Bon Iver -- Lump Sum

[MrGnarlava]

search: Forrest Foster. 

[Drummer140]

It's storming outside in January and I've been replaying this for at least an hour. Perfectly content right now

[StephenStitt]

I said Bon Iver was light years ahead of Fleet Foxes and I stand by that. I like Fleet Foxes, I do think though that Bon Iver is just so so much better. Try not to have a shit fit over one guys opinion, think you can do that? Okthankyoubye.

[blues970123]

Bon Iver represents the midwest and the common man more than any politician ever will.

[askaluchadore]

@augustokosak tickets to a live show for all three

[Gabriellaella23]

I love how soulful he is.

[MrDjpooppants]

58 people are boys

[Liiammm3]

@MrDjpooppants Are you kidding me?

[pjeffries301]

Am I the only one hearing Jeff Buckley? sp. What art, Yeah.

[coastalcaveman]

So human, so desolate.

[ogechinigerian]

I think all three bands are unique and distinct. Bon Iver sounds like he incorporates a lot of soul and even jazz at times. Mumford and Sons sound like old yet fresh English folksters and Fleet Foxes sound like well folk. You can't really compare MS with Bon Iver and the same goes with FF as well but I could see the comparison between MS and FF. But overall all three are great and they deliver powerful and emotional messages and that's all I need.

[wazzamaddawiduden]

Rubbish singer.

[grooviescycleshop]

If you like this check out The Regretting Man on Youtube and facebook

[guitardudwithguitar]

Just bought this guys whole album ... Yet I still come on youtube to listen ... why ? haha

[MusicLeHappiness]

How sad am I, I know all the words to every Bon Iver song. And it still never gets old for me.

[xouribb]

mumford is nice but it lacks something magical, that you wont miss in bon iver

[scharw1]

Roskilde!!!

[Pgov65]

@augustokosak The Tallest Man on Earth

[RyanMurphyTube]

Listening to this song sorts my head out.

[DarkPouPou]

I think Fleet Foxes is way better than Mumford and Sons and you can't really compare both of them to Bon Iver in my opinion.

[EyemJusSwell]

@DarkPouPou I don't think you can compare any of them. They are all different style bands.

[loonyleper]

seriously underrated!!! talk about smooth and cool-as-all-hell!!

[TheJonesy0605]

Did somebody really compare Bon Iver and Mumford and Sons? Oh dear.

[menano182]

COLOR THE ERA

[ellieayywaa]

This is love

[Iey9]

@AureliusMaximus10 similar 'wordless' vocal style to radiohead's thom yorke, having to read the lyrics seperately helps me understand the song more personally either way, its great.

[wiegandmatt7]

fleet foxes, mumford and sons, and bon iver are different types of folk. However, in my opinion, all are equal. I favor the Foxes though lolz

[ckeeton1989]

WHAT GUITAR IS HE PLAYING?!

[blues970123]

its like SOUL FOLK

[yeoldseafrog]

@JerkyRonson hahaha, i may actually try that, thanks ;)

[checkerboardkid]

i...i just don't understand the negative criticism...it's when i start to doubt my faith in humanity...what is there not to like about this song???????? honestly?...yes, music is subjective, but the number of dislikes counted against this video are testament to how fucked up the world is...

[Rosbjerg]

@checkerboardkid Watch the news for about 5 minutes - that should put things into perspective. There's no need to get upset over the fact that 1 out of 42 doesn't like Bon Iver (a pretty good ratio if you ask me, I'm sure most bands would appreciate that). People have different taste, nothing wrong with that.

[BrianLeo666]

His beard makes this song so much better.

Beards make everything better. 

[vonrobbo]

@JerkyRonson Nice one troll.

[hattchixx]

@JerkyRonson Jerky is right!! If you take the time out of your day to come comment on a wonderful musician's video, this song must have some meaning. If you don't like Bon Iver that much, than don't listen to it!! Don't ruin the fans day by commenting this crap.

[onekdur]

@hattchixx dont worry i reported that fag.

[RaoulDukeWillis]

50 people like Nickelback

[yeoldseafrog]

could someone tell me what guitar he uses? t'would be much appreciated! x

[higangster]

this song is fuckin sexy.

[ilovetati91]

what other bon iver songs have the same sound as the original of lump sum? it's so hauntingly beautiful and natural. i also like for emma and skinny love.

[maxcap2]

@ilovetati91 blindsided

[copaceticmusic]

love this? me too. davesplaylist.co.uk/

[annasuper101]

I just love this man.

