Damien Rice was born on the outskirts of Dublin in the early 70's and grew up in Celbridge Co. Kildare. He spent much of his childhood down by the River Liffey fishing...hours of catching little left plenty of time for thinking... In March 1999 he moved to Tuscany, then travelled around Europe, busking the streets. He arrived back to Dublin a year later, with a clear head, loaded with idea's, he approached his music with a new found freshness and decided to put some songs down. Borrowing money from those that would lend it, he recorded his demo and sent it off to renowned producer and film composer, david Arnold (Bjork, James Bond). Arnold liked what he heard and provided enough money for Damien to buy his own mobile studio. September 2001 Damien released 'Th More... (Submit New Damien Rice Lyrics) (Submit New Damien Rice Lyrics) What!? | Reviewer: Thom ------ About the song Delicate performed by Damien Rice First things first, this song is not about a woman having a relationship with a pastor, it is not about a guy hurting a girl, how does someone on this forum find hope for her boyfriend and herself listening to this song? It is simply about Damien Rice's ex-girlfriend or ex-wife leaving him period. Go buy his second album and listen to it and the first one will make a lot more sense (at least for me it has). Secondly, I hate to be "that guy" that says to everyone, "what the heck are you all talking about!?" Though unfortunately I have to be. There are many posts about how guys are so terrible blah, blah, blah; we are not all terrible! I have been played by so many girls that I literally felt it was my turn to do the same--I am now going on a three year relationship so I grew out of it. Nonetheless I had a hard time trusting girls for a long time. Girls in general (not all) are so wrapped up in their feminist views (which I support) that they think all guys are out to get them. Here is the thing, if you put yourself in a position to leave your partner that is disrespectful towards your partner, vice versa it is disrespectful towards you. If you take anything with you from this post, if you love someone (unless for certain circumstances, ie you are in an abusive relationship, etc.) do not leave them; don't put yourself in a position to where you can fall for someone else. As a culture we put to much emphasis on the "fuzzy feelings" we get in the beginning of a relationship. That feeling always ends--as most of you know. Love is tough work but you don't need me to type this for anyone to know that. I will end this post on this note, and I am quoting from my first love, "date someone that you see a future with not just a night" plain and simple. Before I start getting hate posts about my comments, please take a deep breathe and re-read this post, reflect upon it, and if you still feel the need to tear me apart by all means do. These are just my opinions and I stick true blue to. damien rice | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Delicate performed by Damien Rice and so it is ...just like you said it would be... i quote damien rice to my best friend..who i have unfortunately fallen for. she is a truely amazing girl...and i got her to listen to this song, in front of me. and she clicked. across the table, she started to cry... are situation is very delicate..i shouldnt like her because we are best friends...but yet i long for her company...i long to smell her smell...to touch her skin....damien rice..you helped me..thank you helpless memories | Reviewer: Kyle ------ About the song Amie performed by Damien Rice i found a girl. i thought she was perfect. my feelings got twisted by those around her. i slowly faded away before i could get hurt - or so i thought. it was the worst mistake of my life. i use to listen to this song with her at night when we were both together. such helpless memories now rest in my dreams. its almost impossible to listen to this song now but whenever it comes on no matter who im with or where i am, those memories and feelings get drowned in my tears. amazing song nonetheless and how powerful these lyrics can strangle your emotions. still... don't let good memories disappear. So Childish bit wildish | Reviewer: Wildishone ------ About the song Childish performed by Damien Rice I love this song! to me a lot of damiens songs are like being in a storm walking the streets or on the ocean (and believe me thats not a bad thing!) and "Woman like a man" is like the feeling you get a clear night on the town in the pubs, with friends risking it or with a guy, Lonelily is like when the sun is rising, volcano is anger at someone for what they did to u, and this song is just the happy childish fun times that we all must have! i dont know if thats what these sobngs make you feel, but thats what i feel1 ... | Reviewer: Brea ------ About the song Accidental Babies performed by Damien Rice So tragic, so painful and so touching... Though I don't really connect it with a situation from my life, still it makes me cry every time when I hear it. Fantastic lyrics, so beautiful, and the way he sings it... ob 1 | Reviewer: 5-htp/cannabis ------ About the song Me, My Yoke And I performed by Damien Rice -=My hand going "understand"=- should be under stand, or at least that would be an interesting perspective on the use of the symbolism of something that 'stands', perhaps physiologically, in the mind, such as an idea/thought. An idea in ones mind, that perhaps he wishes to eliminate the accumulation of biased thought and prejudice built behind it by years of perceived experience on the matter, by going under it. Depressed. | Reviewer: anonymous ------ About the song 9 Crimes performed by Damien Rice This song is so beautiful and there was a time when I was so caught up with it I became depressed. Even though something like that never happened to me. Anyway I love this song. Damien Rice's voice fits it perfectly so does the other girls'. Breathless | Reviewer: G ------ About the song Accidental Babies performed by Damien Rice When I first heard this song, I was left completely breathless ... though being young and not having cheated in my relationships, I can still incredibly connect with this song since it's also a song about longing to have something. And I absolutely agree that this is the most moving song I have ever hears. It's so insanely honest and that's what gets me every time. True poetry! Beautiful :) Perfect | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Grey Room performed by Damien Rice If my last relationship were a song, it would definitely be this song. My Ex sent me this song and it really does fit like a glove to our situation. We are each others safe haven and great loss in life, but our love is untouched even though we've