I like alternate versions, so slow is interesting. Probably not as good as the regular, piano punk version, though. As far as mistakes, I'm no stickler for perfection. This is an oddity, so it's fun to watch.
stuffed up 4 times, forgot lyrics, voice cracked and wasn't as fast as the normal song and during the piano solo it sounded horrible, i feel sorry for the guy
He forgot the lyrics at 1:04 and had a voice crack at 1:51 , and he looked sweatingly nervous throughout the entire song. Not a good performance, but still a great song nonetheless.
lol. what a mess. i'm a huuuuge fan of ben folds, but this just sounds horrible. i bet when ben was playing, he was thinking, "aww. i give up. screw this"
Hmmm....well....

Plus the great audio/video redeems it.

What a waste. The sound and video are so good quality. It could've been so awesome. I still love ben.

just a bad day/sound/gig....his voice was off. He clearly didn't like the piano and was really frustrated.
Some funny bits though.
He was wishing it was over from the beginning.
