Bon Iver - Wisconsin

[LisaErinBrown]

<3 -from milwaukee.

[djosephj]

Puts me to sleep.

[PureCornbread]

THumbs up for Wisconsin!!

[JFoham]

Bon Iver > everything else

[ItsHotYo]

i'm from wisconsin.... but the BODEANS are where its at!! they would rock this dude under the table

[Legoman0323]

you better not take that grammy away from skrillex, his music kicks ur asses

[DrunkenLeprechaunPro]

@Legoman0323

I agree that skrillex probably deserved the grammy but I mean.. come on! Adele won most of them... Grammy's are pretty much a joke. I accept that Bon Iver got it instead... cuz his music is simply beautiful :)

[benwalpole95]

@Legoman0323 HA you fagggot

[evet45]

thank you Nikki M for making me appreciate Bon Iver even more.

[EverettEliz]

I like those shelter commercials :)

[chefjanet2k]

looking forward to their performance tonight on snl...

[ItsWateverProduction]

i heart wisconsin

[NinjaDrummer215]

This isnt my favourite kind of music but it is really peaceful, nice to fall asleep to...



[TheDeviantGia]

It almost hurts to listen to such perfection.

[moderjoker]

Arcade Fire is Bon Iver's daddy

[stottieC]

bon iver is a great influence on my own music

[TheAshleySmrcina]

I just.. adore this song. I'm pretty much the only one who knows of it in my group of friends. I wish I had more friends who had this beautiful taste of music in them.

[s0phiepowe]

bon iver is seriously underrated, but that preferable, because people nowadays probably cant appreciate music such as this, especially with songs written in two seconds then autotuned, or songs full of advertising in them existing on the same planet.

[Thatmusictool]

@s0phiepowe I disagree, he's one of the most popular folk artists of our time.

How is he underrated?

[CraigChristism]

@Thatmusictool of who's time? we cannot forget about James Taylor, or Carol King or John Denver or Arlo guthrie... I LOVE Bon Iver... but we can't forget the origins :D

[Thatmusictool]

@CraigChristism I didn't say the best, I said popular.

I haven't heard any Folk artist's name thrown around nearly as much as Bon Iver

[HollieLou94]

im not religious...but i imagine this is what it would sound like to ride the escalator to peace. This song drowns out the background noise that is life and takes me to a new place. A peaceful, simple place.

[WomanVersionOfJesus]

@HollieLou94 That's a beautiful explanation.

[JorL1209]

Air my room out of weed, or turn off my fan to hear this. Bon Iver wins. Good concert where he went to college in Eau Claire last night. Blew my fuckin' mind.

[sugga57]

I had the luck to see Bon Iver last night in Eau Claire, WI. I can honestly say that I have never heard so much emotion put into a concert. He was playing for his home last night and you could tell.

[SuperCosbySweater]

I'm from Wisconsin. This is not a coincidence. I win.

[soup2684]

Extremely overrated. Can pretty much guarantee most of the people here are either music majors, hipsters, or both

[SuperCosbySweater]

@soup2684 lolokcool

[MeliiLynn]

@soup2684 wtf bon iver's songs are beautiful!

[larrythompsonsequel]

@soup2684

Nope. Just a regular person, not invented in any particular stereotype....just love good music. That's all.

[jamreaper]

@soup2684 I have never played a musical note in my life, and am heavily into rock, the most mainstream of mainstream.

I only feel pity for you, that you cannot experiance what I do when I listen to this. But hey, you probably enjoy life a hell of a lot more than me, so I dont pity you all that much.

[cruellights]

Bon Iver is an important source of inspiration for me. I've listened to every song more than 200 times and I listen to it every day and every night. The records are very emotional for me and most of the songs are so touching and heavy in my ears, just huge and epic music.

But this song is too hard for me. Listened to it for the first time, started to cry because it's just too beautiful.

Mr. Vernon, man, you're a genius.

[MarisaShorty]

@cruellights If I could favourite your comment, I honestly would.

[12park12]

@cruellights you may be interested to hear his early solo stuff then. /watch?v=j3vrhdAWLMg there is more on the playlist :)

[42mcderf]

im from wisconsin! :)

[tylerpierce1999]

Thumbs Up If You Live In Wisconsin! GO CHEESEHEADS!!!

[StarrySuprisee]

I wish i'd checked this out sooner. this music is addicting.

[starcon6]

This is on this album? Ive listened to that album on repeat and never came across this. Where is it?

[Scottbrown97]

@starcon6 It's the iTunes bonus track

[LeidyA123]

Yay, this is wisconsin(:

[badgernation74]

I was just thinking about how much i hate winter in wisconsin. this reminds me that not everything about it is a never ending frozen hell

[SamMillerLite]

this song makes me think of roaring bonfires, pure unblemished snow on a winter morning, and the stars at night.....

[hsmalstig8]

Bon Iver went to my middle school, he had the same math teacher as me and whent to the same high school and but the most special thing is that his song skinny love was wrote as a poem in my 8th grade english class!

[NutsInaBlanket]

@hsmalstig8 I find that hard to believe, seeing as his name is Justin Vernon, not Bon Iver.

[Farnianlemon]

@hsmalstig8 Thats not true man. He said he wrote those lyrics and recorded the same day.

[ThatGuyNamedTim]

@hsmalstig8 So the band as a whole went to your middle school and did all that stuff?

