Things You Think
Music by Ben Folds
Lyrics by Nick Hornby

Things You Think is a VideoSong, a new medium with 2 rules:
1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).

Did we mention it's available on iTunes?

Ben's new record comes out Sept. 28th! You should get it, trust us! We've heard a handful of the songs (yeah, we're bragging. so what?), and it's freaking sweet. Nick Hornby (author of Fever Pitch, High Fidelity, About a Boy, and a bunch more) wrote all of the lyrics on the album, and Ben took care of the music. Super rad combination, totally big time. You can order the album here:

Special thanks to Ben for working with us! It was way too much fun to have you recording in our studio. Man, what a treat!

I'm convinced if one built a web radiating from ben folds with the artists he's collaborated with, you'd stumble upon everything that is awesome.

1:20 - Nick is a writer. The message isn't exactly that you should read a book instead of watching T.V. (though as a writer he probably wouldn't mind). It's that you should write one. Don't mindlessly consume. Produce. Be creative. Do something with your life. That's what I got anyway. ...Or live your life however you like. Fair enough, I s'pose.

@lilyenc I was going to respectfully disagree because he's never collaborated with any of my favorite artists but then I realized that I discovered my favorite artists via a person I met through a band that toured with, you guessed it, ben folds. so they'd be on the outside of your proposed web.

Happy 200th Birthday Charles Dickens! :-)

@Bubbles7066 You need to get your ears checked out, friend! RJ Mamula is a sight for my sore eyes after witnessing this hornswoggled mess.

Nataly would make a good Tinkerbell. I'm just saying

[JDvorak2009]

She shoots guns like she's playing with a squirt gun LOL

FUNNY

[Bubbles7066]

@mamulafan4life You are kidding right? I looked up his music and it was just a selection of out of time, out of key drivel

[CornDogSeven]

@DavidAccola Well written. Your thoughts on what this video is about is spot on. ((((Applause ensues))))

[TPRJones]

Perspective! We has it!

I wish I could be creative, but I just don't have it. Don't have the talent for it, don't have the energy for it, and don't have the spirit for it. But that's okay. Someone has to take the time to bask in all the brilliance around here.

[sporaticdamage]

@DavidAccola fair enough I s'pose. It is all good. We all try to make sense of everything. As long as we still attempt to try to make sense of what we think, there may be hope....
