This made a grown man cry. Such a beautiful moment captured here. Heavenly actually, except in heaven it doesn’t end. Won’t that be nice. May all of us be ready for that day.
No disrespect to Ed, he's a great singer/songwriter. He didn't know the chords to the song though and raised the tempo, probably because of the crowd and setting. That sucked the soul out of Damien's song.
Love Ed , love this song, clearly so does Ed, maybe he should learn it properly lol Damien Rice was the first act I saw at my very first Glastonbury , a beautiful unforgettable intimate set. 💖
There's this thing in our lives: Something in exchange for something. We always wondered where this unexplainable beauty he gives us through music is coming from and I think the things he had sacrificed is a major part of it. Not that I'm glad it happened. If anything, I'll gladly accept a world without his music in exchange for his happiness. I adore him so much. But not gonna lie, that world will feel empty.
@@ropieselle907 everyone feels pain and grief, and Rice’s ability to turn all his suffering and turmoil into something so sublime and universally resonating is truly something to be admired.
@@DressedRunner but it's just saddening to think how he has to go through these things. Countless pain to a masterpiece, what a heartbreaking system that cannot be changed.
@@klickingkayasmr7585 You can hear whatever you wish as to why Lisa and Damien drifted apart but at least have the respect for both of them to keep your hearsay off of the internet. Appreciate his music. Leave the tabloid crap to the red tops.
Excuse my language but FUCK! This oke is a legend! Such respect for his art, for his lyrics, for his class, for his I-dont-conform-to-this-shit-music-today skill, his attitude, his modesty, his pure talent... Every hat I have ever owned, Mr. Rice, I lift to you, Sir. Truly, a genius, in every aspect of harmony and voice.
I met some lads from Cork in Boston. They seemed to be tough guys; for a lad from the Boston burbs. Seems like Cork may have lightened up a bit over the last 30 years.
