Birdy's version of Skinny Love single-handedly helped me through my depression back in 2012. I was uprooted from my home and away from my friends who I call family, had suicidal thoughts but I listened to this song every night until eventually I got better, I see better. Until this day, January 2024 I still listen and remember not the pain but hope. Thank you Birdy.
It's 2020 and if you're reading this, that means you're still here. I'm so proud of each and everyone one of you. You're so strong. Keep fighting. I'll be back in 2021 to make sure none of yall died on me. I believe in you
It's been eight years already. I'm 17 and I've been listening to this song for years. I feel some kind of attachment to it. It helps me resist - against dark thoughts, suicide attempts, distress, loneliness... I'm feeling much better now but still... Solitude characterizes me. Love escaped years ago. Thanks so much for this wonderful cover, Birdy. No one might read this tiny comment but I needed to write my heart out. This song means so much to me.
Skinny Love, by definition, is a relationship between two friends who both love each other deeply but never have the courage to admit their true feelings - leaving the other stranded when they move on from those emotions in attempt to save themselves from heartbreak.
Tbh Birdie is just chipping about the song but bon iver lived through this song but vocally her performance is good but that rawness and originality is impossible to capture by anyone other than bon iver
When I was 12, I heard the line, "And I told you to be patient; And I told you to be fine; And I told you to be balanced; And I told you to be kind," because they were words written on a staircase. I never bothered to look them up. But they kind of resonated with me and I held onto them for years- as encouragement in a way. It wasn't till now that I've heard this song and when I heard her sing those words, I cried because I had forgotten them but never in my worst moments.
I don't mean to just shit on your parade, but try listen to bon Iver skinny love. He wrote it originally and maybe you will feel something different :)
Then you should definitely listen to Bon Iver, this is his song and he has a lot more as beautiful as this one. His version, the original version, is better than this also
This song got me through so much as a kid 🥺 I used to be so tired/depressed …but fast forward …I’ll be 22 in a week and I’m in nursing school with 2 beautiful kids 💗stay strong 💪🏾
I HOPE YOU GET EVERYTHING YOUR HEART DESIRES SO YOU GAIN EXPERIENCE, KNOW MORE WISDOM AND GROW YOUR CAPACITY TO LOVE BECAUSE YOU DESEVE IT, GODSPEED FELLOW HUMAN
Tonight I feel so lonely, I just feel empty, like my life has no purpose or direction. I always wait for something to happen, something great that will save me from feeling like this, a love that will change my existence. It's hard to feel like nobody will ever love you like you wish or deserve. I turn around and see happy couple and people everywhere and then there's me. I fall for everyone and eventually hurt myself. This goes out to those who are going through the same thing, you're not alone. I'm here sitting on my bed and it's almost 2 am, and I think about so many things, my mind is so loud I can't sleep. I just wanted to vent it all out, sorry. I hope someday I will finally find peace of mind.
Kar011 it will get better, i know what you are going through way too good, i was really close to committing suicide a few years ago, but i resisted and everything became better, it really will get better eventually
Karina Cruz.. Time is the only 'healer' imho. Although the loss of friends and family are never something you truly get over. It just becomes a part of you. As will this song for you. For what it's worth, I believe that it's a really beautiful song to be able to remember someone by.
I remember the first time I listened to this song while watching The Vampire Dairies years ago, i can confidently say i still cry to this song years later. A true masterpiece
Moi aussi je viens de réentendre cette chanson dans le dernier épisode de la saison 2 de vampire diaries Ça m’a rendu nostalgique de ma vie quand j’avais l’âge de cette chanson
jan 7 2021 and still need this song to get me through. been dealing with body issues and anorexia since 8th grade, i cut my arms from 8th grade to 11th, been 4 years clean from cutting and now have a 7 month old beautiful daughter and i am 13 weeks pregnant with my second. yes it gets better
thats truely amazing as of yesterday i was a month clean of cutting i have been cutting since i was 9 because of constant pain and i have had suicidal thoughts since ten
Jonas is right, she did really really well but its not her song...there are MILLIONS of great singers out there but doesn't mean they can write good songs
I remember listening to this song everyday in middle school while i was struggling so hard. Years later it popped in my head again, it’s like i almost forgot about it. Even though it brings me back to some of the worst times of my life, I still cherish it.
+jenny Carberry music is like love...i know there r many other things makes us feel...but damn MUSIC and LOVE....they kill and let u stay alive at the same time...sadness and happiness....yin and yang...the balance...it makes our lives worth living....
This song bring me back to when I was playing it on the piano hiding my scars on my wrists and tears rolling down my face wondering when the last day would be? Wondering who will love you when you’re gone? I’m so proud of myself for continuing on with my life. I now have a baby on the way and I wouldn’t change a thing.
Congratulations star, just know that you are an eternal shining bright light in this universe, and your light is now multiplied with your child. ALLWAYS REMEMBER, THE UNIVERSE LOVES YOU, OR YOU WOULD NOT BE HERE.
12 years passed and this song is still as beautiful as the first time i’ve ever heard this. The emotions and passion in the way you sing this Birdy is such an incredible feeling. Thanks to my life coach @Lisa Haisha, for recommending that we dive deep into music that holds a special place in our hearts, and this song is one of them. Thank you!

