About this song: Do It Anyway
According to the Do It Anyway Songfacts there were two inspirations for this song - the birthday cards that Ben Folds mom used to give him and the response from the member of the crowd to how he introduced a ballad he was about to play. "OKAY! Let's try once again. Have an unmastered track from the new Ben Folds Five album. It's called "Do It Anyway". The intensity of the track is typical of the rest of the album, but each song is quite different. That always was the way with our records I suppose. We're nearly done and I think it's a cracker.
