Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Lyre Of Orpheus

[CharlotteBosCure]

i love this vid so much just because it feels alot to my vision of life,

u know with Robert Smith as God and stuff

[PCHDX]

it's good to have something visual to go with the song, it works out well. Well played sir.

[sarahewright9]

I sing this loudly when I'm home to piss my mom off...

[DoctaDualist]

oh muma



[rushofblood994]

1:59 is actually a really cute drawing ..

[obdurate6]

Super Cool Video!!!

[florenciarob]

i loved it. the song is great... lyrics, brilliant... but the cartoon makes it perfect!

[MarquiseLilium]

this video honestly disturbed me...

[rubentje321]

We saw it in Latin class!

Did you draw it with Paint?

[bobfairmead]

Sorry for the following...

That is one fucking brilliant cartoon

Thanks, ace.

By the way, how Tom Waits is the track?

[TheXFalcon]

Of COURSE Nick is too badass to be God. He's Satan, does that even surprise you?

This video was FUNNY. I mean, the lyrics themselves are hilarious, but with this advanced animation art and amazing script, of course it would only get better. Besides, I like your interpretation of "he sawed the wood with half a heart". Literal interpretation is next to godliness.

[ScrewYouPeacock]

This is ~brilliance~

[lukab0i]

excellent!

[athabascka]

ROBERT SMITH IS GOD!!! FUCK YES

[iafhn]

TIS VIDEO IS GREAT! I'VE WATCHED IT 100 TIMES, AND STILL I CAN LAUGH!! :D HAHAHAHA

[blackblackgrey]

I LOVE IT

[blewcheer]

This should be the official music video of the song, it's so ridiculous!

[blewcheer]

I used to sodomize girls to this song in college. PS, that animation RULES.

[blackblackgrey]

@blewcheer

That comment made me laugh so much! :P

[MrScoopy19]

If you play that fucking thing down here, I'll stick it up your orafice! I wish Nick Cave had written all the great Greek myths and legends...

[GavesaQuadrada]

nice

[Notawesomeatall7]

I fuckin' love what you've done here

[circespell]

I think O'Malley's Bar is also crying out for your artistic attention...excellent work

[Notawesomeatall7]

5:07 is FUCKING COOL

[KayserEin]

no, no this is GOOOD!!! find funding and dont change your style

[MrScoopy19]

Laughed my ass off to this! The vid goes so well with the humour in the song. Nick Cave's got a wicked black sense of humour too!And to anyone here who hasn't, please read The Death of Bunny Munro. Sheer class!!!

[maxdude12]

LOL at 2:00 minuites Orpheus' arms are coming out of his head!

[maxdude12]

Awesome video.

[channon16]

this is brilliant,you have to havea go at curse of millhaven.that would be wicked!!!!

[robbieslovecat]

@channon16 haha thanks! Curse Of Millhaven would definitely be a fun one... We'll see what my boredom inspires... ;)

[vetro9]

[DangerasTM]

[moichim]

The last scene is full of immense energy.

That is the way to stimulate one's imagination.

no detail + lowest resolution = (imagination)²

[Vixenfox259]

Forget the wife and everything else i got my heart and my music!

[TripleLaugh]

it's a little bit brutal..

[QueenCrimson1969]

Lol, great video!

[Varsar]

Nick Cave at his most Tom Waitsiest.

[solaranus]

[themiff]

Sometimes, there are good songs to listen to, sometimes songs are bad....but Nick Cave makes each song a damn adventure. Good job on the video. Like a lot of Cave's work, very minimalist...but that's where the edge is.

[ayvaliktostu]

good job ,really enjoyable .

[CalfCreek4x12x08]

this one is for mama!!!

[CalfCreek4x12x08]

incredible song! great lyrics! i cant stand music that talks about god, heaven and any kind of religion but nick is such a genius and i could listen to any pro-creasionist music he writes!

[EvilRadiatedMonkey]

What the hell are you talking about?

[CalfCreek4x12x08]

what do you mean "what the hell are you talking about?" be specific...

[HaveALemonxXx]
