It can be hard, to rebutt overerlander's comment, to see past a petty level, almost like a bifurcation at the surface of the sea which renders the sight thereinto bent and shallow and knowing one is unable to see deeply thereinto. As for Mr.Cave failing to reveal himself, does one actually know that Old Nick himself? Is what he reveals to be of himself, or does one, in seeking, find one fails to know him, and only that of which he reports reports? Fuck it's impossible to stay young and the same.
I've liked Nick Cave for a long time. I've liked the clever lyrics in the same way I liked Matt Johnson from The The. But I find I never return to his albums. There is a shallowness in his work. I think he is afraid to reveal himself. And when I watch this, I understand why I haven't bought an album since murder ballads. Fuck I hope I don't get old and lame
I live in Ireland, and I always hear people say "Australians only have good cover bands" Then I remind them, Nick Cave is Australian. I don't like inxs, so I don't count them ;)
Besides, it's not like we shovel out great musicians that aren't traditional. U2 can suck a fat one.
Putanheiros. Andam nas putas. Como seria possivel o Blixa estando casado andar nesta vida de putanheiros? Este gaijo não ganha bom senso? E o Casey? Quem o viu bem comportado e menino da mãmã nos Triffids e agora putanheiro. De quem é a culpa? Do barbudo?
@TaskMaster619 Yes!!!! It is! But I can crack the quotations just as far as he escapes the Circes and his turned to pigs pals, bumps into a one-eyed Poliphemus, autographs "nobody" in his paper, and plugs his eye bilnd with the pen, still under the influence of the "potion" of the Circes. What else?!?!
@TaskMaster619 Holy fuck, I didn't realize this until I read your post. I feel stupid now. That's the great thing about Cave's lyrics, you're always uncovering layers and meanings.
Well, I'm a huge fan of Nick's ... I'm a girl and I'm straight but, there's something I must to say: "These two girls dancing at the poles... They rocks !!! They're sexy, beautiful, charming and, for sure, great pole dancers ... Extremely talented !!! WTF are those moves upside down ??? Come on ... Amazing !!! " Congrats to Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds ... Another true masterpiece !!! I couldn't expected less from them ... They're fantastic as always !!!
Wrong, 8 minutes is too short for this song. To me, it could go on forever, soundtracking my life. I always flick back onto it whenever it ends because I'm wanting more.
it seems like MR.CAVE is playbacking hand that is the expression i get..
such a shame because if there is one thing he must never do is fucking playbacking.. but i could be wrong..saw too many videos by the artist and his films and the intervieuws and read the books but here i miss the cave-energy level.. sorry mr. cave
its funny how i tell people this is my favourate song and they say what? my generation is dead and it gets stanger every year, lady gaga justin bieber dont even hold a candle to nick cave!
This is perhaps the coolest video ever, and all it is is a bunch of well-chosen celebrities and actors doing not very much in a bar. Peaches Geldoff, Will Self and Andy from Eastenders, doesn't get much better than this.
I saw Nick cave and the bad seeds live at the hammersmith appollo last year we got on the front for and he was awesome so much energy i love the way he tailors his shows to the audience. In paris it was so much more relaxed he sat at the piano for most of the show.
Tupelo, Dig Lazarus Dig, Stagger Lee, Henry Lee, Red Right Hand, The Ship Song (Although it was referred to as the "Moustache song"), Mercy Seat, Love letter and a few others that I can't remember :)
I saw him at Provinssirock in Finland. It was an okay concert, but not amazing. I'm a huge Cave fan and to me it was a dream come true, but somehow they lacked the energy I was expecting. It could have been becouse of the audience, who had been drinking and partying for three days already. Anyways, great show
God, I am SO glad I lent him my lounge (and daughters) to shoot this video. Amazing track. (By the way, the toothless old timer up front the audience...that's me).
I don't speak English language very well, don't quite understand many lyrics of Cave's songs either, but i can feel the vibes and emotions from his songs. That's enough for me. For more, I look at lyrics book.
HRIMFAUXIE, do you speak and write any other language than English, can you discuss some "academic" issues on other languages as we're trying in English.
And it's not "grammer", it is "grammar". How is mine.
Respond this!
Best regards from Republic of Srpska, if you know where it is.
I don't interested in the opinion of academic circles. His music "serves" my feelings everytime. I don't mind if I feel blue or I have joy -- his songs are perfect for me for 20 years. Nothing else matters..
