  • Neither House or Vampire Diaries brought me here.

    I've Known about these guys for years.

  • I LOVE CIVIL TWILIGHT

  • Is that dude playing his guitar with a bow? Dude... get out of here! AWESOME!

  • Fuck Vampire Diaries!

    Dr. House MD Frozen!

  • Honestly, this isn't a band I have heard on the radio. It should be on the radio, they deserve the recognition, but sadly they aren't on the radio. They are, however, basically everywhere else. I found out about them when I saw them live with Jimmy Eat World. My bud learned about them from an episode of House MD, and I know they've been in a few movies as well. But how come nobody knows about them?!? It isn't fair!!!

  • Like if Vampire Diaries DIDN'T bring you here, and you just think it's an amazing song.

  • Absolutely in love with this song.

  • House MD S4 E11 brought me here! Frozen

  • this just made me cry.

  • IS HE SERIOUSLY PLAYING THAT GUITAR WITH A VIOLIN BOW.

  • House MD

    

  • How have I only just discovered this song? This is amazing.

  • like when you shave your balls!

  • like if you don't give shit what brought people here!

  • The Vampire Diaries :X:X

  • @Kriptonix94x House MD :XX

  • Once a local SA band and look at them now

  • The lyrics of their songs are so profound..things we always feel but dont have ways to express. They do it very well...perfect music, perfect words.

  • That dude is playing the electric bass with a bow....THAT IS SO BAD ASS!!!!!!

  • love the like-dislike ratio, fuck the 11 people that dont know music:)

  • Wtf is that guy in that back doing with his guitar??? It looks like he's ruining it with that thing you use on a violin or something

    Such a waste of a guitar!

  • @wenoyol123 that thing is called a bow, and it doesn't harm the guitar at all. it's a cool technique. all you have to do is clean the rosin off of the strings when you're finished.

  • Eve though it's a lower tone, it still sounds awesome! :)

  • sounds like coldplay.

    

  • Wrestlemania 26 brought me here.

  • house s04e11 got me here

  • Why can't singers or can actually sing like civil twilight be more appreciated?

  • This is amazing!

  • so sad that this only gets 271,000 views .. people dont know what they are missing!

  • AHEMM... 11 people do not understand what it is to be HUMAN :]

  • 11 people are not people.

  • i LOVE this:D powerful(:

  • AMAZING,SIMPLY AMAZING...(SOB!)

  • i love this song since i heared it the first time in the wrestlemania promo with bret hart an vince mc mahon

  • sounds alot like "Jeff Buckley" singer from Seattle, washington who vanished one night going for a swim, and no one saw him again!!!! PEOPLE if you love this band, look up Jeff buckley and get his music!!!!! same pure beautiful voice like this guy!!!! PLEASE listen to me, you wont regret it!!! JEFF BUCKLEY!!!!

  • @davethecock1 im going to regret arn't I

  • Learned about this band from WWE Wrestlemania Bret Hart vs Vince Mcmahon promo

  • Saw this band open for Jimmy Eat World and loved Letters from the Sky, and now I love this band. This song is absolutely amazing. Great Band!!!!

  • I thought this was radio head for ages couldn't find it under radio so i finally found it.

  • I saw this band as an opener when Anberlin was headlining and they blew Anberlin out of the water.

  • Ten people are not human. At least not at heart that is.

  • I stumbled on this band watching Dog the Bounty Hunter used Human thank you to the show for bring them to me,.

  • Learned about this band from celebrity Rehab .

    They're awesome ! :D

  • @aldopatsy12 Haha I saw that show too :)

  • Learned about this band from Celebrity Rehab (x

  • @aldopatsy12 Me too love Human and Celebrity Rehab

  • @aldopatsy12 ME TOO!

  • @aldopatsy12 ME TOO!

    

  • super amazing!

  • I wonder what the 9 people that disliked this were listening to ... they must be hearing something else.

  • @midnightblue22077 Lmao I just heard it today.. Same place you did!!!!

