Idk how to explain the feelings this man’s music give me. Every single song Ben makes is a freaking masterpiece and I can’t wait for Reverie to be out!! I also hope he can go on tour soon🥺 I wasn’t able to go to the Sing To Me Instead Tour

[@andreaxxxedge]

Same! I can’t wait for this tour. I don’t care what the ticket price is or how far I have to drive.

[@jasminex3633]

Same!! Never got to see him on his last tour, hoping that I will be able to see him when he next goes on tour

[@marshakatrinatacadao7693]

Hello fellow swiftie!!!! I feel the same!!!

[@Lea-gd7zl]

i hope he comes to Europe. sing to me instead never ceases to make me cry - I discovered his music last February after seeing him in the politician in 2019 and I still can't listen to some songs without sobbing, he always finds the right words somehow. if I ever had to explain some emotions, I'd definitely use Ben's music to do so (especially "better" - there's stuff I can't express in my own words🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️)

[@mirtegeerts8025]

His voice is just magic 🌟

i know its pretty much half of the ads i get now and im so happy to watch it each time lol as im writing this it came on again

This reminds me so much of my long distance relationship. After we spend a week together, sleeping in the same bed, eating good food, going on adventures I always feel like this. I know I’m going to have this song on repeat to remind myself that it will be happy again and the reason I’m sad is a good one; I miss him loads

[@littletheatrefreak]

I just woke up (I'm from Germany) and hear this. Today is going to be a good day and here's why: I love this song so much!

The reflections of sadness on our souls leave scars in the long run. It is nice when a musical background softens these reflections and thus prevents scars from forming.

I'm addicted! ❤ Damn, man... How is it possible that I've never heard before about your music?!?!? Just recently I got YT recommendation for one of your videos... Your songs hit me like an electric shock through my heart... OMG, I'm so addicted, it's mind-blowing! 😍 You got another fan! 😊 I remember you from the TV show "Will & Grace", being a guest in one episode as Will's young love interest, with such iconic lines like "OMG, older guys are so dramatic" and "I'm sorry I'm not a history puff", you were amazing! 🤩 Anyway, your music is a huge surprise for me!