Birdy’s cover has that sound and vibe that is like you and your ex have been broken up for a long period of time. You’ve both had time to grow and move on from each other. You’re finding forgiveness within yourself and the relationship. But Bon Iver’s original...man, this is what it sounds like immediately after the breakup. You’re angry. You’re sad. You’re accusing. You wanted it to work, but it ended ugly. You want to know what, why, and how. You’re trying to forget them, but the memories won’t leave. The original has this emotion that no cover can ever capture. It has those true voice cracks .The original is truly what Justin Vernon was feeling in the time of a breakup. It’s a sound when songwriting that nobody can replicate unless they’re truly feeling it in that exact moment. That’s what makes this version truly beautiful.
I get what you are saying for sure, and Bon Iver's is definitely raw with emotion, but I love this version better, it's more bittersweet. Maybe you're right, it depends on what part of your life you are in, a raw fresh break up or looking back on one. Great song either way though!
Lyrics Skinny Love : 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" 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 britches 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
This is nothing amazing actually. It's not phenomenal for a 15 year old to do. I've seen a bunch of other teenagers, probably under 15 years old, or around 15 years old, do WAY better. It doesn't sound like she sings that great, and the piano playing wasn't aything complicated either. I do like her rendition of this song though.
This song made me realize my worth, I just hope it does for my best friend. I know all of you guys don't really care but after many self debates, i have decided that I can beat this and I will make sure I have a bright future. I really hope no one goes through this like I did. Who knows, what if you grow up to change the world someday. Don't give up on your dream, let alone your life!!!
wow. I wish I've read this 2 years ago. I let a toxic relationship destroy every part of me. Still suffering for the consequences but it was worth standing up to.
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?

