What do you think about The Indigo Girls?
-
My favorite band ever. They are such incredible musicians, songwriters, activists, and humans. I've seen them 20 times live as a band (5 more if you count their solo shows, and 2 record-store appearances), and I will go to my grave saying these two are the greatest.
-
I love their music. I haven't stopped listening to "Rites Of Passage." Perfect album!
-
I have loved the Indigo Girls since 1990. Their songs are powerful and bold and emotional. Their musicianship is great and both the discography and the live shows are excellent. I celebrate their entire catalog. Their music and message of love and acceptance will live forever.
-
"Power of Two" is still a great listen decades later
-
This hokey narration does a real disservice to an otherwise well written synopsis of the IG career. They are two of the best singer-songwriters in the WORLD, regardless of their sexuality, regardless of their politics. Their MUSIC is simply SUBLIME. Listen to it with an open mind and you can't deny their EXCEPTIONAL talents - together, or apart. They are simply one of the best live musical acts America has to offer - a true National treasure.
-
I have seen them in concert many times. They are geniuses and I learned how to harmonize with just about anyone from listening to these two for decades now.
-
Most music is for certain moods and headspace. Indigo girls encompasses so many emotions that I can be into listening no matter what mood I am in! The Indigo Girls have contributed so much to my mental and emotional health over the past 30 years and I will forever be grateful for their existence!
-
I also came out in the 80's ! They have always looked up to them for not being ashamed of who they are!!! I've seen them Like 20-25 times from Newport folk festival to va beach va, thank you for giving me strength to be who I am ❤

First time I heard...Least Complicated...I got chills. That song really couldn't have been more fitting for me. Music has a way of overriding al opinions on orientation, personality and the complete array of genders...and recognize the most important thing about artists...and that is talent. 👏😃

I learned more about The Indigo Girls in this 12-minute video than in all my decades of listening to their music. Thank you! My favorite albumn is Indigo Girls from 1989. I think they never reached that level in that every single song was a hit in that albumn. Love 'Romeo & Juliet'. Amy was hard, Emily soft. They balance each other. Great to see them still going strong after all these years. It goes to show that following your heart makes longevity.

Loved the Indigo since I was a kid! Great duo! Great musicians! Great activists! Hard to see them older! But will always love them!
-
They harmonize well together when they sing. 👍🏼
-
I wish I’d been more aware of them when I was at Emory University, and they were playing at trackside Tavern. My roommate loved them. I wish I had gone!
-
I’ve never seen them in concert but their music got me through High School in the early 90s. It was empowering.
-
Met them before they were big time. Two very nice people.
-
Been a fan from their get go. This new knowledge, just shot my respect level up 10,000 notches!! 🔥 This was very well done. Thoroughly enjoyed this vid. Great work. ❤️👊👍
-

-
Some of the best music to come out of the 1980s.

I avoided watching this video for months bc it seemed too sensationalized for me, but it was actually really well made and interesting :D I'm so much of a superfan that I didn't learn anything new (in fact, I even noticed a small error) but I'm still glad I watched it (although some of the comments under this video just make me sad)
