      @@saturnfive3496 Studio quality of audio is obviously not their goal, here, and that is fine.
      Instead, they likely were more interested in creating an entertaining video.
      That means having an interesting backdrop, as they chose, was as important as sound quality.
      I, for one, enjoyed the backdrop because the whole time that I listened to their song; I imagined what it would be like to live in one of those high-rises.

      Hi Brian.
      What can I say?
      It was never ment as an affirmation about the existence of Angels and their singing ability,
      However,
      I'm so glad that my simple praise for Two Artists clearly enjoying the act of singing together
      prompted you too share your story of the time you freed yourself from the restrictive
      thought and fear of Death/Dying.
      Thank you,
      Wishing you well.
      Mark.

    A double treat today finding the two duets by my two favorite female singer-songwriters on UA-cam these days. I get a sense that this song carries personal meaning to both, perhaps for similar reasons. They both covered it in the past, but they apparently didn't have much time to rehearse together and conditions weren't ideal. Still the result is very unique, and I hope for some more collaboration in the future on their original music.
