    Here’s what I can’t understand: These two sisters from Sweden, too young to remember Kenny Rogers or Emmylou Harris in their respective heydays, understand on a cellular level the essence of American country music better than most Americans do. How the HELL is that possible? (Not that I’m complaining...please, ladies, keep up the good work.)

      +Geoff Lilley In an interview with Rolling Stone, Klara and Johanna listed that one of their major musical influences was the original Carter Family. Anyone that familiar with the Carter Family will have a firm, deep, instinctual level of feeling and understanding about American Music, Folk, Country and otherwise!

      No way they did a terrible version. The way they are singing it is too soft and mushy. This isn't a love song it's a story about a gambler. This is awful and they keep singing ahead of the music. Lol

    these 2 young ladies are so good that a tune like this one by Kenny Rogers, which I personally can't stand, sounds good when performed by these 2 talented women. I've seen them perform Emmy Lou to Led Zeppelin and all I can say is BRAVO!!!!

    Despite their beautiful individual voices, for me the song starts with their harmonies, at "if you're gonna play the game, boy". Rest in peace, Kenneth Ray Rogers.

    I have loved this song as long as I can remember....40plus years lol! I follow First Aid Kit, obviously. I appreciate their unique style and clever lyrics! When they started singing THE GAMBLER, I started sobbing and could not stop through out the entire song. The ladies out did themselves! I am sure Kenny is proud!

    Another marvelous cover by the Söderberg sisters. Only God knows how many jewels they have in their pockets. Have all their albums and had the pleasure to see them in concert in a small club in Hamburg twice. First time, it was a cold evening in September 2012 , I was waiting togheter with a friend in front of the venue, about two hours before the show, hoping to get the opportunity to talk to them, as suddenly Klara and Johanna rushed out of the main entrance, followed by their father and the drummer. They were only 10 feet away from us but we were both too starstruck to say anything and so they dissapeared into the dark. On one hand it was a sad moment because we missed the chance to talk to them on the other hand we can still laugh about the fact that two die hard Springsteen and Dylan fans became totally speechless in the presence of these young ladys. Anyway, as long as we all are patiently waiting for the new album and hopefully for a tour, we can count ourselves lucky that the girls provide us with such excellent covers like this.

      I had a similar experience in November 2012 at The Ritz in Manchester. I was watching their support act and someone stood next to me. It took me a while to realise it was Klara. I was completely star struck. Someone dragged her away for a photo but she came back. I eventually plucked up the courage to ask for an autograph on my ticket stub, realised I had no pen but managed borrowed one...I felt an absolute idiot but she was utterly charming

    On a warm summer's evening
    On a train bound for nowhere
    I met up with a gambler
    We were both too tired to sleep
    So we took turns a-starin'
    Out the window at the darkness
    The boredom overtook us
    And he began to speak
    He said, "Son, I've made a life
    Out of readin' people's faces
    And knowin' what the cards were
    By the way they held their eyes.
    So if you don't mind my sayin'
    I can see you're out of aces
    For a taste of your whiskey
    I'll give you some advice."
    So I handed him my bottle
    And he drank down my last swallow
    Then he bummed a cigarette
    And asked me for a light
    And the night got deathly quiet
    And his face lost all expression
    Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy,
    You gotta learn to play it right.
    You got to know when to hold 'em,
    Know when to fold 'em,
    Know when to walk away,
    And know when to run.
    You never count your money
    When you're sittin' at the table.
    There'll be time enough for countin'
    When the dealing's done.
    Every gambler knows
    That the secret to survivin'
    Is knowin' what to throw away
    And knowin' what to keep.
    'Cause every hand's a winner,
    And every hand's a loser,
    And the best that you can hope for
    Is to die in your sleep."
    And when he finished speakin'
    He turned back toward the window
    Crushed out his cigarette
    And faded off to sleep
    And somewhere in the darkness
    The gambler he broke even
    And in his final words
    I found an ace that I could keep

    Know when to walk away
    And know when to run

    When the dealin's done
    You've got to know when to hold 'em (when to hold 'em)
    Know when to fold 'em (when to fold 'em)
    Know when to walk away
    And know when to run
    You never count your money
    When you're sittin' at the table
    There'll be time enough for countin'
    When the dealin's done
    You've got to know when to hold 'em
    Know when to fold 'em
    Know when to walk away
    And know when to run
    You never count your money
    When you're sittin' at the table
    There'll be time enough for countin'
