    ------ About the song Woman Like A Man performed by Damien Rice

This song is so ahead of its time, sorry for the cliche but it defly expresses a higher subconsciousness and wisdom of how both sexes are conflicted by the promotion of maleness, to the severe detriment of the power of the feminine mystique. Gawd, he is humble enough to openly admit how much of an @#%hole he has been in past relationships, this song's chord is piercingly honest and sensitive and as with many of his other songs, all one can say is {WOW} and press PLAY again. Is there anyone else out there that needs therapy like I do? From the repetetive song playing by DR? ? I have been listening to him since 2007, and as the 80'S song goes, I just cant get enough!

    ------ About the song Eskimo performed by Damien Rice

This song gaves me strenght after 2012-12-17 after an accident with my bycicle and a car that droves through a red trafficlight.
To hear this song after the accident I say it before, i can let go this traumatic happens and makes me stronger, I like a lot of
music but this song, Wonderful, that Cello and the Opera singer.

    ------ About the song Delicate performed by Damien Rice

Alright, I know this is going to sound weird and incredibly complicated on lyrics that look plain obvious but I've always read them in a totally different way...
To me (and I'm not saying this happened to Damien Rice, I just saw it that way), it's about a couple and the girl dies. This song is the guy talking to her and also to everybody else who doesn't exactly understand his grief because nobody loved her as much as he did.
He still meets her, he remembers their moments of love and passion and he knows he must do that privatly or he will be considered insane. They only "meet" in his grieving imagination, the "sacred place" because the issue is so "delicate".
As for everybody else who's grieving her death, it seems fake to him because he was the only one who really loved her: "why'd you sing hallelujah If it means nothing to you?" He'd rather nobody did that, since it is fake and that everybody would let him grief alone: "Why'd you sing with me at all?"
I know it is far-fetched and crazy, but that's just how I first saw it...

    ------ About the song Grey Room performed by Damien Rice

In my opinion this song I just the picture it is a man, who sees everything as dull. But because he is trapped within the world in his head, the room represents his struggle to break down the walls. But he doesn't see the point as he has what he needs but he needs his girl friend to put the colour back into everything he sees as ordinary :). & the very thought of her makes him happier but needs her for the colour

    ------ About the song Me, My Yoke And I performed by Damien Rice

I think that instead of fighting about the meaning of the lyrics, we should just honor what Damien is trying to say overall. Love, and all its meanings are different for everyone, just love what you know.

    ------ About the song Volcano performed by Damien Rice

    ------ About the song Silent Night performed by Damien Rice

I love this song. It came on as a hidden track. It reminds me of the night I looked up at the star lit sky after returning home after a week in hospital praying that our newborn son would pull through but had to turn his machines off. As my husband and I sat outside in silence and shock on that moonlit night there was nothing to say. But this version sure reminds me of that moment paused in time x

    ------ About the song Cold Water performed by Damien Rice

I love this song! I too think that it is about our journey in life, and that no matter how alone we feel we are never truly alone. God is always there holding our hand through everything. Damien Rice, you are a lyrical genius!

    ------ About the song Prague performed by Damien Rice

I have never heard ANY singer sing with such raw understated emotion as Damien Rice does on this song. BTW he isn't singing about war, he is singing about love lost. His arrangement for this song is just jaw dropping beautiful. My absolutely favorite part is the distortion.. that is some tear your heart out raw singing right there. I loved it. It was my privilege to listen to it.
