Makes me happy when people are discovering ben howard for the first time. Your life is now better
Brad I love this song and I just discovered Chanel
it is since I discovered his music. You are so right
Brad i discoverered him from life is strange
My life is SOOOO much better now. You are quite right : )
YEPPPP
dude the stuff he is singing about in this song, externally keeps me awake every night to this day. After discovering him 9 years ago, I had no clue his lyrical content existed in such a powerful way to help me nearly a decade after coming back then again I was 15 when i heard him for the first time. (and too inexperienced with relationships and life to understand and fathom this path he is talking about.) Promise, is specifically about the dread and fear of loneliness. And how the promises and touch from the loved ones around us are the fuel that Ben lets us know, its okay to need and admit.
When I'm sad this song takes me to the deepest of sadness. When I'm happy, to the highest clouds in the sky! Ben's music has the power of intensifying our feelings. Just perfect song!
If I were standing at the edge of the universe and about to plunge into the darkness beyond, this is what I’d want to be last sound in my ears.
A song I have come back to again and again, whenever I needed to. And sometimes even when I didn’t, but still came here.
This is truly “soul music”
I'm kinda sorry for saying that guys, but if you listened to this song, that's it, it just how far you can go. Music doesn't get any better than this.
Move back in time. Music was better in older days.
People became famous because of their skills and talent.
Nowadays just actors becomes singers.
Não subestime, Lucas.
Naw.....Ben only gets better with time, dude!

@@adityakumarsingh437 There are more fantastic artists out there than you'll ever have time to fully explore, you have to actually look
Never fails to make me cry.
Reminds me of him all the time. But it also reminds me that I need to stop focusing on who I am to other people. I need to fall back in love with myself first.
This is just a special song, you can just put it on and go to another place and forget about the world. Ben's music is just so important to me
Same here
Well said brother✌🏻
oisin kelly cheers to those who been here for endless feeling of this song I would call it everblue
oisin kelly couldn't of said it better myself..... It's always there for you when you need it. RIGHT at the rugby time. In the right place. Arrow straight into me. 💜 "And maybe, JUST maybe.... I'll come home." ❤.
feel the same
Such a beautiful song. I don't know why but it makes me think of my finance' that passed 12/25/16 of cancer at the age of 40. I promised her I would be there till the end, what ever end that would be to love and support her anyway I could. Miss her so much. Sometimes it feels good to be sad if that makes any sense; aside from the love it's the only connection left to the loved ones we've lost.
Andrew Helmich Oh, man, I’m so sorry :/ I’d love to have something to said that could comfort you, but I don’t know what...
Bless...forever
Remember the good times and love you shared.together
The last part if what you said ... shook my core... I'm sorry for your loss
✌
this is the most relaxing song I've ever experienced
❤❤❤no words can describe the feeling. i used to listed to this song when driving to my parents home after months of being away.
this is definitely one of my most favourite songs ever
ben and bon iver must collab
It's hard to explain what you feel when you're listening to this
Ben Howard is artist that I have respect to. And I'm listening his songs almost every day at the you tube because I don't wanna pirate his work. When I got money I will buy his albums because he deserve that.
This song was with me in my darkest hour and I cannot describe how grateful I am for that.
T
Remember: the darkest hour is always just before the dawn..
Has your darkest hour recovered?
What a masterpiece ... lyrics are so deep, engagement and promises are so hard to keep sometimes ...
This is the kind of song you listen somewhere and then you want to know who composed it in the hope that all of his work will be consistent with the quality of it. And then you search for it and you find out that it is. Then you thank god for making people like this possible. ^_^
Anyone listening again in 2020? I come back here every year on my bday ❤️😭
I’ve listened to it every day since I first heard it in Jan 2018 💗 Happy birthday! 🥳
@@sarahhelenoftroy6320 I do too! Happy belated birthday!
I’ve been listening to this track for 10 years now and it never loses it’s magic. Timeless art!
PROMISE…..🙏
Love
the life needs more silence, more thinking and confidence. thanks for this song...
I've driven many times down roads like these, in various magical conditions like fog, absolute darkness, beaming sunshine at dusk, snow... I play Ben Howard every time.
Something about this makes me feel completely calm and peaceful.
I think that if there were a heaven, It would have music so beautiful that you'd cry instantly and feel it at the very core of your soul.. I love Ben and His music. But I think in terms of heaven,what we would hear would be more than brilliant.
Clearly and definitively one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard. It invokes so much emotion. Absolutely masterful.
Hauntingly beautiful. Inspiring. Uplifting!
Honoured to have seen this man live twice. He and his crew are phenomenal artists
Silly boy, there's no zombies---just evil children lurking among the tall stalks. Didn't you see their eyes glowing?
The quality of this song makes up for the quality of the video. Ben Howard=Genius
Years later, and I'm still inlove with this song. Thank you for this, Ben Howard. 😌✨💫
Still here, listening 😌✨
✨💫💖
This reminds me of many years of driving late at night on holiday in Cornwall.
