Anyone else heard this beautiful cover of Bon Iver's song that's floating around the charts atm?

Only just found out Birdy aka Jasmine Van den Bogaerde is actually 14!

Nice voice but she'd impress me a lot more if she did soemthing original

And Bon Iver's is still superior.

Yep, love this song - love both versions, but prefer Bon Iver's.
Nice to see Britain's teenage talent is better than that from across the pond... *cough* Rebecca Black

She has a good voice, but I prefer Bon Iver's version.

Speaking of Bon Iver, anyone heard the Woods sample used in Kayne West's Lost In The World?...I think Woods is such a mesmerising song, but I don't like the way it's been used.

Yeah Woods is too beautiful to be distorted.

Never liked Bon Ivor's album. Somehow she manages to make something of this song though, making the music and the melody far clearer and less dependant on atmosphere. Hopefully Bon Ivor takes note.
