Nick Cave - Straight to you

[icanwaitanotherday]

freak me out I had no idea this was where Josh Groban got the song. I like this version a lot!

[mazzaradi22]

One of our best songwriters,without a doubt! this is one of my fav.s

[meestafeesh]

One of the greatest love songs ever written. Point fucking blank.

[jehouse]

Aw Nick, my love.

[mazzaradi22]

Very old footage,but I love this song,..(sigh)

[MangoStarrx3]

Awww Blixa jumping around in the background is so distracting from the song, he's just such a cute little guy here.

[guanaco772]

[elletindra]

Presumably THE best and most bad-ass-cool-looking Band in the eteral world!

[lordvaldomero89]

Hermosa canción

[luczki9]

Spoko kawałek

[DEVILSREJECT000]

"and the saints, they're all drunk and howling at the moon."

[katjohannsen]

Better than whipsnape ears to please the potions master (yeah that's sick poor Sev)

[sonicjay007]

[sonicjay007]

[gapcu]

got no idea what your talkin about my little sausage,but at least you were riled for a moment,( it kept you away from your mothers make up mirror, getting all gothed up like the crazy wildcat you are).

[katjohannsen]

I'm talking stalking the snarky, the witty type of sarcasm, the subtlety and the inimitable...none of which apply to you, I am afraid to say. I'm old enough to be a mother and hardly qualify as goth. Pffft.

[katjohannsen]

I'm madly in love with Blixa Bargeld... too bad for the Seeds he isn't a member any more... all the more Neubauten, I suppose. Been to Berlin too many times not to run across Blixa by sheer accident...

[gapcu]

get yourself a hobby ya muppet! hes probably fancies him because hes slightly famous and earns good money even though hes a bit of a bone idle layabout!

[sonicjay007]

my ears are alive..with this wonder!

[gapcu]

get yourself out the house a bit more then, whipsnade ears!

[sonicjay007]

and fucking 'you'stop fucking trying too get attention by this negative reply"

[sonicjay007]

ha you crazy kids..wow!!

[ecwfan02]

THIS GUY SUCKS FUCKIN DONKEY DICK!!!!

[animeloverandother]

what's your problem????

[steamboatkel]

how come every video i've watched in the past few months has some dude tellin another dude that their grammar isn't good enough......for what,youtube??grow up lads and enjoy the music.

[meridian676]

Simply because you end up lokking like an ass if you can't writw well, especially if arguing. Why don't you grow up???

[animeloverandother]

this is exactly what he is talking about...

[rumatera]

the best..

[kaeth75]

he is the one and only who can talk about love in all his meanings

[limelighter19]

chill man and respect his opinion

[JiS01]

The song is quite boring. Sorry, just my taste.

[jraia06]

JiS01, you're quite boring...

[JiS01]

Of course, I only wrote down one comment that existed of one sentence. If you me to tell a whole fackin story go ahead.

And if I was boring, you're even more boring due you poor one sentence.

[jraia06]

JiS01, you have horrifying sentence structure and grammar. Congratulations for making yourself look like a complete, fucking moron.

[Hirnlego999]

Well, if you like "jizz in my pants" then perhaps good taste is not one of your better features.

[69zebedee]

you are a dickhead kevin herbert. why do you feel the need to know it all? enjoy what you enjoy and let others do the same

[matty007007]

God he sounds amazing, i just happend to have his sister teaching me back on grade 6. Fully epic.

[Docia8]

his voice ... so amazing

[thedruggames]

love em... gotta!

[mansonx4xprez]

Wow. This song is so good. I could listen to it on repeat all day.

"I'll come running straight to you..."

[Chirooring]

Njae! Akane loine affisto! Mi naste kambes kiluo?

[adevezar]

Nicj cabe om his best.

[whosnext66]

cazzo quanti capelli che cavevi Nick..

il tempo passa per tutti..ho visto ultimamente Bargeld recitare in teatro,credo a Berlino..bravo..e bravi i bad seeds!

