Hey everybody!
while we are still spending most of our time working on new videos for songs from our album, we thought we'd squeeze in this little cover for you, one of our favorite Beach Boys songs.
"God Only Knows" was originally released 1966 on the legendary "Pet Sounds"-album.
If you like our version, feel free to share it :)
MUCH LOVE,
Mona & Lisa
I like that they can take a song from 50 years ago and make it completely new without destroying what made it so special to begin with.
The orginal was a complex recording here they have simplfied it with an iota lost of the brilliance of song
As I work my way into old age, it is a constant joy that new young talent has discovered the best of the 60s and 70s, made it there own and is taking it forward. Thankyou.
How can so much talent be poured into two people? ❤❤
I think they had to be twins because there was way too much talent for one person, haha.
My God! So good! The harmonies are as ethereal as the Beach boys were!
A couple of angelic voices singing God Only Knows, I cannot express how wonderful I feel after listening to this. Just an unbelievable cover of this song, I've never heard a better version. Sometimes the right song meets the right voices and magic happens. Thank you for the spiritual experience.
Listening to them is such a joy...these women are wonderful
This cover by the MonaLisa twins is absolutely fabulous! They provide a crisp and gentle cadence, a lovely creative harmony, and voices that are exquisite. The Beach Boys must be proud to hear such elegance through this remake of "God Only Knows".
You're 100% right!
Brian Wilson took an absolute eternity trying to get this to sound the way he wanted.The harmonies in the BB's original are complex, but MLT's version remains true to Brian's original, despite the fact there are only two of them. Guitar work was delicately handled, loved the ukulele guitar. Once again the Twins proved to be more than equal to the challenge of really doing justice to an iconic song. Well done.
God only knows that I wish I had a girl like you. You two are remarkable, and drop dead gorgeous to boot. All I can say is WOW!
this has literally taken my breath away...
make a concert here in the philipines
These two are extremely talented and divinely gorgeous. Divinely
A perfect cover that honors The Beach Boys. Glad I found this.
After all this time this is still incredible!! Lifelong Beach Boys fan and this is so amazing! I still listen to this version as much as theirs.
I don't generally care for covers... but I stumbled across these ladies this afternoon and have been listening to them all day. Great voices, music, and choice of material. It's like finding a load of great oldies I somehow missed. Just amazing.
You ladles are a gift to fans of classic rock and roll harmony. Thank you so much.
This rendition never gets old.
Beautiful version girls for what it's probably one of the greatest love songs ever.
Very true
Absolutely stunning in every sense of the word.....harmonies and your own take on such classics.....what a talent!!!!!!
Ummm...........I am speechless. I have watched this at least a dozen times and have tried to think of an appropriate comment. I suffer from depression and anxiety and this is the best I have felt in weeks. Harmoniously spiritual, superbly sung and provided a light in my soul I Haven't felt in months. I'm finding it difficult to text my response through my tears, but my world is a much better place after hearing your Angelic voices. Thank you for sharing your gift and lifting my heart. Truly a blessing stumbling across your video.
Totally agree with you, John. That's the power of a truly great song when it's done well. Big hug to you, my friend!
Lord Bless u John
I think Brian suffered the same. "In My Room" says it all. I love this gals. When I hear them I remember how good the 60's was songs were.
The MLT has truly touched a special place in redoing the best of songs from my generation - 60's and 70's - like this one and most of the Beatles they cover
Good luck to you brother John.
Whenever I hear this song, it just makes me happy. I heard the original today and, well, the MLT cover is waaay better. Nicely done ladies!
These girls do such a great job in covering all the old classic music.
This is one of the best songs of all time. This is the best cover version. Fantastic stuff girls.
Covering what is possibly the best pop song ever written is risky. But this version honours Mister Wilson and is competent in its execution. It captures the essence and lights up this truly brilliant composition with respect.
Rarely is a cover of a masterpiece also a masterpiece. This recording is an exception.
When they were babies, God tapped them on their heads with his magic tuning fork...I am convinced they are angels sent here to make the world a better place with their gift. We are very lucky. :)
Not being a fan of the Beach Boys sound, I never realized how well written this song was.
My absolute favorite Beach Boys tune!! You both did it justice. Thank you for such beautiful vocals and music!! Brian would be sooo proud of your rendition, l bet.
As would Karl.
What a beautiful rendition of this song!
Some heavenly vocals going on here. The bass player is pretty good too.
Well? The "bass-player" is their Dad! Lucky man he is too!
