His songs revolve around familiar, bittersweet concerns of life, love, and their attendant frustrations, but delivered with conspiratorial intimacy on melodic wings (like on the graceful "Cannonball") that Rice seems almost embarrassed to share. If there's anything like a template here, it's "The Blower's Daughter," the song that first attracted the interest/stewardship of film composer David Arnold (whose guest production provides "Amie" with expansive cinematic elegance) and became a massive Irish hit. His plaintive vocal, embroidered by the mournful solo cello of Vyvienne Long, is suddenly brightened by an instrumental flourish and Lisa Hannigan's vocals--before just as quickly wafting on the breeze. With touches that range from "Day in the Life"-styled string collages to the dizzy, exhilarating neo-operatic excesses of the 16-minute "Eskimo," Rice's musical palate here is as adventurous as his songs are grounded in emotional intimacy. --Jerry McCulley Review: Great album, Damian Rice is so talented and this is a great press - It's nice to have an album that you can play from start to finish and it doesn't disrupt the house too much, great calm background. I've seen him in concert and it's amazing what he can do with some loops and one guy on many instruments--so many talents!

I've seen him in concert and it's amazing what he can do with some loops and one guy on many instruments--so many talents! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As advertised *by A***R on October 17, 2025* As advertised ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can't find the words *by A***R on June 9, 2004* I bought this CD without ever having heard a track or anything about it. I only bought it because it kept coming up on my recommendation list from Amazon. I buy a lot of cd's and it is not unusual for me to give them a quick listen and then despite my best intentions, never listen to them again. I popped this into my computer early on a Saturday morning when I was alone, put on the headphones, and started to visit some web sites. Almost immediately I stopped thinking about anything but the music. This guy was reaching into my soul. All that I wanted to do was listen intently. This is going to sound like an odd comparison, but the last time I felt this way about an album was the first time I heard "Dark Side of the Moon". On the very first listen everything seemed to fit perfectly together. The songs connect to each other in such a unique and subtle fashion. Since that first listen I have put this CD in my car and have listened to it on my commute to and from work every day. I find myself driving slower or taking the long way so I can hear all of the songs. When I wake up in the morning I start thinking about when my first chance will be to listen to it. This CD is certainly not for everybody. Those of you that like artists like Ryan Adams, Leonard Cohen, Rufus Wainwright or some of the others mentioned in other reviews will not be dissapointed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/9870337-o](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/9870337-o) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
