Damien Rice - 'Chandelier'

[@oceannesque]

Feeling sad for the people who havent yet discovered Damien Rice and his magic.

[@danaevmaxim9455]

Been listening to his music for over 10 years. But all of the songs are old, he is not releasing anything new for years... not sure what's wrong with him

[@sempopo]

yes..

[@lucascarvalho8313]

I just found his music through a book I was reading... And Im playing It non stop.

[@carloscampos1280]

It's nothing wrong with him. He rather releases masterpieces each 6, 8 years than deliver any shit every 12 months.

I saw him live last year. I swear to God I cried the whole time, man has the purest voice on Earth.

I saw him and in live he kinda had another vibe. But I cried to it was dream come true. I wish you go through that too ❤️❤️❤️

I got the privilege to see him live a few years back he is just on a whole other level. No words could ever capture the way I feel when I listen to his music or how much I just love him 😍😍😍

He came to my homecity on a very short notice and I missed the small concert .. still hurt. Hope I get to see him live ❤️

[@henricosmara9830]

When the cover is way better than original, you know there is something special in this musician

[@lovewithpride7770]

He has completely changed the meaning of this song, so beautiful

[@pipisheaven]

Not really , he just made it literal. The song is about addiction and suicidal thoughts. Swing from the chandelier meaning hanging one self.

[@hipalwayshop]

Where does he find the pain in his voice? He generates so much pain in his voice and I'm hopelessly attracted to his songs...

[@rt09pachuau21]

Most people look at me like I'm not okay and need help when i play Damien Rice. And i play his songs a lot. I'm totally fine, just appreciating amazing art. His songs with Lisa as backup are the best imo.

[@MrSashoks]

Depends man, if people are having a standart party where everyone is drunk af and you put on dm you ain't doing it right. If you are with a few friends or lets say in a car and they can't appreciate you sharing it, it's either not their cuppatey or you need new friends.

Only Damien RIce can provide melancholy needed for the lyrics.

[@DFlaminberry]

I will never forget the first time I heard Damien. His music made me feel encouraged to pursue music myself, as a clarinettist to be exact, for 9 years in school and through college. I'll never forget the first and only time I saw Damien live; it was on the faded fantasy tour. And I've seen a lot of musicians I like, but seeing Damien perform was something I honestly cannot describe. It was straight fucking magic and evoked emotions stronger than I ever thought possible from music. Its been at least 10 years since I first heard a song from Damien Rice, but damn if hearing a new song from him doesn't bring the magic like it did the first time I ever heard him. I'm an engineer now, but it's things like this that make me pull out the old clarinet at least once a month just to make sure I still remember. And I remember it well

[@ruthbindas2039]

He's truly mesmerising live. I saw him in 2003 in London. I was 15. I knew he was incredibly gifted, a master of his craft. It was epic.

I was blessed to see Damien Rice play live at Hammersmith Apollo back in 2007... It was truly one of the best concerts I've ever seen in my life... He's a true artist who shunned the commercial success to find his own free spirit in this broken world... Finding happiness in the simple wonders of humanity in faraway beautiful places far from the maddening crowd where anonymity gives you a little peace.
