Guys who cop a swagger and reside in life's seamy underbelly without ever removing their dark sunglasses. " |

Perhaps it's the pastoral nature of County Kildare where Damien Rice grew up or simply the luck of the Irish. Maybe he's just been dumped one too many times. Whatever it may be, those of us in search of satisfying songwriting can be thankful that something inspires Rice to create beautifully wistful songs perfect for the smitten and heartbroken alike. " |
