Imagine the full Bon Iver album stripped like this!!!

@andrewtaylor8524 7 лет назад

Leaving out the obvious fact that he wasn't around for most of my life, I can't believe I've got to 62 and not heard this stuff! I found it by accident - it's the best accident I've ever had!

@SoulFighter27 7 лет назад

Andrew Taylor damn right :)

@VanGoNow 6 лет назад

I took me 57 damn years, this sounds so much like Leonard Cohen one minute then Bruce Springsteen and then goddamned if it isn't just the pure genre shattering genius of Justin Vernon.

Check out all his albums and check out volcano choir too. That's his other band. Unbelievable. He has become my favorite artist and im a working musician. Not saying this lightly. He's the man

@stoneyhudson 8 лет назад

Genius, just plain genius. So much skill, so much emotion, so much life. Justin Vernon is truly a revolutionary, one of a kind.

@ChristinaRedd 8 лет назад

The first word that came to mind for me was "genius". I scrolled down and You beat me to it. Haha!

@Clockles87 8 лет назад

This version of Calgary absolutely destroys me, wringing out my heart like a dishrag full of water.... I just cried at work. Such a range of emotions.....good God.

Schaden freude I think? Some German phrase I don't remember

@RockinMidnightMoon 6 лет назад

hehe Schadenfreude is when someone is getting hurt and you're laughing about that :D (Schaden = damage, freude = joy) I'm sorry but we germans neither have a word for this sadly happy feeling (although I'm longing for one)

@carolapuddu7829 8 лет назад

This is one hell of performance! I love how he's always changing his way of playing those limited number of songs. It's been 8 years and I still could listen to every song forever, and that's because they're still in evolution. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

@klausfaerevaag 8 лет назад

@Jacob32905 7 лет назад

I love this guy's songwriting. It's just this super deconstructed imagery. It sounds exactly like a memory. Not too much detail. Just a vibe or presence. Half spoken words. All of it. Absolutely brilliant .

@manodangus 8 лет назад

this is the kind of music that stops everything around and brings you tears of...beauty. What a pearl, what a soul, what a musician. I'm happy we live on the same world.

@LeonnTsang 8 лет назад

its incredible how many octaves he has in this song, so beautifully arranged!

@paralyz3r00 7 лет назад

One of three songs that give me the feeling like I'm listening to it for the first time all over again every time I hear it. The original is great but this...this haunts me

@PotatoIsNotCute 8 лет назад

That harmonica is God-like. To be honest, I actually kind of prefer this version to the original. This is road trip music through and through. Half-hoping that he records this at some point. I also really have to point out how much I love that he sings the last line into his harmonica to make it sound like it's distorting and fading. God I love this man.

@Clockles87 8 лет назад

I actually feel like this is the definitive version of this song

@michaelfell1601 8 лет назад

YES! The voice-thru-harmonica ending was the most genius/splendid thing I've seen/heard in a minute

@alexanderkenniethbam 7 лет назад

@wearemedia8212 7 лет назад

You should listen to the Ghost of Tom Joad album of Bruce Springsteen, full of that kind of harmonica music.

Absolutely in love with this version. He created a completely new song, which is equally as good as the original. I wish I had half as much vision as this man has.

When I grow I wanna Bon Iver so much!! Just when I found the acoustic version of Calgary & deemed it the best version I find this harmonica blessed performance. Long Live Justin Vernon! Long live Bon Iver !!

@ruiferreira6884 6 лет назад

@brianneperez6987 7 лет назад

Justin Vernon.... you are one of the most wonderful, beautiful, musical souls on this planet. Your music takes many of us to different places. Forever grateful for you.

@cachipunlabcreativo8404 7 лет назад

This version of Calgary is the best accident of the year. And that harmonica is just gold. Thanks!

@matthewbehnke280 7 лет назад

As much as I love the album version (as well as some other live versions), this one blows all the others out of the water. I was absolutely floored the first time I heard/saw this. Given that it's Justin Vernon, I shouldn't be surprised by the quality of anything he touches, but DAMN. This is what perfect music and musicianship sounds like.

@jonathanwhitcomb3735 8 лет назад

This is probably the only time I have heard that old DeYarmond Edison sound fused with the Bon Iver we are used to. I thought this version worked incredibly

@GodeadorgdR 3 года назад

Going through a break up right now, with what was and is the best girl I've ever met. Days are weird and numb. Some better, some worse. This song has been on my head through the last days on loop. Can't say it's helping very much but at least gives me company through the hard times. Thank you Bon Iver ❤️

i like his lyrics, you cant really understand what its about without very carefully listening to it over and over, and then still it doesnt tell you what its really about, it relates to you specifically.

@matthewforrest2208 5 лет назад

@brianneperez6987 5 лет назад

Justin, You take me back to the first place I fell in love in. Your voice takes me back to being 18, in college, in Seattle. Hearing you sing brings back the images of the ocean, the laughter I had with friends, and rhe beauty of the Pacific Northwest. You take me back.
