  • this should have won over the leading tones. such a stronger background, and the soloist sings with a controlled vibrato that is not as abrasive as the other. you're not supposed to sing your heart out like the other soloist claims to do; it's a depressing song about one's realization that a relationship has trashed him. if anything, you should be crying the damn words

  • Chill out. And if you're gonna use words like 'identical,' you might as well back that up with a video of said identical original, right? That way we can see exactly what you're claiming. See that guy in the black shirt and white collar? He worked really hard to arrange this to respect Ben Folds' version while also emulating parts from his live version with the symphony, not to mention the dynamic changes & other stuff. It's really hard to make good arrangements, and I'm very proud of him.

  • Hey from Cologne/Germany - it's nearly 8 a.m. and I'm sitting with a cup of coffee and enjoying you very much. And by the way, Mr. Folds seems to do so too - came here from his very own Facebook-Entry posting this video ... Cheers ;)

  • Awesome.  Great job, guys :O)

  • Awesome work! Loving it! :) Makes me want to sing in a group again!

  • thumbs up to the guy on the right doing air drums.. :)

  • I love you.

  • amazin

  • wow...soloist is great and percussionist is amazing...love it!!

  • !astounding

  • ...Have you guys thought about The Sing Off? ;D

  • i think this great! :)

    i think the momentum is great--even if it is a slow song.

    it's a very peaceful and light arrangement for such heavy lyrics.

    probably the best one i've seen.

    powerful but not in your face.

    great lead vocals
