dont think he wants to be be any other way tbh, within the genre he is quite appreciated and i dont feel like he measures his success by the number of people listening to his music (especially if its the wrong people lol)
It's guys like Damien Rice who show the world why the Irish are the best musicians/storytellers. Simply a man and his guitar, no need for anything else. Love him!
I think we need to clear some things up. Not everyone is special this is why artists like Damien Rice is underrated, because there is not so much people left to aprreciate the art of music. We are unique souls united all around the world who has good taste of music. Not everyone needs or has to have this kind of ability, we cannot make everyone like this kind of art but i think we are lucky to have this taste. It is like wine tasting or being a cook, everyone can cook but not everyone make an art from it. Lots of love from Turkey.
Damien rice is a musical genius, I've seen him live and I've seen some amazing awesome artists but wow , I left that stadium in bits. He touched my soul the way pink Floyd do when you're stoned lol
Both are equally great! I have addicted with the album song since forever, especially the outro part (up until now, no song ever top the album version of MFFF in my music apps). All those backing musical instruments are a total bliss
Went through some stuff recently with my Wife. Some real hard shit. Damien rice saved me with his way to relate to the more complicated things in a relationship. He's lived through some stuff, and he expresses what greater empathy a person can have with his music. My marriage is healthier now because these songs made me stop and think, I wish more music out there would give people pause before shooting themselves in the foot.
"My Favourite Faded Fantasy" You could be my favourite taste To touch my tongue I know someone who could serve me love But it wouldn’t fill me up You could have my favourite face And favourite name I know someone who could play the part But it wouldn’t be the same No it wouldn’t be the same No it wouldn’t be the same No it wouldn’t be the same As with you You could be my favourite place I’ve ever been I got lost in your willingness To dream within the dream You could be my favourite faded fantasy I’ve hung my happiness upon what it all could be And what it all could be What it all, what it all could be What it all, what it all could be With you What it all, what it all could be What it all, what it all could be What it all, what it all could be With you You could hold the secrets that save Me from myself I could love you more than love could All the way from hell You could be my poison, my cross, My razor blade I could love you more than life If I wasn’t so afraid Of what it all could be What it all, what it all could be Of what it all, what it all could be With you What it all, what it all could be Of what it all, what it all could be What it all, what it all could be With you Loved is all that bloomed Always what you did Never let someone go or they... I ain't never loved like you I’ve never loved I've never loved I’ve never loved loved loved like you I’ve never loved I’ve never loved I’ve never loved
This album to me is a work of genius. If you've ever been in a relationship. Broken from a relationship. Tryna figure out a relationship, this album emotes pure gut wrenching feels. I always listen it all the way through. ❤️🔥
He is the greatest musician and songwriter that ever lived in my opinion. I don't feel anyone else comes close to the emotion you can feel from every song every time you play it, and if you've seen him live...it's like witnessing a DemiGod in person
You could be My poison, my cross, my razor blade.... I could love you more than life.. if I wasn’t so afraid... of what it all could be.. just beautifully dark and so real these lyrics. True genius...
While I was listening to this song for the first time, I imagined of the picture which Damien and Lisa were performing together. Wish to see them reunion.
You could hold my secrets and save me from myself? Wow Damien, makes me feel so delicate but yet I feel so much sensation ♡ he has so much passion in every lyric his voice takes me passed a fantasy into paradise reality ¤♡¤ beautiful Damien Rice Thanks love you bunches ♡
One man can produce deeply meaningfull and worthy music only using his guitar and voice, that's something all these rap, pop, hip-hop-dope ass musicians can never understand nor value. The music industry is all fucked up.
will edmondson Nope. Rap technically isn't music. Literally takes no talent. It's just... rhyming. Singing actually takes real effort, talent, etc (Learning vibrato, being biologically able to reach higher notes, etc.). Sama Tibi, I completely agree.
I think she doesn't deserve it, because Damien has been writting such beautiful songs for her since his album "9" and now with this latest album does the same. As he said, he never loved some one like she. But I saw an interview of lisa when the reporter asked her for Damien, she doesn´t show any feelings for he, like he dosn't mean nothing for her. She never loved Damien like he do still love she
+Sergio Florescano Aguirre that interview where she's sitting and they ask her is before this album. And there's also this interview where he goes into detail about what happened between them--he basically admits to being a total ass. It's a good heartbreaking read. And the thing is he has changed since then and he's doing well...back doing music. www.eskimofriends.com/2009/12/20/interview-hot-press-5/
