2024 and still listening to these amazing BBC Radio 1 shows! Always love listening to Ben Howard. Music therapy at it's finest. It's a good time to be alive. #Grateful
I'm definitely fanboying here...But I honestly just think that a lot of people that come across Ben Howard on the Music Scene really don't get just how genius and beautiful his music is. There is just so much depth and emotion into EVERYTHING he sings, it's not seen anywhere else and he puts more passion into what he does than iv'e probably heard anywhere else....It's just crazy beautiful and I'm not just talking about this but everything else...I thank him everyday for his beautiful music
I don't think I have seen anyone else cover an original song, make it thier own and play it better.. but it's like he does it unpretentious, like most wont see it unless you stay and 'listen'. Just incredible.
Agree 100%. My only conflict is if I should tell other people about him. As much as I want him to be successful and get what he deserves, I don't want to ruin what makes him special by going mainstream.
I've listened to this song an unhealthy amount of times. It never gets old. I could probably listen to it on a loop (literally like the number 8) until I take my last breath. I. Love. It. Seriously.
+iMertin I listen to him in all moods and have done so for 5 years now hah. But yeah, when I feel down and listen to his darker stuff. Takes me to the darkest place possible, but I kind of like that kind of suffering in some weird way.

It would be nice- Easy money maker for them, too bad it’s all about streaming… albums were something… play in the order and arrangement it was made. When albums had a story, when albums went from one song to the next- (Every Kingdom by Ben Howard- check out also Motopony self titled first album- I swear by it- so beautiful) Now a days some things just seem soooo choppy- cos it’s not for an album, it’s to be heard that day, upload it- stream it- link it- like it- : ) #loveyourneighbor2021
Ben Howard's voice is so hypnotically relaxing, amazing cover of a great song. Good job! =D Its about time for both Ellie and Ben to collaborate towards one awesome original song, their voices together would make for some eargasmic listening material...
I Just love this. I hadn't heard the Ellie Goulding original but listened to it out of interest. I am amazed by what Ben and his band have done with it. Pure musical genius....what a superb version this is. The guy is pure class. Cannot stop listening to his stuff. Totally hooked.
You must be kidding! That is the sickest version of that song that will probably ever exist! I had to watch it at least a dozen times to see everything that was going on instrumentally. Truly unreal. Goulding has a beautiful unique voice but she ain't no Ben Howard.
How does one man have so much talent? He is absolute treasure and a breath of fresh air for the music industry! In other interviews he shows that he doesn't care about the fame of the music industry and in the two shows I've been lucky enough to see him at it is obvious he cares about the music and the fans and that is it. I'm lucky to have encountered him in my lifetime. Long Live Ben Howard and the band.
WOW! what a great job! I absolutely love it when India comes in at 4.06....oh my word....simply breath taking! and the 10 or 15 secs that follows. Ben Howard is great....but India's backup vocals are DELICIOUS!!!
Nice to see India getting some much deserved recognition. This girl plays percussion, guitar, and other instruments too. Beautiful voice I cant get enough and a smile that melts me everytime. What a talent
Breathe your smoke into my lungs, In the back of a car with you I stare into the sun, Still not too old to die young, But lovers hold on to everything, And lovers hold on to anything I chase your love around a figure 8, I need you more than I can take, You promise forever and a day, And then you take it all away, And then you take it all away Place a kiss on my cheekbone, When you vanish me, I'm buried in the snow, But something tells me I'm not alone, But lovers hold on to everything, And lovers hold on to anything I chase your love around a figure 8, I need you more than I can take, You promise forever and a day, And then you take it all away, And then you take it all away So lovers hold on to everything, And lovers hold on to anything, So lovers hold on to everything, And lovers hold on to anything I chase your love around a figure 8, I need you more than I can take, You promise forever and a day, And then you take it all away, I chase your love around a figure 8, I need you more than I can take, You promise forever and a day, And then you take it all away, And then you take it all away
this is exactly what I always think of when I hear Ben play. I was always wondering which artists I'd had to tell my children about, like my mom and dad told me about the beatles and queen etc, and now I finally found one.
Omg he sang so well and mixed the two songs it blended into one, it almost seems like a one original perfect piece. I'm glad that Ellie Goulding version exists so I can understand this better.
