Nick Cave There she goes my beautiful world (live on Later)

[bernadotte913]

this song makes me happy

[manicbabyshambles123]

Mmmmmm I do like this song, but one thing.....JUST ONE THING! Johnny Thunders didn't write Chinese Rocks. That acclaim can only go to Richard Hell and Dee Dee Ramone. Johnny did sing a version of it with The Heartbreakers, who for a time had Richard Hell in it/ I'm surprised at Nick for this oversight.

[dannyboygoeswest]

mete essa

[lordvaldomero89]

Es tan hermosa la canción y las sensaciones que trasmite, que ha uno lo emociona hasta las lagrimas!

Bravo Nick!

[3cheekymonkeys]

Having a crappy day today and then I heard this song for the first time ever - feels good to be alive now!

[nonirockify]

Woo-hoo! Tix to see Grinderman at Meredith. Wasn't going to go until heard they were playing. Gonna be a damn fine weekend in Oztrailia. Plus he's always here at Xmas to see his mum - she lives up the road

[RattlesnakeBob]

@ anabashman  only Australia's?...I say one of the WORLDS greatest bands myself! :)

[Lieu3C4]

It can only get worse now.

[SuperVoodooguru]

this and Abbatoir Blues on the same show...

you can see that Cave knew they were on form that day.

[controlesexism]

Warren Ellis beardless? I thought that thing was glued to his face since birth!

[michaeltownsend604]

oh my life

[wallOfFireDoc]

@fitsfiend1138

I suppose singing Dee Ramone was half alive when he wrote Chinese Rocks doesn't have the same ring to it

[ShizuokaDolphin]

This has been on heavy rotation around these parts recently. Genius.

[reverb1974]

Nick Cave amazing. this song came out on the day my 1st son was born! I bought it on 7" vinyl. My beautiful world!

[adsones]

HE'S A MOTHERFUCKING GENIOUS!

[morningchaps]

I've never seen these guys phone a performance in. It's always 100%.

[thewrongbananas]

okay, if this doesn't move you then you are dead inside. or a robot.

[ruttergod]

Too too good! So if you got a trumpet, well get off of your feet, brother, and blow it! And if you gotta field that don't yield, well get off your ass and hoe it!

[AndrewHozier]

I love the way Jools gives a list of the other guests, and immediately after says ''Now.. lets welcome back one of the good ones.''

Ouch.

[MrSpecko64]

Always been a huge Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds fan and have been lucky enough to see them live many times on the Melbourne scene over 3 decades.I was'nt sure what else they could do to mesmorise me, then they released Abattior Blues and it's incredible.Long live the king

[nastyhobbit]

the intro for 'Lowdown' brought me here

[lovelybeans]

I live for Nick Cave!

Anybody else notice right in the beginning when he points out keyboard dude's open fly? :P

[SirDayWaster]

songs like me make me just give up on song-writing. . .the best has been written, what else is there left to do? Awsome! stuff, thanks for posting :)

[SirDayWaster]

@SirDayWaster

*songs like this, not me. . .

[priMMoz]

@SirDayWaster same here

[jimmyoct1973]

The spirit is alive and present - Nick Cave is a preacher I could follow!

[TheAbsolutionHowl]

Luckily the show ended there - would NOT want to be in a band that has to follow that!

[braveulysses1985]

perfection

such a cool performer and amazing songwriter

[pmulbrecht]

every time i suspect that nick cave has explored everything worth his time, he seems to find something else... this is just plain amazing...!

[TheAbsolutionHowl]

This transcends both convention AND music. Dear lord.

[ashburnhouse]

I love the catalogue verse style.

[luccaluccalucca]

5 Stars

[XRISSX77]

GOD DAMN!

[anabashaman]

Possibly Australia's greatest band

[jimbophil]

@anabashaman

Head and shoulders above anything else from down under.

The only band worth mentioning really.

Australian music hasn't exactly set the world on fire. You know things are bad when pap like INXS are considered luminaries.

Hardly surprising. If Oz had just been discovered and we again decided to off load our crims there, it would be wall to wall ASBO toting chavs, the result - another cultural wasteland, the only talent on display being a flair for racism and incredible stupidity.

[MrSpecko64]

@jimbophil Do you actually know anything about the Australian music industry,I think not!

[floyded2]

you mean definitely :)

[signogun]

@anabashaman Possibly?!?!?! What the fuck else have they got to offer? lol :D

[MrSharpeace]

@anabashaman Cave and Harvey are from Australia, but it doesn't make a band australian. They don't live there for many years.

[MrSharpeace]

@MrSharpeace And Ellis of course.

[Lloronadeazuldelirio]

Grande!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chmicharka]

Magic.

[bathsheba56]

"And Johnny Thunders was half alive when he wrote 'Chinese Rocks'.

Dee Dee Ramone would have objected to that line, let alone Richard Hell.

[dumpkinson]

nick cave and the bad seeds top f-----g shelf.

[RattlesnakeBob]

the man sure is a poet ..great tune too.love it.rocking........... in some order....

[eckmacdonald]

Class the best song writer of them all.

[grooveycat]

absolutely awsome, this man I think cannot imagine his own genious, I bow to his majesty. Thankyou for this post, I have approx 7 of Nick's albums but have a big MUST to go out & get the album that this track is on, no one can beat this x

[shawndimery]

This is his greatest album, its 2 discs and EVERY track is awesome!