Who's listening to this beautiful song in December 2020? Edit: This song will never get old 2021 here😁💜💜 2022 Let me know if you're here 👇😍 2024- I'm here again 🥺
Birdy is full of talent. My ex-girlfriend recommended this song to me, when the earphones were in both of our ears. Like what this song says, our love is also skinny but I really love her. Even now. I know she has a broken family, All I want is her happiness. I never made a comment in UA-cam, this is the first one.
Вы идиоты дуйтесь на меня за то что я сказал типа что времени нет а на самом деле я сказал что его нет для Отца а не для нас вот и всё прицепились воще бабы базарные а не Творцы пластилин лепить вам нужно
It's so sad that the original isn't as popular, the artist went through a lot of pain to bring about this song and it shows in his voice but it is fitting for his version to be forgotten, it is a fitting story for what the song is telling.
Pen Pink exactly. She should have written Bon Iver cover in the title, not the description. As much as she's a good singer and all, it's not fair that everyone seems to think she wrote it when she didn't.
First version i heard was Bon Iver and it’s so freaking magnificent, when i found this Birds version it just got me mad that Iver didnt get the recognition he deserves
@Cowlan I feel you. This is my first time hearing this song. Oh wait I remember this from the vampire diaries! Haha I remembered the chorus! It sure is gonna get stuck with me
@CowlanGlad you are and hope you stay in that better place then two years ago . And , agree that this is such a powerful song and trigger emotions for many people for so many reasons we can or can't explain.. So for everyone hurting sending hope and love. And... although music can hurt thank God it also heals . .I think @Birdy is amazing and she understands human conditions.. it's in her voice and she so young. I think she must be old soul. Sending my best to all from Boston .💞
after 12 years, a college graduation, a marriage, and three kids, how am I just now giving this song the thumbs up it deserves? Love forever, Birdy ✌🏻.
Christina Grimmie didn't deserve to be shot. None of the people who died this year have deserved to, and really made a difference. She was so talented and beautiful, sad. Here's what Adam said and is very true: "Christina was a natural, gifted talent that comes along so rarely," wrote singer Adam Levine, who was Grimmie's mentor on "The Voice." ''She was taken from us too soon."
Tears are coming down my face like a waterfall. Her voice... so gentle, so angelic. Even if this isn't better then the original singer, I can feel the energy in her voice. So damn the opinions, and just listen to the music.
Birdy always seems to make me cry even when I’m at my happiest. This song in particular will forever be my safe haven, and no not just because of TVDs.
Nothing Compares 2 U is also a cover. That song, like this one destroys me. Imagine thinking a song has to be sung by the original writer to evoke deep emotion. 🤦♀️
2023 , last night I saw Birdy live in Germany and it was like I did my inner child a favour and gone to her concert ❤️❤️ Her voice is so strong and beautiful !!
44 to 54, this is one of those artists that do a cover extreme justice. One question though, has your interpretation of the lyrics changed over the years?
one of the most hauntingly beautiful songs ever written,can stir up every human emotion,depending on where your mind wanders while listening,which is a very rare thing indeed
Times like this, 5am when I am thinking about my sister (she passed on in a tragic road accident on 11th May 2024) I go to songs she loved. And sometimes, it's like she's passing me little messages of hope from her grave. Like this one. I told you to be patient, I told you to be kind. I think she knows how hard I'm struggling to be kind to myself and how tired I am of being patient with life. I want to think its her little messages to hold on for just the next second....
This version is beautiful, but completely incomparable to Bon Iver's. Birdy sings it from a teenager's point of view, where everything is so black and white. Bon Iver sings it from an experienced point of view, where nothing is black and white. He wrote the song to be a mix of emotions, and sings it as so. Not only is he sad, but angry, and acknowledges the joy he has felt in the relationship as well. Birdy has given the song more of a pained feeling, which is perfect for young heart break. However, Bon Iver sings the song with passion and expresses truth that relationships are more complicated than purely depression after heartbreak. It pains me when people say this version is so much better because I feel as though they are missing the point of what the song is written about. It is not about sadness, it is about love.
I interpreted the song as an infusion of both, sadness and love. I think Birdy approached the song in a inconsolable way (probably the emotions from a past relationship) and Bon had a more upbeat tempo which hints towards the topic of love, rather than sadness. However, "Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer" hints at depression, and in my opinion, the 'crushed veneer' is her skin and the blood is hers. I think she's referring to self harm, and also 'skinny love' might be her? The whole "I told you" part hints at this, well to me anyway. But, that's the incredible thing about music, everyone creates their own interpretations.
Songs are suppose to be a way of expression, so it does not matter if she sings the song different then Bon Iver, black and white is what it means to her, and I am going to say I love this version more.
***** I think the fact that you're not at all reading into it is much, much worse than hardly reading into it and judging the song difference purely by voices. This is, after all, Bon Ivers song. I have known and loved it for much longer than I have even known that this version was a thing so yes, I am biased. But what I think important is what you get out of the song, I hope you look into it enough to get something from it or that when you mean voices, you mean emotions. But music does different things for different people and I guess it's just good that people are enjoying both versions.
@@Chuckwagon1515 not anymore. It is a band now and the new album is VERY collaborative. He's the "director". However, back when he wrote this song he WAS the band.
Come on skinny love just last the year Pour a little salt we were never here My my my, my my my, my my my my-my...

Right in the moment this order's tall And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And 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?

