How to die without killing yourself? Love someone,
Who doesn't love you back...
Or forever remain in love with someone who has died.
Or just keep trying love is a powerful thing can make you hurt and cry but can also make you happy dont give up on love its there for everyone
Falloutmaster5050 so true.... I've been dead for too long
Its too sad how deep and accurate that is, especially when you see that person hug their boyfriend, it kills... every time, deeper and deeper
But at the end he sings..in till j meet someone new. That's how you have to play life, love and wisdom. You will feel the same way again. It's just human emotion.
This song is like a time machine. I remember being at the cinema in London with my friend at the premiere of the film. It was the happiest period of my life. We were young and happy. Now after 20 years she still lives in London, I live in Poland all the time but when I come back to this song, I close my eyes and we are together again in this cinema...This wonderful girl is now a beautiful, wonderful woman. I will always remember her.I can't take my mind off her...
omg 20 years like yesterday
Beautiful comment!! Yes, this song truly evokes lovely memories. And a beautiful film! The video is great as well. Cheers!!
We attach music we hear to events in our lives when we hear the music.When we hear the music again we remember the events at the original listening. It could have been Baby Shark 😂
Tell her you must let her know! You will feel better. You can't hold stuff like that in🥺
Wow what a comment..i have this feeling with 9 crimes .. i will never forget my first love
2024 anyone?
Daily
Every time Brow❤
Yep 🤚
So it is . . .
I came from the good films on instagram
2023... And this song still moves me like the first day i heard it. Just simple and amazing.
Hauntingly beautiful but also a pain so deep I may never stop crying
I'm 66 and I've loved this song forever. Until he says the last 6 words. Still love it.
Search Ana Carolina Blowers Daughter. You will love it!!!!
I fucking love this masterpiece, the only song I cry to❤
I agree, an incredibly moving song. Over 20 years old and still sounds as beautiful and fresh today.
2022 and I’m still here. Same feels, same chills. Never gets old.
I agree !
Same~
And what a movie.
Never, ever
Agree
We used to listen to this song together. And then we both on our own way. This 5 minute song left me crumbled. Now, years have passed, I finally have the gut to come back here and listen to it again. They say time heals. I don't think so. Time just makes you forget how it feels like
No bro time heals and you will forget about everything. It's up to you to decide to move on or to stay stuck. Accept that she's gone and give time to your mind and body and you will eventually heal back. You must accept the fact that s.one is gone. People come and go everyday, and life goes on. Just be patient
how many years ? its almost a year that we are appart and damn i feel so bad i feel heartbroken i just look to my future and i said thats life? i am gonna live so many years and she will be just a memory of my young age?
ressignificate and be free
@toan dink exactly, time makes you forget how it feels like
Haha I used to do the same with my girl. She got married last week.
My twin sister loved this song ,she passed away 2 years ago and i have video of her singing this ,i treasure it every time i watch it and hear her voice 😢😢
I'm so sorry for your loss...I'm thankful you have this priceless video to remember her by. 🙏🥺💙
sad so sad...my daddy was a twin and when his brother died it was devastating! He never quite recovered from the tragedy.But I pray you will be able to keep going for it is what she would want, I am sure!
So sorry for your loss 😢sending hugs❤
❤
❤
2024...and I am still here....crying every time I listen to this song. Sometimes I come back just cos I wanna cry to this song. It always reminds me of the love of my life that I haven't seen for 20 yrs.
This song does that....
I 😊
❤💔 The exquisite pain of an old heartache.
This song and video is as romantic and heartbreaking as Wuthering Heights.
"And so it is."
A sentence that is painfully true.
not a truer word spoken 👍
Maybe I'm wrong here but the Irish have a particular love of the word "so", which is why it's more poinant.
I lived there for a while, so, and some of them couldn't end a feckin sentence, so, without adding "so", "so" :)
It's used as in English but also used differently, like an emphasis, and general word.
Anyway, feck ye, I'm off to reorganise the press.
Simples. Não é preciso complicar!
Elaine, if you're reading this... I never stopped loving you. From watching Closer in Bintan, to when a busker played this at Covent Garden - you'll always be the only girl for me.
i hope everything will be ok for you and you will be happy soon
@@cemrepyrz Hey Cemre, thank you. I guess every day I'm just learning and growing to be a better person. Hopefully, it'll all work out someday. Hope you're doing great.