@@martinbachmann6283 Yep, he plays keyboards on some of their songs too. They are all very talented.
Chills, goosebumps, tears and a smile...all at once. How beautiful and well orchestrated this is. Wow! Thank you for this gift for my ears and heart. Peace...
Just shows how music, regardless of which part of the world you hail from, vocals sound the same. It, like reading music.... is universal. Great version!
This song is a masterpiece.
It is.
Indeed! Even Paul McCartney calls it the most beautiful "rock" song ever written.
I think Reflections Of My Life by The Marmalade is as good if not better.
Have a listen if you don't know it.
@@CB-xr1eg not sure if i know it but will look it up thanks
@@vidviewer100 Listen to it by Puddles Pity Party as well.
The most beautiful song ever written, sung beautifuly
Perfectly done, this is perfection. I've listened to this a hundred times now.
simply divine...
A divine rendition of perhaps one of the greatest songs ever written
Do you know what really makes this song and this video? It is Papa Rudi joining his daughters in the video. What a trio! It is like Mona and Lisa are singing directly to their Dad while he keeps his steady bass line. Papa Rudi's bass line is like the constant positive influence that he has provided to the ladies during their entire lives. Thank you to all of them, including Michaela!
In the late 60s I had that same model Hofner bass guitar. I didn't much like it, and with its soft 'plonking' tone it certainly didn't have the presence and bite of a Fender. But I have to admit that it works really well in this 1960s cover, there was a lot of good music using that less aggressive sound
You took a tough song and nailed it. Your vocal harmony is beautiful.
Vocal harmony is more beautiful to my ears than any instrument in the world. The Beach Boys and Beatles had this gift, and so do The MonaLisa Twins.
Great job!
And also ABBA, they were also very good at harmonising too which helped them with their record sales,after all they are now the second most successful band of all time after the Beatles and their comeback album Voyage was very successful.
Wow...!! This is really... Haunting... I've got... Goosebumps...
A stunning rendition of a Beach Boys classic. :-))...
Wow- stumbled on this -- instant fan here!
This is the video that brought Mona and Lisa to my attention.
I was checking out some Beach Boys vids and ran across this.
I fell in love with them right then.
i never paid attention to the lyrics until I heard this version . Beautiful !!!!!
Exquisite harmony singing.
There's something about siblings harmonizing. Just angelic.
Ladies, I have to tell you that I just came back to hear this song again, because I have had a very tragic three weeks. I lost my best friend for over forty years. We played in a band together for many years, shared so many experiences. He was in great health and we never could have imagined he would die from a pancreatitis attack, but he did. He loved this song and many others that you two have done. In fact, he was the one that told me about you. Thanks again for not only doing this song so beautifully, but thanks for being the two, beautiful, and outstanding women that you are. It is so good to see people like yourself, performing and writing songs. You two ladies have so much class. Thanks again. It's a very sad time, but I know that we will all see each other again one day.
God bless my friend. I'm at the point right now where I know more dead people than live people. It happens to us all, of course. I encourage you to live your life to the fullest, and remember. It's the best way to keep our friends' memories alive.
the harmonics are hypnotising crazy beautyful !
Beautiful ladies, voices of angels.
These young ladies do a great job on this song
Beautiful! Carl is looking down from Heaven with a smile on his face.
I still keep coming back to listen to this song. I'm going to refer to you as the "Mona Lisa Angels" from now on.
This is not an easy song to cover but their beautiful voices make this a lovely version...greetings from the Uk
It certainly is not. However, possible.
No one comes close to covering this song as good as Mona & Lisa. Absolute perfection!
This cover was pure magic.
How can anyone not like this? The voices are beautiful, and it's an absolute credit to the original.
Yeah, I wonder what those 15 people were thinking (if anything at all)...
Jealousy!!
Possibly a lack of brains.
It is an awesome version!!!
Impossible to thin =k that some bonehead would listen to "rap" crap instead of this - isn't it? THIS is your - brain - THAT is your brain on drugs!!!
What commitment and talent, the twins were truly born to do this.
... stumbled across the MonaLisa Twins - I'm hooked.
Yes just tonight I found them, they are great singer's and Looking. GOD BLESS Them.
They are quite addictive. Watch some of their interviews...
My life is better from me stumbling, but it often makes me late to the show.
Me too!
Yes they are the greatest since the 60's originals ! Hope they make a fortune, they deserve it !
