Your sound is amazing, I'm late to the show but I'll have your songs in my loop forever now.
He's way too into it, and I'm all for it. I like it more than the album version
around the world of music and back to this killer son, bad ass fun to hear
there's a tinkering, THErE's A TInKEriNG!
I ve been listening to you for 8 years. When you came to Istanbul, I couldn't attend your concert. Maybe one day, if you come again, I won't miss it
This is feckin class pure cabaret, ya a young Tom waits
I can picture Ben Caplan as a Disney villein.
Alexis Steele You got my words in your tongue
Way too cool for Disney.
Yeah when i first heard him ..same thought
The new album has even more songs that are really damn close to villain songs.
@@28happenstance but not for a villein
"All the angels are crying downstairs
The brandy's run out, but their god never cares
He'll slap them and tell them the evening's been ruined
And his robes reek of failure and cheap French perfume"
that passage kills me every time
Great lyrics!
Man he is so intense but you can understand every word its just so dang good huge fan
I feel this song in my soul
Tom Waits called....
Thought I was gonna razz ya, didn't ya? Nah, great job.
This song is madness. I love it. Good job!
I like the first time I hear a Ben Caplan song! This is deep, dark, empowering, and after I've heard it a few hundred times it might be just like every other pop song my brain waves process. That's when sharing a bit of Ben is amazing, watching the awe/shock/horror in my someone's face as you watch them watch and listen... and then excitement as you watch them play it to someone else first time :) Priceless. Thanks Ben!
EDIT-erm, 7 months later it's not like any other song I've heard can someone like give this guy an award or something?
You could write a whole film just on this song alone!
+Baldavier Try Tom Waits.
u could have played it for me 2 years ago
I absolutely love his voice.
hey man, ive just found your music, absolutely incredible. i wasn't let down in anyway shape or form through browsing through them. your music strikes a very particular place and not enough artists have that ability, just keep producing and il keep listening!
!Genius!
OMFG I LOVE BEN CAPLAN!
Magnificent
Waht iz this back intime love it beatyfull thank you all
Amazing. I can't believe I missed him end of last year here in the Netherlands. I would love to see him live someday!
Hij was onder andere te zien in Haarlem vorig jaar
Ik weet t.. dat maakt t zo erg ;_;
Lyrics from the site genius, I really needed them myself. My god this is amazing.
There's a churning , There's a churning,
There's a churning around
I can't fall asleep and the drugs won't stay down
There's a burning, There's a burning,
There's a burning I've
Found.
It's deep in the pit
Where the blood pumps around
All children are laughing outside.
The work never sleeps and there is no where to hide
It's under control far as anyone seen
But there ain't enough shit to climb out the latrine
There's a witness, There's a witness, There's a witness out there
We've got to pretend that the moneys still here
There's a knocking, There's a knocking,
There's a knock at the door
We'll tell them that uncle don't live here no more
All the angels are crying down stairs the brandy's run out but their god never cares
Just grab them and tell them the evenings been ruined and his robes reek of failure and cheep french perfume
There's a tinkering, There's a tinkering, There's a tinkerer in town she'll fix everything till the moneys been found
There's a watchman, There's a watchman and he's guarding the door with a drink in his hand and a gun on the floor
And the monsters blew in through the sewers again and they spend every night making evermore friends
They've conquered the bowels of Paris and now They have every intention of Taking the town
(EPIC-O VOCALS)
There's a bottle, There's a bottle, There's a bottle in my bed It helps me to reach for the switch in my head
There's a madness, There's a madness at bay but a cold wind will blow down the levee some day
A trade of blows but the doctors been hanged
In a white little house oh the telephone rang and It's under control far as anyone seen
But there ain't enough shit to climb out the latrine
(Haunted ending vocals)
Thank you for posting this!!!
Just a small tweak,
"there's a bottle" is only song twice🙂
“Epic-O vocals”
I didn’t realize how much I needed to read that bit. Thanks for the chuckle 🤭
is it "a knock" or "a narc" at the door? 🤔
"A trade of blows but the doctors been hanged" should actually be "A train whistle blows, the conductor's been hanged"
There's a churning there's a churning there's a churning around
I can't fall asleep and the drugs won't stay down
There's a burning, there's a burning, there's a burning I found
It's deep in the pit where the blood pumps around
All the children are laughing outside
The works never sleeps and there's nowhere to hide
It's under control far as anyone's seen
But there ain't enough shit to climb out the latrine
There's a witness, there's a witness, there's a witness out there
We've got to pretend that the money's still here
There's a knocking, there's a knocking, there's a knock at the door
We'll tell them that uncle don't live here no more
All the angels are crying downstairs
The brandy's run out, but their god never cares
He'll slap them and tell them the evening's been ruined
And his robes reek of failure and cheap French perfume
There's a tinkering there's a tinkering there's a tinkerer in town
She'll fix everything till the money's been found
There's a watchman, there's a watchman, and he's guarding the door
With a drink in his hand and a gun on the floor
And the monsters broke in through the sewers again
And they spend every night making ever more friends
They've conquered the bowels of Paris and now
They have every intention of taking the town
OOOOooooh aaaaaaAAAAAAA
Ladadadadadadampaa ladadadadadadum
There's a bottle, there's a bottle in my bed
It helps me to reach for the switch in my head
There's a madness, there's a madness at bay
But a cold wind will blow down the levee some day
A train whistle blows, the conductor's been hanged
In a white little house, a red telephone rang
And it's under control far as anyone's seen
But there ain't enough shit to climb out the latrine
thank you
Sounds to me like "There ain't enough shit to climb out the *latrine*."
Tristan Twitchell Thanks, that makes much more sense.
nicely done. Out the latrine is right. And it's cheap French perfume. Cheers!
Ben Caplan Thanks (for both the correction and the wonderful song itself)!
Fantastic
I am in love with that voice!
amazingly theatrical, moving and exciting all at once, love you , ben!
This is what i call both music and art in its purest form :D Gooddamn this is good!!
BRILLIANT!!!
I've only heard the album version of this so far, to think I missed this from 3 years ago!? This is amazing, can't wait to hear it this Friday in Toronto!

