  • Whatever and ever amen è il secondo album dei Ben Folds Five, uscito il 18 marzo del 1997. Il 22 marzo 2005 è stata pubblicata una versione rimasterizzata del disco con sette tracce bonus fra cui b-sides e cover (come Video Killed the Radio Star dei Buggles) e versioni live. Il titolo dell'album deriva da una frase della canzone Battle of Who Could Care Less, che è stato anche il primo singolo del disco. L'album è stato registrato fra settembre e ottobre del 1996 nella casa di Ben Folds a Chapel Hill, e ha al suo interno numerose interferenze lo-fi. Ad esempio, al minuto 2:54 di Steven's Last Night in Town si può sentire un telefono squillare; Ben Folds ha in seguito dichiarato che la chiamata inaspettata era da parte di un amico del Minnesota, ma visto che si integrava alla perfezione nel brano si è deciso di lasciarla. Nella canzone Cigarette invece si possono sentire dei grilli in sottofondo. (it)

All of the extra tracks had been previously released (as b-sides, soundtrack contributions, etc.) except for a cover of the Buggles song "Video Killed the Radio Star," which is a staple of Ben Folds Five's live show.

  • Whatever and Ever Amen är den amerikanska pianorockgruppen Ben Folds Fives andra studioalbum, släppt den 5 februari 1997. Albumet spelades in i ett hus som frontfiguren Ben Folds hade hyrt i Chapel Hill i North Carolina i USA. Detta ledde till en del bakgrundsljud. Ungefär 2:54 in i "Steven's Last Night in Town" kan man svagt höra en telefon som ringer. Man kan också höra basisten skratta till. Folds har senare sagt att det var en vän som ringde från Minnesota och att signalen passade så bra in i låten att man lät den vara kvar. Dessutom hörs syrsor i bakgrunden under "Cigarette". Albumets titel kommer från en textrad i "Battle of Who Could Care Less". Låten "Steven's Last Night in Town" handlar om Folds vän , en producent och manager som vunnit flera Grammy Awards. Texten till "Cigarette" inspirerades av en tidningsartikel om en man som ansökte om skilsmässa från sin fru när han fick reda på att hon hade en hjärntumör, eftersom hon inte var samma person som han gift sig med.[källa behövs] En uppföljare till "Cigarette", "Fred Jones Part 2", finns på Folds första soloalbum Rockin' the Suburbs. Nick Hornby skriver om "Smoke" i sin bok 31 låtar. En remastrad version av albumet släpptes den 22 mars 2005, med sju bonuslåtar. Två av dessa är covers, "Video Killed the Radio Star" av The Buggles och "She Don't Use Jelly" av The Flaming Lips. (sv)
