12 Years later and here we are. We've come full circle in our journey. I wanna start from the beginning again. Ben encapsulates more than just a chapter in our lives...but an era. The music is timeless. But the times, sadly wouldn't last. Magical & fleeting. But the memories remain. It's Christmas day, 12-25-2023... And what I wouldn't give to go back to 10-11-2011 when this was made....And play it all over again.... Who's comin' with me??
I truly feel the same but i got here on an april day, 2024, and i heard this songs non stop before my daughter was born on 11-14-2011. Greetings from Chile!
It blows my mind how people are just passing such a great musician by. Ben Howard is easily one of the best musicians I have ever heard. I would die just to be near something like this.
brought a little tear to my eye listening and watching this - this was so earlier on, amazing the amount of beautiful songs he has written since -he's a truly inspiring soul - can;t wait to finally catch him live in brixton next year
Ben you are absolutely amazing these have been 2 of my all time favorite songs for years. They never get old for me. I sincerely thank you for sharing your gift!! I can't believe not a single applause...im screaming from across the pond F**king BRILLIANT brother!!! Wooooooo
Ben Howard, you will probably never see this, but you inspire me. You make me want to express myself through music, in a way that I never could. You are freaking awesome, keep it up
Ben is my most favorite artist of all time....something about him...when an artist passes over to magician....everything is magic to me! Thank you for this and any further SOUL MAN uploads......Peace&Love
This guys music makes me go over so many past experiences and feelings. Just in a song . Just him and his guitar. Unbelievable talent . Taps into my soul , if I have one left lol. Enjoy . Life had taken me to a low point when I tuned into him and he made sense . It's a lot to ask of a musician. Hope you guys are good .
Absolutely love this, I have seen James Morrison and recently Ed Sheeran both live. Ben Howard is now next on my list the guy is incredible! What a voice and a talent!!!
hate it how people just walk past. its not the fact they dont know he is famous, but if i heard someone that wasn't famous belting these kind of tunes i would show some appreciation.
wonderful, love the improv, spirit filled stuff you put out Ben, keep having fun, play what you love and the rest of us will just keep enjoying the art
your microphone have a really good sound and and the mix is so pure! Really good video too...the climax's so strange, with the wind, the people walkin'... Congratulations to Ben and Ya!!! Bravo le hiboo paris!
I really liked the style of filming! I think it was more than a simple documentation as it went on its own adventures, showing more than one simple perspective, adding to the experience for me as a watcher. I thought it was complementing the performance really nicely by showing a bit of emotion in itself. Also, beautiful location!
I wish Mr. Howard would come back. he has checked out and his music changed. his spirit has embraced darkness and coldness. even sadder...im becoming the same
I don't know what would i do if i could meet him like that. He's my authority, and i hope someday i will be like him and we'll drink cola in little restaurant like this.
Funny, people comment about passersby, but they probably could not hear the music, it seems to have been miced fir the vid but not amplified? Just sayin'
if only i've been there walking this exact moment... well, we'd sure be married by now. btw, wake up paris people... great music is happening and you pay no attention!
Not out of tune just an alternate tuning...CGCGGC...Yeah, never would do that myself, but whatever haha...He does these weird things with half capos too
This is a great video (with a great artist, of course). I really like the camerawork, and I would be interested to know how you did the sound. Given you move away from the source a lot, this cannot simply be a directional mic. I could see Ben had his guitar mic'd up, but could not see a mic for his voice.
Not gona lie tho the old ben was so much happy lol he doesnt like the fame but said fame does allow him to do what he wants for a living. Idk i love Ben Howard hes one of my favorites but todays Ben gives me doouche vibes. Considering how mad he was during his Noonday tour in North America and Europe. Many people didt apprecaite the new tracks and wanted the old. Judging by the new album which is just like Noonday, it seems Ben will problably not return to his folk roots. Iam ok with it but like i said not everyone feels the same and in my concert in NYC he literlally said his goodbye and let his band close out the song. TBH there was alote of chatter during the tunes and there were articles saying he seemed pissed throughout the tour and that he didt want to play his old tracks because he said they were boring. I get that you want to play new tracks since its callled Noonday tour but he just played two of his old hits all night. and strickly all new which many didt know the words too. People go for the oldies. Its like the Red Hot Chili Peppers in the Getaway tour as they played some new album hits in 2015 but of course pplayed thier hits because thats why people attend.
