Older Chests Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Lita08 

Cover art for Older Chests lyrics by Damien Rice

I didn't read this as necissarily being against change (though if the the man himself says so, I suppose it's true). I just took it as an sad observation of modernisation and globalistaion, rather than an attack.

I can see with what's been said about having too many books etc, but don't you think the way Damien sings is almost wistful? Almost like a good-natured challenge.
