someone who usually has decent taste recommended bff, and i havent really INVESTIGATED their stuff before. Narcolepsy is good, any other tracks you lot would recommend in my quest for enlightenment?

 

[legendario]

I only know "underground"

 

[Scooba Da Bass]

The recent live album is top notch stuff.

 

[.cage]

recommend me some non-live albums first please scooba, to initiate me!

 

[caLLous]

Whatever and Ever Amen is classy stuff, cage.

I should like BFF...but I don't.....apart from Brick and Air.

 

[Will]

Don't forget "Song for the Dumped". An essential listen. When I first heard it, it was very appropriate.

 

[Racoon of Doom]

Do not listen to Ben Folds Five else you will end up looking like this.

CLick the link, win the game.

Saw him live when he toured with the dvine comedy. He was great, first he added a 'missing last verse' to song for the dumped he also danced on the top of his piano and broke a string mid-song. (lalalala FUCK lalalala)

Ignore racoon - he's a twat (it's spelt 'raccoon' btw). BFF are (were) fooking fantastic. Superb songwriting. Recommend these tracks:

Off the first album (Ben Folds Five):

Jackson Cannery
Where's Summer B
Underground

Off the second album (Whatever and ever..)

Brick (quality writing)
Song For The Dumped
Selfless, Cold & Composed
Kate
Battle of who could care less

Didn't like their third and last album (Reinhold Messner) as much.. but worth listening to if you can find it for download.

When i first created this nickname (in my MSN Zone days) i tried out spelling it Raccoon.....but it just looks crap. And spelling it with one c is an american variation on the normal spelling.

there is good music for you.

 

[legendario]

I heard them on Radio1 a while back...too heavy for me.

 

[Will]

Ben Folds Five heavy?

Are you sure you have the right band?

 

[legendario]

I was referring to funeral for a friend.

 

[Will]

I'll let you off then. I don't click any links at work, so I never twigged that was what you were talking about.

 

[legendario]

I know I should have quoted but i'm tired and bored

 

[.cage]

cheers all!

"For all of ya all that were fanny packs" is a great improv tune that is on their mix and match type album, "Naked Baby Photos" I think.

Funny as fuck.