7 years ago I listened to this not knowing what heartbreak is and what true pain really felt like.. ..Oh how I wish I could go back in time. Now i just lay here and wonder if the pain ever really stops, and if it's even worth trying anymore.
I don't know who you sre or whst happend to you ..but.. if you wanna talk and have no one to talk to or don't want to for any reason please talk to me ...if you let me I'll be there ... Just...don't give up even if it hurts ... life is pain ..pain is life .. without pain how would you even know if you are truly alive... I'm serious....
You're not alone trying to survive after a worst relationship. I've been in that experience that sometimes I want to kill myself to end up the pain and suffering. Just be strong, keep on praying for healing and peace of mind. Keep yourself busy. You know i didn't share or talk to anyone about what i felt. I isolate myself and silence, i keep crying every now and then, but i hope and pray I'll be okay one day. Praying for your healing also.
This song reminds me of my parents' divorce, the bullying in middle school, the mean people to me and other sad things... But I still love this song. I performed that on the piano and I felt the message of the song while I was playing it. It's just a throwback. I truly love it!
Hi Birdy! I don't think you will be able to read this, but anyway. Five years ago I stumbled upon your song and instantly fell in love with it. Hearing it first was like walking in a rainy forest. From then I listened to it for almost every day. I would sometimes shed some because it is so beautiful. Your song had inspired me to do things. Not everything went well, but I still play the piano and Skinny Love is my all time favourite. You also inspired me to learn English so that I could fully understand the lyrics. It took some time to understand what pouring salt meant, but now that I know it made the song sound even more beautiful. I know it's not what you wrote but anyway. Back in 2011 no friends of mine knew Birdy ;( but it's amazing where you stand now! You truly deserve it. Maybe little more. I'm really happy to see you getting bigger and bigger yet better and better. Please keep doing what you love, you really are talented, and be happy. Love from Jin.
Jin Lee I was reading this comment while the song was playing, You have a great talent for writing, You also wrote because you were inspired like most of us are, You deserve it 👍
Me too, for this track, People, and Wings. Ive not heard her other songs yet, but will probably end up listening to them back to back for hours and hours, her music lights up the pleasure centres in my brain very time. Not many artists can do that.
introducing carys introducing carys introducing carys my favourite line is "I told you to be patient and I told you to be fine and I told you to be kind"
Listening to this since 10 years.. when i was 16, my life since years just heavy and traumatic.... ❤ still working on my trauma but already more free!! Im proud of all of you❤❤❤❤❤
Don't get me wrong, Birdy's version is great but it makes me sad that not many people who have listened to Birdy's version haven't recognised the beauty and the emotion of the Original by Bon Iver. I think about this alot, alot...
bon ivor is alot more famous than she is, he won a grammy worked with kanye west and all the indie blogs labeled everything he did as classic people pretty much forgot about her after this song/ album
I listen to this when I am down and really need some soulful healing ❤️❤️. Your story is truly amazing and I'm so thankful that you have been given the chance to share your amazing and beautiful talent with us❤️❤️

Gosh, she was 15 when she did this masterpiece ?!?
Huy Lê how could she be 17 in 2011, if in 2019 she is 23?! Guys math is not an opinion, she was 14 when she recorded it and 15 when she released it
birdy is the most underrated singer to ever exist in my opinion.
Underrated with 170 million views.. You don't know what underrated means do you.
Esteban Jaramillo it deserves much more views than 170 million.
For covering a song and not even mention?
E620SE she did mention it in the description. and she sang it a lot better to be honest so yes, it does deserve more than 170 million views.

I don't mean to just shit on your parade, but try listen to bon Iver skinny love. He wrote it originally and maybe you will feel something different :)
Then you should definitely listen to Bon Iver, this is his song and he has a lot more as beautiful as this one. His version, the original version, is better than this also
Laura Rodriguez your story made me cry😭. I don't know it is just beautiful💕
Laura Rodriguez If you listen to Bon Iver who actually wrote song, you will feel so many emotions. Its so raw, no cover will ever beat his song.
I get goosebumps and I always play the song in my head when I'm sad😊❤
This song got me through so much as a kid 🥺 I used to be so tired/depressed …but fast forward …I’ll be 22 in a week and I’m in nursing school with 2 beautiful kids 💗stay strong 💪🏾
If you havent heard IM PROUD OF YOU
Blessings to you. God's got this....
Chin up
I HOPE YOU GET EVERYTHING YOUR HEART DESIRES SO YOU GAIN EXPERIENCE, KNOW MORE WISDOM AND GROW YOUR CAPACITY TO LOVE BECAUSE YOU DESEVE IT, GODSPEED FELLOW HUMAN
Stay strong
10 years, guys. 10 years
What?? HOW???
I can't believe it.
The song is 13 years old
I told you to be patient, and I told you be fine
i just cannot believe
Still getting goosebumps when listening to this song.
I REMEMBER WHEN U UPLOADED IT ❤️👍
Go and listen to the original! Bon Iver, It's thousand Times better!
AirwaveMusicTV i get goosebumbs from ur version #Dubstep4Life
So do i
It's the mix of the voice and the text 🔥
Tonight I feel so lonely, I just feel empty, like my life has no purpose or direction. I always wait for something to happen, something great that will save me from feeling like this, a love that will change my existence. It's hard to feel like nobody will ever love you like you wish or deserve. I turn around and see happy couple and people everywhere and then there's me. I fall for everyone and eventually hurt myself. This goes out to those who are going through the same thing, you're not alone. I'm here sitting on my bed and it's almost 2 am, and I think about so many things, my mind is so loud I can't sleep. I just wanted to vent it all out, sorry.

