He's got a great wit, and can invoke a great poignant moment... and do both almost at once, which is a rare skill. Plus very sound musicianship.... and "flat voice", what? He's someone I don't listen to much except in bursts, but when I go on a Ben Folds kick it'll last for days before boredom sets in. ~Becc :-) - -- www.crappism.org ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2003 05:26:40 -0700 (PDT) From: Nathan "Ž" Subject: Re: [oztori] Ben Folds on Tori...

'Poignant' is such a cliche'd word to use in a review where one wishes to look 'intelligent'.

I'm not so insecure that I need to "wish to look intelligent".

It was actually the perfect word to use in that situation, though: I was talking about generic poignant moments, not going any more particular than that. If you're incensed by the word's overuse in other situations, go ahead and boil, but it's hardly relevant to the topic at hand. I'm withdrawing from this here, btw, before this turns into the kind of two-player ping-pong that doesn't belong on list. 'night Nayth.
