"Though my good days are far gone, They will surely come back one more, So I won't complain, no, no". This is exactly how we create hope, a string that helps us walk through all the uncertainties. Beautiful piece.
The world needs authentic poets like Clementine. I love your vibe and voice, thank you for breaking into my heart. Theres hope in this tragic sweet cesspool we call life.
Jade Haj They're plenty they just aren't famous. But here's a suggestion for you if you want more music similar to this. Check out Krizz Kaliko Stop the World if you haven't already.
This man makes me realize I don't need to strive for numbness to survive. I just need to breathe, feel my blood circulate and listen. All will right itself, or fade away.
You know that cliche “you need to live in the moment”? I think that’s it. Don’t worry about past? Don’t stress about future. Numbness is not making it easier. Kindness helped me. Showing kindness to others even when I felt rotten dead inside. But only when I truly did it without expecting, even jokingly, that someone will do that for me in the future. Now I am here, still sad, but I am here now.
i discovered this song 2 years ago when i was going through one of the toughest phases of my life. i was diagnosed with severe depression before, got the help i needed and had made a pact with myself that ill never let myself go back to that place. So when this tough time came, this song was my saving grace, played it every morning. it reminded me not to give up but have hope, it gets better! and it did! mostly because i refused to complain!! dont dwell on the wrongs in your life, celebrate the good, focus on those, hope for better and EVERYDAY take small steps towards that "better." im not where i want to be yet,i dont have all i want or need, im struggling through this life thing just like the next person, but I WONT COMPLAIN coz surely, there are good days ahead. Thank you Benjamin :)
This track and condolence is just such powerful music. Like having a big brother of sorts lookin out for ya or somethin. Just amazing how impactful it can be.
Lyrics: Its a wonderful life, its a wonderful life Traversed in tears from the heavens My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact Set alight by echoes of pain 24-7, 24-7 I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry You might not say that its a wonderful world And its a wonderful life And its a wonderful day Just as yesterday But I wont complain No I wont complain Though my good days are far gone They will surely come back one morn So I wont complain, no, no My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me And for those who hate me, the more you hate me The more you help me And for those who love me, the more you love me The more you hurt me When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back And although I don't understand my dreams I know somewhere There is hope, theres is hope, somewhere there is hope I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry You might not say that its a wonderful world And its a wonderful life And its a wonderful day Just as yesterday But I wont, complain I wont complain no, no, No, no, no, no, no No, no, no, no, no I won't complain, no I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They will surely come back one morn So I won't, I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They will surely come back one morn So I won't, I won't complain

“My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me.” I felt that. The pain in his voice is palpable throughout. Everything about this is a work of art.
This is deep! It's creativity at its peak. This guy is great. Oh, my goodness. This song has taken me somewhere that I can't even explain. Thank you, Clementine.
love you man. Been following you since you were homeless, so glad youve been recognized. As someone with all the homeless and half the talent - god bless you
"I see some children in the lightFighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back" this just broke me... I keep remember the children that my mom lost before I was born, my sisters... shadows behind my mother's back... great, powerful, beautiful music...
Thank you algorithm for making me remember of Benjamin Clementine. I used to love his music back in 2017 but switching from Apple music to Spotify made me forget about some really loved artists like him and I’ve kept listening to the same 40 songs over and over again over the past 7 years. I feel so blessed now (I’m neurodivergent, I think that’s the reason why I keep forgetting about important things if I don’t write them down)
It's a wonderful life, a wonderful life Traversed in tears from the heavens My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact Set alight by echoes of pain 24/7, 24/7 I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry You might not say that it's a wonderful world And it's a wonderful life And it's a wonderful day Just as yesterday But I won't complain No, I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They'll surely come back one more So I won't complain, no no My mind is a mirror A reflection only known to me And for those who hate me, the more you hate me, the more you help me And those who love me, the more you love me, the more you hurt me When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back And although I don't understand my dreams I know somewhere There's hope, there is hope, somewhere There's hope I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry You might not say that it's a wonderful world And it's a wonderful life And it's a wonderful day Just as yesterday But I won't complain I won't complain, no no Brr no, brr no, I won't complain , no I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They'll surely come back one more So I won't, I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They'll surely come back one morn So I won't, I won't complain
6 years listening to this masterpiece at least at least once per week. Shivers all the time, tears rushing through my eyes most of the times. This guy is like Nina Simone reincarnated as a man. And coming from me as a huge Nina fan, that's probably the best compliment I am capable of. Keep going. There are singers, there are artists and there are geniuses that come maybe once every decade. You are one of the latter.
