Get Ready to Cry With Caitlin & Will

Posted: July 23rd, 2009 at 10:48 am | By: Jessica Gertler

You might plan to have a box of tissues ready when you watch Caitlin & Will's latest video, "Address in the Stars," because the emotions that these two deliver are genuine, heartfelt and poignant. The song is about losing a loved one and wanting so badly to talk to them except there's "no address in the stars." Caitlin plays her role well in this video. So well in fact, that I felt like I needed to offer my condolences. Her tears, facial expressions and body language are so believable that you think she just underwent a loss. The black-and-white picture and the forest filled with paper lanterns add to the bleak, melancholy setting. I was impressed with these Can You Duet winners' ability to create a dramatic piece without making it cheesy and cliché.

This song is well written, sung superbly, and the music is heavenly. Can’t wait for the video! Will / Caitlin and Joey / Rory were my favs last year. Love Can You Duet. This year hoping the Steel Magnolias win it all. I do hope this song gets good promotion. Their song Even Now was fabulous too. Will and Caitlin are a good duo. She has the great pipes and he adds the needed contrast.

This song is so beautiful. I love it and all the emotion in the words and her voice really makes me cry. And now when i want to scream for my dad i can sing this song to him. miss him so much and feel so helpless sometimes. But music helps all so much in life. thanks Caitlin and Will

I love these two. Can’t believe their video’s have not been played more on cmt and other shows. I am so tired of the same old top 20 that I have gone back to the radio.

Fantastic song and video. Caitlin and Will both look and sound terrific. Hope they finally get the promotion they deserve (sadly lacking this past year).

I agree this video makes me cry everytime!
I did read that Caitlin wrote this song about her Aunt who passed because of breast cancer and those are her Aunt’s pearls she is wearing and holding in the video. So it is true emotion she is sharing with everyone

Sandy- (and anyone else who’s interested)- the album is only available electronically thru iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody. Absolutely worth the download!

I’n not so sure it’s all acting. I know Caitlin wrote the song about her aunt who passed away from best cancer I believe, so I’m sure the tears were real. But I love these two!!
