  • @mmarshall111 videos of me and my freinds breaking fences? ive actually got 0 videos on my profile tvm :).

  • I love Nick Cave, he is a true artist!

  • brilliant

  • this is badass....

  • This video is soooo bad lol. I really do like Nick Cave, but a lot of what he does is just plain cringe-worthy.

  • @signogun

    I always though that was on purpose. Stagger Lee video etc etc....

  • The song that officially got me into Nick Cave's music, classic.

  • im guessing he chose jack the ripper as the title for this song because the jack the ripper atrociously murdered five women. please nobody type in jack the ripper in google images......im warning you

  • What's he singin about the viper for, sure that lad's nothin but a feckwanker.

  • nick cave and most so called punk stars are just arrogant assholes who have no real talent

  • @mikekasher11 Besides showing great versitily in songwriting, punk, goth, ballads, and laments for example. Nick Cave has also written novels. He also wrote the screenplay for "The Proposition" which has been criticly hailed, and in the opinions of many is one of the best "westerns" filmed. Unlike many, his career did not falter when he stopped using heroin, rather it gained focus. He is very dutiful to his family, often seen with and photographed with his wife and children. Research

  • @doylesarahpal

    I heard he wrote a screenplay for Gladiator 2.

  • @trollfinger After Gladiator 1 Russell Crowe asked the studios to have Cave write the sequel. He had Maximus pushing the gods around in the after-life, getting reincarnated, defending christians, and other shennanigans. Understandably the studio passed. I think their actual words were, "What the fuck?"

  • exactly what cd is this on?

  • @dsignrdane Henry's Dream, 1991. Many people would tell you it's his best album. It's definitely the most consistent. Every song is solid and it fits together smoothly.

  • a woman like that is like having a venomous spider lost and loose in your house..you just don't where you're gonna find it.

  • i think if Nick Cave was'nt a singer he would definately been a serial killer!

    i think the police should keep an eye on him..because he definately is not a well person!

  • @MyYuToobCHANNEL Hey. Before you go on thinking that for too long, realize, this video here is very old, so, his life and attitudes are already well documented. Let us say, Kurt Russel portrays a serial killer. Is Mr. Russel a threat to you? Or, is he skilled at fooling people? So, now YOU, can keep an eye on Mr. Cave and know everything he does. The police are busy with their own fantasies.  I'm sorry to interrupt your chance to condemn things today, but attitudes of paranoia kill life.

  • what's fucking happen here? Nick Cave is a fucking genious!

  • guys there is no point of this bitching,you fucking waste of space,fuck the lot of you,i'm off now to listern to bill hailey and the comets,get some head fuck music,roll on bill,you fucking wakko.

  • Hey (Royalhemorrhoid)kris21: You mentioned that all you can do to Nick Cave is cut yourself: May I suggest that either A) you quit bashing because you don't like something, or B) Keep listening to Nick Cave, preferably in the kitchen with a fillet knife. Thanks.

  • If only he didn't rely on auto tune so much... ;)

  • e nick cave is cool

  • Is the guy at 0:08 Blixa Bargeld of Einsturzende Neubaten? It sure as hell is.

  • @moparmonster1965 Um, Blixa is in the Bad Seeds. Where you been?

  • I think this song might be referring to the "William Gull" theory of Jack The Ripper i.e. Jack was really Sir William Gull, personal physician to Queen Victoria, who killed his prostitute victims as they knew of an unauthorized royal baby (read From Hell by Alan Moore). In this case, Queen Victoria would be the woman who rules Jack's house with an iron fist, and it would be one of the victims who screams when Jack tries to give her a kiss (of death).

  • Hey just enjoy the Music...

    and Mr. Kingkris21

    Can YOU tell me what real Music

    I don t think so.

    None can do this. Because everybody likes different things and you have to respect that.

    Grow up little Child

  • whys it so hard to love both nick and aerosmith? im a kid and i enjoy both. *sigh* its just music

  • Why it so hard for people to make a useful and relevant comment. Oh, and Nick Cave isn't "kid's music". I don't think you really not what you enjoy.

