Ben Howard - BBC Radio 1 Interview - What A Day

[@rivaldotadeo2582]

he disappears and comes back once in a while and delivers greatness

[@dobromirgospodinov2042]

What a way to come around

[@millielovesmusic]

Iam happy he is doing fine. I saw him in 2018 in cz. He doesnt looked too happy that day. Iam just happy to hear him talking about his plans and Iam stoked to see him again after that whole covid thing is over

[@Crimsonzs]

The fucking greatest of all time is back. Who is excited for a studio version of Rooks/Untitled? 😭

[@dobromirgospodinov2042]

Maaaaaaate

[@boondocksaint4977]

I've been almost praying for that song to be released.....its epic!

[@joelee5038]

I think you might just be 100% correct with him being the greatest of all time. I can't think of any single musician whose genius reaches his levels. He's got music pouring out his soul.

[@amalofoto]

This single has a way happier sound than Ben's usual stuff, but also feels more like his first albums than the very produced sound of the last two. I love everything he puts out, can't wait to hear the new album. Though I sure hope there's some less upbeat songs on there than "what a day" ;) And big thanks to you, kier!!

[@Giouli10]

Absolutely loved the new album "Collections From the Whiteout" !!! Favourites at the moment are : Sage That She Was Burning You Have Your Way Rookery Metaphysical Cantations Make Arrangements Also, Far Out variations volume 1... I can't stop listening to this song over and over again! Imagine how good these songs will be at the livestream from Goonhilly Earth Station 💫

After Folklore and Evermore, Aaron Desner is working with another icon to grace us with yet another masterpiece. He's really killing it this past year!

[@60secondpages]

Music is at its best when you listen and feel no pain for a moment. Many of Ben's songs achieve this.

[@deanbowman1652]

I love Ben Howard my favourite artist. I listened to this song for the first time and loved it straight away. How can one man have such a impact on you just writing a song? Can’t wait to here the rest of the album.

[@deanbowman1652]

♥️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍

[@TheFrigidsnow]

So nice hearing from him again.

[@lw48wp4]

I'm already addicted to this and Crowhurst's Meme! ... But somehow I can't help feeling that they would sound even better with Chris Bond on the drums... I terribly miss Chris' contribution to Ben's music. Does anyone know where he is and what he does now? I wold love to hear some of his tasteful drumming again.

[@eubilla]

This makes me feel so good. Bennie!!!! thanks for comming back!!!

Kind of a shame there's no camera footage. The Noonday Dream interview was great.

If he was with Aaron, there’s a chance Justin might feature here! Also good to hear TITK will be there too, her new record was great.

Big Ben Howard fan. Hated the music video and just wasn’t keen on the song. Don’t think he ever hit the nail on the head after Every Kingdom!

[@kier.]

Good one.

[@mattmota3848]

What happened to this guy? Every Kingdom was a Masterpiece...everything after that is hot garbage. This is un-listenable...

[@kier.]

what drugs you taking

[@mattmota3848]

@@kier. lol...apparently not enough. Look it’s only my opinion. I think he sounds like Kermit the Frog on tranquilizers on this new track. Every Kingdom was incredible...but the last 2 records (especially “I forget where we were”, sounds like he was ready to jump off a bridge) were a complete detour from the magic that was created on that album.

[@gracewillis5303]

@@mattmota3848 what?? The album I forget where we were is a masterpiece! The song is my favourite song of all time... so confused by your comment. I mean you’re entitled to your opinion I just don’t get it lol

[@ryanadams8616]

I agree, he never delivered anything even near the quality of Every Kingdom which built his original loyal fan base. Even the burgh island EP wasn't the same. Just not the same guy we fell in love with

[@kier.]

@@ryanadams8616 You fell in love with the album not the person. how can you be a "loyal fan" if you dont like anything other than EK. makes no sense.
