If your just discovering Nick Cave now you've got a Pandoras Box to uncover, keep searching
he's a once in a generation singer/songwriter and perfomer/ scriptwriter, he should be classed as a national treasure in Aus but very few here (in Oz) give him the accolades he deserves, we are a small minded country obsessed with the U.S. culture. Thank God for Nick, If you believe in that sort of thing.
i always imagined this song to be some strange obscure Orbison-era rock song when I was young and heard it in Dumb & Dumber. Since then, I've grown a lot. And this song cannot get rid of its tinge of nostalgic/esoteric mystery
hey peoples! i work hard on my creative videos and get very low views. so PLEASE check out my videos. be sure to check out SEEDS, and SOFTLY CONFINED (COOL stop motion animation) and much more! thanks! :) (subscribe if you like)
Yes, we all know what movie brought me here, but, still it was my choice to look Nick Cave up, nad besides, in Harry Potter you can only hear the very ending of the son O'children, but because of Nick's awesomness, I loved the song, and now am the owner of ALL Nick Cave albums. And yes, I don't give a god damn fuck, he's homosexual or not. This man truly is AWESOME!
@albinasamara - Sadly Nick Cave isn't very wide spread it seems. Although he has music in quite a few movies. (This one was played in one of the Scream movies), he also had a song in a Shrek movie. However, when I was in theaters seeing Harry Potter and heard Nick Cave I was like YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nick cave is nick cave: a true poet,a great songwriter...and his bands-the boys nextdoor,the birthday party and the bad seeds-are fuckin' great musicians!!!!
Hey, I guess they're right. Senior citizens, although slow and dangerous behind the wheel, can still serve a purpose. I'll be right back. Don't you go dying on me!
Lyrics are open to interpretation but to me it quite clearly sounds like making a seedy deal ! A deal with the devil as it where, only I don,t believe in religion!
@shakeAbooty88 This song was made up of ad-libbed lyrics that were designed as a place-holder in the studio until he wrote something he was happy with. He just never changed them. A lot of Nick Cave's lyrics are like that. He's just so good with words that even his nonsense is better than some lyricists "masterpieces." But you're a twat for even using the words "capitalist war enslaver." Just so you know.
@ratpoisoner666 I'm not wrong. What I first wrote was not the entire story in that what i wrote wasn't ALL it's about, but like all great writing, you can stretch the "story" in this lyric to several hundred (or thousand, depending on your own imagination) pages.
I don't think it's twattish of me to have used "the capitalist war enslaver".
"It" doesn't exist as a quantifiable object, but we do fight wars for the benefit of those most powerful and influential, not for the good of our country.
@shakeAbooty88 I was listening to an interview with him only 2 days ago where he described writing this song. It was completely ad-libbed. It was not a song about "the capitalist war enslaver." He described it as "nonsense." But it's easy to read hidden meanings into his lyrics that simply aren't there. He's just that good.
@ratpoisoner666 triple j froths on this cunt (and that is probably the only reason u like him). Anyway what im trying to say is that he is a fucking poof
@billllllyyyyyy1 That poof used to front the Birthday Party. The Birthday Party were psychotic. He used to kick the front rows of his audience with pointed boots. That he would kick an idiot like you in the head and continue on with the song like you were nothing is why I like him.
I have been a fan of Nick Cave for awhile. I met him in Toronto, where he signed his book for me. I wrote a review of The Birthday Party on my blog. Please check it out.
@svenlittlecross me 2. and Nick Cave songs help me wake up try get back with God. YaSHUA is the first cause and the last effect after all. i like a child of a lesser god but i hoping the Creator of the creation will adopt me use me for His purpose and glory. aint gwan be easy cos way of the trangressor is hard. fuck it if even us fallen angels are for Christ it cant be long now til the end.
i bought god is in the house at a thrift store a few years back and i have been in love ever since. all my friends hate it but it is MAGIC to me!!!!!!!!!
fuckin hell he stole the show tonight at alaxandre palace. he's amazing, he works the floor like no other brother tother slumber umber number poop wowzers yeahhhhhh
If you take the blue out of the red, white and blue of the American flag, black and white stars with bars, would that be more true to the way it grew to?
The other day I was feeling sad because I know there is so much good music that I haven't heard because I just didn't know. Well, this is one more awesome song I stumbled across.
