Ben Folds is the love of my life. He is one of the greatest musicians who ever lived, and his talent on the piano is unmatched by any of today's crappy pop music. Seeing him live in concert makes me want to drop out of school and follow him around the country because he is a god and I love him.
this is a real conversation I once had
Guy: Yo, I was listening to the second track on one of the Ben Folds albums, and it made me cry.
Me: Which one? "Still Fighting It?" Cause that one made me cry.
Guy: No, it was "Fair."
Me: Yeah, Ben Folds is a genius.

A very VERY fabulous alternative piano rocker whose new album, Songs For Silverman, is completely and TOTALLY amazing. He has been called our generation's Elton John - but I think he's better, personally.

a singer that makes you want to look out a rainy window and cry. his songs, mainly "brick", are very depressing.
"man, this song is so depressing. i'm looking out a rainy window and crying right now" - emo kid

Quite possibly the foremost rock pianist of the last ten years.
He may be good, but he's no Ben Folds.
