This song is amazing! does anyone know he he is talkin about the girl being too young? is she the same girl mentioned in the blowers daughter? thanks just wondering .
i love this! Damien is the ideal folk artist, yet he's always using, what sound like, very 90's punk vides and abstract sounds. take the spontaneous opera part from Eskimo or the droning beat of the guitar from Prague! love it!
Pamela Anderson is like eating a Big Mac. She's great to fuck once in a while but too much of her is bad for you in the long run. Lisa Hannigan is like eating a salad, rice, potatoes and a badass Pot Roast..with some fruits to go along with it. You can live off that stuff for the rest of your life.
@tesshall23 Ummmmmm.....Cause Imma Guy...and more often than not...Men have to choose between short term pleasures that makes them feel like shit after they're done indulging...and of course long term pleasures..that may not be as stimulating but it's more fulfilling , more calm, laid back/spiritual all in all..will make one more content in the long run.
Neither is better without the other (professionally speaking of course).
@azimuth457 Yes, exactly like that. Have you ever heard of tragic love affairs. Their relationship reminds me of exactly that. It just seems like they are so much better together; like they have the proverbial cosmic bond.
PLEASE DON'T READ THIS. YOU WILL BE KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. NOW YOU'VE STARTED READING THIS. DON'T STOP. THIS IS SO FREAKY. 1 say your name 10 times 2. Say your mom's name 5 times 3. Say your crushes name 3 times 4. past this to 4 other songs. If you do this, your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday, but if you read this and do not paste this, then you will have very bad luck...
The one singer songwriter that manages to do something truly original. Love the different arrangement, even better than the album. By the by - I don't give a hang about their personal lives - I listen for the music.
no one else can create this kind of music..they aren't actually songs...they are the strongest scream of a feeling , that's why there will always be a moment everyone needs a little bit (or not that little) of damien rice's music :))
This is my all time favorite song. I found it luckily thru thebathroomgirl who did an excellent cover, but still doesn't touch damien and lisa. Sexy as f***.
Lisa Hannigan is the better singer, but Rice's songwriting is what made them great. To compare Hannigan to Rice is like comparing Art Garfunkel to Paul Simon: the former is a great singer, but the latter is the genius that did most of the work and made the music truly innovative and different.
i love how relaxed they all are together as musicians. if just seems to me that there is a natural flow in the air whenever i watch a live performance.
@JoeSingsBadly I don't think it's an outlandish statement at all. There are some people who feel that Lisa Hannigan was a major part of the group, and that her voice adds to the hauntingly beautiful melodies that he creates. Yes, he's a genius at his work but so is Lisa. They're both equally talented in their own ways : )
@motifontheback He's an amazing singer/songwriter and believe me, I loved his music before Lisa's but he left her out in the dust after all the years she was in the group. She never had an recognition whenever they performed. Even he said himself he "would give away all the music success, all the songs, and the whole experience to still have Lisa in my life." But what an asshole he is, he had to f*ck it up. That is why I only listen to his music because of Lisa Hannigan's haunting voice & story.
@JadeForMercury oh i had no idea of the story between the two of them. im sorry i didnt mean for you to have to explain yourself to me, you dont owe anyone on the internet an explanation ever, is what i always say haha, but this info is good to know
@motifontheback Just google "damien rice and lisa hannigan" and you'll see a bunch of titles like "Lisa Hannigan on being dumped by Damien Rice..." or "Damien Rice opens up about split with Lisa Hannigan". Too much drama to explain in less than 500 words
As good and talented a singer Lisa is... Damien is a true artist and a musical genius. I don't know if its just me.. but I think the song and its lyrics turns Lisa into an irresistible goddess of beauty. The way she sings it with emotion.. and the way they respond and blend with each other is what makes them so good. I'm really disappointed that they split up. There's only going to be one Lisa Hannigan, but I'm positive that Damien can make anyone shine with his talent.
love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love this so so so so much!!! perfect!!
pa raaam pa raaaaaaaam... tell you what: you hold back on the mountains, and I'll take my share of the sea from you, ok? I'll keep my fictionalized self righteous perfections to myself so we both can swim together in our separate seas :))
This performance is so powerful. They're singing about one another, but not making eye contact, or relating in any way. I've come to love Damien Rice over the last year or so. Lisa Hannigan is a gorgeous singer. She needs to step up and shine. Her first CD wasn't strong enough. Go, Lisa!
