  • Real Music, This is live. The ones in studios are fake. Thats why they sound horrible In Live concerts usualy.

  • hauntingly beautiful

  • and i introduce to you... music!

  • Pecka!

  • hauntingly beautiful

    

  • Listening to this song is better than sex!

  • i cried

  • lol My iphone heard this song from one movie.. it brought me here..

  • this is the best thing iv ever seen

  • Something forced me to hit the Favorite button at 6:28

  • Thé end is fucked uo

  • 0o

  • Don't think I could be with a girl that didn't like this song.

    

  • one of the purest songs ever written. simple chords simple vocal. but the harmony is sublime, as is the depth of the lyric. I dont like the bit where it goes bananas, it was kind of building up to something that deserved to be beutiful but ends up being more a representation of pain. still pretty cool though. give lady gaga a guitar and see if she could come up with this (she would prolly try and wear the guitar rather than play it!)

  • kind of reminds me of a dark graveyard...suppose thats the way it was written. brill

  • Viv is beautiful, isn´t she? 

  • @ludusa yes, she is beautiful i agree.

  • pure magic.

  • If this was dubstep... damian rice would be in jail for rape

  • @JustDefyOfficial dubstep FUCKING SUCKS

  • @sTapleEVA Its not that bad man. Some of its good . But thats coming from a guy that listens to all types of music everything from old school rap to opera to dubstep. Musics my Life .

  • Cómo alguien con música puede desenredar los nudos problemáticos de mi cabeza? inspirarme para escribir? eres hermoso Damien tu y lo que haces.

  • one of the only singers who makes me cry, he really sings with feelings and not only with his voice

  • Magnifique chanson... on se laisse emporter....

  • Are they saying Nam Myoho Renge Kyo? very fast at the end?

  • @Karloffrules Yes :) Nam myoho renge kyo. Wonderful!

  • @Karloffrules I was wondering what the heck that was...thinking I needed to find a way to play the song backward lol... I never noticed it until listening this time. weird.

  • So...the song is about baptism. If any musical instrument can convey rebirth, for me, it is the cello...gratitude for the upload.

  • Please, am I reading this correctly...98 dislikes...why!?!

    This breaks my heart.

    Damien & Lisa are both beautiful human beings and this performance is perfection.

  • so beautiful !!! I love the vocal performances !

  • I think this song perfectly portrays what heartbreak feels like...

  • how often does that heart break?

  • Can't believe some people here don't like the ending. I thought that part was epic. Must be incredible to watch live.

  • Yooooo

  • This scares the fuck outta me... But I did enjoy it...

  • without words

  • i love this song:)

  • Who is that girl singing? Amazing. Very good song

  • @1972okidoki lisa hannigan

  • Comment removed

  • @1972okidoki Lisa Hannigan. You should check out her solo stuff, she has a youtube channel.

  • Musical perfection

  • its simply AMAZING!

  • they sing with the heart, not with the voice

  • Their voices just have sex :P

  • @damosoawesome more like soul piercing beauty. brittny spears has "sex" in her voice. from puking up cum when she sings

  • the sound of a chorus of cows dying as humans chant sacrificial rituals with their mouths half in cold water. my ears explode.

  • @winggoddess I may have a small crush on you after that sentence

  • @MrBrianojee haha!

  • who invented this style for women where they wear a longer shirt under a shorter shirt?

  • I loved the final part

  • yeah i didn't like that part towards the end. too weird bro.

  • @paige3406 well, call it arts.

  • what the fuck was that at the end

  • wow

  • I put this song in my ipod under "Beautiful Songs That Humanely Refine People" playlist. :')

  • Lord, can you hear me now? Goddd, that gave me such an emotional punch...

  • he is incredible in concert

  • I remember watching a live performance of this on TV and thought it was the most perfect thing I had heard. Great vocals, incredible cellist and drums...just perfect!

  • woW... O.o didn't c that coming, beautiful song

  • one of my favourites next to amie, and that ending is just mind blowing!!

  • Brillant song and the end is very intense !!!

  • This song played at the end of the movie "I am David" actually brought me to tears.

  • Nam myo ho ren ge kyo

  • puta que es deprimente pero amo a damien su voz sus canciones todo

  • i randomly wrote "cold water" cuz i was thirsty :P

  • There is so much going on during this performance so much layers a lesser artist would screw it up but Damien and Lisa execute it perfectly.

    and that last 2 minutes.... My mind is seriously blown!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I'm the 4445 person of liking this!!!

  • While I know this song was written by Damien, it wouldn't be what it is without Lisa Hannigan. That woman is pure beauty and has a voice of an angel.

  • the best! lovely <3

  • Oh shit I didn't know that chant was suppose to be in it. I thought it was my speakers breaking up..

  • i wonder if you have to go to europe to see him fucking tear up a stage like that. i saw him in san diego a while back and it wasn't anything like this video.

  • I'm always listening this music and i love it

  • his songs actually bring a tear to my eye. bless him.. that's raw emotion.

  • is there any person who knows story of this song?

  • Comment removed

  • is there any person who knows episode of this song?

  • i miss damien and lisa

  • Wow. Realmente DAMIEN RICE sabe cómo llegar al corazón de las personas, acá claramente se ve, se siente, se sonríe cada vez que se lo ve. Es hermoso este tema, llega de una manera, un trance entre él y uno mismo.

  • middle finger up if you listening to this in 2134

  • thumbs up if you hate people who say thumbs up in a comment and if you appreciate the irony...

  • Comment removed

  • 94 people have never bathed in cold water.

  • This made me tear up.

  • Lmfao! wtf is that @ 5:36 ?

  • They are LOVE.

