There are a bunch of songs that I think are beautiful recordings, and I'm proud of them, but I've no interest in listening to them.

Inside, I've got a real purist desire and dream about the music. I like the idea of being able to carve out a kind of magical, colourful, artistic, inspirational life. And the reality just turns out to be quite different, working with the business to bring this thing you have created into the world.

I don't have a craving for money. And I don't have a craving for fame.

Damien Rice Quotes
