Okay. How the hell is he making a live song sound like some heavily-produced, amazing track with just a guitar?! This defies nature in the best way possible...
Ben is my favourite musician for years already but I still keep accidentally finding new songs of him. And every single one is better than all the ones I have known before. How can that even be possible?! I hope to see him perform live one day!

used to this to listen on loop in comm tech class while editing photos for an hour straight, will always be a timeless classic. 9 years of listening, love
This is by far, one of my absolute favorite tracks. It gets me every time and I can listen to it on a daily basis. Ben, thank YOU for being so wonderful x
I thought I had heard every recorded performance of his ever made and then I found this. Glad I found it but it makes me worry that I still haven't seen all of his stuff.
Thank you! Third different video and best audio of this! Must be the "buzz" now finally about Ben Howard. Ben is so good, he can sell out and we all will be fine. Please spread the word about Ben Howard so he will play a venue near me! And you! Peace&Love
so, does anyone know why this master piece was never recorded? I was hoping to find it on the new record, which i think is wondeful, but Keiko is missing...
Love how he makes one accoustic guitar sound like a studio full of instruments. He's not the only artist who plays like this but I haven't heard someone do it better than Ben.
@Duncan Graham their was an article floating around that he may have had a girlfriend who took her life and this song is possible about her ? along with other songs especially falltoan woods, the opening to keiko definitely supports this i think
+dbacon272able He said that is not true in this interview www.standard.co.uk/lifestyle/esmagazine/ben-howard-the-more-attention-i-got-the-less-i-wanted-it-9696858.html
This reply may be 6 years late but at least you get to see this video again! Ben had broken a bone in his hand while surfing, he taped it during live shows for a few months after to provide some support for the healing bones!
Who's listening in 2024? ❤
Never understood why this song was never released on any of his albums. This might be the best song he made, and I think that says a lot.
It's crazy to think that he probably has so many other songs like this written that he just doesn't play for various reasons.

Tears me out every time ! No matter who is reading this, keep going my friend. You gonna make it
you can see the emotions and the pain in his face, when he finishes the song. He tries to hide but you can see what this song means to him.
just to let everyone know, we have found the studio recording of this wonderful song. it’s been 9 years friends and we found it !!!
yessss! love you for that info
Where please? :)
@@cnat4 I believe it’s on UA-cam somewhere if you search studio version
They Took it down :/

