VIDEO: Damien Rice’s ‘My Favourite Faded Fantasy’

WARNING: This song will leave you unsatisfied and begging for for more. If you’re fine with being teased intemperately, and you’re certain that your balls won’t turn blue, we invite you to test your resolve with Damien Rice’s new teaser. It’s the first we’ve heard off his upcoming album (first in eight years), and it’s simply magical. It’s less than two minutes long, and in that space the track manages to seduce you tenderly, gently, but as the orchestral movement builds and you’re caught up in the moment – you suddenly realise that you’re left with nothing. Everything from the lyricality, to the emotive strength and production value of this tune is top notch, and we wouldn’t expect the rest of the album to differ.

Beautiful.

Update: The full track is out now!
