Bon Iver - Skinny Love

[Ilonaaproductions]

the awkard moment when people actually think that Birdy's version is the original song

[blancmerlot]

Bon Iver forever! :)

[NoricaDoll]

I think the original is asking it to last but Birdys is it how it won't last

[gallimoreyyy]

This is beautiful!

[bubs0000]

Your attachments piss off my opinions.

[GunzEnzo]

Yeah this songs good, but better than original? nah..

i dont think so - personal opinion though..

@SuperNerdWebb ................ -facepalm-

[SuperNerdWebb]

@GunzEnzo excuse me? sorry i dont quite understand that comment:L

[SuperNerdWebb]

@GunzEnzo i apologise if your previous comment was hugely sacarstic, its hard to portray tone in a written form of communication. if that isnt the case and you are genuinely serious then i feel very, very sorry for you.

[SuperNerdWebb]

things that annoy me;

1. nicki minaj, skrillex and j. cole fans saying bon iver didnt deserve the grammy, learn to appreciate real music!

2. birdy's cover of this song has 5times the amount of views, bon iver deserves as much if not more recognition than birdy!

bon iver are a talent<3

[Yewtubeizcool]

@SuperNerdWebb Fucking oath.

[Thin1Thin2Thin3]

Don't get irritated, be happy! :D Life is too short, for getting irritadet for this.

And respect others taste in music, people should listen to what they want! :)

I personally don't like pop, but I',not being cruel or anything.

[SuperNerdWebb]

@Thin1Thin2Thin3 i didnt say fans of those artists should listen to bon iver, i just said it's wrong for them to think he didnt deserve the grammy because their music isnt to their taste:)

what an optimistic and beautiful comment:)<3

[ccmillow]

what there was even a dislike button on this page? r u kidding me how did these bastards even hear about it then

[Thatloserlady]

This song has so much feeling in it..

I simply adore how so many people can connect to the horrid, irritating feeling of losing one's love.

Iver seems to be one of the artists I can really connect to.

[TheJessColleen]

Still my favourite version.

[vinged]

whow this is nice

[0oKimbabo0]

I hate the cover by birdy... :C

[Justachecking4545]

It's ea-Vair not iiverr.

[epsilonnaught1]

Bon Iver and I have been through some tough shit together. We belt this song on a rainy day, we hum it by a lake in the sun, late nights camping under the stars, traveling with loved ones from town to town, driving home heart broken in the middle of the night, drinking myself silly and serenading random folk. This guy is always along for the ride with me.

[snowyangel97]

I don't like it... There is no emotion in this, at all. Bon just makes it a song, there's no true emotion or feeling. At least Ed Sheeran and Birdy can put emotion into it instead of it being 'just another song'.

[ThatGuyNamedTim]

@snowyangel97 go away

[snowyangel97]

@ThatGuyNamedTim No thanks, I'm simply just expressing my opinion, and it is true, when you listen to it there is no true emotion and you are emotionally absent if you can't sense that.

[ThatGuyNamedTim]

@snowyangel97 In my opinion, he's the only one who puts emotion into this song at all, birdy just does a cover, Justin wrote the song expressing his emotions, while isolated in a cabin

[FatherCthulu]

@snowyangel97 Did you even listen to the song? There is a lot of emotion, especially in the chorus.

[smoothnessman]

This is a masterpeice I'm ashamed its taking me so long to find

[CatchingNeverland]

I'm sitting in my room in the dark right now blasting this song, crying and laughing and I can't even figure out why. I'm just absolutely amazed.

[xXVanessaLilyXx]

God, I love this song so much! Soo much.

[CoffinBuiltForTwo]

Even though the volume is on max, IT'S JUST NOT FUCKING LOUD ENOUGH! MY WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD HAS TO HEAR THIS!

[gaetan0702]

Bring back Chuck...

[GodfatherxD]

@gaetan0702

Hell yeah. Chuck ripped a hole in my heart.

