I've Landed

I'm not a huge Ben Folds fan.

By that I mean I don't know much about the guy*, so I can't say I'm a huge fan- I'm sure his music is grand, just grand. But my knowledge of his catalogue is pretty much limited to that "Brick" tune, some song I think might be about angry dwarfs, and that thing he ripped off from that other dude involving Chat Roulette**.

All that being said, somehow I encountered this track recently - if vaguest memory serves, I might have picked it up via Soundhound - and after seeking it out, my thoughts were confirmed. The verdict?

Damn catchy.

This is a prime example of a song that's been stuck in my head for more than five days, one that I feel compelled to get my fix for, and one that I will almost certainly burn out in short order (only to rediscover in the future to great delight).



Check out this alternative version that features a orangutan.****

Hope you dig it.

By the unrelated way, sun's still out in San Francisco. Have a great Friday.


*Or the eponymous band. Given there's a 25% chance you're heading to dictionary.com right now to check our what this "eponymous" is all about, consider that one free of charge. Hm... new idea: 10 Cent Word Corner. Am I writing this all down? So many good ideas...
**HYPERLINK PARTY, y'all!!!
***Case in point: while writing this post, I had a tab playing the video open, and I was repeatedly distracted by the music, causing this post to take far longer than it should of to write. Catchy.
****See that? Options. That's what we provide here at WIDWIMW. You're worth it.