[kaeth75]

ohne worte,einfach genial...,vor allem wenn man text versteht...smile

[Berlinerin1234567]

Yeah, this muthafucka CAN dance. And he got sexier with every year on stage.

[KarmaNinja13]

Nick rocks... it is no surprise that Enrique Bunbury and Joaquin Sabina (just the greatest singer/song writers from Spain) mention him (and Tom Waits) in their songs. So, that being said: Nick rocks!!

[kevinherbert]

KarmaNinja: Cave & PJ Harvey et al are prime examples of how accountants have taken over the music industry globally since the early '80's..this music production line reached its peak with the American Idol et al concept..all music genres are based on tipping point (consumer brainwashing) marketing principles..Cave etc are about as counter culture & talented as Bananarama ..and of course Cave etc play the accountants' game for the money, sonny....you've been had, but of course won't admit it.

[kevinherbert]

What joke this is....talentless dweebs

[lxdavey]

lol you moron

[PlumbersCrac]

You really have no fucking idea about music do you? Now fuck off back into that dirty cunt you crawled out of.

[kevinherbert]

DearBumCrac: your debating skills are a good match for Cave's musical skills....arsewipe....

[PlumbersCrac]

Ahh yes, says he the troll. With ego shattering insults from ninth grade, like dweeb and arsewipe...

[kevinherbert]

What would you know about the ninth grade,dimwit...your puerile gynaecological reference surely indicates not only your lack of a basic primary education, but also the size of both your brain & your dick.....

[pfassett]

Come on now, let's not bring his dick into this.

[kevinherbert]

PlumbersCrac: What would you know about the ninth grade,dimwit...your puerile gynaecological reference surely indicates not only your lack of a basic primary education, but also the size of both your brain & your dick.....

[Hirnlego999]

Your the guy who has scatman john in your favorites and you talk about musical skills?

Get the f out of here

[birdiejoehoaks]

haha

you dont understand things.

[Aardvarked88]

"Good taste" is entirely subjective you pretentious fucking moron.

[kevinherbert]

Aard2grasp&varked: y not state the friggin' obvious, brainfade....can you walk while scratching a horse?

[Rodney17302]

@Aardvarked88 I don't know, I think I read in a magazine once that anyone who likes Nickleback has scientifically been proven to not have good taste.

[Aardvarked88]

@Rodney17302 Original.

[birdiejoehoaks]

what would you define as a musician then?

[alphabet123456798]

Two dogs fucking to a 7/4 beat. I'm not even joking: I WOULD buy that as art. I would like to know what that sounds like. Truly. Could you make that? You have good vision.

[kevinherbert]

alphabet12etc: sorry dude, I've only one 2 dogs fucking to a 5/4 beat in stock right now...should I order the 7/4 in 4 U?

[mansonx4xprez]

Oh, my God. Kevinherbert, seriously... go away.

[animeloverandother]

he's just so desperate to be noticed...the best to do is not giving a shit about him..kevin, lie down in a dark corner, please?

[JiS01]

Yes it does, it doesn't matter if you can play it good or bad, if you CAN play the instument, you can say you're a musician. It's just like sports; you don't have to be EXCELLENT in it or a freckin' pro to be called an athlete, everyone who does sports are athletes!

[Nuditeaf]

What!?

[davos44]

dude. Nick Cave and the badseeds are musicians because they play music rather well, stop trying to hate a man because he did something with his life and has made millions of people happy. you have done fuck all with your life and the only consolation is you get to act like the pathetic loser you are on youtube. Ive looked at your profile and your taste is music is shithouse.

[ForThePoets]

To listen to one of Nick Cave's songs sung as homage put in : " trend god is "

[lajdfloueren]

I wish I could delete my last post. Nick and Blixa are so funny in this video. The facial expressions and all the jumping! I should watch it every morning- it puts a smile on my face. I think they are buzzed in this aren't they?

