Damien Rice - Fool

[bernie3948]

haya buddy tnxs for the intro .... of Damien

[TheGFBTV]

This song makes me want to learn French so I can understand Jacques Brel.

[nanou6806]

passionne comme Brel le grand Jacques , once again Damien nailed it.

[BiGGraff100]

So...who cheated on who?

[argent2345]

The beginning is a Leonard Cohen and the rest sounds like Jacques Brel

[callatecaro]

@argent2345 Thought the same!

[monika29bluish]

pur şi simplu SUPERB

[studyaholic]

gorgeous picture

[1goduke]

Every time I need the courage to walk away, I come here to this song for the courage.

[nomadicification]

huh. The beginning is exactly the same tune as Famous Blue Raincoat by Leonard Cohen

[caliaa]

@nomadicification That´s because he played it before Fool.

[trinifishstix]

"I'm close to giving up on you" just broke my heart.

Been there suffered that...

[potheed63]

its shit loving someone who can,t keep their legs closed but u can,t leave...ps i can,t leave cause i have a daughter with the cunt

[Flamestar1989]

@potheed63 you can leave and you should. Im saying this from experience. I wish my mum had've left my dad earlier.

[LucyIsntANipple]

I came across this just today when looking up lyrics and.. when it got to, ''And if you're gonna stay

I'll place you high upon a hill

And with my hands

I'll build a tower in your name

And you will do the same

Won't you my love? '' I cried because he won't do the same :/

[darkangelsuzy999]

As a vocalist. amazing it would be to sing with this man

[zerocool200200]

Emotional responses are generated by the amygdala in the brain, Try to control it ladies and gents :) (Medic and Pharmacist)

[cosminsparks]

i always turn to this song when a specific memory comes back. just beautiful and ground breaking.

[baby15gem]

this is so beautiful.

[Nathancosta13]

Tem um toque tri Portenho esse som

[tanorexicstud]

AMAZING, JUST AMAZING



[JuanPabloNorris]

I wonder how many ppl damien have made cry

[HeloiseVL]

Leonard Cohen intro :)

[champagner1234]

@HeloiseVL I just thought the same thing! Famous Blue Raincoat. And Leonard Cohen continues throughout the song. 

[Swanborn]

@champagner1234 Actually, it goes on in "La chanson des vieux amants", by Jacques Brel

[damiensongs]

this is my favorite Damien Song!!

[seedof89]

how many times did damien rice fail in his relationships??

[geeese]

damien rice is my soul.

[DutchKelzz]

Does anyone know when he's gonna start touring again in Europe, preferably Holland! Although I wouldn't mind traveling the world to see him!

[SkateboarderXL]

@DutchKelzz Holland's really filled with Damien Rice fans isn't it ;p (me 2)

[rhaivaen]

@SkateboarderXL Nederland, alsjeblieft zeg, niks Holland. :+)

[SkateboarderXL]

@rhaivaen ik zei ook alleen maar holland omdat hij holland zei ;p (Iedereen weet toch stiekem dat Limburg het beste gedeelte is van Nederland)

[rhaivaen]

@SkateboarderXL Hahahaha, echem, ja toch, dan niet.. hmmz.

Is limburg niet een vaag deel dat eigenlijk bij Belgie hoort? :) En dan nog maar niet beginnen over de legaliteit van Belgie's bestaan, lol. Ik heb persoonlijk "helaas" een hekel aan de term Holland (ondanks dat ik geboren ben in Amsterdam), simpelweg omdat Nederlanders er niets aan doen (of te weinig) om internationaal duidelijk te maken dat ons landje "Koninkrijk der Nederlanden" heet,

[rhaivaen]

@rhaivaen om verder te gaan: en niet Holland, das alleen maar 2 provinciën van het totale rijk. Zeker in de internationale voetbal is dit duidelijk te merken.(Ik heb ook een hekel aan voetbal, lol.)

[diogobh2004]

Damien Rice should release a new CD and include this song in it.

[Ketrin8D]

beautiful song...

[JustMeAgain20]

I love it!!!! And the picture´s beautiful, too. Where is it from?

[manelsl29]

so much beyond repair...

[SoundsUniqueUK]

Incredible, Damien is quite simply the best.

[vincentheron]

Where can I get this song???

[snjoklukka]

it sounds like the melody of LEONARD COHENs 'Famous Blue Raincoat'  in the beginning

[daniyahxx]

YouTube should have a loop button.

[tolteka64]

Wunderschön und berührend, Danke.

[FlowerSpirit343]

It's sooo sad... :((

[SimpleLia]

I LOVE Damien! Amazing!!!! :D

[Heinousness]

whos got tabs to this.

[dearjaneexo]

"I'm close to giving up on you" breaks me.

[TheSDBSickness]

Wait a minute, did anybody notice that Damien's version of Famous Blue Raincoat actually goes into this. The first 30 seconds of this are the last 30 seconds of that. Someone should post them both together.