Just discovered him cause someone said in certain parts of me singing I sound like him. I don't hear it at all but so glad I looked him up. Definitely will be listening to more of his songs, and this is the first song I heard from him an it hits home so much since losing my daughter an it feels like all my good days are gone but I'm having faith that I will genuinely smile again and I will get a good day again
I was wondering if I would find Gorillaz fans here :-) I found out about him previously through NPR and was pleasantly surprised when I first heard 'Hallelujah Money'
"My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me. And for those who hate me, the more you hate me, the more you help me. And for those who love me, the more you love me, the more you hurt me"
"and for those Who hate me the more you hate me the more you help me, and those Who love me the more you love me the more you hurt me" ✨ Sei un musicista immenso, grazie.
"But I won't complain, no I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They will surely come back one morn' So I won't complain" Beautiful message for this hard times...
I saw you in the subway in Paris a long time ago, i am sure it was you. you left me strong impression. I am happy seeing you met the success that you deserve
cette chanson nous met tellement dans un pensée nostalgique... je ferme les yeux, je repense à beaucoup de choses.. ..des bons moments comme des plus mauvais, l'ensemble de tous ça me fait monter les larmes, je pleure, je regrette des choses, je me pose des questions, je relativise, je suis content... je sèche mes larmes, je me relève, je me sent mieux, je me remet à ce que j'étais entrain de faire, la vie continue. .... ce moment à moi m'a fait du bien. des fois on a juste besoin d'un petit moment d'égarement pour faire le vide. ça dure peu de temps mais qu'est ce que ça fait du bien ! je me sens revigoré, motivé, envie de se battre pour la vie, évincer cette maladie !!! ...finalement les choses les plus simples sont souvent les meilleures....
I've listened to so much music of all genres, all the most emotional films scores you could imagine and to this day, this is the only track that has ever brought me to tears. More than once.
I was looking for the lyrics, but I didn't find a comment so here we go! It's a wonderful life, its a wonderful life Traversed in tears from the heavens My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact Set alight by echoes of pain twenty-four seven, twenty-four seven I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry You might not say that it's a wonderful world And it's a wonderful life, and it's a wonderful day Just as yesterday But I won't complain, no I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They will surely come back one morn' So I wont complain My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me And for those who hate me, the more you hate me The more you help me And for those who love me, the more you love me The more you hurt me When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back And although I don't understand my dreams I know somewhere, there is hope, there's hope, there is hope I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry You might not say that it's a wonderful world And it's a wonderful life, and it's a wonderful day Just as yesterday But I won't complain, no I won't complain No no no no No no no no No I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They will surely come back one morn' So I won't complain Though my good days are far gone They will surely come back one morn' So I won't complain I won't complain
He released a second album and toured this album last year with a string quintet. It was incredible. He updates his Instagram now and then with his work in development but I think he’s had a family so has stepped back from music for a while!
By driving home on a rainy night i heard this song on the radio and i flipped out because it hit me so hard with the beauty of it and afraid of not knowing who he was i put my car on the side put shazam on and find this incredable artist ! what a Talent !!
There are some people who don't just create music, they inhibit them. Their music is them, but viewed from a million perspectives. And each perspective is beautiful. It is my misfortune to have discovered him so late, but I am glad I did and to say it's a masterpiece is an understatement. The video, the music. The instrumentals and his vocals. The lyrics, the damn class. Perfection
This music video is a true masterpiece! The imagery perfectly captures the essence of the song, and the choreography is mesmerizing. The attention to detail is impressive, and it's clear that a lot of thought and effort went into creating this visual experience. Absolutely stunning!"
