What an absolute shame their not performing together anymore. They simply fit like a glove. The best duo in recent history. Destiny brought these two together. I'm so thankful that we had the chance to enjoy their music. Incredible harmonies!!!!
Saw them on Thursday. I got to meet them afterwards and spend like half an hour hanging out with them, and i'd been tweeting them for months saying how i was looking forward to it, and counting down the days. and Joy knew who i was, she came up to me and just said "omg you're the girl whos been tweeting us counting down from 178 days" before i even said my name or anything. I just cant even express my love for them.
GOOD NEWS! I've arrived at a solution to THE CIVIL WARS problem. They MUST get back together. They're FAR to good together for us to allow them to split. I've listened to them individually. Each might get a 7. Together no less than 11. I promise to buy any albums they produce together. They can fight later in the back room.
@@irinav8434 They are like Fleetwood Mac; stay together for 50 years because the music is worth the personal issues that have to be dealt with, or not dealt with. Well, that is until Stevie got a stick up her butt in her 70's and decided she was more important than the music. Thanks, Stevie, for ruining the last possible chance of a final tour on the 50th of the classic lineup. THANKS!!!!!
I love watching their careers grow. Just a year ago, they were playing at small record stores. Now, they have 2 Grammys and are on a sold out tour......They deserve every bit of this.
First Aid Kit--sing a song about this duo!! Sorry, better than Parsons/EmmyLou , John/June, and all. Too short-lived!! Get back together,for all of us, forget the past!
Dumbass. I like them, but everything sounds the same and she frequently over does it. Better than the names you listed? Not in a million. Furthermore they dont exist because theyre dishonest cheaters. So on behalf of each of their partners- FUCK THEM. Ill keep the three songs of theirs i like and move on with life. Plenty of better artists with more integrity to support.
Almost two years before they released "From This Valley" on their second album. I didn't realize they wrote it so early on, comparatively. I sure miss these two. It's so sad that even more than ten years after their breakup in the fall of '12, they still apparently are not on good enough terms to re-record their "Safe And Sound" track with Taylor Swift together, but only laid down the tracks separately. Well, maybe after twenty years, things will be different. Maybe that long-dreamed-of meeting at Sacre Coeur will finally take place. Maybe a tender note will appear underneath someone's door....at long last.
I was there for this show... unfortunately the gray whale is no longer located by the U. I used to rent an apartment about a mile from their store and would swing by most weekends to peruse their isles. It's some women's clothing/boutique now and I get sad each time I drive by it.
U of U? University of Uruguay? There is one thing that creeps me out a bit about this band. She is into him in a major Biblical way. But they are married to other folks. The tension so thick you can cut it with a chainsaw. The harmony singing is so tight and close it reminds me of the Everly Brothers. If they are nothing more than friends and musical partners I guess it is the power of music. Wow. Incredible talent. Santa Cruz Rocks!
"Joy"... What an appropriate name for someone who exudes joy with every move and every gesture... despite the fact that most of the song carry a sad feeling. I love your voice to the nth power. You're cool too Jhon Paul, great voice too, but I can't stopp looking at Joy when she performs. "I've got this friend", my favourite. I sing it with my daughter :)
I wonder how difficult it is to maintain such a close collaboration and touring performance duo when both are married to other people who may or may not be that patient or understanding about that closeness.
It always amazes me how their mood changes to suit each song! I think it's crazy! But mostly amazing, and now they don't sing these songs anymore, really! Must be so sad not singing the song's you wrote!
I could shoot myself for missing this in my OWN CITY! This is so amazing! They take my breath away and leave me feeling tingly. So much emotion pours out of their music, I can hardly contain the emotions!
too bad they couldn't resolve whatever differences they had....they were a brilliant, if short lived, collaboration....I believe Joy decided to pursue her career in gospel music...."the caged bird dreams of a strong wind that will float beneath her wings...."
Regardless of why I turn my laptop on or why I go on the internet, I always end up watching The Civil Wars live. ..And cat videos, but I won't get into that.
They haven't split, they've just ceased to be a touring entity aka they're still a band but just not touring for now. Joy Williams also announced on Twitter that she was in the studio just last week recording new material with JPW! So all is good again:)
It sounds like the sound was picked up with a mic (maybe built into the cam?) not like the master signal was taped right out of the board. Overall: Not too shoddy, I'd say :)
This is on a pretty busy street between apartments and the UOU campus.. there are/were a bunch of places for students and professionals to get lunch right next to where the gray whale was located.

Such an amazing duo. Their voices blend so beautifully. Miss them.

I agree with you. Solo they’re not great but together they are amazing. They are a gift.

This is like the "Casual Friday" version of The Civil Wars.
Lightning in a bottle. The most unbelievably wonderful duet ever.
Musical soul mates if ever there were...
I love how Joy is so bubbly and John Paul is just like "deal with it" haha

@@miguelmarquez4192 hate much? They didn’t cheat.
I miss The Civil Wars so very much! Such a great duo!!

In the meantime I'll be waiting
For twenty years, twenty more
I'll be praying ...
I just love watching them perform - they seem to really be into their music and having a blast!