Hi! You're not even remotely alone!! Just concentrate on enjoining yourself ❣
You're so strong! Thanks for sharing
Dear Skinny Love, you gave me Hope - 2024. Thank you!
I still can’t believe that she was 14 when she sang this....she’s incredible!
I'm 14 and i sound like a dying cow when i sing :(
Check the original on UA-cam. Bon Iver - Skinny Love (jools Holland)
It's not her song
@@nathan2friendly887 so?
@@bagel4672 she titled it the original, and stole millions of views from the credible song writer.
My best friend showed me this song 4 years ago and I always come back to hear this song every month ever since he passed away a year ago.
I'm so sorry for your loss honey :(
It is alright thank you for caring. I have to remember all the good memories though which is great :).I Have to think positive.
Karina Cruz.. Time is the only 'healer' imho.
Although the loss of friends and family are never something you truly get over.
It just becomes a part of you.
As will this song for you.
For what it's worth, I believe that it's a really beautiful song to be able to remember someone by.

14😳
Jonas is right, she did really really well but its not her song...there are MILLIONS of great singers out there but doesn't mean they can write good songs
Well, there's no piano on the Bon Iver album so I guess she composed the piano herself too..
@@lifeofstr7005 heard in a radio interview some other producer from Netherlands did the piano part
I remember listening to this song everyday in middle school while i was struggling so hard. Years later it popped in my head again, it’s like i almost forgot about it. Even though it brings me back to some of the worst times of my life, I still cherish it.
Exactly my thoughts, how did I forget this song completely when it was one of my favorites going through the hard times as a smaller me
Omg same here! Loved this song idk how the hell i forgot it. A lot of years has gone by

Wondering who will love you when you’re gone? I’m so proud of myself for continuing on with my life. I now have a baby on the way and I wouldn’t change a thing.
Congratulations star, just know that you are an eternal shining bright light in this universe, and your light is now multiplied with your child.

*Bon Iver- Skinny Love
we the kings: one of the most underrated bands ever
When I heard this play in it ends with us in theatres, it brought back so much memories, feelings and emotions ❤🩹
Birdy’s cover has that sound and vibe that is like you and your ex have been broken up for a long period of time. You’ve both had time to grow and move on from each other. You’re finding forgiveness within yourself and the relationship.
But Bon Iver’s original...man, this is what it sounds like immediately after the breakup. You’re angry. You’re sad. You’re accusing. You wanted it to work, but it ended ugly. You want to know what, why, and how. You’re trying to forget them, but the memories won’t leave.
The original has this emotion that no cover can ever capture. It has those true voice cracks .The original is truly what Justin Vernon was feeling in the time of a breakup. It’s a sound when songwriting that nobody can replicate unless they’re truly feeling it in that exact moment. That’s what makes this version truly beautiful.
I get what you are saying for sure, and Bon Iver's is definitely raw with emotion, but I love this version better, it's more bittersweet. Maybe you're right, it depends on what part of your life you are in, a raw fresh break up or looking back on one. Great song either way though!
i know for a fact you just stole this comment from the video of Bon iver's skinny love
Lyrics Skinny Love :
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"
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 britches
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
Much needed

Thank you
Mrs WasGehtSieDasAn?! No, he spelled it right
This track hits me hard , it’s a memory of a time in my life that will never leave me
This will always be one of my favourite songs.
Its a cover, original song is by bon iver, check it out if you haven't, he sings with alot more soul.
To think she was just 15 here. What a phenomenal talent.
This is nothing amazing actually. It's not phenomenal for a 15 year old to do. I've seen a bunch of other teenagers, probably under 15 years old, or around 15 years old, do WAY better. It doesn't sound like she sings that great, and the piano playing wasn't aything complicated either. I do like her rendition of this song though.

