Alec Benjamin Sings Bazzi, Justin Bieber, and "Jesus In LA" in a Game of Song Association | ELLE

- All it took was one tweet. Last September, Alec Benjamin asked #SongAssociation alum Alessia Cara if she'd be open to a collaboration. One feature later, Benjamin's breakout hit, "Let Me Down Slowly" reached platinum status, and catapulted him - and his guitar - to headline status. He's now performing in the same venues he used to sing outside of, and joining the likes of John Mayer, centerstage. For our latest episode of Song Association, he sings Bazzi, Bieber, and tells us the story behind his latest hit, "Jesus In LA."

“You don’t get points for knowing cereal” -Alec Benjamin 2019
🤣🤣🤣
I would have gave him the point anyway 😂
So true he is baby
Alec: Doesn't know lyrics
Also Alec: Over-glorified mumbling
don’t we all do that
Baby Alex is so baby
did he just say... A SONG WITH JIMINNNNN
So excited Love Jimin and Alex so baby
Yes 😔
Alec : “I don’t even know a song with touch in it”
Also Alec: “he was in a hurry to be TOUCHING her skin” (Water Fountain)
gabriela aguilera I was thinking of thattt
I was thinking about that. How'd you know?
Same, I just didn’t knew which song it was...
I mean I knew he had a song with «touch» in it
gabriela aguilera that was touching not touch exactly tho
CAN WE ALL AGREE HE IS SUCH A CUTIE PIE
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
👇🏼
Right
Definitely
Yesss
he’s so sweet i actually cant
Eleanor Josefina Model & CZcamsr yass
“Touch”
“And he was in a hurry to be touching her skin.” Water Fountain- Alec Benjamin
"I can feel the distance in your touch"- match in the rain
@@JEsusCHriSTamen666Yesss that’s what I instantly thought of
Alec: I don't even know a song with the word "touch."
Me: *cough*WATER FOUNTAIN*cough*
ye
Omg, I was thinkin that too 😂
I was thinking of the exact same thing 😭
CORONA
wait touching counts
Absolutely no one:
Alec Benjamin : OHH MAN
In all his livestreams: Yooooo😂
I’m not ready for him and Jimin to collab. Two of my favorite artists I I can’t
Dylan Alvarez ahh same, hope it’s soon! 💀
He is so baby
My bias and one of my favourite singers, ill die
how the- can i not know about this until nowwww
hoping for it from this moment till the eternal
OMG THEYRE THE SAME PERSON YO WHAT
"My dream collaboration is with Jimin of BTS"
Imagine his voice and jimins voice mixed together,jimin can hit notes higher than a femal soprano.
And Alecs voice is a little deeper than Jimins but a soft and a little deep voice mixing together sounds amazing.If you want a demo of how jimins voice sounds with a deep voice i recommend you listen the song on their album of Map Of The Soul 7,Friends it's with another member with a deep voice name V or Taehyung so you'll get a demo of how it will sound.
(Also if anyone hurts alec you have 2 seconds to run)
i do think female sopranos are the ones that can do high notes without using falsetto but using chest voice easily. also sopranos are the ones that can reach whistle register either easily or hard-
@Linsz 26 have a nice day too
yas
HA! HAKDOG
I highly disagree about jimin hitting high note than SOPRANOS 🖐🏼tap tap hold up wait a minute.
A--- NO for this.
SnS
As soon as it was “touch” my brain went to “CUZ EVERY TIME WE TOUCH I GET THIS FEELING!”
AND EVERYTIME WE KISS I SWEAR I CAN FLYYY
@@demoaillidari3538 CAN'T YOU HEAR MA HEART BEAT FAST
@@fathimanoorah4678 I WANT THIS TO LAST
Media Mokhtarnia NEED YOU BY MY SIDE
Baby Alex is such a baby soooo baby
"I was thinking of the cereal the whole time but that's not a song. You don't get points for knowing cereal".
This is so precious.
Alec has the cutest laugh and personality in the world
Yes
So true he is a baby
Ikrr
“Idk songs with touch in it”
How about:
Just the touch of your love is enough to knock me off of my feet all week 🎶
“he was in a hurry to be touching her skin” water fountain by alec benjamin
WHAT ABOUT LOVE ME LIKE YOU DO NO ONE THINKS ABT IT THAT BOTHER ME
seokjin’s joke that no one laughed abt lmaoo that’s actually so tru tho...
Invisible touch by Phil Collins?
“Tell me girl if every time we - tou- u - ouch you get this kinda ru-u-sh”
Alec when he talks: sounds normal
Alec's singing voice: *angelic and high-pitched*
bro I love his voice it's so unique
Maybe computer modified high pitch?
Yesss, but tbh, when I first heard it, I thought "ooh, singing mice" now he's my favourite singer.
@@AnonymousBooklover-ec3kx singing mice hahaha, yeah hes also my fav singer
@@ariellenahh :D what's your favourite song from the new album?
