Counting the days until 11.15.2014 when I can see Damien Rice live… yes I got tickets!! This album touches every fiber of my soul. He has this way with words for his song that reaches the deepest part of your heart that everyone once experienced. Eight years, I waited for a new album from him and he came out with this masterpiece. Just when I thought all great song writers are next to nonexistence, he gave me hope.
I don't want to change you
Wherever you go
Well, I can always follow
I can feed this real slow
If it's a a lot to swallow
And if you just want to be alone
Well, I can wait without waiting
If you want me to let this go
Well, I'm more than willing...
I am bummed out that I couldn't get ticket to see Damien this November at Apollo Theater. One day… one day soon I will get to see him live… I hope…

I've been experimenting listening to the music late at night on my iphone with my headsets without any noise surrounding me... and it's quite interesting because you can hear everything, from flickering of the guitar to the painful sound of the singer's voice. It's soulful and tranquil. I know strange since I live in the city and you almost always have your headsets on listening to music, but during the day the noise from everyone and everything interrupt your thoughts, you get distracted from the song. It's been a while since I let the music carry me away.
These are rather depressing songs, but they are so beautifully written and performed.