This song made me realize my worth, I just hope it does for my best friend. I know all of you guys don't really care but after many self debates, i have decided that I can beat this and I will make sure I have a bright future. I really hope no one goes through this like I did. Who knows, what if you grow up to change the world someday. Don't give up on your dream, let alone your life!!!
There is many people that care..x :)

2024 and still such an emotional beautiful song!
It's so sad that the original isn't as popular, the artist went through a lot of pain to bring about this song and it shows in his voice but it is fitting for his version to be forgotten, it is a fitting story for what the song is telling.
Pen Pink exactly. She should have written Bon Iver cover in the title, not the description. As much as she's a good singer and all, it's not fair that everyone seems to think she wrote it when she didn't.
I agree completely. I'm so tired of all these fan boys and fan girls going nuts for this song when they don't even know who wrote it.
First version i heard was Bon Iver and it’s so freaking magnificent, when i found this Birds version it just got me mad that Iver didnt get the recognition he deserves
i love the original 💕💕
Nothing can beat the rawness and Originality of Original version the song feels just so fresh and naked in bon Iver's version
This song still hits me like a truck. Destructive, selfless, and love
@Cowlan I feel you. This is my first time hearing this song.
Oh wait I remember this from the vampire diaries! Haha I remembered the chorus! It sure is gonna get stuck with me
It's beautiful Hey .Cheers me up her voice
@CowlanGlad you are and hope you stay in that better place then two years ago . And , agree that this is such a powerful song and trigger emotions for many people for so many reasons we can or can't explain.. So for everyone hurting sending hope and love. And... although music can hurt thank God it also heals . .I think @Birdy is amazing and she understands human conditions.. it's in her voice and she so young. I think she must be old soul. Sending my best to all from Boston .💞
@Cowlan yeah same
You say it :D I think same
Few singers can cause shivers down my arms as they start singing. ..
Birdy is a gift to my soul.
after 12 years, a college graduation, a marriage, and three kids, how am I just now giving this song the thumbs up it deserves? Love forever, Birdy ✌🏻.

I'm completely shocked, i loved her :(
Im so sorry.
I'm so sorry
what Birdy has died?
+Marketa Říhová no, Christina Grimmie died, not Birdy
Man... What a cold world.
R.I.P:Prince
R.I.P:Muhammed Ali
R.I.P:Christina Grimmie
Amen it's all so sad
amen 😢
Christina Grimmie didn't deserve to be shot. None of the people who died this year have deserved to, and really made a difference. She was so talented and beautiful, sad. Here's what Adam said and is very true: "Christina was a natural, gifted talent that comes along so rarely," wrote singer Adam Levine, who was Grimmie's mentor on "The Voice." ''She was taken from us too soon."
u forgot Geordie Howe
rip Geordie Howe.
It was basically the disgusting cruelness of this world that killed Christina Grimmie
12 years in my opinion one of the greatest songs every written 😢
It was written before then, this is a cover
Tears are coming down my face like a waterfall. Her voice... so gentle, so angelic. Even if this isn't better then the original singer, I can feel the energy in her voice. So damn the opinions, and just listen to the music.
: )
I feel ya... Her voice is so amazing.
Birdy always seems to make me cry even when I’m at my happiest. This song in particular will forever be my safe haven, and no not just because of TVDs.
Imagine crying to a cover
check out the original song then
Nothing Compares 2 U is also a cover. That song, like this one destroys me. Imagine thinking a song has to be sung by the original writer to evoke deep emotion. 🤦♀️
2023 , last night I saw Birdy live in Germany and it was like I did my inner child a favour and gone to her concert ❤️❤️ Her voice is so strong and beautiful !!
It Ends With Us brought me here. ❤
I was 13 when I first heard this. I’m 24 now n it still hits home 😩❤️