Mine is The arsonist.
Take a shot everytime he says "Oh man" or "Oh no". He's so adorable😂
This feeling by the chainsmokers is the song he‘s looking for 😂
"They got their hands at my neck ... " so he technically got the point hahaha
Clara I have no idea why he didn’t get the point
Angeline Bena ikr
@ELLE GIVE.THIS.MAN.THE POINT.HE.DESERVES. 😒
i used to do musically and i love that song,amd when he didnt get the point i was like WHATT!!!?!?!
Ahaha. I got to that point while a read that comment. It's This Feeling by the Chainsmokers right?
he should have got the point for hand, he was trying to sing “The Feeling”-The Chainsmokers
I think it's actually "this feeling" and it's featuring Kelsey ballerini (sorry, I really like country so I want to give her credit)
@@vivianlynn7061 yeah I knew he was singing that.
vivian lynn Baby he is such a baby
he shouldve sang if we have eachother
When he couldn’t find a song with the word “take”
-I believe he has just been rickrolled
TAKE ON MEEEEEEE, TAKE ON ME!
TAKE ME TO CHURCH, ILL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES
Take a chance, take a chance on me
I'm about to take you back to church😔
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live. Oh, take, take, take it all, but you never give
love how he doesn’t know half of the lyrics😂💕 he is so pure
the sass how is he pure if he doesn’t know half of the lyrics ?😂 like wtf not to be rude I really love his music 🎶
If he and Jiminie make a collab together the song will be soo good, bc their voices are gonna sound so good together.
I can't believe that my comment hit 1k likes lol 💜
Ikr I actually said "jimin" before he said it n when he did i screeched
facts
@@x.mono.x4011 same
Honestly 💜💜💜
Exactly!!! I can't wait 😍
In hand:
"Would you hold my hand"
If I killed someone for you - Alec Benjamin
Erika Guerrero and ‘i will be your mother and i’ll hold your hand’ - if we have eachother by Alec too
"When I shook hands with the devil down on the south side and he bought us both a drink" -Jesus in LA
Wow so many of his songs have hand
He is so baby Love him Alrx
"Sunset"
Nobody:
Me: TELL ME HAVE YOU SEEN A SUNSET TURN INTO A SUNRISE KISS RIGHT THROUGH THE NIGHT
Cynthia Williamson CAUSE WE SHOULD TRY THAT SOMETIME, HOLD YOU TIL THE MORNING, AND IF I SAID IM FALLING WOULD YOU JUST REPLY, I KNOW YOU ARE BUT WHAT AM I
@@elenachase73 I'm so happy I'm not the only one who's mind went there.
@@cynthiawilliamson570 i love why don't we!
@@elenachase73 I do too, I just havent seen them in concert.
@@cynthiawilliamson570 Neither have I, but I really want to
When he sang the Jesus in LA song, it was just like the studio version.
yeah ppl are crazy when they say it’s auto tune like…😂
I can’t be the only one who belted “Take on meeeeeee”
OMG that's exactly what I did!!!!! No wayyyy
You're Wrong me too 😂
Same
You're Wrong stop stalkingg
I ABSOLUTELY DID
0:49 My little Jimin biased, he is so cute.
GOD HEAR ME, I NEED IT. PLEASEEEEEE
I met alec back in like 2016 at vidcon and hung out with him and he's such a genuinely nice and talented person I really hope he gets all the recognition he deserves
In the song he sang earlier, Alone by Bazzi there was the word "touch"
"so when we finish touching, girl I'm all alone"
If you want the word "Touch"
You have Little Mix-Touch
Just the touch of your love is enough to knock me off of my feet all week............
@@djarthounahmed3259 yess, I love that song!
Or in dazed and confused by ruel :))
"everytime we touch, i get this feeling. and everytime we kiss" Cascada haha
@@aleidarts omg It's so rare to see fellow fans of ruel in other comments
HI
I love his eyes, his simile, his laugh... EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM
3:11 by the melody, I'm guessing the song is "This Feeling" Chainsmokers and Kelsea Ballerini.
Nobody:
Literally nobody:
Alec every time: OHHHH, MAN
True so true
I would love a collab with Jimin 💜they voices would harmonize so good
Agree
Agreed
That would be fun
Yesss💜
I really hope they collab
I've been listening his songs for 6 years now and I am absolutely in love with all his lyrical masterpieces. So here are some of Alec's own lyrics for each word he didn't sing his songs for!!
