  • This is why we love auto-tune. 

  • Love this song ever since watching the game

  • Bon Iver's = rural loneliness

    Kanye's = urban loneliness

    Love 'em both.

  • How can u all like this! I like wince everytime I hear it! I love Bon iver, but this is by far! His worst song!! I'm obviously not going to dislike this video but....seriously, I hate it!!

  • i love it sooo much it make me wanna be a better person ans it would be an amzaing violin pice to play

  • awsome, one of my favs such a nice song to sit and relax to.

  • Skins. That is all.

  • Skins brought me here. <3

  • KANYE AND JUSTIN ARE BEST FRIENDS...... so stop. and hes getting famous and getting nominated for grammys because justin vernon is a genius.

  • I guess it's sorta like a piano acoustic version of a song. Some prefer one for it's rhythm and energy, others prefer the other for it's calmness and beauty. Whatever you say, Justin had a huge say on both tracks and (no disrespect to Kanye) was the best part about both tracks as well.

  • Kanye did not sample this, he actually had Justin Vernon come in and re-do the tracks and he also assisted on some other songs on the album as well. Shut the fuck up and enjoy the damn peaceful ass music, ya'll ruining the vibe.

  • i knw him now bcoz of kanye west

    

  • On The Game they used Kanye version. Yall need to watch it again. At one point you can hear Kanye's part from Lost in the World.

  • @swirle13isme

    And Justin Vernon would disagree with you

  • @swirle13isme made soley on a computer? Alot of melodies he creates himself on his extensive keyboard sets and live drum bands. Violins are his records are always recorded IN PERSON. Keep trolling online hating the world for your own personal reasons ass clown. Bon Iver enjoys Kanye's version, he doesn't need people to hate others FOR HIM. thats some female shit

  • @thedartsystem8 Fuck Kanye's mainstream ass, tool.

  • @swirle13isme if Bon Iver is getting nominated for grammy awards and such, wouldn't that make him mainstream as well? -_-

  • @warhawk3000 Silencing a hipster. 10 points to you.

  • @swirle13isme nice opinion there, you brainless hipster. do you know how kanye creates his beats?? he uses extensive live instruments as well as computer generated effects, which makes him one of the most famous producers of all time. and do you not know that kanye and Justin are extremely good friends and frequent collaborators. if you asked justin about kanye, he'd say he complete opposite of what you said. you sound like a kid who thinks he's cool because he doesnt like mainstream. grow up

  • makes perfect sense :)

  • simple and beautiful.

  • Beautiful

  • The Game brought me here LOL

  • If they watched THE GAME, they will come "lol"

  • For the record, a talkbox is nothing but a formant filter for an audio output. This is different from auto-tune, which is a pitch-correction algorithm.

  • I heard this on The Game premiere last night and instantly knew that it was Bon Iver not Kanye West.

  • @08Cdancer my girlfriend was like its kanye....and i just smiled and said no its not, babe...

  • @dhelem LOL!!! All of my friends and everyone on Twitter was like Kanye, Kanye, Kanye. All I said was listen to the tempos, it's Bon Iver.

  • I Heard This On The Game Season 5 Premiere And Had To Find It.!!

  • @HeartlessSavaqe Everyone thought it was Kanye West. But I knew it was Bon Iver because the tempo is different.

  • People who dislike this song dont know good music...it may say the same thing over and over again but the lyrics have a lot of meaning

  • Like if the game brought u here

  • up in the woods, down on my mind,

    i'm building a sill to slow down the time <3

  • what part is used in Kanye's song?

  • @xoxoitsmegxoxo listen to "lost in the world" by kanye west. should answer your question.

  • Why is he using autotune when he can sing so well anyway?! D:

  • @anchorkrewprez my twisted dark fantasy was one of the best albums in hip hop history, and if u cant realize his talent you shouldnt even like bon iver

  • So when i talk about bon iver do i say:

    He's so amazing

    or

    They're so amazing

    Someone help me out please

  • @t07alarconi Bon Iver is too amazing for pronouns. so we simply say Bon Iver is amazing.

  • @sweetness36992 Roger Troutman actually invented autotunes back in the late 70's and called it a talkbox. He was huge on the funk, r&b, and hip hop circuit. You may know him from sings the hook on Tupac's "California love". Rappers are responsible for crossing it over to other genres because they grow up listing to it. Just food for thought.

