I’ve been a huge fan of Alec for years now!!! He’s so talented man!
Same
Same
me too! im so happy he's getting recognized
I've known his music for a long time but I didnt know him. Just last year I found out and I was so mad at myself for not learning about the artist of my favorite song
WhyNotProductions I’ve been here since the original wolf and the sheep and paper crown and the water fountain and ahh I’m a proud motherr
When he pulled chocolates out from under his shirt I literally said awwwww 😄
Wait it was in his shirt! I thought he was sitting on them!😂
@@glitchowo4780 omg lol
I wish he'd pull me out from under his shirt. I mean that in the most uncreepy way ever
@@izzy_bell9207 I don't think there is a not creepy way to mean that, but its totally fine
Alec is such a cinnamon roll that must be protected
graci_the_cinnamon_roll YeS fAnS pRoTeCt

But that was cute though 😍😍😍

"I dont drink, I dont smoke im just sometimes spacey." finally someone understands.

Alec is so precious.😭
I know😭😭😭😭
My precious
Not only is Alec incredibly talented but he is also the cutest human I have seen!
I didn't think that I could love him anymore than I already did.
This interview proved me so wrong
Same here.I get so excited each time I see him now.
Might seem weird now
Alec is too warm hearted I wish I was his friend he inspired me to reach my goals
The first 1 minute and 37 seconds are so wholesome.
I heard his song Boy in the Bubble. I thought it was amazing. I started hearing a lot of his songs and now I love all of them. I feel like he should be more famous than what he is.
.
That was my first song that I listened too
Same
A year later and he’s massive lol