This song is perfect poetry... And the performance is awesome 😎😎😎

The Young Voice of Tom Waits
Yes, it just hit me today how much he reminds me of Tom Waits. That's why I like him so much
and the old voice of the singer of "annenmaykantereit"

Love this!!

Absolutely Fantastic! Brilliant voice. You really need to be in some type of musical movie.
This will soon become my new "scream-along-whilst-intoxicated" song, I'll probably end up doing it and stranger back to back hahaha.
Really like this song for vocal training,
Fantastic for practicing that guttural tone :)

+jonlambert76
Too bad there ain't enough to climb out the latrine.
mükemmel! mükemmel ötesi diyecek kelime bulamıyorum
I can't even call the wrong notes wrong, they sound too good
geniaaal, me pone los pelos de punta :)
Sem dúvidas um dos maiores a atualidade
the kind of music you hear and say "how the hell did I not know of this?!".
but like really, how?
wonderfull!
this is a Big Artist
This suprisingly hasnt the attention it deserves
really nice voice
Put that on spotify, my favorite song...
Hi Jean --> open.spotify.com/track/6WI1Kg1tsmPaOeqpHzRmme
this guy is fucking amazing
Reminds me a bit of Tom Waits! Beautiful
Repeat mode activated
Looks like our generation got a new Tom Waits!! Weee! :)
What a mad CeeEweEnTee.... ment in the fondest way of course ;)
the best
:)
Demais !
this tune tickles my balls - in a good way.
Well, merry Christmas then! :)
Well this is macabre
COOKIE MONSTER IS TALENTED!
lol never thought of it that way
When is ben caplan coming to europe again?
only found out about his music recently and would love to see a show.
+xanexio NOW.
SGresponse
was there in amsterdam. But thx for the headsup
He was just there! I hope you were able to see him!
not sure the true meaning of these lyrics. To me it is a few things. Mainly the eternal battle of every man, integrity/civility vs the raw primal instinct. we do not derive from (to out knowledge) a civilized culture we came from the opposite. The weak died/dies the physical alphas and the wise lived. nothing has changed. we are all animals. this song depicts to me the internal demons as I call them crawling their way into our perfect lives and world. All the while we are too blissfully ignorant to see the world we are endorsing. damn I hope this gets a like.
por favor, que temazo
I wish there was a music video for this
See that’s weird cos I can’t help but picture him as a prophet of Wisdom.
psycodelic, hell yeah.....
What a nice hand!
🔥✔️🔥✔️
Ben you should contact the Goddamn Gallows …. And write a song with them. Your voice is hand in glove with them🤟🏻🤟🏻

LYYYYYRICS

Sergio Luengo j
I bet Tim burton would love you Ben.
SO TRUE! I'd watch more Tim Burton if Ben Caplan was featured, lol. We should Tweet him!
i want to play it on piano how can i im not finding any tabs or tutorials
can someone help me
Funny that the songtitle is: Under Control while the text to the right says: Under Influence.
Hi Isaac, 'onder invloed' was the Dutch name of this channel. See www.theinfluences.com
This has never been more relevant than it is right fucking now. Same with plow the shit.
Can one purchase copies of these recordings ? They're so honest.
+Simon Greenslade Hi Simon, thank you for the compliment. They're not though. Exclusively on RUclips and theinfluences.com. Who knows some day...
+Onder Invloed Thanks for the link. I'll keep 'em in my favourites, then :-)
Good plan!
Tom Waits vibe , amazing song
Sir, fucking awesome.
1) Saw you play this live with a woman accompanying you. It was amazing. Any chance you'd record a version with her?
2) Anyone else get a Zelda Song of Storms vibe from this song?
Has anyone found sheet music for this yet?
I'm dying trying to find piano sheet music for this. Any sources!?
All I the only one who's reminded of Jason Segel's performance at piece in "Forgetting Sarah Marshall?"
I love you.
This is fucking brilliant. Anyone who agrees wuith James Richardson should go to hell
been there