[2teenah2]

Yes they arent funny arent they, its like that in almost evey video, you can find some humor

[lajdfloueren]

This video is so funny. It puts me in a good mood everytime I watch it. I love the song too!

[AzzieAvenell]

where can you find a man like nick... nowhere :(

[greatzulukamu]

There are no similar ways..i guess the others won't take part in the media or just simply won't sing. And i could continue the list with other things. You can be sure, there are more "silent" Nicks then loud like he is

[AzzieAvenell]

yes i agree... ive found that silent nicks can always be sensed... but nick-like creatures are pretty rare and often difficult to approach in the right way, a bit intimidating because they're always extremely perceptive and you dont want them to sense all your insecurities and how much you're aching to be with them...

[AzzieAvenell]

sorry i probably should have directed most of my reply to my therapist LOL, but yes you are right about there probably being more silent nicks than loud

[GoudaDhell]

you should read wuthering heights... a bit melodramatic but an informative read into the minds of two nick-like creatures who should have been together, with one selfishly denying that fact (but eventually realising the mistake) and sending the other into torment and thus all involved with them suffering the consequences.

[MRECOTEC]

Nick is no god. As I am sure he would agree that such things do not exist. Although I certainly do "Worship" his work. It should be known that omnipotence could NEVER produce such beauty and poetic juxtiposition that is the body of Caves work. Only through the lens conflict and contemt can these brilliant observations be made. The man has truly affected me in a profound way, admiration is wholly deserved .

[ombry]

nick cave godlike genius!

[hem0223]

oh the towers of ivory are crumbling,

and the swallows have sharpened their beaks...nick is a god that needs to be adored and worshiped...for his genius is all we may have one day

[skrobaczka]

popolskupijęsobieiżenięsię

[ElenaRocker]

they should build temples to nick cave and we all should worship him for being one of the only true song writers left in the world,it will be a sad day for original music when he dies

[hollyhockshangheavy]

At the risk of sounding Pretentious I discovered the importance of art in society after seeing Nick Cave. They give expression and form to feeling. Choose your feeling, choose your favourite artist/s. He gets it precisely right...

[lajdfloueren]

Love this..great video. Blixa is cracking me up in the back bouncing around

[saratato]

Love this song. Love Nick Cave. He's absolutely amazing live!!!

[Rigora]

Goodness is he hot or what!

[vandal2k6]

or what ...

[neraytha]

i can stop listening to it, its such a beautiful song.. :)

[davos44]

Haha, Howard New's version is FAIL. Cheap, poppy and nasty. Some people shouldnt be allowed near a recording studio.

[ravageproductions]

Howard New's cover is better - check it out

[grzesiukwck]

i checked, now, i'm gonna puke.

howard should stay at his village, not try to make career in showbiz.

[ani10881]

hahah, at first I was thinking "who the hell is howard new"? Puke is right a hundredfold. You can't compare the two, really

[samoht21]

The two versions are both too different to compare; one languid and the other poppy. It would be like comparing Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah to Jeff Buckley's.

[senseideano]

Poor cover by Howard New, total crap. Wouldn't say it is quite similar to comparing Cohen's Hallelujah to Buckley's actually, but only in the sense that there is no comparison, in favour of the original writer of course on both occasions.

[subby33]

Nah. Buckley's version way better.

[senseideano]

Nah Buckley is overrated and so is his version of Hallelujah. In terms of covers, Wainwright's is far superior but that is besides the point. It is not my intention to sound cold but the legacy of Buckley has been disproportionate to his limited talent largely because of his tragic death at such a young age. Anyhow enough talk of mediocre artists.. Roll on November and Nick Cave in Manchester! :)

[subby33]

Its kind of funny to me because I didnt even know Buckley was dead when I first heard his album around . . . year 2000 or so and I fell in love with it immediately. I think he's great regardless . . . but I respect your opinion :-). I love Rufus . . .but I hate his version of Hallelujah. I think Jeff had an amazing voice and feeling . . . just how i feel . . . fo reals ;-)

[R0SECR0IX]

I'm not sure that Buckley's version of Hallelujah is the best (just because the original is so good), but in fairness he was making pretty big waves even before his death. Oh hang on...

