Falling // The Civil Wars

[allisonnicholer]

This is Beautiful music to my ears!!!:) <3

[caitibug022]

they have SUCH an amazing chemistry! proud to have lives these two before the lime light!

[stigmataji]

Oh they are sooooo beautiful, I love them. xxx

[crockingmadness]

mesmerism.. probably the best world to describe this song.. 

[BOOMHeadshotBiiatch]

wonderful break-up song :P

[radiantrebirth]

oh and btw they are not married... look up theit website... they even said that if they were together the lyrics would probably be different :P

[radiantrebirth]

beautiful voices and amazing lyrics!

I love them both

[JaguarEarlobe]

Her soul is flying out of her mouth right at him!

I'm surprised he isn't drowning.

[vincywinsy]

@genmgoad wait..what? they are actually married for several years now..so yes..the are having a romantic affair..

[llcullen37studios]

Beautiful. Makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

[BL4CKC4TMEG]

This is just perfect<3

[PEACEMAN3325]

Chills*



[PEACEMAN3325]

WOW, I have chilss from this song!

[yalnizmatmazel]

why this song has a dislike button ?

[79Jamiep]

Man I love these guys..

[annacabana12]

She has such incredible control with her voice! They both put so much emotion into their music, and it gets me choked up every time. I praise the day I came across The Civil Wars on Vh1!!

[katwalker8]

Gorgeous, just gorgeous.

[toothums]

They are beautiful along with their music.

[FlyFireFighter]

Amazing! So Simple, yet so Powerful. 

[FlyFireFighter]

there are 18 idiots, that have heard this.

[MrIsairivera]

Reminds me of Johnny Cash and his wife how they use to gase into each others eyes with so much passion while singing...... They would make such a great couple. It sucks there married to other people

[karpaccho]

@MrIsairivera : I guess their marriages "to the other people" wouldn't last that long while they would be on the tour 24 hrs together with each other. "the other people" would not be able to compete with this creative closeness.

[xoxAshh137]

this gives me chills every time

[AmandaMarkleyMusic]

Beautiful song! I want to learn it to do a cover!

[xCosmicSociety]

@incrediblemole wtf is a comment like that???????? we appreciate music like this, if you dont then YOU should can it.

[jaspersmine4ever]

Pure talent ...honesty the best song ever

[Blumersai]

It's magic!!!!

[incrediblemole]

shitty music can it bitch

[ShadowChancellor]

@incrediblemole I'm sure we have all benefited from your insightful comment, but if you choose to continue gracing youtube with your...(insert euphemism) please refrain from doing it on videos that contain good music.

[DeadlySilence3]

I command all who love The Civil Wars to send this to all their friends, post on facebook, and talk about them where ever you may go to who ever you may meet, lets get this duo to the top of every chart going.....

[Butttercup22]

@DeadlySilence3 i do!

[zazzaqoo791]

Her voice seeps into my soul & lights my emotions up

[CJPStaff]

Listening to their entire CD on the final ballot (Grammy 2012) as folk music which this truly is a great CD of music. The CD is polished but this shows that the diamond was there all along.

God blesses us with their vocal blend and music. Thank you!

[MissRitaChristine]

It's like they're one person, they seem so close, in every way. I think that's what makes their music so beautiful.

[LeightonESmith]

this is heartbreakingly beautiful

[mathandsciencerocks]

i love they're style. it's so classic and beautiful

[FaithJudgeLucy]

He's got pipes too...

[shazele]

i see a light saber... with no red handle <3

[Zaynea24]

Gives me chills everytime...

[the4everyoung4ever]

incredible...they are lovely

[implosive00]

can't describe how sweet they are....

[25keato8]

i love this. its insanely gorgeous, their voices just mesh so beautifuly together, its amazing..

[ibraahee]

240p like a pro :D x

[JesaStar]

The two of you brought chills to me. There is something so perfect and beautiful about your harmony. I look for inspiration in everything... thank you for the inspiration!

[julieee408]

There shouldn't even be a dislike button on this song!

[Cotterized1974]

Just found you all! Amazingly beautiful intonation and surprisingly complex for just a guitar and two voices! Although style may be a bit different, your chemistry reminds me a lot of Karen and Don Perris of the Innocence Mission whom I also love! Lyrically masterful!! ;-)

[tammisings]

Oh GOD! they are beautiful... why did i not start to listen to them earlier.