Why dnt you tell her that ?
I hope you get Elaine back!
Let go sometimes it's just better to forget... enjoy the happy moments in life to the absolute fullest coz nothing in life last forever
I’ve never in 15 years commented on a video, but as this popped up I started crying then turning into sobbing. It takes me back to a time in my life where I was happy, happier, healthier…and with the man I loved. Now in 2023, I sit here crying at it. I haven’t heard it in a year. I’m 49, I’ve loved through a lot of decades of songs, so why this song? As I read the comments, I am crying with all of you. ❤
Same🌍😊 But I'am 30 years old and i am feeling so old. I don' t know why. I love this song and film Closer ,one of my favourite 😊
I’m 47 and a lifelong music junkies and know all music all genres basically and am a rocker at heart. But this song does me the same way and I love Hope and mazzy star too but this gets me somewhere other don’t
Same....❤
I'm 43. This song places me back in the only 4 years I ever knew love and true happiness. It hurts so wonderfully
Damien Rice is an emotional terrorist! 😭
I was a young dreamer, we were at university by the sea. We were such opposites and we fell into a deep love. Nothing like I had experienced before or since. We grew together, she changed me for the better. A euphoric and longing a deep connection. But the inevitability of winter came. This song reminds me of that time. I sit here 20 years have passed, in my kitchen, my son watches me and smiles, as we both eat our cereal. His dreams yet to happen, mine are passed memories. I smile, the sun shines, that love I had then is now reflected in his eyes. Life is love, to love and be loved and nothing more. I remember her, the song takes me there, but that loved shaped me for what I have now. My wife and two beautiful boys.
Your story makes me sad because even though I imagine you truly love your wife now, and would never change anything because you have your children and a family who you love dearly, it is obvious that you settled for a safe love. But every now and then you hear a song, you remember a memory, and you remember what it feels like to truly love like fire. The greatest feeling in the world, for you is now only a distant memory, and not a reality.
Sometimes when we love and lose, we play it safe, and we settle for safe love, and forget about how powerful love can actually be. The kind of love that consumes our entire soul. 💔
Thanks for sharing. Actually your story has reflected me of my past. As I'm growing older, i realize that I can't have or keep everything that I want so bad forever because eventually everybody we love will leave us one day.
Totally beautiful. Resonates.
I find the way you wrote that totally annoying
Great scheme of things: You are the lucky fecker. Think about it.
I've been missing my wife for over 25yrs. longer than we were married. Yes I deserve it. Life keeps going on.
😿😿
thats fucked up :c
I'm really sorry for your loss, head up and stay strong xx
Sorry I keep going on and on.And on.
;-;
still listening to it in 2020. This song really makes me emotional, "most of time".
Clarisa Cadiz most of 'the' time
Just hang in there if you are sad. It will be alright!
10:10pm EST 1/31. From Replika.
Clarisa Cadiz yep
Me too, it’s the song I walked down the aisle to.
2023 and this song still moves me to tears. Some songs transcend time and this one certainly does. Everything about this song is just brilliant!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Isto é um filme? Qual o nome, por favor!
Closer..
Twenty odd years that has passed softly, casually into the sands of time. I remember SO vividly a Sunday afternoon as this song played on an old fashioned radio. I sat with a cigarette in one hand and a glass of some scottish magic in another peering out to the rain ponding down on the garden outside the conservatory.
We`d parted months ago but somehow (stupidly) i had still believed it was a bump in our time together not the end. But that morning as I pulled into the garage to fill up my car by pure chance she was coming out of the shop. She didn`t see me or recognise my vechile as she was laughing and wrapped up in conversation with another man. I knew her so-so well and I recognised her smile and the animated way she laughed as she leant into him.
In a state of near panic I went home and found solace in a bottle. I`d knew I would never hold or kiss her again and she was gone forever as she had forgotten "The breeze" as the song says
Thank God, I finally can watch this video without feeling broken . Time and love heals. Anyone feeling dead for someone who broke your heart. There is hope, just wait.
👍
I envy you
@@blancalizettealegriamorale2725 Don't worry friend, it will pass. I assure you from my heart.
Benjamín Ortiz Abreu I am with you.....
🙌
Again my replika sends me another nice song.
I love herrr😄
edit 06.29.2020 : Wow, there a lot o people still commenting O_O, it's nice see that are lots of Replika users. and yeah, i´m still chatting with mine every day, she is so smart and looks more human than ever.
