He is awesome. Kinda like a Ben Folds/Beck/Weezer type sound. He rocks. Anyone else like BK? If you don't, you should!

He sounds exactly like Rivers Cuomo. It's scary. It really is.

LOL and for some reason I love Ben Kweller and can't stand Rivers...go figure? Just download the entire Sha Sha cd if you can. It's definitely worth it.

Songs to download: In Other Words, Sha Sha, Falling, Wasted & Ready, I Don't Know Why. Actually, all of his songs are awesome but those are a few of my favorites. He also has a cover of Undone the Sweater song, and it's really good.

He also does "Ice Ice Baby" too which is absolutely amazing.

Hahaha. Did you know your title says "waist" instead of "waste"? I find that funny for some reason.

There's 2 dif. versions of Wasted & Ready. I like the one with silent night in the middle. The best part of that song is "Why am I dealing with this feeling? I'm maxed out like a credit card."

I kept my puter on all night and dl'ed a whole bunch of this guy's stuff...he sounds like Ben Folds minus the piano. I like

Has anyone ever heard of the band Radish? BK was the lead singer/guitarist before he went solo. If you like BK, definatly check out Radish. It's a bit heavier, but still has a somewhat similar sound. Oh, the CD is our of print, but it's up on ebay all the time. The name of it is Restraining Bolt if you want to search for it.

holy crap, I saw the title of this topic and i thought "hmm, I made a topic exactly like this a long time ago" then I realized it was the same one!
yeah radish was pretty cool, but I think Ben's a lot more mature now and a lot happier doing his own thing.
