Courtney Vedder hahaha I didn't notice her! I would be running over to hang out with him ;P I interned at a radio station before and we had artists come in. Some people just didn't know them and others were really excited :)
I watched this multiple times with my eyes open beer in one hand,cigarette in the other. now, i dont know if benjamin encourages smoking but i sure did enjoy that cigarette..
i've been in love with this cover for 5 years now and i haven't gotten over it. most beautiful cover ever with the most beautiful fingerpicking. still in love.
I know you may never see this but... Thank you Ben. I've had some really beautiful moments in my life with my girlfriend listening to your music.We are now split up but your songs take me back to a better place so...Thank you.
Listening to his version I not only associate it with love for another but also platonic love - so much nostalgia in the guitar - playing n64 with my brother when we were kids and summer was endless. Brilliant Ben, would love to see this live in April
One of the best covers of this song I've seen yet. Ben Howard is one of few artists nowadays that shows that all you really need is one instrument to make a beautiful piece of music. Simplicity. Fuck that intro though.
I love Ben Howard, and not just because he's insanely talented - but look at how little smiles keep creeping across his face as he performs, it's clear that he loves, lives, and breathes the music. Now THAT is special.
You know that your life is great when you complain about stuff like commercials for a radio station recording videos for you that you can watch for free.
I don’t know if many people notice but this version is so smooth and he’s really on time. Every time he flawlessly transitions, you can almost see him smile at how smooth and sweet it sounds.
I adore Ben, and I love the fact that he never goes through a song without smiling, even if it's just once. You can tell he's passionate about music, amazing.
you can tell he genuinely enjoys playing this song. love it so much.
How can that lady in the background calmly eat her lunch knowing Ben Howard is in the next room singing greatness
Courtney Vedder hahaha I didn't notice her! I would be running over to hang out with him ;P I interned at a radio station before and we had artists come in. Some people just didn't know them and others were really excited :)
+Courtney Vedder I was literally thinking the same exact thing!!!
Sylvia Christensen exactly..
how dare she.
You see 2
HE LOOKS SO SAD WHEN HE SINGS 'only worth living if someebody is loving you' MY HEART I'LL LOVE YOU BEN
One thing I completely envy about Ben Howard is how much emotion he can convey performing a song someone else wrote. Just watch his face. Brilliant.
Beautiful old soul.
+Molly Wilkins I love this comment. He is a beautiful aged soul!
Years later and I just can't stop coming back to this
feel you
@@FredericHaentjensand I feel you
His voice when he sings the 'honey', is the most beautiful sound I've ever heard
I can't even .... Ever time a rewatch this it just gets more impressive.... The guitar playing.... The vocals..... Everything,,,,, I'm dying
Lana has been Howarded.
Smh. lol
Great comment lol
Lol
Lana has Ben Howarded.
The fingerpicking is exceptional.
Nothing is hard to do in his fingerstyle patterns. But to do it so flawlessly and on point, is so fucking hard.
Such an incredible artist, even better live
Awesome live
+Jackson Goo Incredible*
Ben Howard somehow manages to make songs so much deeper.
You have to listen to this laying on your bed with your eyes closed..
I watched this multiple times with my eyes open beer in one hand,cigarette in the other. now, i dont know if benjamin encourages smoking but i sure did enjoy that cigarette..
i've been in love with this cover for 5 years now and i haven't gotten over it. most beautiful cover ever with the most beautiful fingerpicking. still in love.
He really does make every song better, doesn't he?
he turns such a sensual song into a beautiful and tender one. frankly, i love both versions. amazing lyrics. x
Fuck. There is literally no words to describe his talent. The closest you'll get is just... fuck.
Yes maaate
keep your head up, keep your heart strong, keep your mind set ;)
you should consider becoming a poet
you better be excited for bens new album jack, up the round sheeeeeep
oh Ben Howard... you are just.. too heart melting... this cover is just so.... beautiful.
I know you may never see this but...
Thank you Ben.
I've had some really beautiful moments in my life with my girlfriend listening to your music.We are now split up but your songs take me back to a better place so...Thank you.
Hope your okay Rick :(((((
I know that feeling. same here
Same here my friend. Kinda living the moments again with his music. I miss the old times...i left my happiness there.
"keep your head up" always takes me back to memories of my ex. his music is very nostalgic in general but yes, i definitely agree with you all.
1 year on, i hope you’re doing well dude and have found someone or at least you’ve found peace. Good luck buddy.
I like how he randomly does his little smiles whilst singing, but seriously ben howard, you are perfect!
How could anyone dislike this.
What he's doing with that guitar + Lana's beautiful words= HEAVEN!!!
I think this may be the best cover I have ever heard. Tone of voice is amazing and guitar skills are spot on!
Listening to this at 1am. The perfect song for late night thinking
He makes every song he sings sound so meaningful. So much love for this guy. Amazing.
Fantastic.
His voice sounds so softly and gently. How can you not love him?
Ben Howard covers better than most original songs, in such a new creative way
Listening to his version I not only associate it with love for another but also platonic love - so much nostalgia in the guitar - playing n64 with my brother when we were kids and summer was endless. Brilliant Ben, would love to see this live in April

ben is really emotional and i love him and he is really attractive and oh
most annoying intro most beautiful cover
Son Goku to skip 0:15
true
that intro made me scared. i thought this was a safe space :'(
True the intro got me deaf lol
Lol u sure
this is my favorite cover of ANY song on the internet. simply because ben Howard is a genius
i've got chills... ben is just incredible
Nobody:
Me: watch omg covers from 8 years ago
Snap 😊
Same!