[harmonythouart]

this isn't about god... Its about feeling like you're going through the motions in your relationship and its so obvious that your partner must know that you aren't in love with them anymore...but they keep trying to convince you that you're happy when you're not. You feel guilty and don't move on b/c you're are worried about everyone else...but you finally realize that you have to let them go b/c you can't help that you fell out of love with them.

[Wendellerins]

@jjj1951 Indeed, who could not like this song? I mean really?

[CheerfulNat]

I love this song, but PLEASE can someone give me an explanation for the lyrics?? The way they sing is beautiful, but I thought Joy was Christian, what else would she be singing about besides her love for God?

[tanjida2008]

They're not married to each other, so stop assuming that they have some sort of relationship going on.

However, I HAVE to simply say that the chemistry between them is absolutely brilliant. Even in their 'Poison & Wine' video where they're looking into each other's eyes..and makes us think they're going to kiss.

Anyways, this song is amazing; their voices are in PERFECT synch to each other. It's hauntingly beautiful.

They need to come to England to tour.

[apr28]

@tanjida2008 They are coming to the UK! Check out their website. 8 shows, and another in Dublin!

[tanjida2008]

@apr28 Gosh, you seem excited. It's not like I can see them anyways, their UK tour is during my exams. Unlucky.

[lcdcjal]

The only negative point of these two is that it's impossible to sing along because you simply ruin it. lol. It's so damn beautiful and perfect that the only thing I feel allowed to do is close your eyes and listen.

[14Kpurdy]

I'm breaking the replay button...I think.

[missingyou90s]

she's got pipes

[Burncourtable]

Their both married and Joy is very christian

[mbbondslady]

Yes I think they are having an affair too. Maybe they will end up like the Johnny Cash story.



[ubilina]

Remember me to Jesse & Joy, but by their own way

[bamskibabyskin23]

Im in love!

[Burncourtable]

Haunting. She sounds a lot like Lisa Hannigan. Even looks a bit like her

[JacobFCO]

@Burncourtable I've been saying that a Lisa Hannigan/Civil Wars tour would be amazing. I wouldn't say she sounds a lot like Lisa, maybe just a little.

[UncleJohnSawbriar]

Absolutely beautiful... 'nuff said.

[Highlikeheaven89]

This song is so incredibly powerful.

[medicinegone]

I spent the past 30min sitting here going through your vids. You guys are great. Don't change. Thanks.

[dieseldonzo2]

i stumbled on these guys and i just love this band

[rebsrebs13]

blatantly having an affair with eachother.

[sungyimsungyim]

Their harmonies are utterly orgasmic. And they sound pretty much EXACTLY the same live. We need more musicians with this kind of talent.

[CR0NUS47]

@sungyimsungyim First we need more musicians

[sungyimsungyim]

@CR0NUS47 Nice one.

[JesusisLord23175]

They are such great singers, and they are both married to different people. I would be so nervous, if he was my husband, and she's so close to him in more aspects than his wife: musically, being with him more, standing so close, ect!!!

[srvsgal]

@JesusisLord23175 AGREED their chemistry is amazing.



[78KevinHayes]

Why oh why are they playing the Madison? That's in Covington, KY and it's kind of scary there. You have to park away from the venue and walk to it on the city streets and it is general admission.Across the river in Cincinnati there's the Aronoff center,Music Hall,Taft Theater. This is where the Civil Wars belong....,classier joints. The theater at Northern Kentucky University would be nice too.

[memokral12]

One word : Oh my goodness... Sorry it's not one word forgive me.

[MYMICHELLE70]

houston too!

[cathyformusa]

YUM!!

[ranmil381]

beautiful voice control and harmony...truely amazing!!!!1

[indigenous4logic]

they're great...just so beautiful....♫Logic~♥~

[Demmm7]

The harmonies and mood in this song remind me of a band called Fields. It's like if you take this style of music, Plug it in, up the tempo a bit, and produce it.

Search for the Song "School Books" by Fields

[jjj1951]

I tend to believe that there are persons who spend all their time on YouTube going from music video to music video just hitting the dislike button regardless of the quality of music.

[TheGreenecountytech]

anyone else think its scary how much he looks like johnny depp

[alshybobbers]

She's s wee pump.