  • me too! SHAZAM!!! :) 

  • same here...i saw one of their songs on celebrity rehab so i looked up on here...found this song...love it!!! :)

  • @midnightblue22077 hahaha thats where i heard it too!!!!!!!

  • Thank you for your music. Makes the world a better place for me. :) brings me an inner calm and I appreciate your band. Respect.

  • Good stuff

  • awesome

  • Wow this guy sounds like Thom Yorke.

  • 9 people arent human

  • @caprianders they are aliens

  • I absolutely love this band.

    They can make sings that will do very well mainstream wise but they also know how to make REAL music.

    This is REAL music because it provokes something in you everytime when I listen to this I want to cry. They are very well at making a sing emotional. Heck I don't even know all the lyrics yet I can still get the feeling they are putting through.

  • World of Jenks =)

  • i am in love with this song <3

  • My favourite song of all time!!

  • how can anyone dislike this???? :S

  • @Theoneandonlygooner either 9 people accidentally missed the "like" button or they clearly don't know what good music sounds like.

  • my absolute favorite line is "I am just an image of something so much greater, I am just a picture frame, I am not the painter"

  • @clover36952 Mine too! That's the best part of the song! :)

  • WWE

    thank you very much for showing me an awesome some :)

  • @rizvan123456 Yah, i heard this first at WWE too.

  • Does the dude on the background play the violin on a guitar? That is awesome!

  • @toonybee Yea, Andrew (the guitarist) uses the violin bow on a few of Civil Twilight's songs. This whole song and at the beginning of a couple others. Side note... Richard (the drummer) sits this song out.

  • Beautiful. Just beautiful. It's a shame no one listens to this kind of stuff anymore.

  • i really like this song. like legit

  • Good band, but. Seriously clean your leads up.

  • Nice....my favorite is Letters from the sky....

  • Saw these guys open for Anberlin of all bands (I was working the venue) and they totally blew them away - got to meet them all and tell them how awesome they are.

  • @hpsfl Was it in downtown? Civil Twiligh tand Crash Kings opened for Anberlin?

    Anberlin sucked in my opinion. sorry to all their fans readin this, but they were so crowded as a band, too many unneccessary members and ridiculously generic sounding. CT and Crask kings were really really good, first time hearing civil twilight. They were amazing

  • Letters from the sky is now my by far my new fav song. Wonderful guys come to Houston please! Haha god bless

  • i agree with beatjunkie. its so sad what people have the nerve to call music nowadays. this song is simply breath taking and not many people know who they are.

  • - So glad i found this band as soon as i heard ONE song i fell in love.! <3

  • Awesome group! This is talent unlike the pop crap we hear allllllll the time!

  • I love how the guitarist is using a bow to play the guitar...Anyways, great song, absolutely lovely c:

  • 9 justin bieber fans ¬¬'

  • Absolutely tear-jerkingly, heart-achingly beautiful. Consider the album bought...

  • im a new civil twilight fan...im loving all their songs so far!!! think i got a new fav band! :))

  • I saw these guys live last night!!!!!!!

    THEY WERE FLIPPIN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    my favorite one of their songs were letters from the sky...

    i was right up front next to the guitarist

  • Hah never heard of em til I seen them play live last night with cake and smashing pumpkins. Theyre pretty good I like em.

  • can you say the old cold play

  • Their music gives me chills...

  • 100x better than the auto-tuned, back-tracking, so called rap, which i concider shit. Thats played on the radio now a days.

  • Honestly you guys are simply amazing and inspiring,i am a musician that dreams of making music as brilliant as you guys and im south African! Keep on keeping on and God bless1

  • I totally agree ray2259! Their music is absolutely breath taking!

  • amazin

  • its only love its only pain its only fear that runs through my veins.

    i am just a picture frame, i am not the painter... amazing... i cant stop listening to this song

  • american version of sigur ros!!!! killer.. just saw them in concert in austin, tx-- Stubbs BBQ--- 8-27--28-10

  • @Tripp421 South African ;)

  • I can't believe I just stumbled upon these guys...