I adore these two! They sing so well and JPW is amazing
Just saw them they are an amazing group! Can't believe they were at one of my husbands favorite places (The Graywhale)!
best thing that has happen to music in a long time...
how the hell did i miss this? COME BACK!
What a dazzling smile and otherworldly voice. Marry me, Joy?
nokidding shes amazing!
I asked her first !!!
Joy is too cute, I love her dancing while she sings, and her faces :) and John, hi, I love you.
Joy does the cutest little dances ever
joy looks incredible !
Doesnt she always?
Joy is adorable.. This needs more views! It's a great video.
I love that she's always smiling.
Yeah, Im officially in love with Joy. She's beyond amazing.
Dammit, this was about a mile away from where I live! I hope I was working that day because otherwise, no excuse...
Finally some new music that's worth listening. Thank you.
U of U? University of Uruguay?

Santa Cruz Rocks!
i still want to watch a live show of civil wars before i die!
Me too!
I wish that would happen 😥
Taint happenin
seen them 3 times live and it's incredible. I was here saw them at the depot and at the state room.. they were magical together!

Well that might of contributed to them parting ways, do not know, but my own opinion
Sat with headphones on and got so into the music i applauded at the end of the songs....had a strange look from hubby lol
ugh i wish i was there. awesome video. ive watched it.. 3 times now hah
Love every song
Had my hopes up for a reunion until I saw the date on the video.
1)Tip Of My Tongue
2)Forget Me Not
3)I've Got This Friend
4)From This Valley
love them all.... :D
wonderful voices - both of them!
If the video wasn't working, you still wouldn't be able to tell it wasn't recorded, these guys are pitch perfect live!
if only you could see MY smiling face. LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!
It always amazes me how their mood changes to suit each song! I think it's crazy! But mostly amazing, and now they don't sing these songs anymore, really! Must be so sad not singing the song's you wrote!
Are we absolutely sure that JPW is not Mikael Akerfeld from Opeth?
So amazing live or in studio. :)
I could shoot myself for missing this in my OWN CITY! This is so amazing! They take my breath away and leave me feeling tingly. So much emotion pours out of their music, I can hardly contain the emotions!
Love the bird chirping in the background. So perfect. 12:57-13:25
too bad they couldn't resolve whatever differences they had....they were a brilliant, if short lived, collaboration....I believe Joy decided to pursue her career in gospel music...."the caged bird dreams of a strong wind that will float beneath her wings...."

are your cats named "Joy" and "John Paul" ? lol
Joy is so beautiful and both so talented
I love these guys!
I've noticed Joy wears this necklace every day even at Barton holler vid.
they are amazing!
She's perfect
They haven't split, they've just ceased to be a touring entity aka they're still a band but just not touring for now. Joy Williams also announced on Twitter that she was in the studio just last week recording new material with JPW!
So all is good again:)
I guess you were still in denial when you posted this. I hope you've finally come to terms with their split...very sad, I know.
How could that guy at 2:14 not stop ?!?!
Ikr!!!
@porterhouse1974 a true stament showing what being a true artist is about.
She's an angel......he's an angle(?) lol
13:00 The Beginning of the most Beautiful harmony I have ever heard.
the only thing i've been wondering throughout their performance was whether or not Joy was wearing black heels or not...
i love the civil no matter what
When in the world are you coming to Italy? When!?
Dam they sound just as good live if not more so then studio..
Could anyone please tell me the song at 11:00? Great video!
It sounds like the sound was picked up with a mic (maybe built into the cam?) not like the master signal was taped right out of the board. Overall: Not too shoddy, I'd say :)
"From this Valley" is awesome.....
I clicked on this because Joy Williams is wearing shorts.
They're so good, though.
Lol and ikr XD
Why aren't there more comments about how beautiful Joy is?
Agree. She looks amazing and totally sexy.
she had a baby in late summer. from what i understand, thats why they arent touring right now. devoting time to family. correct me if im wrong.
Joy, that chocolate/banana shake sounds good, but I prefer the "shake" right in front of me.
They're like June Carter & Johnny Cash :))
i love knitting and homemaking to this song like erday
She always makes me gotta go pee lol
She sometimes looks like she has to pee, too!
What is the name of the last song they play?
Those bass strings are vibrating like nobody's business!
She is SMOKIN HOT!
they're seriously the nicest people right?!
Her smile reminds me of Ellie Kemper
Her smile is fabulous and it's hers ::)
That's the same thing I keep wondering!
what song is the first one?
post the song names please
Joy is not wearing black!!
To that person that opened the little window at 3:25, you feel the magic too don't ya?
From This Valley
lightning in a bottle....well said
i need to meet them :(
Too bad they said they won't be touring any longer :(
3:26 someone couldn't stand it anymore and they had to let the lovely music inside = ]
"We're outside!"
hahaha
Song at 11?
How can people just walk right past this?
This is on a pretty busy street between apartments and the UOU campus.. there are/were a bunch of places for students and professionals to get lunch right next to where the gray whale was located.
Se parece mucho. Pero no es internacional.!
Ok, I do to!
first time ive seen john not wear a suit.
"From this valley"
what's an LBD (I risk sounding like I'm out of it, I know... )
Little Black Dress
@@aceofspades6667 this is seven years after I asked this question! Isn't that crazy? thanks for the reply!
@@betsyfeller3378 lol sorry for being so late
@@aceofspades6667 haha! all's well.:) thanks again!
