  • are u kidding? this is perfect!

  • i found myself just closing my eyes and listening to this beautiful cover, its so perfect

  • i can`t believe how few notes you use to get such a beautiful and full sound! well done

  • sounds really good!!! if it sounds so different, give it a title and you have got your song hahaha. anyway pass us the sheet please

  • I love this song and I think your playing is great. Do you have the sheet or you are playing it by ear?

    Thanks a lot!

  • haha, please do a tutorial? If you can't figure out which chords and notes are being played (as they're being filmed pretty damn clearly), you won't be able to play the song this way anyway.. Cossins has a point, practice!

  • What always amazes me about this song is that by rights shouldn't be able to last the 6 or 7 minutes it does without getting boring or repetitive but it's just too beautiful to ever be boring.

  • I was thinking about doing this song and would see if anyone else has done it. Now I'm not so sure, seems like there's nothing more to be said about "piano cover re: stacks"!

  • terrible? awesome dude!

  • I play piano fully by ear as well, but for people who play by the book or who play by watching it's difficult for them to pick up. If you against a tutorial maybe repozition the camera and play it a bit slower so they can see how your playing it. People Learn differently..

  • @BonIverSUCKS Your youtube name is BonIver Sucks... Really, like why are you picking on her, if you don't like him fine, but don't pick on someone who likes him. Everyones allowed to have an oppinion

  • Please take off the "Terrible Piano Version" part of the title.

  • I would, in all honesty, buy this.

  • Incredible. Tutorial?

  • Gorgeous cover. Tutorial?

  • liked! 

  • truly, beautiful.

  • terrible good

  • please do a tutorial! i think this cover is beautiful and i want to learn it to play for my school performance, i'm really nervous but this song is just amazing!!!!!!!

  • ...jesus christ

  • You know this isn't "Terrible"!!!!

  • I think this is absolutely lovely! I miss my piano that's covered under piles (stacks, ehe) of boxes in my parents storage room. You captured the silent loveliness of the song in this version. <3

  • soooo gooooood

  • So, I played this then started looking at other pages. I started feeling funny and after checking a bit I realized it was my heart melting.

  • marry me.

  • wonderful cover!

    to everyone who's asking for a tutorial...... it's shot from this view, so that it's visible what keys are being played, making it somewhat easy to figure it out. just pause it every so often, and it shouldn't be too difficult, assuming you have experience with piano.

  • I love this Song SOOOOOOO MUCH!

    You must put a tutorial! I only can see so much!

  • Absolutely beautiful! 

  • i hear a lot of piano covers on youtube, and this is amazing. did you come up with this version? i play by ear, and love trying to figure songs out.

  • beautiful song, beautiful cover.

  • This is beautiful

  • please do a tutorial.

  • Whouaouh Juste magique ... Rien à dire c'est parfait ! Une petite larme à l'oeil même !!!

  • this is so lovely.

  • I really like it. Would you plz do a tutoria ??

  • WRONG YOU WERE WRONG !!!!!!!!!!!! It's absolutly not terrible, but completly amazing.

  • The sparceness of the chords really make this brilliant, normally piano covers of any song, the player goes overboard trying to mimic the melody of the voice but you nailed it here. Nothing terrible about this at all! :D

  • a beautiful piece my dear...SHOW US HOW TO PLAY IT!

  • This is amazing! I have no idea what you are talking about when you say terrible.

    

  • This is good for a Zebra with human hands

  • this made my day. beautiful rendition of the song.

    a tutorial would be greatly appreciated. it's such a wonderful piece! =)

  • Ugh... You say crappy when it's good. You could just say it was a piano version and nothing else so you don't sound like a down-on-me hipster. Great piano playing, jackass.

  • this is AAMAZING SHEET MUSIC PLEASE!

  • what can i say... thankyou

  • this is awesome!

  • Could you please post a tutorial/sheet music? :) This is so awesome!

  • so fucking goooood

  • Now if only Tori Amos would cover this I could die a happy man.

  • Pleaseeeeee do a tutorial!!

  • this is absolutely brilliant. i love love love it.

  • Wow ... I just feel like crying now.

    Thank you, this is brilliant.

  • This is by no means crap !! I've listened to the album and every guitar version of this you can think of and this is easily as good as any that Justin Vernon himself plays ! It's just different is all and thats not always a bad thing if you ask me.

