I voted this as my number 1 and was also shocked when it didn't even make the top 100. It's too old school I suppose...... oh well! Let the kids miss out 😂
I have been looking for this since I first watched the show in 2008. I wish you'd added the part leading up to it. how he gets the file box and puts a tea towel on it, puts aluminium foil on the piano strings then uses a cup with some water and taps with a pencil. I loved this so much. it's been 15 years and it's finally available for me to show people I know.
I used to be able to play this after watching him do this masterpiece years ago, sure he makes a mistake at the end but omg playing this for 3 minutes like this is actually extremely tiring. Its like playing ascent of stan but on speed.
This is so good Ben. This song is making a huge comeback and is being used in films again this year. Best version I’ve heard in the 20 years of this song existing.
My parents always put on triple j and listened to them especially in the late 2000s, and I've just started discovering the songs i grew up on by finding them on RUclips. A lot of nostalgia with them 💜
i remember listening to this when i was like.. 4 or 5 lol, on a dvd i found in my parents bookshelf, on my shitty little dvd player tv, and i was entranced by it, i watched it over and over, and now, looking back... i had some damn good music taste as a little kid
I first heard this song about a leather or 12 years ago… It made me absolutely ridiculously happy then and it still makes me absolutely ridiculously happy now… All the way into 2024… I like the original of this song I like the iron and wine Version of this song and this version is gotta be probably like the best one of all…
My sister visited nyc with her college friends when I was 11. I had a huge crush on her friend and she put me on to a bunch of 2000s artists from Maroon 5 to Postal Service. Now, I live in the LES just blocks away from the very spots they’d go and watch all their friends and SO bands play.
Just when I thought Ben Folds had one of the best covers with ‘Bitches Ain’t S***, I dig this up. Thanks for always keeping listeners on their toes like in ‘Macarena’ Ben!

How have I only just discovered this despite being a fan of the original. Incredible
same!
I've been lucky enough to see him do this live. He's been doing it for a long time.

Look up the MySpace (yep lmao) concert he played it at
I love that you are adding a bunch of older ones!

For years I thought this was a Ben original,, so when I heard the original at a bowling alley,, I was like is this a cover of that Ben Folds song??
Yeah, brilliant.
This is a real Like a Version highlight, plus the original Postal Service version is already awesome :)
When I was on deployment around 2007, we listened to Ben Folds while we bombed Iraq and Afghanistan. Brings back memories
