This blows me away every time I listen to it. Also, if you close your eyes and listen to it, his sort of breathy falsetto makes it sound a bit like it's Winnie the Pooh singing.
absolutely incredible. you can tell with each of his live vids that he closes his eyes and goes to an other-worldly place. it seems like he forgets everything else and just gives us something completely personal and unique. gotta love bon iver. he needs to stop by appleton sometime and give us a performance
I'd put Joni Mitchell's cover of her own song, Both Sides Now, as a contender. Recorded after her voice dropped, in 2000 with orchestra and slower mood.
@younglionsx the guitar he uses he found online, it was a sears catalog guitar sold by a elderly women, it was her husbands. Justin found that something with a history like that made a much more beautiful sound.
Love this as I do with everything Justin Vernon does or touches. Idk why but the way he looks here makes me think of the mcpoyle siblings from its always sunny haha.
Made a cover of this song two days ago and I hadn't listened to this version since then, and I thought like, "yeah, it actually sounds pretty good, maybe I'll perform it on the last music show before I graduate". But once again have Sir Vernon made me feel like absolute crap at singing and playing the guitar... P.S. Still love you man.
@itsamonster okay thank you! i was a little confused as to what he was playing. and the hools holland version is amazing! just so many memories are brought by that one performance.
That obnoxious sound at the end kills me. There's such a contrast between his controlled richness and the loud 'day-time-radio personalties. But he cut right through it, her look at 2:33 says it all.
@Kornwolf91 he's not using that sear's guitar here though... I think he just used that one for the for emma album, you don't see him performing with it very often. On the skinny love video on Jools Holland I'm pretty sure that's the guitar you're talking about.
the only problem i noticed is that this song is supposed to be a sad song (to me) but he has a bit of an upbeat tone in his voice. Feists version is great and this is good too.
this is good, but compare it with the Like A Version he did a few days ago and its ridiculous to see how far someone can come in the space of 2 and a half years.
IMO, does not even come close to feist version. Evidence that not all songs can be covered by an acoustic guitar alone. However, it might just be his voice for me.
This blows me away every time I listen to it. Also, if you close your eyes and listen to it, his sort of breathy falsetto makes it sound a bit like it's Winnie the Pooh singing.
Oh my god, I can never listen to him in the same way...
I wish I hadn’t read this before I listened to it lmao
What the hell. You ruined this for me lmao
"First record I heard when I came out of the woods"
Ahah I like him
Still like him (even more)
@@VoOrT3xX I feel ya
it's very safe to say i'm undoubtedly in love with this man
absolutely incredible. you can tell with each of his live vids that he closes his eyes and goes to an other-worldly place. it seems like he forgets everything else and just gives us something completely personal and unique. gotta love bon iver. he needs to stop by appleton sometime and give us a performance
I wish we had a radio station here that played this type of stuff. I would actually listen to the radio.
Stream WXPN from Philly
I feel like i will never be able to unheard this & Im so glad with it.
I’m about to see Bon Iver with Feist opening and I’m prepping SO excited
this is heaven. one of my favourite songs being covered by one of my favourite artists :) simply beautiful
I love watching Bon Iver videos. He looks like he should be fixing my computer and then he starts singing and it's like damn.
Songs like this makes me miss her..
better now?
It's either he's better or he sent himself to the better.
So breathtakingly beautiful.
It's 2020 and this is still the greatest cover of any song ever.
I'd put Joni Mitchell's cover of her own song, Both Sides Now, as a contender. Recorded after her voice dropped, in 2000 with orchestra and slower mood.
@@johnb698 I agree: I heard it on a transatlantic flight over cheap earphones and I cried like a baby. And I'm not at all into Joni Mitchell.
Love the Badgers shirt❤!
The Reminder is an amazing album for sure and Justin does it justice.
never realized how soulful feist's songs can be
could just listen to him all day.
im in love
Beautiful.
Wow. One of the few men alive that can efffectively pull off singing falsetto. So good!
@younglionsx the guitar he uses he found online, it was a sears catalog guitar sold by a elderly women, it was her husbands. Justin found that something with a history like that made a much more beautiful sound.
feist and bon iver... perfect
This is so crazy beautiful❤️
Ahhh one of my favourite songs covered by one of my favourite artists, good stuff.
such a haunting but beautiful song
.beautiful.
amazing... absolutely amazing.. what an intimate video.
Love this as I do with everything Justin Vernon does or touches. Idk why but the way he looks here makes me think of the mcpoyle siblings from its always sunny haha.
Gotta admit this is beautifully done 🌼💕
Made a cover of this song two days ago and I hadn't listened to this version since then, and I thought like, "yeah, it actually sounds pretty good, maybe I'll perform it on the last music show before I graduate".

