i’m screaming because the book community has been begging for ben barnes to re-record the audiobooks but an asmr reading????????? what a time to be ✨alive✨
I'm sorry to ask - this might be me just "nit picking" - but has he recorded these books before? I see no sign of it. He has done many other audiobooks, and even a graphic novel audiobook (odd combination!) of Shadow & Bone which is only an hour long and has a full cast, but that's all. So, when you say "re-record", am I just struggling to find them? If so, could you send me a link where I can buy them, please? If he *hasn't* read the books, then it isn't "re-record", it's just "record"; hence the confusion. Thanks in-advance.
Or when one of the interviews mentioned Reddit and he said he had no clue what that was and then the next day he was on Reddit asking questions 😭 he acts like such an old man I adore him
Боже, вот знакомые мне девчонки мечтают о том чтобы очутиться с Беном в одной постели, а я мечтаю о том чтобы Бен читал мне перед сном ❤❤❤ 😂 ну что за мужчина... 😊
I remember falling in love with him while watching Narnia when I was 10 Almost 15 years later - well, nothing has changed 😭 He’s as captivating as ever Being older suits him so much
I watch ASMR every night, I don't listen to asmr by men because for some reason it just doesn't hit the same. BUT WHEN BEN BARNES DOES ASMR YOU LISTEN TO IT AND OF COURSE IT HITS.
He already does! He narrated the entirety of The Picture of Dorian Gray, half of The Lives of Saints and a part of Demon in the Wood. His voice in the audiobooks is really soothing.
Makes me wonder if Ben was already familiar with ASMR when he did this. It seems to come naturally to him! More Ben Barnes content like this, please! 👏
I remember the first times when we Grishaverse fandom unofficially chose Ben Barnes as The Darkling, and now we have him reading the book for us! I still can't believe how far we come guys!
The fact that ben barnes in the asmr sounds exactly like darkling in the books. In the books the darkling had a stern cold and pleasant voice everytime which makes the chill run through the listener's spine.
I'm an ASMR fan and I'm really impressed by the hidden talent of Ben Barnes. His voice is enveloping and I lent myself to the game. He managed to completely relax me... I enjoyed his performance 😍👌 
Yes, you must catch-up. I would suggest a specific movie to begin with, but I can't choose. Here's a few I've seen with him in it and I'm sure I will miss a few lol .... Stardust, Dorian Grey, Narnia (there's 2 of them he was in), Seventh Son & The Big Wedding.
I need the entire book series read like this. Either the entire cast or just Ben Barnes. Please! Who else agrees? Audiobooks are good. But asmr audio with video are just next level. Thank you Ben Barnes (for the sneak peek?)!
My first language is not English, so I always watch the show in translation. But I always switch Ben's scenes to the original so I can hear his voice and intonation. They are fascinating.
I kept giggling the entire time, I just couldn't (& still can't) take this seriously 🤣 There were bits where it got quite sexy, but then it got ridiculous again with all the book-stroking, water-pouring, beard-caressing actions 🤣 Oh Ben is just so pure & hilarious! ❤
Is it normal that I have played this video too many times? I could listen to it all day and never get tired. i need more ben barnes asmr content i am addicted to his voice
soft spoken and Ban Barnes just fit perfectly together, the whisperes were good but man the vibration of his soft spoken voice is something else entirely
Agreed on the bible thing,because I was literally only listening to the sound of his voice without paying attention to a single word of what he said 😂😂
As an serious enjoyer of asmr I actually got tingles from this his voice is perfect for this!! And I know people rave over light colored eyes but to me eyes like his are truly so beautiful!!!
Nah this is General Kirigan ASMR Book Read, The way he was talking through his teeth with intensity before even reading the book and the mannerisms, he was in full Darkling Mode!
I don't watch the Show or know the books but but I swear I would listen to this man reading me to sleep and if it would just be the sport part of the newspaper
they knew exactly what they were doing with this
Yes! Now we need more!
I have no idea what I was done to but I like it 😮💨
@@rubbish6584 😂
This should be classified as sensory warfare,manipulation or something. I’m here for it though.
fr
the person that suggested ben barnes make a five minute asmr video needs a raise
Just make that person CEO of Netflix, I trust them with the entire platform.
