No autotune. No fancy processing. No studio tricks. No sampled riffs from someone else's record. A real guitar and two voices...beautiful. We don't get to experience this too much these days. Listen how they both control their dynamics. Simply amazing.
How do EITHER of their respective spouses watch them on stage together, with THAT much Vocal, AND personal chemistry and NOT question why they aren't together at least a little bit? They are musically perfect for each other, and I think that dynamic of being able to have such chemistry, but hold each other musically accountable, and be honest with one another the way you might not always be able to be with a spouse is what makes their music so great. Still, the chemistry and very hard to miss.
omg this performance is so emotional. I find it funny that they felt the need to mention that his wife was in the audience. You can tell me a million times that there was nothing going on between them and I wouldn't believe it. So much magic!
I think something did happen and their spouses (Joy is married too) probably gave the ultimatum of “you either quit playing music with them or I’m leaving”. I can’t think of any other reason besides that. Unless they just didn’t get along off stage. I’ve been in bands like that.
Believe it. They both have families they love. John Paul was a successful musician and producer before and after the Civil Wars. He has a beautiful family and his own studio in the famed Muscle Shoals area. A real fan would know their history and not just go on with histrionic nonsense that is hurtful to their families. They have spouses and children you know. He has a house full. And parents still living.
@@jamierichardson9981 So what? Joy finally divorced her husband. A full house and living parents do not exclude the possibility of falling in love with a person with whom you are not married, but create music together. A joint song is the same child, a duet is the same musical family. Especially with such sexual energy that beats from their joint creativity.
Whaddafuck? Why are there tears in my eyes? Hahaha. Strong stuff. Knowing what became of this amazing duo makes this song have an even stronger effect on me. Chills and feels throughout the whole song.
I want nothing more than to see them perform. The way they express their emotions when their singing are so real and raw! I love them so much! I'm crying right now.
Achieving fame is NOT a 9 to 5 job, guys. Once you reach that pinnacle, it takes removing yourself completely from the publics' eye to regain your privacy. The only thing wrong with that is the public tends to forget about what they don't see on a regular basis. Hopefully John Paul will realize how disappointed his fans are and reappear to make beautiful music with Joy. They are something special.
This song is my favorite Civil Wars song. The guitar line is just amazing, and the vocals and harmonies blow my mind. Better live than on the recording.
The music moves her in ways it should move everyone as I'm sure it does to many who listen to their music. I can't help finding myself swaying like she does, and the way he plays that guitar, both holding an emotion that is unbelievable... Anyone who can't see this obviously doesn't understand music.
seriously youtube needs to do something about disliking videos. For example make it so that we have to put a reason as to why we dislike something that way people who liked the video can have a chance to down-vote the hell out of the people who put dislike kind of like the one person that did for this video. it just annoys me to see that the person had the balls to thumb down this video but doesnt have the balls to put a reason below.The civil wars you guys rule and keep the music coming!!!
I don't know how, but this song continues to give me chills every time, regardless of how many times i play it over and over again. suffice to say, the civil wars are one of a kind.
this song sounds so sad, and just sad... Like the scene is dark and grey... and then the sun comes out, and it rains... Just the song is just so dang beautiful... Can't wait for the video to come out... To see what they come out as... Just like poison and wine.. That video is just so pretty... and keeps my heart warming up to them.
I don’t know who loves who more. Or whose more captivated by the other. Like old souls. That’s what makes it magical, and passionate. You just don’t feel chemistry, you feel the passion in their voice. You don’t know where his love begins or where hers ends. It just flows together in the circle, chemistry, union.
I love them! Their voice together is so awesome and everything gets perfect when I listen them. And falling it's like one of my favorites songs from TCW.
I love joy, every time she smiles I have to smile too, she is soo beautiful! They are truly amazing! I wish they get the attention they deserve soon, like they just won 2 grammys but they didn't even show it! They did while the show was on commercial!
GAH! They're so perfect! My friend Stephanie and I were in our friend's studio recording our cover of this song and we left with a very spiritual feeling. That's just how powerful this song is.
Lyrics: Haven't you seen me sleepwalking 'cause I've been holding your hand Haven't you noticed me drifting Oh Let me tell you I am Tell me it's nothing Try to convince me that I'm not drowning Oh Let me tell you I am Please Please tell me you know I've got to let you go I can't help falling out of love with you Ooh Why I am feeling so guilty Why I am holding my breath Worry about everyone but me and I just keep losing myself Tell me it's nothing Try to convince me that I'm not drowning Oh Let me tell you I am Please Please tell me you know I've got to let you go I can't help falling out of love with you Won't you read my mind Don't you make me like you And I hear Please Please tell me you know I've got to let you go I can't help falling out of love with you With you Ooh Ooh Haven't you noticed I'm sleepwalking
Emotional is a gross understatement to all this song is. It's amazing they can create something so whimsical and gripping with just a guitar and two voices.
