Damien,
Congratulations on the success of 22 steps. Have heard it on all Radio Stations in Brizzy today and it is wonderful. I keep requesting them to play it.
It is a really wonderful song and you should be so proud of yourself. (So talented). Can't wait for the Album, should be fabulous if the single is anything to go by.
Once again CONGRATULATIONS
Lots of love
Sister

I second that! If you had any doubts I would put them away it really is a great song and I love your interpretation of it. I will be buying them up for my mum, sister in law etc etc. Well done Damien.  |

Couldn't agree more! To be honest, Damien, I wasn't sure if I was going to like this song from the little snippets I had heard up until last night. I purposely avoided listening to the original as I wanted to keep a completely open mind until I heard your version. And now that I have I am so happy to say I LOVE IT  Congratulations on a perfect choice for your first post Idol single. You thoroughly deserve all the success this and the forthcoming album will no doubt bring you. Wombat  |

Said it elsewhere, D, but I was very pleasantly surprised by "22 Steps" too. Absolutely love the key change and bridge..makes the song for me. It's much more complex than I had expected and suits you perfectly, as you told us..*must remember to trust the artist*   Anyway, Congratulations! You must be elated! ;D |

All the best with the release of 22 Steps Damien. I can't wait to buy it because I love 'Song For Jarvis' and I am so pleased that it is one of the B Tracks, although it would have stood up on it's own. It is 22 Steps from my front door to my computer where I see you winking at me everyday. Here's one back    |

Dear Damien Ahhhhh I have only just seen and heard it for the first time and am still in that very excitable mode - but ahhhhhhhhhh just LOVE LOVE LOVE it Damien, am so happy for you to have your new single out there!! It's wistful, romantic, emotional - gorgeous jingly music, love the change, love the delicacy then the driving sound towards the hopeful ending - oh God just love it! Video and song. I was hoping to see you as the hero in the video this time, and at the end that is what happened, the "girl in forest" finally looks up and sees you there at the end. So it moved away from you being on the outside dreaming from afar to suddenly being in the story. I loved that. Very much the "enchanted" tale. I also loved how all that terror of finally talking to her was shown in the video just in those moments before you went into the final forest scene, but before that we saw you striding off after she left the deadbeat to go claim the girl. Funtarstic!! We're there cheering for the hero to get the girl. (silly girl, we could have told her to ditch that deadbeat guy in the first scene and go with the nice guy who gatecrashed their dinner with the guitar, lol) Good luck with it Damien!!! It's just beautiful, the song itself sounds so great - I can hear all your love of Neil Finn and The Beatles in there, almost an "I Am the Walrus, Magical Mystery Tour" era sound there in parts, a "Revolver" feel as well, but also very much reminiscent of "Into Temptation" at the beginning, and I can hear touches of "She Will Have Her Way"- all these great elements merging together so beautifully and uniquely into your very own style. Oh wow, you can tell I'm excited, I am. And very very happy for you!! love & best wishes for it's success ~shims xox |
