I actually really like Everything You're Not Supposed To Be. Haven't had time to check out the other one yet, but I really like the sound of this one. It's super catchy and while she may not have have the best voice, I don't think it's bad and certainly not unpleasant to listen to.

I actually liked it quite a bit! Up through 2007 I listened to nothing but Damien and became a little burned out, and needed to switch it up a bit. The new music that he has put out since then, along with my favorites up through 2007, are just in a class of their own. Nothing tops Damien, and this tune is no exception. I was just talking to my fiance about how we should plan a trip to Europe in the next few years and schedule it around a show in Cork. Maybe we are dreaming, but still!

^ indeed. damien looks like a little dissapointed child who didn´t get what he wanted to me, he.
here´s the lyrics, according to a google alert i got Et tu reviens Reprendre ta place Je connais ce regard Je connais ce regard Et tu me dis Que tu sais tout Que tu regrettes Le temps sans nous You fall on me Like firewood Just like you should Just like you should But it's too late I'm no longer full Just uncomfortable Uncomfortable It's just like me Mais c'est trop tard To let you down Et c'est sans moi To walk away Je te regarde To fool around Vouloir ma main It's just like you Mais c'est sans moi To cry like this Tu l'as perdue Into the cracks Au moins cent fois

I have to agree with you here, I feel quite the same. I dont mind him doing this stuff, but.... I dont need to listen to it just because it's Damien

hmmm, I have saved the links to listen to later, but I can't bring myself to listen to them lately because I miss his old music and don't think Melanie is a good match for him. But I guess I will give it a chance soon. And I haven't watched Honeyfest because I feel like 'Oh, he's performing THOSE songs again.'
I hate to sound like this, but I am very busy and feel like, ok, he's got something new, great. Thanks for sharing. I'll listen eventually, over a course of a few years there may be enough songs sporadically released into different projects that it may feel like a new album only without so many appearances and tours.

The songs aren't that bad, after a few passes I'm starting to enjoy them more.
I guess I'm just a sucker for Damien, so I'll take whatever i can get...

I finally listened to Everything your not supposed to be. I liked it for the first 2.5 minutes but didn't after that, too much jumbled noise. I have no problem with Melanie's voice, I think it flows well with Damien's in this song. It was mainly too much instrumental music.
However in Uncomfortable, I loved the instrumentals but I didn't like her voice until about 2 minutes into it. It is very different from Damien, but then again, this isn't Damien. This could be just Melanie's sound and style that he contributed to. I still love the new one 'Wild and Free' but don't foresee a new album anytime soon. He seems to want to collaborate and help others musically instead of doing his own thing. Whatever makes ya happy, Damo! Keep Rockin!

The other day I realised that while 'Everything you're not supposed to be' might not be his best musically... the lyrics are unbelievable amazing and really deep and heartbreaking and beatiful!!!!!!!!!! especially this part...
I feel trapped and alone, I thank God you are gone... I sleep better now... I feel free and I see what you are without me... I'm alive again... I only wanted you to know that I never wanted you to go... I know I was everything you're not supposed to be to someone that you love...