  • is too wonderful to be terrible and crappy. Amazing piano skills.

    Thanks a lot for your version!!!!!! :)

  • Comment removed

  • Fuck me, this is brilliant!

  • PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a tutorial!!!!

  • so beautiful

  • tutorial :D

    love it!

  • This is lovely.. part of me wants to hear it on a grand piano in a huge hall, and another part argues that it sounds perfectly understated with just an electric piano and is the reason for it's magic.

    Well done :)

  • beautifuly uncomfortable.

    breath taking.

  • Great cover, you really do this song justice on piano.

  • That was epic. Do you know the chords for this/any other Bon Iver song?

  • that was awesome

    PLEASE DO A TUTORIAL!!!!!

    would love to be able to play that

  • Actually amazing

  • This certainly is NOT terrible. This is a beautiful cover and you should be proud that you figured it out.

    Also thank you for choosing to film it from that angle as it is easier to figure out the notes from a top angle like that.

  • Amazing (:

  • wow, please, please put up the notes for this or a tutorial! youre gifted

  • this is an amazing cover! did you work out the notes yourself? its not terrible at all, i loved it!

  • Spellbinding! And if you dont believe me i even went to the bother of resetting my account just to tell you that. The expressed feeling is so strong...and that is what music is all about after all.I love this song and you have given it a new life for me. I hope you gain some more confidence in your amazing talent soon : )

  • you know... You'd probably gt more views if you didn't put 'terrible' in the title. This is awesome, really nice. Good you.

  • the most diferent cover.

     congratzz.

  • Simon, this is an absolutely incredible cover of Justin's song. I know him and an going to make sure he hears it. You lived and breathed that song through your hands. Use your gift. Reach out to people with it. I am nearly speechless. Thank you. Thank you.

  • I love this song but without the lyrics

  • beautiful... and those hands too!

  • Whoever the heck you are, you just made me cry....absolutely adore this song....the best one on the brilliant Bon Iver debut album

  • beautiful, no words

  • This is beautiful. I second that you should record it.

  • perfect shirt..

  • i obviously can't spell in my astounded state

  • Fantastastic... quit being so modest!

  • That was pretty. Thanks. I needed that.

  • wow i don't even have words for this one.

  • I envy you

  • That's absolutly brilliant. Not terrible at all.

  • beautiful! i think i prefer this to the original, and i'm a huge bon iver fan.... do you have any original compositions?

  • This is so beautiful! If I should get married once and if I had to chose a song for the marriage it would be this one played on the piano. You play it brilliant and I'm absolutely amazed! If you have this song recorded please send it to me. It's too precious not to be heard out of my stereo :] .

    Thank you so much!

  • you are crazy... not crappy at all.. It was great. You should be proud of your good work. Bye

  • dude y do u thnk this is crap?!

  • wow, i'm completely stunned by how good this sounds.

  • this song is beautiful no matter what and it's great that you were able to express it in another musical form. it's really not as terrible as you think. thanks for sharing! i love it! :)

  • This is absolutely amazing... I don't know what your talking about. Probably one of the best piano covers I've heard. And plus, if it's not a piano song, you totally just made it one!

  • Thats Talent... n u COMPLETELY underrate ur self. dont be so modest... cause this is just beautiful

  • one of the best videos on the tube

  • so did you teach yourself this or what? if not, where can i get the music. i love it. great song.

  • This is so lovely. I commented to a friend that you and the piano offer clarity that really shows how beautiful of a tune Bon Hiver wrote. Your skill, the expression of your heart through your fingertips, is amazing.

  • this video is absolutely amazing. a friend of mine showed it to me after we both discovered this Bon Iver song, and I almost cried haha. which is rare for me.

    great job, keep playing please. :)

  • good job man ;)

    greez from germany

  • that was really beuatiful, it's so rare to find something on here where someone has invested so much care and tenderness. you have such a light touch, your playing fills the gap where the lyrics would be.

  • Best cover so far.. i will probably try and cover this, but it will be nowhere near as good!

  • how modest haha nice version!

    greeting from mexico

  • Unbelievable cover!

    wish i could play piano like that...

    and i disagree with you, the song is really well suited to piano. made me appreciate the song alot more. well done 5 stars

  • This is the best cover of Stacks on youtube. You play tenderly, the way it should be played. Thanks for sharing and go Denmark!! my father's home country.

    peace
