Thanks to taylorswift13, The Civil Wars' John Paul White and Joy Williams are together on a new 'Taylor's Version' track released overnight.
By revisiting an early triumph, Taylor Swift has reunited a Grammy-winning duo. To celebrate the lead up to Swift’s career-spanning “The Eras Tour,” the music megastar digitally released four tracks at midnight last night. Those tunes include a remake of “Safe & Sound,” her double-platinum Grammy-winning “The Hunger Games” soundtrack collaboration with pop-folk hit-makers The Civil Wars, which featured singer/songwriters John Paul White and Joy Williams.
On the 2023 redux, White and Williams are credited individually instead of as The Civil Wars. Reportedly, White, a longtime Muscle Shoals area resident, and Williams recorded their new parts separately. You can listen to the re-recorded version of “Safe & Sound” below. Back in the early 2010s when the original “Safe & Sound” was cut, Swift was still a country-focused sensation and not yet the world-dominating pop mastermind she evolved into with her 2014 mega-selling “1989″ album. The dramatic “Safe & Sound” became a top 30 pop hit. Being in “The Hunger Games,” the Jennifer Lawrence-starring box-office dominating adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ young adult books, elevated the already ascendant Swift’s profile..
The Civil Wars first broke big with their Grammy winning 2011 debut album “Barton Hollow,” which dripped with Southern gothic imagery and emotional lyrics and vocals. Three years later. The cracks were showing well before then. A run of fall 2012 shows was cancelled “”due to internal discord and irreconcilable differences of ambition.”
The Civil Wars’ signature song, “Poison & Wine,” has been streamed more than 140 million times on Spotify. The duo released their last album, self-titled “The Civil Wars,” in 2013.
