What an amazing album this is! A friend burned a copy from me based on how much I like his new single "Cannonball".
It's so simply produced that his voice, the lyrics and heartbreaking melodies really shine through. And eventhough the production is generally stripped down the songs tend to swell into these gorgeously orchestrated pieces with strings. Truly good good stuff. It's really beautiful music. My favorites aside from "Cannonball" are "Delicate", "Volcano", "The Blower's Daughter" and "Amie".

I heard "Volcano" a few times last fall. VH1 was pushing him on "Inside Track", but it never went anywhere on radio except Triple A (didn't make a top 15 peak, but finished #81 on the year-end chart).

Yeah, Damien Rice is very good. Glad you like him, too.
Thanks, Ben

I saw the video quite a few times on VH1. Not a bad song, but I didn't have enough interest to check out the entire album.
