'Wolves (act I & II)' by Bon Iver (A Take Away Show/La Blogotheque)
But Moon was just like everyone else on that night: he didn’t want to do the filming only. He also wanted to be thrilled, to close his eyes and sway. So he abandoned his camera. It passed from hand to hand before Vincent took it back and moved gently among the people who were sitting while Justin performed "Wolves". The band invited us to sing along with them, as they do in all of their shows... takeawayshows.com blogotheque.net/spip.php?article4267
'For Emma, For Ever Ago' by Bon Iver (A Take Away Show/La Blogotheque)
Bon Iver first tried working with voices only, after Sean had talked about Grizzly Bear’s Take Away Show, about their a cappella performance of "Knife" in the streets. Justin asked his two pals to try the same thing on "For Emma". A ritornello on two octaves for Sean and Mike, accompanied by snapping for the rhythm: that would be just enough... takeawayshows.com blogotheque.net/Bon-Iver,4255
'These Days (Nico Cover)' by The Tallest Man On Earth (La Blogotheque)
(...) One catch: after soundcheck the day before, Tallest Man’s guitars were locked inside the NYC music venue, Town Hall, where he’d be playing later that night with Bon Iver. Solution: we’d have to shoot somewhere with a decent supply of guitars that he might borrow. A fan of music of all kinds, Jeff, the awesome, museum-quality proprietor of the legendary Music Inn on West 4th Street in Greenwich Village was happy to oblige. (...) Here is a cover version of 'These Days', originally sung by Nico. blogotheque.net/The-Tallest-Man-on-Earth,4817
'Man Under The Sea' and 'Gnossienne Number1' by Patrick Watson (on La Blogotheque)
Ils n’avaient, c’est peu de le dire, rien compris de ce qu’on attendait d’eux. Mais ils ont eu la délicatesse de nous faire comprendre qu’ils étaient prêts à tout. Watson, sa gueule d’ange grimaçante et ses trois grandioses musiciens, nous ont donné de la musique pendant une journée, puis une soirée entière. (blogotheque.net/Patrick-Watson,4821) In short, they didn’t exactly understand what we expected of them, but they let us know that they were ready for anything. Watson, his grimacing angel-face and his three grandiose musicians, gave us music throughout an entire day, then an entire night.

'Við spilum endalaust' by Sigur Ros (la blogotheque)
A trip across Paris in a van. Lost drumsticks. A cafe you'd never expect to visit before the age of 60. An hour of waiting, and then, voilà--a few notes on the harmonium, a grand piano, a heavenly voice. Sigur Ros on a Take Away Show. Une traversée de Paris en van. Des baguettes oubliées. Un café qu'on n'imaginait pas visiter avant nos soixante ans. Une heure d'attente, puis voilà, quelques notes d'harmonium, un grand piano, une voix céleste.
