It'd be better if he used a German accent.

Yeah.

This is a cover of a The Postal Service song, isn't? From Such Great Heights, I think it's called.

Different for sure. It's pretty cool. I'm not a big PS fan.

I love how he's playing 3 different instruments at once there.

BenJammin 10-24-2006 08:53 PM

Yes! Army!

Akira 10-24-2006 08:54 PM

We did this when I saw him. Good fun.

Army is one of my favorite Ben Folds songs.

Wonderful show. Only when I saw him some idiots were passing around a joint, and it was an indoor venue. I don't like the smell of pot.

That bass tone, man. Great.

Yeah, he's awesome.

Do you know how long this is going to last?
If I was less lazy I would get MyspaceIM and siggest a tune.
Rockin' w/o guitars is weird.

Maybe weird... but at least there's no goddamn keytar.

Akira 10-24-2006 09:01 PM

The bassist is playing a really simple version of this song. It's a shame, the album version has a killer bass line.

Akira 10-24-2006 09:01 PM

Ah man, the keytar makes the song.

[QUOTE=Akira;13504267]The bassist is playing a really simple version of this song. It's a shame, the album version has a killer bass line.[/QUOTE]

That's because Ben played the bass on the album.


The keytar makes me cry.

Spaceman Spiff 10-24-2006 09:03 PM

You two are boring.

Ben played like everything on the album.

How can you not love the keytar? It;s crucial. The cheese factor is what makes the song work. It just isn't right without keytar and guitar.
I love the part of the video with Weird Al as the producer.

I hope he does Bitches Ain't ****. And Battle of Who Could Care Less.

It's over?
Man.

Akira 10-24-2006 09:04 PM

Yeah, I know he played everything... but still. :p I hate keytar.

I was in a band for a little while with a piano player who used a keytar for some songs.

BenJammin 10-24-2006 09:06 PM

This song is so amazing. :lol:

The instrumentation and everything is really awesome to listen to, but the lyrics totally make the entire song.

I don't like Dr. Dre all that much, but it's great with Ben singing.

Wtf@the end?

The Brad 10-24-2006 09:11 PM

Man, I must have really pissed her off. She only started talking to me after I told her I sold my bass gear.

Yeah.

That was sweet. Too bad it was so short.

The Brad 10-24-2006 09:16 PM

Well her insurance was cancelled and she was bitching about it last night at dinner (for about the third time that day). Then she says she's going to have to get a job, and I tell her no one will hire her because she's 50. She thinks she can just go back out there and get a job after 15+- years of not working, I mean she can barely manage her own PC so I don't see how she could find a clerical job. Then she was like "I'll just work at Costco" and I smirked, it sent her through the roof. She came home last night like at 11, then left this morning before I woke up at 7 and came home just 30 minutes ago.

Plus, even if she was to get a job no one will insure her still. I think that's why I laughed.

Akira 10-24-2006 09:16 PM

Yeah. I should have requested Battle of Who Could Care Less.

BenJammin 10-24-2006 09:21 PM

[QUOTE=Akira;13504399]Yeah. I should have requested Battle of Who Could Care Less.[/QUOTE]

Yeah. The setlist definitely wasn't anything close to what I would have picked, but I'll live. I've got a live set of his almost downloaded. Just 1.5 songs to go.
