I Was Very Small in Her Stomach feat. Lauren O'Connell

[TheFloaty]

That was very beautful. Both the writing and the composition. Wonderful job.

[dankoch2010]

Wow. Powerful songwriting. I put this in my favorites.

[lynxtbw]

is that a Rabbit hole shirt like for the play? because i love that play. oh, and keep making music togather! i love your two music styles and talents meshing.

[Gabbbbbbbs]

This is so beautiful!

[QymanaOnAQuest]

I don't really have words that adequately express the way this song makes me feel. It definitely gives me hope that there are still people out there who write MUSIC.

This song reminds me of Sufjan Stevens, but this is exponentially better. I can't stop listening to it. Thanks for sharing.

[hrq79]

Ben, this song is amazing! Great lyrics, wonderful melody, awsome harmony with Lauren! Please, keep doing good music!! Greetings from Brazil!

[thejosiexxx]

[bgoetzmate]

This is wonderful. You two sound amazing, great writing and performance.

[Grayishblue405]

I love you two together.

[HaleyMarie182]

[williamandthewolf]

[babamari]

DON'T STOP MAKING REAL MUSIC.

[rchelsea90]

This is absolutely melancholy and beautiful.

[MrEarcheese]

I'm definately subscribing now.

This is the second time I've bumped into your channal by accident and both times were very pleasant.

This is a really heavy song, but it's sort of relaxing at the same time. I like it.

[oddarmadillo]

I just fell in love with you.

[Ninnamonstro]

beautful song *.*

[VenusAsABoyFilms]

you're way way way too adorable (like your songs)!

[fadoogle]

I don't see how more people haven't seen this video. It's amazing. Do you ever tour?

[xtingu]

I really, really enjoyed this. Thanks for writing this song, and thanks for getting it out there. You're both very talented!

[29bluelagoons]

this is beautiful. thank you for making me smile. (:

[10cigars]

First off, your stuff is amazing. I'm scared of a lot of things, is now one of my favorite songs. but i was wondering what kind of set up you have for recording? if you don't mind i would love to know.

[benjaminjamesonmorey]

@10cigars I have a studio projects c1 large diaphragm condenser mic and a couple fat head ribbon mics that a company called cascade makes. I run them into logic through my alesis io26 interface. I'm so glad that I could write one of your favorite songs. Thank you.

[krutovs]

this is honestly one of the best songs ive heard on the youtube. i feel it

[ChannelCassie]

What are the chords?

[benjaminjamesonmorey]

@ChannelCassie Sorry, it took me a while to answer. The chords are D G Bm and A(repeat)

then they are Bm A G D (repeat)

Thanks so much for everything Cassie.

[ChannelCassie]

@benjaminjamesonmorey Just marry my friend Lizz and we'll call it even. (Just kidding.) Thanks for the chords Benjamin. I'ma go do some jammin' now

[PianoOnAStick]

You're awesome and your vids deserve more views!

[FlyingHorseKnuckles]

Write from what you know, they say, and you will succeed. Very powerful, and true.

~Jon

[KissMyPaopu]

1. i adore this song it makes me wanna cry its so good. and 2. i ordered a cd but havent gotten it yet =( can you tell me if im getting it soon?

[lsnook]

this makes me want to shed slow tears. Its beautiful and says so much with so little words.

[Metrosexualmod27]

cassie sent Us! ... yr deffintly not Anti-Folk at all .... folk /indi is a good description ,

[UkePunk]

Ben this is a fckin top tune mate, lots of love from the Ukulele Punk

[SamUncutProductions]

Fantastic song. Really incredible.

[sheila0brckn]

Also, I agree with MisanthropicPulp: very Kimya Dawson-esque. And I mean that with the highest of praise. Kimya's a lyrical beast. You and her share that talent.

[sheila0brckn]

I think I would die if you wrote a song about me, Ben. You are an amazing artist. I'm in love with your voice and style. You're music is perfect.

[ChannelCassie]

I noticed also while sending this to everyone I know that you have an Alvarez guitar. So do I. I mean I can't work it as well as you, but we're clearly soul mates.

[kelsey1131]

I'm a bit confused... I left a comment earlier. Was it deleted?

[jackie77m]

GAAAAHHH I love it when you two sing together!!!!!!!

ben, I think i've favorited like all your videos haha you're awesome...

and Lauren is like a musical muse.

[MisanthropicPulp]

This song nearly made me cry, you are both really good. The song reminds me of songs I listen to by Kimya Dawson and I adore those as well.

