  • this is his Bone Machine's album

  • One of the most demented and, er, murderous songs I've ever heard. Love it!

  • Comment removed

  • don't shoot i'm a man unarmed!! how crazy can that be??? lol!! i'm glad nick has music!! i'd be afraid if he didn't!! lol!

  • Like a Madonna painted on a churchhouse wall in whale's blood,...

  • "With an ashtray as big as a fuckin' really big brick I split his skull in half"

    Gets me every time.

  • Clearly a Meisterwerk of the genre.

  • I want to see that '' really fucking big brick'' lol

  • In my opinion this man is a genius of our times. Shame he found god. To me this song is possibly the most magnificent song ever written. I love singing it at the top of my voice :-)

  • That poor bar floor.

  • would make a great movie this and the curse of millhaven :-)

  • super cool psycho...lol

  • Curse of Millhaven and O'malley bar gave me some strange and evil toughts...

    Cave is master, Stephen King of music!

  • and with an ashtray big as a fucking really big brick, i split his skull in half.....

    Says it all.

  • Fucking best song ever!!

  • baddest fucking song ever

  • @meab12 I don't know, Stagger Lee is pretty bad.

  • @tacomatech quite right!

  • Probably Nick Cave at his best...Awesome song, like watching a short film :)

  • I shot that MOTHERrr FUCKERrrr down!!

  • Most Murderous indeed...Love it.

  • if i have no free will... then how can i be morally culpable

    i wondered...

  • My favourite song on this brilliant album. Never gave Nick Cave much credit... until I heard Murder Ballads.

  • @bigbobramone I do it every time..I love this song..

  • I was hoping he'd rape somebody, but nooooo. /Sigh.

  • @SculptedThoughts Stagger Lee mate. :)

  • wonder why they never did it live ... that would be one hell of a concert!!

  • First heard this in a firefight in Helmand. Crazy english para had pa system rigged to a humvee and cranked this up in a firefight. It inspired him.

  • think I"ll go for a pint

  • Read Nick's books. Damn. He's been in some dark places.

  • Mr Cave just saw Breivik comin'

  • The psyche-profiling in this song is awsum..

  • since I heard this song, every time I enter a pub I get this weird twitch in my hands...

  • FUCKIN GENIUS.THANK YOU AGAIN NICK! YOU NEVER DISSAPPOINT!

  • @bigbobramone with the curse of milhaven

  • Definitely going to play this when I go on a murdering spree.

  • I shot a hole in Kathleen Carpenter

    recently divoreced.

  • I jammed the barrel under her chin

    And her face looked raw and vicious

    Her head it landed in the sink

    With all the dirty dishes.

  • i bear no grudge againt you..and my dick felt long and hard

  • "And with an ashtray as big as a fuckin really big brick I split his skull in half!!!"

  • "Her head it landed in the sink with all the dirty dishesss!!!! "

  • 14 mins and I wish it was longer !!!

  • @parchment52 I read this and my first thought was honestly "Its only 14 minutes? :( "

  • this man walks before the reaper. an angel of discord. anyone who can sing about murder for 14 mins and still instill beauty and laughter is a hero in my book. 23. my little boat is empty, it don't row.

  • five thumbs down must be the cunts he was slotting

  • THANK YOU THANK YOU!

  • @bigbobramone Agreed, I've listened to this and "The Kindness of Strangers" at least once everyday since I got the 2 album years ago

  • Classic line around min 5. 'As he screamed you are an evil man and i paused a while to wonder,if i have no free will then how can i be morally culpable i wonder'

  • 'Did you know I live in your street I said and he looked at me like I was crazzzzzyyyyyyy....'

  • This is dark literature...at its greatest heights

  • @bigbobramone i agree, except for maybe tied with the Curse of Millhaven.

  • @Phryxil I fuckin' love the Curse of Millhaven!!!!!!!

  • songs for the psychopath. twisted messed up stuff but its really cool!

  • Welcome to the dark side,the truth about life as it is lol

  • "I bear no grudge against you... and my dick felt long and hard"

    Who else, but Cave? Damn good.

  • I am the man for which no man waits but for which the whole world yearns.....

  • nick is the man, best songwriter ever!!!

  • "an ashtray as big as a fucking really big brick"

    That line always makes me chuckle! Only somebody as genius as Nick Cave could pull this off and still sound geniune rather than rediculous

  • fuckin man thank you been looking for this on here since i figured you tube out. your the best. i said omally i have a thirst

  • Finally someone had uploaded it! One of my favourite of Mr. Cave...

  • wouldn't think this gets much radio play.

  • Death Metal Lite... could be a Six Feet Under song ... since they like taking, and remaking other peoples songs. They could make this a Death Metal song... it would be butchered and mutilated badly, but I'm sure it could be done!!

  • this is Poetry.... this is Art... This is special...

    This is NICK CAVE.

  • Fucken Finally!!!! Thank you! Thank you!

  • AND MY DICK FELT LONG AND HARD!

  • At last! The crowning glory, THE best track from Murder Ballads.

    Such a clever song!

  • "Did you know I lived in your street? I said

    And he looked at me like I was crazy".... hahahah he is genius ... Nick Cave the greatest!

  • If I have no free will, how can I be morally culpable?
