THE BLOWERS DAUGHTER - DAMIEN RICE, LYRICS. CLOSER

[giovanasamara]

IMPOV, this song is about someone who chose to (or had to) give up on a turbulent/complicated relationship, for the sake of all involved. Life is easier now, simpler, but the magic's gone, the passion's gone. And it's hard to remember all that happened before, the whirlwind of feelings experienced before, compared to the stillness of this new life...

[SIMONDUKEN]

I love her man i love her so much!!!!!!! :'/

[TomPlanetVideos]

I cant take my eyes of you...really...no lie <3

[Elenilou1]

:(

[demitaras]

@Elenilou1 γιατι λυπημενη φατσα????

[SkollyAndTheThieves]

i dance to this song :'D

[xxxKATE2293xxx]

why are all the comments Damien Rice songs full of self-pity?

[MsExLibirs]

I've always wanted my first wedding dance song to be this :)

So lovely.

[hinasakukimi]

@MsExLibirs Why? It's so sad :(

[MsExLibirs]

@hinasakukimi I never really thought that. I always thought it was about a guy who couldn't stop looking a a woman because he was so in love with her. Hopefully, when I get married, that will also be the story.

[hinasakukimi]

@MsExLibirs I guess it means different things to different people, whatever it is it's still an absolutely beautiful song and it'll be lovely for a wedding if it's about love to you :D

[Plissken34]

This song is the story,between me and a special someone i told her that i loved her but she rejected me... I've never been so depressed in my life :(

[AdelsonFagundes]

@Plissken34 We are on the same boat... :(

[guifermar]

Try the brazillian live version from Carolina & seu Jorge. Not better, just different and still amazing.... Really, type in ...e isso ai

[Charmaholic1392]

simply beautiful....

[sarayya20]

[lestat08fem]

i absolutely like this!

[TheChloeskyeshow]

its propper sad x x x x he is so amazin he has the power to make ya cry xx x x a truly great singer then they are people like wil.i.am and stuff that cant even sing :( so sad

[macmartinez2]

[cestrc]

its so true

[SasukeUchiihaa1]

sad D':

[MortalKombat773]

I don't like the ending -.-

[Skateism2343]

Five people could take their eye's off of you.

[Nikanaiko]

I hate this song most of the time, but when I'm suffering from unrequited feelings, it kinda hits me deep down and I have listen to it.

[alexsandro1066]

linda musica :)

[Milagros048]

hey! just get away and forget about everything. it doesn't matter. i hope you read it before u leave

[MetalerAnne]

this song hurts so much, you can't turn it off.

reminds me of my ex- boyfriend, the love of my life, who broke up and ensured me i'd forget, because he would, too.Can't take my mind of you.... Til YOU find someone new

[beeeeeey]

when the female voice comes in, it hits me pretty bad.

[hinasakukimi]

For some reason I get really emotional near the end of the song, when he goes 'My mind... My mind... Till I find somebody new...' that bit makes me tear up. I can't put into words how much I love this song, I was very surprised to find that this was sung for a movie called Closer, and I have to say this song suits it. :)

[TheNanne09]

And so it is... I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

[perpoleper]

hmmm i kinda like anthony neely's offical cover better...

[taashburton]

Travis Walls Solo. <3

[sudhan16502]

fuck it...why am thinking of that girl who never cares about me...want to stop this song but....

[musicfanatic012]

this song is so pure.

so beautiful

[CONSOLITA1]

JAVI PUERMA......siempre en mi

[Ollielollylanny]

This is beautifully done - no dodgy background just splain and simple - love it!

[rattersching1990]

And know I realize the differences between Love and just being in Love... If Love someone is in love with somone else...both have to do something for this love...my eyes lie on me, but not my heart...my mind...i just wanna understand that he is thinkin...cause my power isn´t high enough for both of us ...i just wanna take my mind out of him ....

[createurway]

does she sing 'love' or 'loath' ????????????

