Damien Rice - Cannonball

[akittypie]

James Blunt and Damien Rice are both really good. Like them very much! They have a wonderful voice and always sing emotionally and beautifully . But, Rice has the skill for creating lyrics that are deep and moving. I adore his music and think he is very talented. The greatest thing about his lyrics is that ppl can interprete them in many ways, making it recognisable for almost anyone. Omg he is amazing!!!!

[sglp9000]

I love this song, But it feels a little rushed. has anyone seen the version of this with just damien and another guy on guitar? I feel like that one really displayed the emotion in this song. But in this one's defense, the Cello makes it so much better. Loving your music, Damien.

[bigdaddy2493]

there is so much emotion in all his songs and its amazing that he can get that across to the audience

[anton1234564]

@xeegen because people have different tastes in music and this song had a lot of soul to it so people who like soul will like this track

[XeeGen]

I will never understand why people like this track so much :(

[jondevers]

Cat Stevens circa 2007 :-)

[sspbilbo]

its wonderful

[deeto84]

im goin through a ridiculously tough heartbreak...and when i listen to damien it just keeps me goin..regardless of the meaning of his songs..just his voice brings me happiness...and omg i would marry lisa hannigan in an instant..i would say "i do" before i even met her...so damn beautiful.

[link244]

This song makes me to think in an illusion about some one i could love :D

[RieteDeLaNoche]

@link244 i feel it too

[ska2808]

Which came first; the Blunt or the Rice?

[gadrockduke]

@ska2808 Damien came waaaaaay before james blunt ever got recognition. Damien released O about 7 or 8 years ago.

[rikischy27]

@ska2808

Blunt but Rice is a million miles ahead of Blunt. Rice is a genius. He has a feeling that not many people on the world have.

[PeptoPants]

3 people were watching this upside down .__.

[mickyg28392]

3 dislikes???!!! how is that possible?!

[romeozheng]

this song reminds me of memories.

[June0930]

cello and guitar..... ah, the best combination!!

[MrDevil0910]

@June0930

In my opinion, nobody first of Rice has thought this combination! A "classic" strument with another more "popular"!

[Artyfartyify]

@MrDevil0910 it had been done

just never to this level

it was originally just an add-on, but he made it a staple part of his band

[venshoje]

Esta musica tem muito sentimento...as palavras...tudo...

[ToModestoA]

It is nearly unbelievable how he can put so much into one song!

One of the best lyrics I have ever seen.

This work is timeless!

[nanovianna]

that is such an intense song.. haven't heard such beauty in many years... damien rice truly knows how to flourish emotions into people's hearts

[macgiver351]

one his most underated songs i think

[o0oKatIsSleepyo0o]

got this song from the spring waltz drama n i was in love with it after i heard it...really great song...^_^

[brandonsadi]

Damien Rice is a little bit of heaven on earth

[fritzpowell1968]

[6igmama]

Sometimes music like Damien's are one of the things that keeps you going.

[afansi]

@6igmama

That's exactly right

[Lightbulb258]

He is RIDICOLUSLY AMAZING!!!!! =]

[sugarfreek81]

[Arr0w]

check ray lamontagne to

[andrea3485]

where is the versin in black and white where damien is with a girl in a recordig room????

[gypsy1324]

think i know which one you mean, but sad to say i think it got taken off. :(

[jamesconlon88]

Try searching for the "aol session", I think that's the one you mean.

[brianshinsaccount]

there's him in the aol sessions but i don;t htink he played cannonball

[atomist21]

that would be the AOL studio session thing. i dont think i ever seen that version of this song D:

[WippiehWillow]

[Freewilly789]

There is still a little bit of your taste in my mouth. IS THAT HOT OR WHAT!!?!?!! JEEESSS!

[garbetroska]

[RidgeRPG]

Saigalexdor93 where you drunk when you rote that? xD

[Freewilly789]

[MikeDaniels3951]

What a man!...

[Leonie2192]

Amazing Song :)

[saigalnextdor93]

nyc song!

i really lab it.

[carbondeloriente]

Amo a damien rice, todos sus temas son compocisiones perfectas, la musicalización... te llega muy hondo

[iheartf]

love him :))))))))))

[alhamer01]

Damien rice is fabulous

[LloydinMelbourne]

didoma you fucking elitist "I find refuge in more of his "B" sides". My god. Really do you know how you sound right now?

[MattyTheMug1]

You are going to struggle to find anyone that emits this much passion and emotion when they sing. Just brilliant

[Angelicusdiodorix]

and still this song brings tears to the eye, melancholie to the mind and peace to the spirits...

why is this song not populair as quoted below? it is in my top 5, right under Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah (Cohen cover) and I think it is wrong to deem that it is not populair because of the few comments posted.

so come on damien, teach me how to show

that its not hard to fail, if you walk in a genious' shadow...

Respect to my main Irish dude!

[didoma73]

have you any idea what you're talking about..quite on the contrary, ppl have butchered cannonball, 9 crimes, blowers on here so much that i quite honestly dont dare clik these tracks anymore...instead, i find refuge in more of his b-sides and unreleased material, which, to me, is even better than his singles..

[dwnbowden]

How about you let people listen to what they want while you shut the fuck up.

[toooldtoremember]

ALL of his videos were well viewed about 2 years, then vanished because Youtube (those bastards!) removed then for about 8 months, before being reintroduced.

[abutita]

No words for Damien... He is just brilliant. He is not as "happy" as a musician is supoused to be, he is jus t he, with his perfect guitar and his lyrics.

Lo siento pero me salen las emociones en castellano, que para algo soy andaluza... Es sencillamente GENIAL... Con su voz tan dulce que susurra en vez de cantar y sus letras rotas y cargadas de significado.

POR QUE NO VIENE A ESPAÑA!!!!????!?!!? :(

DAMIEN; YOU SHOULD COME TO SPAIN..!!!

Beso grande

[ddeny22]

I'm suprised, this seems to be the least popular song of his.

[aaronjl07]

you dont know what your talking about

[didoma73]

fucking brilliant