[imhavingmentalblocks]

damn he's great

[roncodoc]

reminds me of ring balogna, ah yes

[damonomania]

Wow, a Johnny Thunders reference, I wouldn't expect that

[quasarsphere]

This song is absolutely fantastic!

One small niggle, though -"Johnny Thunders was half alive when he wrote Chinese Rocks"

Johnny Thunders didn't write Chinese Rocks. Dee Dee Ramone did.

[longfingernail]

Doesnt sound as good thought does it?

Dee Dee Ramone was half alive when he wrote Chinese Rocks

^^

[petdico]

Dee Dee Ramone didn't write Chinese Rocks. Richard Hell did.

[jmitch30tube]

nah, I'm sure it is a johnny thunders song

[wallOfFireDoc]

@petdico

Hell and Dee Dee were in agreement that the song was mainly written by Dee Dee. "The reason I wrote that song was out of spite for Richard Hell, because he told me he was going to write a song better than Lou Reed's "Heroin", so I went home and wrote 'Chinese Rocks'," Dee Dee is quoted in Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk. "I wrote it by myself, in Debbie Harry's apartment on First Avenue and First Street."

[MarcLA13]

CAVE is always on fire when he Hits the Stage. When he is the US He performs on Late Night with David Lettermen.

[hygraed]

Who is that gal on the far left, with the cap? She is hot as hell.

[ChrisCummins]

i rape children, and then murder them.

[davos44]

thanks for sharing.

[ChrisCummins]

Wait - someone hacked me?? Sorry guys.

[ohchino]

yeah, your drum sticks

[ChrisCummins]

Your mommas drum sticks! (see what I did there? very clever, I'm sure you'll agree ;))

[ohchino]

Kid: cursing, lack of respect, desperatly intents of catching some others attentions (any others), cleverness on the loose, etc, are gonna dry your imagination and turn off your ligth. Find self stime in another ways, try hard with your music for example, good art is good tutor, and do it respecful an consistenly. Love.

[RileySalmon]

luv ya Nick!!!!!

[spatoverthetop]

what means "there she goes?"

[cytuber]

It means 'goodbye' my beautiful world :)

[MarkCooper1]

fuck it doesnt get any better than this!

[seanp5]

No, not much

[amgjc]

@MarkCooper1 Quite true!

[amgjc]

@MarkCooper1 Quite true! Though i've heard some perfomances here on you tube that might even be better if thats possible!

[TheLeonBM]

@MarkCooper1 you said it! fucking perfection!

[Imcounting06]

very stonesy. which is odd when considering the artist...

[Hjaldinho]

I love the backing vocals on this one - they sound like something from the 50's, but fit in perfectly

[iceonaboy]

Nick and the band are ace, specially love nature boy!

[johngalantini]

WHAT A TUNE!!! Feelin' it. This has fast become one of my favourite Seeds songs. The complete double album is spectacular.

[shihlunchang]

BBC is the Best.

[FearGN]

he is a genius

[tmdgaf123]

it seems that every nick cave performance on Jools Holland just pisses over the other acts, you can see in the credits and you think no way could any of hose bands top that and it keeps happening. Beautiful

[Kattles18]

I just want to move the world

I just want to move the world

I just want to move the world

I just want to move

[reverb1974]

This song was released the day my son was born! Bought it on 7" vinyl.

Fucking amazing

[aquamoon22]

Luv it! XXX

[RolandCasey]

my favourite lines is "Send that stuff on down to me".

[backbite3z]

Only saw this once, and this song stuck in my head. Still sing out loud ever once and a while. Favorite part is when he says "So if you got a trumpet, get on your feet, brother, and blow it

If you've got a field, that don't yield,

well get up and hoe it". Killer man, nuff said.

[bobbelibob]

It's a really great song. But I don't think the sound is too good.

[manwithoutabody]

I love it when he brings along the choir.

[kc7fys]

Nice to see a mandola--or octave mandolin--out there. This is a barn-burner. Really uses crashing waves instead of huge melodic moves. Amazing.

[docritchie2003]

wow! sing it nick. hes still got it. doc

[wreckedroy]

Superb!

Find a recording of Cabin Fever if you can. 1st time I heard it I came out in sweats and my hair stood on end!

Truly Amazing Band!

[genespleen]

On yer knees, folks!

[pupplesan]

I think this what they call Rock-and-Roll. It's REALLY good.

[VIRGINIEUX]

passionate.powerful.

[livedinbars]

Brilliant song. The way that chorus kicks its all heavy loud after the tende verses is just a phenomenal piece of arranging. All credit to the Bad Seeds.

[ImYourMistake]

God I love this song so so much.

[pollysugar]

He's so perfect. Seriously.

[juicebreak]

he so rocks!! his way of singing is absolutely great and unique!! <3

[hectorleon87]

excellent song take from a grat album

[earlfist]

One of the best songs of the last ten years and a classic performance too.Thanks,

[gazwood01]

goosebumps!!!!!

[ynard]

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! I just LOVE this song! Thanks a ton for this vid! \o/

[sleepingpirate]

This video has given me goosebumps. Very recently got into Cave's music through The Proposition and he's just incredible.

[mirekb84]

amazing power (-;

[TROUBLEWATER]

Now, he's the most important rocker

[minkiael]

very very fast from the level of the true rocker as: axl rose, freddie mercury, bono, and very fast from the audio quality of ac/dc ecc...that's the true rock!

[HighPisi]

lovely in another word :).

superb. un artist cum mai rar se naste!

[TheFeloniusMonk]

Wooohooo! So glad you posted this. I love this song and performance to bits.
