When people say Alec still deserves to be more well-known, they're mostly talking about how he has to live in the shadow of Let Me Down Slowly. A bunch of people know him specifically for that, and not for his stuff as a whole.
YOU ARE SO RIGHT!
I ask my friends to listen to his music, they're like 'Oh, the LMDS guy? Nah, idrk, it's not it.' I feel bad for the poor guy. And everyone sees him as this sad singer, who just isn't loved as much as Taylor Swift etc., but he has such beautiful songs that really resonate with everyone.
@@marry_me_akaza I agree. I think he's better than Taylor Swift.
@@AnishP-100 100%. He's amazing. And I have to fight off so many Swifties because I have an opinion??
@@marry_me_akaza Exactly. Random fact- I just realised that there are more Swifties than Jews on Earth...
I know him from the boy in the bubble but I love all his music and jsut listen to him in general now
Alec's new album "12 Notes" is his BEST ONE! He deserves so much more appreciation 🤩
Lead me to water is one of my favorites on this album and I hope he performs it live
He will since it’s on the album
I love how humble Alec is
He is one of my favourite singers! He literally tells stories through his music.
zach praising alec is so heartwarming
I love how comfortable Alec is with you guys on the Zach Sang Show. He just seems like he’s able to be himself and not worry about being on the late night shows or daytime talk shows. Zach, you seem to really like Alec and he knows that, so he is able to ramble (which is so Alec) and that allows him to say stuff he might not say elsewhere.
Alec just deserves to have that 2nd breakout hit because his lyrics are so real and his voice is so recognizable. His songs are so much better that the majority of songs that get a lot of airplay. ❤😍
Love how honest and down to earth Alec is. His music is amazing ❤
He's so down to earth and just so normal, I love it ❤❤
It's always so fun when Alec is on !
I've been waiting for this interview since Alec announced his new album!!!
i was waiting for this, your new album is already a hit, and I don’t think your music sounds the same, every song is unique in a way I can’t describe, it’s very calming and deep and it comforts me, I love you Alec ❤❤
If you see this alec just know that as a fan I don't think all your songs sound the same ❤❤
Been watching Zach's interviews with Alec for years now and so happy to see him doing well!
I don't think his music all sounds the same, but I'm all about artists trying new things and staying excited about what they are doing.
I don't understand what this means?- it sounds the same because he sings it? Are you expecting a male voice then next song a whole choir? 😭 It's not like the message behind each one is the same either you cannot say lock me up for life has the same message as pick me? You just can't... So what does that mean?
@@FunnyPitbull-ks9su In the interview he sometimes worries all his music sounds the same so he was intentionally trying some new things on this album. I was saying I don't think all his previous songs sound the same and I support artists trying new things. Sometimes artists stick to the same sound every song because they are afraid their fans only want more of the same.
I do think it's funny, because the songs mentioned in that part of the episode don't sound particularly different to me. On a technical level they are different, but for me they still sound like Alec Benjamin songs. Fun to hear him geek out about what he was trying in the songs though!
@@FunnyPitbull-ks9su The comment's point just went over your head, didn't it?
@@Lvtifv they really didn't have a point though. they said the music sounds like Alec Benjamin songs, and hey correct me if I'm wrong, but that might be because they're alec Benjamin songs? Like I still don't understand how they mean that, all his music sounds the same? Well not really no. They have the same singing voice obviously but here's also a way different vibe to each one and I simply don't agree that they're all the same. Again there's absolutely no comparison to songs like mother's eyes to ones like king sized bed. You can't compare the two.. the voices yes sure, probably because it's the same fking dude singing but the vibes are much different. This also may be because I have autism and I prefer things organised and similar which is why Alec Benjamin music is really all I listen to... Which even then isn't missing the points a lot of the time like.... An autism trait so really you have no point here either way.
@FunnyPitbull-ks9su Reading the comment, I don't see them saying his music sounds the same. They clearly said "I don't think his music all sounds the same."
Alec if you ever see this, I am always blown away by your songwriting! You are so unique in that sense✨
It is the first time I’m watching Alec in an interview even though I loved this music for so long. He has such an interesting personality! He is funny as well! I LOVE Zach’s interviews💗
I love his musicccc, his new album is suchhh a good one definitely deserves more appreciation!!!🩷🩷
He doesn't need to change his music his music is already perfect ❤❤❤
I’m obsessed with his new album!! Some of my favourite work from him yet
Alec is so himself this interview! Great work team making him feel comfortable.
I love him for his simplicity and humbleness and smartness
"By Now" sounds like it should be in one of the Kingdom Hearts or Final Fantasy games. It's one of my favorites on the album! I can't wait to see him on tour! ❤️
noooo he didn't pick the wrong singles!! those are my faves of the album for sure, on repeat
No fr, I agree !!!
This talk was so fun to watch 😭 As a fan of 4 years, Alec your music definitely does not sound all the same. Their all clever and tell their own story. I'm happy you're feeling healthier mentally and physically, much love ❤
This is his best album, all the songs are so good
51:40 this part is so funny 😂
Let’s go! i’ve been waiting for this
I was waiting for this interview 😏
Respect for Dan's opinion on King Size Bed and The Arsonist, those are my favorites too!
