  • A song from his second EP, "Glorious You". Completely self-taught and born in North London, Clementine moved fairly spontaneously to Paris at 19. Homeless, he busked his way around the city until he was discovered by agent Aysam Rahmania FdP. A few years later, he was adeptly named ‘la revelation anglaise des Francos’; “The English revelation of the ‘Francofolies’ festival” and became known for performing in just a trench coat and bare feet. Ladies, form an orderly queue. This is Clementine’s second EP, Glorious You.
    The opening dynamic of Glorious You is to say the least, standout. The Nina Simone-esque of “Condolence” breaks through the haunting piano; the strings are absolutely beautiful. The song also includes a gentle monologue showcasing Benjamin’s poetry talents. With equally sweet yet bleak lyrics such as you’re the “pigeon to my Trafalgar,” Benjamin’s music has been classed as ‘expressionism’. The genre is clear.
    Despite the difference in style, Benjamin is often compared to the brilliant Simone, and you can see why. He has a really astounding voice, and each song has Clementine’s heart and soul poured into it. The last track, “Mathematics” is extremely beautiful. Just as “Condolence” is the perfect dynamic opening, “Mathematics” is a melancholy and deep ending, with lyrics such as “subtract one from two and you’re left with you.”
    Benjamin Clementine is one of the most soulful beings out there at the moment, and Glorious You fully lives up to the expectation of the first. This EP is only four songs long and has you wanting more.

    Although I hate math,
    I was surprisingly brave enough to trust that this track would be gorgeous.

    Saw him live recently at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin and the hairs were standing on the back of my neck and I had goosebumps as I closed my eyes and listen to the raw emotion in his music. I'm so happy to have witnessed this. Many thanks Benjamine Clementine.!

    Silly boy, don't you know that young girl was going to leave
    She would have not even stayed even if you two might have meant to be
    Don't you bother calling that lady
    Or she will tell you what she really needed
    Sighting ain't all about the chemistry
    But mathematics, mathematics
    Simply add 1 to 1 and it will be 2
    And so subtract one from two and you are left with you
    Now if a ship gets stuck at the north pole
    That doesn't mean it's about to join her sister the Titanic
    So swallow your pride, won't you feel some guilt?
    If you want to cry go ahead, don't you panic
    For all we know, tomorrow surely is another day
    Come on now, won't you give yourself a break and start all over again
    Think mathematics
    Think mathematics
    Just add 1 to 1 and it will be 2
    Then subtract 1 from 2 and you will be left with you now
    Left with you now
    Only you now
    With a little bit of feelings
    Subtract you now
    From the two now
    Only left with you now
    And a little bit of feelings
    You are a number
    Just a number
    Added to her past lovers

    Silly boy, don't you know?
    That young girl was going to leave?
    She would have not even stayed, even if, you two might have meant to be.
    Dont you bother calling that lady, as you tell her what you really needed?
    Besides you named all about the chemistry.
    But nothing matters, nothing matters.
    Simply add 1 to 1 and it will be 2, And so subtract one from two and you are left with you.
    Now the ship got stuck at north pole, that doesn't mean it's about to join her sisters, the titanics.
    And so, swallow your pride, won't you feel some guilt?
    If you want to cry, go ahead, don't you panic.
    For all we know, to our journey is another day.
    Am i now who wanna give yourself a break and start all over again?
    Think, nothing matters.
    Think, nothing matters.
    Just add 1 to 1 and it will be 2, Then subtract one from two and you are left with you.
    Left with you, now.
    Only you, now.
    With a little bit of feelings.
    Subtract you, now.
    From the 2, now.
    What was left of you, now?
    A little bit of feelings.
    You're a number.
    Just a number, added to a past lovers.

      Thank you for the lyrics. I just want to point out that it's not "Think, nothing matters" but "Think, mathematics". I hope you have a great day.
