why am I barely finding this cover. I've known this song for years constantly searching for covers of this song. But im glad I came across this video now. veryyyy beautiful
Great cover! Just slow it down. The tempo might've been a stylistic choice, I get that, but I think the feeling of the song is really caught in a slower melody.
Yup, tempo crept up, didn't it? Glad you still got something from it. It was a bit of 'red light syndrome' I guess - knowing it was being filmed in one take on a tight timescale!
Matt Stalker beautiful.... the strings seemed unnecessary, but your vocals & guitar were wonderful. Yes, slow the tempo down. This is one of my favorite songs!!
i have listened to this wonderful music each day since lockdown began. I often wonder what has become of Matt Stalker, who has a fine voice yet seems not to be using it much ? Anyway, tremendous guys. Thankyou.
I heard he's still around and though not really making music nowadays, he occasionally comes here to shake his head in disbelief that so many people listened to this song that he thought was just a silly little cover to promote a show back in 2014 played too fast. Just a rumour though.
@@mattstalker4084 Thank you for response Matt. Saddened to hear the music has dried up, I would have travelled to listen to that wonderful voice of yours. I disagree about the tempo of the re-stacks song btw. It seemed perfect to me. Take care friend, I hope life will be kind.
Just beautiful. I've seen some comments about the tempo being too fast but I think it does a lot for your voice with the song, man. This is one of those covers that you start watching and by the end you're sitting with your eyes closed, just pulled into the depth of it. Great job, man.
It's faster than the original for sure. But it's a cover and he made it his own. Some may like it some may not, neither gets to be correct in an opinion.
This is stunning. I'm even loving the strings in the background! Brings back a little of the depth that's lost with the tempo(which to be honest I'm not really even complaining about the tempo. You made red light syndrome work in your favor!)
contrary to some comments, I quite liked your tempo. You made it your own while staying true to the original. The strings replace the rawness that Justin brings to the vocals.
I love this rendition, would love to hear it at a slower pace, and I know you know as a fellow musician this is too fast. But, still a BEAUTIFUL rendition.
Lyrics.. This my excavation and today is kumran Everything that happens is from now on This is pouring rain This is paralyzed I keep throwing it down two-hundred at a time It's hard to find it when you knew it When your money's gone And you're drunk as hell On your back with your racks as the stacks are your load In the back and the racks and the stacks of your load In the back with your racks and you're un-stacking your load Well I've been twisting to the sun and the moon I needed to replace The fountain in the front yard is rusted out All my love was down In a frozen ground There's a black crow sitting across from me His wiry legs are crossed He is dangling my keys, he even fakes a toss Whatever could it be That has brought me to this loss? On your back with your racks as the stacks are your load In the back and the racks and the stacks of your load In the back with your racks and you're un-stacking your load This is not the sound of a new man or crispy realization It's the sound of the unlocking and the lift away Your love will be
This my excavation and to Day is Qumran Everything that happens is from now on This is pouring rain This is paralyzed I keep throwing it down, two Hundred at a time It's hard to find it when you knew it When your money's gone And you're drunk as hell On your back with your racks as he stacks your load In the back with the racks and he stacks your load In the back with the racks and you're unstacking your load I've been twisting to the sun I needed to replace And the fountain in the front yard is rusted out All my love was down In a frozen ground There's a black crow sitting across from me His wiry legs are crossed He's dangling my keys, he even fakes a toss Whatever could it be That has brought me to this loss? On your back with your racks as he stacks your load In the back with the racks and he stacks your load In the back with the racks and you're unstacking your load This is not the sound of a new man Or a crispy realization It's the sound of me unlocking and you lift away Your love will be Safe with me
How's it going? We saw you were of this great music and thought we'd come introduce ourselves. We go by the name Red Empire. We're a band out of Dublin, Ireland. It's not so easy to get your music heard in our country, so we thought we'd take to the internet to get some feedback on our songs. It would really mean a lot if you'd come check out our original tunes. We think you'll like it. Let us know what you think! Thanks.
+Joanna Routledge Hey. Do you have a trombone player in your massive band?? My friend is seeking one for some parts on her new record. If you do, please email at wearefables@gmail.com. Cheers! x
why didn't they cover more of Bon Iver's songs this is exactly what i need
why am I barely finding this cover. I've known this song for years constantly searching for covers of this song. But im glad I came across this video now. veryyyy beautiful
The absolute best reinterpretation of this song i've found. Just beautiful. I would love to see you do a studio version with a quartet
Amazing Performance...1,287 views is a joke this should be in the millions
Wow. This deserves way more views.
Years late but this is an amazing cover! Hope you are all proud of it!
All the best
/D
This is a masterpiece. Truly breathtaking!
Amazing clear voice in the high notes, man! The arrangement is very good too.
-10% speed and it's fucking perfect
Great cover! Just slow it down. The tempo might've been a stylistic choice, I get that, but I think the feeling of the song is really caught in a slower melody.

Matt Stalker beautiful.... the strings seemed unnecessary, but your vocals & guitar were wonderful. Yes, slow the tempo down. This is one of my favorite songs!!

I so love this..
beautiful
Bloody brilliant! As good as the original and different in its own unique and creative way. Love your stuff!
