Ben Folds Songs For Silverman By Derek Dubois on Jan 17, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Songs for Silverman runs in the same vein as Ben Folds' other stuff. That is to say that it has the basic piano playing and the quirky/clever lyrics that Ben Folds is known for. This album, for me, runs a bit too much the same as his other album, but I'm a person who celebrates different qualities in all the music I have, so if you can listen to it and enjoy, that's great. For me, I just supplement this CD to the other one "Rockin' the Suburbs" which I celebrate more. But, Ben Folds, as I've said, is a terrific artist, and just listening to everything he has is a real treat when you're in the mood. I absolutely enjoy Ben Folds, and I'd say that having everything you can from him is pretty essential to a "good" music collection.