  • @kreativepandemonium Auto-Tune and Talkboxes are two very different things. Auto-Tune is pitch modulation software that can be programed to keep a sound recording in a certain key. Talkboxes carry the sound of an instrument (such as a guitar or a synthesizer) through a tube that a user puts into their mouth, where they can mouth out words and use the instrument's sound output as a "voice". Also, Roger Troutman did not invent the Talkbox, he just liked to use it in his performances.

  • This song is very musically genius and the artist is definitely talented but its just okay to me.

  • check out the remix i did to the song on my page ... all i did was make an instrumental for it

  • Good Lord Kanye knows good music. I was just mind fucked by this song, genious song to sample.

  • is there a version without auto tune?

  • Not going to lie I was half-crying when this played on Skins, both because of the episode and the song.

  • I'mma let you finish but this is probably one of my favourite Bon Iver tracks...

  • This is crap.

  • Eargasm at 1:41

    

  • You sir, live in colorado.

  • Great!

  • It's like a man Imogen Heap. I've never heard anything like this by Bon Iver, I love it.

  • goosebumps.

  • Justin Vernon Taught rappers how to use auto tune

  • I needed that nap.

  • kayne can S a D

  • Awkward Silence Games brought me here.

    and then I revisited every day.

  • @InsectsGalore so? why analyze everything? let it be.

  • I feel like the beginning is autotuned

  • am i the only one who finds this song creepy??

  • @Bananas0695 yes

  • Going to see Bon Iver in concert tonight!

  • bon iver and kanye have more in common than you think. when kanye was recording Twisted Fantasy he ,just like justin vernon when recording 'for Emma', went on recluse and was using a period of time to heal and do music. where justin went to the cabin because of his illnesses and break ups etc, kanye went to Hawaii trying to deal with the fact that sooo many people hate him.

    i say that the collaboration was meant to happen and is very rare and genuine, and im glad cos the music is fucking brill

  • The remix is by ChromeGold, he's very underground at the moment but he is also very talented.

  • I found a dubstep remix of this, it's pretty amazing: youtube.com/watch?v=pnm4rQElFo­E

  • Forget about everything.  Just enjoy.

  • Kanye added life to this track, still good though

  • Actually, I believe the reason why Bon Iver is getting getting all the Grammy attention now is largely due to it being included (heavily sampled) in the last track of Kanye West's album. This is an amazing track and Kanye didn't need to make much changes to it.

  • DONT HATE ON KANYE! IF BON IVER DIDNT LIKE IT.. HE WOULDNT ALLOWED HIM TO USE THE TRACK! SO BOOM!! STOP HATIN AND JUST ENJOY THE MUSIC!!

  • @RonnCott Bon Iver is not a person...

  • @RonnCott that's not true at all. if two artists are on the same record label, the producer has full rights to both of their songs. therefore their songs can be used without direct permission from the artist, as long as it's used in another artist's song on the same record label.

  • I love this song so so much. they should get jason derulo and t-pain and all that shit to listen to it, teach them how to use autotune to make amazing music

  • reminds me of Imogen Heap. very good

  • I hate to say it cos i like most of kanye's stuff but.... he totally and utterly ruined this song with lost in the world. Be honest guys, the mellow atmosphere this piece creates is simply destroyed. shame.

  • @Iprovideo1

    the thing people dont get, he didnt try to recreate the song or make his own version, he sampled this song, but he made a completely different one. Both versions are great. Oh, and also people, kanye is considered all over the world as one of the greatest artists of all time, so if your going to trashtalk him about the taylor swift thing and his arrogance ,atleast make it about his personality, because trashtslking his music just makes you look stupid. Period.

  • See, Kanye?.....This is how you use autotune tastefully.

  • @joshTHFRO nope

  • @joshTHFRO Kanye knows how to use autotune tastefully. Actually, he's pretty much the ONLY rapper who used it well. Listen to "Say You Will", "Paranoid" or "Robocop". He did a damned good job.

  • @MissZindzi Also "Bad News" and "Coldest Winter".

  • This song makes me ugly cry every single time.

  • Such a great song!

    

  • sweet song..think the pics go to fast tho..looks like a lot of Wyoming stuff possibly too

  • Wow. Just, wow.

