Radical Face - Under The Same Sun
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- This is the final song for this first "Hidden Hollow" EP. For those of you that don't know what that means, "Hidden Hollow" is the name of my monthly newsletter, where I include all these one-off recordings that I've been making, as well as share lots of book, art and media recommendations. You can sign up for the newsletter here, if that sounds interesting to you: www.hiddehollow.online
And to be totally clear, none of these tracks are related to my new album. That is a much larger project, which will begin this year. I'll make a video explaining it all, because I never do anything simple and the record has spiraled into a 30 song multi-media project. Ha.
As for this track, this one is a throwback of sorts. It's a riff on another song of mine (guess which?). The chord/picking pattern was originally something for the Family Tree project, but I never used it. The chords popped up out of the blue last month, so I just rolled with them, started tracking, and this is where I wound up. This whole "Hidden Hollow" series has been about not overthinking anything very much and finishing songs quickly. To be honest, I prefer overthinking -- I love details -- but I have appreciated the change of pace.
Side note: I plan to do a short "Missing Film" EP for the space between this EP and my next record, so the next batch of songs will likely be instrumentals that anyone can use.
Lyrics:
Stopped time, the time has stopped
And all the earth stands still
All our plans are just feathers in the breeze
I fall asleep in the backseat of your old car
Outside the gods fall to their knees
When I said I'd live a life that was a different one
I meant a different one
Not always picking up the pieces of a former one
I thought I'd find a different world under a different sun
But there's no different sun
Yeah, there is only one
So now I sit in silence as it warms my skin
And I don't need to plan
Or even know where we are
Because it's all the same sun
I'm looking out the window at a different road
Is it a different road?
If I always take it with me and don't let it go?
I need to let it go
Until I let it go it makes every road I travel down the same
This might all feel like we're stumbling in the dark
But it's all under the same sun
The whole thing about Radical Face is it’s all like you feel your heart singing on a spring day.
THE BEST PRESENT FOR MY BIRTHDAY ON MY LIFE!
Happy birthday!
@@jonathans5806 thank you ^^
happy birthday 🎉
Happy Birthday!
HAPPY BDAY 💓💘💕💞💕💞💓💞💕💞💕💞
My whole life, I've always associated music with colors. As soon as I clicked on this song, my mind filled with the buttery yellows of sunbeams. :)
That's awesome!
Synesthesia! Cool!
@@BenHoselton I'm not sure if it's synesthesia, exactly; more like an overly active imagination? I dunno, I daydream super vividly, and music makes it even more vivid. So I listen to songs like this and wind up imagining all kinds of colors, textures, sensations, places, and stories. Although, the colors that pop into my head are rather arbitrary, I suppose--I don't decide what color a song is, it just automatically seems to have one (often more colors and textures emerge as I listen to a song more times). Either way, I'm glad you think it's cool!
@@BenHoselton Oh, dang, it *is* synesthesia-
@@EmotionalSupportBees lol. I mean, you don't have to give it a name if you don't want to... just sounded like it to me. Still cool, either way. Hopefully, it's a mostly pleasant effect.
Hello from Russia. Wonderful song. Thank you, bro.
"This might all feel like we're stumbling in the dark
But it's all under the same sun"
AMAZING
I really enjoy radical face music, so underrated but such a hidden treasure.
After walking my dog in the Colorado sunshine, I see this and it reminds me of a place I used to go as a kid in Arkansas. All the same sun. Thanks for sharing your art!
Кто знает русский давайте поставим лайки и прокомментим, пусть думают что мы о чем-то серьезном общаемся! 😁 А вообще у Radical Face'а крутые песни, сам кайфую !)
а еще мнжоо псаить так чбтоы нлезья блыо прееветси первеодчоким. весм првеит, мызука клсса!
Wow, finally some good music to listen to.
Thank you Ben.
I'm Brazilian, And I can't live without listening to your music !!! I love music 'Welcome Home *
Love, love, love!
