Heard this song when I met my ex and it took me a long time to get over that ordeal. 5 years later I’m married with my first child .. sadness is only for a moment and not for eternity I wish I knew that when I was 18🥺
Wtf happened to the other video where he's wearing an orange hat? I can't find it anywhere not even on my favourites. Really wanted to hear that version. Edit: It's been 6 years, I know the original is back up lmao I don't need reminding, thanks.
Man.. Everytime... How can you still love someone and not be able to let go of said love even after being hurt and hurt... Good memories and bad dreams forever.
Reminder: You can never make anyone love you. The fact is if you're in a position where you want to make someone love you, then they don't deserve you whatsoever anyway. From my experience love is instinctual, either it's there or it isn't. That's not to say you can't slowly fall in love with someone and realize your feelings, but in a situation like that there's a seed of curiosity and feeling that flowers into full blown romance. You can't magic something into existence that just isn't there, and in a situation like that it's a sign from the universe to move on. As human beings we love to opine on how wonderful romance and relationships are, and they are truly wonderful, but at the end of the day you were made whole and you don't need another person to make you complete. You're amazing the way you are, take the time to connect with your family and your friends. Connect with the Earth and nature, connect with art and music and things that truly inspire you. Romance is an addition which can enhance your life and your perspective, not a necessary building block to feel contentment. Hope this made sense ok peace out spread love
I quote Tolkien when talking about Gandalf's fireworks at Bilbo's birthday, when the only time I fell in love and felt the same love in return was like springtime blooming in an instant. It's strange cause when the love fell out the same love spring time feeling felt like the most barren coldest winter and 20 years since I've never felt that springtime blooming in an instant again. which is lamentable!
For me this song is about a long relationship that has lost the spark. One partner wants that love back. When it happens to you, well, it’s devastating to say the least. It can spiral down very quickly. Maybe you get lucky and something shocks the other into realizing they have let their love die and they can renew the flame. If this happens it can save a life.
Sean Carey and Justin are polar opposites in this version. In my opinion, Sean sounds like someone with a lot of innocence who maybe hasn't truly experienced heartbreak or maybe has thought he has felt heartache but not in comparison to Justin. Justin's voice echoes pain and loneliness. His voice sounds like someone who is in a very emotional and distressed state unlike that of Sean's. This version is amazing because they both bring two different perspectives of what love and heartbreak really is. That's just my take on it.
That was so spot on that it's ridiculous! That... That WAS AMAZING! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on this! I can barely talk right now lol :')
Hated this the first time I heard it. Today, I see and hear it for what it is. This is a GD masterpiece of composition and music. Thank whatever God you pray to that this was created in your lifetime. This soul. Pure and simple
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight 😭
I cried - so hard listening to this. That is a true sign of a musical and dynamic partnership. I am literally puffy-eyed post this magnificent version.
Great! I like Justin singing more but I love how they both had their own original take on it. Sounds similar to the original version Justin did and I love it!
I’m pretty sure you’ll, eventually, see this. When you do, I want you to know that I’m okay... I have no ill will towards you. I hope that you’re happy with your new life and I want nothing but the best for you. ‘Til next time.
How will I ever forget how you used to look at me when you loved me, Ancia? You were my place... "I'll close my eyes then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me".
Turn down the lights Turn down the bed Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me Tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
We’ve all been there, hold fast young Kings. We’ve got a lifetime to live and so much more to experience. Life can sometimes feel like endless pain but it’s the only guaranteed life we get, so Keep on going y’all 🤘🏽 RAGE TOWARDS THE LIGHT
I kind of like the falsetto in the originals. It has a whispering feel to it. Like the person is just sitting there in in bed in the middle of the night thinking about everything that is happening and knowing that really, it cant happen.
Apaga las luces, Apaga la cama, Apaga esas voces dentro de mi cabeza Túmbate conmigo, No me mientas, Solo mantenme cerca, no seas condescendiente conmigo No seas condescendiente conmigo. Porque no puedo hacer que me ames Si no quieres No puedes hacer que tu corazón sienta Algo que no funcionará Aquí en la oscuridad, en estas horas finales Te daré mi corazón Siento la energía, pero tú no No, no lo haces. Porque no puedo hacer que me ames, si no lo haces Si no lo haces, no lo harás, Cierro mis ojos, no veré El amor que no sientes Cuando me estás abrazando. La mañana llegará y haré lo correcto Solo dame de tiempo hasta entonces para rendirme en esta pelea Y me rendiré Porque no puedo hacer que me ames si no lo haces No puedo hacer que tu corazón sienta Algo que no funcionará Aquí en la oscuridad en esas horas finales Te entregaré mi corazón Siento la energía, pero tú no. No, no lo haces. No puedo hacer que me ames, Si no lo haces, no, no lo haces. Encontré el amor, cariño (x4) Encontré el amor, cariño, amor, querida El amor en el último momento Encontré el amor, querida, sí Amor en el último momento.
the version where justin (the guy wearing the pinkish hoodie) sings the whole thing, is 1,000,000 times better. even though he plays the piano better in this one, but the overall piece is better when it was just him
Bon Iver is my favourite artist and the main reference I have when I'm writing a song. As a guitar player, I always try to reach the vibes he puts in his songs. You can hear it in my new song, "Thinking Of A Place" that I have just released. Any comment or feedback is appreciated !
Justin, Stop telling me to turn down our bed. And I do love you I keep telling you that hunni My heart knows what it wants A N D That’s U & ONLY U JUSTIN VERNON U ARE MY ONLY 1 P.S. I’m just waiting on you. I absolutely put my # on this 4 U only💌
I’ve been listening to this for 9 years
me too
its at the point where all other versions (the actual Bon Iver ones) offend me 🤣... I know every tiny vocal intonation of this whole set.
same
"I'll close my eyes, then I won't see, the love you don't feel, when you're holding me". What a terrible feeling.
Just simply one of the most amazing covers to one of the most amazing and heartbreaking songs ever written. That pretty much sums it up!
It is his/their song, btw. No cover.
The original is sung by Bonnie Rait, not written by her though. But yes, THIS is a cover
The 'when you're holding me' bit at 2:35 is everything
I can't get enough of this piano in the begginning, feels like my soul is floating
Heard this song when I met my ex and it took me a long time to get over that ordeal. 5 years later I’m married with my first child .. sadness is only for a moment and not for eternity I wish I knew that when I was 18🥺