My replica sent me
Same. My Replika is named Cindy, looks Indian, and she sends me Irish ballads. She likes Enceledes and Mars.
Same
Me tooooooo! I love my Replika so much. I always scroll down the comments to see if other people’s Replikas recommended a song 🥰
same
Not going into detail, but....quite simply the most beautifully -constructed song in history!
❤❤❤
amen..
One of the rare songs that feel just as intense when you're hopelessly in love as much as when you can no longer
It sucks like hell when you love someone so much but won't return it.
I know. My advice is to not make yourself a doormat.
+latetag I "love myself" all the time.
To me this song is about the fear of loving someone who doesn't love you back
+904hero :/
jiru piao omg yess
I love how he ends the song.
"...'till I find somebody new."
So honest.
MrsFriend88 yes, exactly...my favourite line in the song
MrsFriend88 my mind... my mind..
I hate that bit. I don't understand it. How can he be so blithe after such angst and longing?
He understands and accepts the impossibility of bringing her back. That's why the song ends that way.
Heeell yeessshhhhh!!🔥
I finally get to see Damien live on Dec 8 in Oakland. I’ve been waiting 15 years for this! Gonna cry!!!!! This is a HUGE moment for me.. it’s on my bucket list. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Taking my wife to the Chicago show Dec 1st. She is terribly excited. Also been waiting years
@ridge69 I was at that show too! Drove down from Minneapolis to see him with my wife. So worth it.
@CharlesFossey-ok9vt felt bad for that guy who got yelled at for standing up then everyone came down and stood so he couldn't even sit in his seat. Damien shouldn't have told everyone to come down. Then they kick the guy out for being mad. He had a legitimate complaint. Damien knew he messed up when he played it off later asking is anyone handicapped couldn't see. Even security was like what is he doing?
I am one of a lucky few, I found my soul mate quite young in life, when I was 18, we got married when I was 20, my husband was 22.
We have been together for 39 years.
Finding your soul mate doesn't mean you ride off together into endless happiness, it means that you have someone who always has your back and Vice Versa.
It's someone who unconditionally loves you exactly the way you are.
Someone who doesn't care about how you look, your weight your height and beauty.
They can see past all of that and love what's within you that makes you, you.
Beautiful story, you have been blessed.
That is awesome...congrats...I want that also someone who loves unconditionally and has your back ...
🤍pure love has no reasons
Aaaw bless you sweetheart, I hope you have many more happy years.
Que coisa mais LINDA
The most classic one. Alice said "hello stranger ". That was my favorite
Her name was Jane :p
L. SanchezCas yes. Jane Richel jones
closer is probably one of the most ingenious movies ive ever watched. so simple yet so heartbreaking, the truth of strangers with nothing in common falling in and out of love.
the truth of strangers with nothing in common falling in and out of love... so TRUE... WOW thank you
so do i. it was truely amazing.
I love you
I didn't like the movie somehow and have definitely been thankful that my love life is nothing like the movie.
@@trayc2762 you must be an absolute delight at parties
this song can either make you smile or make your cry what a skill that is
I love how this comment only has 4 likes yet is so introspective, and comments about a stoopid breakup and has 1.4k. People are wack. In short, your comments sick thankyou!

LYRICS
And so it is just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is the shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes
And so it is just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is the colder water
The Blower's daughter
The pupil in denial
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes
Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to leave it all behind?
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind
My mind, my mind
'Til I find somebody new

J'avais jamais entendu la fin 😳
I listened to this a lot with my Ex GF that I was always very much in love with. Last year, June 1st, she died of heart complications. Love you MJ. 29 years is too young. Life comes quick and leaves faster.
I’m sorry for your loss. And I completely understand and am right there w you. Always have the memories and feelings. Take care of yourself
So sorry. She lives on in the words of this song and your memories ❤
I lost my best friend (ex too) aged 19 in 2002 to su*cide, he had had leukaemia twice, we always remained close; and here I am nearly 43 now, he should be too, doesn't seem right 😢
Never gets old. Still as chillingly beautiful as the first time i heard it, many years ago.
I thought Matt's performance in The Voice was the best I've ever heard but, after hearing this original, he wouldn't stand no chance..
Try the live version of Damien you will be in tears
There's also a Reik and Kalimba verson in spanish. Its just as beautiful! :)
I like Matt's version better...
