CON-GRA-TU-LA-TIONS! One of those songs that you wanna have forever. I have some in my life from Beirut, Radiohead, Coldplay, Kings of Convenience, and José González, among a few others, that I need. You are definitely among them too. Thank you, guys. It's clear it was absolutely not easy to develop such curve. Please don't stop and best luck ever! You got us.
That guy is Matt McCaughan who has been in several bands like Portatastic and Rosebuds and who is the brother of Mac McCaughan of Superchunk (who also happened to found Merge Records, home to Arcade Fire and Neutral Milk Hotel among others). A real good drummer if you heard him over the years.
i find it interesting how Bon Iver have different versions of the same song. Seen it with lump sum.. and seen it with calgary.. i found an acoustic version totally different from the albumn version.
Cuando vienen al sur... Los esperamos muchos en Argentina muchachos!!!! Son una verdadera maravilla. Cuando todo esta inventado ustedes saltan de la nada con un estilo solo suyo... Los queremos ver en vivo! When are you coming to the south? ... We´re waiting for you here in Argentine!... Your music is original when everthing is already invented. Please we want to see you in a show here!
and the LaBlogotheque ones.. lol but lets be real everytime you listen to it whether its the studio or these ones THEY'RE the best it's like the first time making love everytime you listen to them, so much raw passion and emotion that you never forget it.. haha wut did eye jus say?!
@morman29 Broadly it's just because Coldplay's music appeals to a wider range of people. After all, popularity and talent are rarely parallel. To your taste, this is the better music, and I agree, but really it's subjective. Bon Iver (for me) is one of the most talented musicians in history, but at the same time as a lover of music I appreciate the talents bands like Coldplay possess, even though I'd be more likely to enjoy Bon Iver.
Sold my cold knot, a heavy stone Sold my red horse for a venture home To vanish on the bow Settling slow Fit it all, fit it in the doldrums Or so the story goes Color the era Film it as historical My mile could not pump the plumb In my arbor 'till my ardor trumped Every inner inertia Lump sum All at once rushing from the sump-pump Or so the story goes Balance we won't know We will see when it gets warm
@lieinmygrave That's a horrific thing to say. Nick Drake was dead by 26 and hadn't recorded in last three years. He was a depressed, bedroom bound wreck and his records sold a pittance in his lifetime. Justin is already 29 and his career is going from strength to strrength. Let's just enjoy his beautiful music.
@morman29 They are famous, my friend! Just because something is not incestuously played on the radio and on MTV doesn't mean that it isn't big, they are actually one of the top grossing independent bands right now.
is there any way to get the footage of these few songs in DVD quality? I'd love to be able to stick it on the TV once in a while - amazing music, really touching.
@lieinmygrave Fair enough - apologies for that. I wrongly assumed it was the type of werid fan-driven fatalist fantasy you see from time to time. I have a feeling Bon Iver will be appreciated just fine in his lifetime. For one thing, he's a very confident and competent peformer and can tour his material. Nick developed a phobia of performing live and didn't have the benefit of the internet as an avenue to promote his genius.
@goldfishwars that is not at all what I meant, I'm sorry you misunderstood. Nick Drake was a great songwriter who wasn't really appreciated for what he did till much later. Fortunately Bon Iver is nothing of the sort, but I see the two as similar song writers who will be appreciated 20 years from now. I clearly did not wish death upon Bon Iver, that would be senseless and stupid

One genius, one near-genius and two fabulous musicians. Doesn't get any better.

I just take the IV out of Bon Iver and that's what I get when I listen to this.
This is a good comment hahah
God bless you for having to foresight to record this and upload it to the RUclips Time Machine
These myspace transmissions and Daytrotter sessions are the best ones by far..
i find it interesting how Bon Iver have different versions of the same song. Seen it with lump sum.. and seen it with calgary.. i found an acoustic version totally different from the albumn version.
+Simon0 The version of Calgary you mentioned is pure bliss. Oh how I wish he used that baritone vocal more often.
yeah i like both voices really the low and the falsetto. falsetto makes him a bit more unique i think compared to other male singers.
Justin has said that he hates playing the song the same way twice, so he changes it every time they play live.
i miss the old bon iver... times are a changing, hopefully they go back to this soon
9 years later... you get what you want?
@@coleshwayder6094 Haha I still listen to Bon Iver, so I guess I've been satisfied!
This is music. This is Bon Iver.
I'm wanna cry , so good!
Bon Iver are in another league. Period.
this music is sooooo chilll

Wow; amazing!
Sold my cold knot, a heavy stone
Sold my red horse for a venture home
To vanish on the bow
Settling slow
Fit it all, fit it in the doldrums
Or so the story goes
Color the era
Film it as historical
My mile could not pump the plumb
In my arbor 'till my ardor trumped
Every inner inertia
Lump sum
All at once rushing from the sump-pump
Or so the story goes
Balance we won't know
We will see when it gets warm
Thats a band who creates music from the deep deep inside.. you cant just come up with that on a whim..
he has one brother, and he's not in the band, but he does manage the tour when they're in the US
I agree

@itstastybacon it's a vibraphone. and if you're willing to spend 1,000+ dollars, lots of places.
That is one decked out drum set!
hahaha....i haven't laughed out loud at a comment in years...well done
@morman29 They are famous, my friend! Just because something is not incestuously played on the radio and on MTV doesn't mean that it isn't big, they are actually one of the top grossing independent bands right now.
this is after-life.
that was an interesting version!
if i had one ounce of their skill id be a happy happy man.
@zahaiyah same for me ... so powerful...
Angelic voice, nuf said
is there any way to get the footage of these few songs in DVD quality? I'd love to be able to stick it on the TV once in a while - amazing music, really touching.
such an amazing song,.. does anyone know what guitar justin's using?
Someone can help me to dowload this song please. I can't find it.
Great music....Too many commercials. I'll find another channel.
does anyone know what guitar the lead singer is using?
@lieinmygrave Fair enough - apologies for that. I wrongly assumed it was the type of werid fan-driven fatalist fantasy you see from time to time.

Doea anyone know where I can download/ purchase these recordings (can you get them from myspace??). thanks.
no its just him on the album
I am in LOVE with Justin.. but I'd kinda marry the bassist too.
is the young guy playing the gretsch playing a 6 string bass or a guitar?
this man is going to be the Nick Drake 20 years from now
okay, so is that other guitarist playing a solid body taylor with a bigsby? because that would be bad ass
is that justins brother on drums?
@badcreaturesmusic ok thanks but it looked like he was picking it like a bass
s carey can xylophone
hell yeah. he was going in with those little patterns at the end. such a creative guy
+eamisagomey yeah awesome xylophone in last minute!
+eamisagomey He graduated as a classical percussion major in college
They're called glockenspiels
@@justinbellavia4352 *vibraphone
@sarahholic Bon Iver = Champagne....

nah justin played everything on the album
sold the lot fit it in family life
dunno what the fook hes saying but it sounds mint.
the second guitarist looks like the kid from gummo all grown up
I never liked the xylophone in this kind of music But i like the song
one person must have had an IBS flare up while watching this i guess
where can i get a xylophone that sounds like that. seriously.
@morman29 let's not compare Bon Iver to Coldplay, shall we? It's like comparing champagne to cola... worlds apart.
money..
BASS THAT GUITAR UP
Leukemia?
comparing them to coldplay doesnt even make sense...different genre, different country, different audience
its a reverend
so minty, he should sell gum...
xylophone is incredibly unnessecary and takes away from the whole thing.
***** yes babe you are right
vibraphone, not xylophone... though I agree!
i disagree bud
