"Life goes easy on me/Most of the time"
- "The Blower's Daughter" - Damien Rice, O.
I have been listening to a lot of Damien Rice lately. Namely, his "O" album. It's folk, and it's good. His songwriting is top notch, and it's beauty.
I first heard "Delicate" while using Pandora, which is a pretty awesome website, I might add. (Explained *here*). It was nice and mellow, but deep.
I told myself to download it, but I didn't get around to it. I did, however, find that my not-so-little brother had Damien's cd. I imported it onto my iBook. Finally, one day I decided to listen to it. I was instantly drawn to "Cannonball." Stones taught me to fly, Love taught me to lie, Life taught me to die......it's just so beautiful. HIs voice just draws the emotion out. I told my good friend Becky, the super vlogger, that "Cannonball," (pretty much the whole album) makes me wish I had a boyfriend I had broken up with so I could bawl to this album.
Move over Dashboard and your emo anguish. Hello Damien and your folky feelings.
But then, I am single, and therefore, have no one to break up with. Har har.
Anyway. This is an album I strongly recommend. Taken or not, it's quality.
Get These: The Blower's Daughter, Cannonball, Amie, Cheers Darlin', I Remember....oh, bugger. just buy the album
