But if there were black people there, I'm sure they would be laughing their asses off with the rest of us during Bitches ain't Shit

Just listen to the "1997 TFI Friday Ben Folds Five Kate" video with Sledge and Jessee. I think they had more chemistry than the ones here. Just the way they sing and play together (or possibly the young age of them) makes it sound more together. Man, they could sing. Although, the ones here aren't bad.

Rockin' The Suburbs had more of an upbeat/modern (at the time) feel to it, Songs for Silverman had more of a reflecting feel, and Way to Normal had a... well... less original fell in my opinion. But Ben Folds never fails to impress me.
~~Whatever and Ever Amen~~

At the time Ben Folds Five was around, I didn't respect Darren and Robert's talent as much as I now do. They were amazing singers along with musicians. The song most people know, but don't know it's by them is probably "Theme from Dr Pyser." It's common, but people don't know the origins. Also, each Ben Folds/ Five album has a different style/theme than the other. BFF (album) had a REALLY 90's feel, W&E Amen was filled with all different ones, Unauthorized Biography had more of a smooth feel,

@abonei It's probably because the song messes with your perception of the beat. The bass comes in exactly half a beat before beat one of the next measure. However, listening from the beginning of the song can lead you to believe that the bass comes in ON beat one. The unsettling feeling is probably the beat following along in your head being reset when the drums come in.



As a long time BFF fan I have to agree with the others saying they miss Darren and Robert. I saw them at Mandalay Bay in Vegas years ago, and they blew the place away. Darren's drumming had a much more jazz influenced style that was incredible to watch and hear, and everyone knows the weird things Robert can do with a bass guitar. It was a great night. That being said, I loved "Songs for Silverman". Ben has never made a bad album, ever.