[cosminsparks]

life is so complicated, sometimes i just wish it was all planed, so that the decisions to forgive and love wouldn't be ours

[TheSDBSickness]

The beginning actually sounds alot like Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat

i can also see the Jacques Brel influence here

Heart wrenching song though. I wish he had a studio version.

[argent2345]

a lot of "ne me quitte pas" by Jaques Brel.

[Ahmaddal]

Great song and singing i like it very much...

[natty71991]

Loving then end :)

[April1442]

Seeing how passionate and beautiful this song is I AM IN DEEP CONFUSION AS TO WHY AT THE END SOME GUY IS LAUGHING... LOL

[ChildishRat]

@April1442 YES!!! why should someone laugh at such a dramatic end?!?

[goobbabe]

@April1442 He was lost in pure musical joy? Just a thought.

[kayujayu]

His voice as a swirl lingers in my mind! How beautiful and delicate....

[redrose567]

 : ( I'm close to giving up on you

[jackmann2000]

i would kill for this man!!!!!

i have all of his music and he is beautiful, wonderful... sad... sexual...innocent...

[LindaHavok]

his voice is so sexy!

[yourloveforvampires]

seroiusly 1 dislike, you joker, its beautiful and thoughtful, love it so much, damien release another album we're all waitin for ur talent again, save us from simon cowells minions

[ChildishRat]

why do i hate loving this song... because it just says what is on my mind?

i don't want to have to give up on you. i fuckin love you. dammit

[SuperDamjano]

wow this performance is so fuckin amazing.......................­he's so cool and talented

[bizmyth]

Whenever I am sad, my dog comes up to my cracked door and whines at me. Well, I am not sad, but she still came to the door when I had this song's volume erupting.

[nickyvanderhut]

reminds me of Leonard Cohen´s _ Leavind green sleaves... also a greeeeaaaat song!

[l4luc]

@nickyvanderhut also reminds me of Leonard Cohen, but I didn't think of the same song. what rings a bell to me is the beginning, which is very similar to Famous Blue Raincoat's one, also a greeat song

[Efakefa]

ehm... maybe it´s just me, but the beginning of the song seems to me very similar to leonard cohen song famous blue raincoat...

[oscarkev190]

@Efakefa I think the start actually is Famous Blue Raincoat. If you search Damien Rice Famous Blue Raincoat you can listen to his version. Then if you play this straight after it seems like one performance which it may have been.

[MyPWNisBlocked]

I feel that Damien Rice is exactly like me, just smarter.

[Melkhadel]

This song is.. this aprticular time in my life... my sotry is just as this song... u_u He is the greatest...

[Spyderschwinky]

he is a legend

[Faldinio]

sounds like the melody to famous blue raincoat by leonard cohen

[CrownedWithLaurels]

@Faldinio Yeah I thought so too!

[sexmusicndrugs]

Wow so intense. I'm in tears. This song is like my ex boyfriend. This is practically what he told me. I wish I didn't go I fucking wish I didn't go.

[yagzz4lyf]

@sexmusicndrugs So you are a cheating bitch?

[sexmusicndrugs]

@yagzz4lyf fuck off mate

[deka136]

@yagzz4lyf lol :D:D:D:D:D

[Lilysnflwr]

@yagzz4lyf What did she say?

[simonnye2]

god . i love this song too much .but i cant find it anywhere too .

[NefeliGkoni]

stop breaking my heart so hard stop stealing my thoughts and making it music...

[strangefamousjuggalo]

Reminds me alot of Ne Me Quitte Pas

[strangefamousjuggalo]

Where can you find this version of the song???? i can't find it anywhere!!

[vincentheron]

@strangefamousjuggalo i cant' find it anywere ethier i don't think was ever relesed on an album

[dallasxsierra]

[83assasin]

[NewJellyBaby]

Woah. Now don't i wish i could write lyrics like that?

[nicoleseiger9]

i love this song but i can't find it to download it! how can i get it?

[dave123wales]

awesome

[LemonPie121]

the lyrics are so powerful. and damien's voice! somehow he manages to give me a certain feeling crawling up my back every single time he sings with emotion.

cheers, vive la france, long live ireland!

[Vexating]

@LemonPie121 In case 'Vive la France' was meant for Jacques Brel: He's Belgian, not French. Just FYI :)

[Lucy666]

This is my favorite song and by far the best version of it that I've ever heard ! Isn't that 'Famous Blue Raincoat' in the intro? Simply amaizing!

[marjotier]

There you go.... I'm in love! :)

[frht454]

@marjotier vulgar?

[marjotier]

@frht454  You got the wrong person! My comment was: "There you go... I'm in love!" Damien is far from vulgar!

[Heinousness]

man.. damien is so vulgar, i love it

[Gabriellebuffy]

@Heinousness vulgar? how?

[largebehind]

I'm constantly finding new Damien songs

[zavas69]
