I just watched him in the movie Emma, and something about his presence captivated me. It led me to his music and I can’t believe I never knew about this heavenly piece. Thank you Johnny.
Likewise. I was totally baffled that some songs are already 5 or 10 years old and I had never heard of the man before. Why is this not an absolute shooting star and wins at all award shows? Some songs deserve ten times as many views.
Johnny Flynn is a recent discovery of mine. Emma was my first experience. Since he is handsome,tall & British I did some research & discovered his music which I love. I think he would be a sensitive loving friend.
I sing this to my two daughters and it’s the only thing that makes them sleep in my arms. Nothing can replace the power this song has to connect me with my babies. I sing it badly, but it soothes them like nothing else.
@bluesideup. Brilliant mate, absolutely brilliant and your daughters will cherish your incredible love and devotion to them. Tremendous memories for you all.
Come let's be gentle, be soft in my arms There's moonstorms been brewing and grain in the barns Your mother is sleeping, I'll play my guitar The twilight is keeping us close to the stars Here's where the stories live, here with the peace Oh the kindly ol' night wrapped warm in her fleece Oh dream up a hot day, oh dream and be full Of Orion, his bow, the plough and the bull Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Go trust in their strength for these are your friends And pledge in them now for their love knows no end The bull looks a meanie but he's on your side And he pulls the plough which comes and divides Put space in the heavens, Einstein's idea And he's your friend too, so nothing to fear Orion'll help there, his darts find the dark And all you need do is watch for his mark Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling The suns and the moons and the galaxies far Were cast from his bow before they were stars Oh and the gap in-between them is nothing to us Our eyes cut the distance as loving eyes must From me unto you son from dust unto dust Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling Oh, my darling

Johnny Flynn is still a very young man and will ultimately be well known and already is.. noone needs to be a superstar. If his muse is his mentor then he will always just be this... no fame necessary. The very best of muse'gicians have small followings. Their music is for them first.. this prolific writer and pleasing singer has decades of the road before him. Ups and downs and so it goes.
What a beautiful thing to write. He sings like he’s singing for himself and I can only just enjoy his amazing talent. Found him via The Detectorists so will look out for him.
Glad you said it- there are some odd hierarchical ideas of what success is out there in the hive mind. the idea that all musicians are more or less following in the wake of say, T. Swift or K. West and travelling in the same direction... uurrgghh how awful would that be?
What makes me smile is the fact, that this is Johnny Flynn singing for he's son and looking so so father-ish all of sudden. Such a different apparance from just a few years earlier.
Ironic that he's singing about Einstein three and a half years before portraying him in "Genius." Johnny's performance in "Genius" is absolutely brilliant.
You definitely should! I saw him live a few months ago; absolutely one of the best gigs I have ever seen, so uplifting that I was buzzing for days afterwards, such an incredible band. (Also one of the most attractive men I've ever seen, may have contributed to the overall effect somewhat)
I already loved the song, but watching this version just now gave me the intense feeling I've only had one other time watching a music video ~ the first time I saw Jeff Buckley's solo guitar close up version of Hallelujah. Just mesmerizing.
Its amazing when a song can bring peace and Happiness. This song does this for me, there is something sensational when it is just a person and their guitar, no technology or electronics. That is when the true artist shines.
He's Apalachian Jack. He's the village Blacksmith in 1800 in a Barn in Dorset. He's entertaining the crew of a tall ship discovering far away lands and he's the boy in the trenches with the voice every soldier loves.
How funny is that Johnny played Einstein in BBC's series 4 years after this came out.

