this song is straight up captivating.
This one sounds a half step out of alignment.
This is absolutely surreal.
Beautiful Noise very Wilson-esque
This is incredible. I wish I could be in his shoes, watching his song turned into an orchestral masterpiece
The people that transcribed his “piano band that rocks” into orchestral music deserve a lot of the credit.
im 37 i discovered ben about 4 years ago, and he changed my life with his lyrics and somtimes quirky out look on life. i have never said this about any man. but i love this bloke. one of the greatest song writers of this century. keep going ben never stop.

Jeez, can it get any better?
WOW! What an amazing version of this song!
thank you Ben for making so many beautiful and amazing songs..
I LOVE YOU!!!!]
this is a class song, I don’t understand how ben can write songs as amazing as this, he’s like a modern day mozart, just much different music.
ever since i was a little kid, the verse starting at 2:57 has always given me goosebumps
i looove this. ben is so magical in this, i lvoe the opera too
Amazazing! I especially loved the opera addition.
It’s probably when he writes his music. Only way to explain how genius they are!
One of my all time favorite Ben Folds masterpieces as is…and they added brass, among other things, I can die happy now.
Sleep would be nice.
You can buy the DVD on Amazon.
This is Phenomenal!!! There is so much emotion pouring out of this masterpiece that is gives me goosebumps.
Does anyone know if you can purchase this concert?
what a voice!
This just gave me ultra goosebumps… an astounding rendition of “Narcolepsy”.
from a person with N: epic depiction – musical hallucination – I’m floored at how incredibly well Narcolepsy comes through in this piece. MY lord, Ben Folds, you MUST it have to render it so perfectly The xylophones were a nice and unexpected touch. The sole piano – the way you play – THANKS
amazing, briliant, genius! i love ben folds!
he seemed flat because he was supposed to be flat to create a contrast between them. didn’t you notice how when the orchestra picked up they were flat, and seemed more dull while folds was sharp which made his part seem lighter and happier? its like that to create a sort of contrast which is reaallly hard to make sound good, but they did it really well.