Anyone listening in 2019?!
This shit is just too fucking good. Too bad we dont got a studio version
2020
@@VasariFilms this will do man most of his live versions are better than his studio ones. Take "depth over distance" for an example.
2020.
2020 baby
This song has never been published on any of his albums. Or even released. Why its class 💯💯
used to this to listen on loop in comm tech class while editing photos for an hour straight, will always be a timeless classic. 9 years of listening, love
This is by far, one of my absolute favorite tracks. It gets me every time and I can listen to it on a daily basis. Ben, thank YOU for being so wonderful x
How this didn’t make the deluxe album will always be a mystery to me. Beautiful song.
Gosh there’s no high quality of this song and I need it for my lonely trips 🥺😭😭
Still best song Ben’s ever written and he never released it
Ben please just go to studio and record it cause I am tired to open youtube for it almost every week last five years.
I thought I had heard every recorded performance of his ever made and then I found this. Glad I found it but it makes me worry that I still haven't seen all of his stuff.
You should check it out! He has plenty of covers and hidden tracks that are simply amazing !!!
2021....still on my fave playlist...
2023…still can’t stop watching it….It’s been 10years already 🥲
omg i love him AND THIS AMAZING SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Howard revealed that he’d been playing with a broken bone in his hand all evening, having injured himself at the first weekend of Coachella festival"
This is just perfect!
Shtil the best version
His music is beautiful ! Soooo talented !
One of the best no doubt
Thank you! Third different video and best audio of this! Must be the "buzz" now finally about Ben Howard. Ben is so good, he can sell out and we all will be fine. Please spread the word about Ben Howard so he will play a venue near me! And you! Peace&Love
Best non released song by farrr
This guy is a genius. 😃
I feel so good.I love this song.Hahaha. 景子-Keiko- "view" and"child".
Gorgeous song, great performance!
So underrated 🔥
so, does anyone know why this master piece was never recorded? I was hoping to find it on the new record, which i think is wondeful, but Keiko is missing...
He said once, that recording the tapping songs is not so easy and sounds awful - maybe that's the reason...
Ben told someone thay he had a pretty good studio version of Keiko recorded already :(
Kyle Cullen he needs to record it!! its awesome
Super late reply, but I know he leaves out a lot of songs that are too personal!
They apload the studio version ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
Amazing as usual
Incredible
Love how he makes one accoustic guitar sound like a studio full of instruments. He's not the only artist who plays like this but I haven't heard someone do it better than Ben.
Love this!!
Ben Howard - White Lights, new music, listen its amazing
Yea that white lights is a banging song
amazing!
2021 x
Didn’t Peter Gabriel do this song originally!?!
MY HEART IS MELTING @ 1.23 :-)
Amazing
@Duncan Graham their was an article floating around that he may have had a girlfriend who took her life and this song is possible about her ? along with other songs especially falltoan woods, the opening to keiko definitely supports this i think
yes share with us if you have not done it so far yet....:))) this one is great!
keiko was also the name of the orca that played free willy...
but I think ben was going for the japanese meaning ;)
whats the meaning ?
xSyze google says lucky / blessed child, respectful child :)
dbacon272able yes think of the song 'gracious' and 'keep your head up'. it is possible?
Follaton woods
+dbacon272able He said that is not true in this interview www.standard.co.uk/lifestyle/esmagazine/ben-howard-the-more-attention-i-got-the-less-i-wanted-it-9696858.html
In 2020 i wanna this song in album
Eugene Prokopenko crossing my fingers
It's a girls name like colakeks1 said, and I think i've heard it means "blessed child" or something like that. Sorry for the bad english... :)
listen to me happy
god.
has he changed the lyrics? in this version he says "some kind of forest fire", but in other versions i hear, "to see my father"...
Yes.
It means Blessed Child or Lucky One.
haha what a legend.
anyone know what that thing he sticks on the guitar is around 0:40
It's sound-hole block, you put it in the sound-hole to reduce feedback when you play on stage
Frederik Thougaard Jørgensen so it doesn't feedback too loud and start blaring. i think like u kno when you slap a mic and its starts blaring
wow
is that just tape on his left hand? does anybody know if it serves any purpose as far as creating a special sound?
Eric Sirvid Ben had a broken hand that year
2.30 eargasm
keiko means blessed child i think!
Does anyone know if this is about Keiko the orca?
It'd make a lot of sense, since Ben is a lover of the ocean and it also makes sense in relation to kiekos story
With what the lyrics mention; it's hard to believe it's about an Orca. Simply just doesn't fit... Sorry!
+jeem chucho it does actually if you read up on kiekos story.
if you mean the tape - he broke a bone in his hand in April
Can someone tell me the joke at the beginning? I don't understand every well what he says :(
+Ana Martinez He says "John Smith special, That's what it's called"
***** Oh that's it! :P Thanks!
2021
it was also the name of the whale that played Shamoo
what's up with his hand? Is that normal for that kind of playing the guitar? :D Sorry, I don't know anything about that ^^
This reply may be 6 years late but at least you get to see this video again! Ben had broken a bone in his hand while surfing, he taped it during live shows for a few months after to provide some support for the healing bones!
why is he using tape?
actually he did break his hand
Anyone can tell me why he always has duck tape on his hand ?!
he broke his hand in April...
+Sudipa Berlin WHAT!?!?!?! NO!!!!!! Awe i feel bad for him
that was two years ago - it should be okay now ;)
its about his old girlfriend, i heard.. can relate to this cus been trough the same thing in my family
Keiko is a japanese name for girls.
Keiko- Japanese for lucky or blessed child
Keiko can mean bless child ;)
ouch :( lucky he can still play :D
Ben's messy hair :)
He broke his hand
1:30
Hahaha he didnt break his hand. Look up on some professional guitarists. they wear tape aswell and I seriously doubt they all have broken hands.
New from Ben: -White lights -keiko-i forget where we were- ocean
Old love at the start of the clip, John Martin!?!?!??????
As if you don’t know who the fuck John Martyn is!!!!
Makes me think of a long lost love
