The only version of the song ive never been fussy on is the original. I like metallica's better than this one but this one is good. Better than nick cave. Just personal preference.
I'd actually quite like to hear Martin do some more Nick Cave songs after that. I wouldn't expect him to do as good a version as he did, I still prefer the original's filthy whisper to scream sexuality where you believe every word but this brings something different to it.
i keep coming back to watch this video cause i just can't get enough (no pun intended) this is not just sexy... this is SEX! gawd dayum Martin. i need a freakin' cigarette. this is hands down one the most raw and erotic videos on YT i can barely take it. Martin can be my Loverman anytime! so help me baby, oh yeah ;)

This song supposed to be from a gritty, grimy, psycho with bad teeth and putrid breath and what do we have here? -- an old gay man sounding like Boy George trying to sex it up. LOL
No hetero male could prefer this version to the original Nick Cave version. Impossible.
If you see yourself as hetero and like this version, it's time to come out of the walk-in wardrobe -- the game's over. Come out with your hair up.
@cytuber better do your homework before you talk about an artist the way you do. Besides, dear hater, no one says the original is worse than this cover, this is just an interpretation. You might like it or not, and if you don't I'm sure you can put it into more polite words... And if you just hate everything that's different, then maybe you're better off in your little box.
@jazzloopjazz Hey comrade, this is not Romania and you're not the Siguranţa Statului 'polite' police so. I can say what I like, here. Got it?
If you dont like what I say, go back to your own little box called Romania and come out when the idea of freedom of expression comes to that part of the world. OK?
@cytuber Yeah, you're probably from the "land of the free", so I guess that makes it ok for you to hide behind the idea of freedom of expression and the annonimity that internet provides so you can be rude. As for your ...advice on what to do if I don't like what you say, here's a thought: if YOU don't like a video, exercise your right to choose and just stop watching it. It's also an exercise in freedom. Got it?
Ok, that's the last 30 seconds I've wasted on you.
@jazzloopjazz said: "if YOU don't like a video, exercise your right to choose and just stop watching it."
You were hypocritical when you complained about me not being polite then made some impolite remarks and told me to go back to 'little box'. Apparently YOU don't have to be polite - only I do?
Now you're being a hypocrite again by telling me if I don't like a video, not to comment. Hey, how about this: If you don't like a COMMENT, don't reply
@AliceStaysInChains I wouldn't say Martin's voice is better. Nick Cave's voice is more soulful in my opinion. The original was a bit more darker and Cave's vocals are unquestionably more demonic than Gore's. Not a bad cover though, but it doesn't even touch Cave. This is coming from a big fan of Depeche Mode, Nick Cave, and Metallica.
I think everyone is aware that this is a cover and it's really a matter of personal taste whether you like this version or not. They obviously sound different so this version might not appeal to a Nick Cave fan, but I'd hardly call it a poor cover.
I really like this version. I first heard this song on the video with him and his daughter, then I checked out the original. It's really good, all versions. :) fab vid
As much as I like the way Martin sings it, It would be beyond awesome if Dave sang it with Marint harmonizing. This song could be the next DM hit single. Dave would bring more life to the song with his stage apperance
Wow... I wasn't sure what to think at first... but damn if that beat and the Depeche-y snyth background don't take this song to another place!
No disrespect to Nick Cave at all - he wrote it and it has awesome lyrics a great melody and a great all around sound. But this is really interesting. Cave + Depeche Mode = interesting and sexy.... and makes me think a little bit of NiN.
Nicht aufregen,Leute.Nick ist bestimmt net schlecht,aber wenn wir mal den Erfolg von DM mit dem Bekanntheitsgrad von Nick Cave vergleichen,sind wir DM-Fans auf der sicheren Seite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lmao, I came to check this video out after somebody mentioned it on the Nick Cave version.
...Laughable, Who is this guy?
I'll be honest, I didn't watch/listen to it all, because I COULDNT. I can't understand how people can call Metallica's version 'tasteless' or 'generic' - better guitars, better vocals... It takes the idea the original was trying to portray and conveys it in such a polished way.
Ok, I don't think no one does this song better than mr. Cave himself, but gosh, I didn't knew this video existed until about ten minuts ago, and I looove it!
nobody sings this song like nick does. nick put passion and you can really see that he KNOWS what he's singin' about. try to search 'nick cave bizarre festival 1996' ( watch?v=Ph0ohsh4wBc ) and see how he's INTO the song, only who wrote this knows that this is not about sex, this is about pain and the all 'let love in' album is about love that come in to hurt.
This song does the almighty Nick Cave oh so much justice than Metallica. Nick's version cannot be compared to this, while Metallica's version is quite tasteless.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Each to his own, but I honestly think that not Nick's or Martin's comes even close to Metallica's cover of this. Metalica's vocals are just so much better and the bass/guitar combo they got going gives me gooseys
I think this is the only song that Martin sings that has such a sexual charge. He has written such songs for Dave to sing but not for his own. Truly hope that SOTU contains a song similar to this one!
He sings with sexual charge beyond the lyrics, because even is a song written by Nick Cave, the original haven`t the sexuality that Martin`s version has.
A qustion of lust has a HUGE sexual Charge too, but in a sweet way
@marielbas oh yes, defintely a surge of sexual charge here in Martin's singing and performance. but can you imagine how he must be in in bed if he sings like this? good lawd, i can barely handle this vid cause it's so hot, i think i'd totally lose my mind if he's this sexual in the sack!
@metallibanger I know that Martin writes for himself and does not have Dave in mind, but what I meant to say is that the songs that Martin writes that have this agressive, sexual tone, are always being sung by Dave on this final studio version. This is logical, because Dave is after all the main vocalist and has a lower voice than Martin which suits such songs better. Nevertheless I can't help but wonder what it would be like if Martin allowed himself to sing main vocals on such songs.
@FuellingObsession Its considerably different from Loverman, but I think that Jezebel is the type song that you speak of. The dark, sensual side of it, is something that only Mart could do. Very powerful song.
escuche el cover de Metallica, esta bueno, pero no se si las letras van bien con tanto grito, pero tambien obvio escuché el original, uy la verdad, no es por darle el credito a Mart, pero le gana al original 10 veces, lo hizo bien perver y seductor al lado de Nick Cave que se manda esos gritos en la mitad que mucho no ayudan al tema,
Both versions are good, this is a interesting rendition.
