    His music gets me every time, i somehow always end up at ben howard. He's where i go when i'm happy, sad, lonely no matter what i'm feeling his music gets through to me, you can just feel every word and emotion. It takes me to a different place like nothing else can. His music is something special and touching, something i'm attached to. When i listen to him there is nothing else, his music fills me up and it solves everything, just for that moment. This seems like just a long rant, but if you close your eyes and really listen, you'll understand where i'm coming from.

    I used to live in Australia and would drive 40km to work every day and on the way home after a long shift I’d have the windows down and sing this song and the album with all I could.. oh the memories now.

    Goddammit, that's how my summer passed... she was in the kitchen, I didn't always listen that closely because she talked a lot. It felt like peace at last. Now she's gone to chase that greener grass. I've almost forgotten how close we were. It's amazing how something so deep can end so quickly.

      I can never understand how things with any amount of depth or truth can actually leave us. I always wonder why we chase these things all our lives and yet find ourselves giving it the opportunity to walk out on us before we even know it

    I genuinely think that this is one of the greatest love songs.
    Forgetting where you are, being with someone, feeling that
    you don't have to worry about time passing because you
    are sharing it with someone.

      @edward3320 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Unfortunately it's in the sense of forgetting how lucky you are to be where you are. You get complacent, you are distracted, you don't pick up the little beautiful things. "Skipping dancing eyes at the bedroom door", "I wasn't listening",

    This is one of those epic performances that makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up - Ben is the real deal when it comes to making musical art - Such a beautiful song of love and pain - it moves me to tears and if you can't feel it then check to see if you have a heart...

    Seen Ben three times and one was a very intimate pre tour practice at Bristol Uni. The guy is simply awesome. I miss India Born in his line up, her haunting voice and cello added even more depth. After nine Glastonbury’s and a lifetime of live music at almost 62 I have never seen a better live performer.

  • @nawie89
    @nawie89 8 ปีที่แล้ว +44

    I cry since I've discovered him, I swear. And it's nothing bad. It's a wonderful reaction to pure beauty.

    • @moschinopumps
      @moschinopumps 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      +nawie89 You used the term correctly. Robert was just being a pedantic so and so ... insinuating that you didn't discover him as though you are someone from the music industry. But you discovered him on a personal level.
      On a more important note, I appreciate what you said about crying being a 'wonderful reaction to pure beauty'. I resonate with this statement deeply. Thank you for sharing.

    Oh, hey
    I wasn't listening
    I was watching Syria blinded by the sunshine strip
    And you, you were in the kitchen
    Oh, your mariner's mouth
    The wounded with the wounder's whip
    And that's how summer passed oh
    The great dividing range of green, green grass
    Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew
    Hello love, my invincible friend
    Hello love, the thistle and the burr
    Hello love, for you I have so many words
    But I, I forget where we were
    Oh, hey
    I wasn't listening
    I was stung by all of us
    The blind leading out the bored
    And as per usual
    You were skipping and laughing eyes at the bedroom door
    "Don't take it so seriously, no
    Only time is ours, the rest we'll just wait and see!"
    Maybe you're right, babe, maybe
    Oh, no, and that's how summer passed
    Oh the great dividing range, the green green grass
    And, oh, maybe I hold on fast to you
    Hello love, my invincible friend
    Hello love, the thistle and the burr
    Hello love, for you I have so many words
    But I, I forget where we were
    I, I forget where we were
    I forget where we were
    I forget where we were
    Oh, no, and that's how summer passed
    Oh, your, great dividing range, the green green grass
    Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew

    This album came out the year my sister passed away aged 28.
    In my state of mind I locked into the lyrics.
    Away from that I like how he refers to watching Syria from the sunset strip.
    Peace to all humans.
    The green green grass of home.
