    Omg Damian... I was looking for the meaning of part of me on RUclips, but found far more. Next time I see you at a show I'll give you a hug with this picture of you in my mind. And it does make sense what you are saying. #hug

    An angel's voice, now we know why...
    Around twelve years ago, I was going through a very hard time. One of the few things that helped me was Damian's music. I am not a native english speaker, and by that time (I was barely 22-23 years old), my english was bad, so I needed the lyrics of his songs to follow them properly (by the way, that music was downloaded... I'm sorry Damian, there was no way to find your albums in Chile...). So I mailed him, asking for the lyrics, and explaining the reasons. Probably his manager or some PR answered me that, had I bought the albums, I should have those lyrics, so... Bad news for me. A couple of days after that, I received a new mail. This time, it was Damian himself. I'm not quite sure; I think he couldn't send me the lyrics, but he wrote me some words that, at some extent, I believe helped me deeply. I have always remembered that little story, and the people that truly know me (and have had the chance to follow me on some of the music i listen to) have heard of it. From then and on, I always had the greatest opinion about this fellow. I've even had a couple of dream in the past decade about having the chance to see him playing alive, and even befriending him. I have kept following his music and its still strong with me. Seeing this (interview?) really makes the case. Now I know I was right about him. In some strange and distant (not weirdo) way, this guy is part of me. This music is one of the pillars of the soundtrack of my life. I just wish you outlive me, don't really wanna run out of what you make.

      puta que lindo compadre, como es que la musica conecta gente de una manera impensada, toca fibras super intimas y crea lazos que uno jamás imaginaría. Lo de Damian es excepcional, es magia pura lo que provoca, lirica y musicalmente.

      @@ConchetuMan Vale compipa... La verda es heavy como uno puede crear "lazos" con gente que nunca conociste pero bueno... la pregunta es si hay algo mas que conocer de alguien que su musica mas profunda. Tal vez tenga amigos de la vida (grandes amigos) de los cuales sepa menos que de Damian. No todo el mundo tiene la capacidad de expresarse tan abierta y transparentemente, y tal vez uno no siempre tiene la capacidad de escuchar. Pero si, para mi al menos, pura magia. Probablemente para mi funeral habra su buen par de canciones de este gallo, y Part of Me sin duda es una de ellas...

    This defines what a true musician is for me. The song was so powerful when I first heard it but after stumbling across this revealing interview, I'm even more amazed. Damian's honesty, emotion and voice are incredibly touching.

    Thanks for being so open with your feelings. It's not easy, but I think it's very important in a time were people hide behind perfect social media and PR and don't show any vulnerability. You are amazing Damian, with every part of you: black, grey and white. I can really relate to that feeling of being lost and pain when a relation ends and your heart couldn't accept it, because you put everything into it. Thanks for sharing your feelings.

    That was so personal Damian. I had no idea the meaning of each verse. It brought tears to my ears to hear certain parts that I can relate in some way more than I ever acknowledge to those around me. I cant even properly express how these event carry through my life even now. Thank you Damian. You never cease to amaze me.

    I usually listen to metal, but this song hit very close to my heart.
    It is not an easy thing to open up, so thank you so much for sharing... I'll hold this song and story dearly.
    I sincerely mean it when I say, me and other people here are with you. Much love

    I simply can't get over the fact that you really really look like Robin Williams.
