A Little Bit Out There...

This music video is called "Skinny Love" by Birdy, who made the cover of this song, by Bon Iver on January 14th, 2011. It actually reached the top twenty of charts in a couple of European countries. Though her real name is Jasmine Van Den Bogaerde, she goes by her stage name, Birdy, which comes from the nickname her parents gave her as a baby. Her win against more than 10, 000 competitors at a music competition, called Open Mic UK, started her fame. Now, her musical talents include singing and playing piano (which has been featured in other music videos). At the moment, she has one album, Birdy, which contains covers of songs including one original. You may have heard of her if you've seen The Hunger Games as she sings 'Just A Game'.