Superb voice , his creativity knows no bounds - pure talent! His songs are on many a play list of mine and as soon as I hear the first note, I just stop what I am doing and listen transfixed, transcended elsewhere ....... Sign of a true artist, keep it up my good man! Thank you
Born into an age of dirt, we stood atop a lonely tower, watching as the spring fell and winter rose, the warm breath of tomorrow's birth, the cold breeze of days past, feeding a mind of mad daze and broken dreams.. where to find peace but within, where to find love, but within? Oh hear this young mind; the world wants only chance, chance of love, chance of life, chance of change. Dangling from atop the earth is a blackness only described as such, tricked by the Spaces far from the minds clutch, beauty bound purely to thought's, our universe was made for you. - Eternal
Benjamin grazie per le emozioni che doni con le tue canzoni e la tua musica È una vita meravigliosa, è una vita meravigliosa Attraversato in lacrime dal cielo Il mio cuore è un melodramma, un melodramma appunto Acceso da echi di dolore 24-7, 24-7 Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango potresti non dire che è un mondo meraviglioso Ed è una vita meravigliosa Ed è una giornata meravigliosa Proprio come ieri Ma non mi lamenterò No, non mi lamenterò Anche se i miei bei giorni sono lontani Torneranno sicuramente un altro Quindi non mi lamenterò, no, no La mia mente è uno specchio, un riflesso noto solo a me E per chi mi odia, più mi odi Più mi aiuti E per chi mi ama, più mi ami Più mi fai del male E quando vado a letto la notte, vedo dei bambini nella luce Combattendo ombre sconosciute alle spalle di mia madre anche se non capisco i miei sogni, so da qualche parte C'è speranza, c'è speranza, da qualche parte c'è speranza Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango Potresti non dire che è un mondo meraviglioso Ed è una vita meravigliosa Ed è una giornata meravigliosa Proprio come ieri Ma non mi lamenterò Non mi lamenterò, no, no Drrr, no, rrr, no, no, non mi lamenterò No, non mi lamenterò Anche se i miei bei giorni sono lontani Torneranno sicuramente un altro Quindi non lo farò, non mi lamenterò anche se i miei bei giorni sono lontani Torneranno sicuramente un altro Quindi non lo farò, non mi lamenterò.
My dance company did a contemporary dance to this masterpiece, and seeing it for the first time, I was speechless. Music is one of the reasons I dance and this song made me want to express myself the way they did. Made me want to make people feel the way I did. Thank you, for making me feel your art.
After 43 years of age I found your music and work very professional and special. There are depth under piano tones and your voice. Perfect match I would say. When I'm looking your videos something happens. Like I'm living my own life. Well done and please continue to build the parallel world we are all living ;-)
This is just perfect in every single aspect. There is poetry in all details, from lyrics, music and video. A complete work of art. A contemporary masterpiece! I’m still in catharsis watching it by 5th time in a row. Damn! Why didn’t I find this tremendous artist before???
This is one of the BEST pieces of REAL ART I've seen in such a long time. Thank you, this music is really helping my spirit at the moment, even tho it is sad: It is what is. There's Hope. GOD BLESS YOU.
"Though my good days are far gone, They will surely come back one more, So I won't complain, no, no". This is exactly how we create hope, a string that helps us walk through all the uncertainties. Beautiful piece.
Hope
Is no good
Damn hope
I don't know how the universe brought this to me but it's a precious gift.
Thank you 🌹
The world needs authentic poets like Clementine. I love your vibe and voice, thank you for breaking into my heart. Theres hope in this tragic sweet cesspool we call life.

This man makes me realize I don't need to strive for numbness to survive. I just need to breathe, feel my blood circulate and listen. All will right itself, or fade away.