Edit: And Pick Me!? My third favorite
I sent my therapist to therapy is also good.
In a little is my favorite 💗
Was hoping for this interview since the album released! Love you boys!
this guy is too funnyyyy
I like the whole album, but Sacrifice Tomorrow is my favorite. I spent 4 years in a long distance relationship, so when we were together it was exactly that feeling of 'who cares how awful we feel tomorrow, let's grab all the time we can together right now.' Married 20 years this summer!
You changed a lot and that means that you're much more healthier than before and that means the world to me ❤
This are always my favourite interviews of Alec. He has so many amazing songs that need to be realised. There’s been so many snippets over the years and we need to know how the songs ended up.
Still I’m waiting on Make me cry, Apsley Grove, I can’t tell when we kissed, President, Wrong thing, plan didn’t work
Alec’s so right, By Now is amazing
Alec is simply the best and he is amazing and humble ❤❤❤❤❤
I absolutely LOVE 12 notes album. Lead me to water and love the ones who leave are just so cool
Nuclear Winter has been mentioned twice now, on different podcasts! I want to hear it!
same!
Literally NO ONE is gonna get this, but let's reconnect him and @ReactsByAsh... iykyk
Omg I love Ashley so much girly fell in love wi him
omg i remember that…i can't believe they almost kinda dated😭
wait what?? i had no idea miss ashley ippolito almost dated mr. let me down slowly- lemme know??
@@aylin2341 yeah a few years ago ashley reacted to one of his albums and alec saw it and apparently tried to slide into her dms but ashley never checks her dms so she didn't see the message until months later. she responded apologizing for the late response and i guess he never answered but she said she felt bad and would've reciprocated had she seen the message in time.
@@aylin2341 nah they never dated but she reacted to his album narrated for you and girly fell in a trans
We're happy if you're happy :)
I'm always pleasantly surprised at how often I can relate to your music!
And in my opinion, I don't think your music sounds the same
Been a fan of Alec's since Let Me Down Slowly. Wish I would've found him even earlier so I could've been enjoying his music even longer. I have matching Change My Clothes tattoos with one of my best friends. We went to see Alec in Helsinki in 2022 and got to very briefly meet him after the concert and he took a photo with us. Super nice and humble guy. Absolutely love his music. Hoping he'll come to Finland again for this tour. Me and my friend will definitely be there again.
You picked the right singles ❤❤
I just love him
斑鳩實在太可愛了
I'm going to an Alec Benjamin concert soon, and I can't wait. Alec is my favorite singer because he's so down to earth and true to himself. Love you Alec ❤ ps. king sized bed and lead me to water are my favorites from the new album lol
Bro i NEED an Alec x some DJ song. Like i think Alec on an EDM song could be sick.
love love love his new album, got it on repeat❤️❤️
Tempted to write the word conflagration in a song after hearing this, thank you, love you all great show, Alec rocks, this is awesome
the arsonist is my favorite song
MY LOVE 🥺🌹
22:58 "nuclear winter, release it. don't be a little b*tch, release it" :b (probably my favorite part). he really does though (have it/has the songs).
LOVE YOUR ALBUM! IVE BEEN LISTENING TO IT ON REPEAT!
My goat 💗💗
#LOVEFORALEC ❤ I love him so much
I love you alec
6:12 That is actually so sad. Cause in my opinion some of his best songs are completely different from Let Me Down Slowly. Hell, one of my favorites from his mixtape is Steve.
10:04 YES KING SIZED BED IS SO UNDERRATED
I love him a lot
love this interview!
It's just soo much noise tbh... I randomly saw one of Alec's "Can I sing for you: videos fews years back, and then got hooked... Have been a die-hard fan ever since... I only later got to know it was him who sang LMDS... Whenever I let a friend of mine listen to his music, they get hooked too... And now we all are counting fingers until he release new music... He must have so many fans around the world, because I myself am from Sri Lanka... I really wished I could be there at on of his concerts... Nevertheless, this kid needs visibility, because he is damn good song writer... I might say the best in IMO...
51:55 😂😂😂😂😂😂
13:50.... lmaoooo
ALEC YAYAYAYAY
I love him haha
ALEEEEC
Im so glad he didnt cut the arsonist its so good
Alec is in PARIS?!❤
He’s coming to Europe in a couple of weeks to tour?!
is that why paper crown got taken down and he had to re record them
Dear Alec, I always listen to you with so much pleasure! Your laugh, your good humour... Go on being you ❤️🔥

Why is it that most of his subscribers are either girls or singles. But I do know some boys that listen to his music but that’s the majority of his listeners.
Including me
lol same, typical teenage girl music i suppose but its nof really like that
🤍
King Sized Bed is a great song with a cool story. I don't like the bridge, though. It feels too repetitive. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
Wait... Alec is 30, successful and lives with his parents???
he’ll be 30 on May 28th I’M COUNTING DOWN!!!! ❤
did he just swear???
"I've always had amazing experiences in france" the way i got on a plane to be at his first show in paris 🥲
