This song was inspired by the string quartet players in the crematoria in Europe during the Holocaust. "Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin...dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in...lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove...dance me to the end of love."
This should have 120 milion views, not 120 thousand. This is the most romantic song I've ever hear, period. The 2nd and 3rd place being occupied by "No Ordinary Love" and "Tip of My Tongue" by the same band, The Civil Wars. They are the band with the best romantic songs ever
Somebody already suggested me this song a long ago, but today when I was watching Vampire diaries, it was played at wedding occasion in the episode. That reminded of this song and I got all my past beautiful memories back. ❤️
i knew this song by leonardo cohen waaay before i watched TVD, but when it came on the show, i was like, daaamn this version is sooooo goood i gotta look its singers up!!
This one reminds me very much of the style of Leonard Cohen, today is the first day I have heard songs from The Civil Wars definitely heading over to iTunes now to get the albums
Cohen's is a very different rendition...that's got it's own flavor...but the Civil Wars have created something truly beautiful out of this classic strain
Ohmygod i just stumbled upon this song and i was wondering why it sounded so familiar. I finally found the song after all these years now im gonna rewatch TVD
I believe it is considered more 'folk', but from what I've seen A LOT of people also called it country. I believe it's sound is far to rich to simply be classified as country though :P
My Fiancé and I are singing this together while I walk down the aisle alone because I don’t have a father so I’ll just focus all my energy and love onto my Fiancé ❤️❤️
I love how everyone is commenting with Vampires Diaries..... This song is WAY older than the show, originally sung by Leonard Cohen. I do love the Civil Wars though haha
Yes...The violinists were forced to play whilst bodies were being burnt..knowing that this was the last time they would play..as they were next... The song describes how memories of music ,dancing, love, family was all they had left..until the end..of love..or life... Also being in the Camps..it is easy to imagine that they felt it was already the end of Love..as they were surrounded by Evil and Hate.. A beautiful song of love,longing,and hope that they would survive.."lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove "🕊
Rania Moe you might like some of Jayme Dee's covers of other people's songs. Maybe Willow by Jasmine Thompson? And Muse is a rock band but some of their songs have a similar feel to this. None of these suggestions are super close but you'll probably enjoy them.

You must to listen to Leonard Cohen

The fact I know exactly what scene you are talking about
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. It gives me goose bumps. It is a passionate song. I love it!

"Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin...dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in...lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove...dance me to the end of love."
And they were probably Romani. The music sounds like that.
My emotions and thoughts turn into a flowing river and I feel like I'm dancing in Greece every time I listen to this song
did anyone noticed that this song fits to Damon and Elena perfectly.....and to their last dance...and end of love....
BRO YES
I guess nothing can be compared to Leonard Cohen and yet this version adds a refreshing and romantic approach to dancing to the end....of love.

Reminds of "Once Upon a December" from the movie Anastasia.
Such a poetic beautiful song-especially when Aleric Gets Married!
The harmonies, the la's, the oh's it makes me melt :-( ominously/hauntingly beautiful
My mom died three day ago. This song saves me in my grief and mends my broken heart! ♥♥♥
I hope your mind and heart find peace..so sorry for your loss
Thank you so much! @@cuteathar3251

Ohh....The Vampire Diaries 😍❤😍

I so love their sound ....yes so very classic and I am held captive by their work
The civil wars are incredible !! All their songs are amaziiing !!
Sacha Pace I completely agree! I recently found out about them and it is fun to discover all the songs I didn’t know they sang!
I’ve become obsessed with this song!!
I've been listening to the civil wars almost everyday for a year now.
This one reminds me very much of the style of Leonard Cohen, today is the first day I have heard songs from The Civil Wars definitely heading over to iTunes now to get the albums
The civil wars just covered this song, it is originally by him
It reminds me of greek songs. It's beautiful!
Love your profile picture. Js.
Mmmmph. Such a beautiful song.
THIS SONG IS SO ROMANTIC
I find this to be the best cover to this song I have ever heard. It almost equals the original. Love it!
RIP Leonard Cohen
Am i the only one listening to this now this is a masterpiece that should be appreciated by us 😞
Es una melodía meritoria, entrañable y majestuosa, que atrapa el alma por su fondo sentimental y soñadora. Gracias, Maxlacus, por compartirla.
this gives me chills it's so beautiful
I'm addicted to this song, it so beautiful ♥ Love it!
Cohen's is a very different rendition...that's got it's own flavor...but the Civil Wars have created something truly beautiful out of this classic strain
I think I watched this episode about a thousand times I fill sad for Ric it was sad to see him lose the love of his life Joe will be missed 😢😢
Alaric didn't deserve that ☹️☹️
Fr I feel bad for Alaric
I mad about it♥♥♥ perfect song ♥
Perfect Duo I love it thank you
Found my wedding song ♡
its someone else's wedding song
yep, in TVD. Alaric and Jo's wedding
d e p r e s s e d many other people have already used it before TVD
The Civil Wars in general would be great for a wedding man.
If you only knew what this song was actually talking about, I don't think that you would want it as a wedding song....
i love this song
Ohmygod i just stumbled upon this song and i was wondering why it sounded so familiar. I finally found the song after all these years now im gonna rewatch TVD
Still love this one
I LOVE this song! ❤️
The Vampire Diaries
TVD has a few songs that civil wars has done, and their music is sooo good
They did some great cover songs, this one being the best
I love this song!!
I wanna dance with the love of my life on this ✨
Wonderful ❤
Am I the only one that I'm here after seeing Jo's and Alaric's wedding on tvd?❤️
I'm so upset that it took me so long to discover them
right!?!?
Just beautiful
Fabulous, thanks
I believe it is considered more 'folk', but from what I've seen A LOT of people also called it country. I believe it's sound is far to rich to simply be classified as country though :P
Please tell me someone else here realizes this is a song by Leonard Cohen?!?!?!

It is really awesome 😍
Ma quanto mi piace questa versione. quanta tenerezza e quanta dolcezza...Grazie.

Mənimlə sevginin sonuna rəqs et ... Bu necə möhtəşəm mahnıdır belə! Kəlimələr kifayətsiz qalır bu cür əsərlərin qarşısında.
pas mal cette version, mais toutefois une préférence pour celle de Léonard Cohen
Bravo to the Civils Wars
I was looking up "homeward dove" and found some interesting things. This song is about the Holocaust....
kaylin sangatio I just looked up the meaning of this song...now I get goosebumps.
Yes...The violinists were forced to play whilst bodies were being burnt..knowing that this was the last time they would play..as they were next...

love it!
Natasha Bure brought me here. beautiful enchanting song

The composer and the artists are both gone now. But the artists could still come back. Think positive everybody!

Esta canción me eleva a la expresión máxima del amor
Awesome! ...I forget but did you get in?
i wish i had her voice
Μα εκείνο το τρένο..ηταν μοναδικό..δεν σταμάτησε πουθενά μονο εκείνη μα γελά.....κ εχθες γελαγε..
❤❤❤❤
This is a very beautiful version, but... Well... Leonard Cohen's voice is just better for it. :)
Amazing! This version is way more beautiful than the original one
nice♡
Danza conmigo mi sueño de Amor, hasta el fin de los tiempos. 💋
does anyone know any singers that sing this kind of songs? x
the civil wars
Rania Mq Check out Madeleine Peyroux

City and Colour! They're amazing and sing songs similar to this
Vampire diaries, wedding scene, they pick the perfect music 💗
