Ben Folds' cover of Such Great Heights

from jTV in Australia, Ben Folds' Like a Version from 2006, The Postal Service's "Such Great Heights." AND! You may or may not believe it, but The Postal Service's version IS the original. NOT Iron & Wine. Check your facts before arguing about it. Looking for the MP3? http://wokeupwaytoolate.com/filedump/Solo%20Tracks/Ben%20Folds%20-%20Such%20Great%20Heights.mp3 NAMED #70 on Triple J's Top 100 of 2006. Pretty good for a cover! Ben says that he forgot that he was supposed to be on Like a Version and "had to cover a popular song, and turned on my ipod and this was the most recently listened to song and found some drummers in the studio" (11/5/06 in Columbia, MO).... and tada, here we are. On the spot first time thing. Check how he's doing it now on other videos.

actually i like it. i think it could be as great as the original if he worked on it. ut i agree with what stratman9 said

What it comes down to is what kind of music fan you are - Postal Service's studio version is polished, electronic, and highly produced-sounding. Ben, especially live, has his sincere slightly-off-pitch way of singing, and there's no electronic trickery going on. Anything Ben plays, he could play in your living room on your piano and it would sound the same. It's a very different philosophy than Postal Service and other groups like them, and a matter of personal taste.
