hello there...'self and the missus saw you on sat night at the highline...great great stuff...thanks for a great evening to you and the band...we've been big fans since we saw you years ago sing a song w/ the frames at the bowery ballroom. continued success to all of you...take it easy...the big mig

Hi! I just saw you on the colbert report and you reminded me (voice wise) of PJ Harvey and otherwise of lots of other bands I like but of course you don't want to hear how similar you are to other people. I can just say that I enjoyed listening to you and your band and if you ever find yourself in the area of french switzerland (say lausanne or montreux) my family and I would be happy to show you around and show you where the best beers are (or whatever). Good luck with everything else

-Nik

Colbert Bump!

I enjoyed your music on Colbert -- have fun on your continuing tour!

I also discovered you on youtube (i don't know in the pub)
and i thought you where great and then forgot
then i saw you on colbert and remembered. then i googled you and found out i've heard you sing countless other times on my Damien Rice CDs

Sea Sew is bought
Friends told
Concert tickets in Dallas will be bought, just not yet

doubt you'll read this but oh well

-Zepp-

Your show in Louisville was amazing.  Both groups, honestly, just an honor to watch.

I've sent word to friends in Houston and Austin to drop everything and find your show.  Hope you come back soon.  (But to a different venue... please. I beg you.)

Colbert Bump!

I now believe this man's word is gold. I am literally in love with you, and your music, fantastic job,
Come to Calgary, AB Canada soon.
Thanks for the Music.

I think I'm smitten! You and your band are amazing, seriously amazing! When I hear Ocean and a Rock I pretend you are singing to me and the world is perfect. Thank you!

Any chance that you come to brazil?

Dear (Miss) L' Hannigan,    
-(and "comment posters", too, reading along with you)...            

(How cool that) "I heard you first". The day after that lovely little lullaby on (his) show I was at the music store for a look around and accidentally, almost immediately, saw "B-sides"..., (with your "grump" hanging out on the cover); I confused (him) with Damon Reece -which was odd- until only about an hour ago..., which is even way ...odder(?), (but it's because I've been alot about the Cocteau Twins lately), and because I heard you first, which, too, is odd... (though very cool); and so, (YOU), turned it into a "2-for-1". So I got it and you know what? Moody Mooday -blew me away! Then, Woman like a Man, because, mostly, (in BOTH cases), of your very cool, raspy, Bjorkesque style/sing-a-long: during the chorus, what are ya sayin'?... "well, whatever it is..." I love it, bought it -twice- and (you know), naturally, next will be: your new, cleverly created, creative debut -before O, or 9..., (and d' ya know why?...), "you-know-I-know" which first full-length I want with mine.
-(he) smiles, and submits-
P.S.  -cool picture(S). and, post-post-script, "petite 990"?, what's that?-

Hi Lisa, I found you on youtube. I´m brazilian and I loved your music. Your portuguese pronunciation surprised me. Someday I will travel to ireland and see your show. Congratulations!  Please, if you have interest about other brazilian musics, I can present you special songs and maybe try to translate for you. my e-mail is rbgondim@yahoo.com.br. Bye. Ronner

Lisa, can I ask that you put out a "Blurry" single? I enjoy listening to it on youtube, but I would like a version for in the car and ipod.
I know you just left the US, but when you're thinking of doing your next tour, try to make a stop in Florida. I would greatly enjoy it if you came to Gainesville, but anywhere in the northern part of the state would be welcome.

Lisa...i so regret not telling you how much i enjoyed your music, your voice....you...when you performed in Toronto , October 2008.
i suffered a little time lapse in with respect to hearing all you had to offer and now on reflection..i wish i had listened closer. I will check in on you often and look forward to all your future projects.
Lisa...you are the BEST! I absolutely love your early works and all you are doing NOW!

hey lisa Aasem from egypt saying hi , am not so good with the words but i will tell u just few words :),

saw u on the colbert report , bought the cd the next day , became the LISA HANNIGAN- promoter in egypt and the middle east .

wish u read this blog in person , best of luck .

Hi Lisa,

I'm new to the site as of this evening.  Before today, I only knew of you from your appearances on Damien Rice's records.  However, that all changed when I heard your song "Lille" on thesixtyone.com today.  I listened several times on there and have now watched the accompanying video quite a few times, as well.

My grandfather passed away unexpectedly on Saturday evening and while I don't know if your original meaning for the song is exactly relevant to my situation, it certainly felt so.  Especially the first verse.  Both the video and song are beautiful and brought tears to my eyes, even as I sat at work.

It was almost difficult to watch/hear, but I wanted to write you somehow (couldn't find any fan/press email contact on the site) to thank you for crafting that song.  I shared it with my family, and though it is somewhat melancholy and painfully stirring for us, it has helped immensely with the mourning process.

Hopefully you'll read this, or someone will let you know about this post because I would love for you to know that your music has affected me and my family in a deep and meaningful way.  If there's any way you could send me an email or something to let me know you got this, that would be wonderful... but I understand if not.

God bless.  Oh, and I'll be picking up your album very soon :-)

Thanks,
Matt

Hey Lisa,
I'm glad to see Stephen Colbert is your hero, he's mine too. I saw you on the show (I'm sure you're used to hearing that) and love your music. I was actually in NY in January and saw the Colbert Report live, I wish you were the guest that day but it was still a good time. Anyway, just wanted to let you know how how much I love the new album and the videos of you in the pub. I hope you make it over to the D.C. area in America sometime. Then again, I'll be in Ireland sometime in June. I'll keep a look out for any tour dates I can get to.

Keep doing what you do,
-Kenny

Hello,

Colbert is my hero as well. Have you seen him play Noblet in 'Strangers With Candy'? Noblet expresses impotent rage like no other!

If you feel like touring with 'The Flaming Lips' I would buy all the tickets in support of it. It would be a perfect storm of good vibes.

Much love,
Aaron

hi lisa,  firstly wow i think your voice is absolutely superb and its very unique as compared to other women artists...i recently heard your new album sea sew and before that heard you through damien rice..so yes i'm a realtively new fan of your voice..but apart from that your very pretty and simply beautiful....would love to be in your concert and see you but since i live in india dont think it will be happening soon..keep making good music..

Hi Lisa!

I had thought the first I heard you was on NPR's All Things Considered, but when I went to YouTube to check out the vids, I realized I'd seen the official "Lille" vid at some time looking for something else, and now seeing the Colbert clip -- big fan of the man myself, got the wrist band ;-) -- I realize I've been a fan a lot longer than than I thought!   You are one amazingly talented bundle of brilliance; take it from one who is all thumbs when it comes to musical instruments, and all frog when it comes to singing ;-)   I've combed through a bunch of your stuff on YouTube -- including the stuff with Damien and Gary and....
This is getting to be way too fanboy-ish to continue, so just let me finish by saying I really hope sometime you get down Indianapolis, Indiana way.  Love your work.  Your special.
Thanks for sharing your talent with the rest of us.

Hi Lisa and all the band,

This is Ricard writting from Barcelona, just wondering if the band and you are  planning to come to Barcelona soon. I keep listening to your songs and can't help smiling.

Looking forward to watching you live in Barcelona.

Sincerely,

Ricard.

Hey,

I'm over in New York for a few months and was delighted to hear that your playing on the 19th. I'm a huge fan so i'll see you there.

Lorna

Do you have some gigs brewing up in Asia? Philippines, maybe?
