I love this song from Bon Iver, the boys of Wisconsin's Northwoods. Their debut album, For Emma, Forever Ago, released in February 2008 gained the band some serious indie cred.
This song, reminiscent of winter, begins with a lilting, bluesy guitar, and builds to Justin Vernon crooning about the animal fears of humanity. It is a mid-winter, Sunday-morning love song, and as the days have gotten grayer, it's melancholy languor is just what the doctor ordered.
My favorite version is the one from the July 2008 Daytrotter Session, check it out here.
