Smoke- Ben Folds Five

[coconutfever123]

this is my favorite ben folds five song

[leeroytheguitarist]

I think many can agree with this thought. There are very few albums in which i deeply feel ever song. Whatever and ever amen is in that other category. Simply put this album is a beautiful piece of music

[fletchman5435]

@leeroytheguitarist that's very true. Another great album Matchbox 20's Yourself or Someone Like You,

[napalm5]

@fletchman5435 Do not even mention that travesty of hipster-pop band in the presence of Ben Folds 5!

[TheDouGhBoYsTyLe]

the song that started the nick hornby relationship <3 lonely avenue

[mikehennyt]

@TheDouGhBoYsTyLe i take it you read nick hornby;s book, "31 songs"? haha

[Domydoor]

this album was released on the day i was!

[ja0401]

Simple message. Burn the memories. Forget the future. Live in the now.

[potterpeach]

i could listen to this all day. actually i'm pretty sure i have...

[jhillst]

What's that sound you hear before the song starts?

[hpsnorlaxdirector]

@jhillst He rubs something across the strings of the piano, but I'm not sure what.

[BilisNegra]

@hpsnorlaxdirector As a matter of fact, that sound is heard again starting at 3:24

[drumforlife720]

@hpsnorlaxdirector probably a drumstick

[pennybeggar]

@hpsnorlaxdirector Sounds like a guitar pick.

[trasuranic]

@hpsnorlaxdirector It sounds like he uses a guitar pick or something, or maybe his finger nails?

[ja0401]

@jhillst It's a mixture of tuning the piano and rubbing the string.

[xCommonGoodx]

@jhillst I'm pretty sure that's the sound of someone tuning a piano. That's the sounds of the strings stretching.

[ja0401]

@xCommonGoodx You're right.

[HEROINBONER1]

This song almost always brings a tear to my eyes :')

[makemefearless]

that's fantastic thanks :)

[DannyK2055]

[screamingformiracles]

[Simon0]

[colourr19]

bennn foldsss is the bombbbbb:D

for some reason most of the songs i like, i can't find anywhere but iTunes :p

[JustinMH28]

I just want to say thanks for posting this song. I heard this album when I was 16. It was the first time I can ever remember popping in a cd and being so mesmerized by it that I couldn't move from the bedside where I was sitting until it was completely finished. I miss Ben Folds Five.

[hpsnorlaxdirector]

@lilsweeti13 Actually, you're hearing the sweet sound of the melodica.

[VirtualInsanity91]

@hpsnorlaxdirector

Lol its like a harmonica and a keyboard had a baby and that baby took awesomness steroids.

[GregThePanda]

@hpsnorlaxdirector ahh, the nerdiest of all the winds hahahaha

[sheetz9821]

@hpsnorlaxdirector I'm glad SOMEBODY else actually knew hahah :)

[deshray]

I Sang This Song For A Talent Show While Playing The piano Part And Won 2nd Place :3, And WASO Did Amazing On This Song, The Performance Was stunning

[Hankamer126]

rockin' the melodica.

[2010profile]

The Piano Man by Billy Joel is another song that is in 3/4 and has an accordion and piano; it seems like an unlikely match.

[imanemilyrawr]

This is a spledid song :) my highschool choir sang this freshman year

[JoeChrisMorris]

sublime

[finallyanunusedname2]

I like the live version with WASO better; this version is good also.

[iamsouthpark]

this is the only song that truly moves me

[nikiru]

ben folds five is the best.

[RabidHowler91]

No matter what the song may mean to Ben, it means something to eeryone who hears it. All of their songs make a difference to SOMEONE, and this one means alot to me... ^^

[troye2407]

this song is about one of bens best friends who died, the best songwriter of all time, the last great, Elliott Smith

[xXElitePaladinXx]

No that is actually not this song. You're thinking of Late on Songs for Silverman.

[guitarplayingcat]

Im pretty sure this song is not about Elliot smith... Although yes, he was great. One of the best.

[iamsouthpark]

jojbsad;

[aschellz]

love it

[rdanneskjold11]

I love how just about every sad song has something funny, and vice versa.

[mtb416]

BFF, great as usual. One of his deeper songs. I think Ben wrote this song to try and allow himself to let go from something in the past.

[xxstraight0edgexx]

Ben didn't write the lyrics, his wife at the time (now ex) Anna wrote the lyrics

[2Gutter3Flower2]

ben folds five ROCK!

[BlueRuby32]

at last!

Thanks!

[medea347]

Wow... I needed to hear this song all day.

You posted it right on time <: )

Thanks.
