'I Don't Want To Change You', the first official single from Damien Rice's recently announced third album, has just got the promo treatment in a brief clip which shows the Rice singing on (and ultimately jumping off) a pier.

The track showcases the elements which made Rice such a hot property more than ten years ago on his album 'O' and later '9', namely his earthy, delicate vocals and the gentle melodies which surround them.

An interesting teaser, no doubt, but is it enough to go head-over-tails with excitement about his first record in eight years? Time will tell on that one.

'My Favourite Faded Fantasy' will be released in November on Warner.
