One of the best songs I've ever heard. Everything from the lyrics, intonation, and emotion put into this song, it is pure and beautiful just as music should be.
CAN'T COMPARE THIS RAW EMOTION WITH BIRDY. SORRY BUT YOU JUST CAN'T! Discovered Bon Iver years ago and have been inlove ever since. No cover will be as good as the original!!!
Here is my explanation of the difference between versions. My girlfriend loves Birdy's cover. And I love the original. My explanation to her is this: the young girl's version is very beautiful and she is obviously talented. However, the original has the force and power that makes the song four levels ahead.
Im going to admit that I did say I liked birds version better a few days ago, but this has really grown on me big time and I have a listen to this every day now, and don't even listen to her version anymore.
I like how hes up there literally trying to Express that his heart has been shattered and theres a ton of 30 year old women in the crowd that are just like "how cute"
I saw Bon Iver live last August in Germany. It was awesome! He asked us, what sort of beer is the best in Germany and stuff like this. Btw the show was awesome!
currently obsessed with this song and this version (live)! Such poetry and passion. REAL music...oh yeahhhhh. You should see him do "I can't make you love me".
Just so everyone knows... he's an indie musician, not a hipster musician. Bon Iver means good winter. His real name is Justin Vernon. He did For Emma, Forever Ago all by himself with his own instruments (except for his brother's drum kit). He was popular after he won a grammy, but he was popular and loved in the indie scene long before pop culture recognized him as the fantastic artist that he is. Yeah... he was in New Moon(Roslyn) with Annie Clark of St. Vincent, but we still love him.
He looks like he just came out of a 3month trip alone in the woods. Oh wait.
Love old live videos, no iPhone in the crowd, people actually present in the moment.
I'm glad to be the most recent comment in at least 6 years, people are still here who know what music is

One of the only live versions of a song i've heard that sound exactly like an album version. Fucking amazing song. and bon iver is such a good singer.

I agree. He sings tha with so much ache
The sound quality of this recording is unbelievable!
I really cannot wait for the next album!
for the last time, birdy did a cover, bon iver wrote the song. while birdy's had a different expression, it was no where close to bon iver.
This powerful and emotional performance blows that Birdy version out of the water!!
Love this version rather than birdies sorry but for a man he just has such a high pitch & nice quality to his voice.
I have to comment!! Its the best song best version best everything i have ever heard EVER!!
The emotions he show to this song live is real
LOVE this. Who cares who sings it... Justin is a genius!!! Some "birdy" wants to sing it. Fine by me! More love for this song.
Lots of videos with bon iver using a hut. And this was the one time he most defenetly needed one
bon iver, a guitar, shorts, vest top and a mic, thats all you need
it scares the hell out of me how impecable they are live.
This song touches me so deeply... Thank you, Bon Iver guys.

This man is so amazingly talanted that I loose my breath! Just goes to show that there's still hope for music after all!

music doesn't get better than this. Thank you, Justin Vernon.
The original will always be the best.
this is the original
@@filipivan5125 haha so true. Wonder If he knows something we do not.
@@ashleybeetnik1984 I think the OP was comparing this to Birdies version. So they’re agreeing they just don’t know it lmao
Can't believe no comments in 2 months- this is what freedom looks likE, PEOPLE WITHOUT MASKS & SIX FT WITHIN EACH OTHER!
this song is just too good. too beautiful
Simply the best version of this song....
the most bad ass live performance of skinny love ive heard
He is the only one who should sing this song. Period.
Wouldn`t you like to go away now? Your presence disturbs all of us.
Best live performance of this song.
This performance is great. My all-time favorite is still Justin solo on Later with Jools Holland. That "who the hell was I" damn...
@@jcamp165 totally 😩🍻
Best live performance of this song!
I love how surprisingly high his voice is, seeing his appearance as a wild bearded man
I saw Bon Iver live last August in Germany. It was awesome! He asked us, what sort of beer is the best in Germany and stuff like this.