Then they need to be fired for not making it 5 hours. Lol

Okay but I need that!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽

He's pouring water for all the thirsty fans in the comments
@@IllisiaAdams I think they mean to re-record the audiobooks with Ben as the narrator, instead of Lauren Fortgang.
the WAY he stares into the camera I'm trying hard not to start hysterically crying this is so good
This suddenly turned into the steamiest audiobook ever😂
Indeed
Fr 😭
FR
You ladies and your smut 🤭
Omg yes 😂😂😂😂
I just know Ben Barnes was so confused by this in the most adorable way when they asked him to do this.
Yes! 😂😂😂😂
Or when one of the interviews mentioned Reddit and he said he had no clue what that was and then the next day he was on Reddit asking questions 😭 he acts like such an old man I adore him
True😂😂
I don’t know… he did it too well to be an ASMR newbie in my opinion
No, Ben gets it. He's well suited for ASMR content.
Ben Barnes needs to narrate every book I read from this day forward. Holy crap his voice is perfection.
There's many options on Audible! Including a reading of Dorian Grey, which of course he starred in a feature film adaptation of so that's quite cool.
Ben: “It typically refers to the tingly feeling that travels from the head…downward”
Me: I am listening…respectfully.
Боже, вот знакомые мне девчонки мечтают о том чтобы очутиться с Беном в одной постели, а я мечтаю о том чтобы Бен читал мне перед сном ❤❤❤ 😂 ну что за мужчина... 😊
Totally 😂
I swear that man could be reading a phone book, and I would still listen.
this should be illegal. i would pay for this subscription service. this gave me the giggles yet calmed me so much at the same time.
Same
Exactly. Well said! I was giggling like a little girl and at the same time found it VERY relaxing.
@@sunshynea5151 same
I almost fell asleep in 4 minutes
I was smiling to myself and listened to it in repeat 😅😊
His English accent, deep voice and the way he articulates every syllable though makes it really enjoyable and ear-pleasing!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This man is so attached to his character, that he brings Alexander's reactions when he reads his acts.
Amazing!
Ben Barnes sure has that irresistable charm and charisma. Bless him.
Can we still calm heed at tea?
Yes
Big Leo energy
could’ve just said rizz
@@bwxtdo9180 no rizz aint enough to describe his beauty
Mmm... Can we please have all books read by Ben in ASMR style?
Yes please!
My dream
YES❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂
I would pay good money for this
Yes pleaseeeee
I remember falling in love with him while watching Narnia when I was 10
Almost 15 years later - well, nothing has changed 😭 He’s as captivating as ever
Being older suits him so much
He's so handsome I just can't 😭😭 control myself
i love just how seriously he took this. definetely gave me tingles
I watch ASMR every night, I don't listen to asmr by men because for some reason it just doesn't hit the same. BUT WHEN BEN BARNES DOES ASMR YOU LISTEN TO IT AND OF COURSE IT HITS.
Apparently he’s talented at everything including asmr reading 😂
Recommended:penn badgley
ooh same!
Same! Men’s voice are too deep to induce a sense of calmness.
@@Alexis_005 For me it's not the tone but most tend to be rough and loud instead of calming 😭🤧
Not usually an ASMR person, but this? Yes 😳
Whoever pitched this idea needs a raise
Same and Agreed
He did better than a lot of professional asmrtist
This is the tingliest ASMR I've ever watched. His voice is naturally deep and seductive but this soft spoken/whispery voice is EVEN BETTER 🥴
Ben should definitely do reading for audiobooks. My lordt 😂😂 this was so good❤❤❤
He already does! He narrated the entirety of The Picture of Dorian Gray, half of The Lives of Saints and a part of Demon in the Wood. His voice in the audiobooks is really soothing.
@@TaurielTheElf Do you know where I can find these audiobooks? Do I have to purchase online? Thank you 😍
@@blackandpurpledreamss you can purchase them on audible
@sieliegtmeininarmen yeah there are many options out there, for instance Apple Books, Libby, or audible.
I thought the same thing! Now on to find those audiobooks! He should totaly narrate more audiobooks!
The only terrible thing is that it's not long enough :') But I appreciate whoever suggested the idea for Ben to do this!
