    I want to watch the entire Ben Folds discography in this exact format. This was so fascinating and fun.

    If it weren't for Ben Folds, I would've never been born, because my parents met at their concert!

      And now, like The Beatles from my parents’ generation, you get to witness the greatest living songwriter. Well Ben and Neil Finn. But Ben is better at the instruments

    I love how much the camera is looked into, really adds a layer of intimacy! Ben Folds is such a brilliant songwriter, and his backing here is just fantastic.

    Ben Folds accidentally became a part of my music library when I saw his Songs For Silverman music book in NYC and a friend of mine told me to get it. I had never heard his music until then, and I instantly became obsessed. Such an amazing musician who will always remind me of the good and bad times of my young adult years. Thanks for continuing to tell unique and beautiful stories through your catchy tunes.

      And then he LOOKS INTO THE CAMERA?! The man is never out of form, but OH MY was he ever in top form on this recording. An honest-to-goodness virtuoso in a time where they're almost impossible to come by:)

    What is this?
    It doesn't make much sense
    They sing it like a pop song
    You're capable of anything
    And I'm sure they meant
    You could be president
    Or you could just forgive me
    But I stopped caring what you think about me
    I gave up
    We're told we are capable of anything
    But you don't seem to think that you are
    Capable of anything
    Swung and missed
    I put my heart in this
    Mythical, holy, good guy
    I want so bad to be
    But I was weak and wrong
    And when I owned it all
    It only made you righteous now
    You get to blame your life on me
    But I stopped caring what you think about me
    I gave up
    We're told we are capable of anything
    But you don't seem to think that you are
    Capable of anything
    You are capable of anything
    But you don't seem to think that
    You could fly so low or sink so high
    That you could ever love again or even try
    That you could steal, or cheat, or kill, or lie
    But you might
    Plz like this took 10 mins 😅😂

    This, of all the beautiful music that Ben Folds has made, makes me want to cry the most. You are coming to my work place and alma mater on the 11th. Please, play this. And fred jones part II. Actually, just play beautifully like you do. Sorry in advance for the high harmonies from the audience. I'm only giving myself three songs to sing with, but I'm sure I'll ruin them.

      This was the first song he played when he came. I'm not sure if that's a giant coincidence, but thanks, Ben.

    I don't know why but having the visuals of seeing people play add a lot of depth to the music because I can understand what's going on a bit better.
