Добавлен 11 ноя 2006
Minute Taker (aka Ben McGarvey) is an 80-inspired, queer artist from Manchester, UK. His latest irresistibly nostalgic synth-pop album 'Wolf Hours' features the singles 'Lead You Home', 'The Darkest Summer' and 'After The Rain' (featuring Bright Light Bright Light) which has received airplay on BBC Radio 2.
Aside from two previous acclaimed albums ('Last Things' and 'Too Busy Framing'), several EPs and official remixes for Yazoo & Erasure, Minute Taker has gained a reputation for his inventive cover versions of classic songs by some of his favourite artists including Kate Bush, Madonna, Depeche Mode, Tori Amos & Pet Shop Boys. Many of these were recorded exclusively for 'Secret Songs', a series of homemade albums available for fans via a Patreon-esque subscription service.

Thought I'd celebrate 50 years since ABBA's glorious win at the Eurovision Song Contest by covering one of my all-time favourites of theirs ✨LAY ALL YOUR LOVE ON ME✨ I've never actually covered one of their songs before and I've always loved the synth part on this song so much, so I decided to do a synth / vocal version. Hope you like it. Ben 😃 MINUTE TAKER LINKS Get 5 FREE Minute Taker songs a...

❤ magnifique interprétation ❤ c'est l'une de mes chansons qui ont marqué ma vie. ❤ Bravo à toi et un grand merci ❤ Patrick
Thanks to Bright Light Bright Light for recommending this artist. Both video and music is top notch!
just discovered the song and can't stop listening; the voice, the sound, the storyboard... seems the world is a place full of stories of missed opportunities ...
Truly mesmerizing, it's hard to decide when to stop the loop! ❤
keep coming back to this song
Wonderful as always! I would love to hear you sing to my piano instrumental of Here In My Head :) you’re just amazing. "Here In My Head”| Tori Amos Piano Cover by Josh Morphis ruclips.net/video/9UakdafG_HE/видео.html

I’ve not heard this before, sounds great to me. Kate Bush was/is my favourite artist, the kick inside, first time I heard her she just blew me away
You never grew up in the 80’s!
Born 81 😃
@@MinuteTakerMusic really, you don’t look it.

Thank you 😀
Lovely tune 🎵 ❤

You are beautiful Ben, so is the arrangement on the song.

That confused me, I thought the old guy was you and I was thinking, he’s kissing himself. He’s in love with himself.
I might like this more than the first song you sent me / keep going
Wow wow wow, Ben that’s fantastic. I love it. Is it on the new album?
Thank you! This in on my most recent album 'Wolf Hours'😀
@@MinuteTakerMusic That's fantastic then I will really enjoy listening to it Ben.

Thank you! 😀
Sounds great Ben.
Thank you 😃
This song made me cry so because it is the full story and its relatable in many accounts and it's what we regret not doing in the past which affects the person the most

Well, ever since the film “Drive” was released I’ve found in me a true love for the nostalgia of the wonderful 80’s synth-pop. This hits the right spot and the vocals are of a perfectly fitting dreamy quality + I’m also currently rocking a nice tash. By now, most of those views are mine, I’m certain of it.
Thank you 😀🙏
This is so amazing ❤
Thank you! 😀
My God! How did I not know you yet? Your music is wonderful!!! BRASIL!!! ❤🇧🇷❤🇧🇷
Aw… thanks so much 🙏😀
Many of these young men went to the field at the age of 19-25. There must have been many of such encounters happened during the war. Lovely story telling video. Subtle but powerful.
Thank you. Yes, can you imagine? It's so awful to think of all of those young lives lost or ruined.
Terrific job.
Thank you! 😀
Show ❤❤❤
J'adore Abba et j'adore ton cover Ben et ta voix, friendly from France
Merci beaucoup! 😃 🙏
