Are these Damien songs?

TimeIsContagious · 05-25-2007, 08:51 PM

I found a bunch of songs here that were labeled as Damien Rice and I'm really not sure if they are damien songs...I couldn't find info on them anywhere in the site, maybe some of you guys can help! maybe some of these are covers??

here's the ones in particular:
Never been in this place before
Never (really questioning this one, doesn't really sound like damien...)
Closer
Oh Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz (sound like this one could be lisa)
Talking about a revolution
What the night is for
glory box

Thanks guys!

"Never Been In This Place Before" is "What The Night Is For", and it's a Damien song.

Damien sang "Never" when he was in Juniper, and it's since been released by Bell X1. Closer is a Damien song, and the rest are covers...

TimeIsContagious · 05-25-2007, 09:15 PM

thanks for your help guys. only one's we're not positive about are glory box, talking about a revolution (most likely a cover), and oh lord won't you buy me a mercedes benz

Closing_Doors · 05-25-2007, 09:27 PM

Like I said, they're all (pretty famous) covers.

Rue Saint-Denis · 05-25-2007, 09:31 PM

Those last three are all covers.

Glory Box is a song by Portishead from their album Dummy
Talkin' 'Bout A Revolution is a song by Tracy Chapman from her self-titled album
Mercedez-Benz is a song by Janis Joplin from her album Pearl

Hey! songs i uploaded!

i did some research for the ones i questioned, and some of them are obvious they are covers.. but a few i'm still unsure of, but i can tell u what i know...

Never been in this place before = What the night is for = yes it is damien rice,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMh-l41K5bw

Never (really questioning this one, doesn't really sound like damien...)
Never is a song he did in Juniper with his juniper band, it is damien on vocals... however, i do think it is a cover by juniper, not sure who the orignal is... he also has done this song with Gemma Hayes

Closer
This is a song that i'm not to sure about, but i'm fairly sure it is damien rice and lisa, it is most likely a cover and for a certain cause...

Oh Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz (sound like this one could be lisa)
Yes it is lisa, it's a cover as well...

Talking about a revolution
cover

glory box
it has been answered! cover!

I think it was only performed once at that Tsunami benefit gig. I can live with never hearing it again.

Gatsby · 05-27-2007, 03:13 PM

i quite like the song! and i think the version thats in that sharing folder isnt from the tsunami gig. there was alot more noise at that gig from what i remember.

Colbarr · 05-27-2007, 07:15 PM

Never was sung by Juniper and since released by Bellx1 as ''Eve, The apple of my eye'' with altered lyrics, dats all i know bout that particular song

ps, my first post in god knows how long, you guys.....Im Back haha

i know, i thought it sounded different too

yeah never is a juniper original, not a cover. it evolved into eve, the apple of my eye for bellx1 and cold water for damien. i think that was a live gig where they performed it with gemma hayes. i always thought it sounded like damien and paul were fighting over gemma by trying to outdo each other on vocals

it always amused me

there is a cover in that version, "you were always on my mind" by willie nelson
