I'm an old man (a clean one) of 72 with daughters and grand daughters, and you can't know much lovely enjoyment you bring to me by what you do with your music. I love your band....
Wow! Thanks ladies! O was born in 1963, and I was a little boy, probably no more than 7 or 8 when "Brandy" climbed the charts back in the day. I can remember loving the song, and imagining my favorite uncle singing it when I would hear it on the radio, and thinking about one of the girls in my school that I had a crush on as the girl in the song. Isn't it funny, how we taylor our associations to songs to our own lives!
Great job girls. Time goes by at a blink of an eye. Enjoy your life. I've always loved this song . Missing my young life. Oh what a time I had................
Wow… just driving around in a van and knocked another one out of the park. You guys, and Josh and all the other ‘walk ons’ are insanely talented. These simplified arrangements are delicious and thoroughly entertaining. Thanks for sharing.
Not only are your performances always high quality and heart-warming but you consistently introduce me to great music I haven't heard of. Love your choice of music!
I love this video. There is so much joy in Van Morrison that it spills out into the world. Thank you for sharing. I remember when my aunt bought the 45rpm (vinyl record) of this song.
Wow. Just wonderful! (2) beautiful young ladies who show a lot of class while they do their thing! One of my all time favorite songs, and you guys rocked it out! Awesome van song! Congrats on being very talented, and very lovely.
Mike there’s lots of great music that this generation is putting out it’s just not on top 49 radio like it was during your time. You have to find it now
Jon Birch so what if they do? I’m a musician also and I didn’t know this song until I watched Guardians Vol. 2. When you’re not from that generation, there’s songs that you’re gonna miss.
Beautiful. A great song but more important the beautiful voices and obvious talent passed down from one generation of talent to another. You girls compliment each other beautifully. What a great video. Your Mom has every reason to be proud and smile.
Another gem from you guys. I love how you embrace these old songs from half a century ago. You're parents must have been playing these tunes all the time. Good times.
Yes ladies you did it made me fall in love again with your voices and this classic song. I was there when it was first played on the radio. Love it so much that when the time came named my daughter Brandy. Great job you both are awesome. Thanks for the cover tunes and the originals.
I was watching Elliot Lurie do a fairly recent a capella version of this song on RUclips. I commented how great he sounded and sent him a link to this and he replied that he loved the "live from the van version"! Thought that was cool and you should know about it 👍
Hello Reina, You girls are so good at what ever song that you perform. I remember this one very well the first summer I came back home from Vietnam. I'll be 73 in a couple months, and I sure enjoy both of your talent.
I love you gals! Twenty five years ago I was playing tunes that you now play and I love hearing you. Thank you for the memories! And now with a new Martin D-28.
could not love both for her making music, singing, beautiful natures and good vibrations more. So you make people really happy and I will sent you my love back
I remember back in 1972 commuting from Kitchener to Hamilton Ontario in my 1962 Rambler Classic Wagon singing this song at the top of my lungs. It’s wonderful to see and hear young people playing our music on RUclips. Reina, you certainly surround yourself with great collaborators!
Very sweet tribute....That song came out when I was in the 10th grade......all the girls loved it !!.....was a big sing along number back then.......your rendition reminds me of that......truly, another place and another time.
Hi ladies- great job🤘 This is a band that every time I hear this song I can’t believe they didn’t have another hit or 10! Such a good story too!🙂❤️⭐️⭐️💋💋☀️🔥🕊🦋.
I was a kid when this song was released. Had the "45" and played it constantly. I named my little girl after this song. She passed away in 1985. I am brought to tears each time i hear the song on the radio. You did the song justice and also brought me to tears. Not sure how i even stumbled on this but glad i did. Thanks for the song.
