I saw this live and I still regularly come back to this video. It was chilling and beautiful live and nothing will compare to it. Having this video as a preservation of that duet is amazing.

2018 and still listening? and still complaning that there is not a proper recorded version of this song by justin. and i am pretty sure that there won't be one since he has passed that era interms of musical style. this version is rare, raw and this is why it is so special. beautiful beautiful love song.

I have a live recording of this song that I believe is the best version of which I'm aware. It's from July 27, 2008 at the Cape Cinema in Dennis, MA. A unique and special venue. Without question the best show I have ever seen and know I will never come close to again. They did this song at the end as they normally did. But due to the very small size of the venue (capacity is 300, seated) and the unique acoustics, they did it without mics or amps, off stage, standing in the audience walkway stage-right. Justin plays acoustic guitar, there are no other instruments. Phil and Beth from the Bowerbirds accompany along with the rest of Bon Iver. The harmonies in this version are, in my opinion, the best they've done - ever (including stuff they've done with The Staves, which is saying a lot). The version posted here is great, and special because it features Sarah. But it suffers the same shortcomings every recording I've encountered has. I'm familiar with about two dozen versions of this song from this era and they are all camera phone recordings. Camera phone recordings from 2008 were not great at video or audio - no less both. The version I have is audio only but was captured with a Sony PCM-D50. Combined with the amazing acoustics of the venue and an exceptionally well behaved audience it delivers what I believe is the best version of this song I've ever found. I do still hold out hope that someone made a professional recording from this same night and it will come to light one day. I will try to post it in the next week or two and will edit this comment with a link when I've had a chance to do so.

Everything went final about 3 weeks ago. I've been through crappy situations concerning girlfriends or even losing my freedom when I was younger due to my immature behavior at the time .. But this is the first true "heartbreak" I've experienced .. and it's painful. But I have to come at it from the point of view that everything happens for a reason. Life isn't only about feeling the good moments, but also just as much about going through the pain, heartache, & fear driven situations.

I think she's playing dropped D or DADGBD with the capo at 7th, while Bon Iver is playing at second. Really, really lovely.

@kimster825 It's a good thing that these people are not as popular as 50c. Their music is more individualistic and intellectual than the run of the mill stuff in BUSINESS industry, I mean music industry. Plus there's the benefit of not being forced to listen to the same shit 100 times a day unnecessarily! That ruins any music. I don't think these guys would appreciate the invasion of privacy and degree o scrutiny that goes with celebrity status. But then again that's just my sweet opinion.

@BonIverSUCKS Soo, you listen to metal? Shredding takes no musical talent, learn a scale and how to turn the distortion on your amp. But i guess turn on distortion is really hard to do, with all those confusing words on your amp, how do you do it?
