I’m still heartbroken about their break up

No autotune. No fancy processing. No studio tricks. No sampled riffs from someone else's record. A real guitar and two voices...beautiful. We don't get to experience this too much these days. Listen how they both control their dynamics. Simply amazing.

How do EITHER of their respective spouses watch them on stage together, with THAT much Vocal, AND personal chemistry and NOT question why they aren't together at least a little bit? They are musically perfect for each other, and I think that dynamic of being able to have such chemistry, but hold each other musically accountable, and be honest with one another the way you might not always be able to be with a spouse is what makes their music so great. Still, the chemistry and very hard to miss.

I've never seen a more symbiotic relationship in music than these two. They were one. Miss them.

Then you obviously haven't heard of the everly brothers.

They were such a special duo that ended way too soon. I hope someday they will reunite.

the first song they wrote together, it remained their best. god i miss them

omg this performance is so emotional. I find it funny that they felt the need to mention that his wife was in the audience. You can tell me a million times that there was nothing going on between them and I wouldn't believe it. So much magic!

I think something did happen and their spouses (Joy is married too) probably gave the ultimatum of “you either quit playing music with them or I’m leaving”. I can’t think of any other reason besides that. Unless they just didn’t get along off stage. I’ve been in bands like that.

Believe it. They both have families they love. John Paul was a successful musician and producer before and after the Civil Wars. He has a beautiful family and his own studio in the famed Muscle Shoals area. A real fan would know their history and not just go on with histrionic nonsense that is hurtful to their families. They have spouses and children you know. He has a house full. And parents still living.

i genuinely think joy has the most beautiful singing voice in the world

I miss them

The chemistry here, unbelievable. Best performance by a duo ever.

That chemistry is also what broke them up Sadly

This is what you call hauntingly beautiful.

Pure quality on so many levels……..

No other will ever do harmonies as good as them

Watching this is like an emotional roller coaster. Goodness gracious. So much happiness, but so much sadness. I love them so much.

This is the most incredible performance I’ve ever witnessed. Everything about this is magic.

So amazing! First song they wrote together... Live performance!! Harmony! This entire concert is beautifully done!

Very emotional.

I miss music like this... good quality and heartfelt

I want nothing more than to see them perform. The way they express their emotions when their singing are so real and raw! I love them so much! I'm crying right now.

Of all their songs from this performance, this is where Joy really excels. She KILLS it!!!

This song is my favorite Civil Wars song. The guitar line is just amazing, and the vocals and harmonies blow my mind. Better live than on the recording.

July 2023. Still one of the best performances on record.

My favorite version of this song- Joy just kills the vocal and John Paul is there matching her intensity with the harmony. So very good.

This is the song that cemented my loyalty and fan devotion to these two for life.

this is my all time favorite and the cover songs such as Billy Jean are done in such a magical way it brings a fresh newness i keep watching more and more of their work

Who’s here in 2020?! This band was magic. Beautiful music

Chemistry is insane!!!

Dawn Scott makes one wonder what happened?! hmmmm... : )

The music moves her in ways it should move everyone as I'm sure it does to many who listen to their music. I can't help finding myself swaying like she does, and the way he plays that guitar, both holding an emotion that is unbelievable... Anyone who can't see this obviously doesn't understand music.

I love how at times, Joy sings in accompaniment/enthusiasm with John even though she's not truly on mic. There's heart : )

Its more powerful that they're not in a relationship. Their chemistry is so amazing. I'd kill for those harmonies!

Reminds of how much can be done with a guitar and 2 voices. 2 very good voices

I don't know how, but this song continues to give me chills every time, regardless of how many times i play it over and over again. suffice to say, the civil wars are one of a kind.

Whaddafuck? Why are there tears in my eyes? Hahaha. Strong stuff. Knowing what became of this amazing duo makes this song have an even stronger effect on me. Chills and feels throughout the whole song.

@Cindy Moring They has a falling out and don’t perform together anymore.

Achieving fame is NOT a 9 to 5 job, guys. Once you reach that pinnacle, it takes removing yourself completely from the publics' eye to regain your privacy. The only thing wrong with that is the public tends to forget about what they don't see on a regular basis. Hopefully John Paul will realize how disappointed his fans are and reappear to make beautiful music with Joy. They are something special.

One of the most beautiful songs

Never has a song about a dying relationship been so beautiful. So much intensity for guitar and voice

This gives me goose bumps everytime I hear it! (And I watch this video about twenty times a day, so thats a lot of goose bumps).

Such a beautiful performance...

She,s so good!

She gives me chills every time, so amazing

they are so simple, and yet so majestic...........

the reason people dont cheer during there performances is because they are mesmerized by the flawless beauty of the performance !!!

One of the only bands that I like live 😍 absolutely amazing

I can't help but think that this song is about the relationship between the two of them..

I love joy, every time she smiles I have to smile too, she is soo beautiful! They are truly amazing! I wish they get the attention they deserve soon, like they just won 2 grammys but they didn't even show it! They did while the show was on commercial!