This song always reminds me of AFROTC Field Training ... officer's basic training ... at Hamilton AFB, California, in 1972. I had a transistor radio and this song seemed to be playing all the time. Good memories. Thank you for singing this.
I was singin all the way - except to check out Sis's guitar work. Great work from your Van - Morrison. God Bless your Mom - this one of my favorite tunes through 1972
You really don't understand.. This song is so precious to folks like me. I was a Vietnam veteran stationed on the USS Saratoga. We saw, loved and understood the Olangapo girls in the Philippines. I loved a girl here by the name of Christie. I still miss her to this day 44 years later. This song still means alot to me. Thanks for the memories.
And then, watching the 1988 Summer Olympics, there was a 15-yo gymnast named Brandy Johnson (now Brandy Johnson-Scharpf). Watching her warm up, one of the male color commentators mentioned that she was named after the song, and the female commentator couldn't believe that the song was that old!
Sweeeet Song! Nice singing while driving and lovely Guitar playing! Brandy a typical spanish liquor! Hope you come to Spain one day and sing this beautiful song! You girls are best i ve seen singing that song after the RHCP! Keep on driving and singing in that van Morrison!
First of all, how cool is it that you've got a killer guitarist/backup singer in the back seat. That's great multi-tasking!! Second, I used to wake up to that song on my clock radio just about every day that summer. One of my all-time favourite AM radio hits. You gals rock!! Keep it up!!
Two absolutely beautiful girls singing! I love the drivers smile, you can tell they both really enjoyed making this video. The girl playing the guitar....damn it, she's better than I am! I could listen to these two all day.
You young ladies are awesome naturals! I love hearing you guys play and sing. I wish you would do Manic Monday by The Bangles. I think you'd do quite well with that one given your versatility and talents. Love ya ladies. Can't wait to hear more from you two!
Every video from RdC has at least one comment from somebody of a certain age (cough...MY age...cough) saying how great it is to hear young performers with such fantastic talent paying homage to wonderful music from our day and doing it so well. Count me among them! I was very sad to hear you no longer have that recording of your Mom singing Brandy though 😔
Being from a Navy town this song has special meaning to me. When my dad retired from the Navy in the mid 1960s he went into managing restaurants and bars. He oversaw the management of a bar called Jack's American which was near the gates of the largest Navy Base in the world, The Norfolk Navel Base so most of his customers were sailors and other military personal. Since this song romanticized a sea port town this song resonated with the customers and was a very popular song on the jukebox. I still have the 45 records of this song that was on that jukebox. Thanks for covering this song.
Wanna jam? Lol..good uke players are hard to come by not those who use it ad a 'quirk'. fine version of this classic..think there myt be a verse missing or the change of the chorus after the 1st verse?
Forgive me Ladies but I almost had a heart attack, great performance but I'm stunned you were really driving while performing & recording. We would HATE to lose such beautiful talents due to driving "Russian Roulette Style". Just sign me: A Worried Grandpa..... ❤️
I'm an old man (a clean one) of 72 with daughters and grand daughters, and you can't know much lovely enjoyment you bring to me by what you do with your music. I love your band....
I get the Beatles reference, there.
How true!! Honestly, the same sentiment is felt HERE!! Amazing 👏 Music and Performances AND binge-watching is allowed (how wonderful) 🎶🎸🎹👏👏👏
" I'm an old man...uh..(a clean one!) Lmao!!!
Holy wow, you must have a whole kingdom of your own with that many kids.
Speaking of van Morrison.. tupelo honey?
These young ladies are the real deal and as good as it gets. True professionals in every sense of the word.
Agreed!
Wow! Thanks ladies! O was born in 1963, and I was a little boy, probably no more than 7 or 8 when "Brandy" climbed the charts back in the day.

