I want to more without an ad in the middle of it
Can you remove the midroll ad? It interrupts the best bit!
I'd love to see them back on the channel again!
i wish i could hang out with the few people who still come back to these old bon iver videos
Ay! Glad I'm not alone / recently commented. IbRandomly just type in 'Bon Iver live' and zone out listening to them.
where you at? :)

“Emma is not a person; Emma is a place that you get stuck in; Emma is a pain that you cannot erase.” ― Justin Vernon
Daily Dose of WTF "Emma" for me is a woman that I used to love and she caused pain to me
Daily Dose of WTF that just made the song so much better on a whole different level
THE NOBODIES" ∞ FRUIT FLIES ∞ Daily Dose {live at the Firehall Brewery}
its the place she put you in.
The place she inhabits in your mind.
Goddamn that makes me sad...
15 years later, still can't enough of For Emma Forever Ago
Hehe, same 😅 I am 30 yo now, when the album came out I was a kid! It all has passed so fast
Goat album

Bon Iver is such a treasure

@@justadude510 how good is it 🙌🙌🙌
The first time I saw this clip was on the old Current TV channel on one of their music spotlight shows.
The acapella part gives me chills every time when the camera turns around to all those people standing there watching, too perfect.
Idem 🥰
The plot twist
why are these people fleeing ? i would undress myself and cry
"running home, running home, running home.." 5:41 Pink poncho perfect timing.
should cry then get undressed
@@Keatingeatworld everything makes sense in this
@ Evan Cross - Exactly the comment I was coming to write. Thanks for doing God's work.
Yessss - there is an order of operations
I am 14 years old in 7 days. My step father introduced this video to me when I was in 1st grade."he was still my mom's boyfriend at the time"
A few years later they got married and he became my legal stepfather.
Every year maybe once or twice, we will be in the car and this song gets brought up.
We put the song on full volume and we sing along with it.
.Last Christmas I got a guitar and thos was the first song I ever WANTED to learn. I plan to one day be able to play it with him. It truly makes me happy when I hear this song. And it really changed my life.
And I will never forget the day my dad showed me it.
Sounds GREAT ! Learn it ;-) ...an put the Video on UA-cam
I hope this is true, you got all the 35+ aunties in the youtube comments from here to infinity crying
I hope you get to play it in front of him one day.. that's an awesome story!
What a beautiful story! I remember the first time I heard bon iver too, super special moment and the dude that introduced me to my favorite musician has no idea lol
Thanks Cruz, I wish you all the best!
Bon Iver's sound cannot be replicated.
preaaachhhh!
Hell no it can't be but RY X might be close :) lol

Man if id seen Bon Iver coming up to me and my friends playing id be like a 13 year old girl at a One Direction concert I'd start screaming and crying all hysterically lol and then pass out lol
Gabriel White hilarious gab...lol
Gabriel White You're fck right!
Gabriel White I'm with you, man haha
Gabriel White you're god damn right
Well said sir
Sean Carey's solo from 2:59-3:12 is easily my favorite part of this whole video.

It’s wild how I still find myself coming back to this video, I feel like it resonates with me more and more the older I get.
“Go find another lover “ hits every time
*8 years later, still binge watching*
SAME
honestly
same heree :)
Cant wait for the new album, so far soo good
same here
didn't know it was possible to be addicted to music then realised i listen to bon iver all day everyday its the only thing that lets me switch off
my girlfriend passed away this year. the part where the strangers keep walking away resonates with me. i feel like i have everything claire needed to stay alive. i feel like im playing the most beautiful song in the world; one that breathes life into her, but she just keeps walking away.
Jesus christ that's sad. Really sorry man.
Time heals everything brother. Stay strong!
Awe dude. Much love and positive energy. I disagree with Alexander though - things can be healed from when you put in the work...
How are you?
Ya how u doing man
"So how was your day?"
"Kinda of normal, then coming home i stumbled upon Bon Iver, he's just downstairs playing with his bandmates."
blechtrommel90 haha his name is Justin Vernon ;) the band is bon iver. Regardless-it’s incredible!
I recently moved from Florida to Colorado. It’s a big strange shift during this very turbulent year. I’ve been a Bon iver fan for a long time but I somehow have never found this video. I’m so glad I did, because now when I look out at the mountains and I hear this, I feel home. For the first time in a long time.
