Ingrid Michaelson covering Bon Iver ~Skinny Love

[SouhaaMusic]

She is perfect.

[ticklemyfancybaby]

I love Ingrid so much!

[24jmwatts]

Amazing!!



[mimsan642]

This made my day. Ingrid plus Bon Iver is just love.

[lizbob34510]

is she using an ukulele or a guitar? ... xD

[SmeeGuitar]

@lizbob34510 sounds like uke. She seams to be very small (the girl) :p

[NiteManhattan]

@lizbob34510 I think it's a baritone ukulele. =)

[sadieemt]

two of my favourite artists combined, what more could a girl ask for.

[Auggie56]

So adorable she is.

[yoanntheturtle]

@Auggie56 ok yoda

[Auggie56]

@yoanntheturtle Yoda ? What I posted is proper speech turtle breath.....lol

[FlissandErika]

Birdie ripped off Ingrid.

[joshizzle4]

I love this. It makes me want to just create art

[iareilliterate]

@joshizzle4 the wrong ones :/

[TheJuansterMonster]

Does anybody know what chords she is using?

[FeelingGoodFilms]

@TheJuansterMonster Am C ;D

[TheJuansterMonster]

@FeelingGoodFilms sorry.. uhm... just A and C .. or D too?

[Tyman103]

Oh god why can't I marry her ;_;

[Auggie56]

She just sang her way into my heart and soul.

[jmacs555]

She put one too many my's in the first verse. No other complaints. Love ya IM & BI!

[ConfusedSpoonCo]

Yo dawg, I heard you like lights. So I put fairy lights on your lamp, so you can light while you light.

[HHH517]

what instrument is that..?

[Kayshae1125]

@HHH517 it's a ukulele 

[rlassen06]

lets get rich and buy our parents house in southern France... I love you.. Love Bon Iver.. Nice cover!

[tifishe]

Ingrid, you are amazing and I love your music, but you are not right for this song. No one sings with the passion, sincerity, or angst that Justin Vernon does, and that is what makes his music so wonderful for me. It also sorta kills me to hear a woman sing those lyrics.... That being said, I still love you and I dig that you appreciate good music :)

[plvollers]

such a beautiful voice..... you are amazing ingrid! if you get a chance, check out my cover of skinny love! :)

[meafsterx]

VVVVV It's true she has 3 studio albums and 1 self released oneVVVVVV

[TNMEBDlove]

....you guys, she IS famous. well i've heard of her before. look up her cover of 'roll away your stone' by mumford&sons, it's great too!

[iwraptburrito]

Does anyone know the chords she's playing. I want to learn this version sooooo bad!!!

[dreamer18thangell]

wow totally love your voice mamas I invite you to hear my recorded version of the song I am going to sing @ Americas Got Talent in Dec... here reverbnation /play_now/song_10582170 also come view my videos at youtube. /dreamer18thangell come like my page & follow me on twitter /jessiv2006 hope you havin an awesome week xoxo ;;o))

[thecranewife88]

no one's cover can be compared to the original, but this is about as close as it gets.

[angelsara100]

i love this song so much !!!

im happy she likes it too :)

[Munchprime]

Goddesses dream of one day having a voice as beautiful as this girl's. Goddesses dream of one day being able to sing as well.

Clearly they're too busy dreaming, because they all seem to miss the best part of her. The personality.

[sixstringlover]

She is famous.. she sings that song "Maybe in the future you're gonna come back" and many other awesome ones!

[rockislifemckenna]

She is "famous" you guys.. Look up some of her originals on here. She's amazing! :)

[Shakeitupyes]

This is Birdy's cover not Bon Iver. This girl is good she shuld be famous someday.

[PleaneBean]

@Shakeitupyes she already is

[LadyTwitch]

I love this song, very well executed. ^-^

[missmelinamtz]

Love her, and love that she did this cover! She's so amazing.