You know that cliche “you need to live in the moment”? I think that’s it. Don’t worry about past? Don’t stress about future. Numbness is not making it easier. Kindness helped me.

You can do it!
Thank YOU for this comment. ❤️
the moment you realize 2 seconds in that you discovered a stunning & remarkable musician
2 fucking seconds and I paused this to download his discography.
Yes
OMG, yes!
Do you guys know any other songs like this?
The song is beautiful but damn can we appreciate the video creativity? Feels like I entered someone's dream.
Marina M yes
Kind of mood 👀
Yes! Am I the only one who thinks this feels like a AHS commercial
Harrison Schmitt but thats the sense of this song! I love it
France has wonderful artists.
Lyrics:
Its a wonderful life, its a wonderful life
Traversed in tears from the heavens
My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact
Set alight by echoes of pain 24-7, 24-7
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
You might not say that its a wonderful world
And its a wonderful life
And its a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
But I wont complain
No I wont complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I wont complain, no, no
My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me
And for those who hate me, the more you hate me
The more you help me
And for those who love me, the more you love me
The more you hurt me
When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light
Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back
And although I don't understand my dreams I know somewhere
There is hope, theres is hope, somewhere there is hope
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
You might not say that its a wonderful world
And its a wonderful life
And its a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
But I wont, complain
I wont complain no, no,
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no I won't complain, no I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't, I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't, I won't complain

Thank u ♡
Thanks!
Sorry to be that guy, but it’s actually a melodrum, not mellow drum
“My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me.” I felt that. The pain in his voice is palpable throughout. Everything about this is a work of art.
So melodic, melancholic, inner mind, talented, and beautiful in all details. Great job! So vivid!
Teacherrrrr s2222
I agree, Danilo!!
And then, in a world full of ' artists ' and ´ performers' he, Benjamin, brought music back. Just that.
Ben, Jidenna and Stromae. They are incredible! Proud African here :)
This song never reaches the crescendo you want it to...that seems to be the point. Amazing.
I’ve never subscribed so fast. A voice I’d never expect to hear and I’m so blessed by this song
This is exactly what the industry has been lacking for a long time.
I think the problem is music has become an industry
@@BB-nd1rp exactly
This is anti-industry
This is deep! It's creativity at its peak. This guy is great. Oh, my goodness. This song has taken me somewhere that I can't even explain. Thank you, Clementine.
this masterpiece brings me so much hope, joy and healing
love you man. Been following you since you were homeless, so glad youve been recognized. As someone with all the homeless and half the talent - god bless you
"I see some children in the lightFighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back" this just broke me... I keep remember the children that my mom lost before I was born, my sisters... shadows behind my mother's back... great, powerful, beautiful music...

So many hearts for this man and his music. Profound, beautiful, poetic. Bravo.
This is such a beaufiful translation of what it is to
struggle with depression. Thank everything for you and your poetic expression
"And for those who hate me, the more you hate me the more you help me. And those who love me, the more you love me the more you hurt me." Catchy!
How Can a person, alone with him self, just with his piano and his voice, singing and acting, how can it be so magnificent?!
It's a wonderful life, a wonderful life
Traversed in tears from the heavens

So I won't, I won't complain
It's "my heart is a mellow drum" actually
@@terryjones573 Thanks!
I dream. I smile, I woke, I cry
Thank you 👍
This song is helping me through depression at the moment.
I am going through hell right now wish the world can help me.
Espero todo mejore, y no habló de las circunstancias, si no, más bien de la mente y espíritu que es lo que enrrealidad importa

I agreee!!! Absolutely beautiful!! xx
Duhh you should use E instead of I in your name like I do but no I won’t complain
Just discovered him cause someone said in certain parts of me singing I sound like him. I don't hear it at all but so glad I looked him up. Definitely will be listening to more of his songs, and this is the first song I heard from him an it hits home so much since losing my daughter an it feels like all my good days are gone but I'm having faith that I will genuinely smile again and I will get a good day again
Imagine if this kind of creativity was found in some short film...gosh capturing life from different places filled with silence and creativity.