[CamronJLB]

if you like this song, you will enjoy his other songs, because they are all the same.

[sszobesky]

If bon iver was a potato, i would enjoy that potato!

[gettingtedious]

Justin Vernon, you are just so perfect. x

[Dan0fTheDead7892]

I want his voice inside of me...

[augustokosak]

fleet foxes, mumford and sons, bon iver. what more could you ask for

[SssandraK]

@augustokosak

.....Laura Marling,Damien Rice,Iron and Wine & The tallest man on earth,maybe ?

[jordanamy95]

@augustokosak You forgot Ben Howard.

[BorrowedLadders]

Did you really just give Mumford and Sons the courtesy of comparing them to Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver? Shameful.

[nortynick9]

@BorrowedLadders did u just give fleet foxes the courtesy of comparing them to Bon Iver? Even more shameful

[BorrowedLadders]

@nortynick9 I'm sorry to tell you this, but Bon Iver played a dual show with them in Phoenix that I went to, and Justin specifically complemented them on their talent. So he agrees with me, sorry bud. And are you really too lazy to type the extra two letters in the word "you?" Now that is shameful.

[mauricejudels94]

@augustokosak city&colour :D

[StephenStitt]

@augustokosak Bon Iver is lightyears ahead of Mumford or Foxes

[cachetband]

@StephenStitt Maybe light years in a different direction, all three of them are wonderful artists. the world needs different colours haha

[thewaydownmachine]

@StephenStitt pwnd

[myhigherpie2]

@StephenStitt

Mumford and Sons, yes, but Fleet Foxes is equally his equal or better.

[MitchellPeels]

@myhigherpie2 You are very, very right!

[dickbillows]

@StephenStitt Burgers taste so much better than tacos or spaghetti.

[jaspermp]

@StephenStitt alright, i'll give you Mumford & Sons, but don't knock Fleet Foxes.

[dannyandalexvideos]

@StephenStitt Sorry, but your dumb as hell, Fleet Foxes are also an amazing band

[StephenStitt]

@dannyandalexvideos When did I say I didn't like them? Dumbass.

[aymyeyehurts]

@StephenStitt Have you listened to Fleet Foxes new album at all?

[MichaelHaire0]

@StephenStitt Maybe Mumford and Sons...but Fleet Foxes new album is giving bon iver a run for his money.

[TwoSenseProduction]

@augustokosak band of horses

[landondonovanify]

@augustokosak i could ask for less, less mumford and sons

[XguitarrockerX]

@augustokosak Laura Marling, The Tallest Man On Earth, Sufjan Stevens, Radical Face, Joanna Newsom. The list is long, and that makes me feel like I live in a better world.

[MitchellPeels]

@augustokosak Ever heard of Iron & Wine? but now the "Flightless Bird, American Mouth" type, but the "Belated Promiss Ring"type, or "Gray Stables", "House by the Sea", "Carousels" "Communion Cups and Someone's Coat" I could go on and on and on

[1993windle]

@BonIverSUCKS EVERY ONE!!!! who is even talking to this guy here has Obviously not been clever enough to realise its a fake account made by some one to piss people off so he/it will probably never read any of these messages...... -_-"

[laplandJJ]

this is one of those songs that make a nearly-perfect moment perfect :)

[33tomification33]

@BonIverSUCKS HAHA! you sad arsehole, I've seen that exact comment on 3 over Bon Iver videos. Plus, stop going on about how much you love meat, we get it, you're a big hard man, and know one will question that because we're all terrified about how solid you are. Get a life and stop this quest for attention, puberty was hard on us too, you'll get throught it, eventually, now piss off.

[sk8terkidpoop]

@emileyTaylor33 Don't worry about overplaying these songs. Trust me i play them far to often, and somehow they never get old.

[Rickardlindgrens]

@IdontCareAboutTed ok be cool and go to the gym!

[CensoredSounds]

@IdontCareAboutTed Haters b hatin'.

[azuza94]

in love.. :]

[eriblood]

@iwantyoutofeedme lyrics can't have a lack of diction, dumbass. your half-wit criticism is unwanted and unnecessary.

[savagegiraffe1]

@BonIverSUCKS Im gonna make out with your face in a minute pal, then eat all your 59 cent hamburgers, and you better save a couple for bon iver, if not youll be sorry, so sorry youll continue making out with my face, and if you trip and fall then broken glass will be all over you cause of a couple of punks smashing beer bottles in the alley, but youll come around, and then youll shake my hand and punch me in the face, well FUCKING DO IT! Im in love with a stripper, shes beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[1993windle]

@savagegiraffe1 That was amazing...........

