  1. I went through Paris in 2014 listening to this song and I swear, nothing will ever be close to the feeling it created unless somehow you were one of the very lucky few who were there…

  2. Emma, as i guess, is a state of mind. Once you're in it, it will never let you go. You'll have to learn to deal with it and get to know the beautiful sides of melancholy so one day, you'll learn to enjoy it and spread your love again in a more empathatic and sensitive way than ever before.

  3. I don't make this up: i watched this video a 100 times being a big bon iver fan. when i went to paris the first time, i didn't know where this was filmed. we booked an appartement via airbnb, and i remember it felt weird going up that little staircase to the appartment. once we got in, and back out, it felt even weirder. i somehow knew this place. after walking around the district, i remembered the locations from this video and actually we BOOKED AN APPARTMENT IN THIS VERY building the video takes place in the beginning. this was such a funny coincidence.

  4. This was the first album I listened to in full I was in a treatment center when I was like 11 and we’d have to drive like an hour to get to the doctors office so one of the staff would play this for why we were driving through the mountains

  5. this whole album, especially this song, has helped me to understand what real love is.
    i've already met my emma, and she's already gone,
    but fortunately she has introduced me this album for the first time,
    so it's like if she had gave me the keys, for then lock her door.
    for emma, forever ago.
    so much love from italy to all the people that are struggling with love.
    i know that one day we'll be able to open that door.
    and it will be fine. we'll be fine.

  6. The fella at 0:59 looks like Jesse Sandoval, the drummer from the Shins…
    At a riper age.

    And the staircase they’re walking down @ 0:10 looks equivalent to the ones the Shins are walking up… in part ll of their A Take Away show.

    Whatever.

  7. I am 14 years old in 7 days. My step father introduced this video to me when I was in 1st grade."he was still my mom's boyfriend at the time"
    A few years later they got married and he became my legal stepfather.
    Every year maybe once or twice, we will be in the car and this song gets brought up.
    We put the song on full volume and we sing along with it.
    .Last Christmas I got a guitar and thos was the first song I ever WANTED to learn. I plan to one day be able to play it with him. It truly makes me happy when I hear this song. And it really changed my life.
    And I will never forget the day my dad showed me it.

  8. I used to listen this full album on 2017 everyday… One of the all time greats, it is a sensation, a feeling, a relationship you can't get back to, a special time to be alive and exist in time which will forever live on through this beautiful beautiful touching melodies

  9. Imagine being that group of people who run away from Bon Iver and awkwardly acting like you don’t hear the amazing music. My god I love this video. I’ve watched it like 50 times over the last 5 years.

  10. i found myself walking up a very steep hill after a day of very steep hills. and there i was walking up the same steps there in motemarte. Those trees are still there, that vibe is still there, that place is alive. 14 years and still going

  11. I miss indie music in 2009. It really wasn’t that long ago, but the scene made you feel like you were part of something different, especially now with how accessible music is you truly had to research music back than and I miss that
