Damien Rice – The Blower’s Daughter

When I think of music, I am reminded of something that is entirely infinite. I am a collector of songs and albums and playlists, but nothing is more surprising and incredible to me than when a close friend of mine can introduce me to a song or re-introduce me to a song. The Blower’s Daughter has always been a song that was in the back of my head, but until this weekend I never knew that it was sung by Damien Rice. I didn’t even know it was called The Blower’s Daughter. As soon as Samantha played it on her laptop and we listened to it before we both fell asleep, my heart kind of melted not only for the song, but for this very special memory that us as friends now have together.
