Lisa seems so sad in this video... but damn that first note when she sings la fille danse... it's mesmerizing. Her voice cuts like a knife... so hauntingly beautiful.
What a performance, Damien Rice has a lot of obscure songs that are not so famous, but they all have infinite more depth than the others that got famous. Incredible, an unique talent for sure.
When I listen to this song I am paralyzed by a feeling of longing and regret. I find it hard to distinguish wether that is due to my situation when I first heard this song, or wether it is just the beauty and emotion of the song itself. Maybe some of both.
I like how after a whole video of not moving the camera a cellist appears. It's like I'm watching any other Damien video. There is and will always be a cellist. Haha I love it.
Its 2023 and Im living on the road in Straffan that Decllan Rice used to live on and Im blaring this as loud as I can across the fields at 1.30am.......... Youre still here Damien!!
I love how Damien adds french words to this song. So now I take it that the professor is a Professor specializing in French which is universally considered a love language. makes a lot of sense.
La fille danse, quand elle joue avec moi Et je pense, que je l'aime des fois Le silence, n'ose pas dis donc Quand on est ensemble Mettre les mots Sur la petite dodo La fille danse, quand elle joue avec moi Et la pluie, me manque, pourquoi ? Non non, c'est la chanson La nuit, le vent L'amour, le sens ... De la petite dodo I'm french, and I think these are the lyrics.
I can't stop listening to this song...... It's just that amazing. Definitely my favourite Damien Rice song, and him and Lisa together are my favourite musicians.
Love mire --beautifully articulate -- artistic presentation. You speak for so many. Kudos for your art of being and being real. Beautiful. Thanks for Being you.
Thanks for posting,this is one of the best songs written.I completely understand how he doesn't just crank out albums,songs like this come but once in a lifetime.He deserves to recover from the pain , I think he truly feels in all his songs,I think having Lisa or whoever now,helps xxx
i wish i could have damien's voice, even if that is half of it. who can be do not fall in love his sing style. well i don't have another singer's info, but i'm pretty sure i can say no one compare with damien this kinda song style. and also if lisa's voice put them togather, it's getting better over the top.... omg i cant stop complement about them.....
well i already heard few song from jeff buckley. he is good too. but that's not kinda i want. what i want damien's own his style. thx for recommend anyway.
Not bored, tired of dealing with the separation that would soon ensue. Put two artists that talented in the same room and had feelings for each other...and it happens often. Just my opinion, not preaching.
goes like : The girl dances When she plays with me And sometimes I think I love her The silence, I don't dare When we are together To put the words On the little sleep la la la ... Those are the official lyrics, they sing something else in this video.
The girl dances when she plays with me And I think sometimes I love her Well silence does not dare when we are together. Put the words to rest. The girl dances when she plays with me and the rain, I miss her Why? No, no It's the song, the night, the wind The love, the sound of sleep. "la petite dodo" means a little sleep. IOW, a nap.
@PunkRevol La fille danse quand elle joue avec moi Et je pense que je l'aime des fois Le silence n'ose pas dit-donc Quand on est ensemble Metter les mots Sur la petite dodo La fille danse quand elle joue avec moi Et la pluie me manque Pourquoi? Non, non. C'est la chanson, la nuit, le vent. L'amour le sense de la petite dodo.
I believe they were apart here and they called them to record this in Germany? in thing..And she feels all uncomfortable....:( Its the greatest love story ever told.He still loves her and became even bigger trumpster .He is GOD...21 century Mozart
em portugues A garota dança Quando ela brinca comigo E eu penso que a amo às vezes O silêncio, não ousa dizer Quando estamos juntos Coloca as palavras Em um pequeno descanso
La fille danse, Quand elle joue avec moi, Et je pense que je l'aime des fois Le silence, n'ose pas dis-donc Quand on est ensemble Mettre les mots Sur la petite dodo Those are the official lyrics, they sing something else in this video. I translated this. You have to check again the comments list :)
Can anybody tell me how he sings "what shakes the elephant and what makes a man" my voice breaks at that point:( but Damien doesn't seem to push his voice it just flows
You just have to train your voice to get higher range. Try getting higher every time without hurting yourself. Takes time sometimes, everybody is different.
The thing about higher notes like that is you need to push more air as you get there- don't get louder, you'll strain yourself. It probably won't sound good at first but you just have to keep "repping" it
I think it's funny how people were like "OMG they totally got in a fight before this!!!" When she was probably just really tired/jet lagged/ or meditating! Haha.
La fille danse Quand elle joue avec moi et la pluie Elle me manque Pourquoi? Non,non C'est la chanson, la nuit, le vent L'amour , le son De la petite Dodo The girl dances When she plays with me and the rain I miss her Why No no It's the song, the night, the wind The love, the sound of sleep.
@frozenKmadness Totally agree. She looks so lost...like she is wondering why am I even sitting here. But her voice. Soooo haunting. She is so far from the microphone, but her voice is so clear.
anyone saying lisa is "napping", think again i never noticed this 'til now, but VERY faintly and softly at 1:52, you can hear lisa almost humming "...is the one who's in love" kinda cute i must say

I know you wrote this three years ago and more than likely do not even visit this youtube channel anymore, but thanks for the suggestion man, that was a great interview!
@PastaJunkie Well spotted on the cup, was it half full or half empty,maybe it was full, might have been empty. I wouldn't mind being the cup drank from by lovely Lisa.
Lisa seems so sad in this video... but damn that first note when she sings la fille danse... it's mesmerizing. Her voice cuts like a knife... so hauntingly beautiful.
If this video ever went down, and I lose that moment where she first comes in... I don't know what I will do.
she's just very contemplative
What a performance, Damien Rice has a lot of obscure songs that are not so famous, but they all have infinite more depth than the others that got famous. Incredible, an unique talent for sure.
IKR!!!
So true. I’ve been coming back to this one for well over a decade. Always goosebumps
Lisa is one of Gods finest creations . She my friends is an Angel.
You can't be in love and wise at the same time.
(Bob Dylan)
best acoustic performance ever saw with both
This is my favourite Damien Rice song. Those lyrics are breathtaking. They totally apply to me :(

