    [Chorus]
    So we're okay, we're fine
    Baby, I'm here to stop your crying
    Chase all the ghosts from your head
    I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
    Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
    We'll look at them together then we'll take 'em apart
    Adding up the total of a love that's true
    Multiply life by the power of two

    I have two amazing moms who love this song. Ever since I was little I have heard them singing it, now I am almost 18. They have always said that it is “their song.” I never thought anything of it until I REALLY listened to it. The imagery is so beautiful. Now, I am crying thinking of how much my moms love each other and how much I want to experience love like they have.

      This is one of the most beautifully written songs..... so far ahead in years. My Mom-in-Law’s wife passed several years ago, this song reminds me of them. I miss her.
      But, I think this song transcends sexuality.... I think of my hubby and get all warm & fuzzy. It puts a smile on my face even though it’s a little sad.

      Lily - I’m of your moms generation. My children also had two moms (I was one of them) before the Indigo Girls came along, so when they showed up on the scene. Their music was so powerful! Their song, “Free in You” was played at my wedding to my current wife. That was, of course, before it was legal for us to get married, but we still had a ceremony at our church and a big party afterwards. Indigo Girls were sung in the wedding and played for our first dance.
      I’m so glad you had two moms and it was a positive experience for you. I think my kids all felt it was positive for them, too, although not always easy. They range from 25-33 now. 😊

    This song transports me back to the summer of 1997 in San Diego, California. I was travelling around the world and met a beautiful blonde curly haired girl there on a bus travelling to the beach. We started dating & this was her favourite song. She didn't know it at the time (because I was stupid enough not to tell her, being a man) but she was/still is the love of my life. I moved back home to the other side of the world because my visa had ran out and we lost contact. I waited for her for years, hoping that she would contact me one day or even be waiting outside my house when I returned each night from work, sadly that didn't happen. I would think about her every day then one day after many years I found her on Facebook & she had since married. So every couple of years I play this song to remind me of those happy memories.
    So the moral of this story is, don't hold back. If you need to say to someone I love you, say it and don't have a lifetime of regrets.

      They say that when you meet the true love of your life, that you will remember the very first kiss, the pause before the kiss, every single moment. I am on my second marriage, and sadly i dont remember either one of them. But i do remember a woman that i spent one night with, i remember her name, the pause, the length i put in to the date to get her to come back to my place, the way she smelled, the food we ate, all the way down to the minute detail. Her name was Katherine, she went by Katie, she was from Missouri, she was 6' tall, her favorite band was indigo girls, song was Power of 2, followed by Galileo, she worked for Thompson Books, she wore strawberry champagne from Victoria's Secret, she preferred winter over summer because she liked wearing sweaters, and boots, she ordered Chicken Marsala, light onions, and extra mushrooms, her favorite wine was Merlot, but she as okay with Pinot Grigio but she liked it cold. Why in all the universe do I remember every bit of this.
      I spent one night with this woman, and for some reason i took in every single thing she said, we didnt exchange numbers, because we wanted the moment to be perfect, so when we looked back later in life, it would be the one perfect thing that never got spoiled.

From meeting her on a bus in downtown San Diego to the conversation we had. To meeting up that very night, her clothes, corkscrew curly blonde hair blowing in the wind and her beautiful smile. The park where she took me and the very spot where we had our very first kiss. I just wish I could turn back time and start again from that very first moment on that bus......

My wife's is "Stronger Than the Monster" and mine is "Chase All the Ghosts" in our own handwriting along with our anniversary date in Roman numerals along with a self-designed sign to signify the "Multiply Life by the Power of 2".

    Now the parking lot is empty
    Everyone's gone someplace
    I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed
    A cooler and a 2-day suitcase
    'Cause there's a place we like to drive
    Way out in the country
    Five miles out of the city limit we're singing and your
    Hand's upon my knee
    So we're okay
    We're fine
    Baby I'm here to stop your crying
    Chase all the ghosts from your head
    I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
    Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
    We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
    Adding up the total of a love that's true
    Multiply life by the power of two
    You know the things that I am afraid of
    I'm not afraid to tell
    And if we ever leave a legacy
    It's that we loved each other well
    'Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people
    Trying on the treasures of youth
    But a road that fancy and fast ends ends in a fatal crash
    And I'm glad we got off
    To tell you the truth
    'Cause we're okay
    We're fine
    Baby I'm here to stop your crying
    Chase all the ghosts from your head
    I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
    Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
    We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
    Adding up the total of a love that's true
    Multiply life by the power of two
    All the shiny little trinkets of temptation (make new friends)
    Something new instead of something old (but keep the old)
    All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface (but remember what is gold)
    And it's fools gold
    Fools gold (what is gold)
    Fools gold (what is gold)
    Now we're talking about a difficult thing
    And your eyes are getting wet
    I took us for better and I took us for worse
    Don't you ever forget it
    And now the steel bars
    Now the steel bars between me and a promise
    Suddenly bend with ease
    And the closer I'm bound in love to you
    The closer I am to free (free)
    So we're okay
    We're fine
    Baby I'm here to stop your crying
    Chase all the ghosts from your head
    I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
    Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
    We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
    Adding up the total of a love that's true

    My partner introduced me to the Indigo Girls 20 years ago and this was one of our favorites. My partner died almost 2 years ago after a long time battle with lymphoma and we found some comfort in this song as we hoped for a cure. Now, it brings tears to my eyes but I still love it. Our daughter has discovered a talent for singing and even a little song writing (at the ripe old age of 11) and I am looking forward to sharing Amy's and Emily's music with her as a way of remembering her Mama.

