i was sitting on the bus today and a couple of gigling school girls got on the bus and sat behind me


i heard the usual crap talk that you try so hard to ignore but u crave to hear more!


then all of a sudden they all start talking about damien rice and how great he is... only 6 months ago i was begging for people to know who he was and now he is commericialised some appeal has gone... like the secret is out now and the world is gonna share our feelings and passions for his songs


i cant help but be annoyed by this as its happening constantly now


even my parents like him ffs!!!

Whats the problem?! This always happens with artists!



I can assure you that I was one of the first ppl who liked the stereophonics and travis before they made it big (just shows you how crap they are now!).



Lets all bee thankfull that Damien is now having the chance to let his music be heard by all. If I get on the bus and here giggling school girls talk of his music then I will probably turn around and smile.



Just be proud that you were there first, as I can assure you that when he hits the big time, you'll love him even more

Hi, im probably one of the last people you wnat to talk to becuase i only discovered damein rice last week and i could fit into the schoolgirl catagory, but i just want to say i have been sooo bleesed to have discoverd damien, i only wish i had heard about him earlier, i have missed so many great gigs and its eating me up but it doesnt matter if someone heard him years ago or just discovered him the important thing is that a talent like that is not hidden, he deserves to be known he is the best singer/songwriter i have heard in years, his songs simply make my spine tingle! ye will always be the people whoknew him first take pride in that i only wish i could say the same for myself,a new fan, Rice_Crispy*

He hasn't hit it big in America, and I don't think he will for some time, if ever. I'm getting a few of my friends into him, but his music is very hard to find over here. So I guess if his success bothers you, you can just come over to the US. <img border="0" src= "smileys/smiley1.gif">


Just out of curiosity, how commercial is Damien Rice over across the seas now?
