Having only heard about Damien Rice a few months ago i was curious to see what all the fuss was about. This album is a glorious piece of music and one of the best debut albums ever. Rice has a superb talent for creating catchy yet heartfelt songs that really call out to be sung along to, which leads to another point, his voice is amazing as is lisa hannigan's who sings beautiful harmonies and the lead lyric on "I remember". There isn't a bad song on this album, all the 10 tracks flow with a graceful melody that sinks deep into your brain and doesn't stop for overan hours worth of audio lushness. If you haven't heard it then you must straight away, it never strays far from my CD player and is definately one of the best albums i have heard in years.
