Emmylou - The Petersens and Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra (LIVE)

Happy Thanksgiving! We hope you had a wonderful time with family and friends. We have SO much to be grateful for, including you guys here on YouTube, and our Patreon community who support us to be able to create these videos!

Our ancestry on our dad's side is in Norway, and it was so fun to get to hang out with Norwegian band, Hayde. Here is the second video we filmed together, First Aid Kit's song "Emmylou".

►LYRICS - Emmylou
The bitter winds are coming in
And I'm already missin' the summer
Olso's cold but I've been told
I was born to endure this kind of weather
It's you I find like a ghost in my mind
I am defeated but I gladly wear the crown

I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too
No, I'm not asking much of you
Just sing, little darling, sing with me

How much I know that things just don't grow
If you don't bless them with your patience
I've been there before, I've held out the door
For every stranger with a promise

And I'm holding back, that's the strength that I lack
Every mornin' keeps returnin' at my window
It brings me to you and I won't just pass through
But I'm not asking for a storm

I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too
No, I'm not asking much of you
Just sing, little darling, sing with me

And yes, I might have lied to you
But you wouldn't better feel from knowin' the truth
I was frightened but I held fast
I need you now at long last

I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too
No, I'm not askin' much of you
Just sing, little darling, sing with me

I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too
No, I'm not asking much of you
Just sing, little darling, sing with me

Just sing, little darling, sing with me [x2]

Swedish duo (and sisters) ‪@firstaidkitband‬ talking about writing the song:    • Emmylou Harris moved to tears by First Aid...  
"When we were 14 and 16, we discovered the music of Emmylou Harris and Gram Parsons... We were so inspired that we wrote this song, which is about the joy and the magic of singing together with someone that you love" – comparing it to the relationship of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash.
