  • This song makes me loose my mind and do nothing but feel. Not even concentrate on controlling my eyes anymore but do nothing but realize the beauty of music.

  • Im alive because of this man

  • Horrible cover comparing to the original

  • This song is from Bonnie Raitt

  • I can't press the like button as much as i'd like.

  • It's so beautiful that makes you want to cry! Bon Iver always amazes me with his incredible voice. This is real music <3

  • I've cried so many times to this song, and also other songs of Bon Iver's. So much love

  • it's 2:20 and i am sat in my pyjamas crying to this song. bon iver i love you.

  • @gymresolution The fact you said you knew Bon Iver when HE walked around barefoot shows that you clearly don't know anything. Bon Iver is a band, not just one person. So stop acting like you know know things when you are just like every other noob our there, who is hoping on the bandwagon and thinks Justin Vernon is the only member in Bon Iver.

  • @lilherm84 bon iver started as just a dude in a cabin. not a band.

  • This song is about my life. This girl is the love of my life, but she doesn`t feel the same about me. I wish she loved me, i really do.

  • I thought he was a lame indie tenor musician that girls and sensitive guys listened to...but that freaking intro...

  • Goosebumps.

  • this is a blessing x

  • Bon Iver and Adele should do a duet of this!

  • It doesn't matter what you're here for, we're all here for the same reason, the fact that we're all listening to incredibly good music c:

  • I get here randomly , and I'm glad!

  • Good music brought me here.

  • SOUL!!!!

  • Ugh...that falsetto...

  • BON IVER BROUGHT ME HERE.

  • BON IVER MAKES ME CRY LIKE A BABY AND I'M NOT AFRAID TO ADMIT IT.

  • Damn...check out his voice when he transfers out of falsetto at 3:24.....lots of power! I like the sound a lot. Great song, does something good for my SOUL!

  • The best voice in the entire world. no one has a chance.

  • WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD THIS SONG??? I NEED IT

  • i have never heard a white man have this much soul.

  • Respect from Cyprus! 

  • This is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. He makes a cover sound better than the original.

  • Thank you for your wonderful gift.... beautiful 

  • So you knew about Bon Iver before the rest of the population? That's great, here's a gold star!

  • Does anyone know where i could get a midi file of this ?

  • This dude must be a eunuch

  • @lumberjack20 it's falsetto he actually has a really low voice.

  • @reppinthatseattleblu a lot of fags use falsettos.

  • @reppinthatseattleblu also a lot of eunuchs use falsettos.

  • @reppinthatseattleblu fun fact, a lot of people use falsettos when they fart in public. I bet this dude is also falsetto farter.

  • i have a friend who worked in a record shop. he always shows me various good music. i liked most of them, but i was always like "a man sings like Johnny Cash. don't show me singers with high voice." now, this is the point where i found out that Bon Iver is the only man on earth who's high voice i can accept. in fact, love.

  • So powerful.

  • Haha, on the final chord all I could think... hmmm C Major, that song wasn't as cool as I had thought.

  • This is why he won artist of the year

  • this made me cry a little bit

  • beautiful! and yes it is nice to understand the lyrics.

  • Comment removed

  • it's nice to be able to actually make out the lyrics for a change :)

  • hermosoooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

  • I ended up, unable to imagine my existence without Bon Iver. Am I pathetic? Oh, please, ask me If i give a damn.

  • This is the one song that gives me the chills every time I come back and listen to it. Wow.

  • This is incredible, he is incredible. And will stay like that, because this kind of music is the stuff that links memories..<3

  • MAIOR MÚSICA.

  • I hate top comments that are long. Lazy me I know D;

  • Thank you for existing Bon Iver.

  • (Y)

  • Unbelievable! just love how u put ur emotions into the song and the music, knochs me off my feet!!! lots of people can sing or play an instrument, but there are only a few to break the threshold from good to excellent, touching music! you did that!!! Thanks a lot for that! Amazing how your voice and piano sync so well and transport your feelings directly through the video! Awesome voice and love the sound of the piano!!! so sick :D

  • TANNER PATRICK BROUGHT ME HERE! :)

  • @nurkamilia1 my good taste in music brought me here

  • Oh shit! He's getting popular! Quick, let's start talking about how much of a sell out he is. I knew Bon Iver back when he was still walking barefoot in the woods of Wisconsin! If you want to hear "good" Bon Iver I highly suggest picking up audio recordings of him as a baby, it's life changing really.

  • @gymresolution You actually know Bon Iver...?

  • @jamsavagio i know him too :)

  • @gymresolution such a hipster you are :)

  • @gymresolution if I could give you four Grammys for this comment...I would.  Well done.

