    Chorus:
    And we drive
    Now that I have found someone
    I'm feeling more alone
    Than I ever have before
    She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
    Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere
    She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
    They call her name at seven thirty
    I pace around the parking lot
    Then I walk down to buy her flowers
    And sell some gifts that I got

    This truly is a masterpiece. Aged like a fine wine.

    I shared this song with my sisters & parents, and they didn't understand it.
    I shared this song with my children and wife, and they didn't understand it.
    It it very lonely to have no one your your life who can appreciate a song like this.

      But someone shared it with you. And you understood it. That may have to be enough for now.
      I hear ya tho.

      Very painful to go through the shit he did. They couldn't understand and I don't blame them.

      Heard brick on the ol' FM radio in Jr high...clueless to context, I Loved it, as a child: ignorant to the seriousness of the topic.
      I could never have assumed that someday I'd know how they must have felt, mental & or emotional heartache isn't an amusement park ride...but it's definitely strength training for the mind/spirit
      Most of us understand these hard things:even if we can't articulate it at times.
      Not the same: another beautifully personal piece for a pivotal time in my young adulthood....
      I know this was months ago, but hope it reaches yah 🙏✌️👍

    I’m really feeling The Clash. It’s like they really string with the songs.

    Who's listening to this song at 6 AM, day after Christmas?

    I first heard it when im in elementary 1999 in a cassette tape and just love it even if i dont know what’s the song is all about, forgot about it through the years and when i heard it again, i just love it. Gives me chills over and over again. Thank you! 🙌🏽🙏🏽

    Fuck the haters. The strings have discordant beauty; you just have to listen carefully.

    • @manningbartlett522
      @manningbartlett522 3 года назад +2

      I don't get it either, although I do kind of agree. This song seems more austere and painful with just the piano. The strings kind of make it more pleasant and lush.

    better than the studio version by far

    Why does everyone keep posting the same strings comment ? I looked it up and found no reference, will someone out there please explain without getting weird ? Thank you and hi.

    I am not feeling the strings. It's like they clash with the songs.

    has Ben Folds ever altered his lyrics to Brick to tell his girlfriends perspective? #shesabrick #brick #benfolds5 #benfolds

    • @johnnyklahn
      @johnnyklahn Год назад

      this came to me recently. it’s just the first few chunks (not a musician) heavily blended with Mr. Folds original lyrics and tone. would Mr. Folds be: #1 pissed that i slaughtered his original work? #2 ambivalent? #3 intrigued?

      Brick 2/Lyrics
      wake up numb, day after Christmas
      i’m feeling cold all in a knot
      Nerves are cold, tears are freezing
      I know he’s coming, i won’t… go
      Knocking door, he grabs my jacket
      head is spinning, not what i want
      This car can’t hold me tightly
      Can’t shake this knot..
      And we drive
      Now that I have found someone
      I'm feeling more alone
      Than I ever have before
      He’s a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
      Get my coat and no more flowers
      more afraid than i’ve ever felt now
      He’s a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
      They call my name, at 7:30
      i need you now, but your not.. there
      alone in white, sheets are sterile
      i can’t do this, on my own

    By far best of his performances of the song. just not feeling the strings at all unfortunately. Sounds awful. Ruined it for me. Maybe top 7.