여전히 최고다 진짜 이건..
My guru. My everything. Thank you for existing Damien Rice.
the French part at the end makes it sheer loveliness
2024.... still one of favourites
I love how Damien adds french words to this song. So now I take it that the professor is a Professor specializing in French which is universally considered a love language. makes a lot of sense.
You should change the name to Damien Rice and Lisa Hanigan - The Professor. Give this angel credit.
La fille danse, quand elle joue avec moi
Et je pense, que je l'aime des fois
Le silence, n'ose pas dis donc
Quand on est ensemble
Mettre les mots
Sur la petite dodo
La fille danse, quand elle joue avec moi
Et la pluie, me manque, pourquoi ?
Non non, c'est la chanson
La nuit, le vent
L'amour, le sens ...
De la petite dodo
I'm french, and I think these are the lyrics.
I can't stop listening to this song...... It's just that amazing. Definitely my favourite Damien Rice song, and him and Lisa together are my favourite musicians.
their voices together just melt me, aw i love it. this song has to be one of my top favourites by them.
Love mire --beautifully articulate -- artistic presentation. You speak for so many. Kudos for your art of being and being real. Beautiful. Thanks for Being you.
I can't help not listening to this song over and over again!
loved it!

não me canso de escutar as músicas do Damien. Tenho os CDs O e 9, e a cada música nova que descubro acho uma mais linda que a outra.
Thanks for posting,this is one of the best songs written.I completely understand how he doesn't just crank out albums,songs like this come but once in a lifetime.He deserves to recover from the pain , I think he truly feels in all his songs,I think having Lisa or whoever now,helps xxx

you can try jeff buckley, if you like the style of damien rice you'll most definitely love him.
well i already heard few song from jeff buckley. he is good too. but that's not kinda i want. what i want damien's own his style. thx for recommend anyway.
AJ je has great range for sure but you can just sing with your heart as je does
É Silada that's exact my thought. Thx bruh.
amazing, love that ending
Not bored, tired of dealing with the separation that would soon ensue. Put two artists that talented in the same room and had feelings for each other...and it happens often. Just my opinion, not preaching.
goes like :
The girl dances
When she plays with me
And sometimes I think I love her
The silence, I don't dare
When we are together
To put the words
On the little sleep
la la la ...
Those are the official lyrics, they sing something else in this video.
Get them back together
The girl dances when she plays with me
And I think sometimes I love her
Well silence does not dare when we are together.
Put the words to rest.
The girl dances when she plays with me
and the rain, I miss her
Why?
No, no
It's the song, the night, the wind
The love, the sound of sleep.
"la petite dodo" means a little sleep. IOW, a nap.
Do you know the second part in French? I cant find.

Lisa is and always has been in Damien's heart. Corny but I'm glad he's getting over her.
My fav DR song
that cup is going to drop
yes, he has another one called "b-sides". That's where you can find this music :)
I believe they were apart here and they called them to record this in Germany? in thing..And she feels all uncomfortable....:( Its the greatest love story ever told.He still loves her and became even bigger trumpster .He is GOD...21 century Mozart
Thanks! Fantastic!
This is an awesome version.

Lol it's not even higher. It's just louder pal
Fantastic!
I think it's funny how people were like "OMG they totally got in a fight before this!!!" When she was probably just really tired/jet lagged/ or meditating! Haha.
2023…. Still listening
Always love this video but always felt uncomfortable too. Many years later can see that uncomfort in plain sight. Such a shame
La fille danse
Quand elle joue avec moi et la pluie
Elle me manque
Pourquoi?
Non,non
C'est la chanson, la nuit, le vent
L'amour , le son
De la petite Dodo
The girl dances
When she plays with me and the rain
I miss her
Why
No no
It's the song, the night, the wind
The love, the sound of sleep.
Does it get any better?? Wow
💜💜💜
@frozenKmadness Totally agree. She looks so lost...like she is wondering why am I even sitting here. But her voice. Soooo haunting. She is so far from the microphone, but her voice is so clear.
anyone saying lisa is "napping", think again
i never noticed this 'til now, but VERY faintly and softly at 1:52, you can hear lisa almost humming "...is the one who's in love"
kinda cute i must say
Gosh..I first watched this video when there's no GFW in China.
search for la fille danse lyrics, it is actually a separate song that he just always plays right after the professor.
i love the french at the end
F*ck! I love this song!

聽不懂唱什麼...
但跟著音樂和音調.我的雞皮疙瘩也起來了.真的好好聽哦...
悠揚.澎湃.像身在海岸的懸涯!!!
Fuck off
La classe, leur français est parfaitement comprehensible.

I'm not sure about Dodo, in French dodo is masculine but here it is used as feminine. If you prefer translate La petite dodo as little sleep or nap.
Desafinado by Damien Rice and Lisa Hannigan. I found a song a couple months back and just saw your comment.
Type into google, 'damien rice hot press interview'. Its quite long but bloody worth it.
I know you wrote this three years ago and more than likely do not even visit this youtube channel anymore, but thanks for the suggestion man, that was a great interview!
@PastaJunkie Well spotted on the cup, was it half full or half empty,maybe it was full, might have been empty.
I wouldn't mind being the cup drank from by lovely Lisa.
Damien Rice+ French = Pure Happiness
Lisa and Damien were so good together