  • too cheesy for me

  • First time hearing of him, first time hearing his voice. it wasn't what i had expected, but i love it anyways(:

  • I feel so calm listening to his voice.

  • Fascinating, moves me on a level i don't understand.

  • can i please like this a million, bazillion times again and again and aagain?

  • I met him at the airport today. I cried.

  • Amazing. That's all. <3

  • I knew Justin Vernon before his mom knew she was having him. I win.

  • you can tell just from the expression on his face how much he's in love with this song.

  • nice hat

    It's also a fucking beautiful song

  • i think i have attributed to the 1,000,000 views on this video

  • Awesome!

  • the piano at 5:12 <33333

  • I wonder how many dicks will shoot themselves in the foot and not listen to Iver again because they're "Popular". Possessive twats.

  • he still rips my heart apart in the most beautiful way, releasing ribbons and gold and bits of reflecting glass. I love this cover, so emotional and true, like all of Bon Iver's music.

  • 121 people have ZERO taste in amazing music

  • So what there are some newer fans, you should be happy Bon Iver are finding successful!

    Shut the fuck up and enjoy the music.

  • @motherfuckingjedi success*

  • Ali G?

  • Assuming all the likes are kills and the dislikes are deaths, this video has a KD of 94.39! lol

  • Thumbs up if it doesn't matter when you knew Bon Iver, but that you do and that they change your life with every single song.

  • something about the chorus that bothers me...too shreaky...other than that. brilliant

  • Great cover by a great artist. One of the best around at the moment. Raw talent like this should never be over looked. No effects, heavy EQ or studio tricks. One man and his piano. Love it.

  • the stupidity of some of these comments alarms me.

  • Loved the song before too, but got goosebumps when I saw his raw emotions in this vid. Wonderful.

  • Oh God, this song is making me cry, but it's making me feel better.

  • As happy as I am for Justin Vernon, I'm a bit nostalgic for when this video only had around 3,000 views. It just felt more personal and special.

  • love this talent

  • "i'll close my eyes, then i wont see

    the love you dont feel

    When you're holding me"

  • I love how much this video focuses on the piano. Makes it so much easier to try and learn this. Not that I'll ever come close to performing it like this ridiculously talented man.

  • AWESOME.. just brilliant. love it.

  • the piano is just brilliant.

  • i like hip hop , but Bon Iver Adele , artist like that sld just be heard by everyone talent like this gets overlooked and i hate that, why isnt he bigger

  • goose skin...

  • i knew bon iver before the grammys.. but that doesnt matter.. it only matters that hes actually being appreciated for his awesome music. stop trying to claim you knew bon iver before anyone else, noone cares

  • Damn youtube must want me to listen to this song!

  • :O Dios Mio Que Voz Tan Hermosaa ^^

  • sexy from head to paw <3

  • I just want to give a big shout-out to all those who knew Bon Iver before the rest of us. Not only do you understand and appreciate the music more than anyone else you are also immeasurably cooler! a.k.a (stop posting such dry comments)

  • @pscandalous dont try to be a hipster. <3 lol

  • @pscandalous im bad at this. are you joking?

  • Comment removed

  • Proud to say that I've known Bon Iver and their music waaay before the Grammy's etc.

  • Just gave me the chills

  • God dammit I'm in love.

  • This song is so beautiful. <3

  • Yeah I just found out about Bon Iver by YouTube suggestions.

    Ah, love them. <3

  • i fancy him. and his ability to play this on piano. Its a beautiful piece, and no matter how hard i try it will never sound as amazing as this. . .

  • Stop hating on people new to Iver.. This world is filled enough already with backwards people.. besides as an artist and musician I am sure he is more then happy with the world hearing his sound. His music is pure raw emotion and its beautiful and goes deep.

  • @stabbingarttodeath I agree with this comment. I only really started listening to Justin in Summer 2011 when I looked up lyrics that someone had posted online, I thought they were beautiful. Then I heard him singing and it was one of those rare moments where I was really happy to be alive just to hear such wonderful music. Don't hate people just because they found Bon Iver "late." Be happy that they have a good ear and good taste! Peace to all.

  • @stabbingarttodeath It goes deep like my dick

  • Wow. He really brings this song to a new level of heartwrenching. Its beautiful.

  • this song makes me cry

  • omg im in love with this song and his voice. this made my day

  • like si vienes por Mox! :)

  • Priceless .

  • excelente

    

  • Out of all the covers of this song.. This is by far the best one. I have loved this guy ever since I heard him sing the first word of this song.

  • Hermosa!

  • he should've won that brit, no doubt about it

  • I got dumped yesterday. I hope this song helps me deal with my broken heart. If you lost the love of your life, let this help with the pain.

