Man, it's been so long. I haven't kept up with him at all. Heard about
him right when he came out with his cd. The only song I remember is
Falling. lol. I thought he was pretty good until I lost track of
him.[img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]

Kristi · 05-07-2004, 03:01 PM

DamosFavEyes · 05-08-2004, 07:51 PM

i've heard of him. never listened though.. i'm open to it, however.

Alistair · 05-09-2004, 11:41 AM

I have "sha sha" somewhere but can't honestly say i listen to it that much bought it because of the track included in the mr deeds soundtrack whatever that is. Don't remember the album very well, i guess i'll dig it out and put it on now [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

I saw him open for hte kings of leon and was not impressed. but he did look pretty hammered at the time.Edited by: #Ian#

Alistair · 05-09-2004, 02:38 PM

listened to the album and it was good but not that memorable again, did find myself humming and singing along to most of it though :]

i'm really only familiar with him because of his involvement in "the bens" - with ben folds and some other ben...

i think in one of his songs he wrote that butterflies are passive agressive... i thought that line was kind of ridiculous. pianos are good, though...

Kristi · 05-10-2004, 04:15 AM

Ben Lee.... "Just Pretend" is a class song

Kristi · 05-10-2004, 04:17 AM

as far as the butterfly part, i think a lot of his lyrics are very symbolic, thats one of the reasons i like him... [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

samuelle · 05-12-2004, 08:17 PM

i agree on "just pretend." but i hate that the bens temporarily delayed work on their individual albums.

and i guess on some level i know that the butterflies line is symbolic, but ijust amfar too amused at the idea of these butterflies flying around seeminglypassively but with a deep seated resentment, plottingmanipulative and guilt inducing schemes.

and i hatebutterflies. they have sticky feet, just like grasshoppers.

i downloaded your recommendations, kristi, quitegood!
