Rocky Mountains

I watched the ABC video and it just says he lives in the Rocky Mountains, not necessarily Colorado. 97.118.80.1 (talk) 10:52, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just added a Showbiz Tonight reference to source Colorado.--Oakshade (talk) 19:54, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I live in Colorado, I do an improvised music TV show on Denver Open Media every tuesday night, and I am a big fan of Ben Folds. I would recognize him anywhere, and for what its worth, I'm positive that Merton is Ben Folds, and that this is all a joke he's playing on the media... of course that's not fit for the article, but if we want to be accurate, we should scrutinize naive media reporting. Or we can just play along. I dont think he even meant to hide the fact that he's Merton at first, he just thought it would be more interesting to be a random guy. 129.19.150.253 (talk) 00:54, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notability?

How does this fall under the notability guidelines? DJLarZ (talk) 12:10, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

By receiving significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.--Oakshade (talk) 13:58, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

More juicy info from the man himself

There is an interview of Merton where the man himself tells even more information about himself right here - 24.36.115.4 (talk) 00:23, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reference?

Merton -- or "Meruton" is a spell in Final Fantasy 6. in the original release, the spell "Meruton" was improperly translated into "Merton" instead of "Meltdown." Do these things have anuything in common with the fellow by this same name? Because yeah, weird. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.128.56.194 (talk) 22:58, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