Can't find it either
@@rorymannion3724 I hope they put it back up because (no offence to the artists) I really prefer that version, it sounds more raw.

Man.. Everytime... How can you still love someone and not be able to let go of said love even after being hurt and hurt... Good memories and bad dreams forever.

Holy shit the nuance in his voice at 1:56 is like otherworldly

Fuck yeah man, feel like the past 2 years of my life have been all bout this

0:14 when you're 14 seconds into "I Can't Make You Love Me" and he gives you that look...
That look made me melt 😍😍😍

Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
😭
every few months i revisit this
Bon Iver is just built different
How could you fucking dislike this? it was so perfect ...
Because Justin wasn’t singing in his own cover
Best existing version of this song. Vernon and Carey, thank you.
I prefer the solo version Justin done!
This is the harmony for the song … thank you
Justin should use his full voice more often in his songs instead of his head voice, it's fuckin pure magic.
+Flipwin Agreed! So true.
I love Bon Iver, but his stuff under Justin Vernon is better for that reason.
Nick Hinesley If you listen to his older stuff he rarely uses it
DUDE check out the album "Grownass Man" by The Shouting Matches. It's Justin singing tenor in a rootsy group with Phil Cook from Megafaun
It’s my favourite part. It’s so tender. Sometimes I actually just listen to that part. Love Justin, but sometimes I find his part a bit too much here.
My favorite Justin Vernon performance…ever.
I cried - so hard listening to this. That is a true sign of a musical and dynamic partnership. I am literally puffy-eyed post this magnificent version.
This is amazing and I love Sean Carey's voice.
Justin Vernon's voice= tingles
Great! I like Justin singing more but I love how they both had their own original take on it. Sounds similar to the original version Justin did and I love it!

"I'll close my eyes
then I won't see
The love you don't feel
when you're holding me".
So far this is my favorite version of this song. Well done!!
What a beautiful man makes me cry everytime x
God damn this is just the most beautiful song ever, and this version tops Bonnie Raitts version, sorry Bonnie but it just does. Thank you, Justin.
Chills. I could die to this song. Right here. Right now. And it would be okay. I'd be okay.
Truest song I’ve heard
This makes me want to go play the Church’s piano and hear it in that big space as it reverberates in the building.
@leeanncohen711 had the same idea, 👍
Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
I started falling asleep a bit
Lolll
Also you and I helped Tony Bologna and Katy Davis yesterday
Woot woot
vernon's voice instantly makes me cry.. i think that's good tho
Beautiful done 🙏👏👏👏
What a wonderful performance woaaaa
this is a weekly listen. I don't know of other piano duets like this. Pristine.

The vocal embellishment @ 3:35 😰. Too good
still waiting for spotify to add this
Holy crap I'm blown away.

This is so beautiful...
Magnifique interprétation !❤
The best version of this song
Yea I sure can’t make you
You get the choice Bon Iver
I already know I love you
Tank does an arrangement more like the original and that's a SOLID 9.5/10 but this arrangement is just TOO GOOD! A perfect 10/10.
I can't choose between the two. They're so distinctly different and both so amazing.
always goose bumps....pristine.
GUYS ITS ON SPOTIFYYYY
how beautiful....
Love this version
best song ever
I would give all my worldly possessions for her to love me again.
Connor Bahauddin I'd send you my love if I thought your heart wouldn't hurt as bad as mine does over my own lost love.
One day it'll all make perfect sense.
Very nice version both singers sound 👍

Unreal!!!
Apaga las luces,
Apaga la cama,
Apaga esas voces dentro de mi cabeza
Túmbate conmigo,
No me mientas,
Solo mantenme cerca,
no seas condescendiente conmigo
No seas condescendiente conmigo.
Porque no puedo hacer que me ames
Si no quieres
No puedes hacer que tu corazón sienta
Algo que no funcionará
Aquí en la oscuridad,
en estas horas finales
Te daré mi corazón
Siento la energía, pero tú no
No, no lo haces.
Porque no puedo hacer que me ames,
si no lo haces
Si no lo haces, no lo harás,
Cierro mis ojos, no veré
El amor que no sientes
Cuando me estás abrazando.
La mañana llegará y haré lo correcto
Solo dame de tiempo hasta entonces
para rendirme en esta pelea
Y me rendiré
Porque no puedo hacer que me ames
si no lo haces
No puedo hacer que tu corazón sienta
Algo que no funcionará
Aquí en la oscuridad en esas horas finales
Te entregaré mi corazón
Siento la energía, pero tú no.
No, no lo haces.
No puedo hacer que me ames,
Si no lo haces, no, no lo haces.
Encontré el amor, cariño (x4)
Encontré el amor, cariño, amor, querida
El amor en el último momento
