I’m so glad you took a look at this kid. His voice is beautiful and so unusual it pulls you in to listen more closely. Benson was favored to win American Idol a couple years ago and dropped out to pursue his career. He made a good choice. I thought you might find him interesting! Thanks Bill!
You're darn tootin' I found him interesting! Just WOW! I'm really glad he dropped out- big respect for that! Thank you so much! The next one will be very soon. Much love❤️❤️❤️
You are absolutely on point, Velouria. I think he's doing just fine without signing with that devil, Cowell. Benson is too good for any of those cookie-cutter shows. Thank you❤️❤️❤️
My 9&10 year old sons introduced me to this song. I love it so much. They’re into music as much as I am, which is spectacular for bonding with them. Music was something me and my late father shared, too. My sons are my beautiful things. 🥰
Your interpretation of this song is right on. Excellent reaction! Benson has written many love songs and i agree with you, they are needed today! Listen to "slow it Down" and "In the Stars", both amazing! ❤
I blast this song every day. And each time I thank god for my remarkable husband and my two beautiful little girls. They are my beautiful things. It took a few months of soaking this song up before I actually looked up who Benson is and his backstory. Shocked. Completely shocked. He is SO YOUNG and SO NEW to music. This song has the kind of honesty and soul to it that I expected from someone who had weathered years of addiction or some other major hardship, and came out the other side with a profound appreciation of healthy relationships and simple peace. I'm in my 40s and I though for sure this guy had lived a lifetime already - that's why this song resonates with all generations. It nails SO MUCH simple wisdom about LIFE. To come from a young young man, with that level of vocal control and comfort. Jeeezus, Benson, you have truly been blessed with a phenomenal talent. Phenomenal. Keep your good judgement as you navigate this wild world if fame. Once that genie is out of the bottle, you can't put it back in, and fame destroys many people. Stay grounded. I hope you live a long beautiful life and keep your music in a very healing place in your soul. Thank you for sharing it with us.
FYI - Benson's was raised in greater Seattle area (Monroe) and his Uncles are many Gen X rockers raised in Bellevue with Heart, Quensryche, and then all the grunge bands that followed after in the 90's (known and unknown)
You should listen to more of his music. In one of his songs he sings about his grandmother, who died . I think that explains why the past four winters were difficult for him.
vibed with tttheyir a super lot. god tier level of quality. theyard tttheyir song a couple days ago and I fell in love 😵Lately I can't stop listening to October Ends' new song. You need to react to it out 🔥

Haven't watched idol in years, but I'm glad he dropped out. He's too good to be caught up in their machine. Really enjoyed this! Thank you Bill ❤

Here we go, Bill, more proof that the future of rock/popular music/country is in good hands. His versatility is amazing!
I couldn't say it better, my friend! A very bright light in a dark world.

His whole album is awesome. Ive liked all songs.
I bet it is! Thank you!
Grammys... Grammys...Grammys...nothing less will do. 🎉🎉
Thanks Bill! And thank you Jamie! It's hard to believe this kid is only 21! I'm a fan! Beautiful song!
I'm a fan now too! Thank you!
Absolutely amazing...5th week NUMBER 1 here in South Africa on 5FM Top 40. Love it ...what a voice 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I'm not surprised with a voice like that!
They’re in Utah. He’s fabulous!!
Great reaction! Loved Benson's video and music. Thanks for sharing❤❤❤
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you! Yes, this was my first song but I've done Slow it Down too! ❤️

Thank you! Yeah, I was shocked as well. He's what you could call an 'old soul' in the body of a young man. His talent is a blessing to us!
FYI - Benson's was raised in greater Seattle area (Monroe) and his Uncles are many Gen X rockers raised in Bellevue with Heart, Quensryche, and then all the grunge bands that followed after in the 90's (known and unknown)
THAT'S amazing! Yeah, I'm sure he's got to be familiar with all the amazing bands from that area. Thanks for the info!
Hands down Song of the Year.
Such a beautiful song. I just love it.
The video location was at St. George, Utah.
Thank you! So gorgeous! ❤️
Take a second to look up his American Idol audition.. it's a cool story cuz he never sang before... just watch it!!!
You should listen to more of his music. In one of his songs he sings about his grandmother, who died . I think that explains why the past four winters were difficult for him.

I will! thank you!
If u like this, u should definitely check out “Frostbite” by Jake Kohn….he’s 15yrs old and his voice and songwriting ability is stellar!!!!!!
Listen to the golden years by Joshua Bassett 🫶
Thank you, my friend! I started a file on him and when I do that song I'll give you a special shout out. Really appreciate you! ❤️
Have you ever listened to Athiest or Neurotica?
No I have not. I honestly never heard of them before.