[iwantyoutofeedme]

The music and voice are passably acceptable, but the diction, or lack thereof, is nothing short of appaling.

[mjax211]

@iwantyoutofeedme Stop listening to the songs and ripping his diction. Make a legitimate complaint or get a job.

[DJbrownmagic]

for some reason i have a feeling boniversucks actually may like bon iver, a lot. Idk why. I do!

[ShavedSquirrelNuts]

@BonIverSUCKS could be Justin Vernon. In which case Hi justin if you wanna go to my cabin in Montana for 4-6months an smoke sub par- trimarginal joints and somehow crank out an album with me sometime hit me up. P.S. re stacks has helped me win over some pretty interesting pussy when I play it sometimes. I feel guilty though cause you wrote the song but I'm like essentially siphoning your pussy. anyways please accept my humble apologies for that.

your a pretty good man I like your beard and shit

[ysnsbl8]

48 dislikes by moron .--called BonIversucks...

[Sterlingmapletree]

I hate to be the douchebag that says the specifif number of dislikes there are and then says something bad about 48 people, but really, there shouldn't even be one.

[justaperson98]

I wonder what would happen if not a single person replied to BonIverSUCKS? Would the lack of attention cause him to shrivel up and die?

[DJbrownmagic]

@justaperson98 no, trolls never die

[iEatFosterChildren]

mmmmmm, yummy!

[J4KETS]

@BonIverSUCKS Dude, how fucking bored are you? If you're going to troll. go troll rebecca black or bieber for christs sake, this is real music. you shouldnt exist here

[ScarlettStreet]

/watch?v=psKGKJoiPyI

[ttraver90]

@BonIverSUCKS you intentionally go out of your way and write this thinking its hilarious and it just shows how much attention you werent given as a child. that sucks im sorry you have a shitty life.

[WE4R3BR0KEN]

why is he so awesome?

[EmileyTaylor33]

You know those songs where all you wanna do is replay them, but at the same time you don't wanna ruin them?

This is one of those songs.

[TheHighfligh]

Dont know how i say it better :)

[reppinthatseattleblu]

@BonIverSUCKS damn you have a lot of time on your hands. or the lack of a life.

[benastin]

@BonIverSUCKS Oooooh Jealousy. Don't worry, you're beautiful heartfelt record will be heard one day. Who cares how good he is on guitar...he's produced a class album that sounds different to a lot of stuff out there. I'm a get yer cock out rock n roll man, but I know good music when I hear it. You should try opening yer mind fella.

[cdog389]

ted nugent at full volume?... so ur probably deaf by now and had no taste in music anyway *shrug* :)

[YouDamnWatermelon]

@BonIverSUCKS Get a life dude, : P

[AdrianEindhoven]

i love good music. i love this song.

[chelsea1156]

@BonIverSUCKS why do you hate him so much aha ?

[IndieGeekChris]

i like how he gets so INTO his songs, so emotional, really hits you.

[GlumLotDrums]

@BonIverSUCKS Shut the fuck up you mindless prick. How bout you go suck yourself because Bon Iver is fucking awesome and you are only hating on him cus your eyes can't see your little needle dick so you hate on legit amazing artists over the internet. If you said this to my face I would beat the shit out of you. So shut the fuck up you worthless sack of shit.

[HUGESTIR06]

I love this video and have done for ages..since I saw it...please rate my music & comment honestly & openly...love x

[FunkayMonkay1]

BONER VER

[theoriesandelements]

@BonIverSUCKS We uhh, don't care.

[iiproformify]

@BonIverSUCKS You should die. Obviously you like Bon Iver so much that you have to make an account called Bon Iver sucks. I'm doneee!

[JusticieroBurning]

BORED

[carlose0318]

i think this is about 1000x better than any of his new stuff...it just sounds fake to make. all you need is a voice and a guitar...

[12zinderman12]

This gay girl love this man! : P

[threeonethird313able]

Bon Iver is FU***** awesome! i like his music! :)

[SockMcCallister]

The fame and simplicity of this likely inspire many to keep rockin' in their way. Thanks.

[richardjebaby]

Bonne Hiver!

[Dutchiewutchiee]

@richardjebaby I don't wanna act all smartypants and so but it actually is 'bon hiver' :D +Beautiful song!

[angerock49]

@richardjebaby What ? 'cause if this is made to be french, it's actually just Bon hiver ;)

[bipbipboum]

@richardjebaby belle faute d'orthographe !

