I think he also did The Professor/Babylon in a show in Dublin, from Dec but cannot remember the year, 2003 or 2004... he plays 1 min of Babylon in the mid of the Professor and then he says something like "thanks David Gray for opening the door to singer songwriters"... anyone?

I think I also have Billy Jean somewhere, which is just Tomo by the way...

And he seriously did Asereje????????? Never heard that before!!!! Anyone has it?? or any info on when/where he played it?????

Same for Linger (The Cranberries). I looooooooooove the song, would kill to her Damien's version!!!!

Yeah. Great show too (was lucky enough to scrounge a ticket for it), they also covered Play Dead and Kid's Song that night.

^The bootleg of this show was being sold on e-bay as "Remember December", a friend of mine bought it a while ago, but the quality is not that that good.

But seriously, did he really do Asereje, the song by Las Ketchup???????????????????????????? Any info??

^Yes, he did. That's the version I uploaded, but I'd love to hear him sing it on his own...

I just found out that the Lisdoonvarna cover is actually a mix of the LL Cool J Song "I Need Love" and Christy Moores "Lisdoonvarna".

The lyrics to the version Damien is singing are...

When Im alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call
Telling me I need a girl whos as sweet as a dove
For the first time in my life, I see I need love
There I was giggling about the games
That I had played with many hearts, and Im not saying no names
Then the thought occured, look what youve done to her
look what youve done to her

Oh, Lisdoonvarna
Lisdoon, Lisdoon, Lisdoon, Lisdoonvarna!

I just added:
A reggae version of Volcano that goes into Walking on the Moon (Police cover)
Last Goodbye (though, I think it's only Glen and Lisa on vocals - and Colm being heartbreakingly beautiful on the violin)
Don't Explain (Lisa solo)


Thanks Maria (and everyone else! )

Lisa's Don't Explain is on Tomo's myspace. She did it when I saw her play the Olympia with the "Daisy Okell Quartet" back in 2005, which is where the recording is taken from.

Maria - sorry I forgot to upload 'twist and shout'...it's up now!!!
Thanks everyone for uploading!!!

And about 'Cool Like Water'....the song was mislabeled and is actually a Leonard Cohen song called 'The Guests'. It is sung by Emmett Tinley and Lisa.There is a recording on youtube of it...

^Your Welcome ,there were loads of songs that I haven't heard before either...

Does anyone know who is singing with Lisa on the 'Gently Johnny' Song. It's such a beautiful song, but the quality is not very good...
Does anyone have a better version or knows how to improve the sound a little...the same with Kid's song and some others...?

It's not a very sophisticated fix, but if you're using iTunes then there's a way to boost the volume:

Right click on the song > Get Info > Options > Volume Adjustment

It works fairly well for me...

And yeah, the Lisa solo one was from Tomo's Myspace. There's a cover of Grandma's Hands (originally by Bill Withers) up there as well. I added it to our folder.
