'You Don't Know Me' is the super cute first single from the new Ben Folds' album 'Way To Normal'. It's jaunty, bouncy and makes me think of something you might hear on Avenue Q / Sesame Street (this isn't necessarily a bad thing). A duet with Regina Spektor, it's the kind of pairing that geeky indie kids everywhere will be swooning over. It's impossible not to go all gooey particularly with the little talky breakdown bit towards the end. I heart Regina's "say it!". The official video sucks so I want you to watch this sweet fan made one instead.[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRgQns-TJGM[/youtube]
I love Ben Folds, not a big fan of Spektor's but am thinking of giving her another try after hearing this. Oh and that fan vid is very, very sweet!