[JamesHerald111]

How dare you sir, even dare compare this nobodies version to Nick Cave.

I feel insulted.

[Hirnlego999]

bah, sounds like everything else, a karaoke version, or one of those lousy idol programs.

[ElenaRocker]

simply amazing.doesn't get any better than cave,pure insanity yet so beautiful.

[voulcan]

bravo!

[cythera4]

he is very hot.

[ChiuvanaInHeaven]

tolles lied!

eins der besten von ihm!!!

ich liebe seine art zu tanzen=)

[astroman287]

should have been bigger then they were.

[pxvboy]

The slow steady decent into drunkenness is such a pleasure to watch ......... with Nick looking like a cross between a young werewolf and a crazy dancing clergyman

[sapatilhasanjo]

May God blees mighty Nick as well as the "good seeds"! Just listen The Carny, Nick Cave's best track!!!!

Rod "The portuguese"

[kaaytee]

This is too fucking good.

[adhefezio]

No sé cuantas veces he visto este video en estos días, supongo ke lo veo unas 3 veces diarias, excelente... simplemente excelente...

[drxixo]

buffff

[villesangel69]

great song!

[BelleandSebby]

Blixa, I want you and your funky hat.

[nina257]

They have the licence to kill.

[iiiiiddddd89]

this is the most amazing song of nick cave for me. It is so sad and optimistic and his voice so perfect to describe what he is trying to say

[larissawillems]

man, i love Nick Cave

[1apart1]

This song is brilliant!! Henry's Dream is possibly my favourite Bad Seeds album. This and Loom Of The Land are incredibly moving. Also, his hair here is soooo long!! lol!

[AndyUnwritten]

I never noticed it before but he looks a lot like Nick Drake.

[LinYee]

I never get tired of watching this. His dancing skills are amazing, haha! Mr. Cave is the best!

[andboy]

His skills match his voice and writing...

[R0SECR0IX]

Him and Ian Curtis -- best dancers ever. Though I think Cave might have the edge...

[tribehzor]

This one is my fav.

[Hellothereboyos]

I love Nick ;D

[logancinque]

Nick here's a sort of mix between a young werewolf and a crazy dancin priest... lol

[burakiswatching]

:D  .

[mljohnson72]

Tool?! Nah. He's his own kingdom.

[World2008rain]

nick cave is one of the best but his videos mostly suck...

if he would of did a "tool" thing and did like an animation in all his videos he would be even more a legendary god.

needs stuff more mysterious and dark in video representation imo.

[ratgrinder61]

world2008rain,go and write some songs,do some videos,write music for 30 odd years,get punched up,tattooed and locked up and we'll see wot you come up with ok? not a lot,I suspect.

[World2008rain]

i could make better videos for him... so uhh ya.

you suspect wrong.

doesn't take much to video him singing on stage lol.

i don't care what anyone says his videos suck.

theres no reason to be a fanboy.. you can like nick cave without liking every single thing he does.

[ForThePoets]

Nick, this one goes out to you. "Trend Reversal God is", God is in the House

[senseideano]

Nick Cave on the 25th of November in Manchester, followed by Leonard Cohen 5 days later... One of the best weeks of my life ;)

[ktulu125]

peace and love from italy,

nick 4ever

[billywjr73]

I can't believe I've missed this guy... just awesome.....

[Adventurestud]

I like how Blixa doesn't even bother to stand.

Ho hum.

[Laulie98]

I love his voice...it's so deep and...awesome.

[rumsaudomyandlash]

nick cave is the king, im going to his concert in san fransisco(i thin kthats were it is, got the tickets already) fuck you people who call him goth and prince of darkness, thats fucking ozzy osboun get the two seperated from each-other

[24sim]

your absolutly right...he is such a musicaly talented person. you just have to appreciate the dark and mysteriousness of his music.. for an artist to write his own songs and sing them is what its all about..not this pop stuff that is musically cosmetic.. its deep and meaningful..