lisa hannigan is amazing on her own but her damien together it is literally magic she should have got more solo's on her own. lisa is one of the most beautiful souls.
Am I the only person who thinks that what makes them so great is that the lyrics are all true? The relationship between them is played out in every song. It's painful to watch. He's filled with self-love and self-loathing and addicted to her sweetness while trying to save her from himself. It's sub dom. She's right when she's quoted as saying that their strange breakup as singers was the best thing that's ever happened to her. Damien messed up.
@TheCumeanSibyl Everyone thinks these songs are about eachother. Damien wrote this song long before he even met Lisa. Basically the whole of O is old Juniper songs (A rock band he was in during the 90's) and even some songs from 9 are Juniper songs. Lisa has nothing to do with them. Bell X1 actually released this song a few years before Damien. Lisa wasn't in it. And Damien hadn't met Lisa yet. Totally unrelated.
@Nickpatient I hadn't checked here for a while! Surprised (and flattered) that so many people voted up my comment! I admit I just wrote what it felt and looked like - I'd read some articles on their relationship, but hadn't researched when the songs were written. Thanks for the information Nick! Still think it's amazing that the lyrics seem to fit so well, but guess that good lyrics and good performances just make it seem like it ;)
@Nickpatient I know that this one was written way before Lisa came on the scene, however surely Damien has written at least a couple songs about her before? There was definitely something going on between them both, they're perfect for each other :)
@Nickpatient Very true, but songs can also take different shapes and take on new meaning. I have seen Lisa get almost angry looking singing this song. Maybe a coincidence, but who knows?
It doesn't make it any less applicable in my opinion. Good songs like this are timeless and apply to a lot of situations. Regardless, maybe it was serendipitous. :)
@Nickpatient Just because it wasn't about Lisa when he wrote it doesn't mean it isn't about Lisa now. Songs can change meanings even long after they're written.
@tmfcovers.. you no nothing that comment made no sense mate!! when damien met lisa she was a history student in trinity.. id be shocked if damien ever wrote a song about lisa.. its not his style to write about relationships that actually happened!!
@itsgian When was this song written? Never seen anything saying it was written before they met.. They both worked n the album together which was his first without his band.
@TheCumeanSibyl Yeah this song was written in the mid-90's... By Damien. Lisa is a vocalist and Damien is an artist. I don't see how anyone could want to not work with this genius. It's definitely her loss.
@TheCumeanSibyl wow what an analysti, you ve never actually met them and you can find this out just reading between the lines of their songs, i'm impressed, can you tell us what they used to have for breakfast too?
@jeffreylebowsky Yeah, I feel kind of bad about that... of course I don't know a thing about them, except that Damien is an incredibly talented artist and one of my favourite musicians. They're both such expressive performers it's hard not to have an emotional response, and I typed it out without thinking about it. My apologies to both of them if they ever read it! But since you asked, I'd bet Damien had toast/coffee, Lisa muesli/fruit ;) heh.
this has been one of my favorite performances captured by film for years now. my god, it just fills your soul with everything that can possibly be good about music. truly remarkable, it's a shame lisa and damien no longer perform together. they made such an astonishingly great duet.
@hotgluefingerboard11 Mate, actually, only a small percentage of rap is about these simplistic things. It's just, that small percentage is what gets aired on the tele and the radio, making it seem like thats all that exists. A vast majority of rap comes from artists who were compelled to speak their hearts. It's all about where you look, and when you listen. Aside from that, this song is beautiful, and I find it hard to appreciate your elitist view while listening to it.
This was the best rendition of this song ever made. There was no outside world, only that moment. They were in another dimension. The magic was so deafening, and yet, you probably could have heard a pin drop in the room during the climax.
Just to let Damien Rice fans know, I've created a new fansite, The Coconut Skins Community! The address is damienrice.yuku.com.
Here you will find information regarding Damien Rice in a relaxed atmosphere, and about other subjects. And you'll be able to communicate with other fans!
It's free to join and you can leave anytime you want. I know another Damien Rice community, Eskimofriends, has a history of very severe conflict with members. I don't intend on having these problems.
she's amazing.