[esekerrr]

till i find someone else....jajajajajaja

[191seb]

in gedanken an das letzte jahr und anja ;-)

[Carmen12690]

I love it him and i cant take my eyes of him </3

[Eoinposse]

I love this song, it's beautiful.

[gillybabe27]

Miss you so much...still. Everyday when i open my eyes, it's you I think of, you i yearn to be with. But you are no good for me, don't protect me from the evils of this world and give me the things i need, they were never material things, just the love and respect I neded....doesn't stop it hurting or wanting you in my life any less. Just want you to want me, any I ain;t chasing anymore, cos you were clearly never mine. This song, and memories of us together will never fade.

[mechroboticon]

It's about wanting someone you can't have. Rice was in love with his clarinet teacher's daughter, who was too young for him. This song is about the process of choosing "the shorter story" --that is, letting go of the dreams of being with her and choosing life as it is: bearable, somewhat OK, but sometimes so difficult to pretend that you can be happy enough without her.

It's about longing.

[Coy0te007]

Dedicated you my sweety! I am in love with you my sunshine!!Always yours!

[Micky83]

Beautiful song,love it

[elliemayx333]

such a beautiful song <3

[art5041]

[MissMarigold01]

[weristeigentlichjule]

es treibt mir immer tränen in die augen... 

[LETMEBEANNi]

wunderschönes lied *____* ♥

[TheBeccaBambi1996]

I think it's a sad song,isn't it? XD

[TheBeccaBambi1996]

so awesome *-*

but is it a sad song or a lovesong?I don't really understand :D

[jazzaces294]

If Damiel Rice and Glen Hansard did a song together it would be incredible

[jesses130]

It breaks my heart when he sings, "I can't take my eyes off of you." And I'm usually not one for sentimentality.

[dacdancer1]

has anyone heard the version of this that sounds like adel??? what is it called???

[natalialpa]

what blowers daughter mean????

[cliffdivingteam]

@ellybelly500 don't be so rascist. Youtube is for everyone so there will be comments from other countries you absolute douche bag :)

[boneji]

this song cheers me up.

[MandyTheKiller]

@boneji Seriously? xD Its music is kind of depressing, if you ask me, but who am I to bitch? :P

[araxwva]

it remind's me o lot.it's just amazing song 

[alfamale5955]

This is by far the most amazing and beautiful song I've heard. I cry everytime. Reminds me of when i first laid eyes on my girl!

[MrsBlitzkrieg]

Yeah, I read an interview with Damien Rice and it said that the girl has the daughter of his clarinet teacher and thus, the pupil was himself. The pupil in denial it mean he doesn't want to admit they're over. Denial doest not mean he cannot lie.

[Teynee]

This song makes me cry so much!

[jocelynlemons]

I thought the pupil meant the guy cuz this is about a guy that liked the daughter of his clarinet teacher? thats what i read

[TheLP17]

Touching Song !

[Tania87691]

MUY BUENA ROLA!!!

[TheDas1991]

@gimnasioegkwmis

[gimnasioegkwmis]

[louiscarr899]

[kvds08]

Beautiful! my heart is crying...!

[dzusty]

i love this one, beautiful <3

[dogruns]

still the best love song for me.

[PunkMartyr]

I love the playlist feature on youtube.. so good..

[alcercuee]

what does it mean when it says..."the pupil in denial" ??

[kkastoopy99]

@alcercuee pupil=eyes

denial= you dont want to see lol

[filoobidoo]

a pupil is a student, if that helps

[drinistwasgutist]

May he lears to "denial" (donno if this is correct. i'm not english ;D)

[tiewebb]

@alcercuee

it means the eye does not lie

[ConstableJoker]

@tiewebb

No it means his pupil is denying that they're over so it can't get off of her, i.e. "I can't take my eyes off you

[tiewebb]

@ConstableJoker

No,the pupil is in denial,as it cannot lie,as i said.

[vivekaki4ever]

I can't take my eyes off you........the best movie and song........that's why I learnt the lyrics...........8elo na to afieroso sthn agapoula m......kostadine gia sena......3ero oti einai to agaphmeno s tragoudi........
