Tegan Rain Quin y Sara Keirsten Quin nacieron el 19 de septiembre de 1980 en Calgary, Alberta, Canadá. Desde muy temprana edad, las gemelas mostraron un interés ferviente por la música. Al crecer en una casa llena de discos y guitarras, no era raro verlas tocando o experimentando con melodías y letras desde que tenían ocho años.
Durante su adolescencia, Tegan y Sara comenzaron a escribir y grabar sus propias canciones. En 1998, con solo 18 años, ganaron una competencia de radio local cuyo premio era tiempo de estudio profesional para grabar un álbum. Este evento marcó el punto de partida de su carrera profesional y poco después, lanzaron su primer álbum "Under Feet Like Ours" de forma independiente en 1999.
En el año 2000, firmaron con el sello Vapor Records, fundado por Neil Young. Este acuerdo cimentó su camino a la fama. Su segundo álbum, "This Business of Art" (2000), fue bien recibido por la crítica y les permitió iniciar giras más extensas en Canadá y Estados Unidos, abriendo para bandas como Neil Young y The Pretenders.
Con el lanzamiento de "If It Was You" en 2002 y "So Jealous" en 2004, la dupla alcanzó una notoriedad aún mayor. "So Jealous" en particular hizo que captaran la atención del público internacional, gracias a canciones como "Walking with a Ghost", que fue versionada por la popular banda The White Stripes.
Whatever That Was Song Lyrics
Whatever That Was by Tegan And Sara Been dragging 'round this town in a bad mood lately
Feel like somebody died, baby who's going to save me?
I guess I never really ever knew me at all
And I guess I never thought about it till you were gone
Feel like somebody died, baby who's going to save me?
You used to call me out wherever I was
I used to love you girl, whatever that was
The more I think about it now, that's all that it was
The more I think about it now, that's all that it was
Been dragging 'round this town every lie that you told me
Feel like I lost my mind, baby can you really blame me?
I guess I never really ever knew you at all
And I guess I never thought about it till you were gone
Feel like I lost my mind, baby can you really blame me?
You used to call me out wherever I was
I used to love you girl, whatever that was
The more I think about it now, that's all that it was
The more I think about it now, that's all that it was
I don't think about you much at all
I don't ever wonder how you are
Every time I find myself wishing you weren't gone
I just tell myself that I was wrong
The more I think about it now, that's all that it was
The more I think about it now, that's all that it was
I don't think about you much at all
I don't think about you much at all
I don't ever wonder how you are
I don't think about you much at all
