About this song: Skinny Love

Skinny Love gain great public awareness in Belgium and the Netherlands, when the song appeared in the fouth season of the tv-series So You Think You Can Dance. The song became increasingly popular and in the final of that show, Birdy herself played the song while the 14 finalists danced to it. This version is a cover of Bon Iver's Skinny Love: http://www.last.fm/music/Bon+Iver/_/Skinny+Love The daughter of a concert pianist, fifteen year old Jasmine Van Den Bogaerde, A.K.A. Birdy, has been playing the piano since the age of five.