  • good song, but 3:30 kinda scares me o.0

  • i made a beat years ago when this first came out sampling this.. sure enough...

  • @anchorkrewprez Justin Vernon recorded with Kanye for his remix...

  • @anchorkrewprez You might not like Kanye or his music, fair enough...but to call him talentless?

    _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/<<<< Have several seats!

  • @anchorkrewprez what the hell are u talking about kanye ruined the song? i dont get people like you dont be a hipster and what do u mean no talent? gosh i dont get people like you

  • @anchorkrewprez pffft.

  • @anchorkrewprez You kidding? LOL

  • @anchorkrewprez kanye's last album got an average rating of 94/100 so you can suck a cock.

  • @torontojenniferx Oh my god, a bunch of basement dwellers got paid by his label to rate it positively. Form your own opinion on music instead of blindly following music critics you pretentious hipster.

  • @WutDfuzz you have tyler the creator, azalea banks, and das racist in your favorite videos, and have uploaded world of warcraft videos. idk if you should be calling others basement-dwellers or pretentious hipsters.

  • @MGXVX I'm not saying that I don't like some of the music that music critics promote, I was simply responding to the shallowness of that person's comment which made it seem like a music critic's rating is the end all be all in determining music's worth. Just because I like some music that music publications like doesn't mean that I'm going to justify the music's quality due to their approval and tell people to suck a cock if they don't like it.

  • @WutDfuzz i liked kanye west even before i knew about his fucking ratings, it's just that this dick thought kanye was talentless and there isn't much to rebute that with other than bringing up ratings. i'm just proving my damn point.

  • @torontojenniferx Hey, I don't think Kanye is bad at all, I think he's pretty average, but to rely on a rating to show how good a person is, is not reliable at all :P just a thought

  • @Wolta You calling him average proves you know nothing bout him. Are you a white girl?

  • @Redkonvict Nope, I'm a half asian half white guy, Sorry for not having the same opinion as you, good day sir!

  • @Wolta it may not be reliable, but are you really going to listen to his 6+ albums just to form an opinion on him? it's easier to just give solid evidence based on what other people think.

  • @torontojenniferx I bet other people listened to his 6+ albums to form an opinion and we're just too lazy to :P

    But anyways, not here to argue, I do like some of his stuff, but to say that some people calling him average makes me not know anything about them, and makes us white girls is just nonsense :P

  • VOLCANO CHOIR BROUGHT ME HERE.

  • I cry every freaking time...!

  • Comment removed

  • @seychelleboy It's not a vocoder it is auto tune and to get the harmony all he did was record over the voices he'd already done. Do you think every song with harmonies is a vocoder?

  • @itsCrisisMusic to achieve something similar I would use both autotune and a vocoder, and sorry the harmonies are from the layering of the vocals but played through a vocoder. Well that's what I think. I am interested in how you would achieve similar results thanks.

  • @itsCrisisMusic also what version of auto tune do you use?

  • ok I just read an article where he does state he uses auto-tune, I do apologise sir.

  • wait so who sang this?

  • the harmony in this is absolutely beautiful<3

  • @XDiLaughAtYou its auto tune not a harmony

  • @sethdoesmeth I know basic music theory. Bon Iver places specific vocal tracks in a way that when certain notes overlap they make a chord. That is called harmony. The actually definition is the combination of simultaneously sounded musical notes to produce chords and chord progressions with a pleasing effect. He possibly uses autotune when producing the vocal tracks but that is irrelevant to harmony.

  • kanye and justin vernon!!! #1 callaboration of the decade

  • i love this song, it makes me go to sleep at night<3

  • Skins

  • @VideoJunky

    oh my god, I knew I knew this song. I was trying to figure it out.

  • Normally I hate music like this. Like, when it's literally nothing but autotune, but I can honestly say, I love this song so much. I heard it in Skins and can't stop listening to it now!

  • @WorldsBiggestGleek3 I don't get why everyone disses on autotune so much. When used by a skilled musician, autotune is just another way to make wonderful music. I bet if you hadn't heard this song in Skins, you would have dissed on it as much as you have dissed RB's Friday, "because it's nothing but autotune." (or maybe you haven't dissed on Friday since it was used in Glee, idk)

  • @nirvanist1 No, even if it wasn't in Skins, I would've genuinely loved this song. Where songs are used and how I find out about them have nothing to do with my feelings for the songs. Even though Glee did Friday, it's still not a song I can listen to all the time. I just don't like it very much. And I'm not saying autotune is terrible, I'm just saying that, I, personally, don't like it very much.

