This video is for Steve, one of the most generous, supporting people we have ever had the luck to encounter.

In summer 2013, during our stay in London, we shot a music video for our song "When We're Together", in which we painted a huge picture, together with passing strangers in the busy main road of Camden.

Later we auctioned the painting, and after some shipping difficulties with the original highest bidder, Steve from Miami finally bought the canvas and put it up in his office. We were happy that the painting has finally found a new home, and because of the nice messages and pictures his secretary Mary had sent us, we knew it was in good hands with lovely people.

After that he wanted to support us and our music even more, in a way that completely blew our minds, still does and always will! Look at all those wonderful guitars!

He wants nothing in return except for us to continue making music and making good use of the instruments he sent us. So we were looking for a project in which we could play all the guitars and at the same time thank him for his generosity.

We kept close contact with Mary, who told us that one of his favorite songs was "This Boy" by the Beatles, a tune we too absolutely adore! So we spent the last couple of days in the studio and recorded the song and used only the guitars Steve had sent us. The nice bass line was played by our lovely Dad who this time refused to be in the video :P (We'll get him again for the next studio cover recording ;) )

We hope that you, Steve, and all you guys out there will enjoy our version of this gorgeous 3-part harmonies' song. We wish every single one of you a MERRY CHRISTMAS and all the best for 2014!

Much love to all of you and thanks again, Steve!

Back in the 70s, we used to listen to the Beatles as students of music, as scientists of music theory. In all practicality we tried to emulate what they did as they did, but in our own style. We never came anywhere near what you two have been able to accomplish. Not only does your work pay tribute to the great minds at work as the Beatles blazed their path into history, but it exemplifies your own senses, your own capabilities, your own unique and totally respectful sense of accomplishment that makes this great work sound so fresh and so new today, 50 years since. Thank you so much for keeping the flame lit, and brightly at that! Kudos!

Just found MonaLisa Twins on Youtube. As a guitarist and child of the sixties, I am excited and refreshed that such clean talent still exists and, moreso, that they appreciate the same music I fell in love with 50 some years ago. God love you. JR
