" You give me miles and miles of mountains, and I ask for the sea." Damn straight! What a poetic way of describing when love that was good goes bad....
i believe that line means that even tho she gives him this kind go love (mountains) and while it is not bad and all, it's just not what he wants, they both want different things hence he's asking for something else (the sea)
I'd just like to add my interpretation to the conversation. I think it is about love gone bad, but not because either person stopped caring or because they want the next thing. I think it's about two people who just cannot fulfill each others needs no matter how hard they try. Giving someone miles and miles of mountains seems to imply they are trying desperately to make their partner happy, but they ask for the sea, meaning they need something completely different than what is being offered. Even though what is being offered is actually quite a lot and probably requires a lot of effort and possibly even love, it just isn't what that person needs to be happy. I think that makes it even more tragic. It's not about someone losing interest in the relationship; it's about two people who keep trying and failing to make each other happy. Anyway, that's just my interpretation.
Well this is weird. This morning I heard this song for the first time in a long time and here you are commenting on my comment. There goes the rest of my day I guess
the best part of damien rice is that he doesn't write about love in the same fluffy way that most other singers do. he represents it in a really different light, which is something i really enjoy from him. when everyone else is singing about love more directly and really sexual, or just fluffed up... damien is singing about love when it's just raw and natural. there's no glam behind it and it's not done up. it's about the components of love and not just love itself, you know? he does it differently than everyone else. not just in the lyrical department, either. the strings and the piano are used a lot in his songs, and i admire it, because no matter what those two instruments will always be the most soothing for me instead of what i usually hear. i don't know i just really love damien rice thank you for reading this huge block of text tldr damien sings about love 'raw' rather than 'glam' and his use of instruments is calming. inb4 "pop is ok too sometimes" it sure is but i prefer this. have your own taste if you want
I've been noticing lately that the majority of my favorite songs have that same essence to them. That rawness you can't quite put your finger on...that really hits the feels. A lot of them also have cello & piano too, actually. Re Damien...I feel like he kinda lost a lot when Lisa Flannigan stopped working with him. Such incredible harmonies. Her voice is something really special, feels Ike it brought out the honesty & truth even more.
I agree!! Even the lyrics of Blowers Daughter, the last line is so surprising(for a love song) and raw "I can't take my mind My mind my mind 'Til I find somebody new"
+Andrew Park she is an alto. he is a tenor. they both ate amazing. but technically his range and pitch are more valuable. and he hits falsetto without a drop in vocal integrity. as a singer myself. I can attest to how hard that is to do. he's got a fantastic control over his voice. can be attained with enough practice by anyone with talent vocally, but most never get there. notice how when she goes high you can hear her volume drop, this is not on purpose or meant to be. it's because she struggles to get on top of the note. she's got a beautiful voice. Not saying she doesn't. but he is better.
+Thomas Wilton I'm not saying you're wrong but could part of that volume point be how he generally stays closer to the mic unless he's belting something out? I've noticed when she goes higher she pulls back or faces away in a lot of performances. Love both their voices, especially hers in Eskimo
Absolutely brilliant. Raw . Lisa has the voice of an angel. Stripped back. No drums or percussion Rice uses his voice as an additional instrument. This album has a very special place in my heart .
[Verse 1: Damien Rice] Don't hold yourself like that You'll hurt your knees Well I kissed your mouth and back But that's all I need Don't build your world around Volcanoes melt you down [Chorus: Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan] What I am to you is not real What I am to you, you do not need What I am to you is not what you mean to me You give me miles and miles of mountains And I'll ask for the sea [Verse 2: Lisa Hannigan] Don't throw yourself like that In front of me I kissed your mouth, your back Is that all you need?