[jtaylorawesome]

i want to make babies with you

[fictonalpulse00]

This video makes me weak at the knees and makes me desire your voice with every fiber of my being.

[sprtichck]

LMFAO that people don't know who she is and that she is in fact very famous, her songs are on commercials guys, look her up, yes she's amazing

[jennynieh]

yeah wtf..she's famous

[cphelpscp]

@Deborahlopez Lol u r 2 funni 4 me lol ur awsum n i luv da voice lol k33p singn n plae-in lol

[junella623]

She's gorg

[niclingenfelter]

She shakes my soul

[haydendodgemccall]

Well done, lady. Fabulous stuff. Beautiful woman, beautiful voice.

[ajasheffer]

I'm so happy you exist.



[bliimpy]

haha grammar nazi!

[lovingromance]

People! She is well known! She's not another youtube singer. She is played on the radio!

[henryjdrake95]

im only commentin so that deborahlopez will correct me

[ch3ngaa]

COOL INGRID MICHAELSON.

[tantanchik]

ummmm yea i was just about to say that... she is famous!

remember that old navy commercial..? ha but I love me some ingrid!

[Chorus42]

This is now my favorite thing in the whole world. Ingrid Michaelson + Bon Iver = GOD YES.

[1a1a2a3a]

she sounds like sarah palin

[davidaafitzsimmons]

this is absolutely amazing nothing less than that...but everything more than amazing words cannot express how beautiful your voice is

[pineapplesRyummie]

kind of a grammarnazi

[DARKERRAVEN]

Ummm...Ingrid Michaelson is very famous. You folks are funny!

[Sara10393]

oh my god, I love her. she's one of my favorite singers but i've never heard her do this cover. amazing.

[dustymsays22]

It's overwhelming when a good artist does an amazing cover of another amazing artist. Two versions of the same song swelling in passion is never a bad thing though.

[krunchykrunchy]

youre awesome

[JBGuard02]

Hey I saw you in Clearwater, FL! Awesome, talented and funny :) warmed my heart.

[axelrodxx]

What's with all the spelling corrections? Just say thank you!

[harrisonnantz]

calivermusic.bandcamp.com!!!!!­! Very intimate acoustic music similar to ingrid michaelson!

[AbbyTabby22]

An amazing artist covering an amazing song by another amazing artist ♥

[daisymillie97]

your so much better than the crap you get on tv WHY ARENT YOU FAMOUS!!! x

[drooliaa]

@daisymillie97 ..she is.

[Deborahlopez]

@daisymillie97 *you're

[babydoll72634]

she is famous in our house :)

[deweyyoo]

@daisymillie97 Although I appreciate your enthusiasm and passion for Ingrid Michaelson, I think you are slightly misinformed. Ingrid Michaelson, although not mainstream, is quite famous. :) And rightly so!

[RoseHighDef]

@daisymillie97 ahhaha she is famous, silly!

[kjcho80486]

@daisymillie97 haha she IS famous

[juicycouturegirlxo]

@daisymillie97 Ingrid's actually relatively famous...well maybe to the more "indie" crowd. :)

[sadiladi]

@daisymillie97 She is really famous.....

[h2opologrl95]

@daisymillie97 she is famous!!!

[agforeverandalways]

@daisymillie97 She is (: In our little world. (you won't know what I am talking about) Alot of people love Ingrid, she is famous <3

[JohnnytBouvier]

@daisymillie97 She is... Very famous.

[JohnnytBouvier]

Haha really everyone? You have never heard of Ingrid? She is famous. She is VERY famous. Get out more.

[RDBeatnik]

@JohnnytBouvier You've NEVER heard of Ingrid? You're acting like you're better than everyone because you know who she is. You're not.

[caitlinj002]

@JohnnytBouvier finally someone <3

[RandomFelix]

@daisymillie97 she is sorta famous, and has a record contract.

[sarahmw235]

@daisymillie97 lol. she famous bro.

