Not very often, a musician comes along who creates music
alive with quiet intensity, passion and sensitivity. Duncan
Sheik's style seems very much in vein with Vega, David
Sylvian and other luminaries. Wish I'd heard him years
ago...
In June 1996 Duncan Sheik released his debut album to
critical acclaim, garnering him a place on 'The Saint'

Review about Duncan Sheik A SONG THAT PIERCES THROUGH THE HEART | Reviewer: ERNEST BARCELONA
------ About the song Half-life performed by Duncan Sheik
HALF-LIFE is a thing of beauty. The first time i heard this was when my brother sang this song with his guitar. The song warms my heart each time I listen to it. Not only are the melodies captivating, but it never lacks creativity and musicianship. Listen to this in high volume to achieve the best listening experience!
The 1st time i heard this song is when i watch Val Kilmer's "The Saint". Yes indeed, this is one of OST. This lyric, i think it's more like loosing control of our feeling or ourself. There is (almost) no way forgetting someone the once we love (sincerly). The only one way out is, try find someone who is better than the last....
For me it's a great song writing (Music and Lyrics) and beautiful memories (1997)

Very nice soulful piece of work. Nice and easy to listen to and follow. I enjoy it very much.
All that he says in it, nobody could express in another way. The best way in forgetting someone is forget both selves! But, Who could?
