This performance means an incredible amount to me. I have lost track of the amount of times I have sat in my garden, late evening with nothing but the stars and memories. This has got trough SO much in my life and means an incredible amount to me. Thank you, Ben for being there when I needed you most.
December 19th 2023 @ 00:42 MST. (07:42am UTC) Seven years hence and it still holds true. Tenfold more so than ever. MUSICAL MAGIC is what I've always referred to it as. When your very soul becomes your ears as it fills up your heart and your minds eye begins to feel.... I wish we could somehow live forever INSIDE that magical place we're taken to. Outside of space and time. Someone take me back to 2011/12 again. Pleeease. 2023 is an entirely different world than it was 🔙 then... And nothing is for the better. 📉📉 ~~
I don’t know if I’ll ever get to go to a Ben Howard concert (cause I live in Malaysia and broke as hell). But once in a while, I’ll just sit or lie in my room fully dark with headphones on and imagine being right there. This particular show is just something. Pure therapy!
So a good friend of my family just nearly died ... and I forgot to pause this video. I came back completely shocked, took my headphones and "Keep you Head up" was playing and now I sit here crying but with hope that he will survive. Thank you Ben.
Hi, so ... a few weeks ago this good friend I mentioned died from cancer and the effects of the sickness he already had at the point I wrote this. He had lung cancer and his sickness left only 50% of his lung capacity to actually be used. So it was no real surprise that he passed away in the end but it still was very heavy. I'm happy for him that he doesn't suffer anymore though ... Thank you for the well wishes, appriciate it! :)
I am with you And no i tell about him knows him. I feel alone in my awe then i read comments here and see i am not crazy. This is up there with Miles Davis and shit. But better because he is humanity
Going to see Ben live tomorrow night in Dublin for the third time. As excited as I am, and as grateful as I am to have seen him before.. I would give all of them up to have been at this show. Unbelievable stuff.
Amazing..... Esmerelda just gives me chills.... I could and have listen to this concert over and over again. Thank You for uploading and of course Thank You Ben and crew !!!
I just love Ben Howard, I found him years ago with Keep your head up and Old Pine, then esmerelda. He had only a few watchers then and I would share his stuff all the time, then more and more people started discovering him and now you see how many people just love him, it's so great to see his success, he truly deserves it all. such a great band.
Despite the fact that Noonday Dream is my favorite Ben era this is his best and most powerful performance that I've seen, just absolute perfection start to finish
As a young mother...having a freak stroke... can't sing anymore... how I wish I could sing oat in the water once more to my babies🥲But praise God I'm here to hug them. To Jesus Christ my Savior, all glory given!
I ended up here after reading someone's comment under one of Ben's acoustic videos mentioning Casino de paris and honestly this is the best thing I've listened to all month. If only I could download this. My ears have been blessed 💙
Met him and worked with Ben at Eden project in Cornwall and boardmasters at acoustic stage. Interacts with the crowd and plays amazing music. All round good bloke .
I keep coming back to witness this magic performance and let the music carry me away far from all these life's drama. It's a wonderful and peaceful feeling!😊
The Way they sing Love Love Love, with the emphasis on different parts really gets to me, Its as if there vocalising the different ways in-which love is expressed.
Such a *chef's kiss* concert. While I do say this about almost every live performance of Ben Howard - regardless, the Powers that Be still ought to bless your gracious soul for posting this. Hugs.
"I spent my time watching the spaces that have grown between us. and I cut my mind on the second to best. Oh, the scars that come with the greenness. and I gave my eyes to the boredom. Still, the seabed wouldn't let me in." I've never heard anybody make lyrics like this nor have I ever been able to even slightly produce lyrics like this on my own
I do love all these songs, I call them campfire songs. That is the feeling that I get with them: friends, beach and fun. When it comes to the new ones it's a completely different thing, but still amazing. The shows are way less interactive, but the lights and musicality are even better than in their first album.

