The Civil Wars - Oh Henry (Live)

[@PG5768]

My goodness, if they aren't the definition of lightning in a bottle I don't know what is. Their artistry and chemistry is amazing.

[@geolinkin6579]

Best artists in a long ass while. The stars aligned and then disintegrated. I will patiently wait for the realignment.

[@MtnMan802]

+geo linkin well said!!

[@geolinkin6579]

thanks!

[@leahchriistiine]

This is an amazing comment

[@blacklitchick]

I love how Joy always goes off mic and sings like she's feeling the music so much she can't be constrained. She is so awesome. Love her!

[@ericbriggs7383]

He totally jinxed them. Ironically it made this performance that much better.

[@Rockstar72797]

I love Joy's little dance moves, they make me laugh. Love her:D

[@ainsleighmae19]

"How about the top of the chorus?" "Ok!" Man I love these two... so much energy in everything they do. it's electric!

[@leahchriistiine]

I know, right?!! :D

[@PhilAMurray]

In all my years I've never seen a band take as much joy in their music

[@alittlebluephonebox]

I love how her body language is almost encouraging John's playing rather than performing.

[@leahchriistiine]

I know!!

[@terrapinbrad]

God, I love them so much it HURTS! It's everything I can do NOT to cry when I listen to the new album! :'( TELL me it AIN'T SO...

[@JaiAlgarin]

Oh my gosh, i LOVE THEM SO MUCH, they need MORE fame, they need to be known They are amazing together and so funny :')

[@gearoiddom]

This is great. Love that rasping reso sound. She sounds she was raised in the delta!

[@xoTossTossxo]

i saw them for the first time last night, gotta say- i started giggling during this song because i thought back to this performance. they are so brilliant live! :)

[@sharleenbranch9113]

Her face at the capo part. LOL! Gosh I love them :')

[@vandamandamn]

I'm telling ya..these guys are pure genius!!!

[@jordanshim380]

The music is beautiful, but the real sadness in this story is that they never faced up to the fact that they were hopelessly in love.

[@reginacolonna4409]

Or... They were both mature enough to honor vows to their spouses/families to put other not themselves first... Maturity

[@GreyBeatle]

These two together are amazing. NOBODY would contest that. If they can't get it together with just two of them in charge. My whole Beatles having to many in charge theory is obsolete. PLEASE stay together!!! Keep GOING in the interest of MUSIC!!! You compliment each other. Although I can see the personality differences at the end of the screw up with the Kypo. I'm a Civil War re-enactor and absolutely LOVE studying the civil war as a Canadian. I'm in Nashville about every 3-4 weeks where you two met and I hope you don't stop together. The online You Tube video's you guys put out there shows, what a couple of decent people can do in the music industry without fame, or backing or being invited to the oprey or being invited to be famous by other artists. It's very IMPORTANT to the rest of us in the music community who write tunes and aren't famous and will never be, that you continue together with this style of music. It's a major start in life.....for both of you, If you can't get it together, like the beatles couldn't... you will never be the same without each other... keep that in mind... music shows the personality in people on stage.. and I hope to see it further... from both involved..

[@fire1937]

God I miss them.

[@tiredmum7]

I could eat up that gorgeous resonator guitar sound - and the beautiful voices. Thank you both for the soulful poignant refrains that have been "resonating" in my head and heart for the last two days since I first heard your album. Exquisite!

[@AaronLerch1]

i love their soulful and just pure sound. its like impossible to explain with words. when u hear them perform it just sounds right.

[@1586brittc]

This hiatus they're on is killing me!!!

[@Oferdrincere]

its not a hiatus anymore.. they are broken up permanently.. :/

[@destin32541]

Now that is Live! I just like love The Civil Wars.

[@plaidgent1]

This video of this song has the best sound quality of any on KZbin. Real pity that capo couldn't hold on for 2 more minutes... Props to these two anyways! Fantastic musicians!

[@Jadexfriendsforever]

As soon as the guitar started up, I got tears. this is awesome.

[@KylieColours]

SOMEBODY GET THAT WOMAN A TAMBOURINE!

[@leahchriistiine]

Lmao yes XDD

[@Babyrufus123456]

Oh my gosh I love them so much! haha I grew up listening to Joy Williams and I'm so happy to see her doing music like this! Beautiful People.

