Line 5:
* "Don't Change Your Plans" is another one.
* "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CCUtcnexEY Kylie From Connecticut]" is a great one off his new album that can really get you, especially the heartbreaking cry of the chorus.
* And then there's "[http://www.songmeanings.net/songs/view/33/ Cigarette]", which packs a heck of a lot of tragedy into a [[Single -Stanza Song]]. Even moreso when you find out it's taken verbatim from a newspaper clipping. Man, can Ben Folds write an incredibly sad song when he wants to (although to give proper credit "Magic" was written by Darren Jessee).
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt5EHAqhR1c "Brick"]. It's especially horrible if you know the [[httpwikipedia://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brick_<!-- 28song29Brick chr(28)songchr(29)|backstory.]] -->
* Not to mention Ben Folds' simple, personal lament to Smith, "Too Late". *Sigh* "The songs you wrote... got me through a lot, just wanna tell you that... But it's too late."
* "Fighting it" is a song about how teenage years are hard.
