@Batman13ify Actually, this song was a retalliation from the lead singer of Korn who said in (I believe) Rolling Stone that Ben Folds Five played noting more than the "F^*$ing Cheers theme song". If you can pause it quick enough, at 4:01, between the undewater singing and they make fun of Freak on a Leash, for about 1-3 frames, it flashes "Korn Sucks
ben remains to be one of the greatest song writers of all time. his hilarious yet genius lyrics mixed with the amazing piano and melody grabs my heart everytime. he is a huge inspiration to me and my brother who just dropped a new music video on our channel, if you gotta second check it out, you may like it, piano based rock, anyway, have a good evening. ben is the best.
Vevo...if you can't handle the word 'shitty' then maybe you aren't fit to present the videos. Fuck you you commercial, corporate, money obsessed wankers.
i remember seeing this video in 2001 on mtv and much music getting some airplay during the summer months before 9/11 then after 9/11 it seemed to disappear from video rotation ...
I've been going back through and watching all the Ben Fold's videos after listening to The Best Imitation of Myself album the past couple weeks. This stuff never gets old.
Did you guys know Ben Folds put out a new retrospective record called “Best Imitation of Myself”? It includes songs that best represent his career as well as a few new tracks with Ben Folds Five. Check it out!
This song and video is hilarious, but you know, when it first came out, there were probably tons of teenagers who didn't get the joke and thought it was "cool" because it was like all their other angry white-boy music. I remember seeing this on MTV, and I think it even made it onto TRL. I can't believe it's because the mindless drones who watch MTV actually got Ben's joke, but because they thought it was supposed to be serious.
@GryffinDarkBreed This is just the music video released in 2001 posted on the internet in 2009. The original music video was censored so that it could be aired on TV and the reposting of it on the internet contains the same censorship. Vevo didn't recensor it.
Listen to 'she likes me for me' - an almost rip off of Blessid union of souls song 6 years earlier. Especially the last bridge in the song. Surprised he didnt get sued.
People, seriously, understand this is not the over the hedge edit! It is his own work and not a twist to fit a movie. I like both version but this version...I mean he says fuck.
Goddmanit why is vevo censored? This is so fucking stupid. I'm always two clicks away from shemale scat porn and snuff films, I can handle hearing "fuck"
@The12cas Best .. Movie... Of my entire childhood.. .Loved it.. Still watch it at times to this day......... :) Yet .. Im 15... gotta get a life lmfao >.<
Im black and once hung around w/ black supremicist and w/ this song even they cant logically say the "it wasnt my idea" line was racist. This entire song is a parody. So is that line. Relax, Relate, Release ppl.
