Alone - Ben Harper

[The420ME]

Right now at this moment this song touches my soul

[reuterrage]

when i started listening to ben harpers burn to shine I started getting panic attacks, especially when i would listen to this song.

[SpeakerSett]

The intro seems like a System of a Down intro, just cant recall from which song..

[AngieTheGreen]

@SpeakerSett Sounds like 'Mr. Jack' and 'Spiders' ...

[IIIHALTIAMREPTARIII]

Hey look at that. All the people that think they are alone are not. They have Ben Harper. He is way better than having a girlfriend... OK maybe not but he's close!

[maxikronnont]

I'm 18 and I love my best friend but I can't tell her "I love you" otherwise I'll fail. I'm alone and life sux

[LolAcro]

Positive mental attitude guys, don't let go!

[Amegane76]

j'adore !!

[rampaginwalrus]

"I am alone because I am so afraid of needing someone that I can't tell her I need her. I am lonely because I know she wouldn't care."-Anonymous

[junktok9]

@rampaginwalrus dude u just have one life go tell her what do you have to lose nothing so go and live

[rampaginwalrus]

@junktok9; a fellow atheist? It's complicated. It always is. I'd rather not explain myself, if you could understand. Thank you though.

[ScapegoatTheTsarBomb]

TRANSYLVANIAN HUNGER PLAGIARIZED!

[batt39270]

cool



[fatmad23]

i can feel every part of this song :( worst ²feeling ;it's like there is no hope no matter how we try even the little things that we wish for are sooo damn imposible,and what make it worse is that we realise that no one even care,we're just all alone!!! :(

[Conail23]

@fatmad23, ive shared those feeling at times. but we aren't truly alone. it is easy to let those feelings of despair overwhelm u and bury you but there is hope for all of us! One time, in the depths of my own despair and hopelesness, layin on the floor, suffering from alcohol poisoning, I cried out to God in desperation and I felt Him grab a hold of me and tell me I was going to make it and that He wouln't leave me. Jesus walked that path to Calvary. Talk about rejection. He understands.

[johnmorrisonsband]

does anybody know a link to the version with a band behind him?

[johneric420]

system of a down came 2nd. (;

[RBrendalee]

hauntingly beautiful.

[melodierebelle]

O solitude quand tu nous étreins, il fait si souffrance

[emma2011fa]

I was just watching a video for waiting for you by ben harper and saw all the comments about love and then i looked to the right and saw this aaannddd i found it more suitable to my current situation :/ hah

[dordiemaa]

@robpavi1 Ditto. :(

[loungarounda]

similar to some system of the down song somehow

[jmartinez035]

you can buy the burn to live album for this song and other great songs on that album

[samifroeh]

you know , i m so thankful ! its really wonderful video for his song. thanks .

[AthejokerA]

thanks to the 12 dislikes for making the like bar look like a blunt. ;x

[bbkinggz]

melancholy defined. beautiful song.

[Lnm22100]

U know im really sick of you FAGGOTS who bring personal beliefs or ideals to the comment board. How about u shut ur fucking pieholes and just enjoy the god damned song for christ sake!!!!!! Thank you.

[robpavi1]

im so fucking tired of being alone...

[laurajennify]

@robpavi1 that's make two of us!

[Sagatiaej]

@robpavi1 we are never truely alone,.. only within. :) I will keep you in my mind, you will never be alone again

[Lysistrata8u]

@robpavi1

You're never alone, talking with yourself and getting to know yourself will last you a lifetime, if you ask honestly, and reply honestly.

[XZERUTO3]

@robpavi1 Do you want to be my friend? You can add me. We can talk... If you want, we can be friends... And I'll never let you alone, if you don't want me to do that.

[biggmoneyme]

@robpavi1 nearly every human being on this planet feels alone. it is the curse of the mind. constantly trying to fill the void within itself by attaching itself to the external, to gain some identity of it's own. happiness has always been at hand for your race, you've just always deprived it from yourselves.

[4ripples]

jack johnson, john mayer..... give Ben Harper a listen <3



[rampaginwalrus]

@4ripples; jacka johnson and ben harper did a couple of songs together. Like 'With My Own Two Hands' and a few others i'm too lazy too write.

[nextlevele1]

anyone know where you can get / buy the Mp3 of THIS version?

[seinekins]

@nextlevele1 Google search for youtube mp3 converters.

[chucknorrispka]

@nextlevele1 zamzar works great

[markrainey81]

wow, what an amazing song, ben has soul!

[nivekragah]

this song is not about wanting to die. it is about the yearning to live when you feel like you dont have anything left. this is one of those influental songs you listen to when you feel like dieing. very beutifull!!!! .... full of pain...

[MrHakimkiller]

noob

[dwakain]

which version is it? Where and when was it recorded?

