This song breaks my heart. Memories are great, but being reminded of what you lost, how you messed up, and ultimately, being reminded you're alone. Nothing is worse than having none to share your thoughts with. All I want, is someone to confide in. How pathetic.
There is something worse than having no one to share your thoughts with, and that's having the thoughts of others forced upon you, in whatever way. Being alone is absolutely fine, being left alone is essential to live any sort of pleasant life. One day perhaps all of us will just be left alone.
Couldn't agree with you more mate hoping to see a little bit more Ben Howard soon...I think he's been hiding in the Wood for a while with that blaze of a feather band.
proper class... not many about today who can hold a candle to his musicianship and songwriting... unique LH guitar style which just makes a little magic, voice that is epic. This will sound just as strong in 20, 40 and 100 years time. Timeless.
My girlfriend of four years left me a few weeks ago. No reason other than she wanted to go to uni. She cut me off after 4 great years together and I don’t see the point in much anymore. It feels like I have to struggle to wake up in the mornings, and I get this pain in my gut when I see photos of her and me. I’m struggling to see the bright side of things right now, and I guess I’m feeling pretty alone.
Jacob symons Jacob, I just read your comment and had to write something. Maybe I’m opening old sores but let me tell you that the brazilian writer Fernando Sabino once said “everything is going to be fine in the end, and if it‘s not fine, it‘s not the end“. So stay busy, do what you love and you will eventually find the love of your life.
Thomas K I just wanted to say how much your comment touched me.i never expected anyone to respond or acknowledge what i said. I’m trying to keep my head down and focus on myself after what has happened. I just wanna thank you because you boosted me in a time I really need it, thank-you so much friend, you’ve really helped me
4:59am setting next to what's left of my fire watching the stars. Grounded and receiving information. Don't ever forget to stop and look at the stars take a breath and remember your place ✌
If a 'heartbreak' had a voice it would be this song. it comes with the very explicit of every bit of emotion you feel when you're broken! from the softest tone of feeling to the strongest and angriest. very powerful!
I love when they use this soundtrack in movies. I first it on the Series Power when Ghost and Angela broke up. It fit just right. Perfect for that scene.
This song just made me feel something different tonight. A shift. A change. Whatever you want to call it. I cannot describe. It felt like my heart was playing with the strings and my vision just changed completely. I know what I need to do for myself now❤️ Beautiful piece of music.
Love yourself? Put your relationship and kindness with you first so you're better able to help? Yeah. I hope you did that. If not a year ago, Do that now. Song got me through a thing once, call it a maze, I kept coming back to this song. It's a beautiful piece of artistic expression. What have you done with your new vision in the past year? I hope it was great.
As someone who’s currently undergoing a breakup of a 7-year relationship, I can assure you that the second half of this song is EXACTLY what heartbreak feels like. I hope if you’re reading / listening, you never understand what it’s like.
I agree with your analysis on the comparability of the chaos and pain within the song and it being synonymous with heartbreak. However, this pain is inevitable when you fall in love, at least for the majority of people. Whether they break up or the other half dies, this pain is there. Without risking the pain you will never have experienced love, and to me that is worse than any heartbreak imaginable
after he lost his Dad that early in his Life this young Boy developed into an great Man of whom his Father would have been very proud of..iam very sure
Someone felt the same pain and composed a song from the suffering soul. Tonight he's patching up my own soul in the middle of the night. I thank God for the gift of pouring feelings into such a beautiful song. Thank you to the author for something so wonderful.
Do you feel it too? That feeling when your mind shuts down emotions, so your heart doesnt break apart again. That sinking feeling inside you, where your being doesn't want to get hurt. Screw this world man. Seems that everything in it is there to hurt you, sooner or later. More or less. Everything hurts.
damn. yeah, i have experienced that. i can assure you you aren't alone in that regards, we don't feel the same exact way, but it is pretty darn similar, ill tell you that.
This guys musis is just pure perfection, went to see him live in Glasgow, amazing. Every song he has done is like nothing else out there, totally underrated musician or this era.
This is the best piece of music ive ever listened too, the way he took the emotions from Maurice Bendrix from the novel all the way through out is just amazing.
God why can't I stop crying listening to half of Ben Howard's songs? There is something so deeply emotionnal, from another world. It's a mix of joy and sadness, a nostalgia from a faded memory, so beautiful and so sad at the same time.
This song is so perfect and right on point..then you wonder why she got upset..never blame her for her reaction for your ways. I will always stand for respect..once played..my emotions change. You will forever live in regret for the way you treated me. I didn’t anything wrong to cause this tragedy. Reflection!🔥🔥
Lyrics The end of the after The weight of a war The kindness, gone to bed The weight of your laughter Alive in the hall Did he hear, did he hear the fumbled words you said? Living without her Living at all, seems to slow me down Living forever Hell I don't know Do I care do I care? the thunders rumbled sound And now I watch her Running round in love again Now I talk about you When I'm with our mutual friends The end of the after The weight of a war The kindness gone to bed The treat of your laughter Alive after all Did he hear, did he hear the fumbled words you said Living without her Living at all, seems to slow me down Living forever Pale light on all Do I care, do I care The thunders rumbled sound Now I watch her running round in love again Now I talk about you when I'm with our mutual friends Could you be, could you be alone? My hatred, my hate will bring me closer So this is hell This is desert And what the hell? What the hell love What the hell So this is hell This is desert What the hell :(
We live for 6 years together. Suddenly she decided that I'm not her priority, and she wants to live more things. She's not sure about her goals and feeling. Now we barely talk, the end is near.
she was a trail run.You will grow to understand that she is missing out, it a wonderful thing to have someone to go through this experience with but it's also better to live in truth and be with someone who knows thier feeling and your the goal.
THE SONG OF MY LIFE!!! I've always felt like in those movies where a couple shares their favorite song, but I'm into music a lot, i know thousands of songs, GOOD SONGS, not a matter of taste and then I always wanted to have a favorite in case someday somebody ask, and like Ben Howard said: THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This man was a part of my Saturn return. Basically, a horrible time of my life. He made me feel less alone and allowed me an avenue to express my pain. Thanks man. 🙏🏻❤️ We're better now. Xo
Thank you Ben, you will never know how much your music helps me to get through this bad times. I really hope to see you live soon, I'm working hard to become a good Doctor, work and buy me a ticket to wherever you play. Greetings from Costa Rica.
Listening to Ben Howard will heal your soul!!! Music, lyrics, and a voice that will take you to places within yourself, that you've never visited , but that needed your attention!! Unbelievable talent!! ❤🙌
Lost a good friend at da weekend rip fletch never forgotten a true soldier 🙏 love you always helping other people like he was a god from above love you mate never b da same without you love gardy n family xxxxxxxxx 🙏
This is torture. I cant commit suicide because God will be there waiting for me to condemn me. I cant keep living because the Devil will be here waiting for me to wake up day in and day out. The past never mattered because the present doesnt matter in the end everything was all for nothing. I cant give up and giving in is no different im forced to live with this torture.
To me, this is old relationships. But the biggest most important thing it reminds me of is the bond of 18 years i had with my dog. She got me through pain, loss, and the death of my father she helped me find my heart again. She's been gone 3 years now. My heart is stone again
when you start to doubt your doing the right thing after thoughtfull and deliberate choices..failure? eyes up people.. i just found the deepwater jam of my lifes soundtrack.. inspired to return to my true form of self.. resend the negative events that complicate our perception of our identities.. go blue jays..
Although you may say it is nothing original... There is something unusual and... some miracle... in this moment, when I can't express feelings with my own words, and suddenly I hear the song - which tells them all. It helps a lot. It is beautiful and very important. Thank you for all of this.
Brings me back to my teenage days when I was trying my best to be with that one I knew I fell in love, that one and only first love, and is now what I live and die for till this day I will never forget bout this song again thank you to the show POWER for the reminder ❤
I'm so glad Ghost left Angela Valdez or i would of never knew of this musical genius named Ben Howard. This man so deep....love all his songs especially River in your mouth and Promise
Ben Howard your music has got me threw so much so many nights by my self but some how never feel alone with your music to keep me company so much much feeling in your music i love it

