    I have been mesmerized by all three Platt brothers. I love your voices and your love for each other. I have been playing your music during the quarantine.

    Sibling Harmony...The Best...I come from a family that used to travel and sing....My 2 brothers, my sister, and me......Harmony is never as good as with family.

      I wouldn’t completely agree. I can’t sing unisono with my mother. Our voices just don’t match and it frustrates me so much. 😩

      Isn't it just two beaudtiful voices? By ascribing a label you are saying so much more, and creating a category that is unnecessary.

      I should add that I am not anti-semetic, but does anyone describe the Everley Brothers or Simon & Garfunkel in terms of their religious belief?

    Lyrics
    You can play the game and you can act out the part
    Though you know it wasn't written for you
    But tell me, how can you stand there with your broken heart
    Ashamed of playing the fool
    One thing can lead to another; it doesn't take any sacrifice
    Oh, father and mother, sister and brother
    If it feels nice, don't think twice
    Shower the people you love with love
    Show them the way that you feel
    Things are gonna work out fine if you only will, as I said
    Shower the people you love with love
    Show them the way you feel
    Things are gonna be much better if you only will
    You can run but you cannot hide
    This is widely known
    And what you plan to do with your foolish pride
    When you're all by yourself alone
    Once you tell somebody the way that you feel
    You can feel it beginning to ease
    I think it's true what they say about the squeaky wheel
    Always getting the grease
    Better to shower the people you love with love, yes and
    Show them the way that you feel, I know
    Things are gonna be just fine if you only will, what I like to do to you
    Shower the people you love with love
    Show them the way that you feel
    Things are gonna be much better if you only will
    , yeah
    (Show them the way that you feel), oh yeah
    (Shower the people you love with love
    Show them the way that you feel)
    You'll feel better right away
    Don't take much to do
    Sell you pride
    (Shower the people you love with love
    Show them the way that you feel)
    They say in every life
    They say the rain must fall
    Just like pouring rain
    Make it rain
    Make it rain
    Love, love, love is sunshine
    Oh, oh yes
    Make it rain
    Love, love, love is sunshine
    Yeah, all right
    Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
