  • @lorenabegan Thanks for the really cheesy explanation. Thanks for turning this song into a Hallmark valentine's day card.

  • Personally, I just love the fact that Nick and the Bad Seeds can make such contradictory music. Lyrics and musical arrangement dont always seem to matter, it is the emotion that it encourages that I love. The ship song, and the mercy seat are two really good examples of this. In essence it seems to be a song of great love and joy, but the music doest reflect that. Sad and depressing yes, but equally joyful and hopeful as well.

  • i don't think this version is too bad. it may not the the most passionate of performances, but it's surely sung nicely and accompanied by good arrangements. i like the atmosphere of it.

    moreover, i think that by doing this version, nick cave tries to bring this sad and dark love song just a bit easier, a bit lighter. something which, i think, is not too bad an idea. in these times of global economical crices, bomb attacks and starvation, we might do with a bit of cheer.

    rejoice. be merry.

  • Have you heard the recent versions of straight to you ? Same thing can be said about that.

  • i love this song!!

    however this version is a tad thin...

    could be the fault of the audio tec or something like that i am not sure....

    like they phoned it in

  • The song doesn't jell very well with the rest of the setlist.

    It's difficult to take a song with a regal kind of charm like this and then do a stripped-down version of it.

    If Nick really felt a need to do a ballad, I think "In the Ghetto" might have worked a lot better.

  • Quite disappointed actually. I would have thought he would have put some feeling into it. Didn't see it. Seemed forced, as an oldie. Maybe trying to recreate in a new way, but didn't play out...

  • @diane869 Moustaches will do that to great things.
