Benjamin Sainte-Clémentine (; born 7 December 1988) is an English artist, poet, vocalist, composer, and musician.Born and raised in London, England, Clementine later moved to Paris, France becoming homeless as a teenager. There, his performances helped him to become a cult figure in the music and art scene. Moving back to London, he made his TV debut on the BBC programme Later With Jools Holland in 2013. A number of critics described him as becoming one of the great singer-songwriters of his generation and the future sound of London, whilst struggling to place his music in any one genre.Considered by The New York Times as one of the 28 geniuses who defined culture in 2016, Clementine's compositions are musically incisive and attuned to the issues of life but … more »

Never in the field of human affection had so much been given for do few attention
Never in the field of human affection had so much been given for so few attention 
Winston Boy
Oh!
There he is 
Wasting no time, packing.
Alone
You could mistake the sounds of a clock ticking for a cricket cricketing when around him.
 
But I swear!
No body knows what's on this boys mind,
Nobody sees what he's been picturing.
 
(He moans)
 
''We all make a living by what we get,
but we make life by what we give.
In some special circumstance, 
this special circumstance,
Winston Boy will have to earn a living before he-earns-enough-living to give''
 
'Where is your family, 
Where are your love ones?',someone uttered, whilst-he-went-on-crossing the channel 
'Well they say no man can be a prophet in his own country-and-so I left and here I am
Come on embrace me!
I am your brother!
Now Whilst he kept on talking,
In his left pocket laid the prose of the magnificent Orwell,
His right hand embraced a battered guitar borrowed, 
'borrowed from me!'
Come to think about it, i think a few days ago I heard him talk about how God-blessed-an-eagle-with-54-stars.
And so maybe he's gone, he's gone wondering around looking for his kind of star 
But even stars 
if we think about, even beautiful stars 
They tend to shoot through the night and you will never find them again!
Never and never and never again!
And so don't you judge Winston Boy, don't you ever judge Winston boy
 
Cause one day this boy might be the man 
Though clearly nobody knows when nor how 
One day this boy will stand in front of a pulpit as the world gives him but a minute
And there he will tell the world where he's been and how
Underground to upper ground in the depths of I will surely survive 
He shares his story with a cup of tear streaming from his eyes 
One day this boy will be fine
One day this boy will be fine 
So you better watch out now that day might be today!