All music in my opinion should be listened to on good headphones / sound systems. It's amazing to see what money can buy in the home theater world too, you will think you know songs until you hear them on a sick system.
i first heard Ben's cover & then Ellie's orignial song. i have to say that the cover is WAY BETTER than the original!! so smooth & melodic. awesome artist!
I agree. I don't know how in the world anybody could say he has a "disgusting voice" - it's incredibly unique and textured. It has so much depth and soul.
Awesome yet again...he changes the vibe of this song completely and it works! Stunning and awesome live lounge!! Can't wait till I see Ben and the band again live! True talent!
This is the best piece of music I have heard in a long while. I have no idea what the Ellie Goulding version sounds like, and to be honest I daren't listen; I would assume it wouldn't even come close to this. Can't believe I've only just discovered this guy, but my goodness am I grateful I did. Also, if India would care to marry me, that would be just fine. All of the live videos I have seen of theirs are fantastic - must get myself along to a show soon. Well done Devon!
Ben's voice is simply breath taking. I have never found an artist where I cry in joy at their music but ever since I saw Ben live and hearing perfect, flawless covers like this really pushes my emotions over the edge. Never stop making music, please! Also, India is stunning.

2024 anyone
2024 and still listening to these amazing BBC Radio 1 shows! Always love listening to Ben Howard. Music therapy at it's finest. It's a good time to be alive. #Grateful
The moment India comes in.......how delicate is her tone, Ben is the leading from the front as always. The whole arrangement is on another level.
This makes me wish Ben Howard would make a full lenght record with just creative covers like this
This expanded my life expectancy by 2 years
Who's still watching the almighty Ben Howard in 2020?!
I will never stop watching the almighty Ben Howard
Of course
Forever,y fav artist, bwethoven of folk music
Listening to the almighty Ben Howard is a spiritual awakening each and every time.
Meeeeee...!!!!!!
wow incredible! Love how he drops in Little Dragon - Twice into the cover blend, turns the whole thing into a musical masterpiece all of its own.
I'm definitely fanboying here...But I honestly just think that a lot of people that come across Ben Howard on the Music Scene really don't get just how genius and beautiful his music is. There is just so much depth and emotion into EVERYTHING he sings, it's not seen anywhere else and he puts more passion into what he does than iv'e probably heard anywhere else....It's just crazy beautiful and I'm not just talking about this but everything else...I thank him everyday for his beautiful music
Mozart /beethoven of folk music. Mans a fn genius
TheMinarus Try Matt Maeson, I like Nelsonwood Lane. If you haven’t yet heard him?
His arrangements of hit song covers are second to none
exactly !
I don't think I have seen anyone else cover an original song, make it thier own and play it better.. but it's like he does it unpretentious, like most wont see it unless you stay and 'listen'. Just incredible.
@@mrmcclintock534 he’s up there, I’m becoming a big fan of his but James Arthur’s covers are on another level
How about Johnny Cash?
I keep forgetting he didn't write the songs I know him best for.
This guy is just phenomenal. I cannot get over how good he is at what he does
Agree 100%. My only conflict is if I should tell other people about him. As much as I want him to be successful and get what he deserves, I don't want to ruin what makes him special by going mainstream.
Reza Garrow Going mainstream? You realise this is on BBC Radio 1 Live lounge right?
+Reza Garrow lol good theory
+SEEMENOW NOWSEEME Ben is FAR from mainstream since his second album!!
I've listened to this song an unhealthy amount of times. It never gets old. I could probably listen to it on a loop (literally like the number 8) until I take my last breath. I. Love. It. Seriously.
Has the same effect on me!
He's unreal. But when you feel dark he can make it very dark if you get me lol
+iMertin I listen to him in all moods and have done so for 5 years now hah. But yeah, when I feel down and listen to his darker stuff. Takes me to the darkest place possible, but I kind of like that kind of suffering in some weird way.
Neliith yeah i feel the same both ways but i was just pointing out the feel i cant when he takes you dark
I heard it a couple years ago but waiiiiiited till today to download it because I am going to wear it out!
Who's still watching the almighty Ben Howard in 2022?!
Always!
2023 here
Can’t stay away and listen 10 times in a row 😕
Ben and India are like a dream team.
Not often a cover is better than the original but hats off to Ben and team have pulled it off here.
