Don’t know how I missed this video! Still get shivers at 3:20. Epic video.

Official video for Bon Iver’s “Towers”. Strange it only has so few views, one of the best songs off the album IMO, really beautiful video too.

As Justin explained what it’s about ”‘Towers’ is the name of the dormitory that I lived in in college; it’s made up of these two towers – North and South – my girlfriend lived in one and I lived in the other. It’s about falling in love, but also about what happens when you’ve long fallen out of love and those reminders are still there. You drive by them, these two buildings, and you look, and you realise that we really built that up That we really built that love into these things, and for a long time afterward looking at them really made me feel sad; to see these empty buildings that I don’t go in to anymore. But then, as time goes on, they start to become kind of joyous in their own way: you can look at them and think ‘that love was great and these buildings still stand tall’. But there’s also an element of the fact that they’re just buildings – they’re gonna fall down one day, and they’re not that important because there’s new love in your life and you’ve got to break things down that get built up.”

Man, I am so happy to hear this:

Justin Vernon covering Bob Dylan’s “With God on Our Side,” , performed with reverence and relevance the other night in Portland, Oregon. Hear Bon Iver’s inspired cover — complete with Justin Vernon in his lower register voice and glorious trumpet solos — above.

i couldn’t see him perform this live
