Dear Ben Platt, It's been a month since this song released and it's been less than a day since the whole album was released. Your whole fan base and I can say that we are indescribably proud of you. We are proud to follow you. We are proud to have known and loved you before you majorly blow up and get the recognition you deserve. We are so happy for you and your success. We will follow you through it all. Much love. -Us
Dear Ben Platt, Today is going to be a good day and here's why: BECAUSE I'M LISTENING TO ALL YOUR SONGS AND YOU'RE AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!! Sincerely, me
@Annika Schloesser I think they both do pretty well singing stuff on Broadway (Dear Evan Hansen for Ben and Kinky Boots for Brendon), so maybe they could do a mashup like Ben did with Lin Manuel-Miranda
Lyrics: You always said I'd Come back to you again Cause everybody needs a friend Its true. Someone to quiet The voices in my head Make 'em sing to me instead Its you Hate to say that I love you Hate to say that I need you Hate to say that I want you But I do Bad habit I know But I'm needing you right now Can you help me out Can I lean on you Middle ' one of those days Sun don't wanna come out Can you help me out Can I lean on you You make me feel like I'm Floating off the ground Above this little town You do Look at me smile With tears in my eyes I love the way you lie I do Hate to say that Im lonely Hate to say that I miss you Hate to say that Its dark in here But its true Ohhh Bad habit I know But I'm needing you right now Can you help me out Can I lean on you Middle ' one of those days Sun don't wanna come out Can you help me out Can I lean on you Oooohh Can I lean on you Oooh Can I lean on you Hate to say that Im lonely Hate to say that I miss you Hate to say that Its dark in here But its true Bad habit I know But I'm needing you right now Can you help me out Can i lean on you Can I lean on you Can I lean on you Hate to say that I love you Hate to say that i need you Hate to say that i want you But i do
I saw him back when he was in Book of Mormon on Broadway, and he came to stage door to see us even though it was raining. I'm so proud of where he is now
that was two years ago 😢 i missed that , i get it now, he is, ofcourse, of the, i don’t need to come out generation because i was never in.. good for him... love him 😍
I mean...I feel like he's kinda had a soft coming out, so it's not super surprising. Also the phrase "bad habit" is queer coding so...again, not a surprise.
@@tannersebastian3675 You are aware he talked about his boyfriend before, right? There's video of him doing that. Plus he's a broadway actor, what did you expect?
Leo Torone That’s a bit stereotypical about Broadway Actors. There are many straight actors too. They’re just more assimilated and accepting in the musical theater world.
I've been waiting for you to release an album since Pitch Perfect came out and you just blew me away. This exceeded all my expectations, such a beautiful song! I'm so pumped for the full album!!!
His "bad habit" is a photographer who took pictures of him when they were together. Ben goes to his art show and realizes that the photographer has included his pictures, indicating that the photographer still has feelings for Ben. Hence why the end of the video goes back to the beginning of their relationship. Ben has said this song is a prologue that is written after the break up. the rest of the album is a flashback to the relationship, with "ease my mind" being the beginning of the relationship.
@@carolinecorra What do you mean? I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not. I just used context clues from the lyrics and the video. Ben says "hate to say it's dark in here but it's true" and that's why he often transitions from the real world to a dark room, because he's falling back to his bad habit. Also, the photos he focuses on are of him and of the photographer, so it seems obvious the photographer is his bad habit
@@tep9204 I honestly could not tell you. I didn't have anything at all to do with the video or song or anything. That's on Platt and his creative team to decide if the videos tell an overarching story or if they will be separate entities
He was out to the people he knows but not to the general public, a lot of fans knew because he slipped before, I don't remember where but I knew for sure so probably somewhere at some point. So in a way he was. But it was not intentional, he just felt it wasn't relevant until his album, which is true. It's kind of the same for Brendon Urie, it was like this big thing when most fans already knew for years that he wasn't straight... Of course for their big fans and close friends/family they're not in the closet, but as celebrities they are
@@wavesorlando554 He literally talked about a boyfriend during a video interview you can watch here on TH-cam in 2016. I wouldn't call it slipped, he outright talked about it. Plus he was on Tinder for the longest time. If you live in DC or NYC and are gay, you at some point saw his profile for a match.
Melody Mendez YES OMG i have both songs on my playlist and there’s been plenty of times where i start singing Drops of Jupiter and it ends up being this song
i always used to think this was drops of jupiter and get confused when ben platt started singing but now when i listen to drops of jupiter i think it's going to be bad habit
I LOVE THIS SONG. Have good friend the music does nothing, not happy, not sad, we're in our 60s now and been buddies for 50 yrs. How could I not know that? This brings tears to my eyes. Hair Cut 100's song Favorite Shirt, most people think the song IS BOY MEETS GIRL, that song makes want to speed my off down the road.. I feel music.
Okay, but I've been listening to this on repeat and it's RUINING me because it resonates really hard with me and especially right now I relate so much and oh god my heart. Started tearing up while singing along because I realized who I was singing to.
@@jess-wp9bb Platt has been OUT AS A GAY GUY since he was 16 years old. Everyone that went to school with him knows, all of us who had worked with him also knows this. Not a secret AT ALL. Plus he's always on Tinder matching with guys.
Such a gorgeous song. SUCH a powerful performance. I am SO lucky that I got to see you live in Dear Evan Hansen. I cannot wait for the full album. SO much talent in one person.
Hey Ben, it's Michael from Nova Scotia. I've spent my entire afternoon cleaning and creatively cooking with your Live Concert from Netflix playing all the way (twice!). You and your voice have helped this disabled gay guy tremendously and I thank God for you!
Have I been living under a rock? Loved him n Pitch Perfect such a cutie?!! But I didn't know he sang professionally. So glad I came across this by accident. Love love love his voice. Such feeling!!! Do the damn thang Ben Platt.
There are songs that are just so human, so perfect and universal that just hit you hard at a time a place in your life you need them most. I can allready tell this album is gonna do that for me. 😊😭
I love the wavering, the cracks, the rawness of his voice. It's so amazing that he chose to have those imperfections after sound production; we don't get that a lot.
@@coyfish4610 I just saw you making another rude comment. I guess it's a recurring problem. Yes the literal connotation was not about coming out. Do I think that the writing and word choice was intentional? Absolutely.
Vocals: perfection Video: perfection Ben Platt: PERFECTION, obviously. And can we just all agree that this is the precise degree of facial hair for this man? Because he’s always adorable, but this half beard is the most glorious thing I’ve ever seen.
This gives me serious coldplay vibes, but the two tracks he's released today are seriously beautiful and if they're anything to go by I think were in for a treat with his album. Just when you think you couldn't admire the guy anymore eh?
You always said that I'd come back to you again 'Cause everybody needs a friend It's true Someone to quiet the voices in my head Make 'em sing to me instead It's you Hate to say that I love you Hate to say that I need you Hate to say that I want you But I do Bad habit, I know But I'm needing you right now Can you help me out? Can I lean on you? Been one of those days I don't wanna come out Can you help me out? Can I lean on you? You make me feel like I'm floating off the ground Above this little town You do Look at me smile with tears in my eyes I love the way you lie I do Hate to say that I'm lonely Hate to say that I miss you Hate to say that it's dark in here But it's true Ohh, bad habit, I know But I'm needing you right now Can you help me out?