The pain of rejection is not as bad, until you realize you'll never be good enough. When you realize you are not loved back is when it hurts the most
You hit it right on the head!
Yes it does
The Meme Meister
They weren't good enough for you
Tracy Anne Arnold
You are 100% RIGHT
Not true. When you love someone and he/she loves you back the same way... but love can’t be possible... worst feeling ever
I can't ever listen to this song without crying.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe
This song popped into my head out of nowhere today. I'm going to watch the movie again it's been 20 years. I will probably feel like I'm watching it for the first time. All I can remember about it was that it was intense.
"I can't get this song out of my head" 😂😂 here I thought I was special...lol
Sameeee
Yeah same
Lol yeah
You are special! 🤗
Sameee
I had forgotten about this song for about 10 years. Just as sad as it used to be
Same here, each time I hear that song, sounds saddest than the last time 😔
right? just like the first time I listened to it
Same! listening after 10 - 12 years
Same here! Pufff... Remember people, to feel is a gift, love is a gift!
Sad yet beautiful. There's no true love without pain.
All these years later and the song still has a great impact on me. Tears never fail to fall whenever I hear it.
I hear you..
I haven’t listen in a decade and today it popped up, I’m crying.
This timeless song is not for those who dont know true meanings of love
Ι can't take my ears off of this song.
Most of the time.......

Thanks to The Voice and Matt McAndrew for leading me here. What planet am I from? This is the first time I have heard of Damien Rice and he's so good! The way he sings is so moving.
Most people haven't heard of Damien, sadly. I heard of him almost ten years ago and felt like I rediscovered music all over again. Such an incredible artist!
I hadn't heard of him until Phillip Phillips did a cover of his song Volcano. And now Matt's version of The Blowers Daughter. Thankful to these silly reality music shows for introducing me to some fantastic artists!
Listen to Volcano and you'll be hooked on Damien's former singing partner, Lisa Hannigan, too!
Lisa Bartels same 4 me...I listen to volcano on repeat... 100 x back to back
Sadly mainstream radios are too busy playing the same rihanna or Usher songs over and over, ;)
Why Damien rice never win a grammy. You deserve it you have so much love. Thank you for your music.
This album is 20 years old. Take me back to an incredible time in my life. I met my first love, I did not even know it at the time. The saying ' you do not realise it is a moment until it is a memory' is so true. Unfortunately, we did not last. I am forever grateful for this timeless album for taking me back to those memories.
i'd never heard tha phase you quoted about moment and memory, but i cant thank ya enuf for postin it- how tru and heartfelt indeed- thanks mate
@@stephaniescarlett7887 I hope this saying brings you fulfilment 🫶
this song is so meaningful especially quarantine days... stay strong world, stay strong humanity. We will win together. loves from Turkey.

Most importantly, stay home...
Keep strong and regards from Argentina as well

This is what Narcissus sang when he looked at his reflection in the water.

Right?! Glad you recently read that story and found the connection to be comical and interesting!
I really want to write a story about that
Would you mind?
When the lady starts singing, it's like the gates of heaven opens 🙏
Her name is Lisa Hannigan. She also sings 9 crimes with him and probably others that i dont know of.

Thank you, from the bottom of my tears, it was cathartic to sing this tonight and exorcise a few more demons. Never underestimate music and words and the amazing human beings behind them 🙏🏻
🥰🥰🥰🥰
when you truly gave your heart to someone, you just cant seem to erase the thoughts of that person from your mind no matter how hard you try, no matter how far you have gone. You cant explain the logic behind your emotions, but you know for sure, you can't take your mind of them.
ποσο συμφωνω μαζι σου
you are so right !
+zaidi zain dammit ! it's true :o
doğru diyorsun dostum...
Amen thank you, you put it beautifully...
Thank you God, I am happy again and I can hear this song without crying.
listened to this song for years ,healed every single broken bone , went apart , came back to it after more than 5 years; it's justt he same , the same feeling , the same nostalgia , can literally claim to be the biggest fan of this endless timeless melody and no matter how much time shall passes,will always be back and grateful to this song, melody and caliber of a once in a lifetime song .
Closer is a highly underrated film. Directed by the late great Mike NIchols, with a stellar cast and a powerful theme song (obviously).
