I voted this as my number 1 and was also shocked when it didn't even make the top 100. It's too old school I suppose...... oh well! Let the kids miss out 😂
I first heard this song about a leather or 12 years ago… It made me absolutely ridiculously happy then and it still makes me absolutely ridiculously happy now… All the way into 2024… I like the original of this song I like the iron and wine Version of this song and this version is gotta be probably like the best one of all…
I have been looking for this since I first watched the show in 2008. I wish you'd added the part leading up to it. how he gets the file box and puts a tea towel on it, puts aluminium foil on the piano strings then uses a cup with some water and taps with a pencil. I loved this so much. it's been 15 years and it's finally available for me to show people I know.
I love that you are adding a bunch of older ones!
This is so good Ben. This song is making a huge comeback and is being used in films again this year. Best version I’ve heard in the 20 years of this song existing.
My parents always put on triple j and listened to them especially in the late 2000s, and I've just started discovering the songs i grew up on by finding them on KZread. A lot of nostalgia with them 💜
How have I only just discovered this despite being a fan of the original. Incredible

I've been lucky enough to see him do this live. He's been doing it for a long time.

I used to be able to play this after watching him do this masterpiece years ago, sure he makes a mistake at the end but omg playing this for 3 minutes like this is actually extremely tiring. Its like playing ascent of stan but on speed.

CORE MEMORY

That put a smile on my face 😊
Best outro to a song I’ve ever heard 😂
this is fucking incredible
Wow
The reason i listen to Like A Version, and i had that phone😁
This was made for me
Natural fit
Just when I thought Ben Folds had one of the best covers with ‘Bitches Ain’t S***, I dig this up. Thanks for always keeping listeners on their toes like in ‘Macarena’ Ben!
Took it off spotify, glad they at least added it here
I really hope this returns to Apple Music some day!
❤❤❤
fuckin amazing
It’s just very Chef’s Kiss perfect!
Yeah, brilliant. This is a real Like a Version highlight, plus the original Postal Service version is already awesome :)
Lets fucking goooo!!!!

When I was on deployment around 2007, we listened to Ben Folds while we bombed Iraq and Afghanistan. Brings back memories
Tell Ben Folds I'm down with his Late Nina Simone phase, give me more
Why?
Inhumanly human