  • @WorldsBiggestGleek3 ok fair enough. i just meet a lot of "gleeks" and skins freaks that know shit about music and are like "omg this song is so bad" but then it gets featured in the show and they change their opinion instantly. nice to see not everyone is like that.

  • Comment removed

  • it can't be loud enough!

  • Everyone addresses Justin Vernon as Bon Iver aha Bon Iver is his band

  • @XxknowsabexX actually Bon Iver is the moniker Justin Vernon uses for himself when playing music, like how Conor Oberst goes by Bright Eyes in his songs

  • dis is fuckin gay u call dis shet music?

  • @StoolCoiler mmmmhhhhyyyy! nigger!

  • @Hngryvulture627 i dont give no shet dat im a nigga. dis music still fuckin shet white ass fuck

  • @Hngryvulture627 ur family fucked up bro, just jump off da pawn shawp

  • @StoolCoiler lol.

  • wow. i really dont like this. auto tune in dance music is ok, but here is just devalues the song imo.

  • idk i gotta be honest about tha whole which version is better debate.....this version is cool but...frankly i wouldnt even kno dis bon iver cat if it wasnt for kanye....and tha comments that lead me to this page....anyhow...dont even front youtubers...kanyes version just has alittle more ump in it which makes it better...but shouts out to bon for makin it good enuff for kanye to even consider sampling....

  • i think i just found my new favorite artist/song :)

  • @spazzmcsnipes u fuckin gay son, u a tru nigger if u lik dis trash

  • @StoolCoiler oh wow. check it out. its another super cool gamer who thinks their awesome cuz they can hate on people over the internet. for real man. if you dont like it, dont listen to it.! no need to ruin for the rest of us. god.

  • @spazzmcsnipes no bro ur garbage this song is garbage

  • @StoolCoiler great, i think its awesome you have an opinion, but if its hatin on things all the rest of us like, just keep it to yourself! NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR IT!!!

  • @spazzmcsnipes gewd for you dumbfuck n its 2 bad, if i want 2 say it then no1s guna stop me from sayin it

  • i think i just found my new favorite artist/song :)

  • I bet Jason DeRulo will 'sample' this song and write lyrics to it like, "I'm up in duh club, I'm down on duh floor; I'm standing at the bar so I can pick up a whore." Oh dear pop music.

  • This is totally different from Lost in the World, but both songs are amazing.

    I can't see how Kanye ruined that. He used an amazing sample sample perfectly to create something new. But there will always be people not happy with samples, recreations and covers without a reason.

  • Kanye brought me here, but I'm really glad he did

  • kinda reminds me of imogen heap a little

  • @kevinspirit I see that, I see that

  • @rissehx3 he was inspired to make this song from Imogen Heap hide and Seek,

  • 2:06 on reminds me of wolves howling *__*

  • Wow... Perfect.

  • If Bon Iver and Imogen Heap had a kid, it would be able to sing in 16-part harmony.

  • This is really cool. I love this.

  • Fuck Kanye West

  • I want to get lost, drunk, in the woods with this song

  • Honestly, both versions are great. It's hard for me to choose which one I like better though :p

  • Say what you will, autotune sounds pretty fucking woeful regardless of its usage being "creative" or not. Creative my ass. Just more proof that Bon Iver is a bullshit muncher.

  • @GanonSatan kanye ruined it. bon iver is perfect

  • @wayness100 Bon Iver made it, Kanye saw its potential, have an open mind.

  • love this song from Skins

  • This song is great but I think Kanye gave it that missing thing to make it awesome.

  • LMFAO I had no idea the whole song was only "I'm up in the woods I'm down on my mind I'm building a still To slow down the time" After all the times I listened to this song......

  • this song makes me want to cry. i guess that's the point.

  • Fuck kanye west.

  • @likasomeboodee1 lol u prolly wish ya could

  • Dude where do you go backpacking cause I want this on my playlist then I'm heading there.

  • Oh, fuck everybody: instead of talking shit about the reason why Bon Iver used a vocoder, why don't you just LISTEN AND ENJOY this great song?! suckers.
