Damien rice O

黃色昏暗的燈光底下
書屋裡
播著這碟子..

很有味道的旋律
沉醉的歌詞
寫得很好

以首張專輯「O」在全球創下1500萬張銷售量，在英國專輯榜停留80週，並獲得全英音樂獎最佳國際性男歌手提名的愛爾蘭創作男歌手Damien Rice，於2004年拜訪緬甸後，與專輯負責合聲的Lisa Hannigan共同譜寫獻給翁山蘇姬的”Unplayed Piano”，是為支持在翁山蘇姬60歲生日當天(6/19)能被釋放的活動　[Free Aung San Suu Kyi 60th Birthday Campaign]　所做的主題歌(緬甸人權精神領袖翁山蘇姬是全球唯一還被監禁的諾貝爾和平獎受獎人)，同時單曲唱片的收入也會直接用來支持US Campaign for Burma和Burma Campaign UK這2個組織。

My favor: unplayed piano, The Blower's Daughter, Silent Night, older chests, cannonball...

Damien Rice


lycis of cannonball


there's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
there's still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
it's still a little hard to say what's going on
there's still a little bit of your ghost your witness
there's still a little piece of your face i haven't kissed
you step a little closer to me
still i can't see what's going on
stones taught me to fly
love taught me to lie
life taught me to die
so it's not hard to fall
when you float like a cannonball
there's still a little bit of your song in my ear
there's still a little bit of your words i long to hear
you step a little closer each day
so close that i can't see what's going on
stones taught me to fly
love taught me to lie
life taught me to die
so it's not hard to fall
when you float like a cannon
stones taught me to fly
love taught me to cry
so come on courage
teach me to be shy
'cause it's not hard to fall
and i don't want to scare her
it's not hard to fall
and i don't wanna lose
it's not hard to grow
when you know that you just don't know