  • a volte trovare delle parole è difficile... a dir poco superlativo...

    sometimes hard to find words ... nothing short of superb ...

    parfois cest difficile de trouver les mots ... rien de moins que superbe ...

  • simplismente emocionante :D adoro demais

  • *Face Palm

  • Great song,intrumental and voices.Love this couple of music genius.Hope they came to Oporto soon.

  • Comment removed

  • so beautiful this song

    

  • I love Damien Rice, but I started busted out laughing at ~5:36. Sorry, but that effect was so obnoxious and overbearing that it was hilarious to me.

  • @gregarious24 sorry dude... but that "obnoxious effect" is actually a mantra: nam myoho renge kyo.

  • @SuperPelonete No, the "obnoxious effect" was the vocal modulator or whatever he was using while reciting the mantra. He did the same thing on his Abbey Road performance of Volcano and it too was completely overbearing and obnoxious.

  • I feel so calm now.

  • All as it should be.

  • I searched cold water cuz its hot as fuck outside

  • love the song but whats with the yoggitty yoyo.. not really feeling that

  • The only thing that sucks about this song, is the fact that it ends.

    You get yourself so far away, lost in each and every note, in each small detail that created this perfection, never wanting to return to reality ever again.

  • 91 people don't know, what's real music.

    Thumbs up, if you're one of the others ;)

  • @6:27 That emotion just ripps right through you and deep into the gut. No wonder he has a name like Damien

  • BEST VERSION. 

  • sry, but the end of the song sounds shit.....

  • am I lost?

  • Lisa Hannigan is so beutiful

  • Tears.

  • My ears came.

  • @kian1101 mine too. lots of times

  • This is so fucking perfect...

  • @astroripper Indeed. This is very INTENSE! At the end, it looks like even the Cello player seemed a bit exhausted.

  • @durrttysheek Still is pretty amazing :)

  • heard this song on I am david.. i dont know why i didnt search for this song years ago when i saw the movie. glad i found it. love it soo much.. this man is genius. THIS is music

  • sends chills down my spine

  • is he playing his bass with a bow?

  • @iwannacapo Indeed. I recorded a Christmas album & did the same on a cover of Away in the Manger. Kinda ripped it off from this video, haha.

  • @felixramsey it would be neat to make a bass with a string radius like a cello but not quite so extreme. so you could play it either way. then have the strap on a pivot so you could lift it up and play celloish sounding bass then go back to just fingerpicking... hmn

  • Damien Rice rocks always!!!!

  • Wow!

    

  • 89 people like warm water

  • 89 people do not have a soul

  • μ'ακους????

  • If you like Cold Water, you probably also like water! Search RBC Blue Water Project’s Facebook page and “like” the page. For every “like”, RBC will contribute $1 towards preserving clean water around the world! Spread the word and rock on for Mother Earth!

  • Koreas got talent bought me here! Sung Bong Choi's haunting life story and this tune.... just goes hand in hand.

  • from around 6:20 minute till the end I truly start to have shivers down my neck, and it almost bring tear to my eye. I love this ending of the song. First it's calm and acoustic- then- the bomb of sound, percussion, some rough/ restless distortion. so great performance. Beyond words. this is music.

  • Comment removed

  • Haha i didn't write that it was nycollas on my account :/ x

  • This is not my type, nd i have no idea why... but i LovE it.

  • thumbs up if you knew Damien in 2002

  • sweetest song what i ever seen <3

  • Funny how the live version sometimes is a lot better than the official video. Such a great version of this fantastic song...

  • This reminds me the time i fell asleep in the bath lol.

  • as awful and senseless it may seem at first, i can't help but think of two things when i hear this.

    1. The film I Am David

    2. Japan.....

    :'(

    this song speaks pure beauty.

  • Rediscovered!!!! AAAAHHHH love it!!!

  • Goosebumps are an understatement right now. What it would be like to know that your music gives people goosebumps. Must be an awesome feeling.

  • this song is so relevant ,just wish we would call on God during good times,be thankful and not just in times of despair.......where you can say thankyou God i have all this and your hand.

  • Une très belle chanson qui nous donne toujours un effet un peu mélancolique dans"Les Petits Mouchoirs"

  • those guys in the end blabbering like crazy monks totally ruin the melody of the song -_-

  • damn... Lord, can you hear me now!!!??

  • When I was really depress this song literally saves my life!

  • Comment removed

  • the person that introduce me Damian Rice will always be in my heart <3

  • even my goosebumps had goosebumps for the end, bloody marvelous.

  • God I want to cry! Wonderful song! Another of the few ways to go in heaven!!!

  • i guess this song is the background music of the movie"I'm David"

    pretty nice movie + awesome song

  • I think i died listening to this :S

  • Thumbs up if your listening to this in 2011

  • @TIMSY47 I'll be fucking listening this my entire life...cuz it's worth it!!

  • @MissThePossimpible I had to look this one up as I didn't know what it was about - sorry my daughter posted a comment thinking she was logged on and it came up as mine (top comment though - that's a first) I've just realised I'm about to do the same as it's her logon - so I will.

  • @Cyd135 ok ok....thanks for letting me know..no worries..and this song is amazing huh...(i feel bad about using the f word though...damn,u should have left your daughter read that reply tooo!!!)anyway...

  • @TIMSY47 Why shouldn't we listen to it in 2011?!?!?!?

  • @mpiskotos I haven't a clue. I must stop my kids using my computer.

  • @TIMSY47 Thumbs up if you think thats the stupidest fucking thing to thumbs up.

  • @TIMSY47 thumbs up if you think that kind of comments "thumbs up if u're listening to this in 2011" are ridiculous now

  • wow... so intense... speechless
