I remember when this song first came out and I became obsessed as soon as I heard the riff. Months and months on, and this song still destroys me every single time. In the best way possible. It's as if it makes me understand and come to terms with every emotion I have ever felt at any point in my life. The man is phenomenal. In my opinion, he's the best artist of this generation. His musical ability astounds me every single time but the emotion absolutely thrown into every single one of his shows is what makes him so incredible. I cannot wait to see him live again - I hope we don't have to wait too long. Thank-you, Ben.
Intensely soulful. How this man manages to make such an unearthly chill crawl up your spine is beyond me. He is sublime. On top of that, he puts a part of himself into every song, making it incredibly personal. He has been given an extraordinary gift which I think we are all grateful for.
Some of life's deepest truths can only be conveyed via poetry, song, or other art. This song contains core knowledge that we all have and will eventually rediscover through experience. Ben Howard truly understands our reality as human beings experience it, and I for one am a huge fan. Fantastic job my friend.
This slower version is even more dense and deeper than the original. Very good adaption of the new drummer into the style, his intensity is going to open new things for the band. Can´t wait to listen new stuff with this new formation
Hope this message finds you...Wishing you peace, happiness, friendship, love, acceptance, satisfaction and all your hopes, dreams and desires. You changed my life,
I simply adore the fact, that he is always smiling so ironically whilst singing the "we'll just wait and see" part. I noticed it depends on the concert, though.
just hearing this live makes my heart pump so bloody fast. So much talent and beauty i honestly cannot put into words how much i love Ben Howards music. Blessed to be hearing this as well as everything else Ben Howard has done.
Ben I love you so much,I remembered when I first started listening to you 6 years ago when These waters came out a year before. You've always been the one that's made be at peace and serenity when I'm in bad parts of my life. You make me fall in love with the world and just take me to another world when I close my eyes. Thank you Ben. You mean everything to me
Well i learned this song, thing is, he's not playing upside down, he's playing a right handed guitar when he usually plays left handed ones, so he just reversed the strings so it would still be the same as the regular one. For his playing pattern, he really is only fretting his chords from the top because it is more practical, though not conventional. This song is truly amazing! AND YES HE IS WILD! Even if what he's doing isn't as wild as it seems!
Yeah, I found out it interesting because I'm left hand as well. Maybe "Karim Nasr" is right, and and the guitar he is playing is for right hand people so there's a piece of the song he needed to play it in that way.
I heard him live the same year in Austin, TX. I had bought the tickets with a girlfriend. we broke up before the festival. We still went together, and it was awkward. Being front row for him made it all worth it. It made all the confusion of my life make sense for 45mins.
I was listening to this song on my phone and browsing here then saw the notification haha. Listen to Ben AM-PM, no shame :p This version sounds slowed down, but great performance.. wish he'd come back to Australia soon.
Such a talent! He has inspired and helped me a lot with his music! This guy is a phenomenal, he can write, he can sing and he can play.. What more to ask for? :) I listen to him every single day, and it never gets boring, because his songs can be played no matter what mood you are in!
Bu adamda farklı bir şey var. İnsanın anlatamadığı, ne dese yeterli olmadığı tarzda bir farklılık. Dilim tutuluyor, sadece hissediyorum. Thank you Ben Howard!
Oh hey, I wasn't listening I was watching Syria Blinded by the sunshine strip You, you were in the kitchen Oh, your mariner's mouth The wounded with the wounder's whip And that's how summer passed away The great dividing range, the green, green grass And oh, maybe it was peace at last Who knew? Hello love, my invincible friend Oh, hello love, the thistle and the burr Oh, hello love, for you I have so many words But I, I forget where we were, no Oh hey, I wasn't listening I was stung by all of us The blind leading out the bored And as per usual You were skipping and laughing Eyes at the bedroom door "Don't take it so seriously, no Only time is ours, the rest we'll just wait and see!" Maybe you're right, babe Maybe Oh, Lord And that's how summer passed Oh, the great dividing range, the green, green grass And oh, maybe I'll hold on fast To you Then hello love, my invincible friend Oh, hello love, the thistle and the burr Oh, hello love, for you I have so many words But I, I forget where we were, no I forget where we were, no I forget where we were, no I forget where we were Oh, Lord And that's how summer passed Oh, the great dividing range, the green, green grass And oh, maybe it was peace at last Who knew?
I'm sorry. This was a little painful to watch, and I'm not sure it was the good painful. There's the melancholy I enjoy, especially in To Be Alone and White Lights; but this wasn't the good melancholy which says "Here are my problems and I'm dealing with them". It felt more like fresh wounds, deep ones. I don't know if this dark turn is for me, but I'll stick with Ben because I trust and admire his artistic ability. Just some thoughts
+Max “phonyk” Davis I agree, I saw him in NY and had this same exact impression, even the part about sticking with him because his music is amazing. I just didn't know how I felt about the performance part, I could barely see the band it was so dark.
We discovered you in the "Austin to Boston" documentary, and couldn't wait to check out more of your music, Ben. Beautiful! We're featuring you on our Facebook Page today, and adding this video to our TH-cam playlist "Songs in Alternate Tunings." Is this tuning DACGGC?

