11 years. The emotion is still the same. Yes, this piece of art survived.
This is a good reanimation of a doofenshmirtz backstory
Same here. It makes me feel I was young…
12 years now
12 years
just came back to this after many many years. its one of the first songs I learned to sing. Singing to it again tonight was something else. Cheers.
To anyone listening to this song with tears crawling down their face, thoughts weighing down their head, and/or sadness breaking down their heart: just know that things can get better. It doesn't normally happen at random, though. You must wipe those tears, lift that head, and mend that heart. Depression is very real and it is one of the hardest things to get rid of in this world. Most never remember what it's like to live without those dark thoughts floating through their head. But you can be better than most. Inside each and every one of us is a heart that wants to keep beating. Every day is a new day. 3 years ago I was sitting in my room writing letters to my family and friends for when I was gone. I could barely write because the paper I was using was soaked before I even started. That night I listened to all of Damien Rice's songs and looked through the comments on every video for hours. It's comforting knowing that you're not alone in the struggle to keep fighting. There are millions of us out there. One comment, hit so hard that I threw those letters away immediately after reading it. It went something like this: No matter what your past is like, you still have a future. You could wake up tomorrow and meet the love of your life. You could save an innocent child from running into the street after a ball. You could make a difference. You see, as long as you wake up every day and embrace the life that was given to you, you are making a difference in this world. We need every single one of you. Our world would not be the same without each and every one of us here to help one another. There are many bad apples but many many more good ones. You, are a good one. Even if you've had a couple of bites taken out of you, you are still capable of becoming a beautiful apple tree.
Thank you.
Thank you so much :(
Hunter Lawrence hey I came across this song by accident and I always read comments and I saw yours trust me I typing this while crying I suffered from depression long time bad and it's a really bad place to be in. In those times I need someone to just be there for me that's it and too bad I didn't have anyone but I somehow came out of it and after so many years I feel like am going into one again I know the signs and this time too I don't have anyone my ex dumped me for his career and my best friend chose her bf over me and they both took a huge part of me I can't seem to get over but I saw your comment and it's good to know I am not the only one going through this many people have fought this and came successfully out it so I just wanted to say thank you thanks a ton.
I lost my love to suicide and so I can't get a grip, I just can't love anyone else when I'm still in love with him, I carry him in my soul and it's just not enough.
Know that none of us need someone else or something to complete us. We are the only ones who are capable of making ourselves whole. When we search outside of us to fill a void it only disappoints. We are the ONLY ones that can fill that void. So do only what makes you feel happy for YOU and be the true YOU you like to be and you will never be disappointed. We are human BE-ings not human Do-ings so start BEing who you want to be and watch how amazing your life truly is and what it becomes. 💖✨
It's 1am, I have classes in the morning and I spend almost 30 minutes trying to recall the title of this song after 5 years. And here I am. I regret nothing I love it
Spent a couple of hours going through all my liked videos from the last 4+ years trying to find this song... It was worth every minute!!
Hope you'r not the teacher..
I watched this after brain surgery on a flight back to Alaska from Seattle. Took me 3 years to find it again.
You sound just like me, lol
I just remember it from Shrek 3
1:02 She sounds so broken in this part. 😭
It's like she's been hurt so many times, that she's laying on the ground crying, and her voice shows it. She's been crying for so long, that she can hardly even sing. And she's been thinking of the person who hurt her, even though she knows she shouldn't be.
This song helped me weep for my just passed father when tears wouldnt come. It holds a special place in my heart and never fails to take me back to that dark hospital housing bed where I lay urging out tears. I knew it was written about a different loss, but it was honest enough to break me down when all I felt was numb and allowed me to feel.. something I felt I should be feeling.
Appreciate what you have, be it family or lover.
LOL just came her from your channel keep up the good work man.
Jeffrey Triemer How is that response suitable for such a heartbreaking story?
(ノóωò)ノ ✩much-wow✩ I was wondering the same thing... Maybe he thinks LOL means Lots Of Love (fingers crossed)
Marc w lovely words m8.