  • Comment removed

  • @richjasonjones i hope ull get over it soon..be faithful that life s so unpredictable for us not to lie in grieve more than we re supposed to..love s supposed to make us happy...its made of two...when it happens its so hard..we all know what its like to be heartbroken..thats why pls don t ever stop yourself from going , nor developing your uniqueness. you ll love again.soon.

  • @richjasonjones hahaha, oohhh broken hearts of the teenager. i know exactly how you feel right now because i am somewhat in the same position.. i wasnt dumped but i missed my chance and seriously need to get over it before im consumed

  • i cant believe that lana del rey won best intrenational over justing :( but he doesnt do it for the awards he does it for his love of music, thats just so evident listening to all of his amazing pieces

  • Good god this is sad

  • Been listening to Bon Iver since way before the Grammy's and proud of it. Amazing voice

  • @seth2386 amazing is the best word for it lol. It is so rare for a man to have such a high range in his voice, makes you have a deeper respect for him....

  • For lack of a better word, amazing. His voice (this song especially) just strikes an indescribable cord in my heart. Justin Vernon's voice has made me weak since 2009.

  • @beeheartsu is it cool if i second that

  • Goodness those grace notes.

  • marry me <3

  • Julia Child reincarnated

  • Thumbs up if you knew Bon Iver since a very long time.

    Anyway, the most beautiful song by Bon Iver remains "the wolves"... brilliant.

  • @AlisInterrail So true, The wolves is a masterpiece!

  • @sarajawi92 And so is Justin Vernon...

  • @AlisInterrail thumbs up if you're a giant hipster douche. I KNEW HIM FIRST OMG I MUST BE COOLER THAN YOU!

  • @jubz777 I never said I'm cooler than you. You just said it. Anyway, I am deeply sorry if you felt offended by what I wrote: unlike yours, my primary intention wasn't to offend.

  • @AlisInterrail Does it matter if you've known him for a long time? I think most people are just here for his great music and voice, and not because they have been a fan for him for a long time..

  • @AlisInterrail Stop being such a hipster. Your not cool because you found Justins music before a lot of people. The important thing is that a lot of people found out about him and can enjoy his music.

  • @bananeskit OH MY.. please STOP accusing me. You all of course didn't get the meaning of what I wrote, just because you are so touchy!

    Of course knowing Bon Iver before he became "famous" doesn't make me better than anyone else! Maybe, before accusing someone, people should try to understand what they read, and not to read just what they're expecting to read, just because they're a little bit "spring loaded". Come on.

  • Comment removed

  • @AlisInterrail I agree! Many have told me no! "The wolves is not the greatest!" But the ending is an experience.

  • Losing to Bruno Mars. I'm switching the channel over now.

  • Somebody hurt this man bad  so beautifull

  • this is an insult to Bonnie.....she should sue.......SNL made fun of this guy for a reason.....terrible

  • @lakeobilt1 SNL made fun of him because that's what they do. At the end if the show, Timberlake held a sign that read "I Heart Bon Iver"

  • so relaxing.

  • he must have a following---how else could he afford those skull caps

  • justin timberlake sounds better doing bon iver

  • @iceaxe56 wrong betch

  • Listening to songs just makes me want to break down and cry feels like as if he is singing to me this songs justs melts my heart

  • my first time listening to him. reminds me of Dallas Green.

  • ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.......­

  • @tejaspics go back listening to flo rida!! :O

  • It just said Nick of so i clicked on it thinking it was the epic meal time guy

  • all these people bitching about his music going mainstream need to shut up. hes an amazingly talented artist that was bound to get noticed eventually. this will not change him

  • I love this, but at from like 2:30 I realised he reminded me of Cleveland Jr's singing voice, in the Cleveland show hahaha

  • I didn't know who Bon Iver is until the Grammys. Then i tried to search for their song and i kinda thought they were bad but then i heard this cover and boom....ARTIST(check)

  • wow! shivers...i was listening to the bonnie raitt version for the first time and someone commented that this guy did a better job, and well...he does. i've never even heard of him before, but soon as he opened his mouth i was covered in goosebumps! AMAZING! can't wait to explore his own music :)

  • Noooooooo.. I dont want them to become mainstream. Mainstreamism is the bane of most good music :((

  • bonny bear ;)

  • this is wonderful

  • @m1r1t1n1 and @OnlyOmari meant to comment on a different vid that wasn't Can't Make You Love Me. Youtube acting wonky.

  • I would've have given him a shot but he collaborated with Kanye West so White Butler can jam to this crap! Will take Jeff Buckley over this crap and it's not even close. No respect for rappers and anyone who is desperate to work with them.
