This was the first festival I ever went to. I must have been young and stupid because I chose to see whoever else was on at the same time. Finally 11 years later I've made sure I have my tickets for their December tour nice and early! Thanks for posting :-)

@W3LSH100 : The melody of both songs seem very similar, although Ben's version is obviously much more upbeat and both contain a Hiro and a Yuko. Blur's song is on an album called "The Great Escape" which, in a nutshell, is a concept album about mid-life crisis and desperate attempts to feel young, which is basically what Hiro in Ben's version is suffering from. I would be so shocked if Ben's song wasn't inspired by Blur.

If there is any connection i think the blur song "yuko and hiro" is much better.

Damn...Ben Folds, Millard Powers, AND Snuzz on the same stage. Oh, what I'd give for a time machine so I could see that in person.

so its like he took the themes in yuko and hiro by blur and elaborated, made his own narrative to. unless yuko and hiro are names that are from some other narrative or something in Japanese culture. can anyone elaborate if they know?

I think it's from the Japanese version of Rockin the Suburbs

you can tell these guys are really talented musicians the way they can make something so simple sound so good and play it with such, for lack of a better word, flair without having to show off.

I just discovered this song not too long ago, despite listening to Ben for years (and having 100+ of his songs). It's now one of my favorites.

Goodness, this is one of his songs I will always love, and will always know the words to, no matter how long I've not listen to it.
