I was supposed to see them in Amsterdam with my then GF, but covid came and the event was cancelled. a year later my depression started getting worse, it got to a point that it affected our relationship. Now we are broken up and I keep singing and playing this song on my guitar, crying as I do it, thinking back to all our memories... It's hard to keep going but I know I will beat my depression one day Update: May 2024: I won
How is it going now? Beter? Hope you will be able to find yourself back. You can overcome. Stay strong. Go out and meet people. Blijf praten. The world is tough now, but this song is full of love and hope. Wish you a speedy recovery.
I know 3 years have been gone. I do love this performance, but can you please explain why Glastonbury has those annoying flags on the long poles?? Just has been bugging me for years! I don't know why or even who?
The first time I came across Bon Iver was seeing this performance on a Glastonbury highlights show on the BBC back in 2009. Blew me away then, takes me back to that time when I listen now.
Come on skinny love just last the year Pour a little salt we were never here My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer I tell my love to wreck it all Cut out all the ropes and let me fall My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my Right in the moment this order's tall And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And in the morning I'll be with you But it will be a different kind And I'll be holding all the tickets And you'll be owning all the fines Come on skinny love, what happened here? Suckle on the hope in light brassieres My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my Sullen load is full, so slow on the split And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And now all your love is wasted And then who the hell was I? And I'm breaking at the britches And at the end of all your lines Who will love you? Who will fight? Who will fall far behind?
Thank you for uploading this! I remember watching it in '09 on telly with my Dad and it stopped both of us in our tracks for 4mins with us both agreeing at the end, "fuckin hell, that was good, wont it?!" High praise indeed! 😂 Fantastic performance, even better than the album version IMO
I heard the Vanic remix of Birdys cover first and thought that was the only version out. A year later it dawned on me it was a remix. Then I heard the non remix version by Birdy. I then realised Birdy did a cover. I love all three versions of the song. And the live versions by Bon just sound so pure. The emotion is raw. Thank you for uploading this.
Thank you thank you so muchhh! I was finding this version from last few months. And struggling. Literally found now from insta ad comments. Wow just wow!!!❤️❤️❤️ Thank you again.
Skinny Love Lyrics Bon Iver Come on skinny love just last the year Pour a little salt we were never here My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer I tell my love to wreck it all Cut out all the ropes and let me fall My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my Right in the moment this order's tall And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And in the morning I'll be with you But it will be a different "kind" And I'll be holding all the tickets And you'll be owning all the fines Come on skinny love, what happened here? Suckle on the hope in light brassiere My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my Sullen load is full, so slow on the split And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And now all your love is wasted And then who the hell was I? And I'm breaking at the britches And at the end of all your lines Who will love you? Who will fight? Who will fall far behind?
Don't worry, Bon Iver is a legend and Skinny Love is one of those songs that are simply perfect like they are, don't get me wrong birdy cover is good, but the original one is just breathtaking.
Sometimes I wonder... if I love Justin's songs or I just love his existence itself. When his songs are sung by others they lose their meaning and worth. And I would love songs of others if Justin sing them. Maybe I do love to touch his soul through his creations. Don't worry, here is a person who don't know Birdy.
You can also look at it in a positive way; exposure! I never heard of Bon Iver before and indeed thought this song was by Birdy. But without Birdy and her cover I would've never discovered Bon Iver.
Ummm Justin, You froze me My hands are on my phone and I’m barely breathing right and blinking insanely in between my flipping eyeballs popping out of my dang head Jesus are you kidding me. Justin were you aware of this I’m sure I was but what the F
Ummmmm Justin, So yes I must be quite careful with you Very much so 👀ummm yep absolutely in yours and mines best interest and that’s even with our clothes still on And yep I absolutely thought that what in the F*** Jesus I’ve probably wrote that in the past and s*** our playlist is clearly unsafe for me 👀
Wtf is this audience? Never seen so many dysgenic looking people in one place, at one time. Were they purposefully only filming closeups of the sick and weak or something?
god i hate festivals. music is so personal and just looks so out of place when its played to thousands of people at once. a shared experience is overrated. save your money and buy a car or something.
Come on, skinny love, just last the year Pour a little salt, we were never here My my my, my my my, my my Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer I tell my love to wreck it all Cut out all the ropes and let me fall My my my, my my my, my my Right in this moment, this order's tall And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And in the morning I'll be with you But it will be a different kind And I'm holding all the tickets And you'll be owning all the fines Come on, skinny love, what happened here? Suckle on the hope in light brassieres My my my, my my my, my my Sullen load is full, so slow on the split And I told you to be patient And I told you to be fine And I told you to be balanced And I told you to be kind And now all your love is wasted And then who the hell was I? And I'm breaking at the breaches And at the end of all your lines Who will love you? Who will fight? Who will fall far behind?