  • Geez, my frustration with self-absorbed teeny boppers who ruin comment sections of every YouTube music clip is messing up my literacy. The above should contain a question mark at the end of the first sentence, and the word "know" in the second sentence where "not" is.

  • @xreddragonx Fail.

  • yep i did knock down a fence i did that 3 YEARS AGO FAGGOT, why dont you do something fun with your life insted of cutting your self to this boring drone

  • Wait a minute--------are you saying Nick Cave is boring? He is many things and you may like all, many or none of them -----but BORING?????

  • Comment removed

  • @kingkris21 you have that backwards

  • @kingkris21 WTF DO YOU SAID ??? SHUT THE FUCK UP !!! YOU RETARDED !!!

  • @kingkris21 Well , if you really think something so stupid as that, I won't be surprise if you also enjoy cut yourself ... What just make sure you're a sick MF !!! How old are you ??? 10, 12 ??? I bet you're an "EMO", aren't you ???

    Nick's music isn't depressing, you certainly are !!!

    His songs are poetic, beautiful, intelligent and exciting !!!

    However, to get that you must to have a brain ... Grow up kiddo !!!

    And, yes... Don't play with fire, ok mama's boy !!!

  • im 18 :S iv known about nick cave since i was five and used to like it until i noticed that it just made me depressed, ITS SHIT i listen to good stuff now like metallica, motorhead slayer, iron maiden, real music unlike the depressing bouncy drone that is this, there nothing poetic about wanting to kill yourself :D

  • you need to learn to appreciate different genres

    I'm into all the bands you just listed, but I also love stuff like this as well

    good music is good music, simple as that

  • Wow, that's funny. You listened to to Nick Cave when you were five, then grew up into "sophisticated" music like cock rock thrash metal. Very cute comment. Entirely pointless here, but still cute.

  • @kingkris21 Are you a fucking retard? You dumb mother fucker. You can't blame nick cave for you being a depressive faggot. And as far as your "real" music goes, Metallica? slayer? What the fuck retard. I hope you die.

  • @kingkris21 I'm pretty sure Metallica covered Nick Cave. Way to go you poofta.

  • @353jackster faggot

  • @kingkris21 I Have a feeling I'm going to regret asking this. Well here goes; if you hate Nick Cave's music so much, then why are you listening to the music on Youtube?. I mean if you can't stand it, then why not go else where and listen to the music you like and leave the fans in peace?. I'm not attacking your opinion of the guy, if you don't like him or his music then that's your opinion and your entitled to it. However I don't see the point in you hanging around attacking others.

  • @Sovvolf i typed in jack the ripper and it came up with this insted of the motor head version which i was looking for and i checked it out and it sucked

  • @kingkris21 Fair enough, you didn't like it. Well that's your opinion and I wont hold it against you. I just think you'd be doing better things with your time then arguing about it with the fans. Go and listen to the Motorhead version and enjoy your music (Motorhead are a good band and I can see why you'd like them) . Posting a comment against a piece of music on Youtube will only get you grief from the fans. A waist of your time if you ask me.

  • @kingkris21 So? 

  • @prilofx sooo what? you just said so, wtf is that spose to mean?

  • @kingkris21 so what to your big list of whatever. And, so what.... you have all the Metallica ever pressed. Master of Puppets is a depressing album. Listen to the lyrics. You know, those words n stuff that often go with music.

    Go cut myself? Go tell Mama, little boy. I got bondage pants older than you are.

  • @prilofx hot.... but seriously give me a song, all the songs on the album are full of energy, they make you feel angry, not like this where it makes you wanna hate your life and cut yourself, id rather be a little boy then (if you call a 6.2, 18 year old that) then some old bag like yourself, at least i dont start fights to try and feel young again

  • @kingkris21 actually this song makes me want to dance. I don't know what your problem is. Plenty of energy in it. It's funny as hell, on top of it all.

