9 Crimes

This song is my ultimate favorite these days. I found it while watching a pole dance video on YouTube. Now I just keep playing it over and over again, and for some reason it makes me want to cry. So few songs move me this way… Beautiful, original, touching.

9 Crimes

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 u 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
With you?

Because I love this song so much, I’m making it available here in the Box. You can listen to/download Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan singing 9 Crimes by clicking on this link. This is an amazing, amazing song and I really hope you would enjoy it as much as I do.

Here’s the video of 9 Crimes; it’s on YouTube but it cannot be embedded. Do watch it — it’s surreal in a really creative/strange fashion. I’m fairly certain you will be impressed.

Here’s another video of Rice and Hannigan performing 9 Crimes live on stage:

Good music is another name for magic.
