i listened to this back to back for roughly two weeks after my heart was devastated. lots of crying. lots of bleeding. lots of thinking. what a way the lyrics are put. gorgeous and hollow at the same time. i think theres something about embracing the pain though and seeing whats in your heart that helps you heal. actually heal. its still hard to listen to this. thank you for this album justin
@Kaposts22 That's whats so amazing about their fans. I saw them a few days after this in DC and it was the same way. We were all just mesmerized by them that everyone stood there in silence and took it all in.
This song. Live. Is absolutely breathtaking. Saw this when he performed in Edinburgh, Scotland and I was in tears. He got the biggest standing ovation I have ever seen at any concert.
I love the explosion of applause when they realize what he is playing, but not as much as I love how quickly that celebration ends because everyone wants to hear it played. What wonderful fans.
@hisnameismoses That's where i picture myself when i listen to Bon Iver.LA jus isnt the scene for his music,so i have to imagine myself in a cabin out in Wisconsin snowed in.Cooking some chili while listening to Bon Iver sounds nice
@Heywhasgood we can only hope he has some knowledge of how cosmically powerful his songwriting is, this one in particular latched itself to my soul and heart as soon as i heard it. i think he knows.
Bless you for recording this-- my original favorite Bon Iver song. Holocene's got me now, but coming back to this one, it might still be my all-time fave. GAH I love Justin Vernon... all by himself. :)
I love how when you're there, nobody says a word, while he sings this beautiful piece of music. Pure silence for pure brilliance.

I love how JV has brought back the spirit of a real heart-felt song that is sung solo, low key, and beautifully. Just swell!

What I love about Bon is his beard. Certainly not his singing.

The drive in his song writing isn't in hope of fame, thats what I love about Bon Iver