@lehibooparis I didn't mean to offend you or anything, it was just when you were close up on Ben's face during Black Flies. As a whole, I love this video. I just thought I'd mention it. But since I'm the only one... disregard I guess haha

I’m with you brother
I truly feel the same but i got here on an april day,
2024, and i heard this songs non stop before my daughter was born on 11-14-2011. Greetings from Chile!
*We Must Look Forward Brother*
It blows my mind how people are just passing such a great musician by. Ben Howard is easily one of the best musicians I have ever heard. I would die just to be near something like this.
Me too!!!
I agree
It’s just as he would rather have it❤
If only he was still at this style :(
If only these people knew what they were walking by… if only I was one of those people just to catch a glimpse of this
i prefer listening to him live than recorded. if he does a live acoustic album i'll buy a million copies.
Ben Howard: The Poet of my generation. I hope kids will learn about him at school in a few centuries.
He paints a hell of a picture
This man's music smacks me in my soul.
One of the best reactions a musician can get haha
Thought the same how to hell can you not stop hearing this . But maybe its like life ; u keep running while the beauty is happing right next to you
His singing and playing here is just SO RAW and emotional. WOW.
anybody else thinking how can people just pass when such beautiful music is being played?
There's nobody behind him, but they'll be loads in front of him loving it
Ben's songs choke me while I attempt to sing along, dude is singing into my soul.
Randomly thought of this video and had to come back 7 years after first watching it. Still so good!
Me just now brother
Same
there's just something that's so good about this version of old pine, just Ben on his own sounds brilliant.
brought a little tear to my eye listening and watching this - this was so earlier on, amazing the amount of beautiful songs he has written since -he's a truly inspiring soul - can;t wait to finally catch him live in brixton next year
i would sheet my pants if i saw him just standing there playing
sounds like there's a full band in his hands! so talented with a guitar and his voice is just unbelievable!
What a great voice and personality helped me through my darkest moments
This guy has some real fucking talent, he's too good to exist.
The way he writes, sings, plays. Wow, what an inspiration for this generation.
If I've ever fallen in love, it is Ben's music that has me smitten.
Ben you are absolutely amazing these have been 2 of my all time favorite songs for years. They never get old for me. I sincerely thank you for sharing your gift!! I can't believe not a single applause...im screaming from across the pond F**king BRILLIANT brother!!! Wooooooo
You can really see how much he just enjoys playing. Love him!
That scarf on the guitar.. 🤌 *chef’s kiss*
how can you not like this there must be something wrong with the person who dislikes this! ben is 100% pure talent!!
Ben Howard, you will probably never see this, but you inspire me. You make me want to express myself through music, in a way that I never could. You are freaking awesome, keep it up
Ben is my most favorite artist of all time....something about him...when an artist passes over to magician....everything is magic to me! Thank you for this and any further SOUL MAN uploads......Peace&Love
Ive been randomly coming back to this video for the past 3-4 years...
You should come back!
This guys music makes me go over so many past experiences and feelings. Just in a song . Just him and his guitar. Unbelievable talent . Taps into my soul , if I have one left lol. Enjoy . Life had taken me to a low point when I tuned into him and he made sense . It's a lot to ask of a musician. Hope you guys are good .
pure talent ...this guy is just sick
would give anything to meet ben. he's the greatest musician i'll ever know, has inspired me everyday for the 3 years i've listened to him
Despite whether I knew him or not I would still stop to listen to this guy.
Sad
Oh
Absolutely love this, I have seen James Morrison and recently Ed Sheeran both live. Ben Howard is now next on my list the guy is incredible! What a voice and a talent!!!
Every time is just incredible! What a beautiful soul! Gracious :)
this song doesnt get old!
the cinematics are spectacular
Absolutely phenomenal. I want to meet this guy. I could listen to him all day.
The beauty in this is unreal.
hate it how people just walk past.
its not the fact they dont know he is famous, but if i heard someone that wasn't famous belting these kind of tunes i would show some appreciation.
