Your Astronaut - Damien Rice - Instagram Live Session

I don't own this; this is all Mr. Rice. I'm just a huge fan and thought people who don't follow him on Instagram would like to see this, since it's an "instagram story" and is temporary there. Went through a lot of trouble actually getting the video from there, merging the audio and video, etc. If you want me to take it down, Damo, I'd be more than happy to. Thanks!

Omg... that guitar sounds sooooooooo good!!!!!!! The depth of sound. I heard this song live in Brooklyn a week ago, and it was just other worldly.

[@pragyapasricha3322]

Thankyou so much for posting this. You have no idea what this song has done for me, just having the privilege of listening to this at this time in life makes me too happy. Thanks!!!!!

[@mitapink2009]

My thoughts exactly ❤❤

[@devinrobertson5251]

You're so welcome!!:) his music is filled with so much emotion, you can literally "feel" it! I know I'm not Damien, but in so so happy that I could help!!:)

[@joevalentin4495]

@Joe Valentin instablaster ;)

[@jamescaan7869]

I wish I could express myself in such a beautiful way as this

[@devinrobertson5251]

Right?! Me too! I love the way each next pluck 'flows', in Your Astronaut, like, for example, when he's humming... if that makes any sort of sense. It's calming and beautiful!

[@KeystotheWorldJail]

James Caan. You just did.

Btw, Devin. Thanks for this! It lifted me today. 😊

[@devinrobertson5251]

You're welcome!! I just saw him live in Los Angeles, two days in a row. It's taking some time, 'cause my internet is garbo, but I'm uploading his concerts, as well as Silvia Pérez Cruz's songs that she opened with, for Damien!:) I'm glad it could lift you up!

[@kennethcmerrill]

I'm so glad you captured this. It's incredible.

[@devinrobertson5251]

Beautiful song.

[@devinrobertson5251]

Isn't it just? I love it!

[@vivaseussonhos]

I don't understand why I see so many songs from years ago that sadly aren't recorded. 😔 does anyone know anything about a possible next album?

[@johannespazzo4457]

❤

[@theynot0058]

Thanks a cool song from one of my favorite artists ...audio is a little faint and hard to hear though but makes you be still and quiet to hear it...

[@nataliaba9577]

Thanks a lot for sharing! Amazing!

[@devinrobertson5251]

You're welcome, Natalia!:) I love the calmness and the feelings of these songs. Especially the first one!

[@Elia-ys9rc]

[@victorh2515]

I love you

[@ryanwheatley7127]

Awesome dude you rock brother god bless you my friend from England Ryan :) :)

[@devinrobertson5251]

You're welcome man!:) I saw this on Instagram and thought, "I NEED to download this somehow. It took about an hour to find a way, but I found it! Even though I see that another copy of the video was added later, I'm glad to see that I could get the word out:)

[@halaybas669]

been almost a year and a half and i am still waiting for him to sing the songs that he played live during this boat tour

[@atacancanan]

halay başı

[@jatindhyani1996]

Is it just me or does this have Alexi Murodch's Orange Sky vibes?

[@Makkkoko]

hi, does anyone know what's the name of the second song?

[@devinrobertson5251]

The 'public' name for it at the moment is Behind Those Eyes. I'm unsure if Damien's confirmed that or not yet, though. I remember the 'public' name for The Box was Wild and Free and it was 'known' as Wild and Free until one day he popped up on stage and said, "This is a new song. It's called The Box".(:

[@lgrcallum]

Do you have the rest of the instagram sessions? Just as a way of keeping them around permanently would be nice. Thanks

[@devinrobertson5251]

So he did Cold Water (into Hallelujah) , I remember (With the uh "I just can't get you out of my head" part jammed in there), and 9 crimes? I think? This was over the course of a few days. But unfortunately, I really only had the idea to find a way to record it and get it, etc., after hearing this song. So this is unfortunately the only one I've got, I'm sorry!

[@anviz2008]

there are those vids on youtube. just type damien rice live and put a filter that shows videos published this month

[@maryam-rd9di]

that'll do :')

[@pirateunder40]

Imagine Lisa would be on that boat.......

[@devinrobertson5251]

While I obviously don't agree with Switch here, I think Damien does have his own magic about him. I think his voice does mesh very well with Lisa's, however, but things happen in life, you know? It's sad, but it seems like they're both content with their lives right now, and that's what counts:)

[@Ed-ws3rw]

Shut up man, its all over. (not offensive)

[@neroyu1652]

Switch Dolphin I am gonna cry

[@kasia8306]

guys calm down, they broke up TEN YEARS AGO and still everyone comments about her all the time. you're like the grandma that at every christmas dinner mentions your ex boyfriend and says it's a pity he's not here, even though you haven't been together in years and she knows that VERY well

[@35PHaaton]

Both of them look healthy and happy now, especially damien rice. He looks a lot better and his voice is back. Maybe it was good for them to break up. Love and learn.

[@brunabranco]

[@henribest4637]

Is the first song based on Wild Mountain Thyme?

[@devinrobertson5251]

Nope!

[@henribest4637]

@@devinrobertson5251 oh okay. thought i could hear some similar sounding arpeggios :)

[@giuliaacquisti6512]

someone could write down the lyrics please?

[@devinrobertson5251]

So I tried decyphering what I could from what he was singing, and go the following from the two songs (there was one part in "Your Astronaut" which I couldn't understand, but I got the rest. For "Your Astronaut" I can be your brother help you to hide I can blow your cover Pull the thorns from your side I can be your astronaut If you want some space I can hold mirrors Right in your face I can be your father that you never had ~(can't make out this part)~ I can be your astronaut If you want some space I can hold mirrors Right in your face I can be the mother That sings you to sleep Love you like no other Be the tears you can't weep I can be your astronaut If you want some space I can hold mirrors Right in your face For "Behind those eyes" Whoh are you babe Without regrets Without your mother and without that dress without the lovers who told you lies tell me who is behind those eyes Who are you babe when you are alone when nobodey's watching When no one is home Nobody hears if you laugh or if you cry Tell me who is behind those eyes Who are you babe You're not afraid Of living or dying or being replaced Who are you now no mask or disguise tell me who is behind those eyes Who are you babe without regrets without your mother without that dress without the lovers who told you lies tell me who is behind those eyes

[@giuliaacquisti6512]

Devin Robertson thank you so much!

[@devinrobertson5251]

You're so welcome! I hope it helped out :))

[@Spamlet1]

The two lines you missed are "Have ease for what's harder/ And ears for what's sad."

[@devinrobertson5251]

Thank you! I couldn't understand what he was saying. This is lovely, thank you!

[@carbonfrog1]

Thank you