Makes me wonder if Ben was already familiar with ASMR when he did this. It seems to come naturally to him! More Ben Barnes content like this, please! 👏
Can we set up a petition for netflix to do longer asmr videos? There're all so good but sooooo short it's a real torture
Not me being completely captivated by his entire existence and then he says "I have a very noisy beard" and kicks me into the greatest laugh😂
I remember the first times when we Grishaverse fandom unofficially chose Ben Barnes as The Darkling, and now we have him reading the book for us! I still can't believe how far we come guys!
Omg I love him as the Darkling so much
The way S3 disappeared when Ben was done😂 the power
Ben Barnes has also narrated some books. I had no doubts about this. I hope we get more!!!
WHAT BOOKS?
@@MissDurst the latest graphic book of the greashaverse "The shadow in the woods" ( its a story about the young Darkling)
Oh my. Never been more glad to be named Alina than in this very moment.
Use headphones and turn the volume up. You will feel your heart pounding against your chest in response to his amazing voice.
Nooo because why is this so true
Naaah I actually feel the pounding somewhere else 😂 This is like audio porn.
I can picture the rest of the cast behind the camera giving him a thumbs up like "You can do this Ben!"
The fact that ben barnes in the asmr sounds exactly like darkling in the books. In the books the darkling had a stern cold and pleasant voice everytime which makes the chill run through the listener's spine.
One of the most underrated and gorgeous actors around
I’d sell my soul to hear him read that whole book.
The entire trilogy omg 😍
Please don't. You kinda need to keep that lolz
I'd sell my soul and a leg if necessary.
Ben Barnes has a charm that's so uniquely his and i fall for it each time i watch him. Also whoever's idea this was GOD BLESS YOU FOR LIFE.
Agreed. And please give us more!
WHAT a voice , WHAT a drama , WHAT an art , PLEASE keep going , from Prince Caspian , Dorian Gray and now Aleksander ; ONE .. BIG ... WOW !
I'm an ASMR fan and I'm really impressed by the hidden talent of Ben Barnes. His voice is enveloping and I lent myself to the game. He managed to completely relax me... I enjoyed his performance 😍👌

This was so erotic but as soon as he started pouring the glass of water I burst out laughing until I cried. Bless you Ben Barnes 🙏
Same!! 😂😂😂
me too 😂😂😂😂
when they changed the camera angle lmaooo
It was so funny for no reason 😭☠️
The water was a total non-sequitur 😂
this is the first time i have seen him in literally anything (i just watch a lot of asmr) and now i need to see everything he has acted in ever
Do not start with the Darkling... There's no way back 🖤
Prince Caspian in Narnia is where it started for me 😌
Season 1 of the Punisher.
Season 1 of Westworld
Yes, you must catch-up. I would suggest a specific movie to begin with, but I can't choose. Here's a few I've seen with him in it and I'm sure I will miss a few lol .... Stardust, Dorian Grey, Narnia (there's 2 of them he was in), Seventh Son & The Big Wedding.
I need a 3 hour version please
I need the entire book series read like this. Either the entire cast or just Ben Barnes. Please! Who else agrees? Audiobooks are good. But asmr audio with video are just next level. Thank you Ben Barnes (for the sneak peek?)!
I am pretty sure I lost my virginity again when he said, "Gentle touch." Netflix, you know what you are doing, and I thank you for it.
😂😂😂
He has the best voice for this kind of things.
My first language is not English, so I always watch the show in translation. But I always switch Ben's scenes to the original so I can hear his voice and intonation. They are fascinating.
I have SO many feelings right now omg this man is perfect❤
I kept giggling the entire time, I just couldn't (& still can't) take this seriously 🤣 There were bits where it got quite sexy, but then it got ridiculous again with all the book-stroking, water-pouring, beard-caressing actions 🤣 Oh Ben is just so pure & hilarious! ❤
Is it normal that I have played this video too many times? I could listen to it all day and never get tired. i need more ben barnes asmr content i am addicted to his voice
Imagine being an actor and having so many people thirst over you that Netflix calls you to do ASMR
Amazing job though. He should record an audiobook
The money I would pay for this man making the series an audio book 💌
This was almost too good 😅
Ben Barnes doing ASMR is something I never knew I needed. ❤
soft spoken and Ban Barnes just fit perfectly together, the whisperes were good but man the vibration of his soft spoken voice is something else entirely
I loved his ASMR a lot. His voice is so powerful and mesmerizing! 🔥😍💕👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ben Barnes should have his own ASMR UA-cam channel. Just think about it Ben 😂❤
I am completely and utterly in love with ben barnes and no one can tell me otherwise
I’m gonna fall asleep listening to this masterpiece every night 😭
Now we need more!