    No matter what sexuality, race, religion... regardless of anything else, it is impossible to deny the talent of the Indigo Girls. They are probably the most poetic lyricists in modern music. If they had been born a hundred years ago, they would have been poets to compete with Auden, Elliot, and Yeats.

    I’m not sure why I came across this today. But I think, for a good reason. I was writing a friend, saying ‘the power of two is over, and now it is just me’. I thought after, hey, I think there’s a song called that, Power Of Two, I remember that. So I’ve just been like crying a good 10 minutes after looking up and watching this beautiful video with song. I lost my spouse almost a year ago and, I’m still having a real rough time missing the partnership we’d built for decades. This was what I guess the universe needed me to see today. I have to, and must, accept, he is gone from life. And somehow, keep the power, that we built. I know, he’d want that. It is so, so hard; when you’ve had something so strong, to suddenly be without. ‘Cause chances are, it was likely a once-in-a-lifetime, thing. I am very, very glad - that I had a chance in my life to feel that power. Some do not ever find it, so I am grateful. I know, true love - is a gift. I miss it oh yeah I sure do, but, I must count myself very lucky to have had that gift. Loss is climbing a staircase to get past the hurt and then keep slipping down some steps. I need to reach the top. I have slipped again today, I pick up, and climb again. A beautiful song I needed to remind myself to get back on the stairs. 💜

    This song is very touching. I have loved y'alls music since I was 12 years old. Thank you for being one of the artists to help me through my very rough coming out years. And touching my heart as I grow older.

    I can't imagine a more loving song, or a more joyous video. It's what life is about--the strength we gain from loving one another. "All the shiny little trinkets of temptation, something old instead of something new. All you have to do is scratch beneath the surface and it's fool's gold. Fool's gold. What is gold?" Thank you for the integrity of your music and the love you emanate and cultivate and grow exponentially with every honest word you sing. You make the world a better place. I'm so glad you're here, and alive. I love you so much. With all of my heart, Namaste, Pam
    Power Of Two-- INDIGO GIRLS-Emily Ann Saliers
    Now the parking lot is empty
    Everyone's gone someplace
    I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed
    A cooler and a two day suitcase
    Cause there's a place we like to drive
    Way out in the country
    Five miles out of the city limit we're singing and your
    Hand's upon my knee
    [Chorus:]
    So we're okay
    We're fine
    Baby I'm here to stop your crying
    Chase all the ghosts from your head
    I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
    Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
    We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
    Adding up the total of a love that's true
    Multiply life by the Power Of Two
    You know the things that I am afraid of
    I'm not afraid to tell
    And if we ever leave a legacy it's that we
    Loved each other well
    Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people
    Trying on the treasures of youth
    But a road that's fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash
    And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth
    [Chorus:]
    Cause we're okay
    We're fine
    Baby I'm here to stop your crying
    Chase all the ghosts from your head
    I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
    Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
    We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
    Adding up the total of a love that's true
    Multiply life by the Power Of Two
    All the shiny little trinkets of temptation
    (Make new friends)
    Something new instead of something old
    (But keep the old)
    All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface
    (But remember)
    And it's fools gold
    (What is gold)
    Fools gold
    (What is gold)
    Fools gold
    (What is gold)
    Now we're talking about a difficult thing and your
    Eyes are getting wet
    I took us for better and I took us for worse
    Don't you ever forget it
    The steel bars between me and a promise
    Suddenly bend with ease
    The closer I'm bound in love to you
    The closer I am to free
    [Chorus:]
    Cause we're okay
    We're fine
    Baby I'm here to stop your crying
    Chase all the ghosts from your head
    I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
    Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
    We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
    Adding up the total of a love that's true
    Multiply life by the Power Of Two

    Back when lesbians are still female and no men in skirts were hounding them. I have so much respect for the Indigo Girls for always saying their truths, always loving others and keeping themselves grounded. Thank you for showing the world that love is love.

      The Indigo Girls are staunch and public supporters of our trans and gender nonconforming siblings, have donated to trans rights groups, and Amy herself had talked about her journey with gender dysphoria and being genderqueer. This is not the space for transphobia, and I’m sorry that your heart is so full of hatred that you can’t remove yourself from that attitude

    This was my wedding song . . . my husband and I are married 10 years this August 19 and this song still brings me to tears. I thought we had been through a lot in the 10 years we dated, but being married brought challenges I wouldn't have even imagined! "But I took us for better and I took us for worse, don't you ever forget . . . now the steel bars between me and a promise suddenly bend with ease . . . the closer I'm bound in love to you, the closer I am to free." My favorite lines!!

    This reminds me of highschool (over a decade ago) and I asked my art teacher if we could play music while we worked with clay and she was very hesitant. She must have thought "what are these teenagers going to bring in here??" And I brought in this album and to this day she still plays it in her art class :)
