I tend to not really dig overly "sentimental" music, but I must say Damien Rice's O has always been a personal favorite of mine. There is something about many of the songs on the album that just make you breakdown. Since being released in 2002, there are still very few records that hit me harder than O. While I admit that some songs are really over the top, such as the end of "Eskimo," other songs, such as "Cannonball," are just so breathtaking gorgeous that you can't just say that Rice's music is over the top. "Cannonball" has just such a genuine and passionate quality to it. You don't just hear this song, you feel this song.
