I was driving home after talking to a guy I met in the spring of 2011 when we were both about to turn 20. We'd hung out a good bit that summer, and I remember one afternoon, after talking to him all day, I was driving the 50 mile ride home and realized I loved him (and that he was the first person I'd ever truly loved). This song had just come on the radio because the album was debuting, and it played with the windows rolled down and the smell of grass and honeysuckle coming through as these new emotions swirled in my chest. 7 years later those opening notes still hit me like a sack of bricks and it takes me right back to my Volvo station wagon, the smell of summer, and how good it felt to have his arms around me. We never started dating, but remained friends until we fell apart from each other for a while due to life. I got engaged, broke up. He dated girls, broke up with them. Last spring we reconnected like no time had passed. We're getting married next year and I'll be walking down the aisle to this. It's the highlight on the soundtrack of my life. Thank you, Justin. Edit: Wow, thank you all for your kind words! It's July 2021 and we're still going strong. He's the best thing that's ever happened to me. Keep your head up if you haven't found your one yet, they're out there 😁

My brother showed me this song in 2011 and he said that it reminded him of our late Father. I instantly fell in love with it (even though I didn’t understand the meaning of the lyrics) and it always would make me think of my brother for showing me this song. In March, my brother passed and when I play this song it brings me to tears every time. To my big brother, you will always be a part of me, and unfortunately apart from me..

[@jamestheredd]

The harmonies on this version are something special.

[@zacharyjohns1157]

Jack Kanov yeah you don’t know how “auto tune” works then.

[@zacharyjohns1157]

Jack Kanov well, for one, you conflated pitch correction with auto---tune, so there’s that. Secondly, the minor intonations of his voice aren’t being matched in the harmonies. A backing track, sure maybe. So yeah, Did I educated you?

[@aubakian9422]

The harmonies are live here. I assume he's singing with Sean Carey, Mike Noice and Matthew McCaughan. If you're referring to the "Messina" that they use on tracks from the new record - Vernon isn't using that here. This is obvious because Vernon has his hands full with a guitar here. The Messina is a kind of live instrument triggered through a keyboard that shifts the vocal mic live into a harmonic based on the key being played.

[@zacharyjohns1157]

Jack Kanov you are conflating the two. Auto tune uses pitch correction, yes. But every recording studio in the world uses pitch correction. Does that mean every recorded band sounds like T Pain since pitch correction and auto tune are the same thing? DUMBFUCK.

[@zacharyjohns1157]

Jack Kanov you said it was a “harmony box I.e. fake” Way to change your argument instead of admitting you were wrong.

[@tiff8683]

The moment the camera caught that guy in the audience crying and he looked up, saw he was being recorded and laughed - then you see Justin saw it and was smiling too Idk, it was a perfect second of connection that felt (to me) like what this song is about - all the insignificant moments that are both tiny and monumental at the same time

[@woahwoahwalter]

I was playing this song when I got into my first car wreck. I got hit… and this song was still on and playing… in that moment when it all happened and it was still playing after… I just felt like it was all going to be okay… thank you Justin.

Just came across this song again, 8 and a half years after the guy I was dating went to see Bon Iver in concert. Almost 9 years later and I’m still with the same guy, married, and about to welcome our son into the world. Lying in bed listening to this whilst my baby is moving around in my belly has brought tears to my eyes.

Just you walking around the park, saw the people around there. And happy. Especially, i remembered the time when i walked out with my grandma. And now she had a better place. My tears falls down when i listening this song again.. when the song just came out. I saw it on youtube, when my grandma cooked me some pizza... Goodbye grandma. rest in peace.. itz been 1 years since you gone.

[@Oliverwinther1]

I was totally the dude crying in the crowd last year in Copenhagen!!!