BBC needs to make an album for their live lounge sessions so I can listen to this gem whenever I please
They Do? I can only assume this was a joke???
They do.....

The way he composes covers gives me goosebumps.
He's got a real gift for interpretation.
This guy is out of this world.
So good...
Why has this not reached 1 million hits yet? It's my favourite Live Lounge performance and the masses deserve to see it.
what an absolute legend. LOVE Ellie's original, but this is just mind-blowing
Ben Howard's voice is so hypnotically relaxing, amazing cover of a great song. Good job! =D
Its about time for both Ellie and Ben to collaborate towards one awesome original song, their voices together would make for some eargasmic listening material...
OMG this song is perfection
Seen him live 4 times, absolutely amazing every time
I Just love this. I hadn't heard the Ellie Goulding original but listened to it out of interest. I am amazed by what Ben and his band have done with it. Pure musical genius....what a superb version this is. The guy is pure class. Cannot stop listening to his stuff. Totally hooked.
Same here :)
I thought this was an amazing cover until India started to sing Twice across... It then became epic!!
I know right?!?!? It's brilliant! I can't stop going back to 4.06....
He makes you feel emotions you never knew you had!
this version is literally one of my favourite songs of all time
Those harmonics are so flawless! also love the way Ben and India share the lyrics on 'Twice'. So nice!
Love this! India's voice is so good!!
Listening in 2019. Going to listen in 2020.
You must be kidding! That is the sickest version of that song that will probably ever exist! I had to watch it at least a dozen times to see everything that was going on instrumentally. Truly unreal. Goulding has a beautiful unique voice but she ain't no Ben Howard.
Perfectly put
The master of reinvention.
And he mixed Twice by Little Dragon into the song! :) Brilliant!
Another incredible cover from Ben and the band
How does one man have so much talent? He is absolute treasure and a breath of fresh air for the music industry! In other interviews he shows that he doesn't care about the fame of the music industry and in the two shows I've been lucky enough to see him at it is obvious he cares about the music and the fans and that is it. I'm lucky to have encountered him in my lifetime. Long Live Ben Howard and the band.
Ahh coming back to listen again. Such a melancholy and haunting interpretation of the Goulding track.
I have watched this so many times and cannot get enough :)
Lovely, just lovely ❤
Best live lounge there ever was!!! Ben you are incredible! We are blessed
Truly delicious music !!!!! X
WOW! what a great job! I absolutely love it when India comes in at 4.06....oh my word....simply breath taking! and the 10 or 15 secs that follows. Ben Howard is great....but India's backup vocals are DELICIOUS!!!
Nice to see India getting some much deserved recognition. This girl plays percussion, guitar, and other instruments too. Beautiful voice I cant get enough and a smile that melts me everytime. What a talent
Best live lounge ever. That distorted Chris Issac sounding guitar sound in the background is just insane 🔥🔥🔥
His Call Me Maybe cover is great.
Goosebumps!! Love this SO much. Musicians truly enjoying every moment of their craft. Fantastic version!
Most moving performer I have ever seen, so so much better live. Love you Ben!!
At the point when India comes over the top of him on the last verse it just takes the song to levels unimaginable.
I was looking for a comment like this...
Love her voice and it sounds so good with Ben's... Love there connection😬
Mitchell Brown still living for that part man, incredible!
Yep, thought this myself 3 years ago, still thinking it now!
I just love all of his songs, covers lyrics, guitar skills- just everything, he's perfect😌👌
This song can last forever. And then you take it away. Then you take it all away.
Not often songs are better than the original but wow this was another level. AWESUM
This is beyond beautiful. His voice is amazing
And hers!!
Still listening this on 2022🙌🏻
I just!!! i cant even!!!! Amazing as always!
