She's actually amazing as well. She can play an obscene amount of instruments and is perfectly in tune with Ben. He puts so much passion into each lyric. The look ben gives India when she starts in a verse early (3:40) is classic!!
I agree! When I read this, I initially thought you meant that he needs his music itself to be alive; for it to move, breathe and speak (for itself). Which is also true!
Oh I love this... look at 3:38. Backup vocals come in early. Ben looks over to her and smiles, she recognizes her mistake and smiles back. No drama, no interruption, still sounds incredible. Probably not even noticeable to anyone there. Just a nice moment between two amazing musicians playing a sensational live performance. These things happen and it's so cool to see it handled this beautifully live.
Great observation. I love these onstage dynamics and moments between band members - the behind-the-scenes in the scene. The way they shrug it off is very telling of the good vibes prevalent between Ben and his band members onstage. As a musician and audience member, this is what I live for next to the music, itself.
This is what flow state looks like. The way Ben can be so immersed in his songs and yet still be present to the moment. It truly is a beautiful sight to behold.
It's March 2021, I've been listening to this for over 10 years now and it never ever gets old! The skill this man holds in his fingers is extraordinary, couple that with his other worldly voice and you have the most goosebump enduring atrist in history. Ed sheeran hadn't a patch on Ben!
+willknoval why shouldnt she be bashed? yout hink of how many amazing artists have fell into obscurity because "celebrities" like the aforementioned are clogging up the airwaves.
This man's music has got me through more then anyone could ever know, to sit and listen to him in good and bad times will make us all appreciate something I promise 💯
When I was about five or six, maybe older, my father used to take me to this cafe where there was people playing different kind of string instruments (cello, double bass, violin). He says I used to just sit there eating a cake and get lost in the music, that I had a look of wonder on my face. I get that feeling seeing Ben Howard play now as I did when I was in that cafe aged 5 or 6, I just get enchanted by the music and it is a lovely feeling.
Shows how stripped down, heart felt, lyrics, combined with simple, well composed instrumentals are all you need. So glad I stumbled into this guy's talent. Reminds me of David Gray and Glen Hansard. Loved this performance.
The way his uses his guitar is actually hypnotic. I was just watching his hand movements at the start, then he starts singing plus his eyes closed and its just like how are you doing this? He is just such a fucking good musician!! Cannot wait to see him live in November.
You can tell he's so passionate about what he does, that he's relentlessly, undoubtedly in love with making music and creating masterpieces - and that's exactly what they are. Holy hell...that's EXACTLY what they are. The way his hands skim over his guitar over and over again, the way he furrows his eyebrows as he's concentrating...just perfect. Fucking PERFECT. Good god, I lose it when he says "lovely as you are" - he's a damned genius. Thank you, Ben, thank you.
Ben Howard opened my eyes towards acoustical music, most popular acoustic / singers use such simple guitar techniques, you hear the hard work Ben Howard puts in.
I stumbled upon this song again today on someone’s Instagram, and my senses were flooded with these sweet sounds from 10 years ago, a life that I can barely remember anymore - distant memories of what it seems another lifetime. I don’t even remember what I was doing listening to this song, maybe dancing alone in my living room, maybe cooking with an ex, maybe driving and smoking a cigarette like I used to - nonetheless even though I can’t remember, I remember all the lyrics, and every sweet sound, chord change, raw voice cracks and sweet emotion.
I made it! .Your a legend Ben, yourself and a couple of other musicians helped me get through the some dark times in the past 10 years. The song still cuts deep and sometimes I question if I am through the dark times. I’m sure time will tell.
Brent Gibala Don't like reading other peoples opinions? Easy solution. Stay off the internet, and most certainly stay out of the youtube comment section. Talk about selfish LOL!
Lmao, maybe it's your system. I'm on Pioneer digital 7.2 with special designed polk audio speakers to enhance guitar. This was when he started. And I do hear some pitch problems and vibrato is off at times but, so was Stings....I should know I have a Police bootleg...."who cares" I guess you did Lol...peace, aren't you dead yet? LOL
"Under The Same Sun" I lie in your charms Though it harms the best of me And I lie on to my friends to them No wonder why I wait for thee And I hope like a child Widow of the sea I hold these arms around you All's around me Will you be there when the day's done Will you be there Under the same, under the same sun Under the same, under the same sun My yearn oughta turn these things Turn these things around I learned from you Oh I made these plans, made this plans With you around dear With you around dear Will you be there when the day's done Will you be there Under the same, under the same sun Under the same, under the same sun Will you be there when the day's done Will you be there Under the same, under the same sun Under the same sun (Will you be there when the day's done Will you be there Under the same, under the same sun) Under the same sun [repeated] Lalalala lovely as you are [repeated]
+Jakub Wojajczyk the extra la la la added flavour to the live performance even if it was a mistake makes it its own unique version i legit wont listen to another version of this song because this is the one i heard first and the only one i found this good
found this guy at a festival before he made it big was incredible sunday morning sun had just came out and ben walked on stage.. something magic happened that day and now look at him... #beautifuldaysfestival
I love this performance. Ben looks like he's having an emotional breakdown and India is sitting there perfectly composed, watching her friend give his heart and soul away. its awesome.
WHY is this man not on MAINSTREAM RADIO?? Should be a PUNISHIBLE CRIME!! I just found him two days ago and I CANNOT STOP llistening!! My ass is killing me, my back is stuck and I highly doubt that my legs will work when I do finally try to stand and break away. PURE BRILLIANCE. If you are not moved to your core by him you either have NO SOUL or you are already dead. I cannot believe it took me until now to find him. EVERY version is better than the last. More talent, skill and genius in his pinky toe than ANY AND ALL "artists" before him. I mean EVERY goddamn letter of that.-Christy Fayard (Richards Mom-sorry bud. I had to)
Actually the views of Ben Howard's videos are jumping from thousands to millions. Mainstream Radio? Well, maybe he doesn't need a mainstream radio to reach people like you and me ;)
I have never listen to more relaxing but good beat music before in my life i just started listening and i and i love it when im stressed i just turn it on and i calm right down!!
Not only is this man blessed with an amazing voice! he has the audacity to become a wizard with an acoustic guitar! some people just make you feel talent-less!
some things will never grow old, honestly. and this is one of those things. the first song i heard was Black Flies and i was immediately hooked; this man doesn't just create music, he creates masterpieces and euphoric atmospheres, even if it's through a damn video online. i'd love to see him live!
Been a fan for a LONG TIME! Please never ever stop making music. Your music literally inspires me to be a better person everyday. Thank you for sharing your amazing gift with the world. You re absolutely amazing.
***** And Greetings to you too! Just typed in his name here and as the only description was his ´Every Kingdom´ Album, there wasn´t much else to tell me otherwise.

