My Mum is nearly 80. She told me that when I was young that the greatest British band ever was the Kinks. I didn't believe her because I loved the Pistols and the Clash and even the you know what? Maybe the Kinks are the greatest and I hope they listen to this lovely

[johnrichardson-dawes]

I've been listening to Waterloo Sunset for fifty years and I've never been as moved as when listening to this version. Lovely. I'll go on listening.

I'm a pretty cynical grey haired old British Invasion addict and I'll tell ya... this heartfelt, perfect little performance almost brought me to tears...

[williamparker]

seeing these young folks enjoying our music is heartening

[Falconlibrary]

Two effortlessly cool and stylish Swedish women, a sisterly Simon and Garfunkel. So this is love.

At 53, I first really listened to the Kinks when I was in grade 9, this song in particular really stood out then. Hardly anyone I knew listened to the kinks except their well
Known tunes, you really got me, Lola etc. but this one has always been one of my favourites of any songs, let alone the Kinks. What a gift. Great job Ladies. Thank you.

This song always makes me cry. These sisters always make me cry. The two of them doing this song, well, you get the picture.

[joedibert]

Best version I ever head. Such harmony.

[Adventure-Outdoors]

I love the Kinks, nothing comes this, it's fantastic. These two are something else!

[NxDoyle]

During my years in America, I saw a lot of live music, especially in Texas and Louisiana. Lots of wonderful close harmonies at places like Anderson Fair in Houston and the Old Quarter in Galveston. But as good as they were, none produced the sound of dancing through my soul that the Söderberg sisters do.

[btotheraidington]

Was our wedding song... that was brilliant and touching, amazing

[oatmealsavage]

Absolutely awesome choices of covers by these ladies. Respectful of the originals but still making them their own. I can't get enough of them. So great to see young artists that acknowledge the riches of the past. A beautiful tribute!

[johnnybsteelriff]

Beautifully emotive...Ray would be massively impressed....

[matthewmontgomery]

This is solid. Since last night, I've overdone it, listening to this song essentially on repeat. Funny how you can stumble upon a song and stay stumbled.

[jodyfinley]

When I cross over I hope that my eyes get to see every sunset from here to eternity and my ears get to hear every note, every melody, every lyric from these two beautiful voices and so that my heart and soul will follow and never be weary no more.

[danielpeacock]

Genuinely can’t stop watching this. An unbelievable cover of one of the finest songs of all time!

[MegaFrostbitten]

Feel proud to be from Sweden and a Kinks-fan from the days of You really got me, I love First Aid Kit even more after this!

[IAintOverYet]

Hey ... I grew up listening to the Kinks and covered their songs back in the 60's with my garage/basement band in NYC.  I love those guys.  If I covered one of their songs now, I would do them a dishonor and would be bored if I tried to replicate what was already perfect.  I'm happy these girls even know and appreciate that music, and welcome their own rendition of it like so many other covers they've done.  Bravo!

The are gorgeous, both personality wise and as singer/songwriters. The world needs a First Aid Kit :)