How pathetic.
being gas-lighted by a fucked up girl with a vivid imiagination is way worse than being alone. Get a cat.
Gotta love yourself
@@SeanLives Says who?
Not pathetic at all. Nearly all of us feel like this. We are just not brave enough to share it-like you. Thank you.
There is something worse than having no one to share your thoughts with, and that's having the thoughts of others forced upon you, in whatever way. Being alone is absolutely fine, being left alone is essential to live any sort of pleasant life. One day perhaps all of us will just be left alone.
Most underrated musician in the past 10 years. Seems great music gets overlooked these days. But this man is pure class.
Couldn't agree with you more mate hoping to see a little bit more Ben Howard soon...I think he's been hiding in the Wood for a while with that blaze of a feather band.
Not enough swearwords and autotune
Singers and musicians like Ben Howard, their work never gets it's accolades until they have passed away... ♥️
proper class... not many about today who can hold a candle to his musicianship and songwriting... unique LH guitar style which just makes a little magic, voice that is epic. This will sound just as strong in 20, 40 and 100 years time. Timeless.
how many mln views makes you underrtaed ?
This song is so clever. The way the music changes and he gets angry. He's bloody amazing. Why is he not on every music station he's phenomenal xx
Not plastic, can't put him in a box, what genre is this even, really?