Careful mate Ben Howard warns people about sitting in the garden and listening to the radio

Burgh Island had me in tears. And not for the first time Mr Howard.....
+Timothy Frost YES
This is not music. This is magic , three years now I am listening to Ben day and night , what a talent

Cheers. Was struggling no nail the song I was after.
Peace out.
There's just something about him that just gets you, it's like through his songs he's trying to tell you his story. Absolutely amazing!
This surely has to be his best live performance ever- mesmerising.
If you get through this version of Promise without crying you are not human
Man i've listened to this at least a 100 times but everytime he starts to sing Promise it absolutely blows me away
best musician for years; ben howard smashed the nuts out of it.
stunning vocals goosebumps
This version of Promise is the single most beautiful thing that has ever existed.
Still is
Agree! It’s so peaceful, I love it
2023 and this is again the BEST live EVER
'Now I'm going places on my own' - such a hard hitting lyric
that one hit way too close to home
I m still listening to him...others may come n go but not BEN...HES WAYYY OUT OF THIS WORLD
to this day, this live version of "promise" has me in tears every single time i hear it.
and the ending is just magnificent.
that pure emotion flowing out of these people is just undescribable.... music at it's finest
this is probably the best concert to ever exist. jealous of all those who got to go and grateful it was uploaded for us
This is bloody brilliant. Talk about underrated.
Anyone still listening in August 2019
Yes, and January 2020
feb 2020
Are you kidding me every freakin day
March 2020
April 2020, ~monthly since 2016. wish i could purchase HD though...!!! Anyone??
So a good friend of my family just nearly died ... and I forgot to pause this video. I came back completely shocked, took my headphones and "Keep you Head up" was playing and now I sit here crying but with hope that he will survive. Thank you Ben.
Is he okay?
Godspeed, Sir. Hope you both are well.

My prayers to u
The best Ben ever.
I agree
In some strange way it makes me feel proud to be a true listener of the best current artist (my opinion)
Greatest artist of our generation
I am with you And no i tell about him knows him. I feel alone in my awe then i read comments here and see i am not crazy. This is up there with Miles Davis and shit. But better because he is humanity
Who would dislike this? His music is literally like a big hug wrapping me up and filling me with emotion!
true!
2022 and still best live performance ever
2023 and still
I don’t even listen to his official tracks anymore. This is the best. Would kill to have been there. Burgh Island…my God
@@mattrobinson4527these concerts are often 100 times better than the official songs
I have been listening to this for several years. It breaks my heart. It truly does...
Going to see Ben live tomorrow night in Dublin for the third time. As excited as I am, and as grateful as I am to have seen him before.. I would give all of them up to have been at this show. Unbelievable stuff.
this `guy` is just unreal......amongst the best artists/musicians ever!!....and take my word for it > I know a few!!
I love that ben howard goes from a shy man than cannot tell a story to bursting into a song of a story of the heart, but in song
Esmeralda was wow.
I've listened to this version of promise literally hundreds of times. It's perfect.
Still listening in 2020 and for the 100th time but somehow still feels like the 1st time I've ever seen it.!! Different levels.!!
I hear ya, I'm still here in ' 22...+forevermore
The Wolves and that piece that he does after it. Makes me smile every time, I'd go insane if he did that at a live performance where I would be!
Burgh Islands is great
Kyle Menzy m8 This entire performance was crazy good.
Amazing..... Esmerelda just gives me chills.... I could and have listen to this concert over and over again. Thank You for uploading and of course Thank You Ben and crew !!!

I can't stop listening to him! No one does music like he does! he's a genius without any doubt!
This gotta be my favorite live performance by Ben, it's absolutely amazing.
Might be my favorite video on TH-cam aswell.. Now that i think about it..
This is the perfect setlist.
Oh that version of Oats in the Water, awesome
My, this is so moving. Not only that he is one with his music, he is the music.
Despite the fact that Noonday Dream is my favorite Ben era this is his best and most powerful performance that I've seen, just absolute perfection start to finish
This and T in the park 2012/2013 are my top 2 but Ive come back to this one much more over the years
You did it Ben, you truly changed the world with this one.
I think i already had seen this same show more than 100 times...
Thank you so much, You don't know how I missed this concert, one of his best

i wish i could’ve seen him in concert 😢
such talent from the entire band - it's enough to bring a tear........
would literally die if i got to see this exact set in concert haha
Same bro, the version of Promise at the end is the single greatest thing I’ve ever heard
One of the best screams on esmeralda. Flashes me every time bringing all the emotions back
As a young mother...having a freak stroke... can't sing anymore... how I wish I could sing oat in the water once more to my babies🥲But praise God I'm here to hug them. To Jesus Christ my Savior, all glory given!

