Bon Iver - Holocene (Official Music Video)

[combustercan]

Beautiful song, & what an amazing playground this boy has, love it : )

[BuriedSoul89]

The moment at 04:34 when he throws the stone and it becomes a bird. GOOSEBUMPS *__*

[TheDarkwolf148]

Damn, he sure can skip a rock.

[nickyspr]

Iceland <3

[LaLaFirefly5]

now i just wanna grab my camera and go there!!! now!

[gustavoanmosura]

aburridisimooooooooo este rollo islandia ya esta muy hecho no?

[kaheeza]

bravoooooooooo!!!

[Balli270]

watching this video really made me proud of being Icelandic...

[sunshineguy5623]

where was this music video shot? anyone know?

[harrimi]

@sunshineguy5623 my guess is Iceland looking at the vocanic landscape.

[IanMFBetts]

and at once u knew i was not magnificent. i love that lyric

[jsal19]

i dont get it

[gnarlyincubus]

People complain that you can't understand what he's saying, but they can understand what the fuck Nicki Minaj and Skrillex's songs are saying?

Yeah that's what I thought.

[jministro]

@gnarlyincubus

another great example, where nothing of that really matters is Sigur Rós

they've created their 'own' language..

and if they all could see it without filters, they would certainly love it

[linaapiee]

This is beautiful.

Listening to this and RainyMood.

Definitely what I needed tonight.



[donjaundemichael]

Holy FUCK is this ever awesome.



[TREVOR1900]

I remember seeing Justin Vernon back in like 06 or 07 at the House of Rock in EC playing slide guitar. The guy has talent. Makes me proud to live in Eau Claire.

[Fiantum]

And once I knew I was not magnificent.

[Confuciousays01]

this song makes you appreciate the world

what does nicki minaj make you appreciate?

her panties?

bitch please

[Ourstepsealfate]

Seen a lot of criticism on his music recently that they don't understand what all the hype is about, Bullshit. People also can't make out one word he says? well i've got two words for that. Busta Rhymes.

[0326hkim]

my gosh, that SNL skit impersonating bon inver was right on the dot.

[clayguy33]

I wouldn't have dropped the F bomb, but then again, I'm not an amazing song writer.

[tbdehart]

@clayguy33 when you see it you'll shit brix

[Mentallyenabled]

While listening to this song and staring blankly at the screen I realized that the rocks grow taller at 5:25 and I shit my pants.

[tomhodder13]

LATITUDE 2012!

[iloveyormumaspie]

@tomhodder13 yeah boi

[elmoswilly]

I think I might try cutting my wellies in half and wearing them as shoes.

[Nesoja]

Beautiful

[parallelgal]

yesssssssss can't wait to see these at Latitude 2012 :)

[AgreeableDAN]

i love how these comments aren't full of people arguing... THAT"S THE POWER OF BON IVER

[themonsteronearth]

GIVE. ME. THAT. SWEATER.

[Tucknrollgrampa]

Yeah! Hipster music!

[IntriguingLife7]

This was a highly spiritual experience for me. Can you digg it?

[szaaabo1]

Bon Iver in the studio with Sean Carey:

/watch?v=4Xh2TFXNr68&context=C­38429abADOEgsToPDskLX4RX-AdUUm­kk_sIyXap1P

[ishandchipss]

"And at once I knew, I was not magnificent." that line hits me every time.

[lopatamila]

Iceland :-)

[TheRockPost]

White Butler is into it!

[OpFlop]

I honestly get shivers every time I listen to this song.

[commercialpilot8]

what is the grass/stone house he came out of called at 1:19? Is there a specific name?

[jenfur210]

Bon Iver is amazing...this video makes me feel like the world could be a better place. Thank you.

[LulJam]

sweater looks really fucking scratchy

[nick10165]

Steve's kid.

[thenewval]

Did anyone else notice at 5:25 parts of the rock formation start to get taller, as if he suddenly has the power to raise them. Maybe he is magnificent after all!

[fsagagadfgsag]

Last night me and my girl went to the top of a hill that overlooked the city. We sat in my car and this song came on. While this song was playing, she explained to me how much she missed her best friend and began crying. So I put my arm around her and she cried on my shoulder. As i wiped her tears from her face i began to realize how powerful this song is. Thank you Bon Iver.

[ilovejustinvernon]

@fsagagadfgsag that was one of the most beautiful things ever. thanks man

[bballer191]

Damn this makes me want to be a kid again.. Adulthood is overrated.

[PolitcalIslam]

@bballer191 Alcohol? Regression therapy? There are ways…

[beethovengirl8]

Thumbs up if you fall asleep to this song

[thejakel229]

which rainymood there are like 20

[mockfry24]

I have seen a ton of music videos (I grew up in the late 80's and 90's) but this is the most beautiful one i've ever seen. The perfect blend of cinematography and haunting melody.