Regarding the content...I have no words...I have a dad and a mom and am now even more grateful for them...for those who have never even met their mom/dad I am sure they are enchanted...

thank you

[benjaminjamesonmorey]

My band New Socks just got asked to open for her on March 5th in Rochester, NY! I'm so unbelievably excited.

[MisanthropicPulp]

waa that is so cool, very happy for you, you definitely deserve it×D

I so wish I could see you and her perform, perhaps when you come to Europe haha

good luck anyways...

[alphafloflomonsta]

thank you.

[acidfingers]

It's very difficult to describe how this song makes me feel without sounding weird. I just feel like I'm laying outside in the summer and my feet are resting on the soothing, warm ground. It's a very calm feeling, which completely contrasts the theme of the lyrics.

Almost in a way it's recognizing unfortunate circumstances but beginning the process of healing.

I really love this song, you have beautiful musical talent! I have a feeling this song will be on repeat for the rest of my work day :)

[chriscommissomusic]

Brilliant song

[ChannelCassie]

So I've listened to this song a lot since yesterday. Probably 15 times at least. I really like it. It feels so simple and bare and just out there and I feel like it just perfectly describes the situation/emotions you're looking at. I wish I could write songs like you. Lauren, too. And your voices sound great together. Musical babies?

[alsetsfire]

This is so wonderful. It's already been said but somehow the sad songs always resonate the most. You guys are a perfect combination. You should totally come to England for some intimate gigs and a cup of tea :)

[apineda91]

ive said it before and ill say it again ur freaking awesome and with lauren OMG :)

[stealingroses]

this is what is up.

[jamesmarshallhendrix]

I really enjoy listening to this song. Your vocals pop when combined with Lauren's very unique singing voice.

[emmfan09]

Freaking beautiful lyrics and a beautiful piece.

[KindOfNiceGuy]

I love songs that tell life stories. It's like watching condensed movies, makes my mind wander. Well done you two.

[rhythm7a]

Well done! Sad song, but those of us who knew our dads also have sad songs, so I don't know who's better off. I think maybe it's always better to know I guess.

[Oswlek]

A peppy little song with a surprisingly sad ending.  Well done!

[PhilRuse]

It's my favourite of your songs. The sad songs are the best :)

[Mickylove76]

Five stars to both of you and the strange nic nacs you have scattered around your place.

[Niotsu]

I love this song, keep up the good work! Look forward to hearing more from you both.

[TheFrenchNavy]

it's my very favourite song on the cd I orderd. But I love all the songs. I listen to them all the time. Sorry for my bad english.

[benjaminjamesonmorey]

your english is wonderful!

[openingwonder]

Brilliant compostion. Lovely voices! You know you've got a gem when I want to hear the song again.

[columthealmighty]

Creepy

[benjaminjamesonmorey]

[HaIeybop]

[P00P0STER0US]

Wonderful choice to feature Lauren, she compliments your voice perfectly.

[tonjesml]

absolutely adore this.

[LanaRaeMusic]

Mr. Morey,

Thank you kindly for this.

I cried.

[Columbustrainer]

"Am I bleeding again?"...yeah, that's happened to me too but I still rarely use a pick - plus blood is good for guitar strings, right? Keep the songs coming - the more I hear from you, the more I like...good harmonies too.

[ChannelCassie]

I haven't watched this yet but YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY !!! :D

K I'll re-comment after I watch this.

[JoJoBee]

Amazing! I love this song. It's fantastic

[NiteRider107]

I...love this song.

[JPaulDiLucci]

nice melody, nice boat

PS: Is Lauren available for being my wife?

[sande010]

wow. he's is something unique that I can't find the words to express right now. raw and honest and great. some really cool word that means all that...thats what he is.

[grayhaskins]

nice!!! sounds amazing! :)

[splicegrrl]

So beautiful. Favoriting.

[variousfruit]

i love this song (have the album) so glad you made a video :)

is this a different version?

[benjaminjamesonmorey]

yeah, this is different, Lauren isn't singing on the album version, just the youtube version.

[ChateauOfADoubt]

this was beautiful, as always.

[davidleduc85]

Hey Ben, Do you like Frightened Rabbit? I bet you could do a wicked rendition of one of their songs. :)

[ChateauOfADoubt]

is this the band lizzieradio keeps talking about?

[davidleduc85]

@ChateauOfADoubt I think she has done a few covers of Frightened Rabbit, yes? :)

[benjaminjamesonmorey]

I DO like them.

[davidleduc85]

WIN!

[newbeey54]

Made my day :) two favourite people in the world :)

[lemondrop1011]

Yay!! This is just lovely.

Thanks. :)
