The Washington native sat down with us to discuss how the loss of a loved one can be more emotional and devastating than the loss of relationship and how he put it into his song.

Also ik critics are supposed to only point out the negatives in things, but imo the world has enough Gordon Ramsay's (aka this isn't a cooking show; ppl don't need to be judged sm- nothing against Gordon) especially on the internet, sometimes it's just nice to support ppl who deserve it like Benson.

    I stumbled upon this song randomly and fell in love with it
    This song holds a special place in my heart since the lyrics are super relatable
    June 28th 2014 my family and I were in a horrible roll over car accident that ended up taking my fathers life right in front of me
    Me being only 9 at the time i didnt understand what was happening and why he wasnt waking up, me and my sister were taken to our grandparents house and both of us cried our hearts out for god to spare his life.
    After he died I really didnt know what to believe in anymore and went through lots of hardships from then on it just hit the eight year marker a couple days ago and the pain still feels raw even after all these years.
    This song saved my life a couple times so thank you benson for all you do you help those around you without even having to meet them.

I lost my grandma when I was 13 years old and 3 months before my grade 8 graduation and now I'm 18 and graduating high school. It has been really hard for me because I was her first grandchild and only granddaughter so we were really close and did so much together. I just wish she could have watched me graduate grade 8 in person but I know she was there watching over me and I know she will be with me when I graduate this year also 😭😭

You can also feel all the emotions in his voice! I am blessed to have my grandma still, but I don't know for how long! She has dementia, and I'm trying to hold on to all of the memories for both of us, while she keeps losing them! But I know that the love and the memories that I am holding on will last a lifetime in this life and the next for us both!

    Oh my God, there is something in his voice, that timbre, that this guy is blessed with ! It's crazy enough to think that this raw version he's singing SITTING DOWN might I add is on par if not slightly better than his studio version.
    And he's still so young too, I think he's just about to turn 20 tomorrow. I cannot wait to see what more he has in store for us. Just keep soaring high, Benson. Love from 🇲🇾 !

    I love the song and I recently lost my aunt and I miss her so much and the part that melts my heart is “I’m still holding on too everything that’s dead and gone I don’t wanna say goodbye cause this one means forever now you’re in the stars six feets never felt so far here I am alone between the heavens and the embers””🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰

    After losing my grandpa 4 years ago, I always felt like a piece of me left too after losing him, and after listening to this song it became a very important song to me after all the memories I made with him since I was little

    This is about his beloved great grandmother. He does an interview where he talks about her and the song. 😢

    Benson has a beautiful voice and is such a talented writer. The story behind this song is tragic yet beautiful. Sometimes all we can do is try to live life the best we can, while holding on to those memories ❤
