I love these demos, particularly eskimo friend, though I prefer the studio version because of Doreen Curan's powerful addition. Long live sopranos, they are one of the reasons why I believe in a supreme creator.
I first heard Damien because of the TV show "Lost", I think you will find your obsession will turn into a lifelong love of his music, it certainly has for me. :)

It's four in the morning, the end of December I'm writing you now just to see if you're better New York is cold, but I like where I'm living There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair She said that you gave it to her That night that you planned to go clear Did you ever go clear? Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder You'd been to the station to meet every train, and You came home without Lili Marlene And you treated my woman to a flake of your life And when she came back she was nobody's wife Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth One more thin gypsy thief Well, I see Jane's awake She sends her regards And what can I tell you my brother, my killer What can I possibly say? I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you I'm glad you stood in my way If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me Well, your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes I thought it was there for good so I never tried And Jane came by with a lock of your hair She said that you gave it to her That night that you planned to go clear
Thats weird, its very popular on South African radio. This was the version that introduced me to Damien, but now that explains why this version is so hard to find legally
The first Damien Rice song that made me fall in love with his works. This song literally drives me to tears evertyime, as much as Sigur Ros' Daudaglon kicks me so hard in the heart evertyime. Such beauty!! So glad to be alive to hear these songs!!
