      They bring tears to my eyes every. fucking. time. I don't think people who haven't sung realize how rare it is to find someone who blends so GD perfectly *and* hits the center of every pitch *and* matches dynamics telepathically with you and is completely in sync with vibrato.
      They're so spot on that I often hear ghost harmonics.

Love these ladies and Afie together. Watch the family Christmas short film called "Sunday Dinner" that Afie did around the same time if you haven't. It will warm the cockles of your heart.
