I feel like he's been performing the song slower and slower as time goes on (if you were to compare this to the album version, or to a live performance from 8 months ago where he also slows it down). I think the manipulation/flexibility of the tempo demonstrates what the song says conceptually. I've always loved this song, but I appreciate the way different versions speak to me about my experience/perception of time during the depressive episode I'm going through. It's as if the song changes with me.
Can't wait to see the next new album. Every kingdom and then I forget where we were were an completely evolution of the mentality about music: new sounds, atmosphere. I'm curious to see next album !
me too! that album must be great! and i forget where we were album atmosphere... so nice, i love the new sounds and the songs are just incredible... best artist by far in my ranking haha
I lived to tell. Winter show in Italy 🇮🇹 and an acoustic version of this song. I just wanna go back and share your smile, my beloved aunt Ana. From summertime in Brasil 🇧🇷 2023. And I still have SO MANY WORDS aunt.
Oh, hey I wasn't listening I was watching Syria blinded by the sunshine strip And you, you were in the kitchen Oh, your mariner's mouth The wounded with the wounder's whip And that's how summer passed oh The great dividing range of green, green grass Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew Hello love, my invincible friend Hello love, the thistle and the burr Hello love, for you I have so many words But I, I forget where we were Oh, hey I wasn't listening I was stung by all of us The blind leading out the bored And as per usual You were skipping and laughing eyes at the bedroom door "Don't take it so seriously, no Only time is ours, the rest we'll just wait and see!" Maybe you're right, babe, maybe Oh, no, and that's how summer passed Oh the great dividing range, the green green grass And, oh, maybe I hold on fast to you Hello love, my invincible friend Hello love, the thistle and the burr Hello love, for you I have so many words But I, I forget where we were I, I forget where we were I forget where we were I forget where we were Oh, no, and that's how summer passed Oh, your, great dividing range, the green green grass Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew
Are you f*cking kidding me? Playing with his hand upside down now? While casually chewing gum and dishing out flawless vocals? Just when we thought Ben couldn't get any more amazing.
@@James-616 not really. People like niki Minaj and autotune sh** get all the attention when this dudes is out here making multiple masterpieces. Guitar genius and singing flawlessly with gum in his mouth. Whtas happened to the world
@@kyerogers7838 You’re moaning about Pop singers and saying “what has happened to the world” If that’s not shoving it in people’s faces I don’t know what is lol And he really isn’t underrated
jeppep95 the slides on the a and e string on the main riff are very difficult to preform holding the neck normally as you can’t help but mute the open strings because of position you’re fingers and hand are in... so I believe to achieve the best possible sound he plays it this way. Very cool technique to be honest!
He actually said when he performed this song either on the late late show or some other American talk show, his hands/fingers are too small to play the notes correctly, so he had to play it over the neck as opposed to under it.
this song is a masterpiece. i listen to it religiously
Hell ye
LIKWEWISE
As do I 😊
There's no one else like him. This music is in a class of its own.
Ben Howard is unequivocally one of the greatest artists of our time. We are so lucky to live in the era of this once in a lifetime musician.

Seen Ben live a few times, he's incredible. I think i have had his album on repeat for the last 18 months. exceptional talent.
Can't wait to see the next new album. Every kingdom and then I forget where we were were an completely evolution of the mentality about music: new sounds, atmosphere. I'm curious to see next album !

The wait is almost over 2018
So what do you make of his new song then?
How do you like the new album?
Love the new album!! Needs several listenings to appreciate it in its real value though
he just takes my breath away