Zach: "you got to do your homework"
Me: but he also did Annabelle's homework

40:49 IS THE CUTEST MOMENT I'M CRYING????
Didn't knew him before but wow he's very charismatic
Likeable, not really charismatic
my boy Alec is really rising up, his music is so powerful. always enjoy your interviews Zach, you never disappoint. can’t wait to see how much more Alec progresses in his career
(edit) just have to comment on how precious alec is
Yoooo!!! My anitials are H C as well!!!!
23:47
“I’m so good at walking, like you should see me and my homies walk it’s lit”
😂😂
Alec is my favourite singer now and will always be ✨. The reasons are
1)He is a humble and a hard working person.
2)His voice is innocent.
3)His music is great, pleasant to hear and always with different good messages for the audience around the world.
4) Unlike other singers he doesn't chase for fame and money.
5) He's clean with no piercing and tattoos.
6)He is underated, he deserves more love and support.
true
What’s wrong with tattoos 😭
@@memethingz6004 Nothing, it's just about some mainstream artists with those specific characteristics that have been causing controversy and drama.
Nothing wrong with piercings and tattoos, and nothing wrong with chasing fame and money
I love Alec so much. I'm glad people are starting to notice how great his music truly is.
Averdian Yes! He deserves it.
I just wanted to meet him
Alec’s personality is just so perfect! And his eyes.. beautiful💛
Damn am i the only one who finds him cute?
NOPE not at all
u are not alone
You are Not the only one
GABRIELLE GARCIA totally agree
no
Nope 😍
The cutest human being I've ever seen. I like how he puts his emotions into words. You can tell he's a storyteller.
That's why his songs are so honest, pure and touching and just PERFECT!
Love this man. ❤
And he evated the question so smooothlyy😂
*man i just said my homies*
Literally when I read "my homies" he said "my homies"
his nose is so perfect wtf
Lol..
he probably doesn't like his nose but it's interesting to hear that you find it perfect
His everything is perfect
My eyes stucked upon his nose and I couldn't even saw his whole face, he is cute 🐒😂😂
What about the rest of him
What did we do to deserve this man
We dont deserve him...😭❤
I have no idea honestly
@@emo_weeb_stanie1019 I like u pic gdhdhjejsjsjd
Um because we are breathing the same air of this beautiful king?
@@melveerainbow4657 Oh that isn't good
Dude has straight empathy. He has great work for this planet.
Alec Benjamin as one of the highly gifted youngsters in this show. His speed of thoughts and easiness to express himself are rather unique. This invitation and his given presentation may easily result in more time-consuming occupations.
fredo gerald
All I gotta say is...
Woah •_•
@fredo gerald you put my thoughts into words
I think you’ve hit the nail on the head. Nevertheless, maybe he’s better off as he is right now. The music industry has a notorious reputation for ruining talented individuals- And with the catalytic uproar of fame and the ever-growing internet, I hope the same fate doesn’t meet with him.
I love all his songs and he's so sweet,I comment on so many of his songs as soon as he releases songs/demos
He's such a smol bean, it's adorable. He really brought chocolates to say thank you and I just can't 😭❤😄
hey's beyOND humble and adorable, i fkn cannot i didnt think id be attracted to a softboy again
@@AmetafJohora lol Same but, again? 😂
OH MY-
I JUST FELL IN LOVE WITH ALEC BENJAMIN!
He is so down to earth and he seems so true to himself AND I AM LOVING IT. I’ve been a fan of his music but I didn’t know who he was until today ;)
Casie-ann Dake i already did a few weeks ago😍
Casie-ann Dake SAME
A FEW *WEEKS* AGO?
I don't even know the dude and I couldnt not finish the interview HES SO CUTE
Sweet Creature
I KNOW RIGHT!!! He is so ADORABLE!!
Ikr😍😍
I knew I could hear Alec's songs all day, but I just discoverd that I'd listen to what he has to say non-stop as well. Enjoyed this interview till the last second.
1:55 "that's alec's stick of salami" MY MIND OH NO-
well, we've really done something haven't we
*ch o k e s*
He is too kind for this world. Not everybody is such a cute and kind person.
I LAUGHED SO MUCH! omg he's the sweetest boy ever! Thanks for showing me this guy
He’s an incredible story teller! Love his music
Omg can his laugh get any more cute ?!?!!!😭💓🥰😍he is such a soft bean ,protect him at all times
Alec,Shawn and Ed should all write a song together
JESUS YES
Katherine Mcmurry I-
YES EVERYBODY GO TO THERE CHANNELS AND TELL THEM!
@Katherine Mcmurry i would die so many times to hear that!
@Katherine Mcmurry FR
Every song I've heard by Alec (Paper Crown, I Built A Friend, Let Me Down Slowly, If We Have Each Other, The Boy In The Bubble, and Water Fountain) have all made me cry. I love his work.
The first one I ever heard was Together We'll Fall.
Another one is "death of a hero"
Must have been the wind is best
Alec and Shawn are (with Ed) my favorite singers, I couldn't be happier
Snitch Phead you look happier, you do
Ok, I could listen to Alec’s music for hours a day. My friends laugh at me but I hum or whisper his songs while I’m walking through the hallways. I’m the worst singer ever but I love his songs so much I accidentally sing along. Keep singing!!
Same
Kay Sprite I posted this comment a year ago and I completely forgot that it existed . Now I feel really dumb looking back at the way I said it 😂
@@nobodyspecial1942 Well, I'm reading your comment 3 years late but I just wanted to say you said it in a cool way, just as cool as Alec lolll do you still listen to his songs?
the perfect guy doesn’t exist
*oh wait*
*but he does*
It makes me so happy to see alec getting recognised for his amazing music. And he is just soo sweet and we should all admit that he is a cinnamon bun😍😍😁
He can't be a cinnamon bun to meee. I'm allergic to cinnamon.... I don't think I'm allergic to Alec.