Perfectly summarised
Perfection indeed

100% agree. It sounds even better with this tempo.
The drumming is what makes this, he's perfect on this track.
Hope this message finds you...Wishing you peace, happiness, friendship, love, acceptance, satisfaction and all your hopes, dreams and desires. You changed my life,
9 years later that sundown and the riff starting still gives me goosebumps....
Hauntingly beautiful and heart-wrenching.. ♡
when he says "maybe it was peace at last" 💯💯
Ur like 0.0
Don't knooe
the intensity and realness in his eyes and voice are unreal
this song makes me cry because it just means so much.
Goosebumps even after 1000 repeats
Such a piece of art, everything about it pretty much even the way its played
I simply adore the fact, that he is always smiling so ironically whilst singing the "we'll just wait and see" part. I noticed it depends on the concert, though.
2021 still a absolute banger in my opinion. Where are you Ben howard we need more music like this back in all of are lives. Much love brother.
A truly special musician. We are all so lucky to live in the time of Ben Howard.
just hearing this live makes my heart pump so bloody fast. So much talent and beauty i honestly cannot put into words how much i love Ben Howards music. Blessed to be hearing this as well as everything else Ben Howard has done.
one day i will see him perform, can't wait
im so obsessed with this song
I could listen to it all day
He's getting better and better!!!
I feel this song in every part of me, it's the most beautiful thing that I never heard. Thank's you. Really.
Ben I love you so much,I remembered when I first started listening to you 6 years ago when These waters came out a year before. You've always been the one that's made be at peace and serenity when I'm in bad parts of my life. You make me fall in love with the world and just take me to another world when I close my eyes.

Diego Zhou I'm not ben but I think I love you too
Simply amazing.. I can't live without Ben and this song
IKR
I need to poo
Is not one else questioning how he played guitar basically upside down!?!?!?! That's wild!
Well i learned this song, thing is, he's not playing upside down, he's playing a right handed guitar when he usually plays left handed ones, so he just reversed the strings so it would still be the same as the regular one. For his playing pattern, he really is only fretting his chords from the top because it is more practical, though not conventional. This song is truly amazing! AND YES HE IS WILD!

