  • it it makes me look back at the 80's with nostalgia...

  • now that this song exists, i never have to contemplate suicide. there is always a reason to live.

  • this is axiom. :)

  • This is the best way to end the album, it makes me full at home and accomplished.

  • feels like 1985

  • Wow. That was breathtaking.

  • I was listening to this thorugh my headphones and my friend thought i was listening to amazing music and I was.

  • Comment removed

  • never stop making music please

  • I like Trees.

  • I was listening to this through my headphones and my friend thought I was listening to porn..

  • This song is literally amazing, but for some reason took me a couple listens. Maybe I had to get over the 80s feel of it but wow, such a good closer to a literally perfect album.

  • @ConorHurren WTF.. I had the exact same feeling...

  • The beginning reminds me of old people

  • Ahh softcore porn music to my ears!

  • i wish he would sing like this more often. 

  • @skypup77 Justin Vernon - Self Record

    The whole album is him not singing in falsetto. You'll love it.

  • i like how the video is just a backdrop to the song. it doesn't take away from how great the music is

  • @macdiehl

    It's inspired by 80's synth pop, but its much bigger than that. Listen closer. Bon iver won best new artist for a reason.

  • this sounds like a shitty 80's synth pop song.

    i cant believe they won a grammy.

  • @machdiehl how does this sound anything like synth pop ?

  • @adamgore1 /watch?v=JWdZEumNRmI

    well this is what it reminds me of.

  • @machdiehl oh god Air Supply thats a name I was hoping not to hear for a while :P

  • @adamgore1 my same feelings.

  • @machdiehl maybe you should go listen to some 80s synth pop before you make that comparison.

  • this is us-uh...woooooooooh

  • this album ruined my life...i cant listen to anything else, it's like a drug...

  • i'm speechless at the feet of this song.

  • Phil Collins "In Too Deep"..so damn similar it's awesome!

  • This song reminds me of another artist and it is bugging the crap out of me that I can't identify who the artist is. Beautiful song.

  • @kazagirl Sting possibly? It's got such an 80's feel to it.

  • @kazagirl Bruce Hornsby

  • I can honestly say this is the most beautiful song I have ever listened to. I cried the first two times I listened to it. I am not sure what it meant to Justin Vernon, but what it means to me is more than can be explained.

  • Bruce Hornsby & The Range?

  • do i detect a hint of autotune?

  • @brettrobertleasure Vocoder, I think.

  • This new Dave Matthews Band album is terrible.

  • @ArmondBlack What the heck does Dave have to do with Bon Iver? Isn't even close genres?

  • I agree, this is totally Worth buying.

  • It's interesting, that they published whole album on YT for free, unlimited listening. And you know what? I'm not going to play it everytime on YT "for free", I'm gonna buy this masterpiece, cause I think, that it's fucking worth buying.

  • @MrChillyPiano you're going to buy an album? you hero, what a generous gesture!

  • @geoffwoade I feel irony in your answer, and i don't know if you wanted this. But face it, nowadays a lot of people download albums, and i think buying it, especially when it's free on YouTube, is not a common thing.

  • @MrChillyPiano fair enough. i was in a bit of an asshole mood, my apologies

  • @geoffwoade :) I understood your taunt, I know that buying CDs should be something common, but unfortunately it isn't. I didn't want to make a hero out of me, but to show people, that this album is not based on simple pop songs, but it's something better, much better.

  • I get chills through my whole body every time this songs starts when I'm listening to the album. When I've listened to Lisbon, OH it's like I've been on a journey and I am returning home when this song starts. I feel safe.

  • @RJduckyard Oh my god Yes, i agree totally. this song is like the best musical description of resolution and coming home. It makes me feel like I can appreciate anything and everything.

  • I've been infecting every single one of my friends' Facebook Walls with this playlist. If Bon Iver were AIDS, then consider me that snotty little fuck from the movie "Kids".

  • I was listening to this when I found an old picture of my grandfather holding my aunt, as a baby. She just died of cancer a couple months ago and it absolutely crushed my grandfather. Brought tears to my eyes.

  • 3:16 this part of the song hits my heart like a ton of bricks. sends shocks through my soul that are strong and powerful but beautiful and elegant enough to still be soothing.bless the genius behind this body of work that is justin vernon.

  • beatifuuul

  • I only think of Bon Jovi when I'm "in the mood"... you know?

  • All these "deluxe" videos are incredibly minimalist and complementary to the vibe of the music. But the opening shot of the flare for this one? Wow. Beautiful.

  • deluxe ma chubby ring piece.

  • small video budget, outside with three lights, a fog machine, and someone's macbook with photo booth

  • Peter Gabriel...

  • I would never turn this man off mid-song.

  • this song is like going to a really nice restaurant and getting served a bologna sandwich only to find out that it is the most amazing thing you have ever eaten.

  • @excitebikeii Bunner.

  • ///|| DX7 ||\\\

  • Imagine being locked in a cabin in the woods with Bon and his guitar. You'd chew your own head off after ten minutes.

  • @Mrpiggyinthemiddle You're thinking of Bon Jovi. Rookie mistake

  • ...this is very Kenny G. but in a good way.

  • I just died and went to HEAVEN

  • Moving recently to Thailand, Bon Iver is the soundtrack of my new life. WOW! It's beyond words, Thank you.

  • Steve Winwood?

  • I have been travelling across Europe for the past 12 hours, this is the perfect music to kick back and relax to and just think about everything and nothing.

  • when Justin Vernon meets Sting... (?)

  • aw yiss

  • 2am cigarette and wine music

  • It's Christopher Cross' lost masterpiece!

  • I just saw them perform this live last night in Eau Claire.. It was an epic performance. The bass on this shook the auditorium like i've never felt or heard. So much talent.

  • @ThisMakesMeThink Same thing happened on the 10th in Madison. Truly amazing.

  • This makes me think of the school dance from Napoleon Dynamite haha

  • This is one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard. This whole CD is phenomenal. Listen to it straight through

  • This song is corny as hell, derivative, and completely ridiculous. It's also one of the most unabashedly beautiful songs of the year.

    God DAMMIT, Justin Vernon.

  • Manaiatele !!!.

  • 1 dislike.. keep it that way..

  • strange vid, I feel like I'm missing something

  • @apoca1ypse1 i think it might just have been made to look nice. not sure if it means anything.

  • I'm so jealous my friend is going to his concert tomorrow

  • Justin Vernon..and the Mechanics. 

  • The smoke is carried over from the previous video, for Lisbon, OH, which I heard is supposed to represent a house fire Vernon talks about as one of the most defining moments of his life... This deluxe edition for my favorite album of the year (and most others) is simply breathtaking.

  • i just love this, phil collins and justin should just come over for wine and some beth!

  • @adelah On first glance I thought this said, "phil collins and justin should just come over for wine and some meth!" lol my bad.

  • @Overbeek1991 haahahah my comment is never going to be the same again

  • gosh i love bon Iver!

  • feeling sad, Bon Iver has a place. The comments made the grade and made me feel good.

  • Where the F is Phil Collins when ya neeeed em?

  • Couldn't get better

  • I thought Peter Cetera was going to start singing for a second..

  • Definitely an 80s sounding tune. <3

  • This is intensely amazing.

    

  • When I hear this song I think of it would have fit perfectly into the love scenes in All the Right Moves or Top Gun.

  • @grandeTO9 Ew.

  • Comment removed

  • Great song!!!

  • THIS IS THE GORGEOUSEST SONG BY BON IVER.

    AND THE MOST UNINSPIRED VISUAL FOR IT.