That’s amazing. Thank you for that Ian :)
I always thought Bon iver used effects to make their voice sound like this,I didn't realize it was a couple of singers with perfect harmonization. It's amazing, reminds me of Alice in chains with how great they sound together
10 hours of "For Emma" but it's just Justin Vernon slowly chasing Parisians around the city.
hahah this is the funniest comment. thankyou.
I listen to this about once a month when I’m in my feels. Always perfect.
I LOVE Sean Carey's "solo" on this. Only two lines and it sounds so good
I love my boy bon but S.Carey gives him a run for his money I'm only discovering S.'s genius now... a little late but his albums are so damn good.
@@isaacking5071 great combo..S. Carey is a huge part of Bon's success
For when I am lost, this song always finds me home. Thanks Bon Iver.
Anyone else think the friendly dog just makes this video perfect?
Dale Maycock dogs make any video perfect. Have you seen The Growlers Take Away Show? They had Jones (their dog) in it, and it was so very adorable.
when it jumps on that lady in the black jacket, i lost it
no
yes, very delicious
yes
Time's gone inside out and so has Justin's sweater
A few dozen people walk away from them singing, but here on youtube it has been listened to over 2 million times by thousands of people. Strange how that works.
+John Evans Poor circumstantial timing?
How fear works on human beings you'll mean?;) You could look it up if you're interested. Generally were talking about human instinct behavior on fear there. Humans are in such a transition of change these days though, in many ways.
+John Evans it works like this. you see a lot of people walking away from chocolate stores because that's either not what they want or they were busy. but the facebook page for chocolate has millions of likes.
Must be americans
Cause life likes to play sick jokes on us .
this video is years old, I keep coming back to watch this incredible talent.
plus I've only just realised that he's wearing the sweater inside out :p
the fact his jumper is inside out is, frankly, adorable
The talent is not recognize that all people when it comes to them. Sorry for the artists iam and persons try to share with us, BLIND.
Can’t believe this was 12 years ago. Bon Iver was a huge part of my late teens and early twenties. This will never go out of style for me.
The bit where the tourists run away cracks me up every time. I keep noticing new things. The black chef taking a break. The people outside in the restaurant who are obviously listening to the music- which the camera captures in the last few moments of the song.
I haven't watched this in over 10 years and it still hits me emotionally now, just as it did all those years ago. My life is so different and has changed so much, yet it still hits me hard. It brings back crystal clear memories and the same emotions I felt then. Wonderful stuff.
One of the best Take Away shows, i think..
The intro, the dog, the accapella, the smell of Paris, the filming, the singing, the melodica..and the people running home..
This is seriously giving me life.
the dog was enjoying this more than anyone
These old blogotheque videos hit so hard. I grew up on these. Actually insane that this was 15 years ago
this whole album, especially this song, has helped me to understand what real love is.
i've already met my emma, and she's already gone,
but fortunately she has introduced me this album for the first time,
so it's like if she had gave me the keys, for then lock her door.
for emma, forever ago.
so much love from italy to all the people that are struggling with love.
i know that one day we'll be able to open that door.
and it will be fine. we'll be fine.
I always end up here
Me too. Especially after a couple of wines 🙃
You are my people.
Always when I tell people about this video I tell them about this comment. I think it's so true and the best way to describe this video
Likewise... Back again
Same
The song he sings in the beginning is Drunkmare by Ticonderoga. You're all welcome.
thank you =]
hero
You're doing God's Work, my friend
thanks, i knew there was someone out here
Man I had forgotten that very last shot with these silhouettos in semi-darkness... They bring out the melancholy so well, not to mention the time that has passed since this was released...
Tears. 15 years later and still tears. Reminds me of that time in my life trying to figure everything out and going through heartbreak and uncertainty. This album got me through so much shit.
Lmao same.
I am currently in that position and coming back to it for this very reason
Why can't I ever be in the right place at the right time like this?!
+Emily P haha! and them people walking away from them :)
+Hery Ratsimihah yes!! The first time I watched this, and still now that I watch it, it makes me mad that the people were walking away. I would stood there in awe! I absolutely love Bon Iver!!
+Chel Belle maybe that's just life; maybe these things happen all the time around us but we just don't see them :D
It is a sign that you were called to be the "Right Place." You were called to bring joy to the broken, peace to the lost, and thought to the benighted.
Wish for it hard enough and it will happen to you. It happened to me.
I remember my older brother showing me this song when I was so young and didn’t know the meaning or anything about the song. I’m now 19 about to be 20 and this song means so much to me it hurts a lot .
