No one's daughter vs Love one's daughter

borneoman · 12-17-2006, 07:43 PM

Which is the right one in Volcano?? According to damienrice.com the right lyrics are "no one's daughter/allow me that"... here in the lyrics section is "love one's daughter"...

Being trying to carefully to the album version and some live ones too and I think Lisa sings "love" but not 100% sure...

anyone help?? thanks!!

You mean at 'Cold Water', and I'm 90% sure that this is "no one's daughter"

Gatsby · 12-17-2006, 08:02 PM

yeah cold water.

and it was originally "love one's daughter" but maybe its changed, he has changed quite a few of his lyrics over time.

i wouldnt worry too much about it

Timeé · 12-17-2006, 09:08 PM

its love ones daughter on the album i think.

you can definitely hear the 'l' sound.

borneoman · 12-17-2006, 09:12 PM

I can hear the 'v' so if you say you can hear the 'l' then it must be 'Love one's daughter'!!!!

robmcgrail · 12-17-2006, 09:15 PM

on the album version i hear no ones daughter. and thats what he has on his site. So... i dont see how there is really a debate on it.

Timeé · 12-17-2006, 09:21 PM

okay i know. there has been some dodginess over the lyrics on the website around here already... i dont take it as an ended debate.

when you think into it in Cold Water.

what are the other lyrics?

" .... ones daughter allow me that
And i cant let go of your hand
Lord can you hear me now
Lord can you hear me now
Lord can you hear me now
Or am i Lost
**************
for some people that may mean nothing but i think it leaves a certain pattern.

in my eyes at least 'love' makes more sense..but yeah, maybe its changed... I hear "love" on the album and some of the recordings.

maybe next time spamlet "bumps" into damien, he can ask!

Putin · 12-17-2006, 10:57 PM

i seriously hear 'loathe'

Nine · 12-17-2006, 11:25 PM

no ones.

katiejoey · 12-18-2006, 12:55 AM

i think it's love one's daughter. makes more sense but then again what sense does sense make anyways?

Spamlet · 12-18-2006, 03:33 AM

I disagree that love one's daughter makes more sense. Personally, I don't see how it makes any sense at all given what follows in the next line. I've always thought it was "no one's daughter: allow me that." In other words, "I'm not defined by who my parents are".

1mug · 12-18-2006, 04:56 AM

how about "know one's daughter"

haha, just a thought.

that could work, right?

personally, i think it's "love." i hear the L, and the V.

Lin@ · 12-18-2006, 09:30 AM

I don't think that it's "love" because of the "o"-sound. It really sounds almost like "loathe"... I don't really hear a "v". And "l" and "n" are quite close so maybe that's why some of us hear the "l". But "love" doesn't make sense to me. So it must be "no one's daughter".

DRQuebec · 12-18-2006, 03:33 PM

I'm hearing "Immaculate breakfast one's daughter", am I wrong?

ste_swann · 12-18-2006, 04:01 PM

Nah, it's definitely as you say, I hear it too

No, really, in the album it's definitely "love"

emmy · 12-18-2006, 08:45 PM

I've always thought it was a reference to Blower's Daughter - you know, kind of like she's saying "I'm not that girl and I never will be".

Of course, I have no idea if this makes chronological sense as I'm not sure which was written first.

When I sing along at the top of my lungs in my car I definitely sing "No one's daughter, allow me that"

I always thought it was "No ones daughter", makes more sense to me at least.
It "crossfades" with Damo singing "lost" - maybe that's why the "no" sounds a little like "love"?

Damn, that's a lot of ""
