    Birdy's version of Skinny Love single-handedly helped me through my depression back in 2012. I was uprooted from my home and away from my friends who I call family, had suicidal thoughts but I listened to this song every night until eventually I got better, I see better. Until this day, January 2024 I still listen and remember not the pain but hope. Thank you Birdy.

    Tonight I feel so lonely, I just feel empty, like my life has no purpose or direction. I always wait for something to happen, something great that will save me from feeling like this, a love that will change my existence. It's hard to feel like nobody will ever love you like you wish or deserve. I turn around and see happy couple and people everywhere and then there's me. I fall for everyone and eventually hurt myself. This goes out to those who are going through the same thing, you're not alone. I'm here sitting on my bed and it's almost 2 am, and I think about so many things, my mind is so loud I can't sleep. I just wanted to vent it all out, sorry. I hope someday I will finally find peace of mind.

    It's been eight years already. I'm 17 and I've been listening to this song for years. I feel some kind of attachment to it. It helps me resist - against dark thoughts, suicide attempts, distress, loneliness... I'm feeling much better now but still... Solitude characterizes me. Love escaped years ago. Thanks so much for this wonderful cover, Birdy. No one might read this tiny comment but I needed to write my heart out. This song means so much to me.

    Skinny Love, by definition, is a relationship between two friends who both love each other deeply but never have the courage to admit their true feelings - leaving the other stranded when they move on from those emotions in attempt to save themselves from heartbreak.

    Come on skinny love just last the year
    Pour a little salt we were never here
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
    Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
    I tell my love to wreck it all
    Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
    Right in the moment this order's tall
    I told you to be patient
    I told you to be fine
    I told you to be balanced
    I told you to be kind
    In the morning I'll be with you
    But it will be a different kind
    'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets
    And you'll be owning all the fines
    Come on skinny love what happened here
    Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
    Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
    I told you to be patient
    I told you to be fine
    I told you to be balanced
    I told you to be kind
    Now all your love is wasted?
    Then who the hell was I?
    Now I'm breaking at the bridges
    And at the end of all your lines
    Who will love you?
    Who will fight?
    Who will fall far behind?
    Come on skinny love

    When I was 12, I heard the line, "And I told you to be patient; And I told you to be fine; And I told you to be balanced; And I told you to be kind," because they were words written on a staircase. I never bothered to look them up. But they kind of resonated with me and I held onto them for years- as encouragement in a way. It wasn't till now that I've heard this song and when I heard her sing those words, I cried because I had forgotten them but never in my worst moments.

    Birdy’s cover has that sound and vibe that is like you and your ex have been broken up for a long period of time. You’ve both had time to grow and move on from each other. You’re finding forgiveness within yourself and the relationship.
    But Bon Iver’s original...man, this is what it sounds like immediately after the breakup. You’re angry. You’re sad. You’re accusing. You wanted it to work, but it ended ugly. You want to know what, why, and how. You’re trying to forget them, but the memories won’t leave.
    The original has this emotion that no cover can ever capture. It has those true voice cracks .The original is truly what Justin Vernon was feeling in the time of a breakup. It’s a sound when songwriting that nobody can replicate unless they’re truly feeling it in that exact moment. That’s what makes this version truly beautiful.

    • @kattykat9600
      @kattykat9600 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I get what you are saying for sure, and Bon Iver's is definitely raw with emotion, but I love this version better, it's more bittersweet. Maybe you're right, it depends on what part of your life you are in, a raw fresh break up or looking back on one. Great song either way though!

    Come on skinny love just last the year
    Pour a little salt we were never here
    My my my, my my my, my my my my-my...
    Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
    tell my love to wreck it all
    Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
    My my my, my my my, my my my my-my...
    Right in the moment this order's tall
    And I told you to be patient
    And I told you to be fine
    And I told you to be balanced
    And I told you to be kind
    And in the morning I'll be with you
    But it will be a different kind
    'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets
    And you'll be owning all the fines
    Come on skinny love, what happened here?
    Suckle on the hope in light brassieres
    My my my, my my my, my my my my-my...
    Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
    And I told you to be patient
    And I told you to be fine
    And I told you to be balanced
    And I told you to be kind
    And now all our love is wasted
    Then who the hell was I?
    'Cause now I'm breaking at the bridges
    And at the end of all your lies
    Who will love you?
    Who will fight?
    And who will fall far behind?
    Come on skinny love

    This version is beautiful, but completely incomparable to Bon Iver's. Birdy sings it from a teenager's point of view, where everything is so black and white. Bon Iver sings it from an experienced point of view, where nothing is black and white. He wrote the song to be a mix of emotions, and sings it as so. Not only is he sad, but angry, and acknowledges the joy he has felt in the relationship as well. Birdy has given the song more of a pained feeling, which is perfect for young heart break. However, Bon Iver sings the song with passion and expresses truth that relationships are more complicated than purely depression after heartbreak. It pains me when people say this version is so much better because I feel as though they are missing the point of what the song is written about. It is not about sadness, it is about love.