[vincentg88]

what a sad song

[WorldUnderOneGod]

You guys are just tooooo amazing! Beautiful harmony. Gets me every time.

[Spudsie1000]

Come to Ireland and trio with Lisa Hannigan! Now THAT would be an interesting ménage!

[JacobFCO]

@Spudsie1000 That would be so awesome. I would love to see a Civil Wars/Lisa Hannigan tour and even have them play together for a few songs.

[AubrynSong]

Perfection.

[ThatDonovanKid]

i hope they have good breath.

[keikoasmom]

Beautiful, mysterious, haunting and lovely....

[maysh83]

I have listened to this song a countless number of times and I still get chills.

[daddysgirl201071]

She has such a beautiful voice

[caldwellguy]

@daddysgirl201071 She's either a magnificent angel sent to sooth the soul or the devils pide piper. Either way, I'm in 100%.

[njochara]

I am in love with the two of you and this song well all your songs but this is so so lovely and sad and lovely.

[DementedBunnyofDoom]

What a wonderful voice you have ~

Please bring more music like this!<3

[That253Chick]

This is REAL music right here. Love them.

[laniedaniels]

Sooooo beautiful :)

[MrPaco305]

Every song of thiers is just FLAWLESS!!

[0xOBIEx0]

I really wish they do a cover of "Where wild roses grow". It would be perfect

[pinky12488]

Just... amazing. A girl at my school did a dance to this and now I'm completely in love with this song.

[sasukeuchihalb]

Simply amazing. Their harmony is perfect and I never lost interest once. Please, keep this great music alive! Thank you (:

[SarahOrias]

replay!

[Stillsurfing]

These two completely send me. It's so hypnotic. Wow....

[LadyeXo]

I wish I didn't live this.

[damidgiteer]

I saw you two tonight!!!! Amazing in Montreal :) This one gave me chills

[DakotaDawnna]

A girl in one of my classes at school sang this song for a project she did about lost children, I loved her cover, I love this song now,

[jacnatsam]

This is unbelievably beautiful beyond anything I've heard in my life.

[swethaganeshpondy]

my moooooooooooost favvorite song in d world!!

you guys are the best>my favorite artists! love from India

[simplisitty]

I guess like everybody else I just discovered them on the letterman they woke me out of my sleep they are amazing

[wyovixen]

me three ;) as to hearing them for the first time on Letterman. I love the balance between the male and female. This song is so poignant... "I can't help falling OUT of love with you" So brutally honest and hauntingly beautiful at the same time. Love it.

[riamonger]

just saw them on Letterman too....good thing I got home a couple of minutes early.....

[CFCanadian]

Just discovered you two right now on David Letterman's show. Glad I did!

[rachelefisher13]

i think these lyrics seriously explain when you want to be with someone and desperately want to love them, but you cant, no matter what you do, youve fallen out of love, and you cant change it.

[jayebird44yates]

this is gorgeous and a lot of other songs that they do as this is beautiful voices and music!

[iamgian]

Holy crap. Their voices haunted my mind the whole night last night

[dawgpost90]

8 deaf people didn't like the picture quality

[ArtSmarts41293]

This song is so captivating, I've lost track how many times I've listened to it.

[swethaganeshpondy]

i have heard this song like 200 times this month!!

and i still cant get enough!!!

looooove d civilwars <3

[coleman11560]

AMAZING AND POWERFUL

[rosieandaly]

so beautiful! 

[KINDOMHEARTSLOVER]

If I was ursala, I would skip stupid Ariel and go for Joy's voice

[TheFletch827]

@KINDOMHEARTSLOVER Lol. Funny comment.

[MrsSeasideSadie]

I've done a bit of research and, no, they would seem to be only songwriting/singing partners - both married to others. The interview on YouTube makes me love them even more!

[littlemissy10056]

im 10, and i heard this song. when i heard it i just thought, this is real music. everyone seems rubbish now!! i feel like i know them, even though i dont ( i wish i did!!! ) ive bought there album, and when i bought , i felt like thats the most positive thing ive bought. ROCK ON CIVIL WARS!!! p.s one day we will be doing a feature together xD

[MrsSeasideSadie]

Are they not married to each other?!



[littlemissy10056]

@MrsSeasideSadie i dont think so, but to have harmonies that tight, they have to be real close, maybe there family, sibs even!?