[@shadowXwolf113]

When she froze on the mic :D So cute lol

[@dramanurse]

OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS BAND!!!!

[@youmeatsixme]

I haven't been able to get this song out of my head since I first heard it!! That's The Civil Wars for ya :D

[@cassandrastargen6054]

The glitch with the guitar only made this performance better. Damn u John P for being cute and charming!!!!

[@MultiFaolan]

This is the kind of music that gets rid of that nasty writers' block ^^ Exactly the kind...

[@aamrcbgoss5572]

Agree

[@Nightskyninja]

When John Paul's capo came off! lol XD

[@connie3c]

I love the way she just freezes during that

[@cristinaleitao6007]

Awwww *-* she is sooo cute!!!

[@xoTossTossxo]

2:17 - 2:33 "and that's when the capo came off, which is exactly how we wrote it. we do all kind of pyrotechnics later. how about the top of the chorus?" ... "okay!" - haha, i adore them more than life.

[@SaiyukiGS]

Gosh, they're just so endearing. And beautiful.

[@terrapinbrad]

God, I love them so much it HURTS! It's everything I can do NOT to cry when I listen to the new album! :'(

[@kalynedunn5987]

haha her face when the cap ocame off and the way she froze lol HAHAHAH got to love Joy!:D

[@leahchriistiine]

Yup!!! :D

[@graysdel1295]

oh my freaking gosh they're so cute together

[@leahchriistiine]

Ikr

[@StopMotion1357]

Literally and figuratively!

[@jinke5935]

Это самое живое выступление, которое я когда-либо видел. Идеальный дуэт и потрясающая импровизация!

[@AndreaCartoons]

I'm going to pretend they're happy in love.

[@leahchriistiine]

I love this comment oml

[@iNTERS22]

Love these guys, so much energy!

[@jacenchrisbaker]

That bridge blows my mind.

[@BorgoDrums]

She surely is very expressive and outgoing, but it could also be caused by the fact that while normal bands' singers have bottles of water, she has a glass of wine

[@leahchriistiine]

XDD

[@JJwalker405]

Man oh Man ! I've never played a Dobro but it sure looks like fun. Gotta get on on these...

[@rocioaciar5042]

I love her dance

[@Ragoo1992]

Listen to that guitar, ohwowww

[@codirobinson8055]

Haha! lovin the capo part!!!

[@meerkat71708]

now whenever i listen to this song in another video, i always expect the capo to come off during that certain part of the song..haha

[@aiaimaria50]

I wish I could have all the songs from 'the red curtain performance'on a CD.... is that somehow possible ? To me, in music they're by far the best thing happening in years. Adorable, divine voices and superb way of making new songs of covers...They really make me happy.I hope they come to Amsterdam, Paradiso ?

[@alovelyjessture]

I LOVE THESE GUYS

[@tropicaldan]

They exude such joy with each performance Extraordinary

[@daisyalexleigh]

absolutely adore this

[@wraylynn95]

The way she moves makes me happy..

[@emmanicholl]

you guys are amazing

[@feXomorph]

Wow, couldn't of agreed more!

[@water2chick]

UTAHHHH!!!! I LOVE YOU EVEN MORE!!!!!!! Agh! I live in Utah. :D I love them, now that they wrote a song in Utah. AAAAAAAAGHHH!!!!!

[@biblesANDbeer]

Love. Love. Love.

[@TheAislinn22]

They are amazing :)

[@mlmj1994]

Wow! I love these guys :)

[@MatthiasSomers]

This is awesome !

[@1989Bgirl]

Love this!!!!

[@brentcrude8565]

2:57 GO JOY!!

[@WayneRailman9]

If this does not put a smile on your face...check to see if your heart is beating!!!

[@leahchriistiine]

TRUE!!!!

[@Wolftron9733]

@abbymaeandthehomesch Ironic, her name is Joy :] Totally agree though. Just saw them last night in Minneapolis, and they were absolutely amazing.

[@TheEllsworth8]

I never thought it possible to fall in love with a woman in mere seconds. But Joy's face as the capo came off just proved me wrong. :)

[@mattjb84]

lol, they are amazing!

[@charitzia]

hahaha gotta love them :)

[@EzyoMusic]

@ripcord81 Maybe check out the Newport capo. I use one now, have used the Performance model, as well as a bunch of others.