Una vez, mientras tomaba un cafe, cerca de alguna avenida, miraba agonizar el sol. Me pregunté varias veces donde estabas. Se me presentó varias ideas en la cabeza que respetaban leyes de la fisica. Inmolé ese momento con un argumento vacio para pasar la pagina.
this song breaks my heart into a million pieces. like i try to play the first chords on guitar and start crying, so i stop and go into a nightmare and i feel guilty because ... my god the melody's just pure and funcking beautiful. if YOU (and i mean YOU), for some reason, are listening to this song, just remember the nights looking the night sky while talking about the universe. slaap lekker, my darling
Folk music ain't dead, there's such a variety out there. I thought it was a time to be alive when I saw a Moon Pie in the Kwik-E-Mart, but then I discovered contemporary folk music.
I've just had a similar journey to Aum Nom . . . I've just finished watching the 4th 'Emma' film (had it on the shelf for 6 months - do we really need another Emma Film . . .). I actually listened to the songs at the end, paid attention; I've never heard of Johnny Flynn, well I have now, just fantastic, Thank you, just beautiful Johnny
I just watched him in the movie Emma, and something about his presence captivated me. It led me to his music and I can’t believe I never knew about this heavenly piece. Thank you Johnny.
Exactly how i got here!

Happened the same to me after seeing the English series "Lovesick" a couple of years ago.
He is wonderful
The same here 😃

How beautiful, I'm sure they just love your singing x
@bluesideup. Brilliant mate, absolutely brilliant and your daughters will cherish your incredible love and devotion to them. Tremendous memories for you all.
A poet, an artist so handsome, humble, gentle with a pure hearth.
I can feel it. Love him so deeply.
a pure hearth... bloody good fireplace on the boy isnt it
Amazing! There such an earnest quality about him, acting and singing. I could watch and listen to him for hours.
Come let's be gentle, be soft in my arms
There's moonstorms been brewing and grain in the barns
Your mother is sleeping, I'll play my guitar
The twilight is keeping us close to the stars
Here's where the stories live, here with the peace
Oh the kindly ol' night wrapped warm in her fleece
Oh dream up a hot day, oh dream and be full
Of Orion, his bow, the plough and the bull
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Go trust in their strength for these are your friends
And pledge in them now for their love knows no end
The bull looks a meanie but he's on your side
And he pulls the plough which comes and divides
Put space in the heavens, Einstein's idea
And he's your friend too, so nothing to fear
Orion'll help there, his darts find the dark
And all you need do is watch for his mark
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
The suns and the moons and the galaxies far
Were cast from his bow before they were stars
Oh and the gap in-between them is nothing to us
Our eyes cut the distance as loving eyes must
From me unto you son from dust unto dust
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Поднимите глаза на высоту небес… Творец бросил звезды так, что мы приходим в восторг от увиденного…
❤ thank you for the lyrics❤
he wrote this song as a lullaby for his little boy, he said it didn't work though. #bestdadever

It works on me! Has a very calming and therapeutic effect.

Did you copy paste this from somewhere? If not, well done.

your comment is so profound and a message rarely spoken. You're very correct. I hope people can agree with this! I do.
he's been on TV too. He's not exactly unknown.
Johnny seems like a very humble, caring and sensitive person...i hope to see and hear more from him😍
What makes me smile is the fact, that this is Johnny Flynn singing for he's son and looking so so father-ish all of sudden. Such a different apparance from just a few years earlier.
Johnny Flynn's music makes me feel young at heart...amazing talent. Netflix Lovesick brought me here.
Long time fan of Johnny's. He's absolutely phenomenal live, both solo and with a full band. Humble, gracious and sweet as well.
I’ve jut watched Johnny in Detectorists performing the theme tune on stage at the local pub folk night. Beautiful voice.
I am so glad I watched detectorists , I have found a true talented singer and song writer , I could listen to him all day .
+Paul Mccormack And that theme song is so good!
Ironic that he's singing about Einstein three and a half years before portraying him in "Genius." Johnny's performance in "Genius" is absolutely brilliant.
Omg really! I'm going to go and find that now :0 thank you!! xxx
This is the perfect song to sing to tired children who cannot to sleep.
I'm so happy I met him through Emma which ultimately led me to this adorable piece🌸
his music and his voice just mesmerizes me. I hope I get to see him one day live in concert.
You definitely should! I saw him live a few months ago; absolutely one of the best gigs I have ever seen, so uplifting that I was buzzing for days afterwards, such an incredible band. (Also one of the most attractive men I've ever seen, may have contributed to the overall effect somewhat)
I saw him at GreenMan Festival UK last year, he was great. He's headlining the folkie section at BoomTown this year.
Kirsten Liggat
Agreed, His sister wasn't so bad herself ;) Amazing singer as well
*Look up a musician called "Peacock Affect"*