[thenewval]

According to National Geographic, the video was filmed on Iceland's east side, near the region of Vik.

[fobt90]

To me this song is a masterpiece. I absolutely love it!

[iSEXism]

I am so jealous of this boy

[MasterExploder61]

A feral cat of truth and divine sits on my porch and I gladly nourish it with the integrity and implausible beam of terrestrial aurora from the hats of clouds I grasp of the pinky and the thumbs. Our broadness of the orb thus created by magical balls of fire dream of a revolution in mind and in sound.

[Jeepyismylove]

Put this record on. Place body on floor. Stare at the ceiling. Float to it.

[bigtitsmgee1]

i dont know what i am more amazed at this songs beauty or the fact that 412 ppl disliked it

[Bird47xBox]

"I love this" says the kid stuck inside the classroom...

[Bielacerda]

this is jake from the dark tower series .. :B

[FuzzyBeast1]

this song is minecraft in real life sadly the boy only has a stick

[OneManAndHisToaster]

@FuzzyBeast1 AHAHAH funny ass nerdy comment :D Loved it! BTW, Holocene kicks ass! At least 1 million views, from present video, are mine!

[randomgenre]

Oh my god this took my breath away... someone please tell me where this was shot!!!! Iceland??

[phillipdennis]

@randomgenre Yep! Iceland =) I would LOVE to visit. It looks so beautiful.

[Berglindmh]

This is definantly Ísland ! My second home !

[mayaisboredrightnow]

Wait, at 4:33 did he throw a stone and then it turned into a bird?? Please tell me what happened!!

[ilovejustinvernon]

Towers video is up, people are saying it's this little boy when he grew to older age. Don't know if that's true, love these videos none the less.

[kyle40z]

My new love!

[DearDiana23]

Oh wow, another Sigur Ros!

[ilovejustinvernon]

@DearDiana23 Listen to more Bon Iver, try for emma, a forever ago- nothing like Sigur Ros

[bendriedger09]

this song is about realizing how insignificant we all are in this world, and once you truly accept that this world is a much better place

[azteka2013]

What instrument is used at 3:54 in the back?

[mitchellme21]

talk about walking bear foot in wisconsin



[twenty3number1]

I really WANT to like this whole genre... I enjoy a lot of bands like this musically... I just can't understand a word they're saying.

[ilsi2011]

410 people don't want to be relaxed

[hyghiaumtym]

Play Holocene in one tab.

Play rainymood in another.

Thank me later.

Thumbs up so everyone can see it, try it and drift away to somewhere they've never been before :)

[puracaxa]

[yogakeybd]

I got chilled... That's it. 

[LonelyTheWhale]

I cried the first time. And the second. 

[27hfd]

Great video from a band that has created a sound and style all their own.

I looked up the lyrics and they make little sense to me but I'll always enjoy this song.

[ahurius]

i think of sigur ros right now

[lucigluglu25]

the most beautiful song I've ever hear in all my LIFEEE

it makes me feel like ... you know happy and..

in home.

[wickedcrickets]

I listen to this literally every day o_o

[alyogi]

Beautiful! : )

[MyPenWalked]

That sweater seems extremly itchy.

[LedZepp1193]

like if you were a fan of bon iver long before he was on the grammys....remember for emma, forever ago...and know that his actual name is justin vernon....

[Torep185]

@LedZepp1193 What a shitty ploy for attention. May you burn in hell hipster

[LedZepp1193]

@Torep185 hahaha clearly mad someone discovered great music before you. get over it. and making an overall judgement of someone's lifestyle after reading their youtube comment which was one sentence. your comment is unbelievable, made me laugh. thank you.

[reallynoreasonatall]

@LedZepp1193 Music isn't about who discovered it first, it's about who it touches, always. I'm glad Bon Iver was on the Grammys, his music deserves to be heard by everyone. Don't you agree, oh big fan?

[emirss]

this song makes me drift away to a better place.

[mehidalgo18]

I have a headache...but I cant stop listening to music...Im that masochist. I just get bored and annoyed without music, so I try to listen to soothing and relaxing music tried with classical and didnt help me or calm me down but his music did. I liked his songs. he is very relaxing and god knows how much I love relaxing and soothing music. glad he won a grammy he indeed deserved it.

[pondexter23232]

Like if you came hear after watching the grammys!

[DeeDubVlog]

Where The Wild Things Are meets Lord of the Rings lol. Such a good video.

[berloonable]

This is probably the best all-time video on I've ever watched. The music and visual went so well together, I melted.

[Bamac95]

just out of interest, is this filmed in Scotland?

[phillipdennis]

@Bamac95 It was filmed in Iceland. I would LOVE to visit because it looks so beautiful. 

[StreamingAndPosting]

@phillipdennis scotland !