It a good feeling to hear the young folks appreciate the old tunes.❤
Great job girls. Time goes by at a blink of an eye. Enjoy your life. I've always loved this song . Missing my young life.
Oh what a time I had................
Whenever I hear that song it brings me back to the summer of '72. Simpler times. Great job!
Toni's smiles and expressions give me endless joy.
I love Tony's hat 😊
Wow… just driving around in a van and knocked another one out of the park. You guys, and Josh and all the other ‘walk ons’ are insanely talented. These simplified arrangements are delicious and thoroughly entertaining. Thanks for sharing.
Not only are your performances always high quality and heart-warming but you consistently introduce me to great music I haven't heard of. Love your choice of music!
These young women have real joy. May GOD bless them.
Every time she sings its just enchanting its so soft yet powerful and its just amazing.
Love to see your Van Go! May you two roll on forever.Thank you.
One of my favorite songs and you both knocked it out of the park. Love the guitar finger picking and strumming patterns as well. Simply excellent
check out this perfect cover of this song here. ruclips.net/video/zJAsOGizkfU/видео.html
I love this video. There is so much joy in Van Morrison that it spills out into the world. Thank you for sharing. I remember when my aunt bought the 45rpm (vinyl record) of this song.

I love to see young people have a true appreciation for the music of my youth!
Keep it up!
Yea I am done and over with the ''Young people do not know good music '' now.. They know it when they HEAR IT.. You gots ta hear it FIRST
Jim S Unfortunately, they have no "music" of their own generation to listen to, it's just screaming and noise now
Mike there’s lots of great music that this generation is putting out it’s just not on top 49 radio like it was during your time. You have to find it now
Jon Birch so what if they do? I’m a musician also and I didn’t know this song until I watched Guardians Vol. 2. When you’re not from that generation, there’s songs that you’re gonna miss.
Jon Birch that’s not what I said at all. You can discover music anywhere; movies, commercials, radio etc.... you missed my point anyways. Cheers mate
LOVE to see you 2 sister's playing and LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST !!!
Yet another quality Cover Reina & Toni !! ' Yeah your voice, could steal a Sailor ... from the Sea ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ '
Beautiful. A great song but more important the beautiful voices and obvious talent passed down from one generation of talent to another. You girls compliment each other beautifully. What a great video. Your Mom has every reason to be proud and smile.
Another gem from you guys. I love how you embrace these old songs from half a century ago. You're parents must have been playing these tunes all the time. Good times.
Thank you girls for making my day. Beautiful voices and the song was done very well.
You are so lucky! I need a guitarist for my back seat like that.
Gary LeRoy leroygt don’t we all

always love finding a new cover of Brandy. One of my favorite songs of all time.
One of my FAVOURITE SONGS and a GREAT RENDITION! Thanks for the ride along! Cheers from Burnaby BC Canada.
Toni is a great guitarist
could not love both for her making music, singing, beautiful natures and good vibrations more. So you make people really happy and I will sent you my love back
MERCY!! No two-people-and-one-acoustic-guitar driving along in a van could EVER put out a vibe like this. You never cease to amaze me. LOVE IT!!!
You guys are a breath of fresh air, music and fun! Brilliant.
This song has such nice memories for me. I’m that old
matthew dont say that,you are just more experienced.
harry w And old. Lol nothing wrong saying you're old. I'm older too. Seems like people get too sensitive and politically correct these days.
Matthew Hansen me too
Me too shipmate.

Word! Reina wrote many very good words. Now see remembers the words to many fine songs. My word!

WOW....that is a great version...well done and beautiful voices!!!
I played the 45 over and over! Looking Glass, 1970 something. I was a freshman in high school so 1972?
Nice van!👍😘

No: Six lolol yes I remember, I bet you sang this song to yourself many times like we all did...back in the day 😊
When I heard it in 1972 I was in the 8th grade
lol i feel so young. i love this song tho
Graduated high school in 72 and you couldn't turn on AM radio without this song or American Pie coming on that summer.
I sang along the first time, and I too, sounded awesome! You girls rock!
One of my all time favourites and this is the best cover I've heard. I love what you've done with it. Brilliant, ladies :)
Sweeeet Song! Nice singing while driving and lovely Guitar playing! Brandy a typical spanish liquor! Hope you come to Spain one day and sing this beautiful song!
You girls are best i ve seen singing that song after the RHCP! Keep on driving and singing in that van Morrison!
When Tony started playing that first riff I died and went to heaven, what a gem
An oldie but a goodie !!! Wonderful job indeed ! Thank you !
First of all, how cool is it that you've got a killer guitarist/backup singer in the back seat. That's great multi-tasking!! Second, I used to wake up to that song on my clock radio just about every day that summer. One of my all-time favourite AM radio hits. You gals rock!! Keep it up!!
Just wondering if the van came with the guitarist. How much is that option
I just keep listening over and over..I love the way you two perform this song..great job..thank you for sharing it with us.
Nice job and pick of a song, was havein a horable day, y'alls video put a smile on my face, thanks girls 😊😘
Splendid job. How sweet and open and honest the delivery.
Great cover! Not many have done this song, I love it.

