Default new song - Under the Tongue

this was in the Other music section, but I thought to post it here cos no one seemed to be spotting it there...

this is the thread http://www.facebook.com/l/2303c;eski...ad.php?t=16259

Damien has a newie called UNDER THE TONGUE featured in a soundtrack album called Music of Ireland together with lots of Irish artists (Glen, Sinead, etc)

The album is out Tomorrow (MARCH 2). For what I understand, you can buy the physical album only thru Barnes & Noble, while Amazon is the place to buy the download.

and there is a 30 sec clip on Amazon already, which is too damn short

There's 30-sec clips in a bunch of places already, and I'd say they're all slightly different:

Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ref=dm_dp_trk4

Music of Ireland:
http://www.brickhousedirect.com/musicofireland.htm

Barnes & Noble:

me too. i'm not nuts about the other songs, though.. sinead's is alright but i doubt i'll be buying the whole thing..

i love damien's song. his music stands out in a crowd as usual, even (especially?) among his fellow countrymen/women.

i'm definitely hitting amazon tomorrow

It's so frustrating that you have to be in the US to buy anything from the Amazon mp3 store!

surprisingly enough, I'm liking this song.... hmmm maybe the year long (or is it more)
Damien withdrawal has something to do with this. Or maybe its just a good song *Purchase*

Lyrics, anyone?

Under the Tongue

What are we doing here?
Why have we come?
Did we come for communion,
Under the tongue?

There's a lot
There's a lot
There's a lot to unfold
In the dark
In the dark
There's a lot we don't show

Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold

What are you doing here
Have you lost your way?
Have you come to move close, dear?
Is something to say? (?? not sure about this)

Cause there's a lot
There's a lot
There's a lot that's untold
This is not
This is not
This is not yours to hold

Cause your love leaves me cold
Cause your love leaves me cold
Cause your love leaves me cold
Cause your love

What am I doing here?
Is it something I've done?
If it's time for confession,
Then bring out the nun.

There's a lot
There's a lot
There's a lot I don't know
I forgot
I forgot
I forgot to let go, of your love

Don't leave me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me

Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold (repeat )



I'm curious about the female vocals... I wonder who they belong to? And the backing male vocals (I'd like to think they're Tomo's but are they even in touch?)

Awesome! A CD about music in Ireland! And here's the real kick, you can't even buy the thing if you live in Ireland!

^they should really fix it. I think it's idiotic that you can only buy the download thru Amazon US and the physical thru B&N

^^I think this part could be:
Have you come to move close,
There is something to say?

i have no clue about female vocal (but it doens´t seem that julia girl to me) and i think damien sings backing vocals himself. i´m listening at the end of the song... "your looooooooooooove" (jeez!).
thanks for the lyrics, shar

I do prefer when Damien sings higher, bit too low in here imho, but I think it's an amazing song. Loving the lyrics too.

But I see this as a one-off song that's not gonna be on album 3. I reckon it might have written especially for this compilation...

In fact I love all the newies we're getting recently. I think Damien is on top form. I do prefer What If I'm Wrong (Damien at his best) but this one is good too...

Thanks, good people!

I think those lyrics are all correct with two exceptions: First, I hear "So leave me cold" instead of "Don't leave me cold". Secondly, the line 'Is something to say' actually makes perfect sense if instead of with a question mark it ends with a period. Just as in the examples in the next stanzas ("This is not yours to hold" and "Then bring out the nun") it is not a continuation of the question in the line before it but rather a rebellious retort. Throughout the song he's both asking why they shouldn't be able to communicate what they really feel and challenging the notion that such emotions should make someone feel as guilty as if they've committed a sin and therefore need to beg forgiveness.

I like this one a lot and was amazed at just how massive the trademark Damo build-up was this time.

I'm apparently also the only one who loves it when Damo goes to the bottom of his register just as much as when he's at the top. There's something deeply primal and haunting which comes with that huskiness. They used to refer to only a select few Hollywood stars in the old days as possessing the necessary quality of "sex-threat" to play certain roles. I guess I'd describe it in him as the savage side of the wounded beast.

It sounds **** to me from the 30 second clip. I don't like Damien singing in that low register.

my first impression was the same. i'm absolutely sure that it's only the way the song starts. the ending should be brilliant as always.

I got high hope from amazon.co.uk so don't see the Damo song being any different.

Yeah, it's here for Europe: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Music-Irelan...7606205&sr=8-1
Edit: OK, apparently there are regional restrictions between UK and DK too, so it didn't work for me on amazon.co.uk after all

I don't think it's the crime of the century to post this song, it's only a single track and it's not like it's a charity album or anything.

Edit: link removed, fair point borneoman

I think it's a great track, not a Damo classic by any means, but great all the same.

^I'd stick to share via pm. Sharing mp3s of studio tracks is illegal and you could put Emmet in trouble