I thought i was the only one crazy about this track. Its a song beyond beyond..started listening to this back in 2018 and 5 years later im still reversing it again and again..
Same here mate. I find it hard that Ben has moved to other genres. Always thought his early songs were so pure...
And meet me there, with bundles of flowers
We'll wade through the hours of cold winter
She'll howl at the walls
Tearing down doors of time
Shelter as we go
And promise me this
You'll wait for me only
Scared of the lonely arms
That surface, far below these birds
Maybe, just maybe i'll come home
Who am i, darling to you?
Who am i
To tell you stories of mine?
Who am i?
Who am i, darling for you?
Who am i
To be your burden in time? Lonely
Who am i, to you?
Who am i, darling for you?
Who am i?
To be your burden
Who am i, darling to you?
Who am i?
I come alone here
I come alone here
😍
Its far below these burns. Looks like one lyrics is being copied everywhere. and that typo gets copied everywhere. LMAO.
I dream of one day walking down the aisle listening to this song. Best song ever created. Brings me inner peace. I have found it years and years ago and will always come back to it…
Beautiful beyond words, heart-touchingly beautiful. Yes, Alchemic Overdrive, we're all one.
where have I been? i just discovered him and he's brilliant artist. i don't think i heard promise before but listening to it, i feel warmth and nostalgia
If u like Ben Check out Jose Gonzalez too!
I drive this road twice a week and every time i do this song plays in my head!
Not kidding. I first heard this song on the german version of "I'm a celeb get me outta here". In a very very dark time of my life. After all these years it still gives me warmth.
Fucking love this song, Fucking love Ben, Fucking love music, I fucking love life and being alive! and I fucking love all of you!! We are all connected!
so fucking deep
.. but I got your point
Fuck yeah!
We really are

"Just maybe i'll come home.....Who am I darling to you, who am I to tell you stories of mine?" That always gives me goosebumps.
I am desperately home sick... I love this video :) Now I'm going to have a little cry.
The simplicity of this track is what makes it so aesthetic!
His soothing voice always calms me down and grounds me. He does so much good to my soul.
Thanks Ben Howard, this song always gives birth to a new thought that teaches me a lot, I just know that listening to it I feel peace.
It's the simpler memories that are harder to forget. The first time I listened to this song, it was just another winter night, but I haven't been the same ever since then.
I have no idea how I got here. I closed my eyes, clicked a few times and bam, Ben Howard.
"The 100" brought me here. Ben Howard will keep me here. I'm off to buy the album to support him...beautiful song, such a sweet voice. Come and play in San Francisco, please.
It took such a long time until i found the song from the scene from "the 100" . I found it !!
Everytime I listen to this I'm feel like I'm in the wild and fireflies everywhere guiding me in the cold air.
I just want to live in this song forever.
Ben Howard's music videos are so unique...they're simplistic, full of movement, deeply hypnotic. They do not cater to our shifty attention spans. Just when you start sinking into the film and losing track of time, everything changes, and you're watching something different, but somehow the same. Ingenius. I love everything about him.
Just ordered my deluxe 2 disc + DVD edition of his album. I could listen to his music all day. It makes me feel at peace with everything. I think everybody in the world ought to listen to one of his tracks, maybe there'd be less crap going on if they did!
First song of his I ever heard. Have been well and truly hooked for nine/ten months. Ben and Cosmo Jarvis, Devon is awesome
"And maybe, JUST maybe.... I'll come home." ❤.
When I heard this song the first time I kept searching for the meaning. I forgot to look at the song for how it made me feel. Safe....comfortable...finally a place I could be. Thank you
i'm still coming back here from time to time. i dunno why
Some years ago, I used to work overnight and I wouldn't get out till 7am. I would then drive to pick up my gf and I would listen to this song on a daily basis! Now listening to it years later... it's like a time machine. The feels return. The girlfriend is no more and all I have is lingering memories of someone I once knew.
After all the amazing releases since this, it remains my favourite Ben Howard track of all time.
2018 anyone??? Still an amazing song and deserves more views!
‘If I stay’ brought me here 💙
I have never saw him live but when I watch his videos I feel like I have. cannot wait to feel this live !
+DCFCREJ When are you going to see him?
My 1 year old has had this song sung to her every night before she sleeps, I'm not the best dad in the world but I try.
Such a beautiful song, I keep coming back to it again and again. I always think of the small Ohio county I grew up in, driving at night... Each time I see this I wonder where this was filmed. I once heard it was filmed during his driving back one night from a studio that Ben Howard had out in the countryside. Has anyone else heard that? Anyone know what town he ends up in?
I’ve listened to this song a thousand times but now it has taken on a whole other meaning.
