The same day they uploaded the now-viral Phil Collins reaction video, they also uploaded reactions to five other songs, including "Ex-Factor" by Lauryn Hill, "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder and "White America" by Eminem.

"When we do videos, I don't be thinking nothing of it because I be thinking, 'Oh, we gotta do that next video,' " Tim said.

At first, they stuck to a lot of rap music, they said, but then someone requested Frank Sinatra's "I've Got You Under My Skin."

In the video, uploaded in September 2019, Tim says he'd never heard of Sinatra.

The comments sections of their videos, amid the various recommendations, are filled with tales of fans' own experiences with the artist or the song.

"I'm a 58 yr old white woman who is reliving her life thru the music you guys are choosing to listen to," says one user, on the twins' reaction video to "Hey There Delilah" by the Plain White T's.

Never stop!"

When asked why they think their videos resonate, Fred is quick to respond.

"Because we're Black," he says simply.

Tim loves Radiohead's "Creep," and Fred likes to listen to Linkin Park's "Lying From You" while working.

Making videos gives them a chance to open up more, Fred says.

We just smile, laugh together and everything," Tim said.

"You could be having a bad day, and watch one of our videos and be uplifted," Fred adds.

That uplifting, in a year seemingly filled with bad days, is rare -- but at least we have their channel.
