Their music has a simplicity that disguises their superb arrangements and masterful harmonies. Their break-up not only is a blow to the American music scene but a truly sad loss to the thousands of fans who loved them, myself among them.
They are the only duo like this. And it sucks that they broke up because I will never hear anything as beautiful as the way they sound. Unless someone has any options.
The music they made together was beautiful. They were definitely a one of a kid duo. I hope some day in the future they can reconcile and create more beautiful music for us.
my heart hurts at the thought they will never perform together again. While their voices are great individually, their harmony together is fantastic. I love The Civil Wars
the way he looks at her at 2:36. and the whole time the way they look at each other. that is apart of what makes them sooo special. please make more music, and look at each other the same...
I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant...when I hear this song, I melt. When this baby is able to hear, this is going to be the first song he or she hears. And probrably the song I deliver to. :) John Paul and Joy, you're awesome!!
Not one of their songs is bad. They're voiced are perfect together and you can't hate any of their songs.They sing beautiful and i love listening to them...
this song makes me sad. I met this guy Brendan and he sent me this because he lives on the other side of the world. this was like 2/3 years back, and I think of him often.. :(
+Riaz Ali he did touch my soul. He was very special to me. I met him in 2014 and I got along so well with him. it was amazing, even though I hadn't met him we had a great connection and got along so so well. he was funny and caring and loving .. unfortunately he lives around GA side and me in South Africa. I lost contact with him about 2 years ago and I think about him often. I was so stupid to just leave him. hopefully I find him again some day. I am praying so.
I'm currently in a long distant relationship and listening to this is just killing me. I don't know why I keep listening all of your songs, I can't even sing along to this, these songs are just so beautiful and touching.
I saw The Civil Wars at the Fillmore in San Francisco this past Thursday, Nov 17th. The music that comes from them is just magical... I have NEVER in my life witnessed a completely silent crowd like the one I was in that night- so silent you could hear the air conditioner blowing during the moments of quiet in the song. Watching them perform this welled up my eyes and squeezed at my heart. I will never forget that performance. They truly moved me deep within; an unforgettable night.
The first time I saw them live I was at an Adele concert in Montreal and when they played their first song my heart melted. I've never heard two people sound so beautiful together in my life and by far my favourite album to listen to is theirs. You guys are both perfection together and I hope you never stop playing music together cause it would just be the biggest shame.
It just baffles me, how naturally beautiful the two of them singing together is. I love these videos. Not only do they showcase how amazing the music is, but it makes me feel like I'm sitting in on a jam session. So awesome.
I can't imagine being either of their spouses and having to watch this, or any of their other videos, much less watching them perform together in person. I'd absolutely lose my mind.
That’s why they ended up breaking up as a duo, mid-tour…also because her husband was their manager, lol. The crappy thing is, they had a once-in-a lifetime musical chemistry… they’re perfect for each other. My wife and I were waiting for a long time for them to either divorce their spouses and get married, or just keep going on the way that they were. All of that aside, just an absolute perfect duo, perfectly exquisite songwriting and musical arrangements, just all around amazing… That’s two people right there that were made for each other.
It's funny how we don't even know them personally but just KNOW they were made for each other. I'm so sad they didn't continue to work together, their music helped me through a lot of rough times.
When people wonder why I complain about modern music because it has TONS of audio editing in post, this video is why I complain. Because it's the exact opposite of all that! I can hear the hum of the room, their breath, the guitar's subtle inconsistencies, their natural and beautiful voices.
love this song... everything about it. the title is perfect, lyrics beautiful and your dynamic fortuitously magical (reminds me of Robert Plant and Alison Krauss on Raising Sand). Always thought you had something special in the days of Eddie's Attic. Thanks for sharing with your loving fans
I met the man of my dreams online eight months ago... unfortunately he lives across the country. We plan to meet in a couple months for the first time in person... and cannot wait. This song describes how I feel...
I love this song, part of the lyrics I love for it is how I feel for my soon to be born son, the other for my husband when we first met. My two loves of my life...this song fits perfectly.
I just found them, they are so amazing and u just read all of your comments and its just so sad they do look so in love and so sincere. If they already have kids and are married then I sought they will get back together. And I think that they still think about each other even though they are married to someone else. This just looks like such a real and rare love. I hope they get back together.
i don't think it's “internal discord and irreconcilable differences of ambition”. in my wildest dream, they just can't stop the fact that they are falling deeper for each other, and it's impossible for them to continue to make beautiful music together without hurting people around them.
@rebskj96 Tune your guitar to DADGAD, put a capo on the 5th fret, make a C shape and slide it up 2 frets. Everything else can be figured out by watching the video, and of course listening to the audio.
I just love this song. So much. Pretty much the story of my life. Also I would love to know where Joy gets her dresses, they are just so beautiful. Like your bow tie too J P, bow ties are cool
@amylove777 i hear THAT! i AM literally in tears when i hear them. The dynamic of these two together is truly astounding. Pulls at the heartstrings every time!
Why are you so far from me? In my arms is where you ought to be. How long will you make me wait? I don't know how much more I can take. I missed you But I haven't met you Oh but I want to How I do Slowly counting down the days 'Til I finally know your name Oh, the way your hand feels round my waist the way you laugh the way your kisses taste I missed you But I haven't met you Oh but I want to How I do How I do I've missed you But I haven't met you Oh I missed you But I haven't met you Oh but I want to Oh how I want to Dear, whoever you might be I'm still waiting patiently
The way she looks at him....That was the way my wife looked at me. Rest in peace sweetheart, forever missed x
At least we have these videos.
Their music has a simplicity that disguises their superb arrangements and masterful harmonies. Their break-up not only is a blow to the American music scene but a truly sad loss to the thousands of fans who loved them, myself among them.
11 years later. and i still love this. so much.
True ❤
Me too...
They are the only duo like this. And it sucks that they broke up because I will never hear anything as beautiful as the way they sound. Unless someone has any options.
JasColeWood Punch Brothers "Julep"
Swell season
Check out Jason Mrazs recent album "Yes" with Raining Jane....you'll die. ;)
listen to Don't Talk by the Beach Boys and you'll hear something beautiful.
The honeydew drops
It breaks my heart so much to watch these old videos. I wish the band didnt break up
Same... 🙁
The music they made together was beautiful. They were definitely a one of a kid duo. I hope some day in the future they can reconcile and create more beautiful music for us.
When I suffer, I just need something like this soften melodies, deep and gently. Their voices are tenderly like whisper. It calms every angry heart
my heart hurts at the thought they will never perform together again. While their voices are great individually, their harmony together is fantastic. I love The Civil Wars
No one wrote love songs like the Civil Wars...
the way he looks at her at 2:36. and the whole time the way they look at each other. that is apart of what makes them sooo special. please make more music, and look at each other the same...
I feel like I’m not breathing watching them. So enigmatic. They have that gripping hold over you when they’re singing together
This duo, then all the others
They were so beautiful together.
I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant...when I hear this song, I melt. When this baby is able to hear, this is going to be the first song he or she hears. And probrably the song I deliver to. :) John Paul and Joy, you're awesome!!
I played Angels by The xx to my baby since she was born, she melts when she hears it now :)
My daughter is here now and 3 months old (she came early)....she loves this song!!! She grins and smiles whenever I play it!
+Ann Cassidy this is so beautiful
I love The XX also! Not as much as The Civil Wars, but The XX is still a brilliant one of a kind band.
this post made me cry :( lol i hope she your baby is very beautiful
Not one of their songs is bad. They're voiced are perfect together and you can't hate any of their songs.They sing beautiful and i love listening to them...
its so strange to me how in sync they are even in mannerisms and movements...i love their music
I miss you all so, so much.
this song makes me sad. I met this guy Brendan and he sent me this because he lives on the other side of the world. this was like 2/3 years back, and I think of him often.. :(
+Riaz Ali he did touch my soul. He was very special to me.

