Amie, come sit on my wall.


:)Damien Rice concert at London Wembley, the arena.

okay i gotta confess, ive always written him off as a singer whos too sad and erm boring for my liking. but hey the ticket wasnt too expensive so i went with andre to see maybe ill change my opinion about him;)
and man am i a changed woman.

i never knew i could like sad songs so much:) he's very raw so it makes you wanna go up to him, and give him a big bear hug. but yeah listening to his songs for the first time as an audience in a live concert really makes me wonder how this guy managed to write all these songs. has he lived that much?






but my favourite song is still 'amie', and the effects for that song was really dreamy;)











even though he kinda made it awkward (i thought) by bringing in burma's political situation and brought in burmese refugees and brought up the peaceful riot the monks did in the concert itself, ie making the crowd chant the same words the monks did in response to aung san suu kyi's house arrest(personally i felt slightly used) but hey it shows he's bringing awareness. cos i chanted too :D at least now(according to andre) you can tell people you were involved in a political rally!
