I had a lot of fun recording this one - Acoustic version of W.A.S.P. - Wild Child from their album The Last Command cover by Ben Owen. For regular updates, head over to my Instagram - / benjammin_
Douglas (from W.A.S.P.) had the good idea to notice your Wild Child cover on his Facebook. Bravo for your successful work !!! This acoustic cover is... delicious to our ears !!!
Oh my gosh!!! Really fantastic rendition. Totally dig how you got those sentiments from the original and turned them to something really special acoustically! Wow!
I literally collided with you here. My hope for you is that you are still creating. Perfecting your craft. What an AMAZING vocalist you were 2 years ago. I can not imagine where you arrived to! Being a creative artist individual myself via poetry writer & a dancer I appreciate real raw unhinged talent & to me you are the flame. The fire. With the light that shines so very brightly. I HEARD you but more importantly I FEEL you & that is the difference with me. Your passion is clearly unquenchable as well as intoxicatingly beautiful. I am someone who has always seen far beyond the normal observation & I see that there is more to you to this than most would never see. You are captivating. What a gift you are to this world. Never let your music die inside you. Never sell yourself out. Be the original you always. Stay true to yourself. No matter what. And remember its all about commitment bcuz if you are 99% IN you are 100% out. May love & White Light Surround You & Empower You Until Nevermore. Enuff Said. April
Thank you for that beautiful comment April, it really warms me. I’m creating new music, writing and recording and I’ll be sharing my new songs here in the new year! Hope you get a chance to listen. Thank you for your good energy ✨❤️ Ben
💚 Your Welcome! ⚡️ I will be following you. Wherever you go within your creative element. You impacted me with your art & trust me when I say that I DO NOT impact easily. I can not wait for your new music & where you take this. When we push ourselves to our limits creatively incredible things absolutely happen but when we push ourselves beyond those limits & we blur our own lines that is where the real beauty comes into light through our art. May the stars always shine bright for you Ben. You truely are one in a million. April
I ride, I ride the winds that bring the rain A creature of love and I can't be tamed I want you, cause I'm gonna take your love from him And I'll touch your face and hot burning skin No, he'll never ever touch you like I do So look in my eyes and burn alive the truth I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I want you Tell me, tell me the lies you're telling him when you Run away 'cause I wanna know Cause I, I'm sure it's killing him to find That you run to me when he lets you go 'Cause I'm burning, burning, burning up with fire So - come turn me on and turn the flames up higher I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me Cause I want what you do I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me Cause I want what you do I want you A naked heat machine, I want your love When the moons arise we'll feel just what it does I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you My heart's in exile I need you to touch me 'Cause I want what you do I want you

Great cover, Ben, congrats! I am listening to this song on repeat and was looking for some covers and yours stood out, tasteful playing and soulful singing!
Hi Ben, loving your videos. I've had my channel for years but watching channels like yours has inspired me to make lots of covers too during the lockdown. Stay safe 👌🌈
