A lot of people are commenting on his more rugged appearance, but I honestly appreciate it. It’s sort of like a big fu to the music industry’s increasingly high standards of appearance in today’s artists. He looks like how his music sounds, a little scruffy but so full of pent up emotion that it just has to spill out.
I watched him live on 2006, for me personally, the ticket price was expensive, but never regret it. I tell you, he's not only a singer, he's an artist!
It’s in a different key than the original recording, could be a factor why you prefer it (3 halfsteps lower, so a more powerful voice register for Damien).
Love Damian, his writing, his playing, his soul and honest open rawness of emotions he puts in every word, every strum, always gives his audience everything he has.
Some say he is contrived and indeed he is, and they're missing the point. The job of the artist IS to contrive things: themselves, and their creations. Whether that be his choice of brown clothing to conjure as sense of earthiness, the brown guitar, the scraggly loose hair, or the brown shoes; or the lyrics, the way he conjures up images in your mind and emotions in your heart, it is all, indeed, contrived. Because he is creating a vessle for us to project our ideas of what an artist is onto, and thus allows us to "buy in" to the moment he is creating for us. And so, at leats for a little while, we are transported to the world we wish to escape to. Merci, Damien.

It would of been so funny if he done an axl rose when the baby started to cry and smash the guitar of the ground with his hair flipping up with his alchemist jacket while he takes a sip from his remedy bottle while storming off
@@darbybluish to be fair he does look a bit like a homeless person now. I know hes not cause of royalties and albums sales and shit but he has been looking a lot scruffier in the past few years. He's an Extreamly talented Singer-songwriter but his appearence does look a bit worrying
@@KittyCat-xq9ez maybe. Maybe he has decided to let himself go or maybe he doesnt care anymore. I dont really know how and to be honest no one knows except those close to him. Fans can only tell by speculating. hope hes good anyway.
Looking like a pirate sounding like treasure. Gotta love Damien

It's sad, because you know he's fucked up.
fucked up how?
@@dawnriddler what do you mean by fucked up?
@@san.9112 Emotionally, mentally, I think his appearance always reflected his state of mind, when he was content and happy, he didn't look like this.
I love it!

One of the best songwriter ever!
When you sing a song with your eyes closed, that's when it really means something to you
His voice is better now than when he recorded this originally. Just beautiful. What a legend.

He sings the song much deeper live. More relaxed it still sounds amazing ❤
Impossível não amá-lo.
A nice glass of whiskey and Damien rice playing is a great night
damned..damien, loved it
A gem.
Man I love this guy! He is incredible. Would be a dream come true to see him live in the states
Love Damian, his writing, his playing, his soul and honest open rawness of emotions he puts in every word, every strum, always gives his audience everything he has.
Just a dude in a lobby with a guitar. Sounds amazing.
One man and a guitar,, 👏👏
Got to have huge respect for a guy looking like that with a hangover putting on a performance of that quality….
Every time I listen to this, it gets better. Damien nailed it with this one
Wish I could catch him in a live performance some day
Wish to be this fortunate too, someday
Sedetevi.......un pensiero delicato per chi ti ascolta.....sensibile e bravo ... complimenti Damien

He's shabby like a homelss man. Beautiful song.

best homeless song writer
Looking like the devil sounding like Lucifer. Gotta wanna be like Rice.

Lol
Excuse me miss, what were you doing walking around with all that 😳
쌀형ㅠㅠ
Secretly praying "Come to Singapore. Come to Singapore. Come to Singapore. Come to Singapore. "
He came for two consecutive years during 2015 and 2016.. but no more :(
i literally went to his show at Star Theater.
You should write the song name man...
Cannonball
At 2:42 a cough can be heard. Rumor has it this is where Covid-19 first began.
The deliberate scruffy look doesn't wash with me or the washing machine.
He's like van gogh but with music
I worry about him.
Little Beau Poop The Wonder Dog **IMPEACH TRUMP** why?

James Treacy maybe still upset about Lisa H
@@jamestreacy1 Damien's just being true to himself
@@KittyCat-xq9ez maybe. Maybe he has decided to let himself go or maybe he doesnt care anymore. I dont really know how and to be honest no one knows except those close to him. Fans can only tell by speculating. hope hes good anyway.
He's is my favourite guitar player/singer. But he looks like manson without the tatts. no offense , i appreciate wwhat he did here
Not water!!!
Why would he play his own song incorrectly? It’s not in the original key.
Ever have a sore throat bud?
Different key =/= incorrectly
he felt like it? it's his song after all, he can play it however he wants to XD
He says in the vid that they had a party the previous night and he had to drop it a couple of keys.
What do you mean incorrectly…
You watched the video incorrectly…
never liked his voice
Then go away
WTH you doin here?
