when they're talking in interviews, they're like family. even though they're both just very close friends in all other aspects of life, when it comes to music they're so perfect for each other <3
just so beautiful, to be honest don't care if he looks like Johnny Depp and don't care if they're married to each other or other people the music is sensational, their chemistry is wonderful, their love of the music they sing is palpable and makes you believe in the true power of music and surely that's all that really matters...???
I just don't get it! They're both married to different people but the way they LOOK at each other. It's so loving and when they sing, it's like they're in a love-filled bubble of their own...
Apparently they are both married to different people, but after seeing this video its hard to believe that they are not actually in love with each other. the way they wistfully look at eachother
@N0Negatives EXACTLY RIGHT! I was thinking how I was almost interrupting/eavesdropping on that private conversation but I think that makes the music all the better.
This song is unbelievably amazing...I agree...but I have to say, if it wasn't for the song "Safe and Sound" by Taylor, I wouldn't have found The Civil Wars. And I'm not really a fan of Taylor Swift but Safe and Sound is a great song.
@Elimination135 As well as the song with Taylor The Civil Wars also have another song on The Hunger Games soundtrack. They are heading for the REALLY big time. And a more deserved success story you couldn't wish to find. These guys have worked their socks off for almost 3 years to get recognised. It's all starting to pay off now. So pleased for them.
@Chantalio11 I saw them perform February 2nd in Tampa. The lead singer of the opening band kept calling him "Pirates of the Carribbean" LOL It was an amazing show!
I love this, you remind me of the movie Once. I know it's not the same style of music or similar sound and what not, but both sounds remind me of eachother. May just be the intimacy.
it's like they just grabbed a camera guy, went into the middle of the woods and dropped this devastatingly beautiful song effortlessly. i watch this video daily at least once, and am just captivated by it every time. probably the best 3:28 on youtube.
I have a male friend whom I admire and love and vice versa but we both are in love with other people. There is no chemistry between us except when we work together....I wonder if these two have the same dynamic. Love their work!
Wow great chemistry. But I guess its just like actors, where when theu are working they heave freat chemistry, but they are actually in love woth other people.
why dont they just leave their spouses and get married already? Everyone knows they're going to, just like emma watson and rupert grint are gonna get married... duh.
Had no idea til i logged onto youtube 2nite that they weren't 2gether, after i saw this video the other nite, i KNEW for sure that they was husband and wife... GREAT chemistry..... spouses watch out! Lol, just jokin...... ?
Every video I watch I can't take my eyes off of them. I love the way they look at each other. It just proves how strong music's bonds can make with people.
Here's what bugs me- they keep moving around the screen, which is really annoying. Also, they are basically whispering and swallowing words. I have no idea what they are saying.
@bhstone1 this is exactly what i love about this vid. feels like we're spying on this really intimate conversation between 2 ppl (i'm aware this isn't a love song, but it feels intimate none the less.)
I first listened to this duo last year, can't believe I haven't purchased Barton Hollow yet! I totally recognized the back-drop for this video, the redwoods are just humbling and awe inspiring, walked through them twice. Awesome music, awesome nature.
Wow these two are amazing. I'm going to go buy every song they have on Itunes. Please do the same if you like them people. Watching them on youtube is great and everything but when you find groups that you really love, you gotta return the favor and buy their songs. Hard to keep making music when you're broke unless you want to stand on a corner with your hat on the ground.
Why does anybody assume they are married? That is so moronic. Just two friends making music is all it is. I guess people just can't see that men and women as individuals. But then again, most people in our culture are pretty stupid.
@mojobutta Just because a guy and a girl sing together doesn't mean they are "together" BUT to assume that nobody would see them as a couple is stupid and/or naive. Just because you are not smart enough to see why they could appear as a couple does not mean that others are stupid.
@logipi79 Dude: You have a lot to learn. S. Freud said it best: "Never argue with an idiot". Also, your grammar is atrocious and it seems you're not very educated either. Good day sir.
I'd consider myself extremely blessed if I'm ever able to find even one person to create music with in which I have as great of a connection as they have. What's brilliant about these two is that they're nearly siblings and they just click and their voices mesh together in the coolest way. I'd love to find a band mate that fit my voice my voice so perfectly.
I havnt been watching them for a long time, but every video i've seen of them singing together, the love is just overwhelming, one day i want to find that for myself :)
@RubicsCubeHeros It's crazy because the man has a wife, and it's not her! I really convinced myself they were a couple, but on one of their live shows on here they said he's got a wife.
Officially addicted to them.

How when watching them, you feel as if you've intruded on the panging tension of two people who love each other but are not together.
How once you start listening, you never want to stop.