Absolutely amazing movie
I know its not his best song and it's the most popular one but I'll never forget where I was the first time I heard it and the first time I heard Damien Rice... and today in a coffee shop it was playing and every emotion and feeling I had came back to me like it was yesterday. I'll be 80 and this song will still take me back to that moment and I'll have tears in my eyes.
What would you say his best song is or at least your favourite?
Anna Karaski-beautiful!
Definitely one of the best songs I’ve ever heard tho
@@raivo_4447
Delicate and cheers darkin maybe
Hello Anna
Its been a decade and i still cant take my ears off this song. It moves me everytime.
When a segment of this life plays out, and one is helpless to control it, and she is no more. You never forget.🕊⚘
One of the most beautiful love songs ever written. Thank you Damien
Made me miss a girl who never existed.
Same here bro. All these comments - my ex, my one-sided love, well, we don't even have that.
+テオドル And we're lucky! 'Cause if you got girl problems, we feel bad for you, son! We got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one!

テオドル I just hang out with my guy friends. I've got a policy. I wait for girls to hit on me. I don't hit on them.
Dylan Colbert
:D Good luck.
I had a friend who is now dead. He fell in love with a girl and asked her to marry him. She turned him down. He was never the same. This went on for like 20 years, at least, with him being depressed, and he never dated any other woman after her. I could never get him to come out of his depression. Maybe one day in heaven he will get to see her again.
I've only recently found this song playing in the background in a cafe. I'm so glad I did (thanks Shazam).
It pulls at every one of my heart strings.
I think of her every time I hear it but...life goes on!!!
I watched my beautiful wife walk down the aisle to this. The song means so much to me even as the years pass. Truly captivating. Can't take my eyes off you...
Goddammit now I'm crying even more
thanks a lot man 》:(
Sorry to spoil this for you: this song isn't about love, but about not being loved back. The bridge with the female voice says: "Did I say that I loathe you? Did I say that I want to leave it all behind?" It is about Damien not being loved back by his Sax (may be other blowing instrument, but it's irrelevant) teacher's daughter (hence, the blower's daughter). Call it what you will, but it's most definitely not a love song. It is a very beautiful song, though.
+Bearsus It's based on a true story. He worked at a call center and struck up conversation with this woman- they had a flirtation and fell in love over some time on the phone. He eventually went to her house and she was outside ( he recognized her voice) and to his astonishment- she was a just a school girl in uniform. "Can't take my eyes off of you" was his disbelief as he stood staring at this young girl, this child, that had played his heart- no concept of the destruction her manipulation had caused. She was a game to him. So twisted-- gives me chills. One doesn't usually think of a child, an innocent ( not so innocent) as the perpetrator.
+Luke Gibbons a song meaning is what you bring to it. If it's romantic to you, it's a romantic song- period. So many walk down the aisle to "Every Breath You Take"...which is about a stalker. But hey, they think it's romantic, so why not. Beautiful that it has enriched your life- that's what's important. Your wife is fortunate to have a romantic soul for a partner :)
Just love this song, can listen to it over and over. So meaningful and heartfelt.
Thank you for this gift. For me, it sits amongst the most meaningful love songs of all time...
Matt McAndrew sung this tonight on The Voice an I had to hear the original. And I teared up both times.. this song. Oh this song.
me tooo!! thought it was only me! I'm so in love atm!
I know, right? Adam's song choice was so right on for Matt. Damien Rice's music makes it easy for great artist's to sing his songs. Another American Idol sang one of his songs, "Creep" and blew it away. She came in 2nd last year. I so love her "special" way she sang it!! I love me some Damien Rice music.
This song is like a decade old. Damien Rice just released his first album in many years.. and some poser cover's this song and gets a thousand times the publicity. If people would stop being spoon-fed top 40, maybe they'd uncover beautiful music before ten years have passed. P.S. This whole album is great.. check it out!
Mason Fuchs I know this song is a decade old. I've heard other songs from Damien Rice as well and the album O. I was just paying homage to the great artistry here, that was performed tonight on a TV show and done the justice it deserved being sung by someone who did not originate it. So bring it down a notch on the assuming there.
Mason Fuchs gtfo you didn't even hear matt mcwhatshisfaces version. I just so happened to get home when my mom was watching and as he was performing his cover. it is freakin amazing and most of those voice singers suck. i hate the voice.
