![[EP] Ben Howard - The Burgh Island](/img/tr.png)
Played on repeat 3 weeks when i lost my grandmother. She was the sweetest person that ive ever known.
❤❤❤❤
U made me to miss my grandmum who passed away February 2024
My Gramma died January 11th, I miss her so much. She would've loved this song. I never thought to play it for her, eventhough we shared a lot of music.
No words can express the way I feel when I'm listening to ben's songs.
It’s a transcendence
I know right!
True, never get tired of him. Hope he gets to Australia again one day ! 😊
As an agnostic atheist, musicians like Howard are the closest thing I have to spiritual leaders whose music is like church to my mind.
Amazing 👌
Nobody creates atmosphere like Ben Howard. The Burgh Island EP has such a distinct tone and mood, especially this track. There’s something transcendent about it.
What an amazing choice of wording. "There's something transcendent..." Exactly. 100%. He is of a being that we don't even know, let alone understand of
Ben is amazing no doubt but Bon iver is on a par. Would love for them to tour together
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤞🙏
@@yancrazy Justin is no way near Ben’s level to me
This was playing in the movie theatre before the show started. Glad I discovered it. Music for the soul. Deeply touching.
lyrics, instrumental, everything
every ben howard song is like a masterpiece
this guy is a fkin genius
Raphael Nether You're right.. the lyrics, his tone, and the instruments all come together so perfectly in all his songs.
genie for sure
a lovely organ isn't it...
Ben was a gift from the music gods
everytime we drive over the crest of the hill and see Burgh Island standing there it takes my breath away ... everytime
I’ve been listening to your music since I was about 12 and I’m nearly 24 now. Bens music has giving me guidance in this mad world we live in💙
I never thought I would use the word perfect to describe something but this is the definition of that word
Love Monica Heldal's voice. Wish they sang together more. ❤
Not sure where all these comments are coming from. But here in South Florida nobody knows Ben.
I discovered Ben and crew on Austin City limits back in 2019 and have been completely c9nsum3d by his music. A true genius and compassionate soul
Such a beautiful piece of music and especially love the way it builds up into the final vocal section… will always be one of my all time favourites.
When Monica starts to sing, it makes me ache. Sometimes I feel like my exterior, my body, my skin -I feel like it’s a cage. But on the inside, beyond my bones, I feel like there’s a frenzied, hungry bird that’s pecking at my insides, crying and trying to rip its way out from this cage. I want my life to change. I want to go on an adventure. I want to travel so I can feel things and change and grow. Thank you, Ben, for making my wanderlust burst through my veins.
That's beautiful. Can I come on your adventure?
Where are you now?
@@AndrewPaulK80 Still figuring things out, I guess. Working towards that change. Hope you’re doing well, wherever you are.
@@CheezyC much respect......keep going, it aint easy out there ❤️
@@AndrewPaulK80 Haha, for real, it’s not easy at all. Respect to you also! 👍🏼
Benjamin John Howard, your music is perfection incarnated in sound.
You are ALL I listen to.
Genius. Simply genius.
HUGE FAN! :)
I really don't know how to express how I feel when I Iisten to this. It's like happy, nostalgic, lonely yet peaceful. It's just beautiful.
Go to burgh island a lot. This song always comes in my head when I'm there and I get shivers. Ben Howard.. Favourite artist
This EP is what sets him apart from most of the artists these days...the fact that he can go in such a different direction and still maintain the emotion connection his songs have is truly amazing. This is a much more mature sound than his previous album and hopefully it is only a glimpse of greater things to come.
It's a pure harmony for my ears.
The second part is outstanding... I'm speechless
Could not agree MORE🙏
It gets better...🙏
Some of the best moments of my life have been listening to Ben's Music. I remember being at a party and all of my friends even once I wasn't close to were just speaking to each other it was soo nice and peaceful. Also I am quite an early riser and I cant think of anything better than watching the sun rise and listening to Ben's Music he is so inspiring.
Listening to Ben Howard is liken to having a spiritual epiphany, 👏👏!!
Dam so close to ending it all.. And this makes me think of all that can be achieved with one life, pure and emotional well done Ben. Picked you up in my taxi a few years back. Hope all works out 4 everyone
I hope you are thriving brother. Keep your head up:)
Hey buddy I hope you are doing ok
Only listen to Ben Howard these days, what else is there that feels like this?
❤❤❤ Questa canzone meravigliosa accompagna la mia anima in mondi lontani... È magia... È pura magia!!! 🎶🎶🎶
When listening to this song it feels I’m hearing someone told me a poetry of life how fragile our feelings can be.
For real. I feel that way while listening to every B. Howard song. They murder my spirit. In a good way...lol😍
@@siemprepalante773 yeah it is, I think mostly of his song is combining the emotion, thoughts, expression and life that in reality we hardly to explains. These two are my fave I forget where we were and promise.
