Notes: These songs are not available on any other release... yet. Produced and written by Ben Folds. All instruments played and recorded by Ben at the Silvermine in Adelaide, Australia. Ben was asked to write a song for the film "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas." In his own words, "...Oh yeah. And it doesn't sound much like that Grinch song either. That's a kids song for a movie I recorded with my portable Roland demo recorder and 3 mics. When they asked me for a song, I didn't understand that it was a kids movie and I wrote a song about Santa that went, "Ole Santa, he's a big fat fu**. Went down the chimney and got his fat ass stuck." When i realized it was a kids movie, I put that song away and gave 'em a kids song and now I can afford nappies for the next year. Funny how that works. I'll put out the fat ass Santa song next year and that won't pay for anything but it'll be fun. Maybe I'll send out an mp3 of "Santa's a big fat fu**" and don't tell anyone where it came from or the boss will be pissed." Thanks to greyseal for the scans and info.