+Riaz Ali there's more to it obviously but it makes me sad.
it's sad to be you. Just be strong and loyal it'll be alright
Oh i miss you guys
The fact that this duo sounds every bit as good (in my opinion better) live than on record is a testament to their greatness.
I'm currently in a long distant relationship and listening to this is just killing me. I don't know why I keep listening all of your songs, I can't even sing along to this, these songs are just so beautiful and touching.

Wow! I wish I was there🖤

I was just thinking of the same thing.
Y'all need therapy! 😂

@@dettymakesart honestly it was those types of comments that drove them apart. the music world was robbed of a great duo.
I agree because nobody does songs like those without being really in love... it's a soul song, needs and has a real feeling in their words
In my opinion, between 1:20 and 1:35 is the best of John Paul's voice in any song they've done. So beautiful
Civil wars amazing. Shame they are no more I will miss them
When people wonder why I complain about modern music because it has TONS of audio editing in post, this video is why I complain. Because it's the exact opposite of all that! I can hear the hum of the room, their breath, the guitar's subtle inconsistencies, their natural and beautiful voices.
THEY HAVE SO MUCH EMOTION IN EVERYTHING THEY DO MY HEARTTTTTT
I'm so inlove.
I love watching her look at him even after he looks away.
One of the sexiest love songs ever.
This is my all time favorite love song
love this song... everything about it. the title is perfect, lyrics beautiful and your dynamic fortuitously magical (reminds me of Robert Plant and Alison Krauss on Raising Sand). Always thought you had something special in the days of Eddie's Attic. Thanks for sharing with your loving fans

You have your self a new fan. Your talents are undescribable, and you are both beautiful as is your music.

❤️I love this song, so beautiful.
I miss you dear ..
I'll never get over their split 😢
I met the man of my dreams online eight months ago... unfortunately he lives across the country. We plan to meet in a couple months for the first time in person... and cannot wait. This song describes how I feel...

Their elegant voices melt together like sugar on your tongue. Beautiful.
1st time to have online relationship .. im so madly inlove with him .. listening to this song made me ❤️
Just beautiful
I use to only listen to studio versions of songs but Now I love the live raw sound of live recordings
I love this song, part of the lyrics I love for it is how I feel for my soon to be born son, the other for my husband when we first met. My two loves of my life...this song fits perfectly.
I just found them, they are so amazing and u just read all of your comments and its just so sad they do look so in love and so sincere.

Sweet melody and lyrics

in my wildest dream, they just can't stop the fact that they are falling deeper for each other, and it's impossible for them to continue to make beautiful music together without hurting people around them.
The choice to "be together" would have hurt a lot of people they also loved. I had to make a similar choice once...minus the wonderful music.
meaning of my life. and a steel guitar. love the civil wars. no other way around it.
Raw talent at it's finest. Wow!
So, so beautiful!
my absolute favorite of the civil wars. such a beautiful song and their voices are so amazing. acoustic is perfect for them
It is meant to be shared...inspiring others to find their own connectedness...such is the Beauty of authentic musical mastery..
essa é a minha música que quase ninguém conhece e virou meu porto seguro como se fosse escrita só pra mim ❤
Absolutely love their music, please come to San Diego to perform.
I love your voice and melody
and yet another amazingly beautiful song
@rebskj96 Tune your guitar to DADGAD, put a capo on the 5th fret, make a C shape and slide it up 2 frets. Everything else can be figured out by watching the video, and of course listening to the audio.
Love love love this song
I just love this song. So much. Pretty much the story of my life.
