Shane Magowan is a great guy and i was brought up listening to the Pogues...thanks to ma Da....x x but never ever in your life is he better than Damien Rice, my Da would differ thou??lol.....As Damo sings...Everybodys getting old......x x
How many times is this guy gonna write the same song over and over again? This is not all Ireland has to offer in songwriting. Any one of shane Macgowans songs beats all of Rices work.
Well you should check him out. he's the lead singer and songwriter from the Pogues and in my opinion one of the greatest writers to come out of Ireland. I have to disagree that D. Rice is better. Magowans songs will outlive any of Rices for sure. Fairytale of New York is the most commercial hit of the Pogues so maybe you've heard it but this song is only a small scratch on the surface of Magowans brilliance.
Damien said in a press release posted on eskimofriends that he's moving right on to recording the next record, so maybe he'll put BD Pt. 2 on that one.
oh...thoughts on The Blower's Daughter Part Two...which i didn't know existed, btw...
maybe it's included as a hidden track...there were two of them on O after all...or perhaps it will be a b-side...or it's possible it will be included as an album-only track on iTunes...
the show was incredible... i have a few more (blower's daughter part 2, delicate, volcano, older chests), but i'm going to have to compress the files.. i would've recorded the entire show, but out of respect decided to put my camera away... wish i caught cheers darlin...
I would love, love, love it if you could post Blower's Daughter Part 2 (or e-mail it to me if you don't want to post it). I was so, so happy that he opened with it. Made my night. That concert was honestly one of the most moving experiences of my life. Man is a genius.
THIS MAN IS SO INCREDIBLE!IT´S UNBELIEVEABLE NEVER SAW SOMEONE LIKE HIM!!!!!LOVE DAMIEN!AND BTW HE LOOKS REALLY CUTE THERE:-D LIKE THE SHORT HAIR!

Well, its not on it, unless her has renamed it "elephant", which i doubt. but its plausable:)

Yes, he did rename it "elephant". Like "BD" it's song 3 on album two.