[beautyaddict59]

@daisymillie97 Dear god, if you've never heard of Ingrid before now, you are a truly pitiable person. Have you really never heard Be OK, Turn to Stone, or You and I? I feel sorry for you.

[vivacuba7]

@daisymillie97 she is!



[lynskinator]

jesus christ you make it look so real, so easy.

TRUE MUSIC(:

[ukelivia]

HOLY SHIT your so good.

[Deborahlopez]

@ukelivia *you're

[ThePurpleNinja4209]

@Deborahlopez yes! I always want to correct people when they do that!

[NaniPukanala]

I love the little things that she did with this song. The fact that she uses a uke is one. Her random little tinkles during the chorus and her subtle echo in certain parts make this cover all the more unique.

Ingrid is phenomenal.

[LifeisforGuitar]

I feel like most Bon Iver songs are already in the perfect key for female singers to excel ;)

[JohnSmouseFilms]

I liked it and saved it to favorites before i'd even watched 5 seconds of it...

[Angie123999]

her voice is so naturally soft.

[forcedusername]

she's skipping notes

[deweyyoo]

@forcedusername Fuck you! She's an angel!

Also, when covering another artist's work, one not only has the license, but is encouraged to inject their own creativity into that piece of work; thus, making said piece of work uniquely their own. The fact that "she's skipping notes" only exemplifies the fact that she is a musician of great artistry.

Ingrid, you are a gem. I love you. And i just want you to be happy. Even if that means you're engaged to Greg Laswell and not me... :-(

[forcedusername]

@deweyyoo

actually when you skip notes it means you don't know how to play it. Saying it's uniquely their own is a total fucking cop out. She can't play it, period.

[deweyyoo]

@forcedusername As a professional musician who has come out with 3 albums within a span of 3 years, I'm absolutely certain that Ingrid Michaelson is more than adept at playing Skinny Love note for note. Someone who can compose enough songs to put out 3 successful albums in such a short amount of time is, to say the least, a good musician. She didn't just "forget" notes or "cant play them"... thats kinda stupid to say... this is most likely her interpretation and take on this particular song.

[deweyyoo]

@deweyyoo Correction, this is not "most likely" her interpretation on this song, but it is most definitely her take on this song. Look above in the video's description; Ingrid writes *****"I know this is different from the original, but we hope you enjoy the attempt. Big love from the I.M to the B.I"**** This means that Ingrid covered this song in her own style.

[deweyyoo]

@forcedusername If she was trying to recreate the song note for note, exactly how it was written, then her choice of instrumentation would've been different. She would've used an acoustic guitar (and most likely a banjo) in her cover, not a ukelele. There's no ukelele in the original, correct? The fact that she uses a ukelele shows that this is her own personal cover of this song- uniquely hers.

[Leovagirl]

@forcedusername

1. It's nearly acapella -- just her voice and a guitar.

2. It's called a cover. It's supposed to be different.

3. You're gonna get a ton of Ingrid fans mad at you now ;)

[forcedusername]

@Leovagirl

covers aren't supposed to be different, they can be, but are not SUPPOSED to be. You're just a mindless apologist for this note skipping "musician." You are the definition of not being objective.

[Warriorpoetjd8]

@forcedusername Definition of not being objective? Are you some kind of Ayn Rand humping objectivist poser? You probably think you're a hipster too.

[sefrankie]

@forcedusername oh come off it. whether she skipped some notes or not (although, in my opinion, she just made the song her own), this is brilliant. her voice and her skill are abundantly apparent. stop trollin'

[cea765]

HOLY SHIT THIS IS INCREDIBLE. I think Justin would enjoy this so much.

[emoney280]

this is awesome.



[wordcreatement]

I wish she would make a studio recorded version of this. It's lovely.

[MBS284]

thank you for this beautiful cover. keep playing and loving music!!

