I know your probably not going to read this but I'm writing it anyway.I'm a singer/songwriter from Ireland,I know I'm one of millions out there but as Ireland is such a small place the talent that comes from here is rarely recognised.I feel I'm writing real songs from my own personal experiences.So if you just take a minute out of your day to view my videos and maybe subscribe, you really dont understand how much this could help me. All I want is for honest music to be recognised!Thanks :)
Got some of these lyrics tattooed on my forearms today to remind myself to never let other people control my thoughts and emotions. I'm glad he played with Morrissey years ago so that I could be introduced to his music!
What a legend, to all the haters talking shit- '' You're jus mad because your life is sad, You've done nothing worth while , Twist the knife because you hate your life Our lives you want to spoil '', song says it all, Rock on Damo
i know damo and let me tell u pilgrims damo is the real deal, wat a man! every now and again he gives us a treat down the local of up close and personal acoustic that does not be planned, if your there your there and its a pleasure.
"Dont let physic spies from china try to steal your minds elation" "get in touch with the beauty, bring it in to your life and flow. Sovereign free minds rule OK! end of story.
first heard this in a pub in Montauk, pints flowing, never felt more proud of my heritage. the men and women there were all at the pub, working for rich ny'ers for the summer, its a tradition out there, but they embraced us, and we all sang along loud and proud. i was so filled with admiration for people, strong irish blood. thanks dempsey and thanks Ireland for giving a New Yorker some perspective, for shattering me and rebuilding me all in one song and pint
Damien Dempsey.... your song writing stops me in my tracks and brings me to my knees ... Your words say more than the history books ever could... why ? because they are honest..