I might be wrong but I think by lol he meant it was funny he just came from his channel and now he's found his comment on this video :)
Just realized that no one is talking of how amazing Lisa Hannigan is. Her voice is amazing.
She is amazing when she sings with other artists like this or with The National but own stuff is brutal.
Lisa Hannigan has a Wonderful Singing Voice, give Her album At Swim a listen, it's absolutely amazing!!!
@@barrycurtin5214 Her own music feels rather down to earth, and very optimistic, like a tranquil lesson on life.
Give some of Her albums a listen, and really listen hard, Her music is actually really amazing.
Did you only read the top 3 or something? lol
I once heard her voice described as honey dripping off a fork. She's amazing
I fell in love with this song at 16. Its 15 years later and its still a hit. Amazing
2022 and still one of the greatest songs ever written.
I only come back to Damien when I'm depressed.
Me also :(
Too, friend
Doesn't it make u worse?
+Myrea Soares wtf? When ur depressed u wanna feel happy
Ybot feel happy yfbot. robot.one.com.sorry.had2;
I realized that my younger self had a better taste in music than I do now. This song is amazing. Can't believe I haven't heard it in years.
Same with me. Lot of things changed..
Same
•́ ‿ ,•̀
Time to listen to it again !
The same
I was 20 when I heard this amazing piece of art and now I’m 37 and this song still hits me like the first time , take me through waves of beautiful memories ♥️
same, but 34 now.. feel you, pal
Same. 36. This song is about cheating. I made love to this song with some who had someone else. Next listen to Accidental Babies from the same album.
Well, same. :D 34 here.
Ditto
I couldn't remember the song I heard when I was about 20 years old, but I knew what the music video looked like and that the song brought me to tears every time. reminded me of Tori Amos - A sorta fairytale. Watching Ed Sheeran's documentary today reminded me of this masterpiece. Ed mentioned listening to Damien. I am also 34 years old and the song touches me like the first time.
if you’re still here in 2024 and were there when this song came out, I love you and keep going
Why do I have to meet your weirdly specific expectations? You're just some random
@@senseweaver01 because if you were around to listen to this when it came out, you have great taste in music and were more than likely going through something difficult at the time. Sorry you’re a child 🤷♀️
@@gorjessangel I was around long before this song came out. Why are you insulting me? You don't even know what I look like
❤🙏
@@gorjessangelyou dont know me
Nobody talks about the wonderful work of Lisa Hannigan, she adds a magical touch to the song with her soft and friendly voice.
Her voice is absolutely amazing
Doesn't even say Damien Rica feat. Lisa Hannigan! Lame... She is amazing!! I remember her show years ago in Belgrade, Serbia. The place was packed and she was so surprised people knew her songs (she had just one album back then) and have heard of her, she couldn't believe it. People were so charmed by her and we sang with her, she really appreciated it. Like she didn't know how good she was and couldn't believe people would recognize her talent. Since we wouldn't stop applauding and shouting at the end of the set, she was so sweet and she said "I would really like to sing more, but I don't have any more songs :D ". I would really like to see her get the appreciation she deserves!
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
I'm 35 now; and this song becomes more and more beautiful with each (new) year... may our battles in life get easier.... may we all survive the horrors we face today.
I remember when this song first came out while I was in middle school. At the time, I already had the idea of just what this song was. And till this day, I still find myself entranced with it. Never a day where I find myself tired of it at all. And I find myself to be blessed by it. To me, this is a one of a kind that I dont believe I could or would ever forget. Mr Rice, if by chance you ever see this, please know that youve impacted my life greatly so for the better. I am just so blessed and fortunate enough. Thank you
This song with this video is pure genius! No one else ever summed up so perfectly the emotional cost of cheating in a relationship like Damien. It is not only the relationship that breaks, but your own soul will get damaged as well if not broken. No matter which side is at fault it always ends up as a disaster. Messed up, weird and just perfect!
This utterly beautiful song would not achieve the emotional power it does without Lisa Hannigan's heartrending vocals. She is a rare talent!