[Bridge: Damien Rice] What I give to you Is just what I'm going through This is nothing new, no no Just another phase of finding What I really need Is what makes me bleed But like a new disease Lord, she's still too young to treat What I am to you (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) Is not real, (she's still too young) What I am to you, (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) You do not need (she's still too young) What I am to you (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) Is not real, (she's still too young) What I am to you, (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) You do not need (she's still too young) What I am to you (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) Is not real, (she's still too young) What I am to you, (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) You do not need (she's still too young) What I am to you (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) Is not real, (she's still too young) What I am to you, (oh she's still too young) (Volcanoes melt you down) You do not need (she's still too young) What I am to you (oh she's still too young) (I kissed your mouth) (Volcanoes melt you down) Is not real, (she's still too young) What I am to you, (oh she's still too young) (I kissed your mouth) (Volcanoes melt you down) You do not need (she's still too young) And what I am to you (oh she's still too young) (I kissed your mouth) (Volcanoes melt you down) Is not real, (she's still too young) What I am to you, (oh she's still too young) (I kissed your mouth) (Volcanoes melt you down) You do not need (she's still too young) You do not need me
Literally everyone but her is the one to me. You can say that about all the other people but you don't have the right to say that about the one person who is that one person.
+Shaheen Beeharry -- totally connected to the song... that is always what I aspire to in performance, and what it is that keeps me from being connected? They are perfection...
Then, you should expose everyone in your life with it at least once. Not everyone will like it. And that's OK. But if you introduce 100 people to a song that you love, and there's only one person likes it... then HELL YEAH... Mission Accomplished! There's that bond. They will always think about you when they hear it. They will play it for their other friends. One of them is likely to latch onto the song too. That's the beauty of how music works. MUSIC IS A TIME MACHINE!
I think they are deeply in love with each other. However, the difference in their age is creating different “needs” from both. I think it’s about maturity and ultimately letting her go..... because he realizes she has to live and experience life, so they can hopefully be on the same page some day. He doesn’t want to let her go, he does it for her. Love ❤️ this song
Or maybe they just weren’t right for each other? And it’s better she never looked back. Not everything is some fairytale love story where they end up finding their way back to each other.
In this song the girls trying to do everything to please the guy but whatever she does cant please him enough bc of her age and she just want to please him and she want him to love her but she what ever she does she still cant please him bc of how she is to young
I've been listening to Damien Rice for years here...and there! I describe him as the 'thinking man's melancholy' the songs Volcano. .9 C rimes...the Blower's daughter... Etc...are pure inner soul! They break me somehow, and then heal me! .
This still slays me after all these years. Such a powerful and evocative song. I wish a choreographer would create a dance set to this. I am so grateful to these artists for stirring up such strong emotion in me.
I'm 21 now and when I was younger my father listened to this music a lot and now I'm stuck listening to it today, I should thank my father for playing this in the car all the time even though I remember hating the music. :)
This album has been a huge part of my life since I was a baby, with my mother playing these songs to soothe me to sleep on restless nights. And it’s chilling, yet relaxed tones set me in such a pleasant mood, bringing me happy memories of childhood and how close to my heart this is.
Don't hold yourself like that You'll hurt your knees I kissed your mouth and back But that's all I need Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down What I am to you is not real What I am to you you do not need What I am to you is not what you mean to me You give me miles and miles of mountains And I'll ask for the sea Don't throw yourself like that In front of me I kissed your mouth your back Is that all you need?

Saw him live tonight at the Orpheum Theater and I have to say he was absolutely amazing. This song was soooo goood. Definitely need to see him live again. 😊😊👍👍
Such a beautiful song. I first heard this song it was way back in mid school. I had all but forgotten it, until the melody popped into my head and when I found it and heard it again, it really made me emotional. Thanks for this video.
Listening in 2020 after fighting addiction and suicidal tendencies, the pain hits more now than ever ....trying to reach out to another person who I love dearly , fighting the same fight I went through......don't fold
Been a while since I last listened to this song... I'm hitting the replay button over and over.... It still has the same effect on me that it always has.
absolutely gorgeous track - fab to hear it again -I remember it from when i bought the CD years ago - this song has not lost any of it's power and superb-ness
Lisa is sooo fuckn dope,this whole song is ill. Sick ass voices!!! I heard this in Best Buy yrs. ago,i had them go in the back. Almost 35 mins& some good customer service later. I was introduced to Damian Rice
I honestly don't have any clue how there are 400 people who didn't think this was amazing. I get if Its not you're style or something. But respect the talent before you. this is beautifully performed.
I'm here because Jayb Got7 ....this is his first CD that he bought...waw what a great taste for such a young man ...no wonder Jayb always making masterpiece on each of his song...
Wow! I saw you when you first played on Letterman, he my favorite to. The 3 of you blew my mind!!! The Cello and it just fkn works... Y'all Rock!!! Huge fan.. HM
To me this song is about someone suffering emotionally from past experiences or relationships, perhaps both. They're trying to tell a new love interest that they're feeling pressured by the expectations they've placed upon them. They're perhaps trying to warn them that they will get hurt, as they can't satisfy whatever is missing from the person's soul. This thing being deep pain from trauma perhaps. I suppose that's the beauty of art, we all interpret it in a different way .