They were on GMA last week, Joy was prego, and still sounded awesome. She obviously has an amazing voice, but after listening to them for a while, I have to say John Paul does too. Neither one carries the other. This along with some clever covers and eerily and ominous (in a good way) music make them perhaps the most authentic duo in music today.
so much chemistry that they have together you would think they are couple so beautiful they are not together and they can share something that alot of married people don't share
No autotune. No fancy processing. No studio tricks. No sampled riffs from someone else's record. A real guitar and two voices...beautiful. We don't get to experience this too much these days. Listen how they both control their dynamics. Simply amazing.
🤘
I’m still heartbroken about their break up
and me in 2024
I've never seen a more symbiotic relationship in music than these two. They were one. Miss them.
pjmuck I bet they miss them too.
Then you obviously haven't heard of the everly brothers.
How do EITHER of their respective spouses watch them on stage together, with THAT much Vocal, AND personal chemistry and NOT question why they aren't together at least a little bit? They are musically perfect for each other, and I think that dynamic of being able to have such chemistry, but hold each other musically accountable, and be honest with one another the way you might not always be able to be with a spouse is what makes their music so great.
Still, the chemistry and very hard to miss.
They were such a special duo that ended way too soon. I hope someday they will reunite.
how???

Agree! You can hear them falling in love...it's obvious.

You Only Live Once... timing can be an issue but yes, amazing chemistry and even more amazing talent ❤️

the first song they wrote together, it remained their best. god i miss them
i genuinely think joy has the most beautiful singing voice in the world
The chemistry here, unbelievable. Best performance by a duo ever.
That chemistry is also what broke them up
Sadly
This is what you call hauntingly beautiful.
July 2023. Still one of the best performances on record.
2024
@blmi5591 The worst "Will they? Won't they?" on record. God bless the both of them. I'm glad we have what we have.
Watching this is like an emotional roller coaster. Goodness gracious. So much happiness, but so much sadness. I love them so much.
My favorite version of this song- Joy just kills the vocal and John Paul is there matching her intensity with the harmony. So very good.
Pure quality on so many levels……..
This is the most incredible performance I’ve ever witnessed. Everything about this is magic.
Whaddafuck? Why are there tears in my eyes? Hahaha. Strong stuff. Knowing what became of this amazing duo makes this song have an even stronger effect on me. Chills and feels throughout the whole song.
you should see them do "Falling" in the "Live in New Orleans" video. i think it's better,
same kind of reaction.
what do you mean 'what became of them'?
@Cindy Moring They has a falling out and don’t perform together anymore.
I want nothing more than to see them perform. The way they express their emotions when their singing are so real and raw! I love them so much! I'm crying right now.
So amazing!
First song they wrote together...
Live performance!!
Harmony!
This entire concert is beautifully done!
This is the song that cemented my loyalty and fan devotion to these two for life.
Who’s here in 2020?! This band was magic. Beautiful music
No other will ever do harmonies as good as them
Its more powerful that they're not in a relationship. Their chemistry is so amazing. I'd kill for those harmonies!

I miss music like this... good quality and heartfelt
The music moves her in ways it should move everyone as I'm sure it does to many who listen to their music. I can't help finding myself swaying like she does, and the way he plays that guitar, both holding an emotion that is unbelievable... Anyone who can't see this obviously doesn't understand music.
I love how at times, Joy sings in accompaniment/enthusiasm with John even though she's not truly on mic. There's heart : )
one of the best songs of all time!
One of the most beautiful songs
seriously youtube needs to do something about disliking videos. For example make it so that we have to put a reason as to why we dislike something that way people who liked the video can have a chance to down-vote the hell out of the people who put dislike kind of like the one person that did for this video. it just annoys me to see that the person had the balls to thumb down this video but doesnt have the balls to put a reason below.The civil wars you guys rule and keep the music coming!!!
Reminds of how much can be done with a guitar and 2 voices. 2 very good voices
Chemistry is insane!!!
They're no longer talking to each other--isn't that crazy!
Dawn Scott makes one wonder what happened?! hmmmm... : )
Of all their songs from this performance, this is where Joy really excels. She KILLS it!!!
She gives me chills every time, so amazing
I don't know how, but this song continues to give me chills every time, regardless of how many times i play it over and over again. suffice to say, the civil wars are one of a kind.
the civil wars album is always on repeat if i nap in the evening. it's so relaxing to listen to!
Favorite song.
One of the only bands that I like live 😍 absolutely amazing
I miss them
Never has a song about a dying relationship been so beautiful. So much intensity for guitar and voice
This gives me goose bumps everytime I hear it! (And I watch this video about twenty times a day, so thats a lot of goose bumps).
this song sounds so sad, and just sad... Like the scene is dark and grey... and then the sun comes out, and it rains... Just the song is just so dang beautiful... Can't wait for the video to come out... To see what they come out as... Just like poison and wine.. That video is just so pretty... and keeps my heart warming up to them.
