"Sing me a song, your voice is like silver" Oh man. Almost too beautiful.

[@deanp1839]

Heard this playing on a random radio station that a neighbour was listening to one night. Only took me 4 years to find it.

[@redsilverjack]

I will never forget the moment I heard this song for the first time.

[@FreyaQuirksALot]

I remember first hearing this song years ago when they were playing it live on a late tv show once, at the darkest point of my depression. I used to listen to this song and cry, now years on I can listen to it and enjoy the melodies and beautiful voices. I once couldn't resonate with anything but the "I don't think that I can do this anymore." You can do this.

[@TheCyberliem]

Exactly what happened me, Once I couldn't sleep and turned BBC1, they played this song, and I just sit there, silently in the darkness, let this song refilled my emptiness.

[@kfactor09]

We can do this!

[@Cookiecreamisoreonice]

Freya Mary similar for me, but this song reminded me of a love lost, made me sad, but now that memories fade, I can appreciate the beauty of it. :)

[@beatrice0043]

Freya Mary there was an italian poet who used to say that our sorrows and painful late night thoughts all become flowers in the morning. I'm happy you were able to get through that delicate light depriving period of yours. However life will go, with its ups and downs, I hope you'll be able to look at it as the brightest dawn and best possibility ever. Keep on finding, treasuring these melodies and make them yours💖

[@lalbiakzualachhakchhuak9958]

Freya Mary amazing how much a song helps depression, isn't it? I've had my songs too.

[@SeeYaLove-lh3db]

3 years ago I watching an interview from birdy they asked her what music she'd been listening to and she mentioned the staves I trust her taste so I gave them a listen I was instantly pulled in by wisely and slow and I have all their music now

[@abbeyraynes]

"Facing West" A room with a window facing west Towards the sea You, with your hands across your chest Facing me Sing me a song, your voice is like silver and I don't think that I can do this anymore I'll take the high road that he walked Once before You sit and watch me as I come Through the door Sing me a song, your voice is like silver and I don't think that I can do this anymore Sing me a song, your voice is like silver and I don't think that I can do this anymore Show me the path down to the shoreline 'cause I don't know if I can do this anymore A room with a window facing west.

[@dominique7093]

these ladies seem like such 'old souls'. I adore them.

[@henna.n]

Listen to this before you sleep... best sleep ever

[@afanofbillboardhot100singe4]

its like a serendipitous moment. Im currently staying at my sister's place for a vacation and i was wondering where the little window on the side of their room is facing, i opened my compass application found out it was facing exactly west. Searched it up on the internet if its significant or something and this song is the first thing that came popping out. thinking of maybe doing a 'little moments in life' video compilation and this will be the background music. its soothing my soul.

[@gwynnielsen5081]

I like the utter simplicity of this song. The harmonies are gorgeous.

[@lyndensmith6181]

[@Jazz2234]

As someone that moved from the Maritimes to the west in CA, I LOVE THIS SONG

[@Pacian]

Three very perfect young ladies singing a perfect song.

[@zolabud69]

Just seen this band on BBC2 and fell in love. The harmonys remind me of Crosby,Still,Nash and Young. Yep, I am an old hippy. Lovely band are the Staves.

[@tombomug]

Sometimes the world comes up with things that are simply perfect. This song is one of those times, when everything has come together to produce one of the most moving yet uplifting and enchanting pieces of music I've ever heard. I don't always deal in superlatives, but I'll make an exception here. I bet when Emily, Jessica, and Camilla heard the finished track played back they just went "Yessss". At least I hope they did. It really is that good and I can't stop playing it. Thank you. x

[@wixy20071]

Thank you BBC two :) xx

[@petertobin7696]

There’s a story behind me liking your songs but it’s not important. I just like them. So, we all win, regardless 🙌🏻

One word "beautiful"

This is the best music every man woman and child should have this in their music collection , real creative music and harmony. music is the food of love spirit lifted and going in for seconds love this .

[@missnutnut1]

I've just done the same. Woke up at 2.30 to this song on BBC2. I had to find the tune.

[@tracyperdue2756]

I recently discovered The Staves with "Tired as Fuck" on KZbin, and am still finding really impressive songs every day. This one is really very captivating. The Stavely-Talor sisters have this brilliant way of sounding old-timey and original and fresh at the same time. Such talent!

[@tracyperdue2756]

Oops.. typo! That should say Stavely-Taylor sisters.

[@bristevens8823]

[@smollily3601]

This was the newest song when I first discovered them. Since then, I've been in love with them. I used to play their songs on my guitar all day long! Time flies, indeed. They're always amazing! Gonna love them forever :)

Stunning as ever

[@wayneclement7201]

I used to fall asleep with the TV on years ago and this would be played in the overnight transmission, their haunting voices used to wake me up. I'd listen to the end of the song before turning the TV off, this happened for months

[@patrickmcgee1136]

I did exactly the same. I'd wake up knowing I'd heard a beautiful song but didn't know who it was by.

[@wayneclement7201]

[@katnevershutsup]

i caught the end of this song on the radio at night and scrawled myself a post-it which i found the next morning, saying only 'the states(??) emily, jessica'. i spent so much time since then trying to find it everywhere, and finally i have.

[@ExploringHabit]

You fall in love with their voices whilst listening.

[@chrisandersen5635]

I first heard them on Jools Holland more than ten years ago. Been hooked ever since. Now, lately, my life is in flux, and these songs speak to me in a completely different way. Meaningfully. It’s like listening for the 1000th time and the first time. I guess it’s what we refer to as timeless. Thank you Stavely-Taylors.
