Alot of "Bon Iver" fans claim to hate this song because they think Justin is straying from what made him who he is today. I think that is complete garbage. This song only proves that Bon Iver can do no wrong. Justin takes musical elements from the past two decades, layers them all together, and makes a beautiful song. Critics can compare this to Phil Collins, Bruce Hornsby, or whoever. Bon Iver's lyrics have always been complex but these are beyond understanding. It's funny how someone can dumb down music but still make it something that you will never understand, all within 5:17.
