Bon Iver "Creature Fear" Chicago 4.10.08

[benjaminjhares]

I was teased by your blouse/ Spit out by your mouth-favorite line

[milsonfsg]

What is that guitar?

[britishcolumbianclub]

haha i love those people in audience that yell positive things out

random guy: you're good!

Justin: YOU'RE good

[9tomtorres]

anyone know what guitar that is?!

[TehProdiqal]

i had headphones in at 1:56 and i looked behind me! i got scared

[newlyborn09]

poke at my soul why don't you

[LodiDodi333]

Wow I just had a god moment, needed it..thanks.:)



[joeydemaio]

pentatonic fits beautifully in this beginning...

[BasedOnFantasy]

I could listen to that solo in the beginning over and over again.

[Slappindabass95]

Does anyone want to tab the solo thing at the beginning and send it to me?

[shhmly]

Fuck me, this is gorgeous.

[MattBroniec]

Just amazing...

[sebbbey]

3 people are tone deaf

[nojob71]

If you're a fan of 'Creature Fear', this is one of the best versions out there. Justin's reverb session is epic... unfortunately, the few dozen people they were playin for had no idea what they were witnessing...

[Segura99]

and between us , this solo is giant

[Segura99]

another very underrated guitar player...

[mudbloodsrule]

Holy holy...

[jaybyrd570]

That guitar is beautiful

[epk8]

what an insanely musically talented bunch....if i were to meet them...i would probably cry coz they are just so amazing! their music is soooo soulful!!

[wantmohr]

I wonder if its possible to go to one of his concerts and not cry

[LooseFalcon]

So THIS is real music. I thought it had died off years ago...

[Razorback613]

This is the sound of genius.

[TROYAY]

The three people who voted down for this video should be shot.

[WeepingStarGazer]

Gah this boy must have some sad experiences. I mean honestly. His album name, "For Emma, Forever Ago" what did this girl do to him???

Anyways, Bon Iver is AMAZING. He deserves so much more than 36,293 views. He deserves more than Miley Cyrus has of her views, he deserves more than just about every person I've ever head on mainstream radiostations. Not only does he have a beautiful soulful voice, but watch his hands on that guitar! this boy has amazing talent.

[caatgunr]

@WeepingStarGazer true about bon iver he is not exposed but the hollywood they want britney and madonna to make them millions when there music is written by someone else and performed by other muscians and they lip sing every night disgusting

[MalcolmMcRae]

amazing.

haha "I was teased by your blouse. I was teas..ooooh"

2:35-2:47

[motownfreak15]

I love this song, but it's missing the juicy bass riff right before he sings "creature fear", which is pretty much my favorite part of the song.

Not bad, though. :P

[BrIeTaRdEd7]

i went to his consert last night

[AmorBravo]

Is it just me or does he fuck at 2:42. the lyrics go teased by your blouse.. spit out by your mouth. either he didnt say or he just mumbled that part. Great song

[DntActLikeIAintBeast]

....i was in the middle of writing the name of this song to learn to play on my guitar....and i heard that creepy ass voice and i actually jumped around thinking that some creep was in my house......but great song....i absolutely love chuck. and chuck and sarah. lol. i could not stop singing this song after i watched the episode. :)

[shellyLIKESdressup]

One of the very few artists who perform well live. Bon Iver is revolutionary.

[alucardlubu]

@shellyLIKESdressup they're super tight. i was so suprised to see how much of a band they've become. expectin to see just a man and a guitar but got this whole band experience. was amzing

[drocks122]

WTF that's just plain creepy fukin pervy ppl

[sarahuque]

What soulful white boys. My heart breaks a little every time I hear them. One of the most talented bands I've ever heard. And Justin's voice.... there are no words.

[adriantxcheng]

amazing, so very few artist these days are good at performing live.

[stickyriceninja]

I just jizzed a little.

[poopturd159]

alot

[djtripleight]

Eyes wide..jaw dropped. Brint!!!

[urlocalSAVAGE]

that's a nice guitar. His music is surreal.

[mathijsgitaar]

wtf am I paranoid or is there a voice from 1:56 - 1:59

"Hi, I wanna see you jump" ?

I love this song, one of my favourites from the album. At lowlands he was awesome!

[xander72802]

don't know if I would have heard that unless you mentioned it, but it sure sounds like that to me also

[Fuckmybum001]

fuck taht's creepy!

[eloretardo]

HAHA yeah I heard something like that too... kind of freaked me out too since I'm listening to this at 5 in the morning but I'm guessing it's the person filming it... or someone next to them?

[creaminitup]

i heard that too and i was listening alone at night in my headphones. SO CREEPY!!!