Luis Acosta Yeeees, I love it too
Yup
🙋

🖤
I'm a grown ass man and this dude makes me feel like a 15-year-old teenage fangirl.
😂😂 I'm glad I'm not alone.
That's cuz he's a lyrical genius!!.. and I'm pretty sure that guitar is playing him... 🥶😂
Let them feelings out and try not to bother with other people's oppinion(like calling you Gay as an example) and you will feel free!
Yeah, he's my favorite musician, worth fangirling over for sure
Let it out brother!
God was tired the day he made Ben - Instead of sharing out all the talent equally, he just gave it all to Ben and went back to bed.
Shit, you're right.
I can’t even tune my guitar the way he does let alone play it like that..never mind the singing, song writing, gorgeous haunting emotional lyrics
robot
She's actually amazing as well. She can play an obscene amount of instruments and is perfectly in tune with Ben. He puts so much passion into each lyric. The look ben gives India when she starts in a verse early (3:40) is classic!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
I can't stop looking at what he's doing with the guitar at the beginning. Hypnotizing and eargasmic as fuck. I'm breathless.
jon gomm passionflower see this guys guitar skills
Jon Gomm yes that's a name I'm glad to see in these comments. He makes beautiful music much like Ben!
It's an incredible feeling when you know you have found an artist that you will listen to for the rest of your days.

you can tell he needs music to live. he's so passionate about what he does and it shows through his performance. true musician right here
Amazing comment😀
I agree! When I read this, I initially thought you meant that he needs his music itself to be alive; for it to move, breathe and speak (for itself). Which is also true!
Watching this in 2023. Still to this day I haven’t seen anyone do it like Ben.
Oh I love this... look at 3:38. Backup vocals come in early. Ben looks over to her and smiles, she recognizes her mistake and smiles back. No drama, no interruption, still sounds incredible. Probably not even noticeable to anyone there. Just a nice moment between two amazing musicians playing a sensational live performance.

This is the Most magical Moment in the song tbh

the magic of live performances. Sometimes, the mistakes are what make the performance.
Damn, glad I read your comment. Woulda never realised that that was what it was about. Great stuff!
This is what flow state looks like. The way Ben can be so immersed in his songs and yet still be present to the moment. It truly is a beautiful sight to behold.
By far the most incredible songwriter of this generation
Hes top draw..🙌
not by far at all, Joey Burns from Calexico is one hell of a song writer ....
It's March 2021, I've been listening to this for over 10 years now and it never ever gets old!
The skill this man holds in his fingers is extraordinary, couple that with his other worldly voice and you have the most goosebump enduring atrist in history.
Ed sheeran hadn't a patch on Ben!
Just an incredibly talented fella who deserves the biggest spotlight in the world, instead of humans like "Kim Kardashian"...
+McLovin shes human?
+TheLycan1995 Apparently so..
+McLovin In order to promote someone there's no need to bash other people. unnecessary comparison.
+willknoval Not bashing, speaking the truth..
+willknoval why shouldnt she be bashed? yout hink of how many amazing artists have fell into obscurity because "celebrities" like the aforementioned are clogging up the airwaves.
When i have no one I still have Ben Howard 💜
This man's music has got me through more then anyone could ever know, to sit and listen to him in good and bad times will make us all appreciate something I promise 💯
I share the same feelings