[boxercarros]

un morceau qui fera reve plus d'une personne merci ben !!!

[hmdavis14]

so painful to listen too....but so true at the same time

[jscbrown24]

@italianmafia36, my personal favourites are the will to live and burn to shine, check out some of the stuff on youtube and see what you think

[ohthehippys]

wow. this is great.

[ItalianMafia36]

what is his best album? i am getting into ben harper but idk which album to buy first.

[aKnightWhoSaysNee]

@ItalianMafia36

its best to listen to them chronologically. so you can experience bens development and progression.

you can't be wrong with any of his albums

[MisterBlackSmoke]

my heart dies the moment he starts to sing

[sikopatademiierda]

@AnimeTV100 Woooooooow dude, really???, this song makes u want to do heroin???? Wooooow ur a true man, super mega powerful, dude i wanna marry u, ur words are a life statement, so mature., So well-considered.......u seem 13, ur the only fucking pathetic human being. over here!! Shut up!

[AnimeTV100]

@sikopatademiierda Sorry I don't give attention to trolls, antagonists, flamers, grieffers, hecklers, zealots, the mentally ill or anyone who tries to win an arguement by swearing.

[sikopatademiierda]

@AnimeTV100 SWEETHEART it turns out that everything what you say fits perfectly on your personality, dont be stressed my little suckling lamb :)

[SumsTheGreat]

If I had the option to choose one man to marry, it would hands down be this one. I love youuuu!!!!!!! :') oh and my mother and I met this guy who owned this record store and my mom bought his record and flippin the guy was like yeah hes like a son to me....oh my god...and hes supposedly an amazing and kind person..... PLEASE BEN HARPER marry meeee.....ah!

[kakaseka12345]

muy pajera la wea



[phantasmo14]

thats some raw emotion. Ben Harper = Raw emotion

[Wtown06tt]

this reminds me of time when my girl sold me out and I got shot 6 times, I was lucky... I guess

[MsRebeks]

@Wtown06tt I too know how it feels be sold out well were not all the same be strong of heart .

[STILLNYI]

This song takes me straight back to my room in the hospital... Empty room, confined for two months, no guitar or bongos allowed.

[unforg1v3n]

Even though I've managed to get over this phase, this song just makes you dive into it fast once again...

Which isn't necessarily a bad thing..

[zxxx2ULUVHANNA]

perfection love, simply reality. dreamy felt moment.

[ZijnErNogNamenOver]

2:46, anyone ever had this? Rofl, I was like.. Oi! I should be moving, when I was standing still in an alley for like 10 minutes hahaha xD

[missgrunge]

I'm shivering as leaves on a tree...

[xerusamax]

Forever Alone

[Martothe111]

man ben harper is one of a kind, no other artist i know can make me feel music like him simly amazing

[youfoundme34]

There is a desperation in his words and voice. Very sad . . 

[folledeplacebo]

This is simply beautiful. Harper knows how to express pain and suffering. This song just made me cry all my tears.

I sent this video to one of a my friend to show her how I feel since she's mad at me, how messed up and sad I am. I hope so much Harper's magic will give me her back.

[MrKobden]

shitty homemade version?

[TrigonometriClReggaE]

una situacion increible.. navidad y estoy en mi casa.. pero amo a mi familia..

[TheMusicluv1]

Check out "Chillin" by Five Wheel Soul

[miertjie94]

on wich album is this song

[PeachesB91]

this man knows how to convey feelings, a good book just candles and this song ... perfect !

[ozymoc]

just a great song

[bobsuruncle22]

Ben Harper truly knows what sorrow, pain and suffering is, you can see the emotion dripping off of this.

[chipmnkross]

where did you get this version? this is the only place i've heard it.

[MyJo06]

magnifique!!!!

[azureminded1]

TKS BUNCHES

[titanicsbiggestfan]

[nathangelaray]

[carvongagiant]

[ib7tka]

[aKnightWhoSaysNee]

so if anybody knows please post it

thanks

[Yoshitorisae]

@aKnightWhoSaysNee

Download it straight from here by using the Free mp3 to Youtube Converter.

Google it, Download it, Enjoy the music.

Hope that helped. :D

[aKnightWhoSaysNee]

@Yoshitorisae

thanks, but no, it didnt help

i hate to have soundfiles that are not tagged correctly. to know the album name or date and location of recording is absolutely important to me

[Yoshitorisae]

@aKnightWhoSaysNee

Oh, sorry.

I think you can tag it with the converter but as you said you don't  know the info.

Can't help you with that, sorry. :(

[Prophecy23JC]

What is this version?

[nerfaphytum]

WOW....Great work on the video!!!!

[CherryBlossomFlowers]

This Music Says So Much Of What's Inside Of Me...

