**** I really just did not like this when I heard it and thought it sounded like all their other songs. Despite this I was still completely rooting for it to win a Grammy because Arcade Fire had proven the year prior that much hilarity can surface from it. This particular song didn't win but Bon Iver still won another Grammy and fun was had. But I really think that it's a shame that this didn't win a Grammy because it really is a beautiful song, with plenty of phrases that get stuck in my head. I could hear The National performing this song (with more drumming of course!). By some strange twist of fate, this 5 and a half minute long song with the same riff repeated from start to finish happens to be the only Bon Iver song I would go so far as to say I like, magic stuff!