Yeah, I found out it interesting because I'm left hand as well. Maybe "Karim Nasr" is right, and and the guitar he is playing is for right hand people so there's a piece of the song he needed to play it in that way.
I question nothing...I just get engulfed in the music and enjoy!
It’s pretty easy if you have strong fingers. But to get strong fingers that requires years of practice!
Better than the actual recording
yeah!
He gets my soul all riled up and my eyes well up with tears every time I hear his music
only time is ours
Ben Howard and James Bay. LIFE.
James bay doesn't even barely reach ben Howard's level
Anthemic !!!
Can never over-listen to ANYTHING of Ben's - just heavenly !!! ❤
I heard him live the same year in Austin, TX. I had bought the tickets with a girlfriend. we broke up before the festival. We still went together, and it was awkward. Being front row for him made it all worth it. It made all the confusion of my life make sense for 45mins.
Bn Howard is a big inspiration for me right now. I love his big gloom sound and his vocals are hauntingly great!
4:45 holy shit ben tear my heart out
Бэн - эталон .Лучший исполнитель десятилетия.А может и не только...
Согласен с вами, это необыкновенно цепляюще
I come to expect this from Ben Howard and the band.. Amazing beautiful music! ... Quickly becoming a great.
This is breathtaking.
I was listening to this song on my phone and browsing here then saw the notification haha. Listen to Ben AM-PM, no shame :p
This version sounds slowed down, but great performance.. wish he'd come back to Australia soon.
So many flashbacks to last year. Amazing work!
It’s really unbelievable great performance deeply touching inside. Thank you Ben
Such a talent! He has inspired and helped me a lot with his music! This guy is a phenomenal, he can write, he can sing and he can play.. What more to ask for? :)
I listen to him every single day, and it never gets boring, because his songs can be played no matter what mood you are in!
Missed a chance to see them a couple of years ago.... been kicking myself in the ass ever since.
He’s performing now. Don't miss it, friend
@Sbn888aia 😊 I was fortunate to see them at Red Rocks, 2018!
Where the hell are you Ben ... waiting for you to come back with news songs as good as all the other ones ;)
New phone who dis

Peace, Love, Unity & Respect! Thank you for the music.

I was so lucky enough to be there for this ❤
So beautiful 🧡 and inspiring.
It legitimately just became real to me that some people hit the dislike button on Ben's songs. How in the world?
Bu adamda farklı bir şey var. İnsanın anlatamadığı, ne dese yeterli olmadığı tarzda bir farklılık. Dilim tutuluyor, sadece hissediyorum. Thank you Ben Howard!
Positively absolutely ORCHESTRAL !!! xxx
genio
I love it. So damn much. Come to Holland pleaaaaaaase.

Seeing Ben drinks more and more and not being able to do anything to comfort his tormented soul truly kills me.

Oh hey, I wasn't listening
I was watching Syria
Blinded by the sunshine strip
You, you were in the kitchen
Oh, your mariner's mouth
The wounded with the wounder's whip
And that's how summer passed away
The great dividing range, the green, green grass
And oh, maybe it was peace at last
Who knew?
Hello love, my invincible friend
Oh, hello love, the thistle and the burr
Oh, hello love, for you I have so many words
But I, I forget where we were, no
Oh hey, I wasn't listening
I was stung by all of us
The blind leading out the bored
And as per usual
You were skipping and laughing
Eyes at the bedroom door
"Don't take it so seriously, no
Only time is ours, the rest we'll just wait and see!"
Maybe you're right, babe
Maybe
Oh, Lord
And that's how summer passed
Oh, the great dividing range, the green, green grass
And oh, maybe I'll hold on fast
To you
Then hello love, my invincible friend
Oh, hello love, the thistle and the burr
Oh, hello love, for you I have so many words
But I, I forget where we were, no
I forget where we were, no
I forget where we were, no
I forget where we were
Oh, Lord
And that's how summer passed
Oh, the great dividing range, the green, green grass
And oh, maybe it was peace at last
Who knew?
Amazing!
thank you Ben a true inspiration
classic, masterpiece

amazballs love it geeza !!!!
🐐🐐🐐
I'm sorry. This was a little painful to watch, and I'm not sure it was the good painful. There's the melancholy I enjoy, especially in To Be Alone and White Lights; but this wasn't the good melancholy which says "Here are my problems and I'm dealing with them". It felt more like fresh wounds, deep ones. I don't know if this dark turn is for me, but I'll stick with Ben because I trust and admire his artistic ability. Just some thoughts
+Max “phonyk” Davis I agree, I saw him in NY and had this same exact impression, even the part about sticking with him because his music is amazing. I just didn't know how I felt about the performance part, I could barely see the band it was so dark.
That was Radio City Music hall show ? With Daughter as support ? I was there. It's was dark as fuck :D
Phonyk, thanks for your expression , I feel in the same way. I enjoy that melancholy..
We discovered you in the "Austin to Boston" documentary, and couldn't wait to check out more of your music, Ben. Beautiful! We're featuring you on our Facebook Page today, and adding this video to our TH-cam playlist "Songs in Alternate Tunings."
Is this tuning DACGGC?
