I WILL make a flash mob singing and performing this song with millions of people. I will honor Ben Harper’s passion and the seeds he HAS planted in so many. ❤❤❤Love ❤you you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was played at my son's birth. 🙏✨️ It was glorious, amazing, and beautiful. He is healthy, happy, and strong. He is a grown man now. I am so proud of him. He has dedicated himself to a cause he believes in, which helps, supports, and encourages. I love him. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Pour moi aussi sa musique m accompagne depuis mes 16ans,j en ai 45 maintenant,je vis en Suisse et c est toujours magnifique,génial, ,j aime l écouter parler. Bonne journée
"Better Way" I'm a living sunset Lightning in my bones Push me to the edge But my will is stone Fools will be fools And wise will be wise But i will look this world Straight in the eyes What good is a man Who won't take a stand What good is a cynic With no better plan Reality is sharp It cuts at me like a knife Everyone i know Is in the fight of their life Take your face out of your hands And clear your eyes You have a right to your dreams And don't be denied I believe in a better way
I believe in a better way: a better way to treat those around us of all races, sexual orientations, and cultures; a better way to treat and love ourselves; and a better way to treat our planet, with respect and love.
May 25th 2022, and yesterday 19 children and 2 Teachers were murdered in yet another tragic school shooting 🥺🤬. This world is so fucked up, but I will never give up trying to create positive change✊🏻. I still " Believe In a Better Way." Thanks Ben!
There are very few songs that make me tear up. This is one of those songs. I wish the whole world could hear this and understand the lyrics. If that was the case this world would know peace. Love you Ben and love your band as well.
"What Good is a man that Won't make a stand?" I believe! Caught this one on my way to work and played it three times...It being Good Friday...got me at the right moment. Harper has got a song for so many different emotions and experiences. My all time favorite musician. For me, So few can tap into hidden energy like Harper.
I will always love this song. ❤️❤️❤️💥 Today Spirit told me to go back and listen to this song that I love so much. 🙏🛐❤️💎🔥 Thank you Ben for this beauty
Man I love this dude We attended concert in cleveland and was blown away It was like a dead concert in a way. One of the best times me and the wife had.What an artist and a spokesman for a new gereration.....
@Ben_HarperI cannot believe that you have taken the time to reply to me personally. I am doing a little better each day now that, for me, I have found a better way. It took me a long time to do that, better late than never. How are you doing, Ben?
If you ever get a chance, go check out the music shop where this was filmed in Claremont California. Ben's grandfather started it up, and it's still one of my favorite places to visit and find unique musical instruments. I went in there when I was a kid and Ben Harper was playing a didgeridoo. I talked to him for a bit and he taught me how to play it. Great guy, Great family.

God I Love this man!! Not only is Ben Harper the beholder of a beautiful God-like beauty but HE is the CREATOR of such beautiful, meaningful music. I Love this video, I Love the message of this song
Wonderful, just heard it the first time. Powerful, pushing, really touching and straight as I'm used to listening to Bens songs. I'll always admiring him and he gives me the strengh to take my own guitar again to play on the streets... this song would be great!!!
I LOVE this song and video : A call to action to heal humanity and the earth , this is what I feel and celebrate with this song in a joyful yet Powerful way !!
I feel like every politician in our country should be listening to music like this regularly...Attending very expensive fundraisers and shaking hands with voters does not appear to be making any difference.....
I saw him live at the Hollywood Bowl like 8 years ago. Great, great concert. It was like right before Jack Johnson blew up too. Too bad Ben Harper didn't hit big like that. He deserved it.
quanti Rocco ci sono al mondo , tanta la musica diversa , buono Harper , ma il sound non e' gran ke' . A parte il ritornello , che si sa che tutti si vorrebbe , avendo possibilita' , di vivere meglio sempre e comunque...

Heard this song in a documentary called waterman and had to find out what it was!! Great surfing doc too. Now I think about it this would have been a great Beatles song in there later years!
"Everyone I know is in the fight of their life.". September 28th, 2024 & these words are truer than ever. 😢❤

Oct. 2024 still jamming to this classic!!!!
@jeremymacklem2510 what to do with said message ❤️🔥
I’m with you! For life.
Mr Harper not only believes in a "Better Way" . He has FOUND IT! ~ Beautiful ~
Yea, where's that led?
If you combine Hendrix, Marley and Dylan you get Ben Harper. This guy is such an amazing musician/person, he really has changed my life.
You forgot Richie Havens.
Pour moi aussi sa musique m accompagne depuis mes 16ans,j en ai 45 maintenant,je vis en Suisse et c est toujours magnifique,génial, ,j aime l écouter parler.
Bonne journée
Here there is a lot of Beatles too
Himan
This song is almost Ben's own version of Within You Without You by The Beatles
"Better Way"
I'm a living sunset
Lightning in my bones
Push me to the edge
But my will is stone
Fools will be fools
And wise will be wise
But i will look this world
Straight in the eyes
What good is a man
Who won't take a stand
What good is a cynic
With no better plan
Reality is sharp
It cuts at me like a knife
Everyone i know
Is in the fight of their life
Take your face out of your hands
And clear your eyes
You have a right to your dreams
And don't be denied
I believe in a better way
Dario Quintana thank you so much
Maybe google copy and paste?
Kkk

I saw him at the Riviera in Buena Park(Chicago) several years ago; Intimate&Awesome!

One of my top 5 musicians of all time
How does this track only have 5 mill views…it’s so good!
Lyrics:
I'm a living sunset
Lightning in my bones
Push me to the edge
But my will is stone
Fools will be fools
And wise will be wise
But i will look this world
Straight in the eyes
What good is a man
Who won't take a stand
What good is a cynic
With no better plan
Reality is sharp
It cuts at me like a knife
Everyone i know
Is in the fight of their life
Take your face out of your hands
And clear your eyes
You have a right to your dreams
And don't be denied
I Believe in Better Way
Heard this song in a documentary called waterman and had to find out what it was!! Great surfing doc too. Now I think about it this would have been a great Beatles song in there later years!
This explains partly why we were protesting in Wellington NZ last week. FREEDOM
Reality is sharp, it cuts at me like a knife
Everyone I know is in the fight of their life
But I believe in a better way
Why yes, I do in fact believe in a better way!
Seriously this is magic !!!
From the bottom of my heart, untill the end of time I BELIEVE IN A BETTER WAY !!!!!! (loud-louder-loudest:-) )
Mon artiste préfèré depuis que j ai 17 ans ...