I'm at a loss for words....this is so beautiful............so much talent in this world...it's unbelievable......
Beautiful.
Paul McCartney and Brian Wilson have to hear these two girls,their vocals are absolutely fantastic,beautiful harmonies,maybe those two legends could work together and write something new for these two girls,these two girls can carry the torch of great singing groups of the past and keep the style living for the next generation. Bob.
I Comment agree more!😇🎶
Natural talent with natural beauty in MonaLisa twins is GOD's blessing to the world ...
My favorite Beach Boys song. You ladies are FANTASTIC!
Oh my. These ladies are simply fabulous. What a wonderful rendition of this beautiful song. True to the original, yet uniquely and masterfully new. Such beautiful harmonies,
This is the only cover of this song that does the original justice
Most musicians agree that this is the most beautiful love ballad ever written. You did a wonderful job here with sensitive vocals throughout which sounded absolutely gorgeous to my ears. Wishing you all the best for your musical future:))
Best female vocalists i have heard, great harmony, sung with passion and a real feel for the lyrics, i have recommended this group to anyone who loves music.
The MonaLisa twins have done all the covers I did with my old band in the 90s and early 2000! Then the war came and now they are gone so its with sorrow in my heart and mixed emotions I listened to these very gifted girls! Rip Chris, Carl and Marc!
You Ladies are so unique. The harmonising is inspirational and beautiful. I could and will play this many times, thank you both😇
No words. Pure perfection ❤
two angels!
Just in case nobody noticed - their talent level and musicality is off the charts. Every song they choose is transformed into something current and yet unique.
What a beautiful harmony, God only knows.
just perfect.
So in love with you two. Wow. Can't find the words ... You are incredible.
Speechless....
Another MLT triumph! Thank you for being on this world and making us smile.
I saw the "original" Beach Boys several times [including the TAMI Show in 1964], just saw Brian Wilson in concert last year. My high school played against the Wilson brother's high school [Hawthorne High] in football and several other sports. I've been listening to them since 1962. This version is GREAT!
God only knows you're a blessing to those of us who love to listen to each and every one of your songs. You get better and better each passing day. Be well - we need you around for many years to come.
All grown up now. Look at these incredible heartbreakers! Talent and looks- they make my sun shine! Keep it coming and Thanks!
so i just watched 5 other covers of this and had to laugh at how amazing this one is !!! One of the greatest songs of all time. DONE RIGHT!!!!
Listening again after 2 years , I'm still blown away by your arrangement of this Beach Boys masterpiece (sung by Carl Wilson with his very pretty voice). You ladies make it even better, if that's possible (and you show that it is). I'll never get tired of listening to this song. Ever.
I am always looking for anything related to the great Beach Boys. I can't believe I've never heard this stunningly beautiful arrangement before! Wow I was just blown away..........
Amazing how you are able to, as a duo, recreate the harmonies of this wonderful song. Brian Wilson would be proud!
you two!! made me cry... beautyfull ladies!!
Exquisite.
Super!
This could be your BEST number out of them all.
I think I’ve gone to HEAVEN❤️ This is so BEAUTIFUL ……………..
Time travelers? The 6os coursing through your hearts and souls. You’re inspiring a new generation of music appreciation, and your originals are as good as any of your covers. Keep the spirit, you’re making a difference for us all. Thank you.
Truly a great rendition!
You girls are incredible!
Beautiful. Certainly one of Brian Wilson's best compositions ( and the Beach Boys finest recordings).
The ladies do a very nice job.
Anytime you do a cover for the greatest song in the history of mankind for the greatest band of all times, you must do it in perfection. Congratulations!
I can't stop smiling. The songs are simply beautiful, and the way you play them is as beautiful.
Nicely done. There's hope out there.
Outstanding, MonaLisa Twins! I wish I'd heard this long before today. Such pretty voices, such lush harmonies. Just terrific. Thanks.
Absolutely love this. Gorgeous harmonies.
You are all so talented. Love it. That includes your Dad Rudi and Michaela. All the behind the scenes work. Bass, keyboards, audio and video. You all rock!
Brian Wilson would be shedding tears of joy, girls you girls nailed it
I love the way these girls/ladies/women interpret, sing and play the music I grew up with.
Absolutely spectacular! Beautiful version of such a wonderful classic. Brian Wilson would approve. Such beautiful and talented young women. I love this version.
These ladies have a very special gift, and they are sharing it with the world. There seems to be no limit to their skills, but they just get better and better. Very unique and wonderful.
