To the people arguing about Birdy's cover: I heard that first and thought it was gorgeous and went searching for the original, and am now a huge fan of Bon Iver. Covers are a good thing, they help great music reach new audiences.
Birdy sucks period. I cant take it when some kid who has a monotone nasally voice with no emotion to sing a song that they don't know the meaning of the lyrics. Bon Iver fucking locked himself a way for months in a cabin when life was getting him down and wrote this master peace and him singing it you can tell by his voice how much emotion there is. Because these are his feelings and thoughts and no one can beat this no cover can.
While I do believe birdy is a phenomenal singer, it is not right she gives no credit to bon Iver in her title misleading people into thinking that it is her song when in fact it's actually a cover of a legendary artist.
I remember hearing this song with my Natalie It made her want to cry She always said she wasn't crying But I could see it in her eyes I miss her everyday 2 years gone in September God rest her beautiful soul
I burnt this song on a CD back in 2009. It was my first year of University (yes I am that old) in a new city and I felt so lost and lonely. I used to listen to Skinny Love all the time and cry. 13 years later it still hits me right in the feels as soon as the song starts, but it's still one of my very favourites.
Same year of 2009, same status of a fresh student in the first semester, similar feeling of a new big city with all the friends left back home - can totally relate to that comment of yours. I’m just wondering whether we all are destined to have these nostalgic bitter feelings whenever it comes to any retrospective. Couldn’t find any joy in the thoughts of an upcoming time for the last 2+ years.
Beautiful, bittersweet memories to this song. Driving through a forest, during a heavy snow, with my ex. No other cars, no streetlights...we could have been the last two on earth. And in that moment, I'd have been happy if that were the case. The relationship may not have been a pleasant one, but memories as serene and beautiful such as these made the pain worthwhile.
same man, my ex loved this song and i loved her. Too bad she cheated on me. But at the end of the day, in just a few months, it made me a much stronger man. Or atleast a 23 year if you would all me a man haha
14 years ago! Gosh. This song is a time machine, we used to live slower and more patient, and i keep coming here to time travel for a instance and then get back to the present, the present is now, make it the best you can.
I sit. I close my eyes. I listen. I forget all my problems and worries, and just sit in blissful appreciation of the beautiful music. Then I open my eyes, and find the replay button. Repeat until you're the most relaxed you've ever been.
I heard Birdys version first on pandora, fell in love, found the original, and fell in love all over again. This song... It is beauty. True musicianship.
Justin Vernon wrote this album in northern Wisconsin. I lived in the northern midwest for most of my life, and his songs really resonate with me that way. The midwest is a place that nobody who doesn't live there cares about. It's not spectacular or exciting. Those who live there know not to care about this, but to make their lives spectacular and exciting by the memories they make and the things they do, making their lives more intimate and real. This is really reflected in Bon Iver's songs.
@@zogwort1522 Haha! You may be right. But if you DO find a way to make it work it definitely is worth all the pain and mistakes suffered to get there. The sad relations are also better suited for dramatic music 😄
Hersheyyy I totally agree. The original has a feel and his voice is so much better sounding with this song. I think birdy sounds good but her version is too light and doesn't have as much emotion as bon ivers version IMO.
It's 2012. Im on the bus with my group of friends. Going around ireland during summer break. Im looking out the window. There's a cloud that covers a huge hill. With a huge lake in the distance. Life is fantastic. My group of friends is amazing.
I love how its like super sad if you listen the lyrics, but still souds kind of happy if you dont listen the lyrikcs so carefully. But in the end of the song you can hear the pain in his voice over the "happy melody"... :'(
"You're in a relationship because you need help, but that’s not necessarily why you should be in a relationship. And that’s skinny. It doesn’t have weight. Skinny love doesn’t have a chance because it’s not nourished."
I honestly thought it was about losing his girlfriend to cancer. His vocals sound so hopeless but trying to be strong for her sake. Come on skinny love just last the year. As if he doesnt want her to go.
This is song opened a door for me in way that I've realized you need to love yourself to love other and most importantly to embrace life and make everyday as your best. It's a sin not to get a back up and there are always people there for you.
his favourite. if i would ever see him again, i don't know what should i do but i just know that i miss him so much, more than i can tell, massive pain on my chest everytime i recall about him. his smile, pointless talks, beer on the beach, football matches, billiard, jack daniels, he's eating crab, finding toilet, his jokes on me, the first sight and friday morning. he is massive memories to me but sometime killing me. i miss you dude xx
As soon as this song came out in 2008 when I was just 14, I fell in love with it and now I am 18 I still love it! So 6 days ago I turned 18 (yay) and I wanted a tattoo on the day of my birthday... What tattoo idea did I think of? Of course I thought of Skinny Love! So on 25/10/2012 I got '' I told you to be patient, fine, balanced, kind'' around my thigh, I am so happy that I got it! Yeah yeah I know most people go ''You will regret that'' but to be honest, no I won't! Not even when I'm 95!!!
wow this song is absolutely beautiful! i’ve only heard birdies version and she definitely puts her own spin on it so it’s refreshing to hear this original version and how different and unique and just beautiful it is. this is honestly super underrated, but birdy definitely deserves the recognition she gets for her cover ❤
I believe that the ones who makes music can often save lives. It's my case, I live through music. I feel so much depressed in this time, but I want to live and to move on. This song came in my life the first time so long ago, now I remember it, I feel some kinda hope I wish I can overcome all my bad thoughts, and I am so in debt with music that keeps me company and makes me feel I have to hold on for beauty and emotions that gaves me.
