Video: Bonnie 'Prince' Billy- I Gave You



Technically this is a song from the album Bonnie 'Prince' Billy did with Matt Sweeney. Anyway, this is a very affecting video assuming you pay attention to the lyrics. They go perfectly with the vibe of the video, as you can imagine someone in this situation after being rejected. The reveal at the end is a nice twist that gives the whole thing a darker tone, too.

If you're a fan of facial hair and/or blusey/folky/country-y indie rock, then Will Oldham (aka Bonnie 'Prince' Billy) is your man and this is your video.