  • @prilofx cutting yourself while drinking spirits dosent count, theres energy in it, its just depressing

  • @353jackster nob

  • @kingkris21 if you think Cave is depressing, you haven't listened much to the lyrics on Metallica's "Master of Puppets" album, have you?

  • @prilofx i have metaliicas entire caterlog, every album and single, everything they ever brought out have listened to it, its great i love it, not depressing, name one song, its all thrash metal, heavy metal isnt depressing like this shit, go cut yourself

  • @kingkris21

    This isn't depressing. It's storytelling. Fair enough you don't like it, but everyone has their own opinion of what music means to them. To me, Nick Caves music sounds like it wants to come into my house try feel up my girlfriend, drink all my whiskey and punch me in the face.

    Check out "Papa won't leave you Henry" One of my favourites. There's a lot of humor in his songs too.

  • thats depressing, nick cave is a fucking mess, all of his songs are sloppy and depressing they dont make you feel happy or angry so they make you sad, btw who says story telling cant be depressing?

  • Ich liebe diesen Mann!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • You can take the Bad Seed out of the Birthday Party, but you just can't take the Birthday Party out of the Bad Seed. Thank god for that. Greatest singer / performer of all time.

  • love nick cave he is awesome

  • 0:44 Blixa - OH MAI

  • blixa is working it

  • The fork made me laugh!

  • Nick is soooooo sexy and articulate in this....intense..passionate and bloody the best thing to create lyric in this country..

  • DAMN! :O

    the hairs in my neck are standing up straight.

  • My favourite track..  Simply awesome!

  • what they need somewhere in here is just a little snippet of Link Wray's Jack The Ripper

  • Link wray's jack the ripper???? tell me more?

  • It's an entirely different song, but it's what he was known for aside from Rumble. Check it out, it's 50's delinquent rock

  • This band is the shit!

  • Mmm. That's some good Bargeld.

  • Fantastic...thank you!!!

  • Blixa and Nick, is there any better combination

  • noes!

  • Bauhaus + The Birthday Party, is up there as well!

  • Luv the birthday party!! agree...bahaus ...heard a liitle...seems cool...

  • mitico!!

  • Nick Cave is a f*ing hot beast. i would die to have such a man for an hour...:)

  • You should call me up rather, christian and married well they're not good for beasting.

  • Comment removed

  • @Fushia1992 hahaha me too he IS a hot beast

  • LOVE THIS BAND.

  • Interesting...... Didn't Morrissey write a song of this same name?? I am an acolyte of both these great, great men

  • he did and i agree lol Morrissey total legend and even though i dont like Nick Cave you cant ignore his music

  • nick and morrissey are both legends,

    i love the smiths more than the bad seeds, because more mellow

  • at that time the clip was a very good hint sometimes you see a little blink of a knife or whatever they want to let us know?/

    MUTE

  • He's so intense. I love artists who don't hold back and share their deepest darkest moments with the public through their art.

    Also, he is one of the very, very few men I'd sleep with. It must be the long girly hair and the baby face.

  • While I dont know that I would sleep with him, but I do quite agree with his intensitity. Him and him band are amazing!

  • @mokkshaa - Your profile says you're "transgendered." Are you a male or a female? I mean in biological terms, not in imaginary ones.

  • @mokkshaa I'm getting bald, but i have a baby face, so would you sleep with me?????????? Just kidding, unless you ARE girl....... :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D Greets!!!

  • jajaja

  • Now this is how music should sound and how a music video should look like... What a musician...

  • music is music man, doesn't matter how it's made, it's all about how it affects the listener....

  • His hair looks cool when not slicked back - shame he didnt do it more. I like his artistic style: lyrically, vocally, visually. A real hero of mine.

  • real film by B.bargeld M.Harvey enzo.

    no comment MUTE STUMM

  • one of the best pieces from mr. cave.

    really MUTE are no more words exeptMUTE noch einmal..

  • which album this from? Best lyricist known to man.