My favorite artist. Love him and his music. Thanks for the vid.
wonderful, love the improv, spirit filled stuff you put out Ben, keep having fun, play what you love and the rest of us will just keep enjoying the art
Ben Howards voice could melt a dragon.
In that case - best to keep him away from Cersei Lannister !!
pretty sure it does...
Discovered "Old Pine" today and then found this video. Exceptional cinematography. Fits the pace and emotion of the songs. Great work!
that orbit shot followed by the close up was a SERIOUS work of art WOW great shot
thanks :) but the best thing to do is watching V2 ! :) (you have just to search "ben howard" in my channel)
He is one hell of a beautiful musician, ahhhhh!
your microphone have a really good sound and and the mix is so pure! Really good video too...the climax's so strange, with the wind, the people walkin'... Congratulations to Ben and Ya!!! Bravo le hiboo paris!
Love this video of him! What a brilliant musician and so charismatic!
I really liked the style of filming! I think it was more than a simple documentation as it went on its own adventures, showing more than one simple perspective, adding to the experience for me as a watcher. I thought it was complementing the performance really nicely by showing a bit of emotion in itself. Also, beautiful location!
I watched him play a couple of months ago and hes doesnt seem as happy playing like he does here and i think you can tell in his music
Such an amazing voice that I could listen to for hours :). Wonderful.
i wish you knew how much I love this song.
in love with his music - damn that's perfect
Oh my god! He's so happy! ahhh i love him
What a shame, that there're almost no people who're watching at this brill perfomance!
no no it's not the wind that makes the scarf move (1:30). it's definitely the tune that makes it "dance".
I love how greedy youtube shoves an ad in ninety seconds into this video lol 😂😭
I wish Mr. Howard would come back. he has checked out and his music changed. his spirit has embraced darkness and coldness. even sadder...im becoming the same
I love his music and he's also so very handsome!
Ben is truly awesome.
He is absolutely perfect in every way possible!
I don't know what would i do if i could meet him like that. He's my authority, and i hope someday i will be like him and we'll drink cola in little restaurant like this.
Perfectly said
Very nice filmed! The artistic of his music fits very good with the artistic side of how this is filmed. Makes everything very interesting.
He is amazing !
Ben Howard is amazing!
Ok I'm crying now
This is back when we were the ocean and he was just a stone😏
Real artists improvise :)
thanks for sharing !
bahahahahahahaahaha
Real artists realize that everything is already perfect and the sense of improving is only yourself fooling itself
@@gladman9634 what? Improvise not improve. What are you smoking?
Funny, people comment about passersby, but they probably could not hear the music, it seems to have been miced fir the vid but not amplified? Just sayin'
This is a true gem
all these people just walking past greatness whitout even knowing it....
lol when that old guy just walks through the shot, hahaha!
brilliant
My two favourites!
thank your the amazing video and thank you Ben for the amazing music : )
Keeping my mind level on Lockdown ✌💙
5:04 is the BEST bit. Pure joy on his face! XD
i love this music it almost has an ed sheeran vibe love u x
Very beautiful...
I love this guy
love you ben !
No man is an island, oh this i know.. But can you see??
Maybe you were the ocean, and i was just a stone
i like the way that old guy at the start didnt give a shit, "all walk past ben, im the boss!" ¬__¬ awsome vid MASSIVE fan of the howardmister :D:D
i am in love with him
haha no a scarf does not make a difference to the sound, he just needed a strap for his guitar, love this tune!
He is amazing live!!
The face he made at the last part of old pine when he was jamming out made me think of the kid in August Rush C:
It's so weird because he just reminds me of him in general. I think it's how into his music he gets
I love
stunning
Awesomeness!!
LOVE the cameraaaa
I love you, HibOO ^^
i like the captures ;) good job
awesome.
if only i've been there walking this exact moment... well, we'd sure be married by now.
btw, wake up paris people... great music is happening and you pay no attention!
that guitar so out of tune... but tuned to his ear, which is PERFECT
Not out of tune just an alternate tuning...CGCGGC...Yeah, never would do that myself, but whatever haha...He does these weird things with half capos too

i don't know about everyone else but ive sure watched this video 35,118 times
5:13 - So that's the expression you get when you realise your creating magic right there..

2020 fake corona propaganda anyone?
I love and respect Ben Howard and his amazing skill and talent