Same
Haha 2021
Totally 😂
I listen to this almost everday. it's such a beautiful take on a lana classic. Ben Howard is truly an artist.
His smile at 2:15 is fking awesome
I love Ben Howard, and not just because he's insanely talented - but look at how little smiles keep creeping across his face as he performs, it's clear that he loves, lives, and breathes the music. Now THAT is special.
Gorgeous
You can hear pieces of his own songs somehow in his cover!!!! absolutely legit!
Guy in the background on the phone -
"Whats that noise in the background?"
"Just Ben Howard, covering Lana Del Ray. No big deal."
this makes me melt
I love this man, so much emotion in every single song.
He definitely sounds like like Mrs.Doubtfire when he sings "I tell you all the time, dear."
YES OMG
BAHAHAHA OMG
HAHAHAHHAHAHAH
lol
Josh Burton LOLLLLLL
I have listened to this so many times yet I still can't get over how freaking amazing it is
His voice is life.
I love how he timidly starts smiling out of nowhere while singing, I love you Ben!
A voice I will never tire of x
Officially my wedding song- been listening to this song and this version for 12 years now and it will forever be in my memory
This has to be the most annoying intro on RUclips
You know that your life is great when you complain about stuff like commercials for a radio station recording videos for you that you can watch for free.
your*
Why do UK radio stations always have the most annoying DJs and intros?
@@DatZ0b it's not a commercial tho?
This cover is just perfection. The lyrics, his voice, the guitar - perfect.
how did i miss this? absolutely AWESOME!!!
STILL LOVING THIS SONG OMG!!!!!!! I wish Ben Howard would do a tour and sing this song 🥺🥺
1:10-1:20 just kills me every time. I love this man and his beautiful music.
You gotta be kidding me..are you telling you telling me there are people this talented out there?? This cover is outstanding!
Every cover he does is better than the original and his own songs are brilliant.
My two most favorite artists just in one video ❤️ can’t believe I have never seen this cover before
2021 still amazing
I ove how Ben covers other people's shit and does it waaaaay better. You're my bro, dude.
Love how he says " dear" Literally it makes me melt ! :O ....
You can see it in his eyes that "living for the fame" resonates for him in some peculiar way.
2:15
his smiles have been sent down from the heavens land. he is so beautiful and talented. unreal talent
THIS IS STILL MY FAVOURITE THING IN THE WORLD
I love coming back here ❤️
It’s been five years. An addiction or just coping mechanism?
Pretty sure it’s an addiction 😂
ben incredible as always!
He is pure gold. This is the first song I ever listened to that made me cry. Oh Ben
awh his voice is amazing
still cant stop listening to this song , thankyou.
holy crap it has been more then 4 years since this was released...i am starting to feel old :-( still amazing tho
8 years now. Feeling older?
I love those crazy tunings he plays in, and the awesome picking patterns! He makes everything unique!
He makes this sound like one of his songs it's so weird for me the entire vibe changed
I don’t know if many people notice but this version is so smooth and he’s really on time. Every time he flawlessly transitions, you can almost see him smile at how smooth and sweet it sounds.
Beautiful!
When I listen to him sing it gives me chills and then that cute little smile, ah what a beautiful creature
Why did I think he had s snake on his shoulder lol
He does
Probably heading for the birds nest
Hah me too!
I'm pretty sure I have listened to this song all day...over and over.
Lana Del Rey's songwriting is so good.
Tom Crossley i doubt she has written that song herself.
@@reflexivmusic why do you doubt it?
love his voice. its so calm
i prefer to listen to his live music, such a spectacle i cant wait for new stuff from him
Agreed.
He's just seemed to have disappeared.
:(
PARMZ z he's in hiding writing another masterpiece, don't worry he'll be back:)
I adore Ben, and I love the fact that he never goes through a song without smiling, even if it's just once. You can tell he's passionate about music, amazing.
I can't believe I only found this now, this is the best thing ever. One of my favourite singer covering one of my favourite songs.
loving the instrumental breakdown at the end...soo atmospheric...just brilliant!
aaaand somehow my pants just disappeared. wonder how that happened...
I've watched this 9 times today and I have no regrets..his version is so beautiful, and very deep, love it
And now I could see someone making that their wedding song. What the heck Ben. Be more perfect I dare you
i fall in love with his music every time
How is nobody talking about his guitar playing? I’m amazed by it
Same here
Ben Howard could cover any song in the world and make it just as amazing as this.
Perfect...
Ben Howard is the best acoustic singer i have EVER heard. He just GETS me!
it took me almost a minute to realise that the thing on his shoulder was nt a snake 😂😂
goosebumps...
Thank you Jamal and RIP :(
I'm so in love with his voice
I understand it's strange, but it's the way he completely reverses the style of the song to his own way, I love that.
One of the best covers I've had the pleasure of listening too.
This man has brilliant talent.
Still watching in 2018 ✌🏼
best cover I've heard so far
I am a huge Lana fan so I expected this to be rubbish... but proven wrong, brilliant stuff.. lovely interpretation! I hope Lana watched this..
+FragranceView Ben is quite a talent. Check his songs if you already haven't.
+FragranceView "I expected this to be rubbish" dont ever say that again when you re dealing with Ben freaking Howard
I'd never heard any of his music before...
I am now a fan :)
Welcome to the family ^-^
why would Ben Howard do a 'rubbish song'..?
I love how his music is so human, like there is no fake about it. So natural :D Love you Ben! :D
The first time I listened to this song was his cover. I honestly thought this was his song.
i have no idea how many times i've tries to learn the guitar, and failed. just another reason why ben is one of the best musicians alive.
