***OOPS*** Before getting on my soapbox, I really should learn how to spell Bonnie "Prince" BillY... My apologies, please don't let my lack of attention to detail defer you from the point in hand. X |

| Bon Iver – Skinny Love Lyrics | 17 years ago |

Hello all, May I first start my expressing my entire love for this song - truly fantastic in everyway.... I'm afraid that I don't have anything to add to the meaning of the song, simply because I believe all points have been covered. One small point that I do have to say is this.... Skinny love has received 45 posts from people obviously passionate about Bon Iver's lyrics. Fair shout, the man is clearly incredible. However, I recently searched Bonnie "Prince" Billie's song, Cursed Sleep, to find a mere 2 posts... Now I'm from England and I find artists like Bon Iver and Bonnie "Prince" Billie to be clear foundations of what America truly has to present to the world, completely contradicting all the small-minded peasants that happily follow an ignorant fraternity of people that find America to be a threatening country and therefore some sort of enemy. Bon Iver has a wonderful story surrounding a truly amazing album... However, Bonnie "Prince" Billie has a wonderful album developing into an amazing story.... So my rather drawn out point is this.... PLEASE listen to Cursed Sleep by Bonnie "Prince" Billie and comment on his song. I'm sure it seems so ridiculous that one man can be so passionate about a seemingly trivial fact, but this man's music has affected me in a big way and I would really like to see the backing from his home country that he truly deserves. Feel free to comment/shoot me down where I stand. D. |