Damn. I'm so happy that Damon exposed me to this guy's brilliance because I never would've known about him. This is incredible.
I was wondering if I would find Gorillaz fans here :-) I found out about him previously through NPR and was pleasantly surprised when I first heard 'Hallelujah Money'
Dereck Gutierrez Yeah he's incredible ! Thanks to Damon.
Dereck Gutierrez when i saw damon, i mistook it for damon salvatore in the vampire diaries.
Dereck Gutierrez same gorillaz has really exposed me to some AMAZING Artists like I can't express it enough
It's been a long long long time since music touched my soul so deeply. Thank you.
Every time I come back here to listen and sing along, tears stream down my face. This is such a BEAUTIFUL song.
Thank you algorithm for this song 🙏🏿✨
Simply beautiful. How refreshing to hear an artist revel in their uniqueness rather than become an imitation of whatever’s popular? Bravo!
Exactly!!! ✨
my goodness, this is wonderful. what a beautiful man.
MSAZgreen Yes!! BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL INCREDIBLE HUMAN🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
Wow... The Piano Is just amazing and Your Voice... Wow! I have no words . Thank You Sir for this song.
"My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me.
And for those who hate me, the more you hate me, the more you help me.
And for those who love me, the more you love me, the more you hurt me"
"and for those Who hate me the more you hate me the more you help me, and those Who love me the more you love me the more you hurt me" ✨
Sei un musicista immenso, grazie.
"But I won't complain, no I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn'
So I won't complain"
Beautiful message for this hard times...
This was an act of God. I clicked on this video by accident, and I'm so happy I did. Beautiful!!!
Lol same thing happened to me
Same I was on Ariana grande and miles Cyrus singing together then pressed on this 😹😹
+4cutekids omg the exact same thing happened to me!
Adam Rech HALLELUJAH! (Get the joke?)
More like a lucky move of your finger?
I saw you in the subway in Paris a long time ago, i am sure it was you. you left me strong impression. I am happy seeing you met the success that you deserve
cette chanson nous met tellement dans un pensée nostalgique... je ferme les yeux, je repense à beaucoup de choses.. ..des bons moments comme des plus mauvais, l'ensemble de tous ça me fait monter les larmes, je pleure, je regrette des choses, je me pose des questions, je relativise, je suis content... je sèche mes larmes, je me relève, je me sent mieux, je me remet à ce que j'étais entrain de faire, la vie continue. .... ce moment à moi m'a fait du bien. des fois on a juste besoin d'un petit moment d'égarement pour faire le vide. ça dure peu de temps mais qu'est ce que ça fait du bien ! je me sens revigoré, motivé, envie de se battre pour la vie, évincer cette maladie !!! ...finalement les choses les plus simples sont souvent les meilleures....
bien dit!!!👍👍👍👍👍
ça c'est du talent
Je suis tombé dessus par hasard....je ressens pareil
C'est exactement ça
I've listened to so much music of all genres, all the most emotional films scores you could imagine and to this day, this is the only track that has ever brought me to tears. More than once.
Me too
OMG! Jean Michel Basquiat came back to life as a singer 😱. The somewhat physical resemblance, the creativity. Simply beautiful, beautiful music. Wow!
Best music video I've watched since Woodkid's wonderful trilogy. And, as for the singer -- I am an in awe!
this is the masterpiece... grotesque but so... beautiful. Felt death from every scene but so alive... just love it !
Beautiful song, beautiful video
grotesque. senseless Murders are grotesque, bad use of English.
This guy is so good live, saw him in munich and I think it will be my favorite concert ever. His humor is as good as his music!
When RUclips recommends a song you've never heard before that has you in tears within two minutes
Definitely 🙂💕

I was looking for the lyrics, but I didn't find a comment so here we go!