[rumsaudomyandlash]

exactly

[nina257]

overwhelming gap between him (with a few others) and all the others.

[milirod]

Nick is HOT

[milesaway2411]

he's my favourite singer of all time. and this son GOD this song....

[marianotrecaman]

he has just been beeing a legend for about 25 years

[lexipexi121]

ARGH!!!

i hhaattee it when people call nick cave goth/prince of darkness/king of dark rock...its all STUPID! and not true hes far to clever and amazing for those meaningless labels...he doesn't even like it I saw him on Jools Holland talking about it.

He is simply amazing:)!

Ellavoid has it!!:-)

xXx

[aidendouglass]

anybody else notice Nick Cave looks like a goth Brad Pitt? Just in the mouth.....

He is the raddest!

[dsignrdane]

at first i was like brad pitt - wtf?!

but you're right i totally see it now in the mouth and eyebrows. that's so weird ;p

[Linnsi79]

Love,love,love.....

[sarahsmile666]

He is sooo young here! I love Nick!!

[ellavoid]

This is a great video they go off stage to 'relax' while the performers do their stuff and come back happier each time!

[queentoni22]

they actually got drunker and drunker (the band) as the film clip went on! Waiting for lighting, directors ect! Watch carefully and you can really tell. Im a huge fan. Would leave my husband for Nick - prince of darkness!

[ellavoid]

Er..that's what I meant! And he is not a'prince of darkness' or a goth.

[queentoni22]

Oh get over yourself! Take it all a bit serious don't you!

[aanleunwoning]

leave him now! You obviously have little interest in your husband. But I know you will wait until the next feasible option comes along...... predictably enough.

[queentoni22]

What the? You fruitbat!  It is a fantacy to leave my hubby for Nick Cave. Twit. Nicks probly a wanker in real life, but he makes fab music!

[HandsOfMystack]

So sad that im in my last trimester at this time where he just gave 2 concerts in Denmark. 1 at Roskilde festival with his garage band and with bad seeds a month prior to that! If i wasent pregnant i had been there SO much!

[dsignrdane]

god i wish he was on tour

[tejr93]

He is now, check ticket master or something, he's coming to Toronto in October and he's touring throughout the states before than

[dsignrdane]

i checked and he's not coming straight to me:( but he's going to Portland, OR - wtf!?!

[tejr93]

hahaha thats shitty

and also was that pun on purpose?

hes not coming straight to you?

shaaaawing

[johngalantini]

you said it man.

[kingboon]

at 2;43 blixa gives nick a very loving look.

[LizzyT123]

oh my god I love his hair

[xxHelloshellOxx]

oh i know!!

[TheCoffeeCreature]

The video's a little silly, but I love this song.

I agree with ratgrinder - maybe you have to be really in love to fully appreciate it. I know I'm fully appreciating it right now.

[ratgrinder61]

I think ya gotta be really in love to appreciate this song,I'm gettin' old and I'm really in love.....at last...........

[Wowbagger86]

It's like there is "intermission entertaiment" everytime Nick Cave doesn't sing :P

[declan332]

does it get any better than this? The greatest song of all time...even better than the weeping song. Tears flowing....I love it! so real I love it!

[grbavicaNS]

R E S P E C T !

I love all from you Bad Seds MF bad fuck.

Life for that.....

[o0claudia0o]

This is so good yet so cheesy. hahahaha

[pavoslayer]

beautiful song

que hermosa cancion!!!!!!!

[cazale2008]

stupenda...anche se preferisco "are you the one....",capito si?

[bakersakter]

whoa calm there freack deaky

[trollfinger]

Blixa , what a legend. I like the stuff he does with Einsturzende Neabauten. Type that in and a song called sabrina. Brilliant