Every once in a while I bump into this song by accident, and everytime I do I put it on replay for the rest of the day.
I bumped into a busker playing it. Went home and put it on replay and learned to play it myself :-)
Right!
15 years later and I'm still putting it on repeat...🎵🎶

it's almost like he sings about the failure to love, failing to live up to the ideal of love, his songs are honest.
Perfectly described why I love his music!!!

Can't decide whose voice is sexier. They both have me in a trance.

If I could make a blanket out of her voice, I'd never leave the house...

Most underrated musician of our time.
Musicians. Lisa Hannigan and the Cellist are amazing.
[Verse 1: Damien Rice]
Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
Well I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around
Volcanoes melt you down
[Chorus: Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan]
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you, you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea
[Verse 2: Lisa Hannigan]
Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth, your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around
Volcanoes melt me down
[Chorus: Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan]
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you, you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask . .
[Bridge: Damien Rice]
What I give to you
Is just what I'm going through
This is nothing new, no no
Just another phase of finding
What I really need
Is what makes me bleed
But like a new disease

Like a distant tree
Volcanoes melt me down
She's still too young
I kissed your mouth
You do not need me
This whole thing... perfect. This is the music that God himself listens to in the heavens.
Never a dry eye with a Damian Rice song. Such feeling
I am a volcano and
I can feel the rumblings
The buildup is oh, so intense
Holy Spirit grumblings
There's something BIG around the corner
There's something HUGE on it's way
More AMAZING than ever before
And i believe he's shown me that date!!!!
Dec is jam packed with awesome
Things we've never even imagined before
Blessings abounding on all of God's ppl
God's power like no one's ever seen before
God is oh, so good
When we're patient with his timing
God is more than good
Sing Hallelujah with his angels
Give praises to his Holy Name
Yajehovah, God of Mercy
Holy is his precious Name
Thank you Jesus
For your Holy Spirit
amen
No matter what, I always get back to Damien's music.. timeless
God I remember getting his album when I was a teenager and it was on repeat for about a year lol. Hes amazing.
This song is so beautiful. I can listen to it over and over and not get sick of it
Nobody else could do this as wonderfully as Damien Rice. This song moves my soul.
Saw him live tonight at the Orpheum Theater and I have to say he was absolutely amazing. This song was soooo goood. Definitely need to see him live again. 😊😊👍👍
This guy is on different level .. i dont know what he has in his mind when he’s writing all this ❤ 🥂 total class
So glad I remembered this song today you have no clue have happy it made me to hear this again. I love how music does that 🥰
100%
-What I am to you is not real - so true the fragile construction of love!
Such a beautiful song. I first heard this song it was way back in mid school. I had all but forgotten it, until the melody popped into my head and when I found it and heard it again, it really made me emotional. Thanks for this video.
This whole album changed my perspective on music
~ His voice is liquid. Flowing.
Listening in 2020 after fighting addiction and suicidal tendencies, the pain hits more now than ever ....trying to reach out to another person who I love dearly , fighting the same fight I went through......don't fold
His music certainly helped me through my addiction, good luck to you and I hope that you find that lost love that I never.✌🏻
Amen man I feel you 💯. Let us lift are head high and be the best we can be.
still listening to this song after years. will always have a special place in my heart
Been a while since I last listened to this song... I'm hitting the replay button over and over.... It still has the same effect on me that it always has.
i cant believe its been 6 years since 2009... time fucking flies...
Came out in 2003
It's actually 7...
+Adam smithintin did u ever think to look at when the comment was posted, it was 2015 that was 6 years
I couldn't agree more. funny how time fly's but it doesn't have wings. quaint.
kitkat miles but you realise now that its actually seven ?
this song is core memory
For me, there is no other voice like Lisa's. Just such a lovely sound.
Somehow im just now discovering Damien Rice, but defying all logic and the linear rules of time, he has influenced my music.
Currently happening to me also.
listening in Spring 2024 and it still gives me goosebumps! I could wake up to Ms. Hannigan voice for a lifetime!