They are such talented skilled musicians. I can't even fathom these performances.
I don’t know who loves who more. Or whose more captivated by the other. Like old souls. That’s what makes it magical, and passionate. You just don’t feel chemistry, you feel the passion in their voice. You don’t know where his love begins or where hers ends. It just flows together in the circle, chemistry, union.
They make you believe in reincarnation and soulmates finding each other again
I love them! Their voice together is so awesome and everything gets perfect when I listen them.
And falling it's like one of my favorites songs from TCW.
I became a fan in 2014 and have now been living 10 sad years of regret of having never seen them live. Still a top listen for me.
Dammit her voice is amazing!
Such a beautiful performance...
She,s so good!
I love joy, every time she smiles I have to smile too, she is soo beautiful! They are truly amazing! I wish they get the attention they deserve soon, like they just won 2 grammys but they didn't even show it! They did while the show was on commercial!
GAH! They're so perfect! My friend Stephanie and I were in our friend's studio recording our cover of this song and we left with a very spiritual feeling. That's just how powerful this song is.
I swear this is the only music that could sing me to sleep. I love it!!!!!!!
This is the best "Falling" presentation i've seen !!!
the reason people dont cheer during there performances is because they are mesmerized by the flawless beauty of the performance !!!
This is extremely beautiful...
fantastic. can only imagine how much greater a studio production of this song would be. You're blessed.
Love how much emotion is shown in this performance. More so than anyother performance from this night.
Her voice is sooooooooo amazing, in love with her voice!!!
Lyrics:
Haven't you seen me sleepwalking 'cause I've been holding your hand
Haven't you noticed me drifting
Oh
Let me tell you I am
Tell me it's nothing
Try to convince me that I'm not drowning
Oh
Let me tell you I am
Please
Please tell me you know
I've got to let you go
I can't help falling out of love with you
Ooh
Why I am feeling so guilty
Why I am holding my breath
Worry about everyone but me and I just keep losing myself
Tell me it's nothing
Try to convince me that I'm not drowning
Oh
Let me tell you I am
Please
Please tell me you know
I've got to let you go
I can't help falling out of love with you
Won't you read my mind
Don't you make me like you
And I hear
Please
Please tell me you know
I've got to let you go
I can't help falling out of love with you
With you
Ooh
Ooh
Haven't you noticed
I'm sleepwalking
Damn they were great. So thankful I got to see them in Oklahoma City back in 2011. Wish they could have worked it out.
they are so simple, and yet so majestic...........
Outrageously great. One of the best live vocal performances I've ever heard.
Amazing.
have been right with thecivilwars since this song came out on youtube and all i can say is thanks civilwars for everything inbetween;}
This is literally perfection
Emotional is a gross understatement to all this song is. It's amazing they can create something so whimsical and gripping with just a guitar and two voices.
Wow, first song? It's my favorite!! I love this one! They are so amazing live! I was so lucky to see them! I love these guys!!
Seriously, I can't stop watching this video, I really love this live!
Stupendous performance. Lukewarm applause. Some people
Simply mesmerising.
they sound so beautiful my head hurts! unreal
One week on from my last post, a dozen more listens, and .... Magnificent !
they are simply amazing.
literally have chills. they're amazing.
tears of being moved....lovely!
I can so relate to this song.
honestly brings tears to my eyes
They did these songs live on my birthday!
this song... is sang so beautifully... i cant even believe it
my favorite song in the whole entire world.
Omg!!! Love them!!! There my inspiration!!:)
Love this song :)
Just realized he uses the same epiphone that I own. Love that guitar
she definately does and its amazing, i love them and i just found them yesterday, no joke and i already know alkmost all of their songs.
I cry.
what a voice. breathtaking
they trully speak my heart song, but this song helped me lift my head up out of the water...
SUCH a beautiful song.....oh wow
this. is. stunning.
What a BEAUTIFUL VOICE!
They were on GMA last week, Joy was prego, and still sounded awesome. She obviously has an amazing voice, but after listening to them for a while, I have to say John Paul does too. Neither one carries the other. This along with some clever covers and eerily and ominous (in a good way) music make them perhaps the most authentic duo in music today.
Oh my. Wow, I am speechless. Amazing, absolutely amazing.
wow! mesmerizing! No words!
Oh God, they are so good!
This is one of worst feelings to have and they've captured it perfectly...
perfect way to start a morning
so much chemistry that they have together you would think they are couple so beautiful they are not together and they can share something that alot of married people don't share
Such passion!
What an underwhelming applause for an awesome performance.
GOOSEBUMPS!!!