Me too 🥺🥺
I’m 22 :( I’m trying to be strong for Jesus but being a girl in this world is not easy
@@jenniferibarra7737 being a man is even worse
44 to 54, this is one of those artists that do a cover extreme justice. One question though, has your interpretation of the lyrics changed over the years?
one of the most hauntingly beautiful songs ever written,can stir up every human emotion,depending on where your mind wanders while listening,which is a very rare thing indeed
It surely is haunting and beautiful. I’ve actually just discovered it. I will never forget it❤
The original is better
She didn’t write it. It’s a Bon Iver song and his version is way better.
I couldn’t have said it better!! Very well put exactly
Right
I miss the days when UA-cam's comment section wasn't a calendar...
Me too
It's been like this since like 2011
Yeah. It's annoying.
Although i never loose the track of the date
Grivs I miss the days when people didn’t complain so much
Times like this, 5am when I am thinking about my sister (she passed on in a tragic road accident on 11th May 2024) I go to songs she loved. And sometimes, it's like she's passing me little messages of hope from her grave. Like this one. I told you to be patient, I told you to be kind. I think she knows how hard I'm struggling to be kind to myself and how tired I am of being patient with life. I want to think its her little messages to hold on for just the next second....
I hope you can continue to keep your head up. She’s with you even if she’s not here she’s in you ❤
This version is beautiful, but completely incomparable to Bon Iver's. Birdy sings it from a teenager's point of view, where everything is so black and white. Bon Iver sings it from an experienced point of view, where nothing is black and white. He wrote the song to be a mix of emotions, and sings it as so. Not only is he sad, but angry, and acknowledges the joy he has felt in the relationship as well. Birdy has given the song more of a pained feeling, which is perfect for young heart break. However, Bon Iver sings the song with passion and expresses truth that relationships are more complicated than purely depression after heartbreak. It pains me when people say this version is so much better because I feel as though they are missing the point of what the song is written about. It is not about sadness, it is about love.
thank you for these words
I interpreted the song as an infusion of both, sadness and love. I think Birdy approached the song in a inconsolable way (probably the emotions from a past relationship) and Bon had a more upbeat tempo which hints towards the topic of love, rather than sadness. However, "Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer" hints at depression, and in my opinion, the 'crushed veneer' is her skin and the blood is hers. I think she's referring to self harm, and also 'skinny love' might be her? The whole "I told you" part hints at this, well to me anyway. But, that's the incredible thing about music, everyone creates their own interpretations.
Songs are suppose to be a way of expression, so it does not matter if she sings the song different then Bon Iver, black and white is what it means to her, and I am going to say I love this version more.
***** I think the fact that you're not at all reading into it is much, much worse than hardly reading into it and judging the song difference purely by voices. This is, after all, Bon Ivers song. I have known and loved it for much longer than I have even known that this version was a thing so yes, I am biased. But what I think important is what you get out of the song, I hope you look into it enough to get something from it or that when you mean voices, you mean emotions. But music does different things for different people and I guess it's just good that people are enjoying both versions.
Guys just listen to the music and like it or dont
I know it's 2016/2017 but I still love this song so much 😘❤️❤️❤️

I feel you..
Josh Schmidt The original is 2009 so you could've been listening to it in 2009 but a boy version
7 years ago I listened to this not knowing what heartbreak is and what true pain really felt like..
..Oh how I wish I could go back in time. Now i just lay here and wonder if the pain ever really stops, and if it's even worth trying anymore.
I don't know who you sre or whst happend to you ..but.. if you wanna talk and have no one to talk to or don't want to for any reason please talk to me ...if you let me I'll be there ... Just...don't give up even if it hurts ... life is pain ..pain is life .. without pain how would you even know if you are truly alive... I'm serious....
You're not alone trying to survive after a worst relationship. I've been in that experience that sometimes I want to kill myself to end up the pain and suffering. Just be strong, keep on praying for healing and peace of mind. Keep yourself busy. You know i didn't share or talk to anyone about what i felt. I isolate myself and silence, i keep crying every now and then, but i hope and pray I'll be okay one day. Praying for your healing also.
It's been 12 years and now i found myself listening again to this song.. oh my god! How i miss your voice birdy. 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
This song reminds me of my parents' divorce, the bullying in middle school, the mean people to me and other sad things... But I still love this song. I performed that on the piano and I felt the message of the song while I was playing it. It's just a throwback. I truly love it!