This must be the most beautiful comment I've ever read
I don’t feel alone anymore when I have Ben Howard’s music.
Just unique.
Thank
You for what you do.❤️
Will never stop listening to your I forget where we were & every kingdom albums ♥️
Shows how stripped down, heart felt, lyrics, combined with simple, well composed instrumentals are all you need. So glad I stumbled into this guy's talent. Reminds me of David Gray and Glen Hansard. Loved this performance.
I agree, wouldn't call what he's doing with the guitar simple though!
my thoughts entirely - and I hear a whole lot of John Martin (RIP) who I have always loved.
He's got talent that is special and we have been gifted it.
Jeff Wortham I just stumbled.. I’m ashamed and embarrassed it took me this long ☮️💯💟
I stumbled by chance through Paul David's guitar channel and really have been amazed by Ben's musical personality and raw honest presence.
After all these years I always find myself coming back to this masterpiece 🙏🏽✨
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LOVELY AS YOU AREEEEE
+afcSharky grown man and i caught u slipping here....what you doing here.
omg wtf i always thought it was "Love me as you are." This changes everything... However I think the song was deeper as "Love me as you are"
Lovely as you are my dear !
is that u yeh
@@WillNE wait wtf
2023.... Ben Howard will and always will be the no.1 go-to-see act live!
this man plays that guitar like a keyboard, his quickness, his beat ability, his rhythm, he is a master. I don't normally envy but I envy him.
Always amazed by how Ben plays the guitar, it seems like he never settles for the obvious and easier musical paths! What a beauty, seriously !!!
This is so perfect in every way.
I truly believe that his music saves life's. It is preciously beautiful.
The way his uses his guitar is actually hypnotic. I was just watching his hand movements at the start, then he starts singing plus his eyes closed and its just like how are you doing this? He is just such a fucking good musician!! Cannot wait to see him live in November.
Ooooooooo ja …. Es gibt nix vergleichbares was nur annähernd da dran kommen könnte …. Hammer da sieht man und fühlt man LEIDENSCHAFT !!!!❤
that is pure talent. no one understands how hard it is to multitask between singing and playing guitar like that. beautiful, a true artist.
The look he gives India Bourne at 3:39 and her reaction, quality
zscott453 ty for pointin that out it made my day
Actually India Bourne made a mistake, and that look of his is to let her know that she started that lalala a bit earlier.
Salman Siddiqui that’s right it is still my favorite part though
@@snnafzal that mistake was perfect
The clapping was out of time
These two compliment each other so well in every song they do
I always come back to this when I'm feeling sad or my heart is broke. 10 years doesn't matter this will never get old
This song is very emmotional for me, it reminds me of my daughter and my battles with addiction and depression.
You can tell he's so passionate about what he does, that he's relentlessly, undoubtedly in love with making music and creating masterpieces - and that's exactly what they are. Holy hell...that's EXACTLY what they are. The way his hands skim over his guitar over and over again, the way he furrows his eyebrows as he's concentrating...just perfect. Fucking PERFECT.
Good god, I lose it when he says "lovely as you are" - he's a damned genius. Thank you, Ben, thank you.
Real music, through and through. This song gives me shivers every time.
Ben Howard ages like wine🍷
The sounds this man can coax out of a guitar is otherworldly.
It’s songs like this I feel lucky enough to still be alive after pushing through the hardest 2 years of my life ✨ music is literally life 🙏🏻
Well Said!! 🕊️
Brilliant. Just brilliant. Gives me goosebumps every time.
Pure talent.
this guy is ridiculously talented, going to one of his live shows is high on my of things to do
This version needs a Spotify upload
Ben Howard opened my eyes towards acoustical music, most popular acoustic / singers use such simple guitar techniques, you hear the hard work Ben Howard puts in.
Man.. Ben is getting BIG, I remember listening to him almost a year ago now when almost noone knew his name.
I stumbled upon this song again today on someone’s Instagram, and my senses were flooded with these sweet sounds from 10 years ago, a life that I can barely remember anymore - distant memories of what it seems another lifetime. I don’t even remember what I was doing listening to this song, maybe dancing alone in my living room, maybe cooking with an ex, maybe driving and smoking a cigarette like I used to - nonetheless even though I can’t remember, I remember all the lyrics, and every sweet sound, chord change, raw voice cracks and sweet emotion.
The way he plays guitar is absolutely incredible, such a unique playing style! Love this song💕
What i love about this performance is that how they're living in the moment and just enjoyed singing together.
The way the girl just breaks into a smile at 3:30 gives me chills. You just know they love what they do so much
mate, she fucks it up but its that beautiful you aint gonna notice.
She does this in a lot of these songs with ben. Shes adorable in ben howards cover of call me maybe.
This is definitely my favorite of his songs.
triforcepower73 try Follaton Wood, my fave BH tune
I think I’m obsessed with this song
Same!!!
12 years ago and it's still better than the pish i listen to today!
ben howard is so amazing it is such a privilege to hear and witness him play his music
the way ben howard plays his guitar is perfect.
Here in 11/2020 feeling just as moved by this song now as I was when I heard it in 2011 💖
he's as perfect as it gets
@@lylevaltz9307 I wholeheartedly agree! 💖
I made it! .Your a legend Ben, yourself and a couple of other musicians helped me get through the some dark times in the past 10 years. The song still cuts deep and sometimes I question if I am through the dark times. I’m sure time will tell.
Puts most modern music to shame. So much garbage out there today! We need more Ben Howards in the world!
+EQOAnostalgia Just listen to him and push the garbage aside. Solved! ;)
well said
chloé pelletier Yeah no shit, don't start an argument if your goal isn't to start a negative response smart ass.
+EQOAnostalgia 'most" how much music do you listen to? Obviously not enough.... lol
"most" what a selfish thing to say.
Brent Gibala Don't like reading other peoples opinions? Easy solution. Stay off the internet, and most certainly stay out of the youtube comment section. Talk about selfish LOL!
india bourne is also a talented player/musician. I notice ben shines when she accompanies them when playing
I was wondering who she is, thank you
My favorite tracks of Ben are Under the Same sun, Promise and Only Love. God i feel so blessed to know him!
Conrad? Blackflies? Big Black Car?
rajneek Singh big black car is Gregory Alan Isakov
Check out old pine and further away
My girlfriend told me to check this out and I'm glad she did. This is awesome!
Ben, you must tire of reading such things, but you truly are the greatest musician of all time.
Fucking talent right there
The moment when you find your new favorite artist, and you wish you could take the melodies everywhere you go? Yeeeeeah
Ben is the best I have ever seen...critiquing music for 4o years
I'm with you on that brother.
+Todd Davis Amazing!
good joke hehe
Someone WhoCares he's alright but you need to get out more,
Lmao, maybe it's your system. I'm on Pioneer digital 7.2 with special designed polk audio speakers to enhance guitar. This was when he started. And I do hear some pitch problems and vibrato is off at times but, so was Stings....I should know I have a Police bootleg...."who cares" I guess you did Lol...peace, aren't you dead yet? LOL
Can’t believe it’s been 12 years. Come back every now and again when I’m having a bad day and this always puts a smile on my face
Most underrated musician ...i love your music Ben...touches my soul everytime i hear your voice...
The only problem with Ben Howards music is when it stops !
If this is his debut album... I cant imagine how good his following albums are going to be.
Little did you know you had to wait for so much time to hear some new songs from him
@@robertsuciu7055 It's quality over quantity as we all prefer ;)
@@robertsuciu7055 Worth the wait in my opinion :)
If you are single and you are female from Nigeria and you love this song and Ben Howard music. We should get married 😍😍😍