Thank you so much! Life has been so stressful lately, but your music truly is a breath of fresh hair, a shoulder to cry on, a warm blanket to wrap around yourself ❤
Ben Cooper you write some amazing music! Additionally, Radical Face is one of the best live shows I have been to! Your efforts are appreciated and enjoyed by many. Thank you for writing, playing, and performing.
Thank you. :)
YESSSS i've been missing your music so happy to hear your wonderful songs and see your great art again!!
Ty Ben.. needed this so much.. I’m never gonna leave your music.. it’s the only reliable thing in my life right now ❤️
Pizza is also pretty reliable.
@@RadicalFace Yeah, pizza is pretty reliable
@@RadicalFace pizza and radical face, the two things i can always look forward to
The past few songs had been absolutely amazing-- so many things have been rough recently, doubly so thanks to the other many things, but these songs reminds me to reset my perspective and stop zooming into just the way everything is falling apart. "I thought I'd find a different world under a different sun/
But there's no different sun" really hits home... Longing for a complete break from what was and is can be almost a fixation, like finding that magical place where the past just doesn't have to exist anymore, but it's still... We're still the person who went through all that. It won't go away. Doesn't have to completely forget it to accept and let it go, though... I guess that's what they call radical acceptance?
I don't know. Your songs just have brought me immeasurable comfort over the past few years and is literally the only thing I can listen to without accidentally attaching memories of horrible events to and become triggers in 2 months' time. With the way I keep needing to discard things important to me in the past just because they've all become triggers, if I could eat these songs, I would.
Thanks for the music as always Ben
I must have missed a notification for this, but this made for a nice new Birthday month jam.
Thanks for constantly killing it!
I miss electric president. I know my feelings are irrelevant, but if Kane is still on Earth, and you two could connect, it would be incredible to hear what y'all could make.
Love♥️🥳🙏. Please.
radical face our hidden treasure
Proudly adding a second Under The Same Sun to my library, by a second Ben!
Beautiful song Ben! Reminds me of the your songs that I started listening to years ago
Your musics are so peaceful, Ben. I always listen to your music when I'm working alone.
I found you through Summer Skeleton about a year ago.
This song actually sounds like a sunny day.
I get some Electric President vibes out of it. Thx Ben, you're an inspiration for me
amazing artist, very inspirational ❤
😊😊
I'd love to learn this on guitar. Great song Ben!
beautiful
it really ressonated with how my heart feels right now
thank you!
You are becoming one of my favorite bands. Discovered you through the mute and am going through your catalog.
This is refreshing!! Thanks!!
Woooow everytime better, thank you Ben with ❤️
No hay nada mejor que estudiar tranquilo mientras escucho a Radical Face
Goosebumps every time! Amazing voice! ❤
Find your music it's the best thing in my life.
UA-cam hid you from me for about a year and then randomly shows you again. You're still making amazing music my guy. Still hits me right in the feels.
Thank you .. a little escapism from the lockdown
Thank you Ben for the early birthday present 😘
All our plans are just feathers in the breeze.•°`🍂
This is old school textbook Radical Face. like Ghost and the Family Tree albums. Love it!
Yeah, I even recorded it my old way ... use one mic for everything as much as possible.
@@RadicalFace Thanks for all the great music. Been listening to you since i was 16 and im 25 now. Keep making gold.
cannot stop admiring your talent😯as usual, it's wonderful! Every song you make is a pearl. I've been listening to your songs for 5 or 6 years now, and your music has been inspiring me since then. I am a devoted Russian fan of your work:) And thanks a lot for your monthly letters! They make me feel we are in a kind of a dialogue, as if we are penpals, although distant, but in some way very close. I wish you all the best!
Most underrated artist
Always get excited when I see you post a new song, never disappoints, keep being you Ben. ❤️
NEW RADICAL FACE JUST DROPPED
Another awesome bop. Thank you 😁
Did you miss 11 years ago?
How do you continually make such unusually beautiful music?
Ben OP. But plz no nerf.
Hahaha.