A cinnamon bun? Wth lmao
Hanna hahha it’s a tumblr meme. From and Onion article saying, “Beautiful cinnamon roll, too good for this world too pure”
He looks innocent but adorable! 🙊 Love his eyes
"one of the poems was like, "death of a something," and I was like, "that's cool... Wh-what do I know that died?" 😂
That part was hilarious lmao 😂
i don't know if alecs' fansbase has already a name but can we name us his Homies please?
Yeah lets do this lena
Lena I’m good with that
i want to be alec’s homie
I think it's narratees
yess lets do it
he's so sweet, loved it when he gave that chocolate hahah
i can't say this enough HE WILL BLOW UP, HE WILL BECOME THE HERO OF SO MANY PEOPLE AND HE WILL FINALLY GET THE RECOGNITION HE DESERVES
I think that to he will definently
he’s actually a real life angel 🥺👼🏼
Chocolate: **exists**
Mysterious hand: "good day sir"
I'm so happy to see this interview. Alec is such an amazing and underrated artist. I've been listening to him for about 2 years now. He is a lyrical genius and you can feel how genuine his music is. I wanted to go to his concert, but sadly its sold out lol.
The way he specks is so relatable 😂😂😭❤
Alec Benjamin, "I am trying to grow up" can be a song. You said it in this interview.
Ok wow.... i'm 16 minutes into this and I'm just so in awe by how honest and straightforward but incredibly humble he is.
He's so true to himself, and a part of him doesn't even seem to realize how amazing he is.
OMG I'VE KNOWM HIM FOR A YEAR OR SO THIS IS GREAT THAT HE IS ON HERE
Alina You know who else is great?????
Ashton Irwin
2:26 “This dude is like probably in one of my top 5”
Me: He’s in my top 1 😏😏
32:24 "ok" aww hahahahaha he's so cute
you can tell he has so many thoughts and feelings in his head and he's just trying to put it into words 🥺
Omg his voice is adorable. I love his songs since like day one 😂❤️❤️
11:42-11:47 That eye smile though. 💜
He's just so humble, sweet and nice guy, I wish him all the best because his music is like touched by angels. I can't wait to see him live.
This show does "real interview". Thank u. Because I think people came to know about so many interesting artists and their wide real thoughts. U just don't ask questions but u make the interviewee open up.
P.S I love alec benjamin's music
Awe he’s so sweet and adorable.
I appreciate how sweet and humble Alec is. Great guest and great interview as always, Zach.
He's so nice and adorable and oh my god like where did he come from? You never find anyone like that nowadays let alone a guy. I've been listening to his music for a long time but this is the first time I see him in an interview and just... Wow
Urgh man he’s so kind hearted and so sweet that it hurts😍😩❤️😭
When Alec smiles it looks like an akita dog smiling, I'm in love
Alecc reminds me of a sweet awkward teenager.
He’s adorable
i- he’s not a teenager. but he do be looking like one
haiggi she never said that he was a teenager she said he reminds her of one lol 🤣
Zach: he is a storyteller.
Me: thinks of If I Killed Someone for You.
Me: *he killed someone?*
listen to the song cause he didn’t kill someone it’s a metaphor for him changeing and ‘killing’ himself for the girl
he’s saying that he “killed himself” for girl. like he completely changed himself so she would like him. idk how to explain it. :))
He killed himself. His old version. He changed himself into something new for a girl he liked so that she could love him back.
nah, just himself
It Literaly says "you have to understand, that the one I killed is me. Changing what I am for what you wanted me to be"
I discovered him a month ago, an i fell in love with him instantly😍
Look at this amazing genuine song writing bean
He's such a dork omlll he's so adorable!
Alec and Jon need to do a collab or something I'm obsessed with both of them
Crysta Styron they did, New York Soul pt.II
Watching this has just made me love him so much more I love how cute and awkward this is makes it seem so much less rehearsed and we really get a picture of the boy behind such amazing music
Becky Thornton your profile picture is really pretty
Also same
42:45 his laugh was so CUTE 😍
his song paper crown is sooo sad and special
31:26 "Damn" - OMFG, you and Lauv need to collab.
Keep being you Alec, you're the absolute definition of what a human should be, honest, genuine, humble, kind, "lit" and caring.
Onwards and upwards mate!
"I am very rarely moved to tears when I listen to music, but Alec has done it to me a couple times" bro that is literally ME I cry whenever I listen to his emotional songs (there are too many to count), and lot's of people don't believe that because I am not usually outwardly sentimental. I used to feel like nobody understood me, but I found Alec's music and I felt like he knew and understood exactly what I was thinking and feeling. Truly an amazing person. ❤
This makes me so happy that a bigger interviewing platform is recognizing Alec. His music is so unbelievably amazing and I can’t wait for him to blow up !
right?!
HE'S SO PURE
He’s so honest it’s really weird. Most celebrities will dodge questions left and right but he’s just like “yeah this is what the songs about” and will actually tell you. Or he’ll just straight up say “i feel isolated a lot and I think I do it to myself” (not exactly what he said but whatever) It’s so refreshing to see someone so real, authentic, and just plain honest.
**sees alec’s name**
fastest i’ve ever clicked
(apart from when alec uploads)
He’s so precious!!!! Hope he gets the recognition he deserves, his voice n songs are amazing
I remember when I first heard Alec a few years back and he was amazing back then. Only getting better!!! Can't wait to see what more he does.
He's the first artist whose songs I have binged in 2 days. His songwriting skills are insane
I never cried while listening to music until I started listening to Alec’s music and only his music, he is amazing.
