Roy Slaven & HG Nelson interview Nick Cave - part 1

[Lieu3C4]

5:31 I found it quite illuminating to discover that "innocent" originally means unhurt, and to realise the human frame is fully able to recover from all sorts of incidents in life. That one cannot please all the people all the time does not make one, no matter originally open hearted one might be, of an increasingly evil stature as one ages, adventures, and goes on in a world full of duality and choices.

THANK.GOD. for a pair of interviewers who actually knows what the hell they are talking about.

[staggersu]

seeds getting stronger by smoking

[redxross]

@fallintothefrog Cheesy yes I'd call it Velveeta, I want this for my ringtone!

[godzillavsgundam]

what word are they using to describe the cigarettes? starts with a "D"...almost sounds like "diary"...

[canawormstv]

@godzillavsgundam durry

[mgef]

@godzillavsgundam the word is "Durry" - I don't know the background, but it's Australian slang for cigarettes

[redxross]

What an interview, I see why he left Australia

[WaltHawtin]

@redxross ? what does that mean?

[redxross]

@WaltHawtin I mean that the interviewer's questions and tone are a low grade of bar-room talk.

[Amunication]

it's strange seeing nick cave nervous lol

[DeafFret]

When was this? 98? 2000?

[Gpoet6]

a bit stoned there nick, still one of the best interviews :)

[bertiethetoupee4]

"Fundament".

[bertiethetoupee4]

Do you want me to answer that? Laughed so hard at that. Love Nick!

[whiteduke76]

What brand of "Irish cigarettes" is that?

[DoubleIvan]

Those are 'Major' cigarettes. Associated with gambling addicts, the unemployed and old widowed men. Lovely.

[trollfinger]

My dad smoked 60 of those a day. I remember when I started smoking I'd steal one or two on him a day. Within two weeks I had a smokers cough like a grannys death rattle.

[RattleTattle]

Disillusioned after you saw the ballerina's gee?

[youflyfly]

Gear. Not gee.

[AussieKen1972]

These are great videos!

[SporkBoy33]

How stoned is Nick Cave?! :P

[616Hell]

"Smoking is very good for you." I smoke 5 Pack A Day.

[77missboo]

not anymore he doesn't, check out some new interviews. He seems happy being older!

[wiremu]

no, he is just bored to tears by these two assholes who are trying to sound intelligent and amusing, but failing.

[sonicfarce]

the intro song is hilarious. i want the lyrics so i can sing it in the shower.

[SmokinWillie]

''can you smoke while you're asleep?''

[demonsbutterfly]

Roy Slaven is the man. Pure Brilliance. Good sport Nick

[StuC5]

Enjoy this morsel of Aussie outrageousness while you can. It's like will never be seen again on TV without someone being sued or heavily fined for it.

[BloodyVagabond]

"smoking is very good for you" hehe

[johnacrob]

Hahaha awesome interview! It's good to see he has a sense of humour.

[Cestlavenus]

I love it! I spent half the interview trying to figure out when he was joking and when he was being serious. :P

[nightimer]

You see, Roy and HG always upstaged their interviewees and *some* interviewees probably dislike it. The fact that a guy might be a successful or respected musician does NOT good TV chatshow fodder make! ;-)

[stevewasawalrus]

pretentious, but still a good guy, fucking great songwriter

[aasne90]

wow was that......a smile?

[hotchrislee]

It's good to see Nick smile!

[sp45ih]

yes, very refreshing indeed

[buckbeestreet]

i dont' know if I agree that life "makes us evil" necessarily but I think it's interesting he says he's always felt old. I've often felt the same way.

[thewisconsinmoosecha]

Who are that charmismatic pair?

[chrisd3819]

they're a pair of comedians from austrlia

[TeenageWildlife]

out of all the Cave interviews i've seen, he seems to get on the best here

[sweetdeanna]

wow...

that was great!

[Paaaaaaaaaaap]

When was that? When did it happen? So cavesque...

[barrozin]

He's so deliciously handsome here !

[sp45ih]

Yes, he is!

[MontyPropps]

Excellent interview! Ta for posting this!

[bjorns]

wow, that was a really good interview, better than expected - thanks
