I liked him before, but I think that now I will become a big fan. His humor is so dry and he's so talented. The crowd was beyond enthralled with him. He had Rufus come back out and they did a "Carless Whisper" cover. VOTE....EARLY | |

Songs for Silverman was really overlooked in terms of exposure.. I dont think Ben is up to all the ass kissin.. but this album needed more recognition.. Possibly his best set of music.
Top tracks Jesusland Bastard Gracie Give Judy My Notice Sentimental Guy Time Prison Food (probably his best written song..) | |

[Edited 8/22/05 11:35am] Ben Folds (Five) are good, but in the end it just makes me wanna listen to Todd Rundgren instead. | |

I'm a fan.  He really is amazing live. I've seen him twice now when it was just him and his piano. He's touring through here in late October but I think I may have to miss this one.
I haven't given Songs for Silverman a fair shake. I listened to it once thorugh and that was all. I should pull it back out... |

Ill have to check him out... The best stuff to get: Rock'n The Suburbs - Ben does everything.. very upbeat songs.. lots of piano. not a filler track on the album. oh by the way.. ben does no filler. Songs For Silverman - he calls it the songs he sang at home.. very personal stuff if u ask me.. I like it the seriousness of it. Super D ep - get it on iTunes. nice stuff.. he even did a ray charles cover on it. Sunny 16 - ben did all instruments here also. Nice collection of songs. also.. there is a Ben Folds Live cd out where its a live concert of just him and a piano. There is also a new DVD comin out in 2 months of just him and a piano.. and an orchestra behind him. amazing.. thats a good start [Edited 9/28/05 8:47am] | |

[Edited 9/28/05 8:47am] Cool, thanks, ill see about that! Definantly do so.. I always thought Bens music is a must.. I wasnt sure when I first got into him.. infact it took me a lot of listens.. but once I did.. I craved his craft in music.. very interesting edgy person. | |
