This man never ceases to amaze me... he was at the height of his mainstream career here with so much spotlight attention and was getting on covers of magazines, getting booked on jimmy fallon and even touring all over... and he walked away from all of it because he knew the corrupt nature of the music industry and with no hesitation he let it all go, because being a genuine artist was more important then fame and fortune. I love you Justin, you inspire me everyday. :-)
Allow me to clear up a couple of things. He is marginally talented and I can't hum nor remember a single song. Where are the BeeGees when you need them?
in a pitchfork interview he said he doesnt give a shit how you pronounce it, and there isnt really a right way to do it since its not an actual word but the misspelling of a french word. So, it is technically not wrong.
"Bon hiver" means "good winter" in French. It is often said at the first snowfall of the year and was used in an episode of the tv show Northern Exposure. From what I understand, this is where Justin got the name from and why the band played Northern Exposure's theme song as he walked out to the interview.
@@EmilyRose1 She was in a band called "Mount Vernon" with Justin when they were in high school. She was a real person and she was intimate with him until about a year before he made the debut album.
I don’t like how jimmy is joking about his depression because i did that myself and I never knew how bad it was until now so Im going to stop taking it lightly
This guy needs to release a new album soon so I can see him back on Fallon. Also, snl would be nice. I'd like to see him confront Justin Timberlake on his impression.
Jimmy Fallon's a nice guy and all, but he inserts way too much of himself into the interview. Actually, it might be a mistake to call it an interview because he hardly lets Justin get a word in edgewise. And Jimmy does this constantly, with every guest on his show.
jspqmcn That's crazy. I've been pronouncing it wrong this whole time. I've even gotten some of my friends into Bon Iver, and I've pronounced it wrong to them. I had no clue.
Wish all late night hosts talked with their musical guests and not just give them time to play a song. We know their music, it’s nice to get to know the artist as well.
This is exactly how NOT to interview someone!!! Justin Vernon is an exceptional artist and instead of treating the audience to an education, Jimmy Fallon interrupts, misleads and generally makes the whole interaction about himself! I was disappointed watching this! Just to be clear.... Justin Vernon is a god and suffered Jimmy Fallon with dignity!!!!!
One of the few times I saw jimmy being real in an interview, since he plays and likes music he was very natural here. Most other times he tries too hard to be cool and fails, with lots of forced laughs.
Jimmy was kind of trolling him here, "You've come far from that frozen cabin" He is a little too talkative to be a good interviewer but if I were Justin I'd appreciate Jimmy's obvious appreciation for my music without me having to come up with things to say.
I thought he was from iceland or some nordic country. I first heard holocene on a video of some guy forging an axe head in some cold, snowy place, then i saw the video with that boy in the cabin out in the middle of nowhere, and bon iver looks like a nordic name, so my bubble was burst when i founrd out he's just a 'murcan musician.
tomaf Hes probably got some scandinavian in him based on where hes from. But why does it matter where an artist is from as long as the music is good? Other than to make it 'exotic'
Most of this interview was just Fallon blabbering on about whatever, with Justin occasionally pitching in with a clever remark. Still great, nonetheless.
what's so ironic is that Matt Boomer is on set and is sitting beside Justin. when i consider that the first time i heard Bon Iver was on the show Chuck where Matt Boomer played Bryce Larkin.
He references both in the same interview when he got asked that question. Emma was a real girl that Justin was intimate with wayyy back in the day, however he concludes that same quote by saying Emma is a pain in your life you can't forget and that's what the album is about.
this is the 3rd time i’ve heard someone with a falsetto who’s singing voice ascends to the heavens, but their speaking voice drops to the floor edit: coming back to say that it’s to be expected, but it still sounds really weird
where in the fuck is the live performance from when JV sat in the ROots on the old Fallon?! It's a couple of the best performances of all time and it's been scrubbed from the internet!! If anyone has it on a hard drive I'll pay you for it!!
The house band is playing the the title track from the 90s CBS tv show, Northern Exposure. There was an episode from that show called Bon Iver. (good winter)
I love how deep his talking voice is but he always sings in such high falsetto.
Deeper voices often have better falsettos than singers with a higher natural voice.
He did sing in bass in Exile ft. Taylor, and his voice was very exquisite!
@@len9192 I really wanna hear more of him in his deep voice
0:19 nothing like synchronized leg crossing
Lexi Hare haha and no handshake
holy shit.
i cant stop watching this
You’re so weird for noticing this 😂😂😂
Exactly, it kind of bugged me.
Bon Iver is the best thing that ever happened to music.
Amen
Amen x2

2018 he did the Michelberger festival. 2019 Blogotheque. Dude is performing at his peak.

