What more can be said of this sensational duo, who turned out one superb song after another that really strikes a chord with so many of us; so sad that they broke up, a great musical loss.
Well shit! I used to listen to The Civil Wars often, I just recently started watching Nashville and I immediately thought that this song as well as Fade Into You sounded like The Civil Wars. Love their music style, it is so hypnotic.
+Caitlyn Smith So I just spent a lot more time than I probably should have looking it all up. The song was released as part of an album by The Civil Wars way back in 2009, but Nashville didn't even release its pilot until 2012. I dunno anything about the time it takes to produce a show, but I doubt it takes _that_ long. Even if he wrote it for Clare, The Civil Wars were still the first to sing it. Does that make it theirs? I'd assume so, honestly. And there goes 20 minutes of my life...
LYRICS If I didn't know better, I'd hang my hat right there If I didn't know better, I'd follow you up the stairs Stop saying those sweet things you know I like to hear The horns are blowing louder, the bailiff's drawing near Why do I keep drinking Wasting my time on you? If I didn't know better, But, damn it, I do There's a hole in what you're saying I can plainly see you've a lover that's waiting But, baby, you're right here with me Oh you might as well be the devil, Keeping me out past three Well you're the one with that apple, So, baby, you can't blame me Oh, why don't you keep drinking? Give me one night with you If I didn't know better, But, damn it, I do Baby, I do Oh baby, you're right here with me Sweet daddy, you know I do
I love both voices, but that high pitch the man carried, then brought it back down, is beautiful! Especially the TV show Nashville version, which is how I heard of this beautiful song.
It was one thing to completely fall IN LOVE with this song while watching Nashville, but it's a completely different thing to find out that it's The Civil Wars singing it! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
John Paul White and Joy Williams are behind magic all over the place...This song...and 'Safe and Sound' (Hunger Games soundtrack), sung by Taylor Swift who HAD to have gotten some vocal instruction from Joy Williams because she's never sounded like that in any song. I've been a fan of them for a while now, but I'm also a fan of Nashville. Glad more people are finding out about them. They deserve the recognition.
The show Nashville had lost me until I heard this song, then it all turned around!...being a huge fan of The Civil Wars I not surprised to find that the song was written by John Paul White!
I was lukewarm on Nashville until the two actors started singing this onstage and it sparks a pretty big plot point, and all I could think was I AGREE. It being a Civil Wars song was icing on the cake.

basically Nashville brought me here but when i heard the song i was like "This gotta be Civil Wars". No one else writing songs like this right now.
Ever since discovering The Civil Wars via Pandora, I have felt that the Scarlett and Gunnar characters on Nashville are modeled after Joy and John Paul. Love this!!
Yes, CW were awesome, the irony here is the relationship that Scarlett and Gunnar had in the show perfectly reflects the song and it makes you wonder about the relationship that John Paul amd Joy had. It makes it even more poignant
Clare Bowen and Sam Pallidino sung the song. In an interview Clare mentioned that it was the first time Sam had sung falceto. Clare Bowen's voice is different than Joy Williams. Also the song was played and sung at a slightly slower tempo on Nashville
Too bad there isn't another pair like that to give us new music. Enjoy what you get. Not a lot like this will be available now or in the future. Love what you get while you can get it.
Actually, Clare Bowen and Sam Palladio did a cover of this song. I think that they're both sound pretty similar. But, I agree that Clare and Sam did an awesome job :)
Love the 'Nashville cover' of this by Clare Bowen and Sam Palladio! I suppose had I heard this version first then I'd love this one better.. There is something soooo addictive about the Nashville cover! Both amazing though :)
The Civil Wars were actually the ones who originally sung the song. Nashville did the cover. Just giving credit where credit is due.
Winnie I didn't know that but when I heard it on the show I thought of this band! Both versions are amazing.
It was actually arum Rae who wrote the song
I still miss The Civil Wars, so much!!!!!! They were sonic perfection ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What more can be said of this sensational duo, who turned out one superb song after another that really strikes a chord with so many of us; so sad that they broke up, a great musical loss.
They're coming back! 😢
@@Foundsoul5 Not likely despite the effort of Taylor Swift. They did not end amicably. But we can hope.
I'm glad The Civil Wars are finally getting the recognition they deserve :) two of the most talented people In the world. Their music never gets old!!
Rewatching Nashville and realize this song is amazing of course it’s by the Civil Wars so many amazing songs
Beautiful song I love the haunting sound to the voices. First time hearing it on Nashville. Totally brilliant song
the second I heard this song on Nashville; I knew it was very The Civil Wars-esque
Me too
SAME. I was excited to know that it’s actually a civil wars song
Man, JPWs' high range is incredible, doesn't sound falsetto at all. Damn them for splitting up.
I just can't stop listening to this song !!!!
Well shit! I used to listen to The Civil Wars often, I just recently started watching Nashville and I immediately thought that this song as well as Fade Into You sounded like The Civil Wars. Love their music style, it is so hypnotic.
this is not a cover, Nashville version is. John Paul wrote this song, and his voice is just amazing an so intense without being to over the top
+Caitlyn Smith No, The Civil Wars did not cover their own song. Especially since they probably wrote it way before Nashville was even on.

