Totally beautiful, just like every other one of his songs. This guy is just genius, his music is the most beautiful I have ever heard by a long long way, so glad he is finally getting the recognition he deserves and he is such a lovely guy too...
This is definitely my favourite song by Ben Howard, and also 'Depth Over Distance'. He is truly amazing, my most favourite male singer and song writer ever. Ben Howard is the future.
Hey, just wanted to say congratulations for winning last night at the Red Stripe awards. I wish you all the luck for your future - you deserve big things - you're a total talent. And I'll be buying your EP as soon as it comes out... keep us posted!
I love how the 'buzz' from people talking in the bar/pub fades to silence right after he starts singing, The first time I heard him live was @ Lowlands 2012, I already enjoyed his music, but he is so much better live...Simply amazing!
This artists growth has been the most enjoyable to me! And I knew U2 was going to be huge stars in 79. Ben you have made it brother! Once the US pulls it's head out of ass and discovers you- that's it! Your a huge star! Congratulations! You more than earned it! Peace
This guy is beautiful. He's been on my ipod for months but until today i'd never checked him out online. think i might get obsessed ;) Brilliant work! Keep it up BH! x
This brings back the feeling I had when I first saw Bon Iver on RU-vid. And at times his voice reminds me of Ray LaMontagne's. So overall pretty good score I would say. I wish I could get a proper mp3 of this.
LYRICS: You’re under the same set of stars We lay there worlds apart You’re still saying “I can feel your heart beat” And I still find it hard in the middle of the night trying to sleep Oh come find the years and get older, find them in the world, like solder to a fire oh oh. Solder to a fire.
Ben Howard is amazing! definitely unique in voice and guitar playing, why is none of his stuff up on iTunes? other than These Waters EP (which is five amazing tracks) but we want more!
LYRICS: Chorus: How close to heaven can you get before the sun burns your eyes? Oh baby. You were like a child when you wept, yeah through salt stained lullabies… We played games with the distance Yeah phone call, phone call just to listen We held, oh hand… You said “Baby, baby, baby, I never want to make your heartless” For now words get lost in the dark When the morning comes, the dew drowns out the spark Chorus x 2
LYRICS: (with some blanks - feel free to fill them in!) We played games in the park … steady this… You said “Oh I can feel your heart beat” And I told you “Sometimes when I stay the night I find it hard, hard to sleep” We played yeah, like lovers in the moonlight We stay here, stubborn in the softness and the light
because it's all very small, i guess. he hasn't even got a proper cd album.. he's got a demo though, with about five (brilliant) tracks on it.. shame that often small talent hasn't got the chance to get the attention and fame it deserves.
