Album Description: Explicit version of Ben Folds' 2008 album Way to Normal. Ben Folds is best known as a solo artist and as the front-man pianist of Ben Folds Five. He is celebrated for a sound that bridges the worlds of Jazz and Power Rock. Consistently touring, Ben Folds has earned a reputation for his wit, musicality, and energetic live shows. With songs like 'Hiroshima' (which recounts his falling of the stage and hitting his head in Japan), Folds has proven to be a story-teller for the piano-rock generation. Way To Normal is the first full length release since Songs for Silverman, a very honest look at the last few years of Folds' life. Folds collaborated with Dennis Herring (Counting Crows, Modest Mouse, Elvis Costello) and the track 'You Don't Know Me' features a duet with indie songstress, Regina Spektor.

I'm an old Ben Folds Five fan. I haven't heard anything until today since he went Internet. This means Songs for Silverman was new to me today as well as Way To Normal. Honestly, Way To Normal was just ok. ... Read More

I never thought I would one day stop being a fan of Ben Folds, but this CD did it. No matter what he says, it is a divorce CD and not a good one at that. Leaving aside whether it's mature to record hate songs ... Read More