    • @adamwatson1786

      I interpreted the song as an infusion of both, sadness and love. I think Birdy approached the song in a inconsolable way (probably the emotions from a past relationship) and Bon had a more upbeat tempo which hints towards the topic of love, rather than sadness. However, "Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer" hints at depression, and in my opinion, the 'crushed veneer' is her skin and the blood is hers. I think she's referring to self harm, and also 'skinny love' might be her? The whole "I told you" part hints at this, well to me anyway. But, that's the incredible thing about music, everyone creates their own interpretations.

    • @ladycarabali1
      @ladycarabali1 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Songs are suppose to be a way of expression, so it does not matter if she sings the song different then Bon Iver, black and white is what it means to her, and I am going to say I love this version more.

    • @JordannWoOoO
      @JordannWoOoO 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ***** I think the fact that you're not at all reading into it is much, much worse than hardly reading into it and judging the song difference purely by voices. This is, after all, Bon Ivers song. I have known and loved it for much longer than I have even known that this version was a thing so yes, I am biased. But what I think important is what you get out of the song, I hope you look into it enough to get something from it or that when you mean voices, you mean emotions. But music does different things for different people and I guess it's just good that people are enjoying both versions.

      Christina Grimmie didn't deserve to be shot. None of the people who died this year have deserved to, and really made a difference. She was so talented and beautiful, sad. Here's what Adam said and is very true: "Christina was a natural, gifted talent that comes along so rarely," wrote singer Adam Levine, who was Grimmie's mentor on "The Voice." ''She was taken from us too soon."

It doesn't sound like she sings that great, and the piano playing wasn't aything complicated either. I do like her rendition of this song though.

    Hi Birdy!
    I don't think you will be able to read this, but anyway.
    Five years ago I stumbled upon your song and instantly fell in love with it. Hearing it first was like walking in a rainy forest. From then I listened to it for almost every day. I would sometimes shed some because it is so beautiful.
    Your song had inspired me to do things. Not everything went well, but I still play the piano and Skinny Love is my all time favourite.
    You also inspired me to learn English so that I could fully understand the lyrics. It took some time to understand what pouring salt meant, but now that I know it made the song sound even more beautiful. I know it's not what you wrote but anyway.
    Back in 2011 no friends of mine knew Birdy ;( but it's amazing where you stand now! You truly deserve it. Maybe little more. I'm really happy to see you getting bigger and bigger yet better and better.
    Please keep doing what you love, you really are talented, and be happy.
    Love from Jin.

    Times like this, 5am when I am thinking about my sister (she passed on in a tragic road accident on 11th May 2024) I go to songs she loved. And sometimes, it's like she's passing me little messages of hope from her grave. Like this one. I told you to be patient, I told you to be kind. I think she knows how hard I'm struggling to be kind to myself and how tired I am of being patient with life. I want to think its her little messages to hold on for just the next second....

    Elena,
    It’s no easy task being an ordinary parent to an extrordinary child. I failed in that task. And because of my prejudices, I failed you. I am haunted by how things might have turned out differently if I had been more willing to hear your side of things. For me it’s the end. For you, a chance to grow old and someday do better with your own child than I did with mine. It’s for that child that I give you my ring. I don’t ask for your forgiveness or for you to forget. I ask only that you believe this: whether you are now reading this as a human or as a vampire, I love you all the same, as I’ve always loved you and always will.
    John

      Hope things turn out well for you, it sounds like your part of a story that may not have gone the way you wanted it to go, but a great story all the same. It's not over, you can still change things, and I guess that's why your here.
      Hope your going strong and that your daughter it too, she sounds truly amazing. :)
      I'm glad that your letting her know that she is appreciated.
      Try to stop worrying also, life was never meant to be that way though sometimes I guess it isn't easy.
      Good luck,
      Lots of love,

    Lyrics of the song
    Come on, skinny love, just last the year
    Pour a little salt, we were never here
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
    Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
    Tell my love to wreck it all
    Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
    Right at the moment, this order's tall
    And I told you to be patient
    And I told you to be fine
    And I told you to be balanced
    And I told you to be kind
    And in the morning, I'll be with you
    But it will be a different kind
    'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets
    And you'll be owning all the fines
    Come on skinny love, what happened here?
    Suckle on the hope in light brassiere
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
    Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
    And I told you to be patient
    And I told you to be fine
    And I told you to be balanced
    And I told you to be kind
    And now, all your love is wasted
    Then who the hell was I?
    'Cause now I'm breaking at the bridges
    And at the end of all your lies
    Who will love you?
    Who will fight?
    And who will fall far behind?
    Come on skinny love
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
    My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my

      44 to 54, this is one of those artists that do a cover extreme justice. One question though, has your interpretation of the lyrics changed over the years?

      You're not alone trying to survive after a worst relationship. I've been in that experience that sometimes I want to kill myself to end up the pain and suffering. Just be strong, keep on praying for healing and peace of mind. Keep yourself busy. You know i didn't share or talk to anyone about what i felt. I isolate myself and silence, i keep crying every now and then, but i hope and pray I'll be okay one day. Praying for your healing also.