It's a wonderful life, its a wonderful life
Traversed in tears from the heavens
My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact
Set alight by echoes of pain twenty-four seven, twenty-four seven
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
You might not say that it's a wonderful world
And it's a wonderful life, and it's a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
But I won't complain, no I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn'
So I wont complain
My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me
And for those who hate me, the more you hate me
The more you help me
And for those who love me, the more you love me
The more you hurt me
When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light
Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back
And although I don't understand my dreams
I know somewhere, there is hope, there's hope, there is hope
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
You might not say that it's a wonderful world
And it's a wonderful life, and it's a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
But I won't complain, no I won't complain
No no no no
No no no no
No I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn'
So I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn'
So I won't complain
I won't complain
Thank you
Thank you 💜✨
Thank you!
Agapé 🌹
I dream I smile, I woke I cry.. Only makes sense.. Thank you for this
"At least for now" is a cracking album and should be in your collection. A very talented gentleman .
I wish he'd come back. He's so talented, and weird and wonderful.
Where did he go to?
Where is he
He released a second album and toured this album last year with a string quintet. It was incredible. He updates his Instagram now and then with his work in development but I think he’s had a family so has stepped back from music for a while!
@@gemma3924 I'm happy to hear that. I have to see him live.
This is true *A* *R* *T* !!!
His voice, the visuals, all of the creativity is so captivating. My god...♥️
Remember watching him live for the first time and cry my eyes out listening to this song. So brutal and raw. What a show.
Thank you algorithm for bringing me here… This song is one of the most beautiful things I’ve heard in a long time.
Not to be That person but this is Genuine music with real emotion and symbolism behind it. We need more of this these days.
By driving home on a rainy night i heard this song on the radio and i flipped out because it hit me so hard with the beauty of it and afraid of not knowing who he was i put my car on the side put shazam on and find this incredable artist ! what a Talent !!
Thanks to Shazam😅
The song is so profound! Also, his cheekbones are EPIC!
This is exactly what we need! Better than most of what's out there today in my opinion. Criminally underrated
There are some people who don't just create music, they inhibit them. Their music is them, but viewed from a million perspectives. And each perspective is beautiful. It is my misfortune to have discovered him so late, but I am glad I did and to say it's a masterpiece is an understatement. The video, the music. The instrumentals and his vocals. The lyrics, the damn class. Perfection
I was searching for a voice like your voice to listening and feel the life again. Thank you by your art my friend
There is hope, theres is hope, somewhere there is hope
I didnt hear this song with my ears. I felt this song in my soul.
This music video is a true masterpiece! The imagery perfectly captures the essence of the song, and the choreography is mesmerizing. The attention to detail is impressive, and it's clear that a lot of thought and effort went into creating this visual experience. Absolutely stunning!"
Best RUclips new suggestion in a while. Glad to discover this masterpiece.
I’m in awe of his voice! This song is gorgeous. The lyrics, his talent is beyond stunning! Just wow! Love him
The whole production is Beautiful and of course, Benjamin Clementine's voice!
Unique, creative, just pure lovely
Superb voice , his creativity knows no bounds - pure talent! His songs are on many a play list of mine and as soon as I hear the first note, I just stop what I am doing and listen transfixed, transcended elsewhere ....... Sign of a true artist, keep it up my good man! Thank you
That bone structure.
Fits perfectly with the voice.
That's what busking in the streets of Paris does to you ..
Born into an age of dirt,
we stood atop a lonely tower,
watching as the spring fell and winter rose,
the warm breath of tomorrow's birth,
the cold breeze of days past,
feeding a mind of mad daze and broken dreams..
where to find peace but within,
where to find love, but within?
Oh hear this young mind; the world wants only chance,
chance of love, chance of life, chance of change.
Dangling from atop the earth is a blackness only described as such,
tricked by the Spaces far from the minds clutch,
beauty bound purely to thought's, our universe was made for you.
- Eternal
Grand_Opus that poem is amazing. Who wrote it? Is Eternal the artist? Or is this yours? It makes me wanna put it to music!