[Rhinomite]

I love her voice and her talent; but sadly I work at a Schnucks' owned store and they only play the same songs over and over and over again. Those songs include her "Be OK" song, Michael McDonald's anything, and The Worst of Sting (to name a few). But seriously I think she's talented, it's just too bad those stores make her look like a sellout. Anyway, she is hot, and I totally dig her cover of Skinny Love.

[hallie807]

She is famous...

[067991992]

Why aren't you famous?

[2facedninja]

@067991992 She's actually quite famous.

[animelover5076]

if she recorded this in a studio and sold this on an album, i would buy it!

[bethybooboo97]

@BonIverSUCKS

seriously? you commented on the oringinal too. just do the world a favor, and shut the fuck up, and try and appreciate the music that other people are making, ok?

[uberjuls]

Love it! Then again, I love pretty much anything that Ingrid sings. Such a gorgeous and distinctive voice.

[TruthAboutForever23]

@BonIverSUCKS lol, why are you listening to Bon Iver songs if they "Suck" so much... Are you trying to be ironic, are you a masochist, or are you a closet fan?

[AwaaayWithTheFairies]

@TruthAboutForever23 He's a troll.

[johno4me]

Her and bon iver should make babies

[Deborahlopez]

@johno4me *She

[johno4me]

@Deborahlopez Don't care, as long as they make babies

[maybelle1233]

@Deborahlopez

*Ingrid Michaelson

[TessaJohnsonMusic]

@Deborahlopez You are awesome.

[xmarykatemalenax]

@Deborahlopez With all of Bon Iver? That may take a while.

[sherulzz]

@johno4me Lol, isn't she married to Greg Laswell...

[johno4me]

@sherulzz he's just an obstacle really...kinda in the way

[coolschoolygirl260]

i love her version whoa!

[kmfritz1322]

yes



[freaaa1]

ingrid should be a grief counselor in her spare time because she could make deliver horrible news in a way that would give a person hope.

[ilubcanD]

I like your decor. ;) and you'r cover is honestly the best of herd so far.. although i do like the original better... but not because its better because of the style... and its made with professional equipment. anyways keep it up! you could get somewhere with that voice!!!

[zdfifer]

@ilubcanD trust me, she's already "somewhere." Search her. lol She is one of the best female vocalists I've ever heard and an amazing inspiration for me.

[caitlyn62442]

@ilubcanD haha google her please. :) she's simply amazing.

[artlightpaintjam]

That was beautiful! thank you x



[shadows6722]

out of all the covers on this song she is the only one i can stand to listen to. her voice is amazing.

[AlexPixieLove]

wow, her voice is lovely.

[dancinnchiccah]

[needleintheHEEY]

[beauvaishn]

[srssantana]

[Vanhaley]

She so awesome! Totally my inspiration, UKE POWER!

[stachiano]

Her voice is angel-magic.

[B1GAL95]

I love your voice but the guitar sound isn't best, amazing cover <3

[kelsothebum1]

@B1GAL95 I'm pretty sure she's playing a uke, not a guitar which is why it might sound a bit odd

[erlover3]

Where is the love button?

[fashionista780]

one word: wow! :)

[MEGHEADASAURAUS]

Your voice is just, some kind of beautiful, I can't put a genre on it. But it was absolutely lovely.

[Gabriellaella23]

I like this better than Birdie XD

[kukukachu84]

I love Ingrid, simple as that.

[MrJBP3]

Her voice is like a combination of fergie and jesus

[SafeasSound]

@MrJBP3 I freaking LOVE you whoever this is! Step Brothers FTW :D

[rwmagbag]

[JoshtheFreerunner]

[MIGHTAYsquish]

[Hugoteixeira10]

It's really good...but there's no cover that really stands up to the original...

[thequintsband]

[SannahMarie]

This is amazing.

[brielizabeth103]

My favorite female artist covering my favorite male artist's song = FREAKING AMAZING! :)

[regina10waves]

[andilovee947]

@brielizabeth103 I was thinking the EXACT same thing.

[brielizabeth103]

@andilovee947 i think they should do a duet of this at one of their concerts! :D