[@Amontanea]

This song sounds 100 times better live then the one in the album

[@aspalding]

they need to do a mega tour with Gillian welch and david Rawlings. Both groups would benefit from being with each other. Would be awesome to see some collabs with them, imagine rawlings guitar with some of these songs.

[@calbo555]

@xoTossTossxo i was going to write at 2.16 he flicked it off with his thumb haha .. best duo i've ever seen and easy the sexiest lady in the world , taken over my former favourite holly willaboughy and that's saying something haha

[@navnig]

They were brilliant together....I'm still gutted they broke the band up =(

[@thebrokephilanthropist4184]

I want to marry her and have him as my best friend haha these two are simply amazing

[@timjmoran]

@xoTossTossxo That is just about as well as you can handle an on-stage mishap like that.. pretty great the way she freezes... gosh.. she is SOO purrty...sigh...

[@giveitaway86]

@JeffTele the springs wear out quick and ive had 2 break on me at the hinge. Im with john paul buy a shubb and it will go the miles, much more reliable.

[@Angie-pj1xn]

0:10 I died inside

[@NathanGui]

that guitar omg

[@GustavoAlves-wm7gk]

A dancinha é a melhor!!! rsrsrsrs

[@Huskyd502]

Swear I might have the biggest crush on Joy lol..

[@HenryZion]

This is all about me!

[@Bente684]

This guy just is a mix between John Mayer & Johnny Depp! love it btw

[@Bluessongstress1963]

@abbymaeandthehomesch Amen, I'm the same...I don't drink or drug, but some might swear I do when I get into a great tune! ;p

[@noyesproductions]

@abbymaeandthehomesch true that. Theres something about being onstage in front of an audience that makes you act crazy, hell, i do it all the time. Plus, alcohol is bad for your vocal chords and im guessing from hearing her sing, she's not the type to get drunk before a show.

[@henryb5263]

Nice, nice ;D

[@marianneengel3661]

such a happy couple, i so sad for the learn about they broke up

[@jamesprice1562]

+marianne engel THEY WEREN'T A COUPLE. THEY WERE MARRIED TO OTHER PEOPLE THE WHOLE TIME WHY DON'T PEOPLE GET THIS!!!

[@cirice808]

+ADoseOfGaming well if they are not a couple and married to different people the people they are married to might think they spend to much time together so :/

[@jamesprice1562]

+sierra king makes no odds they broke up two years ago and its their carrer so I doubt they arent narrow minded people like yourself 👍

[@mcearl8073]

James Price Because look at them, everyone looks at them like they are in love with each other, and guess what, they probably were, there were definitely sexual tensions or feelings from at least one of them and everyone sees it and comments about it. That causes tensions with their actual relationships too as you can imagine. Joy talked about it in an interview at one point, I can’t remember the specifics, I don’t think she came right out and said they had a thing but she implied that when you spend that much time with someone feelings are bound to happen.

[@austincrowmusic2378]

Shubb capos are the best 😎

[@GuitarmanKRC]

Does anyone have a good tab for this song?

[@txmnsquirrel]

All of there videos from that concert are great but the guitar on this one is so overpowering I can't understand the words, totally different from the rest of their videos, Still love 'em

[@dance2live13]

Yes, and she's called Joy too. So it fits. ;)

[@WhoaThereMama]

Incidentally, she is also called Joy ;)

[@TwistedSyrenity]

2:16 1, 2, 3... Freeze! XD

[@AlexFischbachMusic]

that's very funny

[@iikhalaii8784]

I don't think they had an affair but there is obvious tension between them. They made the best decision to separate but once they realized the problem they also lost the muse that they shared to make that much good music.

[@Oohenry1]

my name is henry!

[@jfriedman1989]

Can anyone tell what tuning his resonator is in?

[@benmikolajczyk4538]

The Low E is tuned to D with a capo on the fifth fret. Good luck

[@AnthonyRFlores4L]

Drop D? I thought it was DADGAD.

[@ellen7136]

It's definitely DADGAD

[@fR0qiiE]

2:19 FREEZE ....."top of chorus" Okay! 2:32

[@TheCutie447]

If the civil wars were still together they should of covered the house of the rising sun

[@VETALEJ]

johnny depp has a band?

[@LindseyLayne]

She reminds me of Jenna from Pretty Little Liars.