Amo esta musica.Amorosa e ele fenomenal
This song is like a balm for the heart.
Its amazing when a song can bring peace and Happiness. This song does this for me, there is something sensational when it is just a person and their guitar, no technology or electronics. That is when the true artist shines.
In love with him and his music since Song One
me too !!!
mee too! he's amazing!
+Nathalie Ferreira Way Diamandis Loved him since Crusade in Jeans

Just heard this guy for the first time in song one. I would happily listen to him all the time, and easy on the eye too
Wow...that's raw and wonderful....hard to find good music on the radio nowadays...thanks Amazon for posting this guy in your $5 albums!!
He's Apalachian Jack. He's the village Blacksmith in 1800 in a Barn in Dorset. He's entertaining the crew of a tall ship discovering far away lands and he's the boy in the trenches with the voice every soldier loves.
He is an actor on a show called Lovesick on Netflix. Did not know he was this amazing at singing.
semsarah faustin Amazing show, more people should check it out.
semsarah And I'm so impressed with his acting as well! What a talented guy.
Johnny has a short appearance in Detectorists playing the show's theme song which he wrote
One of his most beautiful songs without doubt.
He's as an fallen angel, he's so handsome , and sings so good, and that song so good. Damn ! I love it.
I love his guitar playing, as well as his voice in the high.
The lyrics, your voice, the song as a whole is perfect.
I thank detectorists for this discovery, now a fan
ditto x
Ditto that too
Ditto too. :)
same here. I love the show and music
Same.
The atmosphere that causes me his music.heartfelt and honest music
He is so talented, handsome and captivating ❤️
4 years ago: a song called Einstein's idea
now: he actually plays Einstein!!!

I just discovered this man and I am in love!
So gentle and soothing.. I really want that jumper though
+Asha Johnson totally
I'm listening this so I can break my heart again.

Enhoying him as young Einstein - beautiful sensitive soul, actor & musician.
Folk music ain't dead, there's such a variety out there. I thought it was a time to be alive when I saw a Moon Pie in the Kwik-E-Mart, but then I discovered contemporary folk music.
Raw and beautiful...LOVE!
My favorite song off the new album. Beautiful.
I love this song!! Thank you Jhonny

Just watched Ripley, great series. This man is soooooo talented. I'm now a big fan.😍
i think i've just fallen in love . .
Such a beautiful voice!
Four years after this song, he played role as young Einstein in National Geographic's Genius series. What a coincidence...
He has such beautiful hands
YASSSS
This performance of JF playing this song is extraordinaire...
un chanteur que j'écoute depuis longtemps et qui est tout simplement génial
I am a new fan of this handsome and talented man!

Alteady loved him as an actor in lovesick, (rlly miss the show) but just discovered this. Amazing
I wonder if he knew he'd be playing Einstein when he wrote this??? What a talent!
Oh God! This sonho is Very amazing... Their composings really 'touch' my inna

This song has all the makings of the best kind of lullaby

Still here 6 years later.
Very talented - writes and performs his music, great actor - especially in Genius and Lovesick. Listen to him everyday
wow. i've found this by accident and i'm thrilled. he should have more views.
wow ! love this one ! beautiful
How this can be sooooooooooooo good? I love it!
you always make me feel better
How fitting that he later brilliantly portrayed Albert Einstein in Genius. He is a rare bird with so many talents. ❤️
Detectorists brought me here. Love it like x
I love so much this song
We all have a favourite sweater.
Scrotal Recall brought me here.
beautiful Johnny Flynn !
Simply magical.
I like your style. I’ll have to look for more of your music.
Scrotal Recall brought me. This man is a babe💕 his music reminds me of fleet foxes or my morning jacket if anyone is interested in the genre.
Johnny is fantastic...
It took me a long time to realise the writer of the Detectorists theme tune
and other great songs is also a brilliant actor.
Music for our times..nameste..and..I love you 🥰🥰..thank you.🌸🌸
Toda vez eu fico com vontade de chorar ouvindo essa música *-*
he is welcome in my recording studio here in NZ any day of the week.
oh my darling, this is beautiful