Excellent live cover!!
What a great song. 🎉🎉. Singing in the car. What a trend you could start! Applause! 😊
I'm becoming a huge fan of these folks!
Great song stumbled across your video brought a huge smile to my face tonight thanks beautiful 😊
If you are a great singer you don't need a fancy studio to sound awesome...I love your songs. Keep up the great work..
That was great. I thoroughly enjoyed the van "Morrison" 's inaugural song! Thank you to you two very talented artists.
Grew up listening to the original. This is by far the best cover I have heard. Nice job.
Check out this perfect cover version by the"Big haed Todd band" ruclips.net/video/zJAsOGizkfU/видео.html
You guys make me smile and put joy in my heart. Thank you!💕
That was fun! Loved the rendition of an old favorite! And yes, I was a sailor who relates to every word.
Two absolutely beautiful girls singing! I love the drivers smile, you can tell they both really enjoyed making this video. The girl playing the guitar....damn it, she's better than I am! I could listen to these two all day.
WOW :-) Well done Ladies. Great Video. Great Voice and again Toni´s ecellent Guitar playing :-) Thumbs Up and Greetings from Germany
Fantastic.
BETWEEN THE GREAT SINGING AND THE GREAT GUITAR PLAYING - MARVELOUS
Great choice of songs. It's still one of favorites after 45 plus years
You young ladies are awesome naturals! I love hearing you guys play and sing. I wish you would do Manic Monday by The Bangles. I think you'd do quite well with that one given your versatility and talents. Love ya ladies. Can't wait to hear more from you two!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this...brings back such wonderful memories. Your dedication/back-story is awesome. :)
The van is named, “Van Morrison”. I’m in love. :D
thats funny
Indeed :'D
"Van Halen" would have been an adequately thoughtful choice I think...
I lol'd. I have to like it for that
My white van is called “Vanilla”.
Beautiful ladies, beautiful voice, beautiful song, well done, greetings from Ireland.
Excellent! Your pitch is dead on and excellent guitar work!
Great effort Ladies one of my favourite songs done extremely well !!!!
takes me back to my youth.....wow, what a great performance...."van" morrison has great acoustics, lol
First heard the track on a crappy compilation album years and years go. This is a lovely rendition so well done girls.
Such a great song!!! You two are AWESOME! Really enjoy your magic.
Your voice is awesome. Tony is fantastic also.Reminds me of Jim Croce ‘s super talented accompanist Maury Mueshleisen.
Nice job young ladies ...great voice , nice work on guitar
Every video from RdC has at least one comment from somebody of a certain age (cough...MY age...cough) saying how great it is to hear young performers with such fantastic talent paying homage to wonderful music from our day and doing it so well. Count me among them! I was very sad to hear you no longer have that recording of your Mom singing Brandy though 😔
You two always make me smile ......
Wow, pure natural vocal music at its best. I like the guitar players voice too... Nice solos
are you stupid?
@@kennypowers8654 Are you an asshole? No need to answer.
OMG you two are just freakin' adorable! Keep it up, it brings us smiles big time!!!
That was truly beautiful!
Of course, "Baker Street" will be your real test.
Being from a Navy town this song has special meaning to me. When my dad retired from the Navy in the mid 1960s he went into managing restaurants and bars.

VANtastic that was awesome guys. ATB to you both
Great version of a wonderful and timeless song. Well done!
Holy crap you did awesome that was great
Fantastic! Keep up the cover versions!!
Omg just yesterday I played and sang this with some friends on the ukulele!
But I'm nowhere near your skills guys, you're awesome
what are the chords?
Wanna jam? Lol..good uke players are hard to come by not those who use it ad a 'quirk'. fine version of this classic..think there myt be a verse missing or the change of the chorus after the 1st verse?
Beautiful song n beautifully done. Thank you
Toni your Martin HD-28V is verygood
Great version of Brandy, thank you very much It filled me with great memories of a time passed by.
Killed it ladies!!
You two rock. My favorite song. Love you, thanks
Forgive me Ladies but I almost had a heart attack, great performance but I'm stunned you were really driving while performing & recording. We would HATE to lose such beautiful talents due to driving "Russian Roulette Style". Just sign me: A Worried Grandpa..... ❤️
I agree, it would be a shame to get a scratch on that van