Hope things are looking up for you now king 👑
i see both beauty and tragedy in his songs.
That is what composes poetry. Always a sublime duel between beauty and tragedy.
Check out "Les Fleurs du Mal" by Baudelaire.
There is both beauty and cruelty in this world and often times the two are inseparable.
There literally is no beauty without ugliness, and no ugliness without beauty. They ONLY exist because of the other. 🙏
His music is exactly that great definition

very powerful!
With no doubt.
And it fits all kinds of heartbreak not just that of a failed relationship this song got me through a very hard time in life .
I can relate because i am struggling everyday just waking up and facing life
I love when they use this soundtrack in movies. I first it on the Series Power when Ghost and Angela broke up. It fit just right. Perfect for that scene.
Ben howard mate you saved me from a lonely dark path your music is class and thank you mate .tommy
same tommy, same.
Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for bringing Ben Howard into my life.
Same 👍
Danks Tommy. Hören alles Ihre Playlist. Toll... 😎
HARPER77 tooovy ok
This song just made me feel something different tonight.
A shift. A change. Whatever you want to call it. I cannot describe.
It felt like my heart was playing with the strings and my vision just changed completely. I know what I need to do for myself now❤️
Beautiful piece of music.
🧡
End your affair ?
Midnight, absurd thoghts and this song.
Universe is unveiling the Magic!!!
Precisely what I feel, hearing this now.
Love yourself? Put your relationship and kindness with you first so you're better able to help? Yeah. I hope you did that. If not a year ago, Do that now. Song got me through a thing once, call it a maze, I kept coming back to this song. It's a beautiful piece of artistic expression. What have you done with your new vision in the past year? I hope it was great.
I just can't deal with how good this song is. Definitely my favourite
Adriaan Boshoff my definite favorite song of all time too.
Damn I have to agree..
I actually think the live version on Jules Holland is ever better than the studio one
As someone who’s currently undergoing a breakup of a 7-year relationship, I can assure you that the second half of this song is EXACTLY what heartbreak feels like. I hope if you’re reading / listening, you never understand what it’s like.
yes.

The ending of this song feels like a torrent of rain has subsided after days of heavy pouring. What a musician !!
after he lost his Dad that early in his Life this young Boy developed into an great Man of whom his Father would have been very proud of..iam very sure
Hiosho huh?
Someone felt the same pain and composed a song from the suffering soul. Tonight he's patching up my own soul in the middle of the night. I thank God for the gift of pouring feelings into such a beautiful song. Thank you to the author for something so wonderful.
Do you feel it too?
That feeling when your mind shuts down emotions, so your heart doesnt break apart again.
That sinking feeling inside you, where your being doesn't want to get hurt.
Screw this world man. Seems that everything in it is there to hurt you, sooner or later. More or less. Everything hurts.
couldn't have said it better bro
damn. yeah, i have experienced that. i can assure you you aren't alone in that regards, we don't feel the same exact way, but it is pretty darn similar, ill tell you that.
I understand and agree .. 😢
Someone broke your heart Ben, As someone has broke mine, luv you man !
Ben Howard you saved me from a life full of mediocre music. Thank you for putting things into lyrics that I’ve always wanted to say.
This is the sound of heartbreak
This guys musis is just pure perfection, went to see him live in Glasgow, amazing. Every song he has done is like nothing else out there, totally underrated musician or this era.
asaf avidan
This is the best piece of music ive ever listened too, the way he took the emotions from Maurice Bendrix from the novel all the way through out is just amazing.
This song is such a nice mix between sadness and regret and in the latter part the agression and non acceptance of what happened between the two
EXACTLY
Duygularima tercüman olmuşsunuz l
That instrumental is absolutely beautiful. It literally sends chills through my body every time!
Absolutely the guitars are amazing
How can someone be this talented?? Ben Howard is a beautiful soul.
I do believe every song this guy has is just filled with nostalgic vibes of regret, love, loss, fear...the entire human experience every single time.
God why can't I stop crying listening to half of Ben Howard's songs? There is something so deeply emotionnal, from another world. It's a mix of joy and sadness, a nostalgia from a faded memory, so beautiful and so sad at the same time.
Revisiting ...still one of the best songs ever.🎼
I really love this song, coming back to Ben Howard every now and then is perfect
Cant believe I'm just discovering this guy. His music sets me free!
Now.. This is music! The lyrics.. The lyrics
I've been listening to this song for 3 years, it still impacts me as much as it did the first time I heard it
when a song gives you chills you know it's good...
One of the most underestimated performers in these times. And a great song, that I will never miss. Well done, Ben!
Well done you Daniel x
This song is so perfect and right on point..then you wonder why she got upset..never blame her for her reaction for your ways. I will always stand for respect..once played..my emotions change. You will forever live in regret for the way you treated me. I didn’t anything wrong to cause this tragedy. Reflection!🔥🔥
Lyrics
The end of the after
The weight of a war
The kindness, gone to bed
The weight of your laughter
Alive in the hall
Did he hear, did he hear the fumbled words you said?
Living without her
Living at all, seems to slow me down
Living forever
Hell I don't know
Do I care do I care? the thunders rumbled sound
And now I watch her
Running round in love again
Now I talk about you
When I'm with our mutual friends
The end of the after
The weight of a war
The kindness gone to bed
The treat of your laughter
Alive after all
Did he hear, did he hear the fumbled words you said
Living without her
Living at all, seems to slow me down
Living forever
Pale light on all
Do I care, do I care
The thunders rumbled sound
Now I watch her running round in love again
Now I talk about you when I'm with our mutual friends
Could you be, could you be alone?
My hatred, my hate will bring me closer
So this is hell
This is desert
And what the hell?
What the hell love
What the hell
So this is hell
This is desert
What the hell
:(
❤️💔❣️
C me n you🐦
💖 in love with this song.
Medicine to me

