Ben Rector is one of the classiest and talented artists I have had the pleasure of meeting in a long time.
Same here. the Lead singer of Casting Crowns is also incredibly talented. Both their voices are better than most.
I could listen to that song 100 times and it would still move me. The premise behind it is such a beautiful lost art--notice people and give them credit.
Ben, you-- withyour ability to weave words together into thought-provoking stories--are a national treasure.
Continue to be impressed with his songwriting and musicianship. His marked humility is the mark of someone who truly cares about the music.
Cheers to all the hard working men and women and to Ben for taking the time to recognize them while using his wonderful talent to bring it to life!! Music at its best.
Man...this really put an impact on me. I never had any thoughts on taxi drivers. I'll be honest I always thought they were scummy. This really changes my view on these hard workers.
He is My Newest favorite Singer & Song Writer
It's allways beautiful when a person is humbled, and notices the beauty in the people around them. It can happen everyday... what a kewl adventure! Love this story and song!
I just love him so much. Hands down my favorite artist. Went to his concert this week. Nothing will ever top it.
He's so great. I love his songs that touch deep but are still jammin
I’ve been a fan of Ben for years now. My husband & I danced to one of his songs as our first dance. He is so genuine & such a great guy!
Which song? It must've been amazing!
Very much a touch of the Billy Joels about this guy. And that's praise indeed!
Seriously.Ben. you break me an a person and man.
Thank you for the beauty and perspective.
All of the words
Talent AND Humility. So rare. Ben Rector is a down-to-earth awesome bundle of talent and fun. 😍
The simplicity and honesty of Ben's music touches the soul... Thank you Ben!!!
Came here because of Anthony Ramos' cover and I'm so glad I ended up here.
Roxanne S. Me too
Good contemporary music still exists!
What a freakinggggg song!!!! What a powerful song!
What an awesome song writer and singer. Thank you.❤❤❤
Ben seems like such a great guy. "Guys like Danny should have fans." So good.
I really hope Danny has heard this song.
Love ❤this! ❤. How there is only 36 comments..
Your story and performance is great, after my hero Harry Chapin.
This is an incredible story and song! Thankyou Ben!
Has danny heard this song? I hope he did
Howard has! (Check the comments on his recent video)
how have i not heard of Ben until today ? this is just awesome.
Who only needs to accompany himself or a small combo of 1 to 3 people to communicate an artful musical, and melodic verse.
Ben, you have blown me away with the story and the song you wrote devoted to Danny! Tears rolled down on my chicks whilst I listened to your song! it was tears of happiness, to see there are still people who care for others no matter what! Thanks, Danny! currently, I am going through a tumultuous time! being exactly like Danny! I take courses whenever I get the time, hoping to find my place! LOVE, PJ
This song fills me with emotion
An American storyteller!
Move over Marc Cohn, Bruce Hornsby, James Taylor Billy Joel and others for another simple but complex, talented pianist,guitarist and vocalist and songs with great stories, sentiment, and groove
Awesome
Best song ever. Thank you.

Shame on the 8 people who disliked this
MOVE OVER BRUCE HORNSBY, MARC COHN, JAMES TAYLOR, BILLY JOEL, MAC MACA ALLY, JOANNIE MITCHEL,L, AND MANY OTHERS. A SIMPLE BUT COMPLEX, SKILLED PIANIST, ACOUSTIC GUITARIST, WRITER WITH SONGS WITH GREAT STORIES, SENTIMENT, AND GROOVE.
Is that Cory Wong? Man he really held back on that tune.
rogue Cody Fry guitar in the background?
Looks like it
Also checkout Mac MACANALLY "IT'S MY JOB"
