Cause Ben Folds IS That Great

I'm sure you've all seen this by now, with its 4 million views -

If you're like me, you probably had the thought "Ben Folds?" at one point or another. And someone who shared this thought clearly told Ben Folds. The result?

So happy right now

Ben Folds is doing WHAT NOW?! [Want]

Remember that time when I wrote a post yesterday (see below) wherein I said I was a geek in many different ways? Here is yet another way! Woah! I am a huge Ben Folds nerd. I said it. david would have my head for publically admitting something he finds to be so shameful, but damnit! Folds is just a crazy talented dude and you can't deny that fact.

Anyway, I am somehow only JUST hearing about a new wacky cd of his that came out today...well not so much HIS as it is his MUSIC. See, it's a compilation of various a capella groups covering Ben Folds songs. Oh. Also. I love a capella groups. A couple good friends of mine in college belonged to some and they were always amazing. Though my guess is the a capella groups at my college, which would be NYU, may be slightly superior to the ones at colleges that don't have nine hundred billion wanna be musical theater stars making up the student body. I'm saying this only so you understand that being a fan of my alma mater's a capella groups does not make me a loser. Plenty of other things DO make me a loser (like loving Ben Folds, according to david) but not that one.

While the AV Club gave this cd a B-, this is one case where so-so review or no, I am paying money for this shit immediately. Oh yeah, and if you want to buy it yourself, it's called University A Cappella! Woot! See full post