Shrek always had such good and meaningful songs
Amen to that
Yeah Shrek is great. The first 3 anyways.
This guy's music is just pure chills
i've no doubt knowing this is the most beautiful song i have heard for years.
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
But she's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
No
Thank you!
sometimes it really be like that and it really isnt ok T_T
Thanks for posting
Thanks!
Thank you
One of the most hauntingly beautiful songs I've ever heard
Their voices make tears run down my face every time … wow ❤️❤️❤️

Same but I'm 29 now.

I wanna forget my childhood memories 😥
Same buddy. Same....
@@GothikAnimeFreak they hardly ever do. It's nice to listen to songs before the perspective shift tho. When life was still limitless and so was your potential.

It’s 2021.
Her voice sound exactly like my depression. And her voice soothes my pain.
I’m so sorry you’re in pain Amani. I understand only too well the pain of depression. Speak to someone, know you’re loved and know you’ve been heard 💕
Sending you love, light and healing thoughts.
It’s always darkest before Dawn.

Csenge Csontos Ezt a komentet kerestem!😊
13 years have passed and I keep coming back with the same memories
It’s from 2006 it’s older
I absolutely love this song and Damien Rice is brilliant.
This song is a beautiful combination of the 1956 french movie, "The Red Balloon," and the 1962 science fiction horror movie, "The Brain that Wouldn't Die." You will have to watch both movies to understand the meaning of this beautiful and emotional song. Bravo, Damien Rice for your artistic rendition of these two movies.
I want to tell a story about this song.
This is the reason that my best friend and I know each other. We met during our first year of high school to work on audition pieces for choir. Hanging out in the practice rooms and messing around on the piano, I played this song for her; since it's a duet that matched both of our vocal ranges, we sang it a lot.
It ended up becoming our signature song. Some twelve or thirteen years later, we still sing this when we get together. It's one of the most special pieces of music in my life. :)
update me in 8 years, im curious:)
That's so sweet! Friendship like that is a treasure! 😊
so when's the wedding?
@@leahcollins6502 😅
I feel you
14 years and the feeling is still intact
Now it has a different dimension for me, is it the same for you?
🙌💯
Yeah 😂
Still a heartbreaker in 2021.
One of the most emotionally draining songs of all time, with a delicate but powerful video to accompany it. Easily Damien's very best.
Have had this song on repeat after listening to it in the closing scene of "I'll be Gone in the Dark," so sad but so beautiful.
Man I got it from Shrek the Third💀
I don't think this song will ever get old. I personally have it on my playlist and its up there with my favourite songs and for me it's the song u hear and have to play over and over again because listening to it once just isn't enough. Thank you damien rice for this masterpiece.
WOW ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I Love you too much 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
15 years. The emotion is still the same. Yes, this piece of art survived. ;-) This is a suberb piece of music!!! Still and always!!!
I love this song but forgot the title, so I searched for "Sad balloon song" and here I am. Never thought it would work. Huh.
🤣🤣🤣.
music video flying ballon head -> yes
SAD BALLON SONG I'M-
Hahahaha sad balloon 😂
I had a kind of flashback in the train and had „is that alright” melody from the last verse stuck in my head. I’m so happy to have found It, even though I remembered only that verse. Thank you internet
Zum Lieder von Damien Rice komme ich immer wieder zurück. Und das Lied ist mein absoluter Favorit.
Es ist tiefgründig, zerbrechlich.
Ein einfaches Lied mit vielen Facetten.
Ich liebe es. Danke
Fantastic song. Pity it's my first time listening to. Especially 14 years after it's upload. Can't stop listening
Never gets old. SUCH a good song
The video is brilliant its clear his trying to hold on to a piece of her memories ( not all of her ) the soul is detached form the body without her he carries her in his memory but reality breaks his that dream .well that's that's what I see.
Neeraj, well you have hit it on the head, that's true of your comment as that I have been through the experience and makes me angry with her mentally at first as time is a great healer but years ago, could kill her in some ways in mental thoughts as this leads to jail time !
Neeraj Shamdev Lalu woe
Neeraj Shamdev Lalu I couldn't have said that better myself.
