Way to Normal

Ben Folds

High-velocity piano rock that pivots between biting sarcasm and genuine heartbreak. A percussive, witty, and occasionally noisy exploration of suburban fallout.

July 16, 2008 · Epic

Find on Amazon

A high-octane collision of defensive sarcasm and genuine post-breakup vulnerability.
