@BonIverSUCKS You must feel proud naming your channel "BonIverSUCKS" and then going around hating on all of the Bon Iver songs, you foolish douchebag.
@airmiami - He said in an interview it is spelled that way on purpose. He didn't want it to be babies or baby's, because that would neglect the point of the song, so it had to be Babys to encompass what he wanted to get across :)
This is the most comforting, magnificent, and plain beautiful song that may exist. It really makes you feel like you're holding a precious, newborn baby, and that all the problems in your life aren't as bad as it could be.
@BonIverSUCKS You moan about people being really sad for being on "every bon iver video", yet you are too. If you don't like his music then fair enough, that's fine. However, it is not fine to comment on every single video dedicated to his music that I have looked at today slating his music. If you don't like him, then here's a thought - why don't you type something ELSE into youtube?
Go get a life other than bashing people who are 100000x more talented than you are or ever will be.
You have no idea the effect music like this can change someones opinion on life. It changed mine to the point where I didn't want to kill myself. Which was more than therapy or medicine could ever do.
beautiful song, beautiful video....i had never heard it before, i was just trying to find the song from the Miller Genuine Draft advert, and i found this. because i hadn't heard the full thing at first I have to admit i found that the piano dragged on a bit, but now i find it really lovely, like PaulJamesJenson said in the best rated comment, it's like a dream song!
i am a huge bon iver fan, my fav song is re stacks! i like most of his songs except woods and this song just because the constant piano can get annoying, it actually pains my ears cuz its so repetitive. but i still love u justin vernon! bon iver rocks my socks!
i reckon 2:11 is perfect, a big drum beat really wouldn't fit the song and in my opinion i don't think the song is supposed to fit into normal song standards if you get what i mean it's completely different from almost everything out there and i love it even more for it :D
Has no one here heard of Steve Reich or Philip Glass? John Cage maybe? For all you fans of post-whatever, check out where that music came from. This is basically the first 5 minutes of "Music for 18 Musicians" with a break and vocals.
Cobblekid, are you actually using the Mariah Carey defense? Well shit, let's just all cover Beatles songs for eternity. I was actually trying to defend the song from the people saying "it would be better if it was Explosions in the Sky." It's not supposed to have loud drums and three guys dicking around on a guitar with delay. And go listen to the first 5 minutes of Mf18M and you'll understand more clearly the "significance" of my statement.
Ah boi. Thank goodness for the break and vocals. I'm not the hugest fan of minimalism. John Cage bothers me with his 4 minutes 'silence' piece where the musicians are in the play position but don't actually play anything.
But I do appreciate that Bon Iver explores a range of styles though.
Drums should have come in with a big boom 2 minutes in with a huge chorus. It had a perfect build up but 2:11 is a let down. Could have made it powerful.
you are all about smashing some bon iver, aren't you? i don't mind if someone doesn't like a particular song and comments on that one song but on every bon iver video you seem to be there saying negative things...why keep listening if you don't like it?....just my opinion for what it's worth.
@Blackhammer99 i saw a video of justin performing this live and he actually does play it the entire time. it was pretty damn impressive to be honest, the whole song morphs into something other worldly by the time he finishes.
its a really wonderful song. im really glad he won the grammys.

cd1400 2 years ago 2
I play the piano.
You right though, I would have to like hearing piano to know how difficult it was to play.
This IS annoying though.
The notes are dissonant to each other, especially when the melody starts, and repeated for far too long.
This isn't difficult to play, no one in their right mind would sit there and play two notes with their right hand for 5 minutes.
It is most likely recorded and then duplicated to fit the length of the song.