Ea
This song still gives me mad goosebumps
lost my dad 5 years ago, this song hits hard.
edit: also lost my mum this year in July due to a car crash... can't even listen to this song anymore!😒 rip mum and dad!
I lost my mom 5 years ago. Sorry, bro... It's hard I know...
🙏
Sorry for ur loss, stay strong
sorry for your lost
All those who are down, please know Jesus is just waiting to hear from you, prayers are real and He hears them, just ask Him to come into yr heart and heal it!
I want to thank Grey's Anatomy for introducing me to a beautiful artist like Damien Rice.
One of the greatest tunes of all time! Special memories with this tune
My father used to watch this video on loop with me sitting on his lap when they had a divorce. Now I’m sitting here many years later trying to recall what he sounded like.
Great comfort in this video and song!
It was my dad's 88th birthday yesterday but he left us in 2007. Sometimes I can't remember his voice ... then it comes back to me. I miss him 😢
@@rw8733 voices flew us the quickest, their words leave us never
@@wormlover3653 So true. I remember their words even if their voices fade in my mind. A lovely comment. Thank you.
Every time I am depressed and I feel like the world is such a sad place to live in, I come here to listen to this beautiful song.
My thoughts on the visual interpretation were a little bit carnal, or, physically based. Just the head remains because she gave her body to someone else. So, the head on a string represents the only thing that's exclusively his- what is kept inside the head only is memories, history, vocalizing. The head floats away, because the body is elsewhere. The head is the last to leave because they were trying to mend something, or confess, and trying to solve a visceral problem with logic, which of course can't happen. So now their virgin relationship has ended, and through time and hollow apologies they inevitable drift apart because it's simply not special anymore. Grasping at straws always seems to be the knee jerk reaction, as in trying to 'get back' with an ex, and the harder you try, the more you lose until eventually everything's gone.
Your description was so articulate and true it made me cry seems so sad
Joe Bob very true.
Wow.... this song just fits perfect to my current situation...
Love your comment 💟
+Joe Bob this could stop my heartbeats, your words are wonderful thank you for sharing
"So Damien, how weird do you want the video to be?"
"Yes"

@Witcher-Keys what did i do?
yaknowBruh WHAT DID I DO
😅😅😅
I started listen to Damien Rice when I was about 18, and now I’m 28. In between I’ve had listened and crazed over other artists and genres, but at the end of day I always return to Damien. His songs feel like home; it’s the most comforting sound to me.
Feels like home, I like that a lot
2021
I'm here
Illuzio🎧💜
Saw a comment that says 'I only come back here when I'm depressed' really hit me hard. For some reason this is thee only song that somehow calms my heart. Don't you just hate it when your tummy feels like a pit and your heart is aching from sadness, while your heart races and pounds up into your throat, causing you to become anxious.. Dauym being depressed really does suck..
You couldn't describe it better. Same feeling here bud
Anybody here forever?
Damn, it’s been 13 years, still one of the best I’ve heard.
It’s from 2006 it’s older

Crying on this in 22❤️
I grew up loving this song .I still love it!
Recently rediscovered my love for Damien Rice's amazing amazing music - so under rated in this mish mash world of pop hits we hear run through the charts leaving little memories in our souls.
Full of symbolism. A beautiful sad love story!
What for example?
Look where he is: if you've got nothing and nobody, you'll look in the garbage for emotional sustenance... I tried it just last week, as it happens - I had hoped to find Lisa Hannigan, but got a week old pepperoni pizza with stuffed crust instead.
hang
I stumbled onto this song in late '05 or very early '06. Simply incredible tune!
i forget about this song for years i forget even how it sound but i still remember how this music made me feel
Ill Be Gone In The Dark brought me here. Haunting.
Can't help but notice the lack of comments asking why there's a severed head singing
EXACTLY
cuz everyone gets it except u guys
One interpretation is that it's just the head because it's the idealization of her, she loves the relationship he has with that idealization. He however let her go, sometime before the video. Thats why she stars beside a dumpster, she was left behind and he's looking for her. Finally the head (concept/idealization) is destroyed by kids which can represent society, or change. Anyway... thats my take on it.
