Related Artist: Ben Folds Formed in 1994 in the keyboard-unfriendly environs of Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Ben Folds Five started out with one big advantage over rival piano-led rock quintets; there were only three of them. Inspired by Nirvana's sinewy example ("They were great! It was like having The Who or someone around again"), this was a power trio with not an ounce of spare fat. Already lean and hungry from making repayments on Ben Fold's baby grand piano: Folds, bass-player Robert Sledge and drummer Darren Jessee grew ever leaner and hungrier from carrying it up and down the stairs into smokey after-hours juke-joints. Not since Jimi Hendrix' More...

Correction on Listen to this one closely | Reviewer: djyueng ------ About the song Leather Jacket performed by Ben Folds Five Just to follow-up on Jeanette's review, this song was actually written by Darren Jessee, the drummer for Ben Folds Five and now front-man for Hotel Lights. He also is an excellent lyricist, though, in his own right. Aftermath | Reviewer: daddy t ------ About the song Brick performed by Ben Folds Five I haven’t heard the song “BRICK” yet but I read the lyrics. At first I didn’t understand completely what it was about, until I read some comments of Ben Folds’ Fans. There is no antidote or anecdote that I know of to eradicate the unfathomable sadness of the situation depicted in “BRICK”. The pain never goes away. The survivors must just live on - as “the living dead” because of their loss - and stay together (which is best I think) or go their separate ways - which lessens the pain not at all. Suicide probably doesn’t help either, although I haven’t the nerve to try THAT yet. Reading the book TILLY by Frank E. Peretti helps a little if you can make it through the pages and see the words through your tear-flooded eyes. about xmas | Reviewer: blake ------ About the song Brick performed by Ben Folds Five alex, to answer your question about the signifigance it was the day after x-mas in the song, it's relavant to the line in the second verse where he is selling some gifts that he got. Those gifts were xmas presents and he is selling them to help pay for the abortion since he cannot ask his (or her) parents for help. Decision | Reviewer: Nicholas Benbenji ------ About the song Brick performed by Ben Folds Five The hardest decision to kill the result of love between 2 person... what ever the outcome is... there will always be regret and what-if... hope that all ppl who have been through it can let go and be healthy again... the reason | Reviewer: eric ------ About the song Brick performed by Ben Folds Five Hey the reason he wrote the song is because it happened to him and his girfrield when he was in hight school. They had a abortion. he tells the story in a interview. Tack Piano | Reviewer: Reed ------ About the song Leather Jacket performed by Ben Folds Five This is a beautiful example of the sound of the famous Tack Piano that Ben Folds made by putting brass thumb-tacks on each of the hammers in the piano. It's like a cross between a harpsichord and a child's piano toy. Quite an interesting sound... if only piano companies would take a hint... The song itself is gorgeous, the tune and the lyrics are both irregular in a way that's both catching an haunting. That this is one of Ben's lesser-known songs is nothing short of criminal. This song is so meaningful to me..... | Reviewer: Hope ------ About the song Brick performed by Ben Folds Five I lost my first precious baby on 2/15/98 when I was 16 because I allowed my asshole of a boyfriend and his scumbag of a mother to force me into having an abortion...I was 9 weeks and 3 days pregnant...I know she was a girl...I wanted to name her Esperanza (hope)....I have heard this song only one or two times and have never seen the words in print...I don't ever plan to again...it hurts.... still.... Brick review | Reviewer: Alex Nichols ------ About the song Brick performed by Ben Folds Five I think this song is about two young people, possibly teenagers, who got pregnant and how they deal with it. The refraining lines "She's alone/and i'm alone" suggest that after the abortion they realize how empty it makes them, and now they don't have as strong a connection any more. I am still trying to figure out why the time frame is the day after x-mas, but i'm sure there is something to it. hope it helped AMAZIN | Reviewer: rob ------ About the song Rockin the suburbs performed by Ben Folds Five this song is one of my favorites good job folds Merry Christmas to all! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Lonely Christmas Eve performed by Ben Folds Five Christmas is not complete without this song.
