    I was at this show. A friend had tickets and, at the last minute, couldn’t go. He gave the tickets to me and I knew nothing about Bon Iver. I walked in and had my life changed immediately.

      Their first two albums were epic then they went downhill a bit. Not surprising you can't maintain an epic high level indefinitely.

      @@lasse.853 I'll have to relisten! I'm sure I've heard it and I definitely preferred bon iver album (album titled bon iver.. this is getting confusing 🤣)
      I do remember liking many parts though! It was one of those things that I could find something I really liked in every song.. but sometimes there were parts I didn't like as well! Whereas bon iver album I like almost everything.
      Anyway I do need to relisten to that one! Thanks for reminding me 😎

    *LYRICS*
    For the love, I'd fallen on
    In the swampy August dawn
    What a mischief you would bring, young darling
    When the onus is not all your own
    When you're up for it before you've grown
    Whoa-whoa
    From the faun forever gone
    In the towers of your honeycomb
    I'd have tore your hair out just to climb back, darling
    When you're filling out your only form
    Can you tell that it's just ceremon'?
    Now you've added up to what you're from
    Whoa-whoa
    Build your tether rain-out from your fragments
    Break the sailor's table on your sacrum
    Fuck the fiercest fables, I'm with Hagen
    For the love, comes the burning young
    From the liver, sweating through your tongue
    Well, you're standing on my sternum
    Don't you climb down, darling
    Oh, the sermons are the first to rest
    Smoke on Sundays when you're drunk and dressed
    Out the hollows where the swallow nests
    Whoa-whoa

    Along with Justin Vernon being in my top ten Writers/Artist of all Time!!!!!!
    I know artist as far as music are considered writers...but a lot of people at the top that are looked at as artist don't write...sad people assume they do and appreciate them more than this timeless music!!! I'll never stop listening to Bon Iver!!!

      matt joel If I said "Hey what's the instrument that guy with the red shirt is playing?" Would it be offensive? No. Describing someone with the atribute that sets him appart is not discrimination (racism). I really hate the over politicly correct society we live in now..