You can - there is a direct download link in the comments
everything about this is perfect

18:59 - "And if I was ever to leave, I’ll say before I go, that you’re the best moment I ever known." oh my
Thank you. :)~
Is it not 'best woman'?
Best woman 😎
Lucigaïah He sometimes changed it between woman and moment
@@gaz6320 He does changed this from time to time. I prefer Moment though, more ease
Met him and worked with Ben at Eden project in Cornwall and boardmasters at acoustic stage. Interacts with the crowd and plays amazing music. All round good bloke .
I was there.. probably the best gig ive ever been to.
to see Ben in a small intimate venue again is my dream with this set list
I keep coming back to witness this magic performance and let the music carry me away far from all these life's drama. It's a wonderful and peaceful feeling!😊
"The Wolves" in the best versions ever, in my opinion.
Yeah, in my opinion the instrumental part in the end is amazing.
The Way they sing Love Love Love, with the emphasis on different parts really gets to me, Its as if there vocalising the different ways in-which love is expressed.
WOW, the intro from Oats In The Water is amazing. Goose bumps
This music give me hope in my darkest days.
Thanks for posting...
Mind blowing set!
Much love.
Anyone else still hear 6 years later?
the reverb just makes it that more increible
Wow, I need to see this guy live.
I would lose 5 years of my life to go back in time and watch this concert.
This version of the wolves is my favourite without a doubt!
Me too !!!
I do like what he does for his music fans and the exstage for his emotions on set and on stage
Wow, how did I just discover this? This is quality work here.
this is some seriously powerful stuff..just wow. words cant explain.
shut up idiot
This is beautiful absolutely sublime. One of few true artists to emerge in recent years. So much soul xxxxx
incredible display of vocal talent and musicality. Covered in goosebumps for an hour- Ben Howard you are a genius!
That intro to oats in the water was just magical. I love it when music transcends words.
So beautiful cos i had tears in my eyes saying in my head
My dad the best man i know
N u sang
The best woman ive ever known
Was pure class
Watching Nov-2019. Great concert still... saw him in Sydney in 2018... was great too
Always come back to this performance... the vocals are incredible
such a g8 singer words are lifting my soul every day i try to listen to his voice
why does Ben make me cry?
We need you back in the stage soon, Ben.
This is awesome. This dude needs more exposure.
I've listened so many times and keep coming back to it, thank you Ben, you gem you!
so much talent, can't believe..
I've come to know the friends around you, were all you always have...love this line
Goosebumps.
Everywhere
That guitar he plays for the fear. I have one just like it :)

Magnificent performance ! Beauty flowing right trough my ears, thank you.
Best live performance, been listening too ben for 4 years now he's just amazing
Wow. What a wonderful concert. Thank you for uploading and thank you, Ben Howard.
I can feel the great acoustics on my desk listening to this magic!

Ahh that moment where Ben used to slap the drum cymbal during the old pine outro.. A little bit nostalgic
I do love all these songs, I call them campfire songs. That is the feeling that I get with them: friends, beach and fun.
When it comes to the new ones it's a completely different thing, but still amazing. The shows are way less interactive, but the lights and musicality are even better than in their first album.
mariokonta When it comes to his live shows I much prefer his Every Kingdom tour shows.
Just listening to this until Ben Howard and co come back from their disappearance act :(
I like that they take plenty of time out. I can't wait to see what he returns with.
+TeddyPerv
Fair point; I can't wait either
Anyone knows when / if he's out for Concerts or Studio Work in 2017?
Check out a blaze of feather
INCOMINGGGG
Absolutely Incredible! What I would have given to be there....
KEEP YOUR HEAD UP, KEEP YOUR HEART STRONG
everyones talking about promise but goddamn this esmerelda rendition is sublime