both "moved on". This song reflects that he knows that my life is forever open to him....these lyrics are simply perfect. unplayed piano | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Unplayed Piano performed by Damien Rice such a bittersweet song....damien wrote this song for AUNG SAN SUU KYI who is under house arrest since the 90's for bein a democratic activist! love the collaberation wit damien and lisa truly amazing! gorgeous | Reviewer: rikki ------ About the song Cannonball performed by Damien Rice My long term relationship has just come to an end and this song talks to me so well. I have written it out and am going to play it to her...i cannot come up with such heartfelt lyrics meself. maybe damien rice can save my relationship. Wat a song | Reviewer: Ogwar Stephen ------ About the song Amie performed by Damien Rice The day we broke up with ma gal,I thought it was end of ma life but just then, a pal brought a soft ROCK CD and in it was a song,Amie by Damien Rice. Wheneva i listen to it, it it brings back da memories. Meaning | Reviewer: cris ------ About the song Delicate performed by Damien Rice This song is about a female church member who is having a secret relatinoship with her Pastor. As she watching the Pastor speak and sing in front of the members, she daydreams about the moments when they're alone and the affection they share. She gets brought back to reality when she realizes that whenever she asks him to make the relationship public he dissapoints her by quoting the Bible--their relation and his faith don't mix. But even so, She wonders, why he sings or preaches at all, given she feels his love for her is stronger than his faith. In a last thought of self-assuredness, she wonders, why does he preach at all, then? hmmmmm | Reviewer: Dolg ------ About the song 9 Crimes performed by Damien Rice I actually think this song is not about cheating on someone or being betrayed... I think its about getting into a new relationship, a rebound person in a sense, and still have feelings for the last person you where with. Ithink thats whats meant with "give my gun away when it is loaded" its still loaded with the feelings of the last love... also says things like; "It's the wrong time For somebody new" "It's the wrong time She's pulling me through" So in one sens he is "cheating" on her... by using the other person to pull trough an older relationship and still have feelings for that person fuck | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Elephant performed by Damien Rice i don't know if you're allowed to swear in these wee comment booths .. but fuck . this song makes me cry so hard. all of damien rice's work just depresses me. i absolutely adore his music. it's the way it's meant to be, make you feel. i can't get enough Theory of love | Reviewer: Carolina ------ About the song Delicate performed by Damien Rice I’ve thinking a lot because of this song. Thinking about the men who I had loved so much, about his words, his feelings. He always says love is horrible but, is it? It makes you so vulnerable, that’s truth, and it opens your chest, your heart, and it means someone can get inside you and mess you up, and I accept that too. Actually, you give “that person” a piece of you when didn't ask for it or deserve it. You see, they do something dumb one day like smile at you, or hold you in “that moment”, and then your life isn't your own anymore... Love really takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you sometimes crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like “maybe something is wrong between us” or “I really think this is not working very well” turns you in to horror darkness, breaks your heart. I know sometimes it hurts (not just in the imagination, not just in the mind.) It's a soul-hurt, a body-hurt, a real fucking pain, and that’s why he hates love. But, if I didn't hurt him, I dind't leave him along, why is he thinking love is shit? I can’t understand why he believes that. Why is he so disappointed about this, if I loved him like none in this world and he was one of the most important person in my life? I don’t know, I hope one day he change his mind and looks this from another point of view, just because I loved him, and I want ALL THE BEST for him. It hurtz your soulz | Reviewer: Suntoosh ------ About the song Cannonball performed by Damien Rice Oh my god! I had my first moment of pure happiness to this song. Then I ate a carrot and i knew Damien rice was making so much sense, it's all so intense. He jsut captures everything, like the whole world - yunno, he gets it. I think he's in my mind. Oh god. Wow. Listening to this song is like having Damien Rice in my sad mind. He wants to make me smile. I can feel him. HE is here for all of us. My friend wansts this played at his funeral. I will honor that because I luff him so mcuh. He is my best friend. My only rfiend. it's complicated | Reviewer: andrea ------ About the song Delicate performed by Damien Rice I know what this song really means. It means that someone feels something very strong for that other person who appears to care about her but..just can't make it. Why? because he or she is scared.. maybe because for him everything is just for fun while for her is like the whole world? why is life so hard when we least deserve to suffer? We should give everything, at least take chances.. we won't loose anything, let's try and don't let our only chances to be happy just pass away maybe in front of us.. just because we never tried or thought it would never work or it was just "fun" believe me. if not you will regret so much! SO WHY DON'T WE? =) | Reviewer: Alexandra ------ About the song The Professor & La Fille Danse performed by Damien Rice I love Damien Rice, but when he speaks french he's got such a strong accent that it seems like he's speaking Italian or something XD We don't understand anything. Well, who actually cares ? He doesn't speak french, it's not his fault ^_^. (and it doesn't mean much..) ________________________________________________ J'adore Damien Rice, mais quand il parle français il a tellement un accent anglais, qu'on dirait qu'il parle Italien ou quelque chose ^_^, on comprend rien. Enfin, qui en a réellement quelque chose à foutre ? Il parle pas français, c'est pas de sa faute.. :O (en tout cas c'qu'il dit ne veut pas dire grand chose) Kiss, Alexandra =) my mind reader | Reviewer: mary ------ About the song Elephant performed by Damien Rice oh gosh this song is so amazing and damien really points out how it's like to love something and lose it. it's so hard. it's not so much pain to make you die, but it's enough to make it hard to fully live. but this song makes me feel a little better cuz i know that someone else has felt like this.
