Aly & AJ Interview - Songs In The Key Of Strife

Aly & AJ - Aly pictured

We've all heard the towering pop glory that is 'Potential Breakup Song' by Al & AJ (don't worry if you haven't, there's a clip at the bottom of this page), and we all know that a genius song can make all the difference when you're attempting to cope with a tough emotional situation.

So, given the chance to talk to Aly out of Aly & AJ, all I wanted to know was whether the sparky twosome have a whole pile of songs ready for any extreme moment, like a kind of musical medicine cabinet. Because a band who cares enough to offer the right kind of bandages for the right kind of wounds, is going to go a long way.

aly_aj_150.jpgWhat I Expected: A fun sparky chat about the sort of extreme situations which would be solved with the carefully-chosen use of popular song.
What I Did Not Expect: You know what they always say about the Americans not really getting our British sense of humour? Well, there's a bit of this going on. I think it's fair to say she was humouring me for most of the interview. Ah well...

    No problems with pronunciation up here in the Frozen Wastelands. Although how many times do I have to spell S-T-U-A-R-T. Gits.

    And yes, she was just humouring you. Or humoring for any Americans who may have surfed in at the notion of Aly & AJ Windows Meeja action.
