    This man makes me realize I don't need to strive for numbness to survive. I just need to breathe, feel my blood circulate and listen. All will right itself, or fade away.

      Thank you for this fivee year old comment that perfectly describes what if fell when i listen to Benjamin Clementine. It's like his music is telling the story of my life but turning it into somehting so utterly beautiful that I'm lost for words trying to describe it.

    Never had I seen Benjamin so open and this humorous. Loving his every poetic and melodic song. My #1, all the way from Durban-South Africa.

      when i saw him perform in tx it was a similar experience. he seemed closed off to the audience and shy. but as the show went on he became more comfortable. you saw this part of him that is vulnerable, patient and completely comedic. he appears so spectral. and he is. so much to learn from benjamin...

    Benjamin is way to be comfortable with being uncomfortable, makes people cry and laugh at same time, and this takes people out of comfort zone. It goes round and round, inspiring dream.
    And because so, I would say that Listen Benjamim is like read Poetry!

    My God this man is astonishing. I've never used that word to desribe anyone or anything in my 53 years on this planet. But he absolutely blew my mind. This man has talent beyond anything I have witnessed ever. And as strange as this may sound, I feel so much more musically well rounded having stumbled upon his music.

    I always come back to this video because I can never figure out where to find the final song he performs before ending his performance... Such a powerful song, yet nowhere to be found. I've guessed at this point this was just a scrapped song he came up with on the fly.
