      First time i paid attention to the lyrics this line stuck with me, i associate it with my kids and wife. I'm planning on getting it tattooed on my body, along with other lyrics i have of his. It says something so basic, but so important and complex, and fundamental to happiness. The live version from Jazzfest (or something), with the visuals in the background, makes me weep with happiness. It's so beautiful.

Found him maybe 6 months ago and have listened to everything he has written. I am so captivated by his lyrics and the way he plays his guitar. So unusual. So delightful. So able to take me somewhere else. He knows that guitar inside out. I have felt so many emotions that I believe are his coming out so subtly. I believe he's had a lot of different sorrows in his life and his music is how he can release his emotions. And that's just one reason why we all love him. Beautiful job Ben.

    Ben you are such a talented artist. Your voice mixed with this eerie sound goes so well. The more i listen to your songs lately the more i apreciate them. I've followed your songs and albums all the way. Thanks you so much ❤️

    Ok right now I've been getting quite drunk with my friends I'll come back tomorrow to see if it's still a masterpiece