He's so handsome ! Look at those cheek bones & those features he's honestly just stunning ! 🥀
I'm a straight guy and you what???
I won't complain...
This song saved my life a few years ago, I'm forever grateful to have come across it.
Benjamin grazie per le emozioni che doni con le tue canzoni e la tua musica
È una vita meravigliosa, è una vita meravigliosa
Attraversato in lacrime dal cielo
Il mio cuore è un melodramma, un melodramma appunto
Acceso da echi di dolore 24-7, 24-7
Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango
Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango
potresti non dire che è un mondo meraviglioso
Ed è una vita meravigliosa
Ed è una giornata meravigliosa
Proprio come ieri
Ma non mi lamenterò
No, non mi lamenterò
Anche se i miei bei giorni sono lontani
Torneranno sicuramente un altro
Quindi non mi lamenterò, no, no
La mia mente è uno specchio, un riflesso noto solo a me
E per chi mi odia, più mi odi
Più mi aiuti
E per chi mi ama, più mi ami
Più mi fai del male
E quando vado a letto la notte, vedo dei bambini nella luce
Combattendo ombre sconosciute alle spalle di mia madre
anche se non capisco i miei sogni, so da qualche parte
C'è speranza, c'è speranza, da qualche parte c'è speranza
Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango
Sogno, sorrido, cammino, piango
Potresti non dire che è un mondo meraviglioso
Ed è una vita meravigliosa
Ed è una giornata meravigliosa
Proprio come ieri
Ma non mi lamenterò
Non mi lamenterò, no, no
Drrr, no, rrr, no, no, non mi lamenterò
No, non mi lamenterò
Anche se i miei bei giorni sono lontani
Torneranno sicuramente un altro
Quindi non lo farò, non mi lamenterò
anche se i miei bei giorni sono lontani
Torneranno sicuramente un altro
Quindi non lo farò, non mi lamenterò.
How on earth am I just now learning about this phenomenal poet, composition, performer? Much ♥️ from this grandmother in Annapolis!
2024 anyone?
Hey
Here
We still!!
Yes, from Portugal ❤
You know it
How the hell did this madness of awesome just pop up on my feed after 3 years!? This is powerful!
So it's been five years now and I'm just seeing it 😭
I just discover him & I can't breath. He's out of this world..
My dance company did a contemporary dance to this masterpiece, and seeing it for the first time, I was speechless. Music is one of the reasons I dance and this song made me want to express myself the way they did. Made me want to make people feel the way I did. Thank you, for making me feel your art.
Same for me but this is the song for our auditions a small group my sister was in did do cornerstone by him
Such a powerful verse...'' The more you love me, the more you hurt me.''
I am not worthy. This is too much. Its touches the core of my soul and make me forget gravity exist.
Now this is ART .
I'm so glad for hidden RUclips treasures like this one, that make my day way better
That piano is awe-inspiring specimen 🙏🔥
After 43 years of age I found your music and work very professional and special. There are depth under piano tones and your voice. Perfect match I would say. When I'm looking your videos something happens. Like I'm living my own life. Well done and please continue to build the parallel world we are all living ;-)
As someone going through depression, no other song has ever hit this hard.
This is just excellence. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
A song with golden lyrics
a rarity, a gem in the dust.
This is just perfect in every single aspect. There is poetry in all details, from lyrics, music and video. A complete work of art. A contemporary masterpiece! I’m still in catharsis watching it by 5th time in a row. Damn! Why didn’t I find this tremendous artist before???
This is one of the BEST pieces of REAL ART I've seen in such a long time. Thank you, this music is really helping my spirit at the moment, even tho it is sad: It is what is. There's Hope. GOD BLESS YOU.
Wonderful compositions. Gorgeous orchestrations. Lyrics and vocals exquisite and unique.
Thanx you bro! You touched my heart...
I am georgian...We love nice music!!!!
One of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard.
Wonderful VOICE, Deep, Dark and Magical, thanks for Sharing this beautiful Gift with us!! I'm speechless 🤗🤗
