I will always come back to this video, year after year. Kristian has put so much work into his music, and it's so special to see him at this earlier point as compared to where he is now.
An incredible and beautiful talent. Our own Dylan for this era! Only discovered TMOE at the end of 2012 and have sat mesmerized checking his stuff out ever since. Hope to God he plays London some time in 2013.
Just look at how he sings with his eyes, he becomes the music. He moves with the music, as if for a while he is stripped bare, and there is nothing but a wash of invisible. He is the music; the music is him. It runs through his veins with such passion.
you are obviously not aware of TTMOE i take it. You say he has "potential"... 2 EPs and 3 studio albums and he only has potential? I think its fair to say that he has surpassed any potential. 2 million views on RUclips and playing gigs all around the world is more than enough.
He's not mainstream though. I build my opinion on the amount of views he has, and the number of his videos on RUclips. Plus, it was very hard to find TTMOE. I love this artist. I want to hear his songs on the radio!!!
Its a good thing that he's not mainstream... he's not manufactured or lacking control of his music in any way! And like i said 2 million views on his most popular video is quite an achievment. I love TTMOE but i wouldnt want him to be any more/less popular
True that. I don't want him to change at all. I hope that he keeps making truly great music. I will keep listening. It fills my soul with joy and happiness.
ChippyDinner idk if you haven't found it seven months later but this is a pretty accurate tab of this live version tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/t/the_tallest_man_on_earth/over_the_hills_ver2_tab.htm
@kvsuprise hmm I really love Bon Iver and Tallest Man On Earth, but I don't think that collab would work out well. I much rather see him do one with Laura Marling. AND most of all: Fleet Foxes plus Leisure Society! :)
as amazing as I think both are in their own respect, I doubt their music would blend well... a barrage of fiery emotion running wild + abstract dreams floating on a bed of fluffy sounds = ???
Hundred times I have watch this still love it to bits.

this song exceeds the defenition of brilliance.
love this song so much...it speaks to a part deep hidden in myself..
That's what I call music. No autotune, just talent.
This man is my favorite person ever.
music in its purest form.
Just look at how he sings with his eyes, he becomes the music. He moves with the music, as if for a while he is stripped bare, and there is nothing but a wash of invisible. He is the music; the music is him. It runs through his veins with such passion.
Great lyrics. Love the sound of that guitar.
I think he's got lots of potential.

Agreed!!
Best version ever!!!
Forget collabs. TTMOE's sound is perfect the way it is.
Sublime.....I’m going over the hills now love ♥️
so i just discovered this guy.....wonderful! reminds me of mumford and sons
oh god, you can just see his face when he's creating amazing music
If I saw him performing on the some random street, I'd give him my wallet
i'd give him my fucking credit card dude
This man is so musically talented its not even funny his picking patterns are incredible
i think that's exactly the combination we need. would be bliss.
That is exactly what i was doing this evening... so relaxing. :)
I like this song way too much.
Fuck I love this man.
Thank you for uploading this :) cheers, Finn!
love.
sep 5th i shall finally see him live!!
Powerful
This guy is Bob Dylan'ing hard and that's a compliment.
i know. i guess it's just the type of sound to me sort of. both great.
This must be what heaven feels like...
@maximus50238 the first ep! it's self-titled.
@kvrurprise kristian actually toured with bon iver in 08 for a while, you could even go as far as to say he got his start with bon iver
Reminds me of my uncle when he was in his 20s
The world is not ready for that, not yet.
This is so accurate.
Dylan legacy
Did this song develop into "The Sparrow and the Medicine"? It certainly sounds fairly similar.
i heard that too
The 7 people that disliked this video couldn't hear over the wind
@kvsuprise Never thaught of it, but hell yeah!
I wish to Christ he'd come to Atlanta, Georgia. He's amazing.
definitely just found the next song i wanna cover. haha what album is this song on? i only have shallow grave
@LaylaGitan
I wish so too!
2019
I think they played in a concert in new york together
Anyone happen to have tabbed this? or know where i could find a tab for this version?, also what tunings is it in? Amazing version of this song,
ChippyDinner idk if you haven't found it seven months later but this is a pretty accurate tab of this live version
tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/t/the_tallest_man_on_earth/over_the_hills_ver2_tab.htm
anyone else think he looks like a puppet with those skinny legs dangling round in the wind?
Actually he was in first part of Bon Iver concert at a time!
If he and Samantha Crain would collab that would be awesome
where did you find this video? i need more live versions of his songs like this
They actually did a tour together back in 2008 i think

2:47 That is all.
Vice versa
A half an hour?
I absolutely love his music. I really wish he would lost the stache though!
i suppose. to each their own
2:35 - Smoke much? ;)
sounds like paolo nutini
DakotaaaaaZ!
they toured together...
do you know who im talking about even? and i just mean in voice
if you pretend that he's standing instead of sitting, he looks like a mini man
I'm a straight guy and I'd let him do stuff to me. You know, paint my nails, cut my hair, deep-tissue massage; stuff like that.
@alexoxx nah
Still lol
this is Senna in your profile pic?
Hipster level 100000 unlocked
Why would i have commented on it if i didn't know who he is ??
I simply hear no resemblence
7 people live in a cave
kinda looks like Matt Damon
Bon Iver has nothing on Matsson.
marry me.
@alexoxx GET OUT!
Guys, meet my future husband,
lol he's way out of their league
I respectfully disagree.
Both are awesome, but i'm not following you here ??
black and white acoustic guitar solos are yucky and i don't like his timbre its insincere.
Your yucky
