These two gentlemen are Matthew and Gunnar Nelson<\/a>, the twin sons of Ricky and Kristin Nelson. This song is from their first record, After the Rain<\/em>, released in 1990. True confession: I totally bought it, and may even still have the tape somewhere.<\/p>\n

This video is a thing of beauty and a joy forever for their outfits alone. There’s the matching artfully ripped jeans, in the beginning, which are followed by a series of epic costume changes. I spent at least a minute trying to decide if the one on the left – I think it’s Gunnar, but I can’t be sure – was wearing red legwarmers or especially fancy boots in the first several frames on the stage, and I’ve decided those are boots which look<\/em> like legwarmers. In any case, they’re fabulous.<\/p>\n
