Aly & AJ's first music video, 'Rush,' debuted in 2006 — and now, they're looking back on the track with EW.

movies. But they do remember contributing one creative idea in particular. "One thing that we added into the concept was the sand. Which is… that actually is kinda cringy where it's like, we're collecting sand from all these different [places]," Aly says. "And also there's one that says 'Canada.' It's like, okay, we went to a Canadian beach? And we were like 'We need to get sand from Canada.

The performers also discuss their new music video for "With Love From," which they shot in Marfa, Texas. "[Marfa] is like a really special gem that most people don't really know about. It's like a really cool artist community, small town about six hours outside of Dallas," Aly says. There's also a lot of footage from Las Vegas — and they reveal that they were kicked out of one location there for shooting video without permission.

The sisters agree that their independence as artists has made them feel more creatively liberated. "We're really in charge of all of the visuals when it comes to imagery, to the font, to merch, our setlist — every aspect of Aly & AJ as a whole is decided by us, which feels very empowering," Aly says. "And I don't think we had that kind of freedom back in the day when we were kids.

"I do feel like there's a challenge with recreating your old music and making it feel new and fresh again," AJ adds. "[At] all these shows coming up, we play 'Rush''With Love From' and they actually fit really well together because we've made 'Rush' feel like it's a current part of our music. So it'll be sweet to now have these side-by-side live.

Overall, the duo has nothing but positive feelings toward the "Rush" video. "We looked natural in it, we didn't look like made-up Disney dolls," AJ shares. "I really have an appreciation for where that chapter of our career took us." Watch Aly & AJ's full reactions to "Rush" and "With Love From" above.
