Bon Iver!!!

I have to dedicate an entire music post to Bon Iver. I can't even contain myself- they are so good! I've been a fan for awhile, but i'm listening to their music a lot more now because it's such great music to study/ work in, it's calming, and it's great for when it rains.

The first song is Skinny Love:

The natural feel to this song is so calming. Also, his vocals are perfect.

Secondly, Flume is another great song. Every note speaks for itself, and the song itself is so moving and has so much meaning. Their is a wonderful overtone of profound loneliness that is touching.

Holocene is a song from his 2011 album. Their is a bit more background sound to this, but it sticks to their previous works of meaningful lyrics combined with striking lyrics and complex and breathtaking sound. 

Lastly, this song is also from their recent album. "Can't make you love me" is a cover of Bonnie Raitt's original song. I already loved her version- I actually did a cover of it myself and I know how hard it is to convey the meaning of the song. The lyrics of this song have always spoken to me and I can easily relate to them. Bon Iver has taken the song and made it completely made it their own- and I love it. It sends shivers down my spine! 

It's really hard to choose songs from Bon Iver. I listen to whole albums daily(you can listen to all of the first album on youtube in a single video)- which is rare for me because I tend to not like listening to entire albums. Bon Iver is a musical masterpiece and genius of this age. 

With love,
