      Sorry, we still can't understand what you're saying. Please repeat yourself yet again.

          P.S - I like the Cure pun that you used (end of the world)....not sure if it was intentional or not, but still good!

    • Re: Ben Folds/Ben Folds Five

      Narcolepsy, no doubt at all. Cracking track.
      Amazing live too, shame we'll never get to hear it played again

    • Re: Ben Folds/Ben Folds Five

      My girlfriend plays 'Luckiest' at me, I don't really like the song but I appreciate the romantic sentiment.

      Personally, I love 'Jane', 'Missing The War' and 'Uncle Walter' by Ben Folds Five and 'In Love' by his Fear Of Pop project (featuring William Shatner for you 'Common People' fans).

        First BFF album is awesome. Total breath of fresh air in the barren indie-rock wasteland that was the mid-90's. My fave off that is "Alice Childress". He's just put out another EP with a cover of "Get Yr Hands Off My Woman". Which is OK is I suppose. Fans of Ben Folds might want to check out a band called Amateur Lovers from about the same time on Loose Groove records.

      Song For The Dumped

      • Re: Ben Folds/Ben Folds Five

        Not The Same is amazing live, but I'm a HUUGGGE fan of the alternate version of Song For The Dumped that he performs on the live DVD that comes with the Ben Folds Live CD...it's genius! "So here we get to the part in the song where we cut out three original words, but if there's one thing I've learnt from songwriting, is that if you simply state the truth you can't go wrong...I think Willie Nelson said that........ Youuuuuuuu.....Fuccckkking....Whoooreee....." The whole song is sang to a completely different tune to the original, for those that haven't heard it!