wow.. just wow!
god that triple j outro gave me a fucking aneurism
@itsamonster okay thank you! i was a little confused as to what he was playing. and the hools holland version is amazing! just so many memories are brought by that one performance.
They should tour together, I might die.
This is a good summer song.
This man is a god.
incredible.
he is awesome, not to mention he is repping our state with a badgers shirt!
This video has more views than the Feist's version which is definitely justified if you ask me. Soooooo goood!!
hypnotic
i totally agree bro!!
God this man is awesome
Wow Australian radio seems so much better than ours. They're funny and they have Bon Iver.....it's settled i'm moving to Australia
wisconsin represent!!
i'm the exact same! both such wordsmiths, but justin has the ability to make me cry so he wins it for me (:
Good song to cover
his hair is sooo wild.. cute!
Sounds really good..!!
Unbelievable
Shut the front door! He is SO incredible.
thanks man!
Jesus Christ, I never noticed that but damn, it really, really does!

i am in love with bon iver. pls marry me.
Came outta the woods... haha

This one's for lil sticky Victoria! Demesne Street Park Xx

LOL'ed at the annotation at 1:50
on wisconsin
@ablairify HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"who can be sure of anything through
the distance that keeps your from knowing the truth?"
should have left that part in
God, imma sucker for that beard.
its the best!
@Kornwolf91 he's not using that sear's guitar here though... I think he just used that one for the for emma album, you don't see him performing with it very often. On the skinny love video on Jools Holland I'm pretty sure that's the guitar you're talking about.
4 people just watched the first minute thinking it was just an interview...
Way to support Bucky!!!
C, F, C, G (chorus)= C AM F
the only problem i noticed is that this song is supposed to be a sad song (to me) but he has a bit of an upbeat tone in his voice. Feists version is great and this is good too.
straight Gilmore Girls conversation at the beggining.
Go Bucky!
fucking voice you've got, meight!
Go Badgers!
This sounds a whole lot like Let It Be Me by Ray Lamontagne
He seems like the chillest guy EVER. Justin.. marry me. Please. PLEASE. :p
so true! LOL!
@bonbon56
Then i also have that guitar, damn so glad :p
I'm stuck on this and i don't know why
I'm tossing up between Dallas Green and Justin Vernon.
Bonnie bear
@choward1211 that 70's show?
haha, that's also very safe
this is good, but compare it with the Like A Version he did a few days ago and its ridiculous to see how far someone can come in the space of 2 and a half years.
@MrJohnPaulJames Forgot...? Maybe not the right word. ;)
@bonbon56 is it a seagull s6?
someone who knows what chords he's taking ?
killer shorts
Does anyone know which chords he used?
One of the few men who can sing in a falsetto and still seem masculine
Parker Sanchez why does that matter
I don't know, Mate. The cheese is pretty good.
one of HIS songs?
no
Its a cover
@bigsmith513 now try to find a girl that didn't...
He forgot the whole last verse! Am I the only on that noticed? "The New Taste" covers this song really good.
aint that the truth
☹️
0:47 was it really that funny? lol
Robert Calkins i think so
ahahahhahaahahhh
IMO, does not even come close to feist version. Evidence that not all songs can be covered by an acoustic guitar alone. However, it might just be his voice for me.
Dude.....I love Justin but.....It totally sounds like Cleveland Jr. singing this song......close your eyes and tell me I'm lying.
hosts are cringe worthy.
hahaha dude you just ruined the video for me