  • Henrys dream (1992)

  • I don't know why you posted this video with comments enabled if your gonna remove peoples comments? Who cares what people say thats why its called free speech. Whoever posted this is an IDIOT! but I do like this song

  • no such thing as free speach

  • St Nick, I fucken love you!

  • this video is very calming for me right now

  • me too

  • maybe nick didnt like the video himself. artists dont have 100 percent control over everything

  • Comment removed

  • Perfect!! Really nice and black! Great voice!!!!! Just brilliant!!!!

  • i love nick cave in this period! his hair is amaizing! he is perfect!

  • Nick Cave sings about his woman wearing the pants in the relationship and never giving him any and he's 100x more badass doing it than any macho male asshole singing about how he "don't take no crap from women" or whatever. Ladies and gentlemen, this is punk, long live Nick Cave.

  • @therebelwaltz - "Macho assholes"? I hope you have an equally dismissive term for the stupid cunts that screech their empty little heads off in all those "riot grrl" bands.

  • @therebelwaltz therebelwaltz, I love Nick Cave, but you are a moron.

  • my dad wouldent let me watch this video when i was younger becasue of all of the knives and blood. hahaha i still watched it when he wasnt around. i was naughty 6 yearold hahaha

  • I am Fan off Nick..This clip i am sorry to tell its for me bad..!

  • "...She screams Oh, Jack The Ripper! Everytime I try to give the girl a kiss..."

  • wicked

  • Love this video! Thanks for uploading.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh, you forgot "the".

  • This isn't a cover, it's just got the same name.

  • And the same stucture.

  • lol they all look soooo pretty here!

    And Blixa is so hot!

    Love this song...ye! ye! yeeee!

  • Aaah, nice song! Finally! :)

  • all we can do is immitate what we know

    everyone is a product of what the world is

    a product of our ancestors

    nick cave doesn't even sound like jim morrison

    and people are much too different to make such blunt comparisons

  • leave the dying in their beds

    wash off the still born baby heads

    send letters off to souls who've gone away

    Eat always the sick ones first

    so lend no chance them giving birth

    you're safe if you don't hear a word i say

  • I think nick's his own man, I'm pretty sure he doesn't give a shit about trying to be anyone else. Jim Morrison is an absolute legend but they both stand out on their own.

  • Who are you trying to be?

  • I dont think he's trying to be jim morrison in a pure copy cat or theivery sense but I wouldnt be surprised if nick listed him as an influnce or was a fan.

  • are you serious?? i've never thought nick was anything like jim. if that' the best comparison you could come up with, you need to broaden you musicical tastes.

  • Nick must look back on this video and think he was crazy. =P But it doesn't matter. His fans love it. =]

  • Nicks always wrote like this though. He's always been literate, after all he did write a book and his father was a literature professor.

  • nao tnho palavras fabuloso

  • thank you God for creating this man!!!

  • I adored this from the first time I heard it

  • idiot

  • Great as always. Nick Cave's work is full spectrum.

  • Where??? In the search field!!! But then what?? Put in "Trend God is" of course to hear Trend Reversal's God is in the House sung in honour of Nick Cave THE Master!

  • THE Master, or A Follower of Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits etc. - go hear Dylan's New Pony, then this and Loverman. Or Tom Waits' "Gotta Keep the Devil Way Down in the Hole" It's an ongoing evolution.

  • Mean Woman BLues Revisited.

  • nick cave is a beast.

  • a lovely one

  • Nick at his most gorgeous, truly!!  Thank you for this amazing post!!

  • LOL! Even Blixa's hair looks cool.

  • Blixa's hair is always cool. ;D

  • iha jaska

  • i agree that blixa needs to return, but regardless, nick cave is god

  • They just aint the same without blixa.. hope he comes back.

  • the best bit on this video is the elegant head-turn provided to us by mr Blixa, on 0:06; elegant as only Blixa himself could have done it.. yet i love this song, true rocker, go mr Cave!<3

  • to whom it may concern,

    i like to eat fish and chips!

    yours sincerely,

    JACK THE RIPPER!

    LOL!
