Omg yes
It bothers me that people only seem to be commenting on Ben's riffs and vocal quality. Don't get me wrong, he sings wonderfully, but this song is beautiful and deserves recognition. Alexander Sage Oyen: congratulations on such a heartfelt and moving song.

that's something I ALWAYS think about when some _____(anything) gets a lot of recognition. I definitely understand complementing someone on their ability to perform it as that's a very talented human as well, and it's well deserved... but somehow not much gets mentioned about who wrote it besides a "lyrics and music by" line. I think what actually gets to me is the whole culture of, especially when something really blows up, it's the one who performs the material (in all mediums) whose opinion people care about, about the material itself, and everything else. Like the material came out of them. It's just so odd to me. Not saying every writer cares, look at the entire pop music factory, but it always irked me. It's the writers material, sometimes ONE song/show makes bonifide stars out of the performers and doors open up everywhere... while the writers generally have to keep proving them self over and over again until their let's say, road to success MAY become less challenging for them. If ever. Woops, rant over.

Because the videos are usually about the performance… do you do this on beyonces videos for example? Just seems extremely targeted lol
Does anybody else see how attractive he is while singing with so much emotion.. damn. oh my god

I love how every time Ben sings he dosent just sing he performs and he cares like that's the only thing that matters in that moment and it's just breathtaking
*Probably the most ironic thing I've ever heard Benoncé say* Ben: "Is anybody listening to the song that I sing? Does anyone even know who I am?" Me and every other Fansie and anyone else who knows Ben: Are we a joke to you?

well - its not so ironic anymore - im the only one i personally know who is obsessed with him and his angelic voice but i have so far only found 2 other people online ;-; JUSTICE FOR BENONCE IN 2024!
his ability to hush a crowd and leave them speechless in awe with the "mere" power of singing/music is the most gratifying thing ever
I decided to watch this because he looked cute as hell in the thumbnailbut now I am having a religious experience. The second one in less than two weeks (lookimg at you, Taylor Louderman). My bisexual ass _cannot_ handle all these talented theatre people.

Benyonce!
beautiful how the audience gets quiet, his ability to capture attention is mesmerizing and his voice is magical
I just want to know, is this a song about doubting God? Yes Ben sang it so beautifully but I think the people enjoying his performance forget the sadness and doubt in the song. And for me that's what made this even better
i will always be extremely intimidated by ben's riffs hahaha
"would you give a damn?" *me, in tears:* yes, absolutely
Go and look it up the poor guys head is spinning That poor guy is me. My head cannot comprehend how beautiful this boy can sing and therefore is freaking out. I love Ben Fankhauser.

Underrated comment
Every time I see the sunset I look for something more in it As if something will pop out to me right there The paper and the tv Well they all wanna save me They point me towards the sunset So I stare Is anybody listening? To the song that I sing Does anyone even know who I am? If I sing hallelujah Right on up to ya Would your angles even give a damn When the cowards turn to soldiers To solve all their problems I wonder what I'm supposed to believe And the news reporters set the blame For people who don't think the same I wonder what their trying to achieve Is anybody listening? To the song that I sing Does anyone even know who I am? If I sing hallelujah Right on up to ya Would your angles even give a damn Would you give a damn (2x) I don't know what I'm supposed to do I want so much to believe in you But it's hard when there's no justice for the thief Staring at the sunset from my roof Looking for some kind of proof When there's none in sight I guess that's called belief So is this belief? Is anybody listening? To the song that I sing Does anyone even know who I am? If I sing hallelujah Right on up to ya Would your angles even give a damn Would you give a damn (2x)

Every time i try to listen to this while working I get nothing done! I click on the video and see his face before i can click away and then his gorgeous bloody face keeps me from looking away the whole way through, even when he's not singing. He so incredible, it feels like he's bearing his entire soul.
I have listened to this on repeat for the last two days, and cannot get over how adorable the little screw-up at 0:30 was.

Omg I’m gonna cry and it just started
I've had this playing on repeat for the past 24 hours, as in at least 12 times today. Ben is so kind in person, so incredibly talented, and currently stuck in my head.
the two men in this world that own my heart are Ben Fankhauser and Ben Platt
Y'all it's not even a crush anymore I'm actually in frickin LOVE with him OMFG ♡♡♡

I've never seen his face from this close before and let me just say, its magnificent. I mean, it's like he's animated. I've never seen anybody like that.
Lol, not that I am any different, but the thirst is real in this comment section hahaha
I was lucky enough to meet him and he is so nice!!
So many people are listening, Ben. All of us
it's been 4 years and literally nothing else has ever come close to this performance
his riffs are probably my reason for living
Ugh wow I just watched this 3x in a row. So so good.
i adore this song. i want to sing it so bad.
He is literally flawless, God's hand slipped when he made Ben Fankhauser
don't mind me, i'm just sobbing over my laptop right now because damn he looks so heartbroken like A+ acting right there like fuck bless this angel.
I love how into the music he always gets. Like, wow. Just wow. His voice is amazing, and his emotion is beautiful. (Also, the way that he moves his arms when he sings high/loud parts oh my goodness he's adorable lol)

I listened to this song with my sister on Spotify the other day and I was like "this sounds like Ben Fankhauser and then she showed me the poster that said his name on it I was very happy, his voice is so magical
Listening to this while stretching in the dark in your room at 3am hits different.
This song is perfection....definitely going to by the sheets for this one! Perfect for my book!
He stared at the camera and I felt his stare into the deepest part of my soul
there goes our beautiful Benonce back at it again
Good God, that boy can sing!
Yes I would so fuckin give a damn... You are wonderful!
This song is so good. But I can't imagine anyone else singing this but Ben. But srsly, this song has that truth in it that it still gives me goosebumps. Alexander is amazing.
Absolutely love this . Listen to it all the time . He is so connected to the song .. Bravo
I've hit the replay button on this five times in a row. Help. I can't get enough of it.
i love how he is completely unfazed by all that cheering--he just stays so in it. amazing!
i was listening to this in class and i started to tear up and my teacher look at me like "wtf? this is a worksheet about colonial jobs why are you emotional?"
Just listened to this on Spotify. And all i can ever say is He cares for you dude. He cares for us. :)

So glad I have the privilege to see him in Newsies three times.
I absolutely love this song and i was wondering and hopping i could have the piano music to this song so i can share this incredible song with more people.
Ben Fankhauser's riffs are all i need in life
There's a sincerity about him in his singing that is so endearing.
