  • I kissed his lips! True, have the pics! Luv u Damian! Great Artist! xxxxx

  • love it. this song means a lot to me

  • This Song kills me everytime....Fantastic.......

  • Strange. Its only when that comment that I've left has reached double numbers of thanks that negative replies begin. That tells me a lot about the repliers. Boys, not men. Thinking they're hard but not knowing the half of it. Shadows of men.

    Look, little boys, anyone who listens to Dempsey and understands can see a raw exposure beneath a hard exterior That's what makes Dempsey interesting. Your neg comments say a lot about your self-doubt & concerns over your sexuality. Come out if you need to

  • HOWLD ME

  • Jesus this is good

  • anrirura u talk fuckung crap

  • @sydbarret1973 U probably suck it though ;-)

  • "This guys sounds like he just got off the boat..." --My sister xDD

  • Comment removed

  • @erincross94 Sorry, I meant to say reduced to rubble by the thing you love, so whatever floats your boat 'Erin', be it guys, animals, inanimate objects or dead bodies. I forget that not everyone's a grounded individual.

    Isn't "oul" pretentious, ya plastic Paddy Oirish boy, Erin (WTF is Erin, you mean Eireann ?)

  • Sooooooooooooo tender, sensual, and powerful!!

    BRAVO!!

  • a wanker if ever there was one after his stupid comment re Shane MacGowan at the tall ships concert in waterford 2011. sharon shannon must have been mortified to hear this pricks negative comments about shane. Christy Moore said, 'people will be singing shane macgowan's songs in a hundred years time'... who will remember this upstart (Dempsey) who thinks he has something to say...Everyone around me at that gig had the same opinion of you in waterford, you inner-city scumbag

  • @thumbtack40 What did Dempsey say at the Tall Ships about MacGowan?

  • @geckos76 yes,i too would love to know,its not nice to call him a scumbag,but i have a huge amount of respect for shane,and wouldnt hear a bad word said about him either. was in waterford that day,but i left before the music started.

  • Girl I've been hurt in the past, cut up I find it hard to bring down my guard. Hold me, closely, and softly sweetly kiss my lips, my lips Oh baby baby baby, hold me closely, and softly sweetly kiss your lips, your lips. It's been so long since I heard that song, It always does remind me of us. Hold me, closely, and softly sweetly kiss my lips, my lips Oh baby baby baby, hold me closely, and softly sweetly kiss your lips, your lips. The last time that I saw you, I shouted and I fought you,
  • Damien Dempsey is a true legend in his own right what a song!!!!!

  • Up the Dubs Damo!!!

  • Thank you Cormac.X

  • sweet

  • u know he's talented wen he sings songs like colony and choctaw nation about real irish history and world history and he can also pull a song out of the bag as nice as this..good on ya damo..much love from the hole COLONY :)

  • nice 1 love colony two

  • Wrote from the core of you're soul,sang from you're heart,a timeless melody !!

  • Damien Dempsey has the warrior mindset. Gentle when stroked, wicked when provoked, like an Irish Wolfhound. This song is a testament to the strength of man being reduced to rubble by a good woman and childhood banishment. A man goes from childhood to manhood with very few hugs. Serves to create Michael Collins, Ernie O'Malley and countless other warriors. But also damaged goods. All of us men are, by our contradictory impulses, damaged goods. Dempsey lets some light in here.

  • @Anrirua well put man good job

  • @Anrirua Fair play man,u summed that up niceley,i guess thats what makes the world go round though,we are not girls!

  • @Anrirua wise words indeed. i'm interested by the way some of my "dub" friends cant stand him, and I, a Derry man, love him. For me, he gives voice to the disenfranchised.

  • @Anrirua Jesus wept, what a load of cobblers!

  • @marckellyv1 AskMyArse, Mark with a gay c, ask my my arse sunshine ;-)

  • @Anrirua Ask my my arse? What's with the my my you clown :)I refuse to argue with someone who is intellectually challenged like you clearly are.. Now piss off

  • @marckellyv1 I refuse to argue with a "Marc":- you sound like a hairdresser, sunshine. I'd piss off alright, in your face, except I'd say you might like it. p.s. both your grammar and punctuation leave a lot to be desired; much worse than my minor typo. God help you. Maybe version2 will be better than v1 and be called a man's name like Mark.

    p.s. Don't forget that you refused to argue, so run along Morc........