😂😂
I love him since Narnia : Prince Caspian (2008) 💗 he is so adorable and we have the same birthday, August 20th
He knew the assignment so well 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠
„I have a very noisy beard“ this video was all i ever wanted, thank you ben
i don't like asmr..... but i do like ben barnes. he could even read the bible or whatever else he wanted, and i'd be sitting there listening in awe
Agreed and same
i love asmr and i LOVE ben barnes so this is a dream come true
Agreed on the bible thing,because I was literally only listening to the sound of his voice without paying attention to a single word of what he said 😂😂
I need him to read more. His voice is amazing with this oh my gosh
I don't know what attracts me more, his voice or his look...🤤🔥
Can't believe we're getting this for free.
Life is good! ❤️
This video is a literal blessing
This video alone is the only reason that got me to start watching shadow and bone.
As a person who enjoys asmr I see this as an absolute win :)
Absolutely 🤗💯
give whoever came up with this idea a raise omg
Bro why is he so charming😭
HE KNOWS WHAT HE’S DOING!
You have no idea how long I have been begging for this😂 They sure know their audience very well
Omg, why is this so damn good?? He is actually amazing at asmr! Such a charming and handsome man
Omg.. that voice!!! We need more Ben Barnes ASMR!!
I'm not ashamed to say I have listened to this a couple times now ahhh love Ben!
I love ben barnes. And i love asmr. This is my new lullaby
I loved season 2. I can't wait for season 3. I'm probably going to read the books and rewatch season 2 before then.
READ THE BOOKS!!!! you get so much more content and it’s just an entirely other experience
@@nadja-ty8sl thank you so much! I’ll check them out :)
i can't believe he really... you know at the end, it's not possible 😢
Ben Barnes will be a billionare if he started an asmr business. I would pay for this 😅
His voice alone is the Asmr. That rumbling deep voice so sooo good!!!
I didn't like ASMR until now and I've never been more jealous of a book in my entire life.
i know that it's supposed to be relaxing, but my heart is pounding like crazyyyy
Young Sirius Black. LOL Ben Barnes is every Fan casting Sirius...just needs grey eyes.
As an serious enjoyer of asmr I actually got tingles from this his voice is perfect for this!! And I know people rave over light colored eyes but to me eyes like his are truly so beautiful!!!
Nah this is General Kirigan ASMR Book Read, The way he was talking through his teeth with intensity before even reading the book and the mannerisms, he was in full Darkling Mode!
This is gonna be my lullaby
Holy moly this has been one of the best ASMR I've seen yet!!
I think this has awoken something deep within me 🤭
this is everything I’ve ever needed
This isn't enough... I want more of HIM!!!
Well, it made me even more excited than relaxed
It’s unhealthy how many times I replayed this video and…. 🥵
BEN BARNES ASMR WTF I'M DEAD
I have no idea how I ended up here but loving the ASMR! This man has an amazing voice
When I tell you I am in chock. His voice😭😭 i am dead
“And I play…” DEAD. IM DEAD. I AM NOT BREATHING ANYMORE
this guy is 41 years old? I don't believe it. i love you caspian
he knew exactly what he was doing ahhhhhh
i got out siege and storm right away. his voice is so comforting omg
thanks to my parents for giving me the name Alina and now I can hear how Ben Barnes pronounce it
OH MY GOD !!!! This is perfect.
I've watched other ASMR by Netflix but it didn't do anything to me, but this one...I really had goosebumps ! Totally charmed by Ben Barnes
I don't know who he is but damn get him his own asmr UA-cam channel now!!!!! 😂😂😍😍
I don't watch the Show or know the books but but I swear I would listen to this man reading me to sleep and if it would just be the sport part of the newspaper
Literally binged both seasons in less than 2 days due to this video alone
I'll make him my villain any day of the week