the song has you remember things you dont want to but shouldnt ever forget....... in a way it helps you move on but will never let you forget about the things that make us human and what make us who we are.
I've discovered Bon Iver and Ben Howard today! i feel fucking lucky been listening to their music for the past 5 hours. absolutely beautiful and speaks to my soul.
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 My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Now I'm breaking at the britches* (britches are pants, tearing at the seems; i.e: he's getting fat -- as opposed to his love, which is skinny, due to the lack of nourishment and care)
Even though I've listened to this song a thousand times, it still gives me chills. You can literally _feel_ the pain and emotion run through your body. No covers will ever do this justice.
None is better than the other, i personlally prefer the guitar over a piano on this song, and that is just my prefference, someone else might like a piano over a guitar. Listen to what you feel like, and don't make others choose for you.
Bon Iver - Skinny Love James Vincent McMorrow - We Don't Eat Jacko Hooper - Too Far To Sea Thank goodness for artists like these, real music, real people
Probably the best way that it could be said - both are perfectly beautiful in and on their own :) It's like comparing different renditions of church pieces being played on different instruments. All are wonderful :)
everytime I hear this song i feel like being in love or losing the love of my life . there are so many emotions in his voice that i can´t classify the feelings i have. it makes me cry but in a good way
This is REAL emotion here. Birdy was just doing a cover. I think people like her version more because one; her voice is soft and haunting and two; her version is depressing with the piano and everything else. This song reminds me of Pumped Up Kicks by The Fosters. It's a song with sad, real emotion but the happy upbeat track is an attempt to hide it. I perfer this one, but I am not going to lie and say "OH I KNEW THIS WAAYYY BEFORE BIRDY". Cause no, I didn't. It took Birdy's cover to find this, so I am thankful. Yes, I do like Birdy's cover and she really does have talent, it's just this one is more authentic.
I think this is beautiful. I had only heard Birdy's version, and hers made me feel things I had forgotten. Bon Ivers' version of it makes me feel other things that I had not forgotten. Possibly just unresolved. Either way BOTH are amazing!
I think that this song reminds me of my daddy because he passed away a couple of weeks ago and it is like my dad is singing it to me it makes me very sad that he is gone but it also makes happy that I know that he is in a better place.😇😭😥😓 I miss him so much and that is why I love this song because it reminds me of him.
Emma Brennan I hope you are doing ok. I lost my Dad too. It was a long time ago but for some reason seeing your comment and this song, it brought it all back to me. 😢💔. 💕💕💕
I love how Birdy made a cover of Bon Iver's 'Skinny Love'. It has assured me Justin and his group are un-matched let alone unbeatable and will continue to be for a long time. Birdy can smd and do covers while Justin does something worth meaning in this world.
I don't know what cover you were listening to but the one I heard was amazing. I know that this is the original and I actually like it too. This song helped Birdy break out into the music industry which is such a good thing because she has so much talent, unlike all the crap you see these days with auto tune and music that depends on heavy beats. It's rare to see pure talent break out these days and you should be happy that this song helped some REAL talent break out.
When I was going through a break up, I'd understand every line and every metaphor. Now that time has passed, I've forgotten some feelings and a few lines are fuzzy again. I'm not complaining tho. Fun fact: that love lasted for 11 months then I gave up. I used to really regret it didn't last the year, we were so close
I only find out today, by reading some comments on a birdy performance. Birdy just had the voice, an incredibly breathtaking singing style and the piano and she blew the song and herself out of the stadium. In fact Birdy made it one of the greatest songs and performances to exist in my book.
Please let Chuck and Sarah be together in the end. I hope they make it. I just watched the scene where this song appears... and I´m emotionally involved in these character´s lives.
Is anyone else pissed that Birdy became more famous with this song than Bon Iver and he was the one that orignally sung and wrote it? I know I am, I get more emotional over Bon Iver's version because you hear the pain in his voice and just imagine him going through this chapter in his life and plus it related to most relationships.
To the people arguing about Birdy's cover: I heard that first and thought it was gorgeous and went searching for the original, and am now a huge fan of Bon Iver. Covers are a good thing, they help great music reach new audiences.
Me too
Birdy sucks period. I cant take it when some kid who has a monotone nasally voice with no emotion to sing a song that they don't know the meaning of the lyrics. Bon Iver fucking locked himself a way for months in a cabin when life was getting him down and wrote this master peace and him singing it you can tell by his voice how much emotion there is. Because these are his feelings and thoughts and no one can beat this no cover can.
@@invidia44 are you trolling...lol
Birdy is an incredibly emotional singer and not nasal either
While I do believe birdy is a phenomenal singer, it is not right she gives no credit to bon Iver in her title misleading people into thinking that it is her song when in fact it's actually a cover of a legendary artist.
That's a good point ☝🏽
this is this kind of song that either makes you feel like the happiest human being on earth, or like there is absolutely no meaning behind life.
Yes, so it fits to different life conditions :-)
I remember hearing this song with my Natalie
It made her want to cry
She always said she wasn't crying
But I could see it in her eyes
I miss her everyday
2 years gone in September
God rest her beautiful soul
Why exactly would this song make you feel happy? It's pretty sad and emotional
Special Love man, drink it in my friend
Both, definitely both right now.
Anybody here in 2023? This song will always have a piece of my heart.
Same here.
It can’t be only me who only finds out after 10 years that this song is the original (and not Birdy’s).
Yupp just found out too, the original hits different😪
Nope, you’re not the only one..🙄
I knew Birdys wasnt the original but didnt know it was this guy..
Bro for 10 years I thought Ed sheeran wrote this song :/
Whaaat?? Are you serious?

