Keaton Henson - "Delicate" (Damien Rice Cover)

Музыка

To celebrate the release of Keaton Henson's new "The Lucky EP", a limited edition bundle was released which included a wooden die, a t-shirt and, of course, the EP. My die was the "lucky" one which allowed me to choose one song for Mr Henson to cover. I was torn between "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen (albeit more in the style of Jeff Buckley) and "Delicate" by Damien Rice. I chose "Delicate", because I feel like there are not a lot of good covers of the song and that Henson's voice would lend justice to the vulnerability and, indeed, delicateness of the story told in the song. I decided that it would be a bit selfish of me to not share the cover, so here it is! I hope that you enjoy it.

    OMFG!! I just discovered this guy today, and he reminded me a bit of my favorite singer, Damien Rice mixed with a little Passenger, so I thought I'd search "Keaton Henson Damien Rice" in hopes of finding something, idk, and I find this GEM of a cover. My life has been made complete.

    We might kiss when we are alone When nobody's watching We might take it home We might make out when nobody's there It's not that we're scared It's just that it's delicate So why do you fill my sorrow With the words you've borrowed From the only place you've known And why do you sing Hallelujah If it means nothing to you Why do you sing with me at all? We might live like never before When there's nothing to give Well how can we ask for more We might make love in some sacred place The look on your face is delicate So why do you fill my sorrow With the words you've borrowed From the only place you've known And why do you sing Hallelujah If it means nothing to you Why do you sing with me at all? So why do you fill my sorrow With the words you've borrowed From the only place you've known And why do you sing Hallelujah If it means nothing to you Why do you sing with me at all?

I so badly want to explain it but no words could really be able to make anyone understand how much their music affects me. So I'm going to shut up and let my hungry ears listen to their spell-binding songs and let them carry into the furthest galaxies of my imagination. Au revoir.

Now, I appreciate the upload of this amazing piece of music, but you could at least offer to pay me back some of the thousand man points I've lost!! (that's one man point per tear.)

    I imagine it is a die (singular of dice). each person to order the new EP got one and a tshirt etc. but one person only, received a "lucky" one which entitled them to request a song for Keaton to sing. The uploader is the lucky guy to get the die and so chose this song for Keaton to cover. Hope this helps

    I can definitely see what you mean. Not everyone can sing with that kind of power/range but when someone covers a vocally strong song I kind of expect them to step up their game try to put on a performance worthy of the original. That being said I thought Keaton did a fantastic job. Definitely could have been improved by a some oomph on the last chorus the way that most people with bigger voices usually do it but Keaton doesn't have a big voice and I'm not going to fault him for staying within his range.

    +Daryl Parkin I love Keaton, "To Your Health" is probably one of my favorite songs of all time. That being said, his strength is as a songwriter not really a singer. And be honest, he didn't really make this song his own. He did it at near the same tempo with the same chords and he sang the quiet parts just like the original.