[okaytoday11]

commeee on skinny love...we love you Bon Iver. Beautiful beyond words

[lolwutsit]

I heard this BEFORE the grammys. Gosh darn it guys

[GodfatherxD]

I could imagine that his guitar is a very old one, like the one he played when he was young. It has an unbelievable sound. Paul McCartney would click "Like" on this, because this is great music!

[RiveraMariana]

I love this song. Birdy's verison of it is good too.

[SmilingSnowGirl]

only 3.000.826 views? Seems i listen that song alone.

[SuperNerdWebb]

@SmilingSnowGirl mind boggling that birdy's COVER has 5x the amount of views<3

[kjelljorgenson1]

BONNY BEAR!

[DarkAngelEU]

Don't know him that long, but I love his music ever since I do. This man can make you feel heartbroken while the love of your life is sitting right next to you.

[Learnguitartunes]

Please check out my video which is a lesson on how to play skinny love, this is for normal tuning on acoustic guitar. Please leave comments and requests if you liked my lesson. Thanks

[Badilla92]

Its really amazing how all the bad things that were happening to Justin during this time and turned it into for emma, forever ago. Is truly amazing and inspiring.

[victoriavts22]

@sg248. He isn't mainstream and will not be. He will never play in huge venues and never get fans who appreciapt him as much of those from eau claire/minneapolis who in fact have been listening for years on the current radiostation, attending local shows, and understanding his journey so far. So if u can appreciate it, go for it. But he nor his real fans care whether he goes mainstream or not. He isn't yet and I don't think he will be a pop sensation. He's better than that.

[sg238]

I hate it when people get all possessive over a musician when they become mainstream, when the artist in question has no fucking idea who you are, and are also delighted to now be raking in the rewards from being recognised.

[TheSwankArtisan]

lol! good lord im confused who actualy wrote this song! aha, bon iver right?

[412budburgh420]

He's really good. But has nobody ever heard Matt Pond before?

[danielurr]

my, my, my, my, my, my, my

[MatthewBatsonMusic]

Justin Vernon is probably the most influential artist for me. His story is also influential to me as well. I'm a 16 year old, who plays guitar, bass, harmonica, drums, and some piano. I record my own music with two microphones in a small room in my house. I would love to make music my living. I just finished recording a small EP. It is located on my channel under the playlist, "Winter EP" My style is similar to Bon Iver's, so don't worry about it sounding like pop garbage. Please vote this up!

[szaaabo1]

Hi. I made a mashup/remix with this song and with Lana del reys Born to die. Please listen and tell me what you think :)

/watch?v=jyKeZ25olAc&context=C­34c60fbADOEgsToPDskLX4RX-AdUUm­kk_sIyXap1P

[SoleyForTheBanter]

I love how at the grammy awards, backstage justin vernon said that he thought he: "Didn't deserve to be there." More like he was the only one who deserved to be there. People like chris brown and all those other talentless people can hide behind their dancing and their overly loud synthetic beats/instruments, but they can never come close to even comparing with justin vernon just stood there, playing his guitar and singing

[icons519]

I FUCKING LOVE BONNY BEAR

[goodoldmanny]

I closed porn because of this.

[FBIcoolboy759]

@goodoldmanny No you didnt, this is still porn, Earporn.

[ErenTaner01]

Who cares if people are hating on him now? It's their loss.

[vultureofculturistic]

Um, I love both Bon Iver AND Lady Gaga. Take that conformity on both sides of the issue! xD



[Pablosammy1]

How did this win a NEWCOMER award? Still, I'm so happy it did :-)

[mrsspargel]

@Pablosammy1 haha yeah i was also confused about that...

[notjohn100]

No matter how hard i try i cant get into this simply because the music is too happy for what he is saying.

[diana27563]

@notjohn100 Happy? Seriously? You need a bit more experience in music to understand his voice and the sound. -.-

[notjohn100]

@diana27563 his voice and the lyrics are not happy in the slightest, which is why i have a problem because i do not think the beat or the guitars go with it at all.

