@SageBazle- Um... Call me crazy, but this never comes after "The Luckiest." Unless that's how they have it on iTunes or something. On the Japanese version as well as on the vinyl version of the album, where it's tacked on as a bonus track, it comes right before the title track, "Rockin' The Suburbs." Then it goes into "Fired," and then "The Luckiest" - that track still closes out the album. Look it up if you want.

To all the people asking why he didn't think this was 'good' enough, this *was* released. This was a bonus track only available on the Japanese version of the CD, they just didn't release it outside of Japan

I don't why he didn't think this was good enough to release.

This song was way before that one. It's another.

Ben isn't doing the same thing as Kesha. Ben's stuff isn't marketed in a way that makes it spread like like wildfire; but people are still appreciating it 20 years later in healthy numbers. The kind of stuff that gets a hundred million of views on Youtube definitely brings in a lot of people, but those people are likely to forget about it in a couple of months. It's a very different kind of fame. (I'm making a massive generalisation about Kesha because I don't know anything about her. Sorry!)

My name is Hiro and having a sound named like your name is really cool. What makes it cooler? The song is awesome.

When I saw him live he played this using only his voice and a shaker. It still sounded freaking awesome!!

I like this song and all..... But it just should not be AFTER "The Luckiest." I don't think there's another song that could have closed the album than that one. It rips my fucking heart out every time. In the best way possible.

I wish I had this song on iTunes so i wouldn't have to keep going to youtube.com. I have 98 cents. I'm not kidding. I need another 10 dollar iTunes card for an extra penny.

@hklinker You're right, that's too harsh on WTN and it is just my opinion. WTN has several really good songs; I was just disappointed with it overall. I guess I'm into Ben's "story" songs a lot. Plus, I realized I still have over half the album in my iPod frequent play list (the Colognes, Effington, Frowne Song, You Don't Know Me, Errant Dog, Free Coffee). It may be my least favorite Ben album, but it's still higher on my list than just about any other artist's.

@TheNCBob It is not twice as good as anything on WTN. You just don't like WTN. It's good for you that you like Lonely Avenue.

One of my favorites. It says something about poor Way To Normal, though. This song was cut from the same cloth; like WTN songs, it's quirky and offbeat with a sort of "F-You" vibe. However, it's twice as good as any song on WTN, yet didn't make the cut for Rockin' The Suburbs. Thank goodness Lonely Avenue was a return to form!

@3sonkeys Agree on Losing Lisa, but disagree a lot with both of you on Carrying Cathy. Dang that's a serious tearjerker, and sort of poetic in my opinion. C'mon man, her window was hung like a picture frame! She was sinking into the dark after he closed the door! I also love the baseline; reminds me of Norwegian Wood somehow. Great stuff.

@3sonkeys carrying cathy is "ok" but it kinda falls in the same category as fired and losing lisa, after seeing ben folds live 6 times i have never heard him play either of those three songs live
