Ben Folds Five - Erase Me
Ben Folds Five has always captured me with their version of Piano Rock / Pop. Their previous albums always sounded a little noisy to me, but there were a few songs that caught me, like Brick, Army and the hilarious Song for the Dumped. Their last album, Whatever and Ever Amen was on repeat for a while when I was younger but soon I grew up, and the album was left behind.
After a 13 year hiatus since their last album release, I took a little refresher course of their past discography, and had a listen of their latest album, The Sound of the Life of the Mind.
Erase Me, the first song off the album is signature Ben Folds Five, with pianos as one of the main backing instruments. The album slowly died off as it reached the middle, as the music started to sound the same (unfortunate, though Blue Skies was a nice change of pace), but Erase Me remained one of the better songs I have heard in a while.
Erase Me gave me the same chills as Brick, but a rising climax and multiple vocals coming in together to form a gorgeous songs where everything falls in place. And it ends with an absolutely breath-taking clash of angry pianos and clashing cymbals and drums.
What a gem.
Unfortunately, that's the only one that I will listen to in the album. Perhaps the rest will grow on me as time progresses.

OFFICIAL VID: Ben Folds Five and Fraggle Rock - Do It Anyway
Fraggle Rock! Holy crap! I've forgotten all about them, but, like many of my friends, grew up with with them in the background of my childhood. Combine those endearing Muppets with Ben Folds Five as well as many other famous figures (Anna Kendrick, Chris Hardwick, etc) into a video for Do It Anyway, and we get quite the masterpiece. This is way too cool. An epic video can easily make a song even more lovable. The song is already a great one, now with this video, it's become something I'll never forget. Well played! The video is the first off Ben Fold Five's reunion album The Sound of the Life of the Mind, and this sure bodes well for the return. The album drops this very week. Keep watching the video till the end for a huge blast from the past as all the participants of the video do a nostalgia inducing rendition of the Fraggle Rock theme. Oh. Man.