With a better sound recording, perfect!!!
Just beautiful. I've seen some comments about the tempo being too fast but I think it does a lot for your voice with the song, man. This is one of those covers that you start watching and by the end you're sitting with your eyes closed, just pulled into the depth of it. Great job, man.
Keith Paluso thank you so much, buddy. Means a lot
That is such a great cover!! i loved it!!
this is actually great! I love how the cello and the violin suit very well this song and I also love your voice!
Just amazing. You guys should have more views.
man this is beautiful
Well done guys!!!
Love your voice! But is the tempo a little fast or is it just me?
Way fast.
It's faster than the original for sure. But it's a cover and he made it his own. Some may like it some may not, neither gets to be correct in an opinion.
Amazing
This is stunning. I'm even loving the strings in the background! Brings back a little of the depth that's lost with the tempo(which to be honest I'm not really even complaining about the tempo. You made red light syndrome work in your favor!)
This is insanely good
Loooove this.
chills fam
That was fucking awesome.
love.
YES!
Great! Thank you..
Omg Best cover yet 🤘
fucking beautiful. well done indeed
wow wow wow! great job guys!!!!!!!!! i just wish it was a bit slower. but anyway you're amazing
Awesome
beautiful
contrary to some comments, I quite liked your tempo. You made it your own while staying true to the original. The strings replace the rawness that Justin brings to the vocals.
Nice!
Good job ! :)
i like the sped up tempo its an interesting take on the song
This is just beautiful. I like this better than the original. All credit to Bon Iver, but I still think this version pops more.
Noah McDaniel you have no respect, shameless😂
I love this rendition, would love to hear it at a slower pace, and I know you know as a fellow musician this is too fast. But, still a BEAUTIFUL rendition.
Lyrics..
This my excavation and today is kumran
Everything that happens is from now on
This is pouring rain
This is paralyzed
I keep throwing it down two-hundred at a time
It's hard to find it when you knew it
When your money's gone
And you're drunk as hell
On your back with your racks as the stacks are your load
In the back and the racks and the stacks of your load
In the back with your racks and you're un-stacking your load
Well I've been twisting to the sun and the moon
I needed to replace
The fountain in the front yard is rusted out
All my love was down
In a frozen ground
There's a black crow sitting across from me
His wiry legs are crossed
He is dangling my keys, he even fakes a toss
Whatever could it be
That has brought me to this loss?
On your back with your racks as the stacks are your load
In the back and the racks and the stacks of your load
In the back with your racks and you're un-stacking your load
This is not the sound of a new man or crispy realization
It's the sound of the unlocking and the lift away
Your love will be
The only criticism i have is the tempo. The song is meant to be slow. Its about forgiveness. Its supposed to be sincere and meaningful. That is all.
Yup. Red light syndrome, Ross.
Wow, only 300 views???
what tuning is this in?
nice
damn
i really wanted the tabs... Or at least what tuning did you used to make this cover??
DADF#AD capo at 6th fret. Shapes are very easy, just look at my hands!
Very nice folks. I think if you slow it down a touch would be even better
anyone concerned about the tempo being a bit too fast just change it to .75 speed. Hope this helped.
genius
such an amazing voice :) i would love to meet u i sing too :)
try playing it at 0.75x
This my excavation and to
Day is Qumran
Everything that happens is from now on
This is pouring rain
This is paralyzed
I keep throwing it down, two
Hundred at a time
It's hard to find it when you knew it
When your money's gone
And you're drunk as hell
On your back with your racks as he stacks your load
In the back with the racks and he stacks your load
In the back with the racks and you're unstacking your load
I've been twisting to the sun
I needed to replace
And the fountain in the front yard is rusted out
All my love was down
In a frozen ground
There's a black crow sitting across from me
His wiry legs are crossed
He's dangling my keys, he even fakes a toss
Whatever could it be
That has brought me to this loss?
On your back with your racks as he stacks your load
In the back with the racks and he stacks your load
In the back with the racks and you're unstacking your load
This is not the sound of a new man
Or a crispy realization
It's the sound of me unlocking and you lift away
Your love will be
Safe with me
Very very good.. but would be better if you slow it down a little bit!
Greetings from Germany
Yup. Agreed. A little bit of red light syndrome, LaKustick. Thanks for the comment.
It's perfect at 0.75 speed
Nice song, what you in for...never seen you on the wing, you in general population ?
Playing too fast. In for a 3 stretch. I was set up. I was told it was on tempo.
Bro how tf did you hit those notes 😂 i dont like my falsetto but i cant reach those hahaha so i cant cover this correctly
tight pants
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Set playback speed to 0.75x thank me later ;)
amazing, bit slower though please!
This would have been far better with decent recording equipment - sounds like you recorded this with a phone
Mic built into the DSLR - quick and dirty for promo the day of a show.
:*
Ee Matt, that's better than the original x
+Joanna Routledge Hey. Do you have a trombone player in your massive band?? My friend is seeking one for some parts on her new record. If you do, please email at wearefables@gmail.com. Cheers! x
I like it! Too fast but all the rest is cherry af
Yup. Red light syndrome!