[CherryBlossomFlowers]

This Music Says So Much About What I'm Feeling Right Now.... :(

[Prophecy23JC]

Thank you for this. God bless.

[loobylouboti]

@ kochammata Thankyou! : )

[CMStrike316]

This...is amazing! I've never heard of Ben Harper before...this is fantastic.

[cochonou13]

@CMStrike316 listen "fight for your mind" album

its fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spacehead80]

i love this song. and i not find any negatives in it. nobody wants to live alone. so we are searching and yearning for a partner. ten thousand miles apart from each other we still feel love and will be united.

[MrBlanco420]

nah this is the type of song you dont wanna listen to when you are alone lol. but we all do it anyway cause its a sick song.......

[Lesterthecourtjeste1]

Am I drunk or was he trying to sound like system of a down. Anyone hear it?

[marty7airborn]

@Lesterthecourtjeste1 I think he sounds more like tool than sod

[spacehead80]

@Lesterthecourtjeste1

drunk maybe. he really does not need to sound like soad. he´s a musical genious.

[DieguzZ80]

Don't you leave me alone, alone

[rockforlifeguy]

which cd is this version off of? BTW great job with the pics and the aged effects, fits perfect!

[XxEemmacherryxX]

Alone!!!this song is too beautiful!!!I love Ben Harper!!!

[horseklopp]

as usual

[esracrengiz]

yes

[fastcats3]

To suggest that Ben Harper would need to "rip off" anything is absurd!

[danuggman]

Boy does this song bring up emotions....

[SAVi615]

un po zo?

[danuggman]

@SAVi615 I'm dumb and only know English :) j/k

[trevor3932]

@BeibaAX and 99Sorc

just enjoy the music. you guys are asses haha

[pilzlithamsyn]

gut sound

[Paralelepipedo07]

Muito Bom Fazia tempo que eu procurava por uma musica assim....

[99Sorc]

my new favorite song.

[Bigmak48]

This song is my life for the past 27 years!!! I would've long since put a bullet through my brains if I couldn't, "Burn one down," every now and then.

[inebriatedwriter]

(((dito)))

[akindele13]

This song is my life for the past 5 years

[delidani]

mine to for like a year but im kind a still in it

[MannyManolo718]

anothr Masterpiece, Ben Harper is a genius.

[FRANKMETTRAU]

when I listen to it I want to be alone; its fantastic

[FataMucchina]

Meraviglia...

[socem]

hecka cool song

[ausgebombit]

Darkthroe - Transilvanian hunger

[clinton297]

this is one of those songs you listen to when you feel like dieing.......very sad!!!!....full of pain...

[BeibaAX]

@99Sorc Or a mind that supposes it does? :]

[99Sorc]

@BeibaAX Nope =]

[BeibaAX]

@99Sorc You think you understand life and existence flawlessly? That's impossible, you'd need to have experienced everything... I thought you meant in your opinion, not infallibly.

[99Sorc]

I never said I understand life flawlessly - you did. Let me clarify for you since you seem to be on some sort of ego trip. I understand enough about life for this song to make me happy. Satisfied? Ad i never said infallibly either - you did.

[BeibaAX]

@99Sorc My only point was that you THINK you understand life and existence - you don't know, because nobody does. And I'm aware that I chose those words myself, it was simply what I thought you were implying by saying you TRULY understand life and existence, etc. etc.

[MizzHurricane]

and i feel like dying...

[99Sorc]

@clinton297 for me this song brings me amazing peace.

[clinton297]

@99Sorc ....that surprises me since the song is about being lost within yourself and feeling the unfillable lonelyness

[99Sorc]

@clinton297 yes well i find the energy and vibe of the music to be very healing and peacful. words only have the power that you give them so its easy for me to look past them you know?

[kochammata]

@clinton297 ur right on that

[reikofz93]

@clinton297 hi, i m italian, i read ur comment and I wass shocked cause i said the same thing when i heard this song for the first time. IN italian of course. Simply amazing.

[MrsCamembert]

@clinton297 not really..i like to listen to it before going to bed.

[Thekahn45]

Ben Harper sounds like what I would picture an angel to sound like. Probably the most beautiful voice I've ever heard next to Allison Krouse.

[slowxxxburn]

This song sort of sounds like "No One" by Cold. But that's not a bad thing, I love this song.

[loobylouboti]

Quite simply..beautiful : )

[kochammata]

@loobylouboti your right on that.

[FLyinKTTrain]

It's been a while since I heard this song...I forgot how beautiful it is! Ben really rocks!

[TheOB212]

You would think with all these people standing alone on beaches that a couple of them would get together and both stand awkwardly, avoiding waves while they awkwardly introspect on their lives... but together.

[porkchopmeatball]