1. Alone: She'd never be alone...have someone to hold and when nights were cold she'd say // If we have each other ❤️
2. First: She can't remember all the movies that we watched at home like 50 first dates, I love her the same (a song he wrote for his grandma) // 50 First Days ♥️
3. Kiss: Now he's grabbing her hips, and pulling her in...Kissing her lips, and whispering in her ear // The Water Fountain 💙
4. Always: I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side // If we have each other ❤️
5. Touch: He was in a hurry to be touching her skin // The Water Fountain 💙
6. One: Come the lightning and the thunder. You're the one who'll suffer // Boy in the Bubble 💛
7. Hand: Would you hold my hand? They're the same ones that I used...when I killed someone for you // If I killed someone for you 🖤
8. Take: "Take the fruit, it's good for you" Steve said, "I beg your pardon..." // Steve 💚
9. Walk: I'm rinsing off my clothes and I'm walking through the halls // If I killed someone for you 🖤
10. Smile: She doesn't notice me she just smiles and says "Thank you for the Trigonometry"// Annabelle's Homework 💜
11. Call: So I called up my mom and I was bawling on the phone. I was acting like a child but I was all the way grown // Worst Day of my Life 💔
He's literally the purest human being in the whole world 🥺❤
he's just such a sweetheart.
JIMIN ALEC BENJAMIN COLLAB IS COMING I AM DYING
For real
M T IM SO EXCITED
YESS
Might be the announcement due today.
Nobody:
Alec: it's my song
pls tell me i wasn't the only one who thought of "everytime we touch" when he got to 'touch'
oh my god same
Ok, but like his giggles throughout the video, SO cuteeeeee aww 😩🥺🥺🥺
It’s a crying shame that you came all this way cause you won’t find Jesus in LA.
0:48 your voice and jimin’s voice are so unique. I think a collab between both of you would be amazing, i think it would be magical 💛
no one:
me when the next word was “take”: TAKKKEE ONNNN MEEEEEE
TAKEEEEE MEEEEEE ONNNN
I started singing Elvis Presley
Word : touch
Me: “ cause everytime we touch I get this feeling “
I’m SO happy he’s on here that means you know he finally made it
Alec: “You got your hand on my something”
Me: 😳
M S do you know the name of that song?
@@laqcua2821 just look up the lyrics
@@laqcua2821 ya the name is 'the feeling' by chainsmokers
I FRICKIN CHOKED
nobody:
not a single soul:
literally no one:
*one*
me: YOU'VE GOT THAT ONE THING
Also nobody:
*HANDS*
me: SLOW HANDSSSS
Directioners where you at?
I was thinking the same thing, I was like, "dude,!! Slow hands!!!!. You've got that one thing!!!!!"
A Directioner here...
down: NOBODY CAN DRAG ME DOWNNNN
Delaney Myers hahaha!! Yessss 💗
im late but hereeee🥺
Alec: my dream collaboration is Jimin from BTS
Yeah who's is it not?
I appreciate this game very much. Please do with Selena Gomez.
yess that would be over the top amazing
So she will amaze us with her horrible voice.
@@diss5670 not horrible 🤐 with sweet voice
Oh yes
I'm not the only one who noticed how many times he said "oh mann"
When touch was up my first thought was: “just a touch of your love”
Yes my girl’s are amazing 😍
No one :
No one at all :
Alec: you don't get points for knowing names of cereal so.
He shouted out Jimin 💜💜💜💜 my heart
I've heard his name but he is so cute and pure and I'll be looking forward to that collaboration with jimin
“I was only thinking of the cereal the whole time” lmaooo 😂 such a pure wholesome guy ☺️
aw it’s so good to see him grow, if anyone deserves it then it’s him🥺❤️
3:38 I immediately sang “tell me have you seen the sunset turn into a sunrise, Lois right through the night”
Your a limelight?
His innocence and lightbulb 💡 moments are soooooo adorable!!!
I love his voice!!!!
Alex is a legend that needs to be heard!
he is literally so calming and pure
MAKE IT HAPPEN PLEASE! JIMIN with ALEC or BTS with ALEC please😭😭❤❤
Yeaaaah MAKE IT HAPPEN
“i was thinking of the cereal the whole time” lolllllll
his voice is so calming
He actually deserved 12 out of 15 because even though he couldn’t remember the name, he technically said the chainsmokers song correctly in the beginning which had the lyrics they were looking for
So finally someone didn’t sing Jay sean Down
True af
Right
Why doesn't someone sing:
'Don't let me Down'
'Drag me Down'
'Lay Me Down'
Aww he sang Alone by Bazzi, my fave song! So underrated❤️
he is so fkn chill. i love it
He is absolutely amaaazing. I can't express in words but his lyrics and voice absolutely beautiful
He has such a calming and soothing personality. I love it🖤
I have follow him for 4 years and I feel so proud of him🖤
I love this 💕
He deserves to be more known👏🏻
His voice is amazing and the lyrics of his music is the best.💖
OMG i love him soo much, i just were at one of his concerts and it was amazing!!! He can sing every song like it is in the studio version, he‘s soo pure and he can get the audience to interact with him and that was just sooo nice😍😍😍
Why Don't We: *Cold in La*
Alec Benjamin: *Jesus in La*
