He's one of the few that really gives me shiver. My God. This man is amazing. He knows what he sings and makes you feel it for real. Cheers from Italy!
If a person can feel a song to its conclusion as well as play it then there in lays the talent. His heart bleed those words out. Beautiful Mr Rice simply beautiful.
Should I speak? Should I bother shaking hands? Am I weak If I leave it as it stands? I've submerged And I've surfaced with the blame I guess I'm no good, I guess I'm insane Should I go, if she calls out my name? And if she bleeds, should I wipe up the stain? And if I'm low, can I drown in this rain? I guess I'm no good, I guess I'm insane And I hate when you say That I never fight for you Sometimes you breathe All over my scar And you always end up Closer than close That's where I give in Should I confess The actions of a hand In my mind I'll betray you once again Why should I climb? What is there to gain? This is no good This is insane And I hate when you say That I never fight for you Sometimes you breathe All over my scar And you always end up Closer than close That's where I give in You're taking, you're taking You're taking me down You're taking, you're taking You're taking me down And you always end up Closer than close That's where I give in
I use to love this man when I was seventeen, I even saw him live once and it was unbelievable. now I am 23 and I'm listening this again and its like remembering this part of me but in a different way...
I think this song has a double meaning: first, I think it is about a relationship that is with someone difficult and he is insane to be in it. "I hate it when you say I never fight for you" means to me that this woman is a nagging type that is never happy. "If she bleeds, should I wipe up the stain?" He is always trying to make her happy...Always taking the blame etc...he knows she's a type that probably doesn't deserve his attentions, but in the end, they always got 'closer than close' and he 'gives in' to his feelings. Second, it's about the clash between his sexual impulses and his self consciousness. 'should I speak...' he's talking to himself about if it's really worthy to approach someone just for the sake of sex and to get a relationship, since 'in his mind' he'll 'betray her once again'. 'I never fight for you', he's talking to his sexual impulse. But when they mount ('closer than close'), he can't take it anymore and he gives in
Look how it hurts her, this tour was on contract. They broke up during it. And this is an unreleased track that he made and wanted to play it. Her manager told the producer to only zoom in on him when she realized that wasn’t planned
Because if it's touched by the label heads they'll turn it into a pop song. Think the acoustic version of Howie day- Collide vs the album version. It'll ruin his genuine it js
what the f#*% damien where have you been for all of my life ive need you some many time your passion your love and capability to open your soul to the world it has and from now on will always be inspiration to me.. insane yes much love mate
This is starting to make sense but it’s heartbreaking to watch. “Submerge and surface with the blame”? But these lyrics, in this song, it sounds like it’s being passed through the wind. That’s insane.
These insanely fast double strums Damien rice does in a lot of his songs like at 2:13 and at 4:10 is just incredible. I’ve played guitar for more than half of my life now and that technique is incredibly hard to pull off in the way Damien does, particularly while singing on top.
watching lisa's expression while he's singing always pains me. looks like she's fighting tears at 0:46. something must have been going on between the two for sure during this.

Warte. Dieser Kommentar und die Likes bedeuten, dass ich nicht die einzige verdammte Person im deutschsprachigen Raum bin, die diesen Sänger liebt. Da fühlt man sich doch gleich viel weniger einsam!!! =)
Still here 2024
2024 I'm still here.....
Same !! This is epic
Still obsessed with this in 2021.
It living thing
Obsessed is an understatement! I can't get my day going without his poetry. It's passion, pain, and love pouring out of him!❤️❤️❤️
9yrs later. I still play this one a lot.
Still one of my all time favorites
Still obsessed with this in 2022.
Still listening in 2023
He's one of the few that really gives me shiver. My God. This man is amazing. He knows what he sings and makes you feel it for real. Cheers from Italy!
He's pure emotion. I fucking love him !!!!!

That´s it :-)
This 'emotional cutting' moment brought to you by the master, Mr Damien Rice 💔
I’m in love with everything this man does
I love you Damien. You are the singer my soul always seeked.
Should I speak?
Should I bother shaking hands?
Am I weak If I leave it as it stands?
I've submerged
And I've surfaced with the blame
I guess I'm no good, I guess I'm insane
Should I go, if she calls out my name?
And if she bleeds, should I wipe up the stain?
And if I'm low, can I drown in this rain?
I guess I'm no good, I guess I'm insane
And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you
Sometimes you breathe
All over my scar
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's where I give in
Should I confess
The actions of a hand
In my mind
I'll betray you once again
Why should I climb?
What is there to gain?
This is no good
This is insane
And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you
Sometimes you breathe
All over my scar
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's where I give in
You're taking, you're taking
You're taking me down
You're taking, you're taking
You're taking me down
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's where I give in
It's insaaane how much i love this song !!!! ❤️
This song has some has average lyrics, but Damien pours his soul into it. Such a fantastic performer.
amazing dynamics both on vocals and guitar...Legend of his generation.
I use to love this man when I was seventeen, I even saw him live once and it was unbelievable. now I am 23 and I'm listening this again and its like remembering this part of me but in a different way...
Fantastic Damien!
2024 and im still here with this guy
oh my god this song is everything
First time hearing this song...damn his lyrics scrape your soul!
It's insane.
I wonder what inspired him to make a song like this, it's beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time.

They broke up

@@WilliamReyesdubelu It's not unreleased, it's a song from Juniper (in which he used to be the lead vocals)
a rainy day, cold and this pops in mind. It surely feels good
I love this man ❤️
The control from the chorus to the third verse is just genius.
2023 Lo mejor que he visto en mi vida .. Es perfecto
Fell in love with this song when I first heard it!!!
Been a fan since 2004..

Awesome, simply awesome.
Great unreleased Rice song. There was a version recorded at the Greek Theater floating out there on the net that is spectacular.
This song physically hurt me.
How come this song is not published anywhere? Same with forgotten deers.
Because if it's touched by the label heads they'll turn it into a pop song. Think the acoustic version of Howie day- Collide vs the album version. It'll ruin his genuine it js
Amazing, love this song.
As a noise artist I don’t like lyrics with music …BUT I MAKE EXCEPTION FOR HIM ❤🥰❤️🔥❤ he sings to my soul ❤❤❤!!!

Damien 🌹
Thank you for uploading it! First time I'm hearing this and I absolutely love it!
The smile and eyes thing he does towards the end xD

A real gem!
Amo essa musica
lisa peeking at 2:16 like "holy shitttt"
finally someone post this video long time coming god bless you :D
I love this song
Show me music lovers... you just need to listen Damien.
Fantastic rare version!
Grata pir ouvir esta lenda
amazing voice and song! (Btw first time i see him clean)
Shes more than his "ex". Shes a big part of the succes of both his albums, she also has 2 of her own albums which are worth looking into.
Damien Rice plays a cedar topped Lowden guitar. Maybe it's a Lowden F23C Cedar/Walnut 16717 Acoustic Guitar (not sure)
I miss that duo
2022, love u Damien
this is the best version of this song- better than the live ones!
His singing on the Udine street version, a few weeks ago, is more intense, really out of mind. He's still improving....
amazing
2022 .he is incredible f........e
i love love love this
I'll still be here, from 2045
This is a nice song one of my friends recommended this to me
Wow badass song 👍
I really need this song on Spotify and it’s not
Sounded like pearl jam damn this is a badass song
Nice lyrics
