Dancing in the Sky- Dani and Lizzy
“Dancing in the Sky” is one of 12 songs featured on Dani and Lizzy’s Working of Hearts album released in September 2013. The 27-year-old Vancouver twins were inspired to write the song in remembrance of one of Lizzy’s close friends who had recently passed away. In the song, Lizzie delivers the message that her friend is still being thought of and that she still loves and misses her friend. The music video shows Lizzy singing into a mic with a guitar and beats soundtrack and the duo also incorporates piano into the mix.
While the song expresses sorrow at the loss of a loved one, it also asks for happiness and to have no fears or pain. This message isn’t much different than their other songs which tend to focus on positivity and sends a message that can help people heal and overcome life’s obstacles. Due to the sisters’ differing styles, they bring a variety of influences to their music, and with that, the pair strive to create a unique blend of two genres.
After “Dancing in the Sky’s” release, the song quickly garnered 700,000 views on YouTube, 500 shares on Facebook and stayed number 10 of the top 100 songs for two months straight.

Friday (March 24th) will mark 5 Long years since I lost my ‘blue eyed angel’ Kristin Elaine….to suicide. Shortly after that horrific day I found the video Dani & Lizzy had made. As I watch the individuals and families display photos of their lost ones, my eyes filled with tears, try to sing along. I cannot even begin to tell you how many times I have watched and listened to the beautiful words they wrote. Thank you ladies ….
