it's very haunting the way lisa sings, she's like a voice in your head. I think rice always knows how he wants the song to make people feel. every single song has a soul.
my absolute favourite Damien song..."Papa went to other lands and found someone who understands"...something about that lyric makes me well up every time...You can take what you want from the lyrics, thats the beauty of Damien's writing..Its not just music, music is for average artists, THIS IS POETRY IN MOTION...He is without doubt the greatest Irish songwriter of our lifetime, not even Bono comes close although Van Morrison is not too far off, Van is another poet !!
'older gents sit on the fence cap in hand, lookin grand..they watch their city change'......i love Damien Rice. His lyrics resonate in such a powerful way!
Damien Rice together with Lisa Hannigan and the band are probably the most beautiful thing you can listen to. Even though they appear casual and not ready at all, they give us music that we will remember for life. It saddened me so much to see them split up. But I guess it's just as he sang. Some things in life may change. We watch our city change. I watched them split, but you know the music will always stay the same :)
This song has brought me into acoustic music and made me realise that there isn't one person in the world that has a perfect life ahead of them. "We all seem to need the help of someone else to mend that shelf" The lyrics are magical, sung beautifully by both to make it one of the most amazing performances i've seen on youtube so far!
Every time i pick up my ukulele, this is one of the songs i always go to, its easy to play, laid back and just wonderful, but i cant sing for toffee =)
this trio is very underrated. individually, each posseses a unique talent. collectively, they create amazing music. such wonderful musicians. they need more exposure. i can't wait for a new album.
Normally I have lots to say, but when it comes to this paring,just sit back and listen to pure gold. The song is pure and special, “I’ll shut up now” 🙏🏴👍
this song i´ve heard for the first time because of my girlfriend was sad about her x-relationship and we heard it together and understand that we belong to each other! thx for this awesome song!