[pmegre1]

respect!!

[chave015]

I think its so sexy when a guy can sing. && Bon iver can sing. ;)

[randomness1894]

@boiblz Oh the Irony xD

[MrShnizzle69]

This guy sings in the only octave I can't sing in. Try singing along. I just can't do it! Curse you, Bon Iver!

[Aerokings]

Bon Ivir I think has a cool sence of jazzy content in their style of playing,is what we all need.

[man0warII]

u all are boring

[3mm3t]

this song is actually about pooping when u look into its bout how serious pooping is on a more metaphysical level..everythings poop is what he's saying...come on guys..jeex,idiots.

[3mm3t]

Im my arbor till my ardor trumphed every inner inertia,lump some

[tarcusmoonweed]

He makes me so wet ):

[RevelinSkyMusic]

check out our new video..not as good as this... this is f**king amazing!!

[bradenanders]

This kind of music isn't more famous because if it was, these musicians wouldn't have anything to complain about in their songs. The only thing wrong in Justin Bieber's life is deciding which colour snowcone to order.

[JuicyCrumpets]

@bradenanders and which man to have his merry, homosexual way with.

[Fantasmazzz]

Not only is it yours, but it is also about Bieber.

[grisbein]

Shut up with this stupid Justin Bieber. You talk about him everywhere.

Beautiful music like this must be respected with accurate words.

And this one feeds my soul.

[CloseToComfort]

It is pronounced like BAWN EYE-VIR. It is a play on words for "good winter" in French, however it is an Americanized pronunciation and its been confirmed live by Justin Vernon himself.

[xkidd092]

his voice just does something to me, its amazing...

[NestaPotgieter]

They dont make voices like that anymore.

[larcaster]

Deep seated urban decay, deep seated urban decay

[CloseToComfort]

@larcaster *seeded

[MeganKerschieter]

He looks so hardcore with the beard and stuff, but inside he has like a nice little voice (:

[warrior127s]

i hope the 44 people who disliked it only did becasue the song ended any other reason is plain wrong, mans a genius!! @scottmccabe

[harrytheblurfan]

@xxxvolpex3 Bon (eve)r

[xxxvolpex3]

is it like bon  (eve) r - or - bon (eye)ver

[themisanthrope86]

@xxxvolpex3 it's bon (eve)r - it's french for 'good winter'. although i don't think it's a big deal. if you like justin, it's all good.

[soondooboo1]

Guy looks like a lumberjack but hella talented.

[Dan0fTheDead7892]

@soondooboo1 He does look like a lumberjack...

[chrisdanaher]

@soondooboo1 He actually chopped down a tree to create his out guitar

[MelleB90]

Don't even try to play this on a properly tuned guitar.

The entire record was played and relies on guitars that aren't perfectly tuned!

[watashiwanachodes]

@MelleB90 eh?? nope dude guitars are tuned on not standard tunnings on most of the 'For Emma...' EP songs but real tunnings he was not thinking in doin like a dead kennedys kinda thing..

But this, flume and for emma forever ago are in standard tunning

cheers mate

[Bishop42o]

We need a Acoustic Album!!!

[maximusplatipus94]

i like the fact no one seems to get bored of vernon i heard his album when it was first released over 3 years ago and people that heard it then still love him ! and because he's not overrated he always will be loved by these fans

[Dressommer]

I like the fact that Justin Vernon created this album in a cabin - in northwestern wisconsin. It has a unique sound! I recommend For Emma, Forever Ago to everyone.

[narley410]

he has the vocie of the gods : O

[brzjaw]

I love this version, it's wonderful, subtlety different to the album version. It makes me want to see them live. Justin Vernon is simply amazing. And I can hardly wait for the new album in June.

[ohiolover0]

ohh, how his music soothes my ears. <3

[Hotalock]

view 900,000!



[connorbsp]

In simple terms, I wish I could be this man. If not that i'd settle for being as talented as him

[BizarreLoveTriaangle]

I N L O V E <3

[jenlovesgiraffes]

Why is it that everything on youtube has some kind of Justin Bieber bash on it? Shut up and listen to the wonderful music that people have gifted us with.

[Gabriellaella23]

@jenlovesgiraffes exactly!

[fakmusicak]

This music open my heart ,Thanks!

[boiblz]

..why is the 2nd most like comment on this about justin beiber..

[Nathan13A]

@boiblz Devalues everything on this page, his name shouldn't be thought of when listening to this...

[tdubworldwide]

@boiblz i dont know if you realize this or not but your comment is about justin beiber as well...