[notjohn100]

@diana27563 and it's really only during the "and i told you to be patient" part

[professortwitch]

birdys version is better

[fuckyouremotions]

who the fuck is skrillex !!!! Congrats Justin !

[TheIshoda]

Just found out about Bon Iver through the Grammys. I think I'm in love.

[egirly1]

I love Bon Iver!

[checkyourself06]

Bittersweet feeling that Bon Iver(Justin Vernon) won the grammy tonight. Although talented music is finally being recognized, idiots everywhere with no taste in music are bashing on Bon Iver just because they are just now finding out who he is, or for not dressing as idiotic as Katy Perry, Rhianna, or Lady Gaga. Learn to pronounce the name before you diss on him.

[partyk1d24]

@checkyourself06 Amen. He's not a new artist. His grammy acceptance speech pretty much summed it up.... Lots of overlooked talent.

[EnergizerBunny804]

@checkyourself06 true that, hopefully the trolls will forget about him soon, and he gains a good chunk of new fans aswell

[thevolleyballer96]

Birch sings a song, Bon Iver tells a story. love both versions

[FavWorstNitemare]

best fucking artist, theres hope for music :')

[silkymilky99]

I'm sorry but who the heck are u???????????? How could u win over Nikita and the band Perry?????

[wowautumn1000]

@silkymilky99 Go away. 

[Donnnnnnny]

@silkymilky99 Because he is infinitely better. Infinitely.

[MrJduzit]

dang where have i been does the radio play their songs

[londonngirl14]

i have heard birdys version and i think that this version is good but i actually like birdys version better i think the piano works better than a guitar no affence but its a beautiful song truly (:

[mydogyoshi]

@TheJake455 Please don't vote.

[atomicsharpiie]

@TheJake445 If you keep spelling like that nobody is going to take you seriously.

[chasingautomobiles]

BEST NEW ARTIST I LOVE YOU

[TheJake445]

i never heard of him untill i saw him win. i thought he dressed cheap looked like a petifile. after watching his videos i realized every other person (nicki minja) deserved the award more then him.

[topgeargorilla]

@TheJake445 you're a dildoface

[katief96ataol]

@TheJake445 Considering that Nicki Minaj has a song called "Stupid Hoe", I think your point is invalid.

[kjbkcka]

he just won!!! BEST NEW ARTIST

[arsikiller]

Bon Iver gave that song the SOUL, not Birdy or anybody else.

[Swegen]

Perhaps some would like to hear this interpretation (use normal Youtube link url before)

MPNhADttvac

[GrizzlyBeale]

Such an amazing song, such a great album. Truly one of my faves to listen to. the covers, blase compared to this.

[melbergeron123]

I love how this song is very unique and how beautiful it truly is :)

[Smilealloveragain7]

Reminds me of eating disorders...so pretty

[kapze321]

[NewHavenIDT]

[joosjebui]

@xxCelineex Echt ga weg.

[D1H2J3L4]

@xxCelineex ik sluit me aan bij @tenmashi. En nee, ik ben geen kakker.

[laChicaBomb]

Just b

[maarten482]

memories<3

[TheJiggityjack]

sorry but 90% of music is redone its really sad like how can you be a loud to ruin forever young and like molly ciyeise or what ever do nirvana songs

[weenz666]

This kicks ass, best version by far :) I hate when people think original songs are covers. FUCK OFFF.

[weenz666]

@xxCelineex Idiot

[Jamie8ishere]

this is such a good song.

[Depp44987]

ed sheerans cover of this song is pretty good

[poirier1441]

Thumbs up if you are perfect and better than everyone else.

[MelissaD0302]

@MrsLeonieJWZ De orginele is van hen, Birdy heeft m gecoverd :)

[hdvit]

@MrsLeonieJWZ De originele van Birdy? Kom eens onder je steen vandaan. Het origineel is van Bon Iver.

