Perfect Autumn song - Eskimo by Damien Rice

Perfect when sitting in front of the window, watching the rain falling down.
The one song that makes me cry so easily.

That feeling when Damien Rice makes eye contact with you.

The brightest eyes I've ever seen.
His sweet laugh..
A precious and a bit awkward memory :)

Damien Rice - One

Couldn't really appreciate this cover until now!
I love this version, love Damo's sad voice.

Damien Rice is doing gigs around Europe,

missing a few places!!
:'(

Damien Rice - Delicate (Sessions@AOL)

One of my favourite live versions of Delicate.

Ray Lamontagne & Damien Rice - To love somebody

I only realised how beautiful this song is, when I heard this amazing version. Ray and Damien are both honest and pure artist, I love them!

Today's Playlist

Lyrics:

Don't give me something to hold in my hand,
Something else to believe in, cause I'm over it.

Your reason for wanting to stay,
Your reason for wanting to change,
My reason for everything I've done to you.

But I try but I don't fit,
Into this box I'm living with.
Well, I could go wild but she might lock me up.
And I have tried but I don't fit,
Into this box you call a gift.
I could be wild and free,
But God forbid that you might envy me.

So don't give me love with a whole bunch of rules,
Cause that kind of love is for fools,
And I'm over it.

And my reason for walking away,
My reasons for wanting to change,
My reasons for everything I lost with you.

But I try but I don't fit,
Into this box I'm living with,
Well I could go wild but she might lock me up.
And I have tried but I don't fit,
Into this box you call a gift.
I could be wild and free, but God forbid that you might envy me.
I could be wild and free, maybe then I'll see what this means to me.

Dublin Christmas busk

Today, I still walk around dreaming about the Christmas busk last December. Yesterday, while listening to The Blowers Daughter at work, I suddenly had a huge smile on my face when I remembered running into Damien in Dublin. The memory of his bright blue eyes warms my heart and soul..
God, I miss Dublin...
And in the video, you can actually see me at 04:30, the blonde gal :)

Thing I Love Monday

Love dreaming about a future in Dublin. My husband and I always wanted to just go one day and leave this country forever. And I know, in a few years, we will :)

Love owls.

Love giving books to children.

Love the cute pink cake we ate at the birthday of my little neighbour.

Love having some more time to draw.

Love my in-laws who helped us with our sill plate's. now the cats can finally sleep in front of the windows without falling off.

Love talks about baby's :)

Love and totally adore Damien Rice's video of The Blowers Daughter. I enjoy it even more now that I've seen him play the song for real!

Things I Love Tuesday

Love Dublin. It's been my second visit to this beautiful city and I've fallen in love all over again. It felt like coming home and I had the most amazing time of my life. Christmas night was filled with awesome musicians, and at Christmas day it felt like I had the whole city to myself. It was horrible to leave so soon.

Love running into Damien Rice, to get a change to talk to him and most important to hear him sing :)

Love the Irish accent.

Love Irish pub songs.

Love St Stephen's day.

Love everything green.

Love Dublin doors.

Inspiration: Damien Rice

Damien Rice, my number one artist. I love him as a musician, as a poet, as a beautiful soul. Like my keys, I carry his album O with me all the time. I just can't call it a day without one of his songs...