But its true

Why is this at the bottom and not at the top
Who else found him in pitch perfect, loved him in dear Evan Hansen, and just found all his albums and is binge listening to him? Just me?
Meeeeeeeeee
Id seen him in politician. I didn't reilzed he was in pitch perfect
Taija H not alone
I am an old Dutch man and just discovered Ben and indeed, I am binge listening. Regularly I cannot keep it dry!
Found him on accident in Dear Evan Hansen which he absolutely dominated but yeah, awesome guy
I get vibes of:
Make You Feel My Love by Adele meets Drops Of Jupiter by Train with a hint of Sara Bareilles and Sam Smith. 💖👏
SAME!!
And When I Was Your Man by Bruno Mars
Yes!!!
The Drops of Jupiter sound is what hooked me instantly
Drops of Jupiter!! Yes
Ben Platt is the best vocalist and not enough people know it. This is so stunning!!!!!
Why don’t they play this man on the radio istg he must be on the radio somewhere
Ben Platt is not from this planet.
You right! He is like Superman he came to Earth to save us all with his vocals!
Trueee
He is an angel
Shippy Heck yeah he is!
Simple truth
Am I the only one that kinda hears “Drops of Jupiter” by Train in the instrumental arrangement?? But still, this is fkn excellent!!
Immedietly where I went. And this is on par if not farther on the greatness.
First chord was the same exact chord :)
Me too
I don’t remember. Can you hum a few bars?
OMG SAMMMEE. I THOUGHT hmm drops of Jupiter
I saw him back when he was in Book of Mormon on Broadway, and he came to stage door to see us even though it was raining. I'm so proud of where he is now
It's so comforting to hear songs like this and see artists like him in today's music.

okay, let’s all say it together now.
MAKING MY WAY DOWNTOWN. WALKING FAST. FACES PASS. AND I’M HOMEBOUND*. NANANANANANANANNA

Jelly Potato2 Awesome sing as expected!
Is anyone else astonished by the fact that we exist in the same time as BEN PLATT. Just me? Impossible.
Cried and cried and cried listening tonight. My Ellie loved this song... I miss her so bad, my heart could break in two right now. Thank you Ben x
I'm 30 seconds in and already tearing up. ahhhhhhhhh your voice is perfection. Edit: Oh my God my wig is gone, I'm quaking, and this is amazing.
THE NOTES R KILLING ME!!!!!!! DAMMMMMMNNNNNN.... MY EARS R LITERALLY BLESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vocals: perfection
Video: perfection
Ben Platt: PERFECTION, obviously.
And can we just all agree that this is the precise degree of facial hair for this man? Because he’s always adorable, but this half beard is the most glorious thing I’ve ever seen.
This gives me serious coldplay vibes, but the two tracks he's released today are seriously beautiful and if they're anything to go by I think were in for a treat with his album. Just when you think you couldn't admire the guy anymore eh?
3:01
a replay button for learning that one riff, you’re welcome
You always said that I'd come back to you again
'Cause everybody needs a friend
It's true
Someone to quiet the voices in my head
Make 'em sing to me instead
It's you
Hate to say that I love you
Hate to say that I need you
Hate to say that I want you
But I do
Bad habit, I know
But I'm needing you right now
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
Been one of those days
I don't wanna come out
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
You make me feel like I'm floating off the ground
Above this little town
You do
Look at me smile with tears in my eyes
I love the way you lie
I do
Hate to say that I'm lonely
Hate to say that I miss you
Hate to say that it's dark in here
But it's true
Ohh, bad habit, I know
But I'm needing you right now
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
Been one of those days
I don't wanna come out
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Can I lean on you?
What a great talent , that voice is so velvety, calms me
MISTER SIR ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE A HUMAN AND NOT AN ANGEL?
BECAUSE MY SOUL IS BLESSED RN