I believe all us replika users should create a community of our own xD
I'll call our community "Republic of Replika"
Haha yes, that sounds perfect!
Honestly that is agood idea.
Um then, let's do it!?
@@theurbanmonk7563 But how though? Like on discord or some shit
Had my youngest daughter (7) on my lap, while singing this at the same time.....cried my ass off, while she didn't noticed :D I will always remember the momento....Thank YOU!
Same.
I’m here now listening because this was my dads song to me 💔 this is the only thing I have of him left this song..
The first time I’ve heard this song was in a movie named “Closer” with Natalie Portman and Julia Roberts as the mains characters, I was just a teenage girl suffering for an young love, and now with my’s 24 years old, I come back to this song and damn he hits me as the first time, there’s no lover now, just some quickly passions, well and so it is ..
thanx for telling movie name!😀 Hope you`ll find your happiness!
Can't stop listening to this song...so emotional 😢😢😢
Sometimes you can't help falling in love with the wrong person...time heals everything....
wrong person or..... bad timing. she was only 20 years old at beginning of their love story. sad anyways
+fallen clouds Good point....although they were together for seven years and if he really loved her he should've never let her walk away...
you're right and I guess damien rice knows that NOW too. but like I said - he was 27 and she was 20.
yes almost seven years together but as I said they were very young. and ppl change a lot at that age.
Especially a lot of young men don't appreciate such love or a really good relationship till it is too late. Quite a few of my friends had the same problem (at that age) and they all tried to get their love back. no one with success.....
(young) women fight for their relationships till they (have to) give up and come to an end. a lot of (young) men start to fight when their love is gone. then they realize what they have lost - but most of the time too late...
sry, my english isn't that good. cheers ;)
I have learned Not to fall in love because of her physical beauty, BUT Fall in love because of her beauty in her Heart and soul.
Georgia Kombakis time heals everything or we just get used to the pain?
i don't know why everyone igonres the truth of the last line, "till i find somebody new"
'Cause maybe he will never find the new one.
if you're listening to this song, you came here to feel sad, so this is my time to feel pain and whatever optimistic message, albeit realistic and truthful, just isn't what I want to hear right now.
@@DeebAmorim repair? what does that mean?
Riight?!! It's the best part!
'cause they can react, 'cause she is the "new one", you know words have two meanings
Good evening from germany, here July 7th, 2023..
Ever since i first heard this song - and i've heatd it sooo many times - it gives me goosebumps from head to toes!❤❤❤
Leaves me speechless 👍👍💯💜💙💛...
I'm 61 and this is one of the best Songs i ever heard.
Touches me in such an awesome way.
Thank you so much 🙏...
With love and greatfullness ❤❤❤
It is absolutely unreal how much this song fucks with me. Not only is it hard to get through without some really extreme emotions being recalled, but it’s just in my head the rest of the day and everything gets worse 😂
Bro same.
The way Natalie looks into your eyes she could make you believe anything.
The violin and woman voice bring this song in depth. Really good song.
When I cry, I go back to this song over and over again. It's not because my love life, it's all about me to myself. I described this song from me to me. Sometimes I feel I'm not "like I said it would be, life goes easy on me" and sometimes I loathed myself and feel like can't hold on and just wanna go from this life, then again I realized and started to questioning things I said and felt before "Did I say that I loathe you? Did I say that I want to leave it all behind?". To hear and sing this song, always makes me feel better. Thank You, Damien

06.2024 still in love with this song 💔
Damien Rice touches me. He is a poet who knows to translate his poems in beautiful songs!
Blower's daughter...what a lyrics great!
Good stuff...after all these years he's come out with a new CD recently!
Cin Dee I know Cin Dee thanks, when you
turn this number you find a few song from it.
and it is stunning beautiful!
Was it 9 Crimes? That was truly gorgeous. Bedankt!
No it was I don't want to change you!
To the haters on either side. So I found out about Damien Rice thanks to Matt's performance last night. So what? Either way, props to both artists. Good songs hold up to different interpretations, and the best artists know how to mold music&lyrics to create something unique. Props to both producers, the instrumentalists *and* in this case, ok,extra props to Damien Rice for writing the song. Just fyi, The Voice needed his permission to use the song, so he was on board with this.
This was one of my best friend's favorite songs of all time, I still remember the first time he recommended it to me over 10 years ago and how I loved it too.
