  • I saw Ben last week at Shepherds Bush ... he was amazing. His label mates Fossil Collective supported him and were also amazing ... and I met everyone after and both bands posed for pictures .... English alternative acoustic music is alive and well xx

  • THIS, is music<3

  • ALL GODS ARE DEAD GODS LOZERS.. AMERICAN DUMBO HAHAHHA STUPID  THINGS..

  • BITCHES SPEAK WHO AR EHTEY BITCHES.. fake chrsitians ... talk tlk talk .. ya yak yak ... fake love songs

  • HWOS THIS DUMBO ?? bitches who are these?? talk !!

  • reminds me a little of Death Cab for Cutie - I will follow you into the dark. Fans of this guy should check out Bright eyes, Ben howard, laura marling etc :). (I'm not promoting just sharing the musical love eh? :D)

  • @Laspher Haha, yeah, the first chord in this song is the same as "i will follow you into the dark", bright eyes is way more 'indie' than this, doesn't really sound anything like it, the 'people', should really check out elliott smith, john mayer, william fitzsimmons, city & colour etc. i don't want to be a cunt but get your shit right. but most of all check out radical face, especially the songs ghost towns, welcome hone son, a pound of flesh :)) the best singsongwriter ever.

  • @Laspher but i do love you for mentioning all these good bands, so no hard feelings. thanks for reminding me about all these good bands that i forgot about

  • The very first guitar notes in this song sounds just like the beginning of Death Cab For Cutie's I will follow you into the dark. However, love this song. So so much.

  • When my girlfriend and I broke up, this was the only song I listened to for a very long time. We started talking again briefly enough to find out that she was listening to it as well. It's been a while since I've talked to her. Beautiful song.

  • 2:32 hammer augen

  • Comment removed

  • Im here simply because of my immaculate music taste.

    (Some guy said this before me)

  • this video is so perfect

  • does it matter why i'm here?

  • Sorry I meant is that the kid from outnumbered

  • @weasley959 He looks similar but I don't think it's him.

  • Is that the kind from outnumbered

  • Seen him live, him great. Nuff said.

  • I'm just here.

  • This song is pretty-ish, but it's just a simple variation on a theme that's been bashed to death so many times it just isn't interesting any more. Good luck BFL, but come back when you're through adolescence

  • totally death cab... but anyways nice

  • awkward moment when both top comment are thumbs up whores....

  • just saw him perform earlier today! he performed in the music festival Clockenflap today in Hong Kong. he was amazing.

  • @Maryyeung12894 same!

  • the best song ive heard this century after The killers When you where young

  • Simply one word - Amazing 

  • the song is waaay too short!

  • :)

    

  • why has this got a video of a vagina inspection in the suggestions... O.e

  • Comment removed

  • This song is AMAZING. That's all :D

  • Beautiful

  • 'Its my God hes a good God and he cares'

    this guy is a lyric genius

  • @JamesUk91 Tell me about it, Hes a GZA of his music.

  • 0:00 till 2:57 is absolutely amazing!

  • I'm just here because... well, I'm just here to listen to music mastery.

  • 0:00

  • The strum sounds like death cab

  • @candorpluslove Yeah but this is impressive, better than a few DCFC tracks.

  • @candorpluslove what song?

  • @mrwerty1000 I will follow you into the dark

  • @mrwerty1000 i will follow you into the dark by death cab for cutie

  • @candorpluslove i learnt both them on guitar and the strumming is the same ;D

  • @candorpluslove agreed!

  • Saw him at Boardmasters in Newquay <3 amazing

  • why couldnt i have written this :)

  • Perfect.

  • "When the stars are the only things we share will you be there?" <3

    " I will remember your face, cause I am still in love with that place."< 3 <3

  • @RayanneLouisee - apolofies if i affend but i'll be honest & say i'd not heard of Benjamin until recently so my views are prob limited but Ed does somethings on his album & even better live which a lot wouldnt even try...

  • this sounds so much like i'll follow you into the dark.

  • ozimarmo15 - what planet are you on u numpty - this guy is ok - but he aint hitting the heights of Ed Sheeran just yet & prob never will...

  • how can this song have 28 dislikes whats not to like about this song or video?????? O.o

  • love the style of the music video, so cute 

  • mmmmmmmh, i just feel peaceful after i listen to this song. and somewhat satisfied.

  • he makes ed sheeran look like talentless ginger

  • If you search for the word Amazing in the dictionary I'm pretty sure you'll find this song as an example of its meaning.

  • This a beatiful song, but its a complete rip off of 'I will follow you into the dark' by death cab

  • This music is simply fantastic. It's so true and pure and the video is just indescribable! Thankyou Radio 6 for introducing me to this wonderful, wonderful artist :D

  • Comment removed

  • his voice make me wanna cry

  • Went to see Benjamin Francis Leftwich tonight in the sugar club in Dublin.. What an experience, listening to his voice is like listening to a full orchestra compliment.. Sounds like a million notes all in perfect tune.. Only one word for it.. BEAUTIFUL...

  • listen to "I will follow you into the dark" by Death Cab for Cutie, it's exactly the same chords... and I think it was here before Benjamin Francis!

  • @Ytih21 its actually because of you i know that song, so thank you :)

  • @Ytih21 YEEAAH!! i was trying to remember where I heard this chord progression!!!

    thanks

  • @Ytih21 Youre right and i love that band too!

  • I'M SURE nobody will read this, and I know how annoying it is to see advertisments but I had to do something, I've tried to get a band together but there's simply nobody around my area. So I tried for once doing acoustic. I attempted covering "The A Team"

    it's definately not the best out there, but there you go :)

    I'd be so happy for atleast one of you reading this to watch my cover on my channel, but hey, if you don't have the time, thank you for even taking the time to read this. <3

  • amaizing

  •  The guitar in this song sounds very similar to DCFC's I will follow you into the dark, still love the song though.

  • i want that green hat! now

  • no one gives a crap why you are "here" obviously we are all "here" cuz we like the song, so cut the bull crap, honesty really annoying....

  • Beautiful. Something so untouched by a corporate brand or materialist crap. Ben is a light.

  • He's playing at my Uni today :D

  • I can't listen to this song only once. I NEED to listen to it at least three times in a row.

  • this song is really gay

  • THIS IS EPIC =)

  • WOW

  • i'm here because of his pure talent, not because of some shit tv show that not even worth watching!

  • i am "here" for the simple fact i have good taste in music, i am not "here" because i heard this on a t.v. show......

    stupid mainstream followers....i dont want this song blown up -__-

  • @thehippiegirl11 get over yourself and your scene.

  • @thehippiegirl11 well i'm sure leftwich does want it to blow up...not about you "hippiechick" or aka HIPSTER.

  • can i get a thumbs up for some stupid reason nobody gives a toss about

  • WTF GREYS ANATOMY! STUPID ASS TV SHOW!!!

  • I'm just here because Leftwich deserves to be listened to .

  • @Sorchpork Well theirs alot of artists out there that deserve to be listened to but Benjamin, hes one talented man. He must have studied english at oxford or something.LOL.

  • i found this free on itunes. and it's like the best song ever(:

  • im just here because of the simple undeniable fact that my music taste is amazing