I was wondering that, too. It's too weird for me.
***** I remember watching that film in my high school French class.
It's not everyday you stumble on a 21:9 UA-cam video. Not least one uploaded 15 bloomin years ago! Song is as beautiful as ever, the music video as enchanting as I can remember but it really deserves a re-upload in HD! Peace & Love x
Listening in July of 2022. 9 Crimes was my first favourite song, and Damien Rice then became my favourite artist. It is so simply fitting for this one feeling that one could never fathom, until they feel it themselves. The feeling of I am 27 now, started listening when I was 12… right when I started to strongly feel the feeling. This song grew up with me. I am consumed by this feeling. The feeling? Hard to put it in words other than perhaps describing it as a “pain in the soul”.
U found this from Shrek?
I also feel a pain in the soul every day, hard to describe it with words. And I'm 27 as well
2021 and still loving this tune ♥️
The video makes perfect sense to me, he tries to hang on to her but didn't try hard enough (notice how he is lethargic in trying to grab the string first time round), he gives up, she then come back to him, they are happy, then the children come along (maybe symbolising someone else or a "childish act") and she is gone forever
2021 is hitting hard. This song is just universal 🔥😍🥺
Here in 2022. Still in tears.
I believe that both individuals are referring to the other person as their "gun.” They know that the potential for love is there and "loaded" in the gun, but it means nothing if it's not being expressed. They question how they are supposed to hold onto each other, when neither of them express their emotions and love (“If you don’t shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it?”). Although they ask if it’s “alright” to let each other go, I think it’s more of a sarcastic and bitter realization that it’s over. They’ve realized that the love between them was never enough. Asking if it’s “alright” to let the other person go is sarcastic in that it shouldn’t matter if it’s alright with the other person. They have come further to realize that these “small crimes” are exactly what they say they are - small. Usually, someone would use the excuse that they are in pain from the relationship ending and need some sort of distraction. Because the relationship never amounted to its full potential, they cannot use the excuse that they are in pain from the relationship ending. Perhaps pain is there, but it’s not from love being lost - it’s from wasting time on each other and waiting for something to amount from nothing. Even though he says it’s the wrong time and place to be cheating on her, it’s more of what it should feel like rather than what it does feel like. He’s found someone else to pull him through whatever he’s going through. Based on society's norms, he should feel guilty about it, but how can you feel guilty when a strong relationship was never there to begin with?
This is the best analysis of a song that I have ever read! Nice one, Azreena! I love your interpretation!
This is song is about cheating.... and the regrets and destruction that ensues. He even says
"This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you"
Other than the bit about cheating I agree with you completely - great analysis.
Thank you everyone Katrina Li Carol O'Hagan Gemma Pettersen ....I guess the situation I'm in helped a lot in my interpretation. The feeling when you heard a song and you try to relate your life to it ;)
Very astute observations all the same!
What the..the head is singing so beautifully
I was 6 when this was released. I watched this music video over and over and over. There was something so sadly beautiful about it that I couldn’t really understand as a child. It still hits hard ❤️
Still one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. 🎶🌷💕
I shed a few tears, and I don't see anything wrong with that
my interpretation of this video is much more simple. i think he was still hung up on the memories of ex and could't let her go until he was forced to, at which point he had nothing left of her that he could cherish. she was completely and entirely gone
it helps
+mufasa2005 Well the song to me clearly talks about cheating.
Spot on with that statement mate👍🏻
aluapzurc2
not going to argue with you there :) i agree.
but just bc he cheated doesn't mean he's over her or what he did.
mufasa2005 They both cheated, it wasnt only him.
