    The way Alec Benjamin writes his music is so unique and special. He did an interview with Eric Nam where he explains how some of his songs were created in case anyone is interested. The podcast is called "I think your dope" and it's ep 3. You can watch the whole thing here on UA-cam.

    @oneshysquish9409 4 роки тому +835

    I think that Alec has so many good songs, especially his “older” ones. So it would be great if you could react to more. Some of those are:
    “If We Have Each Other”
    “Death of a Hero”
    “Saddest Song”
    “My Mother’s Eyes”
    “1994”

    Alec could’ve become a writer with how his songs play out like stories. Instead, he became a singer. So we’re blessed by this angel’s melodic voice and meaningful lyrics.
    Alec is a modern-day Apollo. An urban Orpheus.
    Imagine if Alec did something based on a Greek Myth(Like Orpheus)

I feel like we should recommend at least one artist who's nothing but happy times as like a palette cleanser.

    Based on some of the things you've done, can I recommend the songs from Sander Sides? It's a video series on UA-cam by Thomas Sanders, and it touches on very important subjects through discussion or music, and I highly recommend it! Some of my favorite songs: Forbidden Fruit, Incomplete, and New Years Lies! There aren't many of them, but I love them and I think you'll appreciate one or two of them! Thomas Sanders also sings songs outside of the series, I highly recommend The Things We Used To Share, On The Borderline, and Recipe For Me! I love your videos, keep doing what you do!

I‘d really appreciate if you would react to them!

    Hi i dont know if you'll see this, but please do a "trying to stan: EDEN" video. His songs manage to get me through tough times and I love them.
    4 song reccomendations are:
    1. Falling in reverse
    2. Wake up
    3. and
    4. Crash
    The 2 that i REALLY want to see in that video (if you even make the video let alone see this comment) are "Wake Up" and "Falling in Reverse" (also yes, "and" is actually one if his songs-)
    No pressure to make this video, and if you have already then just ignore this comment ;-;