@@christineandrews6624 Oh, hey. Thanks for the response. Totally. He's such a great songwriter. While I listen to his music I wonder if the music comes first or lyrics. I'd hate to be the music man if it's the lyrics...lol. 😜 They're so hard to match. My favs are Gracious, Black Flies and, Keep Your Head Up.
These lyrics are mesmerising. I can't fault anything about this song. This is music at its finest.
been listening to ben howard alot recently, i am ashamed to say i only heard of him last year and his tracks have echoed through the memories i have made for myself, i go mountain biking alot and he is all ive been listening too while driving down to the forests, its amazing how a song can take you back to good times.... i will continue to listen to his tracks and make more memories!
+mechreports1 I only heard of him recently myself, due to the Witcher 3 trailer using Oats in the Water. Loved the song instantly, definitely need to get the rest of this EP now.
Triss D he is really good there is ust something different about his music, i am sooo picky about what music i listen too and hes the only artist i have found, where i like all of their tracks
I love this........ Met Ben two weeks ago, a true lad! Living life to the fullest....!
Wow!!! Now I believe that perfection exists...
I love that he keeps changing his sound and is not afraid to try something different. I've seen him several times and he is always adding new songs and sounds. Its impressive
This might be his best song yet. Haunting. Monica Heldal makes this song, without her vocals it would not be anywhere near as powerful as it is. Amazing.
Ben Howards music just makes me so happy, he is a musical genius.
Is it just me or do you guys listen to Ben when your feeling down and just want to let out the tears you have been holding in while your locked up alone.
I’ve loved this man since I was able to love, he’s just something else. Incredible.
Of course an album can be full of songs like these. Not every album has to have an upbeat song within. If he can create beautiful dark, cold songs such as these then i'd buy a full album of them straight away.
I just discovered him... and I am SO happy about the amount of songs he already has. I'm obsessed.
puissant et envoûtant, l'univers musical et la voix de Ben Howard nous transportent !
He gives me chill, I can't believe a man can be so depth at only 25 years old. It is always a gift to listen to his music.
So beautiful. A rainy day on a windy beach:)
Favourite song of all time!! Love Ben Howard
i have no words for the amount of feelings Ben gives me, truly an amazing artist
in love with him
burgh island is a fantastic place to be a live by.
So beautiful. I was shown him ages ago and I listened to just one song 'The Fear' then one day I listened to all his songs and now my favourite changes every other week. 'Black Flies' is my all time fave 'I think' but now this E.P has arrived I'm sure it'll change. It's a lot darker but still Ben all over. I'm a bit in love with the man!!!
With brown eyes shining, a sure light on a way to go
And the sun chides you're reeling home, against your glow
And we lost sight of it, and breath tied up in summer's hold
And your eyes screamed it, Burgh Island, in sepia tones
And if I was ever to leave, I'll say before I go
That you're the best woman I ever known
With brown eyes shining, a sure line on a way to go
And the sun chides you so long
And we lost sight of it, and breath tied up in summer's hold
And we'll break for it, on Burgh Island in sepia tones
And if I was ever to leave, I'll say before I go
That you're the best woman I have ever known
Oh, I bite my tongue, that you may be the first to ruin
'Cause I heard it sung, that man is a fickle child
The wind blew in
Oh, I bite my tongue, that you may be the first to ruin
'Cause I heard it sung, that man is a fickle child
The wind blew in
I've been in the music industry for over 10 years and i've heard some of the greatest musicians that have ever graced this planet. Every time I hear the soulful voice of Ben it astounds me, what a talent! I remember the first day I heard 'Old Pine' and his song writing ability was mesmerising. Cannot wait for the next album and look forward to whatever Ben gives us next
and if ever to leave I'll say before I go your the best woman I've ever known, best part of the song to me, it's perfection. That, and him and Monica harmonizing.
Aaron Cates *you're
That's good. I feel a part of this scene. As, I used to go Surfing near Burgh Island.
And . My dad plays lots of traditional instruments . There's groups on Facebook that connect Bantham surfers and I was always in awe of those guys who could ride The Point Break by the river. Top turning and bottom turning on those little Thruster boards the adv ... oh out of time.
This is heads and shoulders above his older stuff, and that was pretty fucking fantastic! This is spectacular.
The girls voice in this is amazing :O
Monica Heldal ... agreed, she's incredible in her own right.
Monika Heidel
Honestly, I wish Ben Howard stuck to songs like the ones on this EP. I absolutely love every song.