Am I the only person who thinks that what makes them so great is that the lyrics are all true? The relationship between them is played out in every song. It's painful to watch. He's filled with self-love and self-loathing and addicted to her sweetness while trying to save her from himself. It's sub dom. She's right when she's quoted as saying that their strange breakup as singers was the best thing that's ever happened to her. Damien messed up.

@TheCumeanSibyl Everyone thinks these songs are about eachother. Damien wrote this song long before he even met Lisa. Basically the whole of O is old Juniper songs (A rock band he was in during the 90's) and even some songs from 9 are Juniper songs. Lisa has nothing to do with them. Bell X1 actually released this song a few years before Damien. Lisa wasn't in it. And Damien hadn't met Lisa yet. Totally unrelated.

@Nickpatient I hadn't checked here for a while! Surprised (and flattered) that so many people voted up my comment! I admit I just wrote what it felt and looked like - I'd read some articles on their relationship, but hadn't researched when the songs were written. Thanks for the information Nick! Still think it's amazing that the lyrics seem to fit so well, but guess that good lyrics and good performances just make it seem like it ;)

@Nickpatient I know that this one was written way before Lisa came on the scene, however surely Damien has written at least a couple songs about her before? There was definitely something going on between them both, they're perfect for each other :)

@Nickpatient Very true, but songs can also take different shapes and take on new meaning. I have seen Lisa get almost angry looking singing this song. Maybe a coincidence, but who knows?

It doesn't make it any less applicable in my opinion. Good songs like this are timeless and apply to a lot of situations. Regardless, maybe it was serendipitous. :)

@UseMeAbuseMe4Ever Just like them splitting in 2008 was serendipitous?

@Nickpatient Just because it wasn't about Lisa when he wrote it doesn't mean it isn't about Lisa now. Songs can change meanings even long after they're written.

@itsgian When was this song written? Never seen anything saying it was written before they met.. They both worked n the album together which was his first without his band.

@TheCumeanSibyl Yeah this song was written in the mid-90's... By Damien. Lisa is a vocalist and Damien is an artist. I don't see how anyone could want to not work with this genius. It's definitely her loss.

@TheCumeanSibyl wow what an analysti, you ve never actually met them and you can find this out just reading between the lines of their songs, i'm impressed, can you tell us what they used to have for breakfast too?

@jeffreylebowsky Yeah, I feel kind of bad about that... of course I don't know a thing about them, except that Damien is an incredibly talented artist and one of my favourite musicians. They're both such expressive performers it's hard not to have an emotional response, and I typed it out without thinking about it. My apologies to both of them if they ever read it! But since you asked, I'd bet Damien had toast/coffee, Lisa muesli/fruit ;) heh.

this has been one of my favorite performances captured by film for years now. my god, it just fills your soul with everything that can possibly be good about music. truly remarkable, it's a shame lisa and damien no longer perform together. they made such an astonishingly great duet.

Thank GOD Rappers don't go to Abbey Road to record. That would disgrace Abbey Road.

@lillea18 keyword: some. But the majority of rap artists today rap about sex, drugs, and money.

@hotgluefingerboard11 Mate, actually, only a small percentage of rap is about these simplistic things. It's just, that small percentage is what gets aired on the tele and the radio, making it seem like thats all that exists. A vast majority of rap comes from artists who were compelled to speak their hearts. It's all about where you look, and when you listen. Aside from that, this song is beautiful, and I find it hard to appreciate your elitist view while listening to it.

This was the best rendition of this song ever made. There was no outside world, only that moment. They were in another dimension. The magic was so deafening, and yet, you probably could have heard a pin drop in the room during the climax.

Excellent!
Just to let Damien Rice fans know, I've created a new fansite, The Coconut Skins Community! The address is damienrice.yuku.com.
Here you will find information regarding Damien Rice in a relaxed atmosphere, and about other subjects. And you'll be able to communicate with other fans!
It's free to join and you can leave anytime you want. I know another Damien Rice community, Eskimofriends, has a history of very severe conflict with members. I don't intend on having these problems.
