs, the old prophet, was just sentenced to life in prison.

[Snagabott]

beautiful!

[lucidzirkus]

beautifllll

[TCLovesCheese]

That was beautiful. Seriously -- it's band time.

[ArjunaMysterytramp]

Love

[IncidentalShine]

Get a band already so I can buy your upcoming albums :-)

[HubSwitch]

nice... very nice girls... well done !

[IWannabeJew]

Lyrics in the description? Is this an original song? Sounds like something Red Molly would perform.

[existentialistcat]

@IWannabeJew Oh yes it's original, I will put the lyrics in the description, one sec.

[IChoseTheRedPill]

AWESOMENESS!!!

Kensho

[LucidPhilosophy]

[doford]

I love it :-)

[ONESPECIES]

Aww..... Make a Band already Girls!

[PlanetSledge]

Ohhh hey

[ObtuseSage]

Love it.

[existentialistcat]

@ObtuseSage thanks!

[Unworshipediety]

This reminds me of the country where the nearest neighbor is miles away and all you have is time with family.

[Steve2323ZX]

are you mormon?

[existentialistcat]

@Steve2323ZX LOL no.

[doford]

@Steve2323ZX She's lying, She's the biggest mormon ever :P