+aljo ... but being right is oh so satisfying, isn't it?
Well, here's a "job well done!" for ya.
Worth 20 minutes?
LYRICS
If I didn't know better, I'd hang my hat right there
If I didn't know better, I'd follow you up the stairs
Stop saying those sweet things you know I like to hear
The horns are blowing louder, the bailiff's drawing near
Why do I keep drinking
Wasting my time on you?
If I didn't know better,
But, damn it, I do
There's a hole in what you're saying
I can plainly see you've a lover that's waiting
But, baby, you're right here with me
Oh you might as well be the devil,
Keeping me out past three
Well you're the one with that apple,
So, baby, you can't blame me
Oh, why don't you keep drinking?
Give me one night with you
If I didn't know better,
But, damn it, I do
Baby, I do
Oh baby, you're right here with me
Sweet daddy, you know I do
holy shit scarlett and gunnar sound just like them!!!!!!! amazing chemistry
That man's voice....there are no words to describe its sexiness.....
This song is amazing and their voices are amazing. I love how it just takes over when you're listening to it..
his voice is so good. *chills+
Good golly gosh. I am one of those 'Nashville brought me here' folks, but dang. This song, man, this song. Can't get enough of it.
Nashville brought me here and I'm so glad it did. Sam Pallidino's voice mesmerized me.
I love both voices, but that high pitch the man carried, then brought it back down, is beautiful! Especially the TV show Nashville version, which is how I heard of this beautiful song.
is it possible to just not get enough of this song!!!
Loved songs by the Civil Wars in the past, loved this song on Nashville but didn't realise it was originally be them! Gorgeous song.
Totally one of my favorite songs from The Civil Wars! What an impeccably matched duo!!! Keep 'em coming!!!
Nashville brought me here as well but damn this version is just as wonderful! Awesome song!
ABC's Nashville brought me here. I am in LOVE with this song. Everything about it. This band is also awesome!
I want these sexy voices back together!!! Now! :( :(
It was one thing to completely fall IN LOVE with this song while watching Nashville, but it's a completely different thing to find out that it's The Civil Wars singing it!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Rep from the people in their 40's. Yeah, that happened. Many more times than once.
Beautiful thing, this song.
Heard this song on Nashville and fell in love
another nashville watcher. this song is absolutely amazing
these guys are over the top with the sexual tension.....you should see them live....amazing.
John Paul White and Joy Williams are behind magic all over the place...This song...and 'Safe and Sound' (Hunger Games soundtrack), sung by Taylor Swift who HAD to have gotten some vocal instruction from Joy Williams because she's never sounded like that in any song.

This is a masterpiece...
love this song and the new show Nashville.
So love this song!!!!! And The Civil Wars. I can out this song on repeat and listen to it all day and night!
The epitome of the Civil Wars
Another one brought here by Nashville! What a sexy chilling song! Gotta say I liked the Nashville cover best! But the original is amazing too!
The show Nashville had lost me until I heard this song, then it all turned around!...being a huge fan of The Civil Wars I not surprised to find that the song was written by John Paul White!
They were great way before nashville. I thought it sounded just like a song civil wars would write when i heard it on there. Ugh they are so amazing
I was so excited to hear this song on Nashville! I love The Civil Wars

Thanks to Nashville. Beautiful song.
This is not a cover John Paul wrote this song
John Paul is the man. So sad he hasn't continued his music career further after they broke up😕
+Rachel Dildy Good news: He's got a new album out.
😆😎😃
I was lukewarm on Nashville until the two actors started singing this onstage and it sparks a pretty big plot point, and all I could think was I AGREE. It being a Civil Wars song was icing on the cake.

well that was hotter than hell on a sunday
I love the Civil Wars,this song is sooooo good

Yes, CW were awesome, the irony here is the relationship that Scarlett and Gunnar had in the show perfectly reflects the song and it makes you wonder about the relationship that John Paul amd Joy had. It makes it even more poignant
They only had a working relationship, that's all! There was nothing else!
Clare Bowen and Sam Pallidino sung the song. In an interview Clare mentioned that it was the first time Sam had sung falceto. Clare Bowen's voice is different than Joy Williams. Also the song was played and sung at a slightly slower tempo on Nashville
Nashville brought me here too!! Great sexy music.
Beautiful song, Nashville brought me here too

I'm always looking for good songs for various dances. This makes a great sultry West Coast Swing.
Too bad there isn't another pair like that to give us new music. Enjoy what you get. Not a lot like this will be available now or in the future. Love what you get while you can get it.
Good Lord, they're good... So happy I finally found this. Thank you so much for uploading.