I heard Birdys version first on pandora, fell in love, found the original, and fell in love all over again. This song... It is beauty. True musicianship.
not gonna lie... its a crime that Birdy's cover has 100m+ views and the original has a total of ~15m views
40m**
it is a crime that the original has so few views, agreed. I don't think it is a crime that birdy's has so many, because it is pretty good.
never forget that birdy was the person who popularized this song.

arguably one of the best songs ever written.

Last night... I saw Bon Iver live in Switzerland!!! Tears in my eyes he's so wonderfull :')
All feelings you can possibly have in a relationship condensed into one song completely without varnish or romantic exaggeration. Absolutely perfect!
@@zogwort1522 Haha! You may be right. But if you DO find a way to make it work it definitely is worth all the pain and mistakes suffered to get there. The sad relations are also better suited for dramatic music 😄
I must have heard this when I was younger because it has resurfaced some kind of forgotten nostalgia that I can’t pin point and it’s freaking me out
Chuck? (TV show)
It was in a ikea ad
Exactly the same happened to me
Perhaps you knew it from the Birdy version?
I never thought I'd see a video that captured how I think, experience, and view the world as well as this one does. Bravo Bradford.
That for Emma album is immaculate, I don't understand alot of the lyrics but the melodies are a universal language, unreal xo
the lyrics are beautiful on that album
Bon Iver should be getting more recognition, man this world is messed up
Birdy's cover of this is hauntingly beautiful. But the original version is just hands down better in so many ways.
you are right
yes
A Birdy killer, if ever there was one . ;)
Hersheyyy I totally agree. The original has a feel and his voice is so much better sounding with this song. I think birdy sounds good but her version is too light and doesn't have as much emotion as bon ivers version IMO.