[jojobleh]

@mathijsgitaar

hahaha i was just closing my eyes to this and then heard him say that and was like "uuummm". 

[Patick478]

@mathijsgitaar yeah they say "so relatively fucked"

[raskid1992]

@mathijsgitaar no someone does say it. its kinda creepy. but GREAT band and GREAT song

[2010misc]

@mathijsgitaar he meant jump for the climax? the chorus bit? in the reocrding its much more pumping than here

[gigglydookie]

@mathijsgitaar i heard it too man! just a few years later :)

[EAZSE4]

@mathijsgitaar you arent paranoid.... Its called creature fear

[xMOE]

what did the guy from the crowd say at the begining?

[EoinMurMur93]

"You guys are good"

"no you're good"

[xMOE]

muchas graciaaas!

[michotto]

and he's hot for sure.

[muppetdoom]

God, that solo was just mind-blowing. Amazing.

[marcikuhn]

this song gives me the chills... its amazing!

[chillindlas]

my favorite song by him... one of the best choruses ive ever heard.

[TheMungamTOH]

rrrrrr goosebumps

[brandnewshoesfool]

i heard bon iver before i had seen any sort of picture of the lead man. i instantly thought a black guy was singing. that is not an insult, there's just so much soul in his singing. he could lead a gospel choir!

[clutchcrippler]

....so white people can't sing?

[brandnewshoesfool]

I didn't say that. I meant not usually with THIS much soul!

[stupidstupidpeople]

that's the first thing I said! so much soul..

[Exoteric01]

@brandnewshoesfool no offence taken (do not ajust your youtube viewer, i am black

[chimike19]

Does anybody know which music venue this is in?

[thedoc56]

wow this shit is amazing

[h4d3n27]

Madly in love with this song. Gorgeous.

[18lovingProduction]

He is so so amazing most stars are ok on stage and great in recording he is AMAZING on and off stage

I loved this song on Chuck so perfect and he is awesome here also

[dragyourhalo]

fuck. so good

[MLshelbs]

I love his voice. When he talks... I love how deep it is (: And, his singing voice is one of the most beautiful i've ever heard.

[Lewspade]

a perfect performance, I love it

[ilovemutemath]

sounds like feist's let it die at the beginning.

[cluedo1]

Isn't Justin Vernon better? ;)

[ilovemutemath]

That's a good question, I like both ALOT.

especiall feist, because she does covers, and when she does, it's amazing.

She can also write like no other, and she's not afraid to cover the Bee Gees, which makes her awesome. But Justin Vernon, with HIS writing, being so true, and not 'pretentious', makes him way more meaningful and I guess warmhearted. It's a hard call, although Feist is better live.

[Millonno]

nana amoah: great song

[JuicyFrucht]

its just so beautiful this song

[thereseleano]

hey, what guitar is he using?

[PillBaxton]

I'm not sure on the exact type, but I was watching a video and he brought it up. He bought it on e-bay, it was originally in an old sears catalog. I highly doubt they make them anymore.

[Quelarinha]

This is just amazing....love this song.

Come to PORTUGAL....please

[keflar5]

he switches so quickly and smoothly from different parts of his bodys voice that his songs are infuriating to try and sing right while being very exiting to sing

[stuffedman2]

this song at the eau claire show was amazing there was a total freak out at the end, justin broke three strings.

[thecircumference]

i wish there were actual tabs online and not bad interprtations.

[fablekeys]

I saw them play this song at the Rex theater. The harmonics in the solo fragments of this song will literally blow your mind wide open. It produced resonances in different parts of my body, I can't properly describe the effects.

[Lumsden20]

I like the solo. Proof that fast does not mean good.

[lordc0ntyb0ll0cks]

fantastic song but what was that solo about it was crap i can better with my arse

[jpkuckens]

if you can do better then why aren't there videos of you on youtube?

[lordc0ntyb0ll0cks]

because i dont have a web cam bon iver is awesome i am just saying that solo sucked

[jpkuckens]

haha okay. i just don't think the point was for him to just like shred a fast solo right there thats not his style

[OptionallySavage]

It was more like an Explosions In The Sky kind of technique; a crescendo rising out of a mess of noise, build up in tempo, then stop.

[Entropy37]

Yes. Generally Bon Iver doesn't seem to shoot for a solo with an approach of musicality, but rather goes for a more "expressionist" approach.

[OceanAndSilence]

solo's are all about technique, he has it

[lordc0ntyb0ll0cks]

solo's are about soul not just going for it and going too fast scraps

[OceanAndSilence]

i already knew that

[Questpeace]

I cannot wait to see him live.

[hendrixboi19]

my favourite song on the album
