Bon Iver - Perth (Later with Jools Holland)

[violasunflowers]

Every time I listen to this song, I imagine myself on a pilgrimage...to where? I've no clue but once those drums kick in in the beginning, it makes it more legitimate. As the song progresses and builds up, my pilgrimage becomes more difficult, yet meaningful. I discover new things and places...This probably makes no sense whatsoever but I can't help thinking that. Happens every time I listen to Bon Iver. It's a soundtrack to the many movies playing in my head.

[annismusic]

@violasunflowers I actually have nothing but those beautiful helicopter-landscape-images in my mind... don't know how to put it in a better way... stunning.

[iamjonnyhaha]

Just saw them in Wellington. Just craaaazy good. Better than this!

[Expertmental69]

What a beautiful mess at the end there....

[iRoxorzUrSoxorz]

dang mikey is getting old! i remember seeing him on this same stage years ago. glad theyre back :)

[Phabulouso]

Having the chills for 4 minutes straight is kinda uncomfortable.

[GinjaNinjaKaratedo]

can anyone see what cymbals they're using, because I love that sound!

[chad1337]

[johnnybrop]

Music + Youtube = Best Combination since Beer and Chips

[Vince3k]

[alongali]

[BERNI0S]

That guy at 0:34. George Michael.

[CaptainPajamaPants]

@BERNI0S

sean carey is amazing. he is in his own band too. but he does bear a striking resemblance...

[HopefulWanderer13]

Who the fuck disliked this?

[TheDanbadams]

[WhiskeyTango12]

The backup singer looks like Mac from Always Sunny.

[Juleessy]

[assadj11]

Basically jizzed at 1:22

[Burgessaudio]

The strings are not very clear in the mix.

[Trygghanse]

Epicness

[Stoneman180190]

This is on God's Ipod

[rolshharris]

Love the transition at 2:25

[FallibleSun9]

I think I added over 1000 views myself.

[hmandf1]

i didnt know Spence from "King of Queens" was the drummer of this band...

[finefornow24]

@hmandf1 Holy shit I said the same thing. I was like...is that fucking Patton Oswalt on the drums?

[jwhensiek]

So excited to see them (again) at Coachella!

[somecallmedaniel16]

I would love for this song to never, ever end.

[buffffffalo]

heaven?

[capnjuggles]

Went to their concert in LA not too long ago. It was an amazing show. My first live experience of Bon Iver. Went with a girl I was seeing and her two friends. After the show she went and talked to the security and before I knew it we were outside and she was hugging the lead singer. Turns out she went to high school with him and his brother. Super chill dude he was.

[cudder995]

@capnjuggles Really thats amazing, you're so lucky :O

[aboynamedsandoz]

Damn. What poor, unfortunate band had to follow that?

[cjsstrickalnd]

Zero dislikes! Why would there be?

[OpenupyourhearttoGod]

Only Bon Iver can have a video on youtube without any dislikes.

[ULTRA8B]

最高の演奏やな。

[stachiano]

THIS SONG IS THE BOMB. MR. IVER IS THE SHIZZ

[fotofed]

@stachiano there is no Mr. Iver, Bon Iver is the name of the band.

[stachiano]

@fotofed: I know, I knowww. My bad

[TheSawyerpot1]

This is awesome!

[themarshjake]

When they opened with this live, I got emotional...

[benwilliamsm]

this is insane! never expected them to be able to this song live!

[chriswrigley]

i wish that song was 20 minutes long

[dressedinpain]

this guy writes things that are in a whole different ballpark of music. Truly revolutionary, distinctive & creative beyond bounds.

[Mikkel2000]

People today could learn so fucking much from this type of music! Music with a soul and a deeper meaning! Beautiful and intense!

[piratebri]

and then the camera panned to Mastadon doing a horrible rendition of curl of the burl...

[piratebri]

Love these guys, but how the hell do they make any money? They have so many people in the group.. seriously need 2 drummers? lol. I can't imagine how much the trombone player makes after its all divied up.

[Soulrivers]

@piratebri The drummers almost always play different fills, and yeah they're pretty huge so they get by just fine I imagine.

[wjcroberts]

I'm glad there are no dislikes for this video....there is nothing to dislike...absolutely beautiful

[mizzrice]

Whoever dislikes this is deaf



[EddieBrightside]

Every time the camera catches that black guy he's doing something different.

The definition of a boss.

[adamgore1]

@EddieBrightside he is the band the rest is just for show

[sarahjoys]

ah! this brings tears to my eyes. so beautiful.

[samiam554]

ANDREW BIRD

[EddieBrightside]

@samiam554 Where?! Seriously??

[charmister]

Gosh, the Bari-sax is so essential.

[blues970123]

the song is like a civil war battle.

[goatscansing]

brilliant!! Seeing them in Toronto in december. second time this year :)

[MyBeardisGood]

@goatscansing I was at the first night! Paid over $100 for the ticket. Worth every penny

[damarckusjonas]

it's gonna be a bon iver this year

[fernyhough100]

Amazing.

[watashiwanachodes]

wow remember the days of bon iver playing by himself with a guitar ... or with tree drummers only? wow his soundscape has certainly grown.. his composing abilities are intact still to justify the bigger band thingy

[MathclassEpiphany]

YES!!!

[BenLongman]

Freaking Andrew Bird on violin!!

[mairekirky]

@BenLongman Its Rob Moose on violin?

[fulltimepenguin]

THAT was fucking amazing.

[mutennis13]

I love Sean's vocalizing at 0:35. so good.

[biskit460]

I am so close to tears right now this was beautiful.

[mattopeters]

seen the band 9 days later live !a real experience

[stachiano]

This song will be the death of me this winter. So beautiful. Words cant even describe how amazing Iver is omg

[jingsken]

wow 2 drummers

[wonderboy86uk]

This is such a brilliantly unorthodox orchestra. It all comes together so well

[mutantpig08]

I get chills at Vernons first line every time I listen to this

[ChiefJanez]

1:32 Troy Sanders from Mastodon likes Bon Iver. awesome!

[Andyakaherman]

@ChiefJanez Everybody likes Bon Iver, thats why this track has 0 dislikes! :]

[psyshock918]

@ChiefJanez A Mastodon/Bon Iver split would've been cooler than the Mastodon/Feist one

[XguitarrockerX]

@ChiefJanez Who doesn't?

[SalsaTheDog]

@ChiefJanez Who doesn't? :)

[BedroomBassist]

I can't get this song out of my head. Not that I'd want to..

[philipsmog]

no

[WaveMeter101]

jools has the best sound techs ever, also the best bands on!

[BedroomBassist]

@WaveMeter101 Couldn't agree more!

[SicknesssDwellls]

This is unbelievable.. a group of 10 or some musicians.. and all of them are as into it as possible. It's so nice to see..

[4Zoot]

One of the best and most varied Laters this year.

Mastodon... followed by Buddy Greco. What could be more brilliantly diverse?

[CaliverMusic]

Caliver is a pretty good band doin the rounds too...

youtube.com/user/CaliverMusic?­feature=mhee

[amolbhatia100]

Sure there is - fleet foxes.

[takejulley]

There is no better artist doing the rounds right now!

[helenarabymusic]

This is incredible.

[lozkopij]

This is faultless. Bet everyone was blown away at Jools Holland!

[stueduk]

Saw them the day after this was filmed; there is not a better live band doing the rounds right now.

[bigd934]

@stueduk fleet foxes put up a good fight
