I think this is one of James Blunt's better songs.

This is what I hear

uhm, it doesn't have huge impact on me like My fav faded away

does anyone else fear the album is going to sound too overproduced? I suppose that's what happens when you hire a known producer.
Anyway, really looking forward to these new songs, I think they will sound better live. To be fair that happens with a lot of bands and artists for me. |

So, what are the odds that of the nine songs we know we will hear, any single one of isn't seemingly about Lisa?
We're already 2/2. |
I was listening to the Ben Howard show and Damien's new track was actually played right before the show started :)
Edit: Sorry, I managed to skip whole two pages of answers. Only then I found there was no need for my comment. |
i don't get the meaning of "Water races" and "Down the waterfall"
|
I think the more confusing part is looking in a stranger's eye and seeing danger surrounding a manger.

I LOVE this song. Beautiful.

I know. But I thought it was worth mentioning anyways :) |
you were damn right ;)

You think they'll be sending those who pre-ordered it a link to download the single?

I like it well enough. In some ways I prefer it to the radio version of My Favourite Faded Fantasy, since it sounds a bit more like traditional damien rice. I still like the sound of the Faded Fantasy Youtube clip the best.
You can definitely hear the over-production in these songs, there's no reason to put Rick Rubin with Damien Rice (other than that Damien wanted to, apparently)...he often ruins people's distinct sounds. Part of Damien's sound, I think, was the rawness, the frailty and the idea that you might just be listening to a band performing in pub or a rehearsal. That part of the sounds seems to be missing, for the most part. Looking forward to see what else the album has to offer though. |

I guess it's the downside of Damien being such a perfect performer! |
I don't hear it OVER produced at ALL. I think the production for both songs so far have been spot on. They are beautifully crafted.
|
i am far from having a reason, but i think damien needed it to be "overproduced", if so... it seems to me he was kind of looking for it... and he might like it, that's why the album will be finally out, after all the "working on it, quiting it, working on it, quiting it"... just my humble opinion though.
|
I love the new sound. Reminds me of summer 2007. Not overproduced at all. The wall of strings is incredibly powerful.
|
not totally sold on this one yet, sounds almost "too nice", and the lyrics donīt blow my mind like previous ones... but maybe itīs a grower, I donīt know, maybe my expectations were too high but I really think MFFF is a much better song both lyrically and musically... and same for the other four Iīve heard live versions of (Bastard, The Box, Trusty & True and Long Way)
but again I didnīt like MFFF in the beginning and now I think itīs the best song ever, and especially the falsetto version :D |

but Long Long Way Iīd say no, and Trusty & True not either The Box Iīd say also not |

As for this song's 'water' section: the idea is that there is an inevitability to the sweep of nature. You do not get to decide who you will fall in love with any more than the water gets to choose its being a slave to gravity. |