[xxCelineex]

the cover of Birdy is match better.

this is not so powerful.

bye, ugly cover of Skinny Love.

[ChocolatePingu]

@xxCelineex Firstly, Bon Iver are amazing. Secondly, this isn't an "ugly cover" due to the facts that it is neither ugly nor a cover. Goodbye.

[AMinduhPM]

@xxCelineex lol... This is the original, not cover. Do a little bit of research before you post a hateful comment, k?;)

[elephant0wl]

@xxCelineex Dumbass

[thatcazzie]

@xxCelineex smh....

[brodcaster6]

@xxCelineex you douche this song is not a cover bon iver done the original while birdy and ed sheeran done the covers, learn what your talking about before you say something dumb next time yeh.

[xxCelineex]

@brodcaster6 it doe'nt matter. en ik ben nederlands. dus ik snap er geen ene reet van. doei.

[tenmashi]

@xxCelineex Ik schaam me dat we uit hetzelfde land komen. Hoe moeilijk is het om je fout toe te geven en te verontschuldigen of nog beter: eerst even Google raadplegen voor je je klep open trekt. Drie seconden onderzoek om te voorkomen dat je gigantisch voor paal staat.

[xxCelineex]

@tenmashi hoi kakker.

[cranksdrummer]

@xxCelineex You're right.

[dzeeessx3]

POLSKA PRZEJMUJĘ TEN CUDOWNY KAWAŁEK!

[bltea]

Check out my skinny love cover and let me know what you guys think :) xo.

[ThePatrickSGh]

Dang, first song I've listened to by Bon Iver, I love it

[UnicornsRFit]

[eyeheartmusicality]

@UnicornsRFit good point but birdy has it all

[DisneyFreak292]

[MrLiberaNos]

Wow, so powerful.

[lunasterre4]

so much better than birdy ! thumbs up ;D

[kongfused]

I can't hear these trolls over how awesome Bon Iver is.

[bridgetger3]

What the hell is the point of hating on a video on youtube? Congratulations you have an opinion. So does everyone else, don't watch it if you don't like it. Duh.

[iexusuxei]

@bridgetger3 How would you know if you like it or not if you didn't watch it. Hard to have an opinion of something you know nothing of.

[banankake123]

Beautiful.... just the way it should be <3 Haven't heard of birdy don't really want to know of it either just want to listen to this ^ ^

[TheSpongebobSchwamm]

birdy is soooo fuckin' better !! ♥

[YannieRules]

@TheSpongebobSchwamm go listen to it then....

[ZwienerZ]

@TheSpongebobSchwamm Birdy licks balls

[ackwell11]

"Birdy" is nothing compared to Bon Iver.

[erikjuhcool]

Oh um yes they have. Watch Born this way. The song is gay. Bon Iver sucks. His music sucks. You suck dick.

[kizza1298]

@erikjuhcool You can fuck right off then. Never put down Bon Iver, Never compare them to anyone else either, dick.

[TheFallen7fold]

@erikjuhcool I DO suck dick! Well done! I'm a guy who likes penis! And no, Born This Way does not have a sexual orientation just because it is about accepting people as they are. IT IS A SONG, not an animal -_-

[Juliss4jul]

Best version ever for me. Just original and so true.

[lovelovelovexJBx123]

I ask myself all the time when I see cruel comments; WHY are you here? why aren't you listen to something you actually LIKE? beautiful song btw!

[PunkrockgirlBFR]

@lovelovelovexJBx123 Because it's okay if you want to know many things, so you listen here at music, don't like it and just post your opinion. It's okay.

[erikjuhcool]

He can't sing

[kizza1298]

@erikjuhcool Your just a huge douche bag who can't appreciate good music, go back to your hipster shit.

[erikjuhcool]

This song is gay.

[TheFallen7fold]

@erikjuhcool Songs don't have sexual orientations I'm afraid...
