I love Ben Kweller. First song I remember hearing was "Wasted and Ready." He always makes me want to watch Freaks and Geeks. Sheer genius. Sincerely amazing.
Also, I love Asher's sample. It was tastefully done, and this was the perfect song for him to use for his work.
alright for all the people who say asher roth stole this from this ben guy.. Your ALL idiots. what asher roth did is not a "sample" nor did he "steal" this. What he did is called a cover you should probably look into that. As well as the fact that the lyrics are COMPLETELY different the only thing he used was the guys chorus. and infact a lot of artists do that as a kind of tribute to people who inspired them
who the hell is that Asher ? piss on ppl who steal from talented musicians like this wonderful young man. it shows that they have zero talent. i call them thieves. i first saw BK on a late night austin city limits show. i was hooked from the very first time i saw him. the picture was all snowy and crackly because i had rabbit ears. lol. but i knew instantly that BK is THE MAN !!
@letsgo395 no it's sampling you fucking idiot. people like myself and other hip-hop fans wouldn't of heard of this song if it wasn't for Asher Roth so shut your fucking mouth. Ben gave him permission to sample to the song.
never heard of ben til the other day...saw him with julia nunes 2 nights ago in charlotte...i like his stuff and he's a great live performer, if you get the chance...seems like a cool guy, invited everybody up on the stage and participate in all the songs...one of my better concert experiences...and i've been to quite a few.... :)
wait... what did Asher Roth do? I know he did I Love College, but did he tour with him or something? Kweller's been one of my favorite artists for years.
@jrose987 duhhh thats cuz whoever the hell asher is he/she stole they're material from ben kweller. thats what all "urban musicians" do. it's in their genes to steal. ;)
@ryanmc27 no freaking fair!!! i would probly pass out if i saw him.. lol plus my friends make fun of me for listening to him cause it goes to death metal to him lol ... haha gotta love that ben kweller:)))
Its the 'bah bah bah bah bah BAHS' that do it for me. Amazing endnote to a back-to-back classic album. I often enjoy listening to it while eating spaghetti.
Reminds me of a university relationship of mine that never quite had a chance. Though this was a song she sent me, and I always remembered it. Great song.
God this song brings back so memories, hahaha. Sha Sha was basically the soundtrack to my life years and years back. I played that CD til it wouldn't play no more.
I don't know. Although the asher roth's sample sounds good, I feel this song should be known by it's original version, not a sample. Ben Kweller is the man!
I heard this at Sushi Station and I WAS SO EXCITED! I love this album *so* much.
