artist: Ben Folds Five song: Lullabye album: The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner trans.: Brent Ritchey (mxpx281@hotmail.com)
( This song is different in that it really has no chorus. It's probably, however, the album's most lyrical song. Of stylistic note are the blues slurs. On several of the piano licks the chords are textured with a quick minor 3rd grace note. Such as: F with a quick Ab grace note up to A. )