Keep your head up kid unless you're jamming out. God has a plan for you
Once every few months I go back to this video like it's an old friend. Thank you for the warm coffee and good conversation, buddy. You are the best.
This video is so beautiful, the music, their voices, the energy...I always cry every when I see it, i'm crying right now.
The first time I listened this song was 7 months ago, November, in Asturias. It was a rainy day and I was with my girlfriend and our dog inside of our house. She was studying and I was with the headphones listening this incredible song. I remember perfectly every detail of that moment, as if it were happening right now, so I'm going to write as if I were living it right now.
I only do one thing, observe Elena's beauty. The beauty of the moment. The beauty of life. I feel peace, gratitude and love. And I also feel melancholy, because I know that this moment will not last forever.
I only want to stop fucking time. Just her and me, and our dog, in the middle of the mountain. The rain, the fireplace, the music...
Since that moment, I have that memory in my head almost every day. I listen this beautiful song and I teleport to that moment. And I feel her beauty. I feel alive and at peace.
A part of me will always live in that moment.
Thank you for making me feel alive. Thanks for the music. Thanks for the love.
lfg
This was a vibe, and an era
I've been watching this video for a few years now and it's still amazing.
Same here reminds me of several pivitol moments in my life
15 years later and still moves my soul
Its been a decade for me.. i keep coming back and i still cry
big shout out to the lady at 5:36 acting out the lyrics
oh she's running home lol 😂
Lol
hahahahahahahaha
lmaooooo
LOL TRUE
January 2024, going back to 2012 when I fall in love with this girl, just listening to this. Still love her deeply ❤
I was 15 when I first saw this, now I'm 30 and I'm back for more, I guess life brings us to where we need to be.
Over 10 years. I have shown this exact video to SO many people. WOW.
Iv been watching this video for 15 years
The dog really ties it together.
its been years, but i can never get enough of this
Justin's sweater inside out
Dude I'd be like crying so hard if I saw them, not running away! My god ;-; I'M SO IN LOVE
Nearly 3 years later and this is still one of my favorite things on the internet.
I think it's time for another one of these, Blogotheque.
Every time that pink lady runs it home when they sing run it home, too good, this video got me thru so much in highschool
I am no longer able to count how many times I watch this video. Too good.
The guy being interviewed at the beginning was the frenchest most French frenchman In the history of France.
When I heard this first in the early 2009, I liked it, of course.
But I never thought it would become such a classic that I will be searching for many years later.
One of the best music videos ever made.
I used to listen this full album on 2017 everyday... One of the all time greats, it is a sensation, a feeling, a relationship you can't get back to, a special time to be alive and exist in time which will forever live on through this beautiful beautiful touching melodies
I know each and every song of this album. I welcome Bon Iver in my flat if he wants to make an acoustic session
UA-cam needs a repeat option for videos like this ... cant stop listening.
LOL There is one. At the end it appears next to the volume. So crank up the sound and sit back and repeat away. ;)
haha, now you can just right click on any video and press the loop option
They don't even need instruments. Just perfect.
The voice is an instrument. They've mastered the human instrument.
YagmanX I know you commented this 5 years ago, but I subbed to your channel recently for game dev stuff and thought it was funny to randomly stumble on your comment here while I was rewatching this great vid. Good taste in music 👌🏻 also, it’s always great to see fellow devs share their projects, keep up the good work!
This is one of my favorite videos on the whole internet.
I’m visiting Paris for the first time and I was randomly walking around today… when I was overcome with a profound sense of Deja vu. I realized I had stumbled upon this exact spot where they performed outside (with all the tourists running away haha). It’s funny how memories work. As the crazy fan I am, finding this little gem was the best part of my day.
This is THE perfect song to contemplate all of our Emma issues with
At 5:38 they actually made a woman run home!!! These guys are AMAZING!
What was wrong with her?!! And why were all the others walking away?!
Owen Philipson I think I read somewhere on here that that's just how it is in Paris. So many "starved musicians" walking up to you hoping to get some cash, so you learn to walk away from performers.
@Yamsmos I see you at almost every Bon Iver Video. I like that.
dablock Hey man, love the band and all they do.
Yamsmos so do I :)
This video is whole genre on its own
5:11 That's the appartment where Albert Camus completed The Outsider/The Stranger.
No way, that's great little piece of trivia. How did you find that out?