agreed.... amazing in all aspects of the word!
Seen him live twice this year. It will blow your mind live.
Cappah in the UK I've heard him played in supermarkets and on TV so it's not like he's super low-key either
(During a really rough day) This brought me to tears for over an hour.
I have never listen to more relaxing but good beat music before in my life i just started listening and i and i love it when im stressed i just turn it on and i calm right down!!
The acoustic guitar is an incredible instrument. And Ben Howard is a legend.
18 years on. Jesus that flew. Who else is watching in 2028?
Not only is this man blessed with an amazing voice! he has the audacity to become a wizard with an acoustic guitar! some people just make you feel talent-less!

here for the thousandth time and im still blown away at how talented he is
with all the crap that is going on over the earth today there is still the odd moment of pure bliss to be found. Thanks Ben
this is most relatable today
I can't even strum a proper cord and he's taking this to a whole new level! Good god what a talented man.
this is simply a piece of art.
I can understand why you don't like it, but i love it. I like how original and raw it is.
one of the best songs i've ever heard live.
Been a fan for a LONG TIME! Please never ever stop making music. Your music literally inspires me to be a better person everyday. Thank you for sharing your amazing gift with the world. You re absolutely amazing.
After watching this, I bet in 10 years he'll be playing the guitar with the forces of his mind...
Not yet
Nah he's got sloppy
The way he plays that guitar is flaming amazing!! One of his best songs I think. Genius.
Love your spirit. Soul music, It uplifst me