So much harmony! The cello is beautiful! Beautiful song, Damien.
How did it take me 11 years to stumble across this artist? What the heck!!
Gorgeous song, filmed in a gorgeous space...! Thank you!!!!
Forgot how beautiful this song is.
Man, remember when it seemed like the universe was finally starting to catch on to good music like this?
They should give credit these two talented young ladies
I LOVE this video its AMAZING the singer has a LOVELY voice its amazing

Listening from Afghanistan 🇦🇫
Music doesn’t know borders. Great job man 👍🏻
One of the best artists in the world definition of a true artist
This song came out in 2002 when I was 12 . Now just turning 32 . It feels like an old friend.
What a beautiful combination. Love the lady's voice.
absolutely gorgeous track - fab to hear it again -I remember it from when i bought the CD years ago - this song has not lost any of it's power and superb-ness

holy shit. this is such an amazing performance. loved the harmonies.
i really love to play this song with all my heart and emotion such a great song in 2020
Favorite song off of O., one of the last good albums made. Great video to boot. Lisa Hannigan's voice is ethereal.
Haunting and hypnotic song
Lisa is sooo fuckn dope,this whole song is ill. Sick ass voices!!! I heard this in Best Buy yrs. ago,i had them go in the back. Almost 35 mins& some good customer service later. I was introduced to Damian Rice
I come back because in my heart this is gold.
I honestly don't have any clue how there are 400 people who didn't think this was amazing. I get if Its not you're style or something. But respect the talent before you. this is beautifully performed.
I'm here because Jayb Got7 ....this is his first CD that he bought...waw what a great taste for such a young man ...no wonder Jayb always making masterpiece on each of his song...
Just beautiful! A great pairing up!
Too bad they don't play together anymore:-(
Tonzie Norman Why not?!
I'm coming back to this after years of discovering it
It's like fine wine, getting better with time!
Or I guess it's the affect of Damien Rice
It’s been years and years since I’ve been graced with this art I once forgot, my heart is shook
LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
There's a good chance I've been listening to this song on a loop for the past 10 years and I can't seem to get enough to it.
This song is so beautiful 😍 melts my heart. I just want to cry. God.. the cello is one of my favorite instrument to listen too. So perfect
April 2021, and this still sounds super good. Hands down!
What I give to you is just what Im going through, this is nothing new, no, no just another phase of finding...
Wow! I saw you when you first played on Letterman, he my favorite to. The 3 of you blew my mind!!! The Cello and it just fkn works... Y'all Rock!!! Huge fan.. HM
This song is the most beautiful tune that I ever heard.
These two always always always blew me away.
She's the definition of beauty*-*
OH MY GOD THAT GIRL... searchable... Damien, nice song, great vid....OH MY GOD THAT GIRL
This is such a beautiful song.
To me this song is about someone suffering emotionally from past experiences or relationships, perhaps both. They're trying to tell a new love interest that they're feeling pressured by the expectations they've placed upon them. They're perhaps trying to warn them that they will get hurt, as they can't satisfy whatever is missing from the person's soul. This thing being deep pain from trauma perhaps.
I suppose that's the beauty of art, we all interpret it in a different way .
First time I'm hearing this song and artist. Came up as an ad on rumble and just 5 seconds and I needed to come and watch it. Beautiful 🥰
"you give me miles and miles of mountains and i'll ask for the sea"
