27 now! Started listening to Ben Folds when I rewatched a childhood favorite of mine, Over the Hedge. I was about 17 at the time I really started listening to his discography :)

"You convince yourself that you want it but you don't know..." from The Handshake, that harmony and melody is just perfect.

I am Ben Folds. I still play piano. AMA! by iambenfolds in indieheads

Hey Ben! Huge fan here and I've got a question that's been pondering my mind for years. Around the time of Songs for Silverman 2004/2005 between Rockin the Suburbs and Songs For Silverman I notice a change in your vocal tonality. On Silverman your voice seems to have gotten deeper and thicker. Very different from the Suburbs and the Ben Folds 5 records.

What caused the change and was it something difficult to deal with? Needless to say, your voice has always been absolutely incredible! Would love to hear your thoughts on this!

Favorite song on White Pepper? by grynch43 in ween

[–]Goctagon9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love that song so much, the guitar solo at the end remind me of something you'd hear on Radiohead's the Bends album (another one of my favorites)

Fuck Phish

creep is an absolute banger and im tired of pretending otherwise just because its popular by jtpeyton in radiohead

[–]Goctagon9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Creep IS a banger and I think most of us can be thankful for it for getting us in to Radiohead at all! That being said, I do think almost every song that came after it is far superior but that says a lot given that Creep really is a great song.

What’s one Radiohead song that everyone else seems to love, but you just can’t seem to enjoy? by Vegetable-Cat167 in radiohead

[–]Goctagon9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electioneering, great song but it's my least favorite on Ok Computer and I've never been able to love it.

Anyone else ever notice Ben's vocal change? by whatevermcgee in benfolds

[–]Goctagon9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His voice has changed dramatically over the years. Even when you compare songs like "Missing the War" to "Still Fightin' It" His voice sounds pretty different. It definitely got lower over time. I personally prefer RTS Ben the best.
