Ben Folds - Adelaide

[InsertYourBeliefHere]

I moved to Adelaide from New Zealand when I was 14 (I'm 21) now, and I moved back to New Zealand earlier this year, but Adelaide is my hometown. Amazing city.

[TheGeorge130]

meh all these haters are just jealous of adelaide. go search in google most liveable city in Australia and guess what it is? Adelaide! your all just jealous, especially Melbournians, the show offs living in the wannabe sydney.. Melbournians get a life you will never be as good as sydney!

[tstitt1111]

this song is my fucking jam,... thats all ill say

[MelEnvision]

I love how he couldn't think of a proper answer for "why adelaide, you could live anywhere?".

[bamajayee]

@MelEnvision

because he wants to!

lol

[Marrkyy9]

whats album is this?

[Marrkyy9]

The views are way too low for how good this song is!!!

[andykins118118]

adelaide makes me think of david thorne...

[YukiraSnivyLawliet]

He's just amazing. :D

[InsertYourBeliefHere]

I moved away from Adelaide a few months ago, and this song makes me feel homesick :/ I love it, haha.

[CustardAngel]

@xXWinterNightsXx not adelaide :P thats for sure hahahahahahaha. light googling will tell you your answer (also north carolina)

[CustardAngel]

@xXWinterNightsXx not adelaide :P thats for sure hahahahahahaha

[NoTrainOnSundays]

My dream (only cause they're my favourite band) is that Rise Against do a cover of this song and play it when they come to Adelaide ... i think i would literally jizz in my pants >.<

[adelaide94able]

:)

[xxSteviexxx]

I found this video easy to masturbate to.

[xXWinterNightsXx]

where is ben from?

[fordrule888]

This song makes me proud to be South Aussie!!!

[mysmilie]

He makes Adelaide seem amazing... and I live here

[meesa1212]

Love Ben folds. Saw him at lolapalooza. Simply amazing.

[sabres10910]

realy I farted a version of this song!

[TheAlexShows]

I made a Tuba version of this song!

[brenttopia]

definitely one of my favorite songs by Ben Folds. The opening theme just sets the song so well and is so entrancing

[blackbirdarising]

@brenttopia I want to learn to play this song on the piano just for the opening!

[tarvisurlich]

hehe i had to listen to this song i was just in Guys and Dolls... and the love interest's name is adelaide...

[schizophrenicPrime]

Whats Adelaide?

[reggin18]

@schizophrenicPrime the greatest city in australia

[duke149]

Funny, he no longer lives in Adelaide. It can't be that good.. what do you know, its not!

[fordboy4l]

sorry.... i know adelaides wierd, but the best thing about adelaide is no one else likes it, which means less people and we get to have it to ourselves.... and, well, sorry but i can't think of a song written about melbourne!

[wobblyboost]

@fordboy4l Good point m8 for all adelaides faults and quirks, melbourne sux a thousand million times more and the only songs about melb are paul kelly- only because he was paid by vic arts to write them (he's from adelaide!) and the whitlams, who write all thier boring songs with a melbourne street directory.

[tylerjj98]

@fordboy4l I'm from Adelaide, and I hate to burst your bubble, but check out 'Melbourne' by The Whitlams.

[cainemac]

@tylerjj98 Tiome Freedman sings about LEAVING Melbourne to return to the social capital of Australia, Sydney :P

[PaddlePopQueen]

@fordboy4l Adelaide isn't weird, I've lived in weird places - trust me.

I agree with you though on the part of having stuff to ourselves! :D

Melbourne is an all right song written by The Whitlams

[troig43]

So glad I left...

[TheOnlyDummkopf]

HAHAHA, it takes him 35 seconds to call Adelaide bogans... hes on the money!

[daveswar21]

@TheOnlyDummkopf

That would be a reference to the eastern state bogans arriving for the Clipsal...Dummkopf is correct!!

[wobblyboost]

Adelaide adelaide adelaide, you always have to say it 3 times while people try remember where it is.

There are worse cities in australia but i'm sorry adelaide - adelaide adelaide, your wierd! :)

[mgracer]

Where the heck is Adelaide?

[leratao]

@mgracer Australia.

[KTMykel]

@mgracer Australia you minger.

[rainbowfuzzy123]

when my older sister started to make bad decisions with her life, i was never happy because my parents would yell at her. when i wanted to get away i would listen to this song :). thank you ben folds.

love and rockets,

grace :)

[cjhoops96]

what about dubbo........

[Chloeb2205]

Adelaide could have been given more justice than this. ;)

[glamourfields]

Ben Folds you legend! I love living here :)

[jesperepourlamour]

[ViciousGuitarist]

YEAH!!! ADELAIDE ROCKS... except for the clipsal lol

[1CaptainAustralia1]

[Untershmur]

Now to decide, should I live in Adelaide or Effington ^^

[JuliaMariiie22]

[q0zi]

This is different from most of what he does.

[jwilby82]

[shredBucketheadshred]

@jwilby82 this place sux

[KingStripes]

[Jay4P]

Adelaide is the most boring place on Earth...

Melbourne FTW

[jako34]

@Jay4P fuck ya mum i was just in melbourne for the adelaide high melbourne high exchange so boring haha

[Jay4P]

@jako34 lol i have friends that go to melbourne high

[88honey88]

lol as if someone sung a song about adelaide...i guess it's the awesome people that live here that make it worthwhile to sing about :D

[bizallin]

I believe thats one of Bens x-wifes (Fralley ) saying "hello" in the opening.

[MrTulips91]

I dont know anything about Adelaide the city, but this song fucking rocks!

[Theperiperi132]

i live in adelaide IT SUCKS but good music, wine, festivals and cycling

[UnchainedMellers]

I dunno, it's a nice song, but Adelaide isn't the place to grow up in. Very Australian though :P

[shredBucketheadshred]

@UnchainedMellers growing up is about the ONLY thing decent about adelaide dopey! then you leave!

[raebow90]

adelaide = best city ever

[strangelyoD]

i dont even live in adelaide, though i love this song

[clubpenguin777]

LOL bogans!

[jackabubba]

Hmmm, lived in old Adelaide town for 18 months..... The big balls wernt enough to keep me... lol. but my boy was born there a few years ago so i guess its ok... just :p just kidding

[finallyanunusedname2]

This is one of Ben Folds' lesser quality songs, but still worth listening to.

[IncessantLuminescent]

This song makes me feel proud to be an Adelaide girl. XD

[lobohummingbird]

Me too :D

[PaddlePopQueen]

@IncessantLuminescent Likewise!

[chortles48]
