He's ready to take us on new journeys

Damien Rice's first two albums, released in 2002 and 2006 respectively, were of a world in which people wanted to feel; his third, in 2014, years after the financial crash, was of a world in which they didn’t. In which the chart-topping music, at least in the UK, was centred mostly around rendering oneself insensate through drink, with lyrics that featured every possible combination of the words 'tonight', 'young' and 'forever'.

So what's Rice been up to? He's been busking. He's been performing impromptu gigs across European cities. No press; no announcement. The ideal turn-the-corner surprise for a would-be flaneur, or inveterate ennui. These performances are discovered after-the-fact through wobbly, low-res video footage posted online. He’s been, by all accounts, living. Taking his time. An artist through and through.

Also, playing before Rice, Cruz managed to coax a room of mostly British people into singing in another language: three-a-piece repetitions of the word mañana: tomorrow in Spanish. This, in addition to her significant talent, deserves special recognition.