Seriously Bon Iver... they are amazing
Still as powerful and emotional now in 2024 as ever,
A true classic and a masterpiece in my eyes
Having known the original first and also appreciating Birdy's version, I can only imagine how great it must be to discover this is the original!
Wow I haven’t heard this song in like 10 years. Still such an amazing song ❤️
Literally every version of this song is amazing because it's just that good; how could they not be amazing?

I've discovered Bon Iver and Ben Howard today! i feel fucking lucky been listening to their music for the past 5 hours. absolutely beautiful and speaks to my soul.

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
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Dude

There are some songs that the whole entire world should hear. This is one of them.
Both versions of this song are beautiful. Who cares which is "better"?
no
Only poor people who cannot love several things at the same time
None is better than the other, i personlally prefer the guitar over a piano on this song, and that is just my prefference, someone else might like a piano over a guitar. Listen to what you feel like, and don't make others choose for you.
Couldn't agree more. C'mon guys let's give a hand to this pal and rise this commet to the top.
First on is shite lol. Young girls shouldn’t cover a song with so much pain pretending it’s a cool poppy song. It’s a shame.
Bon Iver - Skinny Love
James Vincent McMorrow - We Don't Eat
Jacko Hooper - Too Far To Sea
Thank goodness for artists like these, real music, real people
Probably the best way that it could be said - both are perfectly beautiful in and on their own :)
It's like comparing different renditions of church pieces being played on different instruments. All are wonderful :)
Anyone ells who thinks Bon Iver’s first album should have way more listens? It’s incredible simple and beautiful.
This is such a sad/ beautiful song
100% the best. Birdy is good but this is the original and really is so so so much better! Way ahead of its time.
everytime I hear this song i feel like being in love or losing the love of my life . there are so many emotions in his voice that i can´t classify the feelings i have. it makes me cry but in a good way
This song is perfection. I love Bon Iver.
This is REAL emotion here. Birdy was just doing a cover. I think people like her version more because one; her voice is soft and haunting and two; her version is depressing with the piano and everything else. This song reminds me of Pumped Up Kicks by The Fosters. It's a song with sad, real emotion but the happy upbeat track is an attempt to hide it.

when two people love each other but are too shy to admit it but they still show it...that's skinny LOVE..
No it's not lol
Hope you grown up enough to understand the meaning of "Skinny Love" now
Man, I love the simplicity of his videos.
I love how Birdy made a cover of Bon Iver's 'Skinny Love'. It has assured me Justin and his group are un-matched let alone unbeatable and will continue to be for a long time.
Birdy can smd and do covers while Justin does something worth meaning in this world.
This just puts a smile on my face, no idea why. Just does.

His voice is so incredible. Everytime I hear it I go into some trance. Just perfection.
You look like Alison dilaurentis from pretty little liars
This song is so full of pain broken heart, I cry listening this...
I only find out today, by reading some comments on a birdy performance. Birdy just had the voice, an incredibly breathtaking singing style and the piano and she blew the song and herself out of the stadium. In fact Birdy made it one of the greatest songs and performances to exist in my book.
This has had me holding back tears
💕
This version, THE version is so much better than the others ! Bon Iver rocks !
beautifull song, love it
Absolute love. The other versions are great but this ONE is just Bliss
A piece of me lost forever...
Simply the best out of all the versions or covers
Please let Chuck and Sarah be together in the end. I hope they make it.
I just watched the scene where this song appears... and I´m emotionally involved in these character´s lives.
This song just makes me feel alive ❤
Who thinks the same?
OLD BUT TOTALLY GOLD.
OMG. BEST. THING. EVER. I only dream of that!!!
I know him...I'm best friends with his niece...I had a lake day with the band! They are all super nice and amazing! And justin is supple sweet!
30th October 2022.. I have to come back once in a while just to hear this perfection... ❤️ hope everyone stays blessed 🙌
Is anyone else pissed that Birdy became more famous with this song than Bon Iver and he was the one that orignally sung and wrote it?
I know I am, I get more emotional over Bon Iver's version because you hear the pain in his voice and just imagine him going through this chapter in his life and plus it related to most relationships.
BON IVER till the end! Nothing compares to the original maker and song writer PERIOD:)
2018 and still a wonderful song !!!
It's deep and trust. For many people so far to understand. A brilliant song