My heart broke into a million pieces when Monica started singing :/
"Oh your, brown eyes shine a, sure light on the way to go"
This was the first song I heard from Ben. Was playing a Manchester Orchestra playlist shuffle and as soon as I heard that initial guitar rhythm I knew I had to check him out. It's like its music for my soul. My favorite artist now.
TWD brought me here, but his awesome music has kept me here.
I love this so much, makes me feel so calm 💕
wonderful chillin music, and we live here!! xx
Lesley Harwood Awesome. Where is Burgh Island and what's it like? : )
oldnavyrum South Devon (Near Bantham)
yet another amazing piece.... legend of a man. Even better live !
Ugh I love this, I can always feel so much emotion in his voice
my goosebumps have goosebumps.
The reason why i found this song is because one of a person i know at my school did this song in our show case and it was beautiful and he did an amazing job signing and playing the electric guitar . Now I'm in love with this song
Timeless.
Ben is the first artist ever to never get me bored. you know how some artist you just get bored of the song? ya well Ben isnt one of them.. I could listen to his music forever and never get bored because we know that he enjoys it and that we enjoy it. :) BTW come to San Diego again!
And if I was ever to leave, I'll say before I go, that you're the best moment I've ever known..
*****
I wasn't sure about it. And youre right. :)
good misheard anyway...
Burgh island is at Bigbury on sea south hams devon, its lovely surf shack great place to visit beautiful x
Monica heldal fits his style perfectly, mesmerising!
this song is so nostalgique for me
This song gave me hope many times, now when my life is stable i can really enjoy it ❤
Living in Southern California and having his music around me means nothing but magical gifts. LOVE HIM. LOVE HIM. LOVE HIM.
I went to Burgh Island yesterday .. Place is even better now that Ben has sung about it :)
This guy is unreal...so dimensional. Seeing him live just validates that.
Saw this live in Manchester last night, i cannot get over how talented this man is. I love this song as it shows his voice veriations reflecting acctually how good a musician he is. I am in love with the difference of the new EP which excites me for his next album. I also think that it is an inreadible achievement that Ben can play both electric and acoustic so succesfully! Such a beautiful song.
on the biggest comedown from Ibiza and this song is keeping me alive.
whoever is that woman he is singing about, I´m sure that she is one of the luckiest in the world.
love.
Ill love Ben's music to the end no matter Acoustic or electric his music is his music and i respect that! :)
I just had to grab my Cello and jam to this spontaneaously. Thank you, Ben, for this wonderful experience!
I think Monica makes the song so much more beautiful. Be respectful. Ben chose her to partake in the song for a reason.
Didn't think he could another song that I'd like as much a Promise but this one is probably my favourite so far. Although I did love "London" from an earlier E.P but can't order it anywhere.
this is the best ep released in 2012...! so calm, so beautiful and touching!
I don't have words to describe the amazingness of those songs!
Possibly my favourite song of his
Lovely song for the soul 💙 Thanks for sharing your Art, your feeling for music, your inspiration...
ben n his group deserve all the success they get, not normally my type of music like but i've pritty much fell in love with his music. keep it up benny boy
1 million+ views and I'm pretty sure 950,000 of them are me... favourite song for me by far :))))
She is amazing
Listen this song again after yearss what a masterpiece 👏 ❤
i listen to this every night. Something about being tired and listening to beautiful music brings all my emotions out
One of his best!
Their voices are such effective analogues of one another!
omg omg omg i love it i love it i love it. everything i have heard by this man i have loved.
Saw Ben perform this live for one of the first times at the Vic here in Chicago!!
I was swoon along with everybody I was with. Ben, you are truly amazing, and one of the very few artists who I would consider better live than digital.
My God! It''s so hard to choose a favorite song from him! I mean i haven't found a single Ben Howard song that sucked so.. Well this one has been on repeat for days so maybe this is my favorite? I love this song so much, it's dark yet sweet and damn, that part where Monica jumps in, just WOW. This guy is pure talent. This bigger selfish part of me don't want him to go on mainstream. Ben is ours people... so no mainstream please it will ruin everything!
I think we got our wish
I fall asleep every time I listen to this beautiful creation!
this song is just pure peace to me... i go to a place, witch i wont say and this song just takes my mind and puts me pure at ease
Oh Ben, your voice and music touches me in such deep way. I've experienced so many beautiful moments out in nature and your music always witnessing them..
Going to Burgh Island on the 12th July :-)
dont die
This is just so beautifully dark and magical, imagine just being in his head for a day...
Well said :) The depth to his lyrics seem unending, and allow everyone to find the meaning they're looking for.
it hit 3.30 and I just died. Ben Howard defines beauty.
Looooooveee this song. When i first heard it i cry, its so emotional
I listened all the way to the end, last bit made me smile :)
This makes me cry. In a good way :)
That harmony fk. That's it
