Has a couple creative songs on there. I like it.

Best song he did; "Real" with Brad Paisley. Surprisingly, a very good song!

Common People is out here in the UK and seems to be pretty popular. I like the song, but pity about the lyrics.

Yeah, but it has nothing to do with the show TOS...
Oh well.

Wow, I think this is like my first post ever in TOS...

he's not quoting anything, it's his original poetry that Ben Folds put to music. I think it's... very... Shatneresque. It's just so weird that some of it is almost good and the rest you just have to luahg at. My little brother is buying the entire record though.

My favorites are... I don't remember what the first one's called, but he goes "Because you're.... gonna die." and the other one is "Has Been" because Never Done Jack, Don't Say Dick, and Two Thumbs Don are exactly like three of my friends and it makes me laugh that William Shatner wrote amean poem about them.

We got the CD. There's a couple tracks that aren't on his website, one is just him reading a poem with very soft music in the background and he recounts when his wife drowned to death. Really sad, kind of... I don't know.. unsettling? Anyway. Crazy William Shatner

Acting, Writing...Okay. Singing, Albums - NO! The guy can't sing, why would he try again? You know I heard he collaborated with the Ben Fold's Five...what kind of music do they do?
