Hi everyone, please check out my music. My facebook page is in the description. I'm about to release a Post-Rock/Alternative album. It would mean the world guy's :) Thanks
Im lying in my girlfriend arms whenever this song enters my ears.. I dont know which place it is.. But it's beautiful.. Finely beautiful... Yet less attractive than her... Bon Iver takes you to a new world... <3
I'm in my school's computer room with people surrounding me and Michicant hummed into my ears. Bon Iver can send chills down my spine even when I am in a sea of people.
@IsabelleHorler The content of the advert usually depends on what you've previously been searching for, or looking at on the internet. Something you're not telling us?
@FabledLegend11 bieber fever = GAYEST CATCH-PHRASE EVER. I cant believe that you (and now me) would even bring that little faggot-ass pussy's name in a Bon Iver playlist. BON IVER is EPIC!!!! Listening to this album helps me forget about the world I live in...
I'm going to be that girl for a second and ask if you can took a look at my version of this beautiful song! I'd really love some critiques if you have the time!
i would love to feel the emotions experienced in order to write this song. music = emotion. everyone = made of emotion. well, why doesn't everyone write music? instead of trying to express their emotion in other ways. same goes for any art. it goes so deep that at first, it can only be recognized by you, but if everyone else had views at the depths of art, they would be able to completely understand anyone. i guess.
This is my favourite song off of this album, it's perfectly composed. Unique sounds are progressively added throughout the song, each listen is more rewarding than the last. I get an uncomfortable wave of chills at 2:10 every single time, it's just his voice, and then suddenly everything jumps in to accompany him. It's like for a moment you feel like all is lost, everything is gone, then you get a blast of reassurance and hope. Excuse my cheesiness, but it's beautiful.
@CoolCreativeColor its a song about losing his virginity. I read that at one of his shows he mentioned that michicant was a "song about all the things you can't do in Michigan"- thus the title. the implications surface smoothly. makes this track all the more beautiful.
Some music is genuinely hard to share with others though, because what you have associated with a certain song or how much that song has helped you grow, others may look right past it. Like this song... I associate it with a girl that I love, she lives on the other side of the world. It bridges distance. Now to someone else that may mean nothing....
I can't believe it. I heard this song playing quietly in a bus in France, at first I thought my iPhone started playing this song accidently by itself. Then I checked my phone but No, the song was unexpectedly coming from the radio. I cannot believe that my favorite band is becoming more and more mainstream, and its hurts. Bon Iver was something that truly only I enjoyed, something just for me, as I have been following them since the publishment of their first album. Sharing Bon Iver hurts.
@PaPaPaSTAR i completely agree, when Birdy covered bon iver i was so angry, but then he deserves to be known. His music is all i listen to and it makes me so upset when people are unnecessarily rude. Bon Iver is beautiful and his music is beyond anything ever created before but he is so great people will find out about him. what worries me is that his music is a specific taste and if he became mainstream people would be rude about him
@PaPaPaSTAR I know how it feels. But. How do you think it feels for other people who don't like to share it either...you aren't the only one who has been listening to bon iver since forever ago. Really, all this time, you've always been sharing it with other people. Justin doesn't make his music just for you, not matter how it feels. Bon Iver has always been in the heart of more than one person. Now...it's reaching more. I'm happy for Bon Iver, and for the new people. And so you should be too.
There have been only three albums where i have liked all of the songs on that album. First, Continuum-John Mayer. Second, Stadium Arcadium-Red Hot Chili Peppers. Third, For Emma Forever Ago-Bon Iver..... I guess i will have to add this to that list
i love Bon Iver because his lyrics can be spun into whatever meaning you want them to, even if it isn't what they were meant to be. No one really knows how he finds his words, but I'm grateful he does. His music makes me calm when I'm stressed, stops my crying, and helps me move on and forget what hurts. It helps me.
Honestly, my favorite musician. And this one is my favorite song.
@bigmuffmama i do believe they probably each have their own hole in their asses. most people do. although you might want to check your anatomy books. this comes out of their hearts. (they, not he. you silly person)
addicted to this song!! cant stop listening to it for the life of me(: every morning when i get ready or if im in art i listen to this song with my big muff headphones!!!(:
@M3GTR thats what i thought at first, but listening more thoroughly the lyrics sounded like he was doing cocaine...plus a live video of him singing this song he says before the start "this song is about doing things you shouldn't"....idk thats what i get out of it.
I swore he said "the frost took up the axe" sort of saying the winter brought an end to the inner and outer relationship. And then it was the sample of the axe sliding on the ground. It gave the most amazing perception of what was felt. Hopefully he would be pleased to know even when his lyrics are misunderstood the music speaks so loud as a whole that it can transform it's beauty to form the key to another door. Truly a beautiful masterpiece my friend.
the thing with Justin is that every song of his is unique yet just like all of the others. there's just something about him, every single one of his songs is magic, on this album and on For Emma.
My favorite track on the whole album. Not that Perth, Calgary and Holocene are bad tracks, but I kind of wish this one didn't get buried under all the hype for those tracks... this isn't album filler.
I find this sounds more like his original songs... the one's from For Emma, Forever ago. I like this song a lot too. But it reminds me of my ex girlfriend (we listened to Bon Iver ALLL the time) and that kinda' sucks. But I'm really a huge fan. I'm glad I have another album to listen to now... since I can't listen to the first one anymore. Anyways, I'm high and off topic so I'll end this. Cheers!