2022 still listening. Miss this Ben Howard
omg I think I'm in love with this song
I love this version, especially the part when is mixed with little dragon's "twice"
Wow!!!! I love this and everything Ben does 😊
I still listen to him and it’s 2023
Wow what an absolute genius Ben Howard is my musical mojo
Absolutely raw talent to each and every one of you!!!! 🙏🏻
Amazing song i love it
Every time I see him do a cover it's awesome wish he would perform his older songs tho Burgh island and Every Kingdom are my fav albums
Breathe your smoke into my lungs,
In the back of a car with you I stare into the sun,
Still not too old to die young,
But lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything
I chase your love around a figure 8,
I need you more than I can take,
You promise forever and a day,
And then you take it all away,
And then you take it all away
Place a kiss on my cheekbone,
When you vanish me, I'm buried in the snow,
But something tells me I'm not alone,
But lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything
I chase your love around a figure 8,
I need you more than I can take,
You promise forever and a day,
And then you take it all away,
And then you take it all away
So lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything,
So lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything
I chase your love around a figure 8,
I need you more than I can take,
You promise forever and a day,
And then you take it all away,
I chase your love around a figure 8,
I need you more than I can take,
You promise forever and a day,
And then you take it all away,
And then you take it all away
this is exactly what I always think of when I hear Ben play. I was always wondering which artists I'd had to tell my children about, like my mom and dad told me about the beatles and queen etc, and now I finally found one.
OMG!!!! Everything is wonderful and suddenly I hear Little Dragon... and i fall in love with this!!
Thank you Ben Howard!!! You let me survive...
I love Ellie and I love Figure 8. This may be the most original cover I've ever heard...and I love it. Great job! (I think Ellie would dig it too)
Hard to believe he is ten times better live in person, most moving performance I've
ALL of his covers are flawless. Its incredible.
One of the most haunting pieces of music I’ve ever heard. Mesmerizing in every way. What a brilliant performance!
Omg he sang so well and mixed the two songs it blended into one, it almost seems like a one original perfect piece. I'm glad that Ellie Goulding version exists so I can understand this better.
He has saved this song; dragging it out of POP OBLIVION; dusted it off and made it into a GEM... man he is talented!!!!!
Outstanding
His songs always sound better when you listen using earphones
All music in my opinion should be listened to on good headphones / sound systems. It's amazing to see what money can buy in the home theater world too, you will think you know songs until you hear them on a sick system.
i first heard Ben's cover & then Ellie's orignial song. i have to say that the cover is WAY BETTER than the original!! so smooth & melodic. awesome artist!
this is so beautiful . i`m crying. just beautiful
Genius anything he touches turns to gold
I agree. I don't know how in the world anybody could say he has a "disgusting voice" - it's incredibly unique and textured. It has so much depth and soul.
what sort of moron says such things
This is phenomenal, Love the little dragon addition. This is epic! can't stop listening
after this one, there is no way to even try to listen to Ellie :P
i am so addicted to BH music :)
Ben Howard touches my soul.
Awesome yet again...he changes the vibe of this song completely and it works! Stunning and awesome live lounge!! Can't wait till I see Ben and the band again live! True talent!
Loving Ben sooo much. Just don't get how come I didn't see this fantastic cover earlier o_O
still one of the best covers ever
This is the best piece of music I have heard in a long while. I have no idea what the Ellie Goulding version sounds like, and to be honest I daren't listen; I would assume it wouldn't even come close to this. Can't believe I've only just discovered this guy, but my goodness am I grateful I did. Also, if India would care to marry me, that would be just fine. All of the live videos I have seen of theirs are fantastic - must get myself along to a show soon. Well done Devon!
This just makes me more and more excited to see you live this August, just beautiful
oh my, I don't even have words, beautiful, just beautiful
A jaw dropping performance! Emotion evoking...
6 mins of serenity
i am genuinely in love with this man
Absolutely love this. His voice is gorgeous!
He's amazing live - hopefully, he makes it to the States again ❤
I love that he adds Little Dragon into this - amazing combination!
This is perfection!
I love this song so much...and his do melodic with his music, i love this guy....keep mucic alive...
Even in 2018 this still sounds amazing!!! Timeless 🔥
2021 still timeless..
Seriously can this guy get any more amazing?! :)
Anyone else notice Little Dragons "twice" somehow making it into the song! they should do a full cover of it!
It's the best part !!!!
Absolutely incredible.
Fantastic piece of music, I melt through the floor. Wow.
unreal talent!
thats a sick tone that...more of that please
Ben's voice is simply breath taking. I have never found an artist where I cry in joy at their music but ever since I saw Ben live and hearing perfect, flawless covers like this really pushes my emotions over the edge. Never stop making music, please!
Also, India is stunning.
Love this cover so much!