Dammit her voice is amazing!

Dear Heaven...killer!!!

the civil wars album is always on repeat if i nap in the evening. it's so relaxing to listen to!

this song sounds so sad, and just sad... Like the scene is dark and grey... and then the sun comes out, and it rains... Just the song is just so dang beautiful... Can't wait for the video to come out... To see what they come out as... Just like poison and wine.. That video is just so pretty... and keeps my heart warming up to them.

They are such talented skilled musicians. I can't even fathom these performances.

What can be said that hasn't already been said. These two are so special. Get back together please.

that dude has a sick accent/voice even just talking before signing

I swear this is the only music that could sing me to sleep. I love it!!!!!!!

This is one of worst feelings to have and they've captured it perfectly...

I kept expecting a "flyleaf/Evanescence" heavy guitar riff to kick in, great stuff.

I love them! Their voice together is so awesome and everything gets perfect when I listen them. And falling it's like one of my favorites songs from TCW.

perfect way to start a morning

They were on GMA last week, Joy was prego, and still sounded awesome. She obviously has an amazing voice, but after listening to them for a while, I have to say John Paul does too. Neither one carries the other. This along with some clever covers and eerily and ominous (in a good way) music make them perhaps the most authentic duo in music today.

It was so good, I forgot it was live, and not recorded with professional equipment.

Lyrics: Haven't you seen me sleepwalking 'cause I've been holding your hand Haven't you noticed me drifting Oh Let me tell you I am Tell me it's nothing Try to convince me that I'm not drowning Oh Let me tell you I am Please Please tell me you know I've got to let you go I can't help falling out of love with you Ooh Why I am feeling so guilty Why I am holding my breath Worry about everyone but me and I just keep losing myself Tell me it's nothing Try to convince me that I'm not drowning Oh Let me tell you I am Please Please tell me you know I've got to let you go I can't help falling out of love with you Won't you read my mind Don't you make me like you And I hear Please Please tell me you know I've got to let you go I can't help falling out of love with you With you Ooh Ooh Haven't you noticed I'm sleepwalking

Just realized he uses the same epiphone that I own. Love that guitar

I don’t know who loves who more. Or whose more captivated by the other. Like old souls. That’s what makes it magical, and passionate. You just don’t feel chemistry, you feel the passion in their voice. You don’t know where his love begins or where hers ends. It just flows together in the circle, chemistry, union.

They make you believe in reincarnation and soulmates finding each other again

Stupendous performance. Lukewarm applause. Some people

They did these songs live on my birthday!

That tension, i suppose, is what makes them so alluring..!

Love how much emotion is shown in this performance. More so than anyother performance from this night.

my favorite song in the whole entire world.

This is the best "Falling" presentation i've seen !!!

have been right with thecivilwars since this song came out on youtube and all i can say is thanks civilwars for everything inbetween;}

GAH! They're so perfect! My friend Stephanie and I were in our friend's studio recording our cover of this song and we left with a very spiritual feeling. That's just how powerful this song is.

This is extremely beautiful...

Emotional is a gross understatement to all this song is. It's amazing they can create something so whimsical and gripping with just a guitar and two voices.

so much chemistry that they have together you would think they are couple so beautiful they are not together and they can share something that alot of married people don't share

fantastic. can only imagine how much greater a studio production of this song would be. You're blessed.

Her voice is sooooooooo amazing, in love with her voice!!!

One week on from my last post, a dozen more listens, and .... Magnificent !

Seriously, I can't stop watching this video, I really love this live!

Favorite song.

I love how all they need is a guitar to sound beautiful. Even without it they would STILL sound great.

It breaks my heart that they don't make any more beautiful music together :[

This is literally perfection

Wow, first song? It's my favorite!! I love this one! They are so amazing live! I was so lucky to see them! I love these guys!!

tears of being moved....lovely!

this. is. stunning.

Simply mesmerising.

they trully speak my heart song, but this song helped me lift my head up out of the water...

Damn they were great. So thankful I got to see them in Oklahoma City back in 2011. Wish they could have worked it out.

I like This version but the original on the oldschool camera was completely flawless made me fall in love with the Civil Wars

literally have chills. they're amazing.

honestly brings tears to my eyes

Outrageously great. One of the best live vocal performances I've ever heard.

I can so relate to this song.

JOY sings the songs of not her heartfelt emotions, but all of the tragic love stories she was around to see...JOHN PAUL, HOWEVER, HE'S MY HEART......and my most loyal and un-selfish brother who has sacrificed life of happiness to protect and reach out to the lost souls and the heartbroken while keeping the HEARTBREAKERS as close as possible...

this song... is sang so beautifully... i cant even believe it

they are simply amazing.

Damn, she's beautiful ! Oh... the music too.

Omg!!! Love them!!! There my inspiration!!:)

Joy has amazing control of her voice!

what a voice. breathtaking

Best vocal duo
