*_I met Damien one time in a rehab center called Coolmine Lodge a lifetime ago. He was amazingly humble with us all & maybe someone knew him, I don't remember. This was about 2000-ish. Thankfully I had no criminal record & the rehab centers in Ireland are either provided by the Church or in the case of Coolmine, a private entity I think, so I had no record of being in a drug treatment center, therefore no problem getting my green card to come & live in the U.S. I spent 2 years in South Boston where I met a girl whose grandparents came from Dublin & I then moved to Oklahoma where I now own a nice 30-acre ranch with 360-acres of woods surrounding our ranch. Cherokee County is amazing. I have 8 kids also & my wife & I were Blessed to find an old Benedictine abbey nearby so sometimes I get 5am Mass before going on a predawn hunt. Most of my family still live in Dublin. Tnx for dropping in on us Damien. I also know Christy Dignam from Aslan really well i went to school with his little bro, Eddie & they live on my granny road in Finglas. His sister lives at the back of my ma & das in Finglas. Another great dude who would put my name on the guestlist whenever I called him up. [P.S. I Defo am not saying I know or knew Damien. He visited the small place where about 13 of us were housed.]_*
Seen the man around 10 times. Unbelievable. The most important man of our times to aid in lifting the spirits of Irish young men. Big influence on me learning some instruments. Warrior poet, Druid, hero
He’s an absolute genius, remember putting this on for my brother in law who was a massive music fan, totally blew him away, why have I never heard of him he said? Exactly massive in Ireland, I’m in Scotland and not enough people know of him....Legend🇮🇪🏴
Fuckin amazing song and great artist. My Irish background makes me love it even more. I had substance abuse issues and this song strikes so many cords on an unreal level. Much love from Toronto Canada.
Amazing amazing lyrics and performance, whole thing. Thank you Damien for being a shaman bard of our times xxx best blessings from a Dublin girl who escaped to Leitrim 😊
Damo, seen you at the 3Arena for the 1st time last week, your being & energy is so beautiful, a true Irish shaman & druid you are, the love you share and true humbleness.. stunning being.. and what a band aswell.. amazing to have John drumming.. Sínead is my idol, and she spoke so so highly of him 💜💜💜💜
I tried things I shouldn't because of recommendations, and peer pressure. I'm still paying the price, years later, with mental health issues. I'm really impressed with the theme and honesty of this song.

this version is easily a Rolling Stone top 10 best songs of all time.
This should be our national anthem
Not sure if a song about taking herion is good for our national anthem 😂
Brilliant
@@mma4life255can't really think of anything more Irish tbh
Just found this Can’t get enough of it. Pure class.
