I love the imagery that the lord of the flies reference gives us. As well as when it says "right now" because referencing time is such a cool thing to do in something that stays the same as time changes. It's challenging the statement preceding it as something contemporary, it shows that it believes it's another sort of timeless concept.
Have always loved your music ever since I saw you perform at the Electric Ballroom in AZ. Thank you for standing up for education and the politics you believe in. You are helping to make a difference in our country. ❤️
It's really amazing to see how far Ben Folds has come! I've been listening to him for as long as I can remember, and I really love his music and his personality!
Reminds me of 60's protest songs... And it makes me wonder why there aren't more now, given the severity of the crisis we are in, and the complicity of the "leaders".
Beautiful composition, but lyrics haven’t aged well unfortunately. What a disappointment Rosenstein ended up being in the end, supporting Barr’s BS spin on Mueller’s report. He could have gone down in history as a hero. Couldn’t stick that landing I guess...
This is such a brilliant song created by one of our generation's greatest musical minds. I love the work that Ben Folds has done and I hope he knows how much we value him. My family and I made a cover version of Mister Peepers, which is here: czcams.com/video/u1sQOQZV4Bg/video.html. Like Ben, I also have my daughter singing the harmonies.
It sounds lovely and all, and I totally agree with the sentiment, but something about hearing "the institution still stands" in a Ben Folds song is still existentially depressing to me. A professor once told me I write like a journalist. I did not take it as a compliment. Maybe that's just me.
hello bftv, this came thru YT recommended stream but the song from 2 years was about our govt and candidates. Mr. Oldman helped with a movie taking to a time when UK was about fight the wrong (WWI). and Australia Chris gave another WWII movie at a location. Facts of then on screen but your song was of new immigrants lost here?? Or how are the cars vs. the Mr. Gore's approved mass bike program. That's not secure us wrong. elle for your rockin' the suburbs
Washington Post apparently commissioned this song. Washington Post is only good for toilet paper, but any new song by Ben Folds is welcome, and no matter your political persuasion, you should want to see bad actors called out wherever they are.

Does he want to make the US/world a better place for his family and for those good and decent people who have long been taken advantage of? Perhaps he could not stomach the thought of mass murders occurring to satisfy Moloch?

It saddens me that this has merely 2k views at this point. It's way too beautiful to go unheard by the majority of the people.
I was thinking the same thing, and how does he not have millions of subscribers? Too many people are missing out!
He doesn't even have a 100,000 subscribers!
He deserves to be in the same place as Drake and other artists that are popular nowdays
but sadly people dont care much about good music anymore :/
I like the vibe that you have in the song. It's clearly a Ben Folds song, but the folky instrumentation is new, and I like it.
I like the line “you can’t lose in court and appeal on Hannity”
Accordion2Kevin too bad Hannity was right from the beginning (and Alex Jones too): NO COLLUSION. Even your boy Rosenstein agreed: NO OBSTRUCTION

Can't wait to see the version of this cut to newspaper headline scans and news coverage.

Aww Gracie ❤️
This song is incredible
Hope Rosenstein hears this and it puts a smile on his face.
Right! I do hope he knows how many people support what he’s doing.
@@heidiwess3195What was he doing?
Fantastic song! Gracie sounded great.
☀️ + 👓 = 🔥
Reminds me of 60's protest songs... And it makes me wonder why there aren't more now, given the severity of the crisis we are in, and the complicity of the "leaders".
Coming back to this song again and again and getting punched in the gut every time I hear the line about facts and rule of law.
I love this so much. Thank you for releasing inspiring music!
They have indeed sent thugs to smash his glasses.
Who cares how many views you get. Keep doing what you love!
Ok. I can get behind this.
Loved it, please release more!
Finally a new song from Ben, it's been 3 long years without a good song like this
You rock my world! Been wondering if you would tackle this. THANK YOU!❤️
Turns out that Rosenstein was a rat the whole time. I still like the song. God save the republic.
Listening to this now is so much sadder than it already was. Lord help us all
never trust a man in a suit
Why am I just finding this now, this is really good.

Heavy on the satiric mispelling of going-to.

That poor Violinist, Ben you monster.
Beautiful composition, but lyrics haven’t aged well unfortunately. What a disappointment Rosenstein ended up being in the end, supporting Barr’s BS spin on Mueller’s report. He could have gone down in history as a hero. Couldn’t stick that landing I guess...
I love you and your stuff
Love the song. Where can I download it to support the artist?
Amazon and Itunes have it, not sure where else.

How does someone dislike this
Because it's a sad political grab, and a braindead one at that.
superb, l love you marry me.

To be fair, "the institution" is only what we make of it
Punk as f*ck. Great song.