[@inakiesnaolabogado720]

I wanted to share a story with all you. I’m Chilean, and the first time I came upon bon iver was in 2012, with this song actually. I remember browsing through the music channels on my tv and Holocene came along. I fell in love instantly with the music. Ever since, his music has been by my side through very hard times. It’s almost impossible to describe in words the power of his music. Anyways, I was lucky enough to travel this year to Minnesota to visit family. My uncles offered us tickets to any concert we (me and my little brother) wanted to go while we were here. We saw that Bon Iver was playing during the time we were going to be there. But the tickets were sold out. We went anyways to watch from the street. But my brother (who’s a real cheecky bastard) figured a way of getting us tickets with people who were leaving the concert. We entered through the side and walked up to almost the first row. It was truly sublime. I couldn’t believe what was happening. When Bon Iver took out the acoustic guitar and started playing the beautiful arpeggio intro of Holocene I bursted into tears. I cried the whole song. It was a dream come true. I just want to thank you Justin for your music. I’ll never forget that day.

[@ValeGAdonis13]

Omg i’m chilean too!! Soy de viña del mar, escuché a Justin Vernon cuando tenía 12 años y ahora tengo 17. Me encanta, es un maestro y su música nunca deja de provocarme cosas en mi interior.

Ahora tengo 28 y espero que con toda la ola de músicos que vienen a tocar, nos toque algún día Justin Vernon. Saludos chilenos! And this is one of my favorite songs, it makes me sad and in love, and sad again, and happy and a lot of things haha.

Thanks for reminding myself on my own advice now and again guys. You all are deserving of all the kindness in this world, if not for just to have checked in with a stranger. Bless you. Living by a recently adopted mantra really helped me see that we are all weak and vulnerable in more ways than we choose to admit or choose to show (ourselves, and most importantly those other that matter to us). Continuing to entrench my capacity for empathy and not fall for 'first assumptions' on life, circumstances and people have been... life-changing. The mantra? "Assume others' positive intent. Respond in kind. Have compassion."

[@wolfborn4967]

@@rayhere7925 how's life been for you mate? Wanted to check in on a stranger :) I think you'll find many a friend in these comments who also wish they'd love themselves just a tad bit more. I'm one of them. It's also the same reason why I love this song so much. I think the true realization of 'not being magnificent' can be confronting for some people, but to me it's one of the most liberating realizations possible. We're all just humans. Trying to make it through life. Trying to do well and wanting to be important and to matter. And in doing so, I think we often hold ourselves to unrealistic standards of being 'important' or 'grand'. Whereas in reality, it is totally fine to not be magnificent and just live a 'small', 'unimportant' life where we prioritize happiness, love, and kindness for ourselves and the people directly surrounding us. I don't know, maybe I'm just rambling, but I've find so much solace in this song and the realization that comes with it. I hope maybe it helps you as well to be a bit more kind to yourself and I hope you're doing well, friend.

I live for videos like this one: impeccable musical performance, absolutely immaculate in every second of it...and then there's people's comments to them - I can learn so much about a moment that someone had lived while I'm listening to this song. Every person is like a universe of stories that never end. It's breathtaking to know that this beautiful music has special place in so many hearts.

How does it feel to write the greatest song ever?

Whether on the stage or in a cemetery the man fiqures out how to capture the acoustics perfectly and resonate every sounds, His performance in Paris still haunts me in a good way!!

Had it not been for watching the film "The Judge" I would have totally missed this awesome song. I have to say I can't stop playing it, especially at night in bed alone with my thoughts and memories of the good times and bad. The song makes me sad but it also makes me incredibly grateful and happy with life. Not many songs can do that!

Wow! Incredible performance.

[@keystoneguardian7543]

[@benbattams5391]

I've been through the hardest times and the best times of my life with this song almost as a soundtrack. It has the ability to take you to the greatest of highs but the lowest of lows. Just an incredible artist.

[@doonormann9794]

This track is my phone ringstone. like that, I can't forget the beauty of this title

[@branzenraca1972]

I could listen to this masterpiece for all eternity.

[@theonlinemeltingpot]

I can only think it mucic from the the following: Another dimesion, the future, heaven, and possibly from this one amazing guy. Justin Vernon. It just shows how he can make you just start sobbing and feeling like some sort of blessed human. Even he makes an 11 year old feel that way. Thanks Justin. YOUR SMALLEST BIGGEST FAN!

Bon Iver's performance at Rock the Garden took everyone's breath away, especially when *they played "Holocene" from *their self-titled album near the end of *their set.

[@monsieurconrad]

«Ben Howard» & «Bon Iver» - are some of the best experiences in My Life!

[@whitrobinson]

The world is a better place with Justin's music in it. ❤