It's amazing. They seemed to feel each other's music and create something magical.
Oh, hey
I wasn't listening
I was watching Syria blinded by the sunshine strip
And you, you were in the kitchen
Oh, your mariner's mouth
The wounded with the wounder's whip
And that's how summer passed oh
The great dividing range of green, green grass
Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew
Hello love, my invincible friend
Hello love, the thistle and the burr
Hello love, for you I have so many words
But I, I forget where we were
Oh, hey
I wasn't listening
I was stung by all of us
The blind leading out the bored
And as per usual
You were skipping and laughing eyes at the bedroom door
"Don't take it so seriously, no
Only time is ours, the rest we'll just wait and see!"
Maybe you're right, babe, maybe
Oh, no, and that's how summer passed
Oh the great dividing range, the green green grass
And, oh, maybe I hold on fast to you
Hello love, my invincible friend
Hello love, the thistle and the burr
Hello love, for you I have so many words
But I, I forget where we were
I, I forget where we were
I forget where we were
I forget where we were
Oh, no, and that's how summer passed
Oh, your, great dividing range, the green green grass
Oh, maybe it was peace at last, who knew
***** he he he

I‘m convinced he is a genius
My favourite artist of all fucking time. Absolutely sensational musician.

Ben Howard The Master multitasker.... chewing gum while singing and playing a ridiculous guitar phrase........ speechless 😶

ELMORE Wow i wasn't expected to see great artists listening to others great artists ...
This was soooo good!

Saw him do this live at Eden project a few years ago. Different class 👏
THIS SONG REPEAT IT SELF LIKE 10 TIMES WHEN YOU PLAY THE FULL LIST!!!!!!

This is perfect!
So underrated.
He’s the opposite of underrated lol
@@James-616 not really. People like niki Minaj and autotune sh** get all the attention when this dudes is out here making multiple masterpieces. Guitar genius and singing flawlessly with gum in his mouth. Whtas happened to the world
@@kyerogers7838
He’s a successful musician, so he’s not underrated
Let people like what they like man
You can’t shove things in people’s faces
@@James-616 I'm not shoving it in anyone's face. I'm just saying that he is underrated.
@@kyerogers7838
You’re moaning about Pop singers and saying “what has happened to the world”
If that’s not shoving it in people’s faces I don’t know what is lol
And he really isn’t underrated
This guys our springteen!!
Genius! 🙌🏻
Wrought voice, deep words to wonder, musicality..
masterpiece!❤️🎥👍
Very talented and so attractive. He’s my crush x
My favorite sad song of all times
he really looks hotter than usual
Some talent the boy
✨schön✨
Mickey Smith is the man
How do you sing with a gum in your mouth..
As always, captivating.
Class 🤟
Ben ♡
Is no one talking about how fuckin WILD his guitar playing is??? What even is he doing?? I am astounded and need answers ASAP
He plays with different tunings and has cool effects on
You can get lots of different sounds that way 😆
I’d recommend it if you play guitar
I still find it so attractive the way he chews at the beginning, I'm sorry, I'm a big fan, I'll see myself out.
Girl, stop 4.29 I came to the comments to see if anybody else said 😍😍😍
@@taracoff6832 1.38 ...
mooood
my girlfriend left me to the sound of this song
Good riddance
that's sad bro...hope you got a new girlfriend in the meantime
1:45 that face
fk this vdeo it repeat itself like 7 times when i listen the playlist
I can't decide if I like it slightly slower, the melody and lyrics don't seem to flow quite as well. But it gives it a more intense feel
Quanto amor
💙💙💙💙💙💙
heartbreaking
Is this an old performance that has been re-uploaded? Publish date says April 2016 but this song isn't new.
+Bantham Legend Yes, old performance.
3 People to play Chris bonds part :)
👌👌👍👍😂😂😃
When was this?
+dOcToRcHaRiZaRd When he dit the Jessie Ware - Wildest Moments cover
Why does he play parts of the song with the hand over the guitar neck? instead of of the regular way of playing guitar?

That chewing gum though :')
Not one to question lyrics but ....I heard this might be reference to popular culture . Any ideas ?
he does mention being distracted by the tv at the start but I think this is a breakup song
I didn't know his guitar play is sick as Charlene Soraia's play
sounds like the studio version but better
First comment
Gawd! This and evergreen are better live.
.75 speed Bruce Springsteen 😂