  • damo, pure class

  • My baby calls this the"Go to sleep song"... :) thanks for posting another great one by Damo!

  • just wondering does anyone know when his new album is out

  • great song from damo a true Dub and soul rebel

  • what a wordmaster !!!!

  • @ianbrennan13 yeah, 'the poor have more taste than the rich'. shakespeare couldn't have said it better.

  • atrueirishman is noting but a scag i met damo and he is the soundest man out there es down to earth and makes his fans feel like an equel to him self amazing man

  • @TheDrloveandkiss ANY good song he does are the ones where he doesn't delve into terrorism - 'your pretty smile', 'the apple of my eye', 'industrial school', 'Factories', 'it's all good', etc. Pity he can quit supporting HAMAS against the decent people of Israel. It's none of his business anyway. He should stick to what he knows.

  • @atrueirishman What are you talking about HAMAS have been democractically elected byt the people of Palestinian, you cant call for democracy and then when it goes against you continue to call their elected representatives terrorists.

  • @liams18 so what?? Hitler was democratically elected by the German people. You agree with what he did too, I suppose.

  • @atrueirishman Ah yes this fallacy, Hitler never had more than 37 percent of the popular vote in the honest elections that occurred before he became Chancellor, therefore Hitler would have never seen the light of day had the German Republic been truly democratic. Better check your cliches before you use them as facts.

  • @liams18

    One doesn't always need 50% of the vote to be democratically elected. How many times did Tony Blair's Labour party receive less than 50%of the popular vote, (different from winning 50% of the seats in parliament) but still form the legitimate UK government?

  • Comment removed

  • @atrueirishman wat a totall wankstain you are

  • Legend

  • chap is a legend come to NZ next

  • crusty IRA and HAMAS supporting scumbag. I was a big fan til he stuck his big donamede head into middle east politics.

  • @atrueirishman the cheek to call yourself a true irish man you aint nothing but a dirty tosser

  • @mcanner25 - well said

  • @mcanner25 cant believe that cunt man

  • @bmcg8888 ah true irishman more like a true fudge packer

  • @atrueirishman - fháil ar ais chuig Sasana

  • shut up ya ignorant bollix

  • All this song needs is a little re-mixing and it would be a masive hit.

  • wish he was coming to america. i would love to see him live!

  • Took an Ex to Damo at the National Con Hall a two years ago, this was her favourite song, sadly it reminds me of us,as Damo said, life eh................

  • HOLD MEEEEEEEEEEE CLOSEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYY­YY, SOFTELYYYYYY SWEETLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY­YYYYYYYYYYY

  • @kai696 KISSSSSSS MMMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY LLLLLLLLLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPP­PPPPPPPPPPS

  • brilliant man. had the pleasure of meetin him after gig in culdaff donegal. honest and humble man,think me wife is a bit 2much in2 him tho!!!!!! honestly this man shud b world famous!!!!!

  • Girl I've been hurt in the past, cut up I find it hard to bring down my guard. Hold me, closely, and softly sweetly kiss my lips, my lips Oh baby baby baby, hold me closely, and softly sweetly kiss your lips, your lips. It's been so long since I heard that song, It always does remind me of us. The last time that I saw you, I shouted and I fought you, That awful night we parted, Was when this nightmare started. But now tonight I see you, And jesus how I miss you.

    SPIRITUAL ONE MIGHT SAY ;-)

  • Seen Damo a fair few times live. Love the charity efforts, pity more artists weren't as kind. Bono makes a stab at it. But I think it's all egotistical and band profile.

    If you haven't Damo live, you are missing out.

  • Damien Dempsey live full band for Charity gig HELIUM 2010 only €25 incl. Camping, Damo and ten other acts over 2 stages, Hog roast and bbq plus lots more Ballymahon Longford 31st July. tickets and info at w w w. helium2010 . c o m and w w w. tickets. i e

  • He did himself proud in cyprus avenue in cork last night. Passionate and proud. Thank you