[SubsistenceSC]

@littlemissy10056 No, they're not even married.

[churchpool]

Sweet as nectar guys. Wow. Thanks. Just boo full. X

[TheManicAddict]

God, those uneasy sounding chords along with her voice on the second verse. Just gives me the chills down my spine every time. I love this song.

[13BrokenWing]

Her voice is haunting... i love it.

[lovesick44melody]

this has easily become one of my favorite songs ever.

[docravinsky]

Don't read too much into their physical language. When you are in harmony with the "choir invisible" ; the music transcends.

There's a Lee Hazlewood/Nancy Sinatra-ness about them though

[supercoolmusician]

wow

[yogoqueen]

this is so awk.

[AnnabelleLucy100]

Beautiful <3

[mrplainclothesman]

lyrics and harmonies are interesting but their melody's are a bit of a snooze fest...i prefer the Swell Season.

[tyger0603]

all i can say is..Thank you.

[TAYLORHWALL]

excellent!!!

[MissJuliaJupiter]

This song makes me cry. It's so beautiful.

[WhootWednesdays]

Oh my lanta...

[robinann28]

[grimslider75]

Music isn't dead yet, thank goodness...

[IAmCrockatteer]

@grimslider75 If it weren't for these guy it would be! It's all stuff like Lil Wayne that kills music!

[phailingtoimpress]

240p. We meet again.

[orianna2509]

[LundPandora]

I love to dance to this, alone or with my best friend. I love the music they make :)

[sammymonkey3]

[1988fordranger4x4]

[IAMLEANNE]

Saw you perform at hammersmith on the 20th I'm a new huge fan! Love your music

[sweepsit1]

If this is the first DAMN......

[JamieLangerz3]

So much passion, so much love; if only these two had children together, the kids would be musically unstoppable!! (:

And damn good looking!

[DToneQuest]

very cool, reminds me allot of the once album soundtrack and that is a huge compliment

[xECSxBuRnS]

I just Love all Civil Wars songs, they are so beautiful.

[fablesings]

So so heartbreakingly beautiful! Saw them as support at an Adele concert, youtubed them as soon as I got home. Fast becoming my favourite band. I could listen to them forever and a day.

[IndiaLovee95]

i love these people, they are freaking amazing! neer would have guessed they sounded like this if i saw them first. The song POISON AND WINE brought me here :)

[goodsie]

I heard The Civil Wars on NPR about a year ago, and randomly bought their album today. I am in love. I also like how they sort of remind me of the Alison Krauss/Robert Plant album from a few years ago. I am now a dedicated fan.

[xoxTommysGirl87xox]

in love with the CIVIL WARS just so I can clarify haha

[xoxTommysGirl87xox]

lmao I know... I keep doing that I'm thinking of the band name but keep saying.. or typing that song name

[Squooshiee]

7 people are tone deaf

[iamlegend1116]

i saw u guys at adele

[xoxTommysGirl87xox]

I'm in love with the Barton Hollow's! Thank you so much Kevin.. bassist of Unspoken also found on here lol for turning me on to them :) you guys should Check out Unspoken if you haven't already My best friend is the bassist they are really good guys, and they have an awesome sound



[Tayboparoobop]

@xoxTommysGirl87xox They are called the Civil Wars not the Barton Hollow's :) Just so you know.

[05seizetheday08]

Incredible. Simply incredible. I can't stop listening to this <3

[1988fordranger4x4]

Great song!

[MrsCharlesLindsay]

their music is hypnotic

[justxomexobutton]

I just realized that this is Joy Williams! I am so shocked! I used to listen to her christian music when I was younger, I can't believe I didn't recognize her voice. Just beautiful <3

[3lullabies]

she is awesome,i like her because her and bjork sound alot alike.

[TREACHEROUSxSTREETS]

This song gives me the chills... in a good way. I love it.

[MsWickedthings]

I just think you two are amazing.... breathtaking really and truly!

[MyBestiesrAwellsome]

I just found out that the girl Joy Williams used to be a really famous Christian artist... I have a ton of her solo music! Love this stuff!

[carynbodin]

Amazing display of two voices so intimately intertwined. You guys amaze me every time I hear you.

[ssstewart246]

i love how they are always facing eachother or so close and bonded. its inspiring almost

[Matrix848877]

Kinda reminds me of the swell season