First time listener…also sobbing.
@@Kat-pd9eh understandable 😔
You should check out the original. This is a beautiful cover, but lacking the emotion of the original
@@saycheesealex2726 there's a original?????
@@yuuzupiiii look up bon iver skinny love live performance. Come back and tell me how much you love it. It’ll break you
Years listening to this song and still hits hard. I just wish we could all find happiness. No more heartbreak for any of us.
That would be great😭😭😭
I really miss you dad... Rest in heaven
kittypills awwww😭
No one goes to heaven. We all are in the grave until Jesus returns then we are judged and bought back in the first or second resurrection.
kittypills I miss my mom and dad too...😢😨😩
The Only Way Is Yeshua very wrong. Go to church
God bless your soul
"Why don’t you let people see the good in you?" "Because when people see good they expect good and I don’t wanna live up to anyones expectations"
Well I admit I'm not perfect. But I can love, and tell you who's pulling me thru all this. And he is The Lord of Hosts.
i feel that 110% , i love TVD
Shut up
Dude wth it's a quote from the vampire diaries
DAMON!!!
Hi Birdy!
I don't think you will be able to read this, but anyway.
Five years ago I stumbled upon your song and instantly fell in love with it. Hearing it first was like walking in a rainy forest. From then I listened to it for almost every day. I would sometimes shed some because it is so beautiful.
Your song had inspired me to do things. Not everything went well, but I still play the piano and Skinny Love is my all time favourite.
You also inspired me to learn English so that I could fully understand the lyrics. It took some time to understand what pouring salt meant, but now that I know it made the song sound even more beautiful. I know it's not what you wrote but anyway.
Back in 2011 no friends of mine knew Birdy ;( but it's amazing where you stand now! You truly deserve it. Maybe little more. I'm really happy to see you getting bigger and bigger yet better and better.
Please keep doing what you love, you really are talented, and be happy.
Love from Jin.
Jin Lee it's not her song. she didn't write it, Bon Iver wrote it. it's just a cover
"I know it's not what you wrote but anyway" Yes.. I know it's Bon Iver's. But she sang so beautifully and I personally prefer this version.
Jin Lee This is heartbreakingly beautiful! It's so fantastic how one song can change everything ❤️ I hope all is well!
Jin Lee
I was reading this comment while the song was playing, You have a great talent for writing, You also wrote because you were inspired like most of us are, You deserve it 👍
its not her song homie it's a cover
Wow... Speechless every time. Her songs always bring me to tears in the best way possible.
not her song, just a cover
felt like crying, so here i am
ty
This ain't shit. Have you listened to 1916 by Motörhead?
Same
You’ll be fine love
such a beautiful cover of this song. I think I may have broke the replay button on this and the 1901 cover she did. Whoopsie!
broken*
+Angelina Freda same I love this song, it has so much meaning
It's a cover? Really? Oh, I thought it's originally her song... :/
Me too, for this track, People, and Wings. Ive not heard her other songs yet, but will probably end up listening to them back to back for hours and hours, her music lights up the pleasure centres in my brain very time. Not many artists can do that.
+Alan Cam
Bob Iver is who she's covering
This song had to be written by a tortured soul. It gave me goose bumps and then made me cry.
Think that's bad? Atop it being sad as hell it played at my late cousins funeral a couple months ago. *dragon noise* 😂
She didn't write it
its by bon iver
same :'(
It was written by a man that had recently lost everything. so yeah, you're right.
Here again after 13 years because of "It Ends With Us". This song was so apt for Ryle and Lily.
The song came on when Lily was with Atlas.
Wrong! That would be romanticizing domestic violence. 🤨
What lily did was also Not okay
8 years... I can't believe... Amazing ❤
Ironic
It's 2018 and I'm still in love with this song😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
introducing carys introducing carys introducing carys my favourite line is "I told you to be patient and I told you to be fine and I told you to be kind"
Allyza T ikr
The Vampire Diaries tho, such nostalgic memoriesssss
Listening to this since 10 years.. when i was 16, my life since years just heavy and traumatic.... ❤ still working on my trauma but already more free!! Im proud of all of you❤❤❤❤❤
This song always has a special place in my heart. It was sang at one of my best friends funeral. At 16 Alix was too young.
+Ariel Scherry Sorry for your lost
sorry for lost mate
Thank you 😌
I'm crying for you
It's going to be sung at my best friends funeral in a week's time, RIP Alix and Sophie 13 was too young
I found this song Late, but late is better than never
Late indeed
Listen to original by Bon Iver
@@swiftfist Bon Iver's version> this version
Don't get me wrong, Birdy's version is great but it makes me sad that not many people who have listened to Birdy's version haven't recognised the beauty and the emotion of the Original by Bon Iver. I think about this alot, alot...
Je suis d'accord avec toi
bon ivor is alot more famous than she is, he won a grammy worked with kanye west and all the indie blogs labeled everything he did as classic
people pretty much forgot about her after this song/ album
The French random comment it was youtube who switch some comment
@@rubyr8922 I mainly got my opinion from the amount of views between the videos. The difference is huge!
I'd heard Bon Ivers version first, and then heard this version... I actually listen to Bon Ivers version to feel good, but this version to just feel.
I listen to this when I am down and really need some soulful healing ❤️❤️. Your story is truly amazing and I'm so thankful that you have been given the chance to share your amazing and beautiful talent with us❤️❤️
2018 and still in love with this
Lyrics:
Come on, skinny love, just last the year
Pour a little salt, we were never here
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
Tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Right at the moment, this order's tall
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And 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 light brassiere
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And now, all your love is wasted
Then who the hell was I?
'Cause now I'm breaking at the bridges
And at the end of all your lies
Who will love you?
Who will fight?
And who will fall far behind?
Come on skinny love
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