@@CarrotCompany bro is the most talented musician of the 21st century
@@CarrotCompany listen to Drinking this rain/im on fire, absolutly one of the best songs ever made
i've been pronouncing bon iver wrong this whole time?
+Dan English same bro. same.
+Dan English Bon Iver is an intentional misspelling of "bon hiver", which is french for "nice winter"
+PURE162 lol...no
Same lmfao

I feel as though we need to thank Emma... Without her we wouldn't have such beautiful music that I feel we all can relate to
Emma is not a real woman lol
Emma is the middle name of a real person.
F*ck Emma in the FACE. He was brilliant before then. Guaranteed.
@@EmilyRose1 She was in a band called "Mount Vernon" with Justin when they were in high school. She was a real person and she was intimate with him until about a year before he made the debut album.
Nah fuck her
Justin is a beautiful man.
Nya G u beautiful 2
Exile brought me here. His voice is mesmerizing
Saw Bon Iver in Portugal last night.
Fucking astonishing. Justin is a straight up musical genius.
Real Music on a fake show
+Daniel Jackson fucking right brotha.
well I've been saying his name wrong
How do you mispronounce Justin?
They were probably mispronouncing "Bon Iver".
Emma Fisher haha you reckon
Yeah I meant Bon Iver hahah
Cat Westley seriously Lol the correct pronunciation sounds like one word
i love jimmy and his fangirl ways here. i'd be buzzing with questions too, and Justin's so chill. ugh i love him
more like bong rips and whiskey when listening to Emma album
+Hassan Abdillahi (Juice) Yeah Buddy!
I don’t like how jimmy is joking about his depression because i did that myself and I never knew how bad it was until now so Im going to stop taking it lightly
he seems like a big fan
he is such a deep guy I can tell its hard for him with this unipersonal shallow stuff
"Bon iver" means "happy winter", which would actually be a good name for a cabin!
I appreciate the Northern Exposure theme as he walks on hahaha
This guy needs to release a new album soon so I can see him back on Fallon. Also, snl would be nice. I'd like to see him confront Justin Timberlake on his impression.
Fallon annoyed the shit out of me in this interview. Anybody else feel the same?
Actually this felt surprisingly sincere, not annoying at all
He didn't let Justin get a word in edgewise.. BUT.. I do love me some Jimmy Fallon
I think Jimmy knew Justin wasn't much of a talker so he figured he'd offer him the courtesy of carrying the interview. It turned out well, I think.
Fallon annoys the shit out of me ALL of the time so yeah, I feel the same.
This was actually less annoying then usual
Omg thank you TH-cam for recommending this
He's so cute I CAN'T 😩❤
I love how he can’t stop smiling
Justin was soooooo humbled
Jimmy Fallon's a nice guy and all, but he inserts way too much of himself into the interview. Actually, it might be a mistake to call it an interview because he hardly lets Justin get a word in edgewise. And Jimmy does this constantly, with every guest on his show.
HE'S SOOOO CUTEEE
Bon Iver is my heart.
love your picture!.. Skinny Fists is one of my favourite albums of all time.
Jimmy Fallon can spoil anything.
Bon Iver (Bon Hiver)? (Nice winter)
Not in Canada.
verysillypenguin Its not ivory. He just shortened hiver to iver because hiver reminded him of liver disease or something.
Mottahead actually Bon hiver means have a good winter
evilcraft99 Anyways, not in Canada. Just way too fucking long.
Quebecois here I can confirm
evilcraft99 Got a problem with that?
No, I'm so disturbed that it's not pronounced the way I thought it was. Bone Eevehr wtf?
comes from french "bon hiver" which means "happy winter", he just removed the H. So the pronounciation is kinda alike the french one
jspqmcn That's crazy. I've been pronouncing it wrong this whole time. I've even gotten some of my friends into Bon Iver, and I've pronounced it wrong to them. I had no clue.
What makes me angry is that I've been saying bon in a French accent then I found out he pronounces bon as "BONE".
IanBpa haha yea "bon" is pronounced "bone" because its in front of "hiver"... French and it's damn liaisons :D
Ah, that makes sense actually.
Wish all late night hosts talked with their musical guests and not just give them time to play a song. We know their music, it’s nice to get to know the artist as well.

