Gold to Me - Ben Harper

[MrsLollyLePink]

Outstanding!

[zenfulmama]

love the Duds!

& the music of course...

[gavilanchocolatero]

@ohsosickwithit, the fact that you disagree with my comment doesn't make my comment stupid. I'm presenting a point of view and you, you are just criticizing me. Use your brain; think about what I'm saying and post a comment with a counterargument if you have one.

His lyrics are very unsophisticated in my opinion. And that is typical of people that don't read much. I do like his music. A lot. Which is the reason I was watching this video in the first place.

[220blue]

@gavilanchocolatero listen to diamonds on the inside-those aren't unsophisticated lyrics. and remember rockNroll and rhythm and blues songs aren't generally sophisticated lyrically...perhaps you should stick to opera songs while on the tube-lol.

[ryguyrbot1]

@gavilanchocolatero Im not judging or criticizing but what would you consider to be an example of some sophisticated lyrics?

[skittlepig42]

...and then Ben yells at him "where you at?" I've listened a few times and I don't hear Juan missing a beat.

[skittlepig42]

Love how Juan drives this song.

[paul7777ism]

Ben Harper rocks.

[66feebee]

I so love this guy!! Love his music!!



[elisabethfaris]

The hairs on my arms actually stand up when I hear this song! It touches me so deeply!

[gavilanchocolatero]

his lyrics are childish. "the difference between gold and brass" is an analogy that a 5th grader would use. I wonder if he's ever read a good book

[ohsosickwidit]

@gavilanchocolatero well at least he has a video and all you have is a stupid comment on youtube

"I wonder if he's ever read a good book" U sound like a No Good "Know it all" ...Peace Out

[spaded01]

Ben Haper has the pick of dystany!

[Tripe19]

Fantástico. tanks Ben

[Alhajita83]

the difference from gold and brass...

[bigbearjpw]

Ben is good as it gets.

Smoke a bowl of good purp and crank that shit :)

[Lilandra226]

Absolutely loooove this song and Ben is King ;)

[FreakinRican6969]

thumbs up to the man who discovered Jack Johnson......

[MzMichelle5504]

This was the first Ben Harper song I ever heard....12 years ago!! He is still my favorite artist!

[madhoneydew]

never ceases to make me smile

not despite of hard times, but because of them

[e4hookah]

Cheers mother fuckers....

[brycecake2]

I dig the sneakers with his gettup :)

[shellyt17]

Is that a dulcimer?

[spongyplunger]

nah

[worthyofHisblood7]

@shellyt17 It's a steel guitar. :)

[timandfaithrock]

He puts more emotion into each and every single note that comes from him than most popular artists will ever

[marocram]

Ben detto!

[V1z1on]

great live version but that out fit? i know you're going for a country vibe - but come on Ben!

[fuckamericanidiot]

haha i know not even ben harper can pull off that shirt and trouser combo

[heedthebaw1]

Hey Danielle, been a while since i've done this for you but thought what a song to express how i feel cause im shite with putting it into words x

[feefiefoefey21]

This song says everything about the one you LOVE!

[joerasch]

A friend of mine actually bought a record from Ben at his grandparents store The Folk Music Center. Back in the day so to speak.

-Joe

[bassthunder]

Notice at about 3:27 he looks over to his left and yell's "where you at?" because his bass player missed the bridge. His bassist is a groovy player, but must have spaced out while Ben was soloing.

[giudittacompri]

SEI GRANDE. Punto e basta. SEI GRANDE.

[lalamunns]

The white guy playing guitar has a body buffer on his hat - dya recon he showers in his clothes? lol! Great song Mr Harper!!

[bett27]

Sorry, I meant Weissenborn XD

[bett27]

Best Weisenbourn player alive!!! Thats what he is playing FYI

[pinkamos]

I love burn one down to superrueben, but recently I have come to love Ben's edition of the verve's song " The drugs don't work." I also love "she's only happy in the sun" and "my own two hands." Obama should use that song.

[lardogsss]

Ben is by far one of the most influential, inspiring and phenomenal artist of our time...he exudes magic and eloquence when he sings and plays..and he lyrics can be prophetic, uplifting, emotional, and revolutionary. He is so versatile in his playing abilities...and he kills it on the slide guitar. I am so blessed to be alive to witness such an amazing performer and artist. Cheers to you Ben for giving us so many beautiful moments...and songs to remember them by.

[lardogsss]
