Damien has the voice of an angel and the soul of an angel - he is one of those rare anomalies that happens only once every now and then! As fellow Irishman - I love Damien!
They strum in such a unison, especially there at the end. It makes me wish I could find someone just as skilled and dedicated to play music with. LE SIGH
Can you believe 2 acoustic guitars can bring so much emotion rather than a plastic artist with all the money and production of the whole world? God, I miss artists such as this.
You can hold her hand And show her how you cry Explain to her your weakness so she understands And then roll over and die You can brave decisions Before you crumble up inside Spend your time asking everyone else's permission Then run away and hide You can sit on chimneys With some fire up your ass No need to know what you're doing or waiting for But if anyone should ask Tell them, I've been licking coconut skins, And we've been hanging out.

his name is Joel Shearer, and used to tour with Damien in 2003 (with his band Pedestrian as supporting band) and in 2006 as well... so this has nothing to do with Lisa leaving the band. Joel also played on Damien's album "9"
One of my top two songs ever, Coconut skins and Yellow light (of monsters and men), Tell them, 'God just dropped by to forgive our sins, And relieve us our doubt. Only if God existed, but its better this way lol.
I have a thought.. this is a bout heroin.. coconut skins, it's brown. "Tell them God came by to forgive our sins". Users have often said first time using heroin is like "being kissed by God" that's how euphoric it is.. and look for it again.
Cocain is "the white lady" he is referring to the drug as a companion. "You can hold her hand And show her how you cry Explain to her your weakness so she understands And then roll over and die" It's clearly getting high and trying to rationalize it.

When you realize that the guitarist sitting next to him looks like a doppelgänger to the guy on the UK X Factor.
Not a doppelgänger, it's actually Robbie himself.
It is isn't it!
Joel Surette thank you! Everyone else: this isn’t Robbie lol.
Bro it is him. WTF WOULD HE GO TO XFACTOR AND SEND A PITTY STOREY
@@Ryanbaggarly he didn't its not him
Damien for life. This irish dude knows what to do with words. Hail Rice!
best song ever
Reminds me of Jim Croche and his accompanist.
Damien has the voice of an angel and the soul of an angel - he is one of those rare anomalies that happens only once every now and then! As fellow Irishman - I love Damien!
This guy deserves to be a global superstar, what a talent
This has such a great Bob Dylan feel to it, a harmonica wouldn't go amiss actually in this song.
If Billy Joel sang this song.

It makes me wish I could find someone just as skilled and dedicated to play music with.
LE SIGH
it's joel shearer, damien's long time guitarist. he's in a band called pedestrian..
this is so good - one of his best live version you can find on here
Can you believe 2 acoustic guitars can bring so much emotion rather than a plastic artist with all the money and production of the whole world? God, I miss artists such as this.
I couldn't get Blowers daughter out my head for years. Until Coconut skins...
Damien Rice, here we go again...
Time is contagious and everyone is getting old
You can hold her hand
And show her how you cry
Explain to her your weakness so she understands
And then roll over and die
You can brave decisions
Before you crumble up inside
Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
Then run away and hide
You can sit on chimneys
With some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them, I've been licking coconut skins,
And we've been hanging out.
Tell them, God just dropped by to forgive our sins,
And relieve us our doubt.
You can hold her eggs
But your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for'
Tell her you're searching for her soul
You can wait for ages
Watch your compost turn to coal
But time is contagious
And everybody's getting old
So you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them, I've been cooking coconut skins,
And we've been hanging out.'
Tell them, 'God just dropped by to forgive our sins,
And relieve us our doubt.
Eirene Vita you got some of the lyrics wrong by the way
@@martinsapsted9653 two "ever" and one "waiting". Thanks by the way...
This always reminds me of a bit of a drinking song for some reason, in a great way....

I went looking up her Chimney but all i found was smoke
Adore him! ❤️

Perfect song emotional
Still love this

2 people were actually looking up Coconut Skin videos on youtube.
@XhappycoakleyX so everybody should love damien rice and his music!
❤️
Damien Rice is one of the greatest singers in history and this video is amazing, but I miss Lisa... :(
It's sad that this has 250k views, but the homeless guy's cover has 2.5 million :(
the man didn't mean no harm.
Wow i can not believe you want to compare which one has bigger Viewers as if the views would make any of them more important .
Watch it over and over maybe you will catch it up.... i have faith in you
savagemyth plot twist.... The homeless guy is in the video... crazy eh? Look at the guy at the left.
It's over 8 million now
😊❤
@PeterCreaner Once a poet always a poet. He'll be back. Have no doubt :)
Wow 31 non believers. This tune is class..👍
been looking at the x factor and yep looks like him
best version
perfection!! 320000 views and some knob sings it on shit factor and gets 7000000 views lol> Very strange world indeed
The "knob" is singing beside him
leonard byrne twat. It may be a stupid talent show yes, but don’t slag the lad off he did the song proud man.
Well, imo Robbie Hance made this so much better so he deserves it!
Shut the fuck up dude
just what i was thinking
A + + +
@windsablowin ah you shouldnt compare the two! both are incredible in their own way!
fuckin' gorgeous!
One of my top two songs ever, Coconut skins and Yellow light (of monsters and men), Tell them, 'God just dropped by to forgive our sins, And relieve us our doubt. Only if God existed, but its better this way lol.
he is 1 cool cucumber!!
I don't know his name.. but he has been with him since lisa left the band in 2007.... so it's been more than a year... he tours with him also.
...A modern day folk song.
hah good spot!
Looks great!
Who's with him?
cool
that 1 person must feel like such a plonker.
I think its Robbies father or something cause Robbie was young. Remember what he said music brings up that time and place
Ben Howard or Damien Rice?
+Naif Sayyaf (FiAN)
Both!!
@macgiver351 Wrong. It gets a lot better when Lisa is singing backup :P
They still remind me of Jim Croce and his accompanist
Oh.. And I just realised something - that's Damien Rice next to Robbie Hance.
he is hottt
This song is deep. Just like the song of society your crazy breed, eddie Vedder society song. It's cool 😎
Fuckin tune. My good mate Ben showed me this song.
yeppers bro
Is that Robbie Hance?
yes thats him..
I'm pretty sure that's Joel Shearer. He's a guitarist that accompanied Damien on tour during those years.
Unfortunately Robbie still somewhere on the streets
ya sitting beside Damien is Robbie
guys, this video was uploaded in 2007...
There is that homeless guy from X factor
Damien is amazing, but Damien + Lisa was PERFECT
bloke on the left has got to be him off xfactor
"show her how you cry" ;
Hes jelled his hair? Since when?!
I sing this to my 1 year old daughter every night... minus the "fire up your ass" part :)
its joel shearer, trust me
Damn you mom and dad, why couldnt you be irish!:)
what the???! is that the "homeless" guy from x factor (who i really liked btw)?? odd, no?
guys, this video was uploaded in 2007...
Robbie hance brought me here
i dont believe that is the same person..he is no Robbie:(
Maria Mavrea u also looking for robbie👍😁
Is that Robbie Hance w/ him. Wtf
It makes me miss lisa...
The other guy is alright, but coconut skins without lisa is not the same. Too bad she left.
Anyways.
Thanks for the post

One dislike... There's always one.
That is not Robbie standing next to Damien...nothing like him you should go to spec savers
Why is Damien Hannce here like a back up singer to Damien Rice ? Did he run because of all this Buisness s*** ?
1.25x speed. Trust me.

Nice to see Simon looking after one of Damien's failed artist, wait he did that last year for Damien! Fake reality shows, what next
