    Mr Clementine has some thing very close to Nina Simone or Edith Piaf, in the way he tells his story , in the raw & direct transmission of his feelings and emotions.
    Naked scars exposed to everyone. The “no filter, no shame” rendering that those who have lost everything and have nothing else than their feelings to give.
    Intense & precious .
    Thank you Benjamin

      That's exactly it. When you know, it's because you have also dealt with great loss and pain. But how he just delivers such raw and powerful things in this way. It literally knocked the air from my lungs and left me in floods of tears.

    It’s interesting to note that some people commenting have never heard of Benjamin before! I believe he was a guest on Later about 9 years ago and played this song on the show. The first time I heard him (about 5 years ago) I found him such a unique artist and love his songs. Adios, I won’t complain, Gone and Nemesis are some of my favourite tracks. If you look up some of his earlier videos you will be surprised at how much he has developed over the years, with a change in voice and looks. Look out for Benjamin performing (busking) on the Paris Metro🙂

    First time I've heard Benjamin on this show, sat there with jaw dropped. I've played this song so many times now I've lost count. Just orederd a couple of albums and can't wait for my journey into them. What a voice, what a composer. Ty Benjamin 🎹🎶

      Thanks all for the input. I'm drawn to experimental stuff anyways but can I ask James F, when you say 1st 'album', would that be At least for Now or the EP Glorious You. Or is there an even earlier one?

    I am alone in a box of stone
    When all is said and done
    As the wind blows to the east from the west
    Unto this bed, my tears have their solemn rest
    I am lonely, alone in a box of stone
    They claim to love me but they're all lying
    I've been lonely alone in a box of my own
    And this is the place, I now belong
    It's my home, home, home, home home home home home
    It's my home, home, home, home home home home home
    It wasn't easy getting used to this
    I used to scream
    It's not true, that it's only when the door is locked
    That nobody enters
    'Cause mine had been open till your demise
    But none had come, well who am I
    What have I done, what have I done?
    I've been lonely, alone in a box of my own
    They claim to be near me but they're all lying, it's not true
    I've been lonely alone in a box of my own
    And this is the place, I now belong
    It's my home, home, home, home home home home home
    It's my home, home, home, home home home home home
    Friends, I have met
    Lovers have slept and wept
    Promises to stay had never been kept
    This bare truth of which most won't share
    I hope you share
    'Cause I have been lonely
    Alone in a box of my own
    They claim to love me and be near me
    But they are all lying
    I have been lonely, alone in a box of stone
    And this is the place I now I belong
    It's my home, home, home, home home home home home
    It's my home, home, home, home home home home home

    There's a few things that losing a child to suicide will due to a mother. One, it will give you a pain that is absolutely never ending and indescribable. Two, you will become part of the group you didn't even know existed to try and survive it. Three, no matter how many other children you have it won't change the loss. Four, your life will shrink to almost nothing.
    I lost my father to suicide as a teenager, I lost my brother to suicide in 2014, I lost my mother to suicide in 2020, and now it's been just over a year that I lost my son to suicide. All of those losses were painful. Being the only person left in my nuclear family was very hard to deal with. Losing my son, at 22, is indescribable.
    What I do know is when I heard this song it is exactly what I feel like every day. The pain in his eyes is so clear to me.
