[brianab31]

What a lovely, early bday gift! My bday is next month and I will certainly have to listen to this one! Brilliant post!

[1991leohdz]

is a stupid song

[sclapione]

@1991leohdz "VACACIONES EN LA PLAYA =) ..."

Well, jusdging by your likes, you should just fuck right off again, back to dull cunt videos ? !

[amutinyinheaven]

@1991leohdz fuck you

[tas0s19]

1 dislike... I blame Gaga for what happened to this poor guy's hearing.

[sclapione]

@tas0s19 Wrong video ? Are you 12 or something ?

[tas0s19]

@sclapione 1 Dislike on this song and i claim that this guy is listening to lady Gaga. Dont come asking my age if you are an illiterate moron. L2speak english.

[brianab31]

@tas0s19 I don't give a schiite how old you are. Nick Cave has far better things to do than to listen to Gaga. He listens to oldies, like the rest of us old fogies on this page. Why the hell are you even here? Move along and go listen to your trite, new crap. Leave us alone. We're listening to the good music from back in the day. We don't need/didn't ask for yer ass.

[gohel50]

@brianab31 Wow dude. I think he was saying that the person who disliked this video was a Lady Gaga fan, not Nick Cave.

[pessimystica]

[karl2393]

i was at his book signing in 1988 and asked about the dogchair, he said it was a type of chair with animal-like dogs feet though he said "you'll have to ask Roland S Howard about that". yeah, like i bumped into him all the time..

[lessthanpinochet]

Imagine if Gang of Four had two Andy Gills and Nick Cave singing for them...

[natureandchaos]

[mondebeau]

so good

[freudastaire]

Bye mighty Rowland, RIP

[cardigansarecool]

The intensity is ridiculous. I love it.

[SplitScreenSamba]

what is a 'dog chair'...?

I fucking love this song, it's just amazing.

[wrs6565]

whatever it is, it's "sensuous" and "immaculate" because it can count right up to eleven

Gotta love that red donkey cover art they came up with for the CD reissue of this. When the LP and EP were sold separately as "The Birthday Party" and "Hee-Haw" back around 1980-ish, they looked like crap. The new art matches the band perfectly.

[RyanDawley]

not even 7000 views.... underrated is an understatement

[rpaxon]

Wish my chair counted

[destruxiontotal]

HOY

[pacotabaco2]
