Damien's saddest song??
someone was asking me now... what do you think it's Damien's saddest song???
not sure... was thinking that for me it's probably Fool... the combination of sad lyrics, the way Damien sings plus the cello makes it the saddest to me what do you all reckon? |
Accidental Babies is my choice.
|
cold water
although after watching this I think I am sadder about what once was than what the song does to me! |
Cheers, Darlin' is pretty damned bleak, innit?
|
So so many for me:
Accidental Babies, the very, very last "Do you feeeeel...like you...belong?", and "What about me?" before Vyvienne's cello part 9 Crimes ending, especially whenever he cries out "no" until his voice gets hoarse Is That It My Friend, the "I'm all I'm alright" part Old Tomatoes leading into Delicate I wonder just how much Damien wallows in his own self-pity and depression...it's hard enough to take it just as listeners |
Just realised this also could be a contender for saddest Damo song... Forgotten Deers!! :)
I wonder, where do deers go to be forgotten?? ;) |
for me, Accidental Babies for sure
|
baby sister!
|
Either "Accidental Babies" or "Dogs."
I mean, "Dogs" starts out happy, but then by the end the "and there's no need for me" gets me every time. |

i still havenīt decided which is is the saddest song yet, but i sort of agree with every one posted so far. |
What about Lonely Soldier?
|
you're right about the last line in Dogs changing the meaning... love those one-lines that he adds at the very end of songs... it's a bit like 'And You Know it's a Lie' in Elephant...
was thinking that Then Go is a pretty sad one too!! |
my vote goes for "Is that it my friend" and an older song: "Orchard".
|
I have to say "Forgotten deers".
|
Insane.. or Prague.
|

I believe Orchard was written by Dave Geraghty or maybe Paul Noonan...but I dont want to get into a 'royalty' arguement here lol |
yeah they are all up there but i would have to go with insane, "i guess im no good, i guess im insane"

Mood Mooday. Sad in SO many ways.
|
Accidental Babies and Insane do it for me. I especially like the live version of Accidental Babies with the long piano ending, the cello and Damien asking '...what about me...!'

"Im all wrapped up in you Im all wrapped up in him too." yet magic at the same time. i recently discovered the chords behind the main guitar (sorry, i donīt know how to explain it, not even in spanish :p) and i absolutely surrendered to this song... and to damienīs talent. |
love the line in Prague that goes "I could wait for you/Like that hole in your boot/Waiting to be fixed"!!!
|
Ooh, yeah, Prague is wonderfully depressing too.
|
"wonderfully depressing" - isn't that just the quintessential Damo description?
Thinking on this some more, I remember feeling horribly depressed/simultaneously inspired the first time I heard "Wild and Free" (if that's what we're still calling it.) Maybe it was a situational thing because we hadn't heard much from him in awhile, or maybe it was because I felt guilty after hearing it for wanting so much new music, but agh. For what it's worth, "Everything I'm Not Supposed To Be" that he wrote/sang with Melanie Laurent is also pretty sad. |