It’s 1:46am, singing the lyrics to this song, not knowing the name…. coming back, it reminded me while my middle and high school years meant so much to me being a loner. Afraid to hurt the next person or anyone I loved. This song got me through, just like it is right now. Damien, you helped us all homie. Whether we’ve been broken, or broken someone else down…. sometimes it’s best to come to terms and let go. Ahhhhhh “Is that alright, with you? No” 🙌🏾💯
May 2023 still legandery
Thank you Shrek to always show the best songs ❤
this is so beautiful
2022 and Damien still gives me a reason to live for tomorrow 💕
I have been searching for this song for years. This is the most cathartic thing I have experienced in my life.
I have been listening to this song for years, but have never felt as broken as I do now that I relate to it so much... The guilt that accompanies the desire of what isn't rightfully yours is just.. so overwhelming. Feeling like you never quite belong, like maybe you're the only one struggling alone.. and it's not like you can be open about it. I feel like crawling under a rock. This song represents this in the most genuine way...
Melissa Gélineau
So overwhelming.. The right word..
It's 2022 and I love this song!❤
Listening to this in 2022! ❤️
you may listen to Rap, Rock, Metal, Pop and even to the shit like Justin Bieber, but i think no one has the right not to love this! if you have any taste in music, you should feel the depth of this beautiful song!
I watched this video at least 35x just today. I was lucky enough to have met such a wonderful person that i will now be forced to live without. I let my baggage that ive carried for years get the best of me and it cost me BIG! So many people want and seek love, but very few people ever look within to see if they are even ready for such a task. Me? i thought i was, hell i guess i didnt even think about it before i jumped off of the dock headfirst into the bitter cold waves of love. Fully submersing myself, completely content, hell... the best ive ever had! We didnt even make it out of the hunny moon phase before it was over. If you truly care about someone, work on yourself as best as you can, to become better not only for yourself, but for the significant other as well... dont be like me, full of regret!!! NOBODY WANTS A GREEN EYED MONSTER!!!
*respect:)
You dont understand how much this gets to me right now....... Hope u found what u are looking for.
I completely agree, mate. I've been in that situation and I have to say there are so many things that are required before you are fit to fall in love. God let me to know the most amazing person I could ever imagine. Her personality was something I had never even encountered. Her smile was the highlight of everyday. Her laugh put me in a full state of contentment. Most importantly she showed me what love is capable of. She showed me what it was like to be absolutely in love with your best friend. I've never been so happy in my life. Everyday I was just anticipating her presence. Part of showing me what love was capable of was when it ended. I've never felt like that in my whole life and I hope I never again do. The night I lost my best friend and, what I thought was to be, my life partner, was the worst night of my life. It just felt dark and cold. The sense of loneliness was nothing short of overwhelming. I wasn't ready to be in love like that. I don't know if I ever will be. As much as I miss my best friend, I think that she's happy right now, and really that's what matters.
2024 still breath taking
the song is so well written and can't stop listening to it love KE.
Its simple. He is in a position where he broke a girl and ends up with nothing.(Searching in the trash means he was searching for something new for his life) When he finds the coin and sees the head means that, just when he felt that he had new hope moving on he finds out that his ex lover was in the same position he was in. So when the head flies away and he chases her but fails then the head comes back means that, he tried so hard to get her back but she never came to him. then when he thinks he failed she comes back because she sees him actually trying hard. The scene where the kids shoot the head means that, when everything seems to be going good so far his childish ways allows him to do something wrong again, but this time destroying her for good. (just a guess guys!!!)
Now I understand the video, but I still can't interpret the lyrics
the video interprets the lyrics. Its actually kind of straight forward.
+Samuel Masaha I basically got the same interpretation on my end. The only subtle difference, was that she was a balloon. He was holding her and taking care of her. The fact that she came back was her trust in him to take care of her, however fragile she may be at the moment. As they are walking down the street, they are content. And when the children destroyed her, it symbolized his failure once again. So yea, basically the same interpretation, except accounting for the fragility of the girl.
+Samuel Masaha The scene where the kids shoot the head means that he is not able to protect her. So tis time he lost her for real
protect her from what?
Haven't heard this song in 10 years...I missed it!
One of the most artistic songs I've ever heard....come back here often just to appreciate it
2022 can’t beat a classic
Song is almost too personal to even comment on. I feel violated in the most amazing, melancholy way.