[Jeremyrodney]

This song just sounds like Wisconsin. Dark, bleak, beautiful, cold and warm rolled into one.

[annacabana12]

I was born and raised in Wisconsin, and went to school in Eau Claire. Bon Iver makes me very proud. :)

[thunderboy57]

@annacabana12 i live in eau claire.

[cche16]

As a Canadian, I never cared for Wisconsin until now. I never thought much of it but after hearing this, you can't help but feel something for a place that can inspire a song this breathtaking. I imagine it looks like paradise just from hearing this beautiful ode.

[94juliebean]

i kinda wanna live in wisconsin now!!. im from michigan :D

[CreatorOfSunshine]

wisconsin is a fun word to say :)

[Dratoon]

@JerkyRonson

sorry, I have no idea what you guys are talking about but.. this caught my eye.

Did you actually just refer to the Youtube message board (which everyone knows is convoluted and annoying at the best of times), on the internet, as the real world?

Really?

[ChuckNorrisRulez333]

Makes me proud to live in Wisconsin...

[mosspower1]

@JerkyRonson Yeah you can say whatever you want, but you dont walk in to McDonalds and scream out that you dont like cheeseburgers right? Then why do you have to do it here? .. douche

[mosspower1]

@JerkyRonson but.. Why does we have to hear about what you think? If thats the way you feel then ok. But can you keep it to yourself?

[xLoudPipes]

you must be a very very unhappy and jealous person to make an account named boniverSUCKS.

[xLoudPipes]

@gaetikke

you have to buy i special album with wisconsin on it !

[Dissonance1634]

YEAH WISCONSIN! I love sharing the same home state as a musical God.

[swiffskillz]

@Dissonance1634 you and me both!...its hard to put into words how i feel about my home state. Happily american.

[gaetikke]

Why isn't this on my album??

[Epykosis]

@gaetikke Fairly sure this only came out on one of the earlier editions

[MGS4rules51]

@BonIverSUCKS fuck you

[DJbuulOFFICIAL]

@BonIverSUCKS has closed his account...

[ShakeBakeAndSkate]

This @BonIverSUCKS guy is just wanting to see your reactions... stop reacting and he will stop.

[EoinAnderson77]

Stop hating on BonIverSucks, he's one of the most successful trolls I've ever encountered. He feeds off your comments

[uhhguy]

@EoinAnderson77 Exactly. A good troll makes people spit fire. Don't pay the troll toll kids.

[MrHaydenjh]

@BonIverSUCKS Ok obviously its not like this hes expressing the way his experience in Wisconsin was like also the picture is a very deep throught of his that is also why his lyrics are really understood he likes to express them in a way only the people that truely love the music can understand. If you have ever seen any of his interviews it talks about how he was at a cabin called "Dads Place" where Bon Iver was truely made. Thats where they made the album "For Emma Forever Ago"

[MrHaydenjh]

"Some people feel like they don't deserve love. They walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past." -Christopher McCandless

[AsheeBizzle93]

Lets just get this dumb fuck kicked off Youtube so we can go back to enjoying the greatness of Bon Iver :)

block him ! - - -> @BonIverSUCKS

[SuperPacker85]

@BonIverSUCKS shut up you fucktard i dont hear you writing about wisconsin! so you obviously have no life cuz you made a youtube acount to hate on someone and you prolly comment on every bon iver song! GET A LIFE DUMB ASS!!!!!!!

[noahfan101]

[LegionsOfLegends]

[gettindonimos]

@BonIverSUCKS

buddy, why are you here?

[AmorBravo]

this song alone has helped me endure so much.

[landscapebe]

wtf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have this record for years, still listening to it every week, and I never heard this song....

[lightitupo]

@landscapebe its from the new album not from for emma, forever ago

[landscapebe]

@lightitupo ow thanks, but I can't seem to find it, is it @ the end?

[lightitupo]

sorry its a bonus itunes from for emma. i thought it was from the new one cause there all city names. my bad!

[bainzeyboy]

Bon iver helped me through every single one of my GCSE's

[Cheddar420ful]

@bainzeyboy It probably really annoys an artist when their music is relegated to studying. The same goes for Sigur Rós.

[ImmaStarx]

bon iver needs to be knighted or something

[UFOIST]

Why, oh WHY have I never heard of Bon Iver until now?. I'll mark this day as a musical milestone. "For Emma, Forever ago" is now on the top of my must have list : )

[arndell13]

my fav song on the whole album

[iheartcomedy2009]

that was wisconsin, that was yesterday. beaut. 

[juliaisafilmbuff123]

This must be what Heaven sounds like.

[F00LSG0LD215]

@juliaisafilmbuff123 No this is what Wisconsin Sounds Like On a Peaceful Autumn Morning, Leaves Falling, Lake Roaring, The Sky Shining Reflecting Off Lake Michigan For A Beautiful Sunrise. Justin Just Knows How To Capture All Of It's Glory In Song. HOW HE DOES IT My Guess The Good Beer.

[ITipCowsWorldWide]

@juliaisafilmbuff123 No...it's what Wisconsin sounds like.

[Pizuzuzimmer]

@juliaisafilmbuff123

If you've got a really mundane vision of heaven, I guess that might be so.

[adzyhere]

the best thing about this groups songs is that they create a certain mood and help you forget all the shit thats going on in your life. Love this band.

[BustrexxMusic]

now i have nothing that i can keep

[neoninagirl]

every place i go, i take another place with me.