[phillipdennis]

@StreamingAndPosting No...Iceland! Filmed around the region of Vik.

[Bamac95]

@phillipdennis Cheers, thought it was something along the lines of that. Looked like Scotland until ice-bergs. Yeh, stunning place.

[swanald01]

I sit here watching this video chillen with the friends and reminisicing about life

[alxxxb24]

This video is breathtaking. The artist is a genius. He cannot help that people appreciate this genius, and therefore his increasing fame can be seen as a natural byproduct of people recognizing genius when they hear it (and see it).It should not be seen as conforming to what is "popular," because his character remains: he is not vain, overly self-promoting, nor do I even believe he is comfortable with the amount of fame he has. "too hipster" ..can't find it cool? Not sure what you're hearing.

[sobati816]

Kids steezin' it up at a young age! Thanks to Bon Iver's contemplative music

[OneCrazyGuy11]

4:53 "I can see Russia from my house!"

[BohemianConspiracy]

@OneCrazyGuy11 ...to Putine's delight...

[Vote4Pedro6425]

I want his jacket.

[Cluffinator]

I'm going to abandon all of my children alone in Iceland. Hunger Games anyone?

[nicoletaylorx33]

like this if the saturday night live beyonce skit brought you here!!!!!

[OneCrazyGuy11]

I just discovered my new favorite genre... hipster country :O

[FirstFlabbergasted]

@OneCrazyGuy11 Its alternative. :D

[OneCrazyGuy11]

sounds like you've been fooled.

[FirstFlabbergasted]

@OneCrazyGuy11 Odd.

[FirstFlabbergasted]

@OneCrazyGuy11 Actually, its folk, You sir are correct :p

[1020AngelFire]

this song is on new moon or twilight

[atomi62]

beautiful...the boy reminds me of my sweet nephew :)

[JessicaSheherlis]

your the type of artist who will be remembered for years to come..the type of artist John Lennon would listen to and be proud to hear that music still " lives on " in some ways in 2012...

keep going strong..your music is moving..and growing..

[scooterboyjay94]

where was this shot?

[MrBeesknees95]

@scooterboyjay94 iceland methinks

[atomi62]

@MrBeesknees95 It seems the director was influenced by a great icelandic band as well, Sigur Ros...I highy recommend their music&videos, they are magical...

[58shadesofgray]

I was searching for Bon Jovi and accidentally clicked Bon Iver... Interesting :P

[yosman08]

@58shadesofgray and...

[XLent94]

I wanna know where the kid got his shirt! I wanna have one!:)

[CIancyy]

Forgot how good this song is.

[jules1987a]

Bon Iver + Jacko Hooper = 2012 a good musical year

[Hideaway122]

@jules1987a good shout on Mr Hooper, saw one of his videos the other day myself, great young talent

[metman0705]

4:35 he threw a rock and it turned into a bird....woah

[AddisonAndrews]

Watching this while drunk is fucking mesmerizing!

[sobati816]

Kids got so much swag...im proud for him

[Jasonx5]

Audible THC

[gqtis]

this is such a beautiful song

[MrIhatemogz]

So that's not the coolest sweater? I want one lol

[deesmateen]

I never knew Icelandic people were hobbits

[Sarahhhlove1]

@deesmateen it's a young boy..

[broadcastHim]

1st-where was this filmed? it's magnificent. someone! quick! upload the lyrics before I register "shake and bake"

[JNzioka]

wtf is this hipster bullshit

[TheBradcake]

Kids got a sick sweater

[trrasico]

at least bon iver's music videos are good

[MrSean369]

I really want to know the places where they filmed. Be amazing to visit I bet...

[fonesmart123]

@MrSean369 Im guessing either, Ireland, scotland , or New Zealand

[brookefan4ever]

@fonesmart123 Iceland, actually.

[AvaPozen]

This song makes me want to stand under the shower.

[252music252]

beautiful.



[808sandWeed]

im not really sure what this song is about but i listened to it and felt endorphins rush to my brain

[TheSteelbeaver]

that kid isn't even in America! He's either in northern europe or iceland, but it is dank as shit

[Scouty208]

2:38 That kid's really good at skipping stones.

[nickdfoxy]

Propofol works just as well as this song, and with the same side-effects.

[TheWarWasp]

I can't stop listening to this song. About 6 months ago I would have been like "Bon who?" But now I can't get enough. Nobody writes music as soothing as this guy.

[ErgoCognitoSum]

Soothing video. Soothing song.

[neverfalter1989]

The fact that VEVO wasn't on this made me very happy!

[Thin1Thin2Thin3]

@neverfalter1989 Actually... It's sad, because it would get more recognision with vevo.

[thepurpleeskimo3256]

I don't know, I love these music videos and I love the lyrics but I just do not like Bon Iver's music.

[smdubbb]

Check out my bon iver cover? it would mean alot!:)