Wow. Just...wow. Led to this track by a John Martyn docu and I am so very grateful to have found this.
Over time, his music really changed and matured into incorporating much more complex emotions and experience. This is simply powerful!!
I first heard this song on the show Power. Loved it ever since.
I can't even explain how amazing this song is.
Ben Howard = Divine Comedy...

This song doesn’t even help, but I keep listening 💔
jesus writing songs - Ben Howard - thank your opening my heart - you are a great musician

I haven’t heard this song in about 4 years and it just popped up in my suggestions. Now i’m sobbing.
You made me cry again after so long... thank you Ben.
Listening to Ben Howard will heal your soul!!! Music, lyrics, and a voice that will take you to places within yourself, that you've never visited , but that needed your attention!!
Unbelievable talent!! ❤🙌

That's absolutely breathtaking. 🎶🎶
My twin has been persistently asking me to listen to Ben but it took me awhile to listen to his work. Though this definitely strike a cord within.
This just stops you from whatever you are doing. Overwhelming feeling of emotions, triggers, and so much more.
Lost a good friend at da weekend rip fletch never forgotten a true soldier 🙏 love you always helping other people like he was a god from above love you mate never b da same without you love gardy n family xxxxxxxxx 🙏
Love you so much. Wish you would release something new. Hope you are well! XX
This is torture.
I cant commit suicide because God will be there waiting for me to condemn me.
I cant keep living because the Devil will be here waiting for me to wake up day in and day out.
The past never mattered because the present doesnt matter in the end everything was all for nothing.
I cant give up and giving in is no different im forced to live with this torture.
just found this,,, what a gem 💎
Sung so softly, but so powerful and heartfelt. Beautiful
When ghost leaves Angela at end of episode 6. Then listening to her sobbing to the melody of this song. Omg how I cried!!!!
This song really captures a break up its amazing. It out-stands a lot of music today
powerful, the kinda angry rarely expressed so well in a song. it moved me.
I fell in love with his music the first time I heard him. He is great.
I'm hooked !!! New obsession.
the vibes bring me back to life .
To me, this is old relationships. But the biggest most important thing it reminds me of is the bond of 18 years i had with my dog. She got me through pain, loss, and the death of my father she helped me find my heart again. She's been gone 3 years now. My heart is stone again
I love this so much. Love you Ben Howard. You always make unique melodies.
this song is beautifully put together ... I LOVE!!💕
Seeing him tomorrow at the BIC in Bournemouth 🎉love how his music just connects with my soul
I feel this in the deepest parts of my soul...
Can we please have Ben Howard back in our lives with new music or some virtual prescence :(
when you start to doubt your doing the right thing after thoughtfull and deliberate choices..failure? eyes up people.. i just found the deepwater jam of my lifes soundtrack.. inspired to return to my true form of self.. resend the negative events that complicate our perception of our identities.. go blue jays..
Bobby Larsen I know this comment is two years old, but my god the inspiring words. Thank you for this.
You had me for a sec on your first sentence...

As a fellow singer songwriter guitar player whos been around. Youve definitely struck a chord thats very special keep makin music
This song though....Ended episode 6 of Power perfectly!
Honor Me it made me want to end a relationship just to feel Ben, Ghost & Angela’s pain 😂
Exactly! This is how I found this amazing song
This voice is so painful. It touches you on some other level damn
It was our favorite song, once upon a time. I'll remember you, no doubt.
Love