  • This song is great.... but great great!!

  • i heard this song for the first time at the end of House M.D. : Frozen. im shocked i never heard of the band before.

  • If anyone was wondering, yes they are amazing live. It's because they're talented.

  • love this band...it was amazing when i heard them on House...love that show :)

  • This is a great band, I just found them 5minutes ago and I can say im ording a cd soon. They are probably the next best thing after coldplay. Keep it up.

  • rip Q!!!!

  • This is truly lovely and so haunting. For Ray2259 and others who apprciate this lovely piano music you may want to try albums from the Italian modern classical pianist Ludovico Einaudi. Although purely instrumetal Ludovico's work is so much in the style of this song. Many of Ludovico's songs have been used on TV and in adverts. I recommend to start with the album 'Le Onde' Anyway getting back to Civil Twilight, I am sure they will have an enourmous future ahead.

  • @turnipcheeks

    If you like Einaudi check out the "This is England" soundtrack, he's all over that and its flipping lovely......

  • @turnipcheeks

    Already drowned in Einaudi.. Listen to him constantly. He's amazing.

    I am a big fan of purely instrumental music as well from the likes of Einaudi to producers such as Bonobo and so on( I could list them all but clearly would run out of space lol)

    :)

  • one of itune's best choices for the free single of the week was civil twilight - letters from the sky

    thank you itunes :) and i mean it.

    (even though you piss me off sometimes but it's cool. :P just cuz you introduced me to this band)

  • questa band è fenomenaleeee

  • ray2259...

    /with you...

  • They remind me SO much of Pilot Speed (Pilate, as we knew of them in the early 2000s).

    INCREDIBLE artistry.

  • I'm really happy I watched that episode of Harper's Island. It brought me to Civil Twilight.

  • long live rock bands....

  • This is good but Letters From The Sky is their best song in my opinion.

  • WHY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE SONG THIS MATCH WAS LEGENDARY YOU FUCKING IDIOTS TALK ABOUT THE MATCH!! HBK is the greatest!

  • I love civil twilight. He has an amazing voice and so much talent. Plus they're fro. South africa and I work there in the summers(:

  • bands like civil twilight are what keep the music alive.

  • @davidseidi I totally agree with you this band is remarkable and unforgettable and simply epic.

  • I also stumbled upon this unbelievable band and so glad that I did. (was up all night one night because I had so much on my mind, channel surfed and saw the video for letters from the sky on mtv at around 4am and I was hooked. I LOVE this song!

  • i stumbled upon this band by accident. god i love accidents.

  • @123tanklin me too

  • @123tanklin So did im, im glad i did :)

  • @123tanklin I DID TOO!!!!! I WAS RANDOMLY CLICKING VIDEOS AND I JUST HAPPENED TO CLICK ON THESES GUYS!!!!! NOW I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO EM....

  • @123tanklin Me too. From a free song on itunes. Thank you itunes!!!

  • i love it

  • This song brings tears in my eyes. Every time I hear it, it's new and fresh and pure. I hope these guys get far and remain untouched by the big companies who wish to Popularize every band on earth and earn large bucks from it. It's better to have less money and be honest inside than to sell your soul to devil.

  • @Smilegyrl222

    true but..fact is if they get offered a nice contract to change their style im sure they would jump at it.

  • Believe it or not, these guys are better live than packaged. And they are awesome packaged. I can't even relate their album as an album....it is one song. A song that starts on solid ground and seamlessly transports me throughout the universe of thought. No one title can truly do these guys justice. Not since Pink Floyd have I felt this kind of forceful subtlety.

  • <3 <3 this song is amazing, everytime i hear it. The singer has the most different and distuinguishable voice from any other's. It's so different and unique, and so refreshing. it's so crystal clear, and they are a great band. All of there songs are different and they really reach out and are very touching. I love letters from the sky. Very good band, one of my favorites.

  • A Bow for the guitarist? wow ok sigur ros style...
