ya, he has Johnny Depp looks and she's so ridiculously hot that he's lucky that guitar of his didn't ignite into spontaneous combustion....and then there's the music....they have it all!!!
the thing is that there's no need for drums or bass at all, he's doin' it all on his guitar and that heartbeat bass drum sound just makes the performance, first time in too long i've been excited about an artist/band, perfection !
i love how they get into the music. most artist just stand there and sing and maybe close their eyes. but these two actually move to their music and you know they love what they do. one of my favorite bands. would love to see them come to my state.
This is by far the best song that takes real talent then all the bull shit these days. music would be so much better if there were singers like this that have a little bit of everything in, i have been trying to learn this song and its just pure amazing screw the new shit this is where its at
This is so amazing. I'd like to see chart toppers on the radio perform live like this & bring actual soul to their music rather than pyrotechnics & complicated dance routines to distract from their actual lack of talent.
The Civil Wars are amazing. It's nice to know that there are actual musicians out there who don't need fancy equipment worth more than anyone's life time work. All it takes is a guitar, you, and a friend if you wish.
I dont know why but this reminds me of that SNL skit with Will Ferrel and that other female cast member when they are educating the school through their comedic music. I think its the way the girl moves in this vid. Great Performance.
@bexxa99 Well, she's a piano player so I think she just has a natural inclination to put her hands up in that position. That or she's just unsure of what to do with them. Haha.
This appearance was my very first exposure to The Civil Wars!! I just happened to stay up to see who Jay had on as a music guest that night, and now I've had the pleasure of seeing them live and they're one of my favorite bands!!
everybody yall stoopid stop saying this is cool yall dont even know where the music video took place so yall need 2 shut up by the way in Minor hill,Tennessee
good song, but it is missing on crucial truth point: The blood of Christ is enough to cover all our sin (1 john 1:7). no one is beyond God's forgiveness! like i said, beautiful song, but its msg is off base.
I agree with you on that, and the funny thing is that Joy Williams used to be a popular Christian artist with a couple of decent songs that got pretty good Christian radio time a few years back. I found The Civil Wars on a whim recently and looked to see if it was the same girl and it was. She must have an interesting change in heart in the last few years, not to say that a Christian cannot represent Christ in mainstream music, but I just hope she keeps her head on straight
