Bon Iver's mightily anticipated album is out in just a little over a month.
And so as all musicians must, he has made his appearances.
But, rather than the more expected offering of his advance single Calgary for his appearance on Fallon, we got a taste of Bon Iver’s love of covers, with a medley of Leon Russell’s “A Song For You” and two Bonnie Raitt tunes, “I Can’t Make You Love Me” and “Nick of Time.”
Listening to these, i felt the sheer power of his capacity to bring people to an overwhelming sense of joy and clarity, that comes effortlessly with his voice.
Enjoy

Malnutritioned Affection.
Bon Iver - Painful emotion mixed with raw passionate music.
Justin Vernon has been the light in the darkness, when light itself was only a concept i used to understand.
His music represents more than just beautiful sound, but real, truly fierce emotion that defines him and all those who are lucky enough to stumble upon him.
If i could name one, once in a life time experience, it would be to see this phenomenon live. I have been blessed with this.
23rd October 2011.
I leave you with the beautiful and humbling sound of malnutritioned affection that is;
Skinny Love by Bon Iver.
