OK, so...I was listening to Damien Rice's lovely, brilliant and mesmerizing debut, O yesterday and when 'Cannonball' popped on. Immediately I thought of that f*ing James Blunt song.
How did I never realize before how much James Blunt rips off Damien Rice? Has anyone else noticed this?
We all know he will NEVER have the grace and vocal inflection that Damien possesses, and his attempt is quite embarrassing when you listen to the two tracks side by side, one after another.
I just can't believe I didn't see/hear it sooner!
In related news, Damien Rice (alongside tour partner, Fiona Apple) will be at Summerstage tonight. We wanna hear your thoughts on his new tracks if you make it out! I'm also keeping my fingers crossed for no thunderstorms. I only want the best for you.
I'd put the songs side by side for you, but there's no reason you should have to bear 'You're Beautiful' any more than you already have. So, here's some Damien for you.
'The Blower's Daughter'
