“The thing I find incredible about Bon Iver is that I often don’t know what the lyrics are, and I feel like I’ve been a really lyric-interested listener all my life. When I heard him perform and when I listened to the record, I often didn’t understand what he was saying. But it didn’t matter. It was the feeling of the music, the way that he was expressing himself, it got under my skin and brought me to a place of extreme catharsis. It’s not easy for me to really cry. If I need to cry, I’ll go for a drive and I put on ‘Re: Stacks’. I also chose for my daughter to be born to that song, so it’s now got this added weight of the beauty and intensity of life.
