Ben Folds did a normal solo piano version and it was the most beautiful thing I’ve heard in a long time. Nothing like it exists on youtube sadly… You had to be there…
Ben wrote this song …
Ben wrote this song for my hometown of Rochester New York! It was a bit different, it started talking about going to a coffee shop by our music conservatory. The chorus was the same, but ended with “but i appreciate it cos they make very good coffee, and i think it is the coolest cofee shop cos everyones not so f$%!&g sour like they are in other coffee shops”

haha yea i was at the 4/27 pullman concert this weekend and the show was awesome!! except he didnt play a oncore. well he was sick so i understand. i dont recall him needing to restart at the show i went to
I was at a concert …
I was at a concert of his last night and he used an empty altoids container, some other aluminum box, put a small cookie plate on top of it, then put a maraca on that. Then, with his right hand he played the distorted part, and the other hand player the keys that the items were covering and made symbal-like sounds and shook the maraca. He was basically a one man band.
And when he reaches in im pretty sure hes touching the strings hes playing to give them a muted effect.
He definitely looks …
He definitely looks pissed… haha. That was great.
Oh I know, I was @ …
Oh I know, I was @ the Hill too and it sounded so freakin sweet with the distortion…I can’t wait to hear it on the new album. Ya know, he looks kinda in this video lol.

I was at one of his concerts last night, and when he tried to play this song, the pan wouldn’t cooperate. It was so disappointing because it’s sounds so cool!
I think it is the …
I think it is the pan thing here, my 1st time hearing this so I don’t know for sure but I have seen video of him plucking the strings w/1 hand and playing with the other and also playing the strings like a guitar with an extra mic as the pic on other songs.
oh! A cookie tin ( …
oh! A cookie tin (pan). Thanks for clarifying that! I get my turn to see him on tour this April! I hope he remembers to bring the pan with him so he does the tune! Perhaps I should bring one to the show just in case! Ha!
actually, i was …
actually, i was there. it wasn’t so much a pan as the top to an aluminum cookie tin.
I was mistaken. I …
I was mistaken. I heard a tape of the show and Ben explains that he places a pan (a kitchen frying pan perhaps?) into the piano and adds a distortion box to the mike to get the unique piano sound for this tune. I then assume toward the end he is reaching into the piano to make adjustments to the pan that is inside it. Interesting and unique style there.

I was mistaken in my earlier post. I heard a tape of the show and it seems Ben places a pan (a kitchen pan?) inside the piano and adds a distortion box to the mike to get that unique sound for this tune. I assume then he is reaching into the piano to adjust the pan in this video towards the end. Neat Stuff!
Thank you for …
Thank you for posting this. Interesting where it appears he is plucking the strings in the piano with his left hand at the the same time he is playing the keys with his right…or was there another keyboard behind the baby grand. Looking forward to the release of his new CD.