Took myself around Paris looking for some spots significant to Camus and De Beauvoir etc. This one was quite difficult to locate but was probably the best
You can find lists of such locations online!
95% of people are clueless what you even mean, sadly enough
@@dsroaddogg You judge by yourself? I hate these pseudo-intelectual sad cringe posts. Congratz you are among 5% top world intelectuals. :)
So abruptly
Saw death on a sunny snow
For every life
Forgo the parable
Seek the light
My knees are cold
Running home, running home
Running home, running home
Go find another lover
To bring a, to string along
With all your lies
You're still very lovable
I toured the light so many foreign roads
For Emma, forever ago
So apropos*
Never fails to bring me happy tears.
I still keep coming back to this 15 years later
This song and this version came out at such a pivotal moment in my life. It takes me back to my youth, of discovering oneself, and wondering what the future would bring. Ah, thanks UA-cam for reconnecting me, us!
I'm not kidding now. Hearing this song live would probably cure my depression and those people are just walking away!? WTF????
I feel so lucky to have seen Bon Iver in 2012 after 2 brain surgeries, because I had 8 more after that and my concert days are over. I still love to watch this from time to time.
Hope all is well
when you get the confirmation it does not need much for real music that touches your soul. all this mainstream will erase the soul of music. let's be thankful for these moments.
15 years later have this on repeat
11 years and it still hurts...to see the people getting away from them. Even if they don't knew him the music speak for themselfs. thanks Blogothéque for this youtube Gem .
I was in Paris recently and visited the Montmartre without a map, just wondering around, hoping to find the park that they (and altj) played at. Right when I was about to head back, I saw a small park a couple blocks away and walked towards it. It just happened to be the same one. I just sat there for a while, taking in what had happened here several years prior.
That's great, I was thinking on doing the same... Do you have any directions you could give me? Thanks
+Alan Ixba-Zárate Take a look at the name of the buildings they pass when they go by the tour group. Those businesses are still there.
Thanks! Greetings
+Stephan Ng hah gay
orginallos I know that you mean that to be an insult, but it's a perfectly valid life choice (one of which I do not partake).
And I know that they say to never feed the trolls, but really? You reached into the vast caverns of all the words in the English language and all you could come up with was "gay"? If you are going to try and be insulting, at least do it properly.
However, if you chose to take the mature route and not try and retort, I would advise you to just quiet yourself and listen to the music instead of spreading prejudice and bigotry to anyone who will listen.
2:59 gives me instant goosebumps, holy fuck that guy is good
Why is this so poetically beautiful?
if that was me I would be freakin out. Bon Iver is on the street, you guys
Forever and always coming back to this video
If i could speak to Justin Vernon, I'd tell him, For Emma Forever Ago, is one of my favorite albums ever. 60s to modern day.
Who's still coming back for this timeless symphony Late in 2019? and who really really wishes they were there when this was being done?
Im gonna raise my hand to both. Especially the second question.
One of THE BEST MUSIC albums ever to come out in our lifetime.
Aye
Brought back here by swapping music with a new person in my life ❤️
i will forever come back to this video..and if its taken down i will get very depressed lol
Been having a hard time lately and this is always like a warm hug that lets me know that things were once awesome and it will be again.
What happened????
Life happens. And it’s okay. It just nice to have reminders of the happy times.
i found myself walking up a very steep hill after a day of very steep hills. and there i was walking up the same steps there in motemarte. Those trees are still there, that vibe is still there, that place is alive. 14 years and still going
This dudes been 30 years old for 2 decades. Long live the Vernon.
A tear falls each time and everytime I think of the times I have failed to articulate just how ducking beautiful you are to me. How this rendition makes me think of the cold winters in you’re room and the blistering summers in our field. We’re we fell in love and we’re I began to believe again.
"Okay, now where's the Eiffel Tower? Gah, I can't think with these guys singing in my ear!"
😂
Imagine if this was how you heard this song for the first time in your life. Just grabbing a coffee by yourself on a dreary morning in Paris. life changing moment
I don’t think I’ll ever forget Ky. She really was everything to me.
11 years and this remains the best video on the internet
14 years and this remains the best video on the internet
More than 10 years have passed since I found this...and Bon Iver is still active...that's so amazing.
Glad this came into my life when it did, I don’t think later or earlier was needed, i feel like this came into all of our lives at the right time
I’m back again, this time with heartbreak
Paris france, can't have this vibe anywhere else
this takes me back ... Bon Iver ... the earlier years
