.....tell me your favorite line’s’?

northstar · 03-10-2004, 05:20 PM

It's probably been asked so many times, butI wasjust wondered...what's your favourite lines byDamien Rice ?

For me, as I'm sure it is for so many, there are lots of lines of lyrics that are so meaningful, but I love...

Cold, Cold water surrounds me now, and all I've got, is you hand

[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

oh...also.........and so it is

the words are so simple they almost seem to mean nothing but blowers daughter is so relavant, and in realising my senario was going nowhere...i remember using those words[img]smileys/smiley18.gif[/img]ooch!

"I wanna hear what you have to say about me"

Lemonhead · 03-10-2004, 05:28 PM

emm, actually, one is probably 'read me your favourite line', i dunno... it's sweet![img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]and 'still a little bit of your face i haven't kissed...'

dammit, there's too many! i could be here forever![img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

Hendrik · 03-10-2004, 05:37 PM

Patricia, don't hold yourself like that, you'll hurt your knees! [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img] [img]smileys/smiley32.gif[/img]

Just for its pure simplicity "I can't take my eyes off of you" is one I like a lot. I'll come back later with more.

"And I, die, when you mention his name
And I lied, I should have kissed you
When we were running in the rain"

julia · 03-10-2004, 08:52 PM

I wanna live, don't wanna die, wanna grow old with you
I wanna be the only one that you know
'Cause I adore you

My love, my life, my work, my time
I give them all to you

And I agree, All of DELICATE [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

To name just a few..

By the way what is the paper machet reference about?

Martini · 03-10-2004, 10:26 PM

I've got so much beauty around me I can't move
I've got so much beauty around me I can't lose
I've got so much beauty around me I can't choose
I've got so much beauty around me, around you

so pretty i could cry! ([img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img])

administrator · 03-10-2004, 11:11 PM

ooh that's a good one martini... i hope that gets released as a single one day... love that song...

and the lyrics to delicate

and the lyrics to front door...

and... "loving is fine if you have plenty of time for walking on stilts at the edge of your mind"

the professor · 03-10-2004, 11:23 PM

the paper mache reference i think means that its a mix of emotions, since paper mache is a mix of different paper and glue and all that.

and as formy favourite line...all of 'then go'

concetta · 03-10-2004, 11:29 PM

it's difficult choose .."It's not hard to grow when you know that you just don't know"

is one of my favourites line

Emmett, that is one of my ultimate favourites!! Ultimate. Love it.

"I'm just another soldier on a road to nowhere." For all those days when you feel like you're not going anywhere and never will. Just to know you're not a lone. =D

And o' course: "It's not hard to fall, when you float like a Cannonball." A Damo classic. =D

greenlee · 03-11-2004, 12:33 AM

"you know when you've found it, theres something i've learned, cause you feel it, when they take it away"

It reminds me of my dad

idiosynful · 03-11-2004, 12:39 AM

You need a hug greenlee.

i think that "you give me miles and miles of mountains and I ask for the sea" is very clever and typically relevant in a relationship.

Illusions · 03-11-2004, 05:48 AM

what i am to you
is not real
what i am to you
you do not need
what i am to you
is not what you mean to me

-my favorite lines

Uno- X · 03-11-2004, 07:21 AM

Did i say that I loathe you
Did I say that i want to just leave it all behind...

class lyrics

and the lyrics to face too.

hippy shakes · 03-11-2004, 08:27 AM

I love the way he sings "can't keep my eyes off of you" Such a simple lyric with the biggest impact. If I had a girlfriend that would be the line I would serenade her with.[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

paudy · 03-11-2004, 08:51 AM

"cried when she should and she laughed when she could"

it's not that i like people cryin it just always stands out for me

marina · 03-11-2004, 09:11 AM

this is a real toughie!!

(ok all of) face - I wanna live dont wanna die I wanna grow old with you.....I wanna be the only one that you know, cause I adore you)

blowers daughter - I cant take my mind off of you

lonelily - its one thing if you cheated but you took him all the way to your bed...and you let me down

volcano - what I am to you...you do not need

delicate - (just that word!)

Volcano · 03-11-2004, 09:14 AM

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If u dont shoot it how am i supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with u?

Uno- X · 03-11-2004, 10:43 AM

what a pervy choice Volcano!!!

marymac · 03-11-2004, 12:49 PM

The first section of 'I Remember'. Mostly because its quite close to how I got asked to my first DR concert

I remember it well, the first time that Isaw, your head round the door...

Louise · 03-11-2004, 01:08 PM

...and mine stopped working... thats one of my favourites too. also "you know when you've found it, thats something I've learned cause you feel it when they take it away..." all of it really!

paudy · 03-11-2004, 01:12 PM

i cant belive what i've found

Louise · 03-11-2004, 01:13 PM

aw yeah...this thread is making me feel all melty. [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

marymac · 03-11-2004, 01:24 PM

Yeah...

Its bad that I Remember went on repeat when my fella was on placement. So so bad and soppy. [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

Bumpman · 03-11-2004, 03:37 PM

"no love, no glory, no hero in her sky"... that gets over looked dosent it?

I also like "tiredness fuels empty thoughts" because it's probably the most relevant thing he says on the album...

"Read me your favourite line"... now that's good