no way they played the northern exposure theme ! incredible haha
04:10 - The moment when the balance of the Universe was established again.
What a great, great man.
2:55 at 0.75 speed makes it sounded like a drunken conversation
hungryghost11 😂😂😂
That's how his music sounds like too
not enough Hornsby in my scene.
What's with all the haters? I love jimmy , he's awesome
He is amazing
One of the few times I saw jimmy being real in an interview, since he plays and likes music he was very natural here. Most other times he tries too hard to be cool and fails, with lots of forced laughs.
The Northern Exposure instrumental was tight
The interview is mainly jimmy talking, let the introvert artist talk! Love bon iver
Anyone notice that the Billboard magasine cover has "Fallon" on it also?
Perfect knee sync at :19 seconds in.. haha
Freakin' Fallon did 95% of the talking
Ahhh I love this!
whats the song that the band plays at the end? its sounds familiar..
Wow. God's first Late Night interview. Loved it.
typical taurus grrRRRRHR i love this puppy
Jimmy was kind of trolling him here, "You've come far from that frozen cabin"
He is a little too talkative to be a good interviewer but if I were Justin I'd appreciate Jimmy's obvious appreciation for my music without me having to come up with things to say.
Perfect leg cross sync at 0:19
I actually thought the interview was pretty good...
Me too
Jimmy is talking so much. I wanna hear him talk
bonny bear bonny bear a man after my own heart
I’ve always pronounced it ‘Bon Eye-ver’👀
You've always pronounced it wrong, lol.
Ha! the first time i heard Beth/Rest I thought "Bruce Hornsby."
'This needs more hornsby' lol
Which album they were talking about?
I thought he was from iceland or some nordic country. I first heard holocene on a video of some guy forging an axe head in some cold, snowy place, then i saw the video with that boy in the cabin out in the middle of nowhere, and bon iver looks like a nordic name, so my bubble was burst when i founrd out he's just a 'murcan musician.

Link to performance?
Jesus jimmy
Does anyone know what kind of shoes they are wearing?
so where's the song he did next?
Search, Bon Iver I can't make you love me, nick of time. He's wearing the same shirt he was in the interview. look for that!
0:19 that was so synchronized...
I feel like he and i would be good friends
Most of this interview was just Fallon blabbering on about whatever, with Justin occasionally pitching in with a clever remark. Still great, nonetheless.
Fallon makes me nauseus anyway. But that Justin is in the same space as JF makes me really feel sick.
This is why he went into hiding
what the fuck I've had the band name wrong this whole time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is that really how you pronounce bon iver
alan watts
Bone Ivur
idk why but I thought he was british
What a well spoken young man! Now only if his music was as understandable..
holy shit, fallon really doesn't let the guests talk, does he? lmao
way to talk during the entire interview
Is it just me or is Jimmy fangirling HARD?
Here's his performance that he did on that episode in case anyone was wondering th-cam.com/video/_w1bInaC424/w-d-xo.html
Makes me so happy to know I've been pronouncing his name right all this time.. I knew I wasn't crazy. Take that Jacob from high school 6 years ago!
🤣🤣
hate how Jimmy is talking more than Justin
thank you for saying that! i thought the same thing
+Noor E. it's obvious how Jimmy is nervous in the presence of Justin, which says a lot about the impact of Bon Iver... respect
Sounds like a lot of Jimmy Fallon interviews
I’m way late but I thought “shut the fuck up Fallon”. Dammit. No wonder I never watch any late night shows any more. Where is Craig Ferguson?!?
*BONNIE VAIR*
even him talking sounds beautiful
what's so ironic is that Matt Boomer is on set and is sitting beside Justin. when i consider that the first time i heard Bon Iver was on the show Chuck where Matt Boomer played Bryce Larkin.
I’ve been saying his name wrong. I said like “bon aiver” 😂
I think Emma is more like a concept than a girl Emma is a emotion Emma is heartbreak Emma represents pain
He references both in the same interview when he got asked that question. Emma was a real girl that Justin was intimate with wayyy back in the day, however he concludes that same quote by saying Emma is a pain in your life you can't forget and that's what the album is about.
I always thought it was pronounced bon iver not bon iver
this is the 3rd time i’ve heard someone with a falsetto who’s singing voice ascends to the heavens, but their speaking voice drops to the floor
edit: coming back to say that it’s to be expected, but it still sounds really weird
where in the fuck is the live performance from when JV sat in the ROots on the old Fallon?! It's a couple of the best performances of all time and it's been scrubbed from the internet!!
If anyone has it on a hard drive I'll pay you for it!!
I found some unlisted Fallon videos (the Lip Sync videos) in a playlist, so it might be on a playlist somewhere.
The house band is playing the the title track from the 90s CBS tv show, Northern Exposure. There was an episode from that show called Bon Iver. (good winter)
I can't watch this whole clip. How does Jimmy Fallon still have a show
oh shut up...
QueerAndUnplugged the suspense is killing me
knifeforkandaspoon I'm still waiting
I think Jimmy Fallon is fan girling here. I've seen this many times and just commented now. Haha
i've always compared his albums to the seasons
Well they kind of are :-)
I'm not going to lie, Jimmy made this video very hard to watch! But Justin helped me through it.
Jimmy, you couldn't let the man talk?
Shouts to Emma 🫡 thanks for breakin my guys 💔
Please marry me Justin Vernon