2019 peopls! Ben is the most amazing human being 💘
I’m listening this at 03:24, what a coincidence huh? loving you Ben.
one of the greatest groups of notes ever connected to open a gateway into the human soul
Second time I've listened to this, I remember where I was, what I was doing and how I felt the first time I heard it over 2 years ago now.....mad how things and people change
Lubble-1397 omg i do that too
Bella Nine thats good :) any other good songs?
when i listen to this song i'm in an attic next to the one i loved looking at the rain draining down the windows, cherish these moments people, they are scarce and short lived
this song represents a turning point in my life, the sound of depths, something so mystical about it. thank you!!!!
what a song just pure brilliant. great melody.
Just heard this for the first time on House and loved it
So do I... Season 8 Episode 12.
Hands down one of my favourite artists 😊
Thumbs up if loving Ben Howard brought you here.
2011? Time flies... people come and go.
I could listen to this song forever. he's a true talent.
The imperfections on this track,,,,
Ben Howard.. You are a musical genius. So grateful that somehow in life everything worked exactly as it did so you could share your talent with the world. Some of your music has helped me through some of the darkest times over the last few years. No longer dark at this moment.. but still come back to remind me of a part of myself I so often seem to lose, and always find again when I hear your music.
Has anyone else felt the music and the road/trip are in sync? They are in same note and rhythm.
Original and Masterpiece
My erratic and eclectic musical wanderings on youtube made me came here and also a love that seems hopeless ... But on which I will not give up ...
tilkince it's been seven years since this comment, what ever happened to your seemingly hopeless love?
I am hugging my speakers...
this song gives me hope
This is so beautiful. 💜💜
Whenever I wanna listen to Him, I always streamed on UA-cam, that's the least I can as My respect to Him😊
This song keep me calm. Awesome!
Last winter I went through a really tough emotional phase contemplating my life and reflecting my past, a relationship, regrets, timing, compromises, missed opportunities and all my mistakes. Gaining weight as I recovered from an excruciatingly painful injury, I would have frequent times where I'd think of not waking up from the next morning onward. I bought an acoustic guitar and kept trying to pick it up just for my own sake and learn some sings I loved, not to perform for others, just for myself. One of those days I came across this song, End of the Affair and Old pine and woke up the next day with more hope and some warmth that was missing like a pencil for an empty notebook.
Hang in there
Anubhav Joshi Beautiful words man and I relate to everything you said. The longest year of my life from last summer to now. There's something about this song that puts it all on the table in front of you and just gives you a look at all of it. I hope you're doing better. 🧡
I keep crying and listening to his songs tonight, I don't think I've changed much from my 12 year old self
Glad to find your Promise after It's 10 years of publication.
I’m having a rough day then i listen to this it got so better
Why is his music so underrated? This needs so much more attention than the crap people listen to now days!
🤷♂️
Is it bad that I can't help but wait for something to jump out into the road while watching this?
I can't sleep unless this is playing.
Thanks for the music....beautiful
oceanfest here we come, cant wait ,this is pure bliss
i could stare at this video while the song plays for hours.
House MD,The 100,New Amsterdam got me here.Anyway who is listing this in 2019?
I fell #downtherabbithole! Started with T Pain, then Dermot Kennedy, then Lewis Capaldi, and now Ben Howard. ☺️
Brothers and sister of Christ we must all come together and devote our lives to the Lord so that he who dies on the cross to pay for our own sins can live eternal life by his side. There will come a day where the trumpets sound and this Earth will be distroyed. Those of who have lived a Godly life will go to heaven and those who have not will suffer in torment by the eternal flames. Allow our father to come into your hearts now before it is too late. It is his grace, love and mercy on us sinners that allows us this opportunity.
My boyfriend just broke up with me and I can't stop crying, but this song makes me feel loved, thank you so much Ben!
Du Pham i hope you are better now *hugs*
Hope u r doing better now
best music of the world
Isn't it?
Traveled this dark highway❤With the light touch of your hand on mine.
Listening for the first time... felt in love 😍
Oh joder está es la canción más relajante que he oído en años!! La verdad que el cantante Ben tiene una voz que enamora a muchas y la letra de sus canciones hacen reflexionar demasiado sobre todo, sobre como somos con los demás y con nosotros mismos...
There is this girl i know and i hurt her really bad because i've been in a bad state of mind for almost 4 years now. Everytime someone good comes along, all i see is the hurt of when my first relation ended and i start building another wall arround my feelings.
A few days ago i asked this girl if she could give me a second chance. She told me it's to soon for her to forgive me for ignoring her and making her feel like she is not worth it. But we had the promise that even if we no longer talked to each other, we would meet up again in February and go on our dream holliday. So i hope these next few months go by really soon and in february i'll go over there and hope i get me second chance and my chance to be happy with this amazing girl 🙏🏼
gianni r God bless you both! :)
How did it go? Hope you guys are both happy
Love Love Love Ben Howard. His music brings me so much joy.
I've driven this road so many times... it's never sounded so good.... :)