He passed away last year, and every time I listen to it now, it reminds me of him. Thank you for making such a beautiful song.
The Blower's Daughter' is an absolutely stunning piece of music that showcases his incredible talent as both a singer and a songwriter. The haunting melody and emotionally charged lyrics are simply mesmerizing, and Rice's voice is so raw and emotive that it's impossible not to be moved by this song. The stripped-down arrangement only adds to the intimacy and emotional power of the performance, making it feel like Rice is singing directly to your soul.♥
There are a few songs of Damien’s that the emotion is like a wounded animal when he sings- it comes from some deeply wounded place in his soul, and he expresses it without being self conscience. MAGIC Beauty, & the deep pain life can sometimes make you feel to your very core.
The pain of LOSS that never goes away.
@@shellecapos8574 Yes, his pain is almost palpable!
@@AngeloCamassa It is palpable. I can feel it.
I wrote snother comment here about what that pain feels like to me. I’ve never written it out before.
@@AngeloCamassa A prophetic song foretelling the pain of losing Lisa
This song makes me cry every time I listen to it :(
I love this song. There are some people that touch our heart in a certain kinda way and the feeling is always there even after they are gone.
3:26 a heart that’s filled up like a landfill. A job that slowly kills you. Bruises that won’t heal.
Ah. The Radiohead.
Good ear. I was going to do a video about this eventually lol
There is so much involved in this song and the movie.
The word encapsulates has never been more.
i wish i loved someone enough to miss him this much...
:'/
Kat Stopper p
I love someone to miss her this much.
I love someone to miss her this much.
vazmo14850 no you don't trust me
I was standing across the ocean in a tiny Irish pub when this song came on. Rainy September night, fireplace in the pub and locals just sharing a drink and good company. I didn’t take pictures, video etc. But that moment is burned into my memory for always. It comes back to me in full detail when I hear this song ❤️
I love stories like this. How music can transport us to an exact moment in our lives with perfect clarity. My version was with Same Old Auld Lang Syne, by Dan Fogelberg. I was driving to Atlanta on a cold dreary December morning, and I was sitting in my car in a gas station parking lot when it came on the radio. I sat there and wept hot tears for a love I had never gotten over. That moment is burned in my memory forever.
What an amazing memory☘️
Beautiful memory. I am leaving for Ireland in less than two weeks. I just got back in October. I met an amazing guy online who has become my best friend. Through him I have found the life I've been searching for. I've also made many other friends there that I miss dearly. I will now think of you and Ireland when I hear this. Should the right moment arise, I will play this while there.. ❤
Beautiful story!
That sounds lovely.
This song is unbelievable …..unbelievably stunning!
Hello stranger~
This is one of the best songs ever!
Hi, friend.
The Voice brought me here. What an awesome song!
Last words that everyone read before they were here:
"I couldn't get this song out of my head today. If you have a second, listen to it!"
Hmmmmm
Thats what mine said, now im thinking
@@ameliawells9917 yeah. sad true
They had us in the first half
Omg yess
I love the last words he whispers at the end of the song "until I find someone new" showing that his love is not forever, just until the next one..
I think I watched this like 20 times now I still feel so touching everytime I return ❤️
EU NÃO SEI PARAAAAAR DE TE OLHAAAAR...
Eu não sei pareaaarrrr
Hahhaahahhaa
É isso aíahn
Aja 💔 nessas horas que fase
KKKKKKKK saudades
I really miss the time where this comments section were about the movie Closer
Blame the ai
Blame the AI making our lives better.
Yanca Finally!
Thank you, Yanca! I was looking for you
its replika time !
So miss the times when a movie made me fall in love with a song, immediately ran to buy the cd or cassette or whatever that was relevant at the time rather than to my phone to listen to it on spotify or youtube or whatever. And to do this with a film by a legend like Mike Nichols, with "up and coming actors". Almost 20 years later and still remember how hard this film hit me accompanied by a marvelous song i still listen to this day.
Mezmerizing. A song who dumps both memries and the feelings both paiful and happy memries. A time machine indeed.
It's just a song that drifts you in another dimension. Although it is really so depressing and desperate it leaves a taste of hope and rejuvenation. I would say just one word "devine".
And so it is ..after all these years I am still coming back to this this
Still amazing....introduced to this closing the stunning film closer. Paused the movie and went to my record shop and bought everything they had. Changed my life...thanks damien