Привет из России от маленького клуба адептов творчества radical face еще с рекламы Nicon - welcome home, жду с друзьями каждый трек, обожаю, спасибо за творчество!
It's very wonderfull, Ben thank you!
Nice work man
I thought it was a cover of Ben Howards', but it is even better that it is not and now I have 2 songs and 2 artist that have the same names and I love them both 🥰
gracias Ben! always gold😋
Thanks a lot for making these beautiful songs!!! I need them so so much right now....
Best one yet! I personally like door or sign versions of the art better because it gives a feeling of discovery, but I get that you're trying not to overthink things. Anyways, love the song and art. Can't wait for the album!
I just realized with the doors, I had nowhere to write the text that would look okay.
@@RadicalFace Ah I see, It's so cool that you comment!
your voice is a whole feeling
Wow the Pound of Flesh callbacks are astounding and I absolutely adore it ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful song. I always get such a nice calm feeling when listening to your music. Thank you! I'm gonna go check out the newsletter! :)
Absolutely wonderful, great job Ben! I love the illustrations as well, very pretty
Hi, Ben! How often does your newsletters come out? I remember joining the email list but I don’t believe I get your emails.
Anw, still love your tunes!
Hey John! The Hidden Hollow Newsletter comes out the first Tuesday of every month:) Sometimes its in your Spam, that happened to me the first issue.
@@rachelcragg3132 Cool! Thanks! :)
Yayy new songg 🥰
Amazing song!! Your music never fails to help me feel peaceful; it's got me through some pretty tough times! So glad you're continuing to make music! :)
Thank you Ben. I mean it. You always manage to put a smile on my face with your music.
I was about to sing "My feet plow on..." lol!! I love this!
Another beautiful song from the best singer in the world
I’m so glad you talked about the callback in the description, because catching the snare pattern from the ship in port outro made my heart light up (assuming I caught it right) 🥰 I love the interconnectedness of your work, every song contributes to this whole world of music, and it’s so creatively rich! I can’t wait for your new project ❤️
Amazing song love it
Welcome home, minha preferida 😍
So great song❤️...love from india❤️❤️
"Until I let it go it makes every road I travel down the same" - I simply love this line and the idea behind it. I love how you can speak so beautifully about things that all people on earth can relate to. Whenever I listen to your songs, they bring me this feeling of peace and harmony which we all need so much these days.
wow...chills
Love this

Thank you Ben! Love from India🇮🇳❤
I hope he comes to India someday... I will go to the concert no matter where it happens☺

Thank you Ben 💜💜
i st with you in the silence of creation thanx you are the art of love the space is working you love from denver
Fan for life. Thanks, Ben.
In a country that's been in lockdown for months with no discernible end, this somehow brings about a sensory overload of all the unappreciated sights, sounds, smells and sensations we're missing, but in a hopeful way. Someday soon, we'll be road tripping with friends through sprawling countryside on our way to music festivals, with our hands out of the passenger side window, catching waves in the breeze.
Your music is art
In the world of shit artists who don't know meaning of song, radical face is blessing to ears
what a way to make this gloomy day miles better. I love your music so much, thank you for everything you make.
I like your music videos with drawing progress. They just make me happy.
Oh my God, I love you 😍
FANTASTIC! I'M A BRAZILIAN FAN!
Nice one Ben!
you best!)
magnificent!
What is the song mentioned in the description? The drum beat throws me to another song but I can never get it before this song kicks in!
It was a chord progression in relation to "A Pound of Flesh."
@@RadicalFace Amazing, thank you!
Been listening to the EP on repeat for a couple hours now, while reading, and it's so beautiful and calming. Thank you for consistently releasing such amazing music into the world!
Gracias Ben, Gracias!
Love Your Art Work also💗❤️💗❤️💗❤️💗❤️💗❤️
the saddest part is when the song ends, thanks for this work, ben. I missed you on UA-cam. A few weeks ago I sent you a letter to your email, I hope some of you can read it❤
Sounds great!!
Maravilla, gracias 🙌
Can't help but feel like I've been in this place before
