Nick Cave on September Songs

this is a far superior translation from the one most singers usually sing. much darker... muahahaha

where and where the hell did this come from????

I'm surprised Tom never did a Mac the Knife version. I mean, this sort of song is right up his alley.

Maybe that's just the reason he didn't. I think it would be more interesting for Tom to do his version of shake ya ass or something :P. Now that would be a challenge to make it his own!

Well, he did What Keeps Mankind Alive, which is also Brecht...

He did, in a live show. There is an extremely rare bootleg around somewhere. Waits probably has a recording of it, but the internet definitely doesn't. There is a foreign website called Markpalatz, you can find some of his rare stuff on it sometimes.

I absolutely lvoe all of Cave's work, and this is no exception. I must say, it is a bit hard to understand.

But, Cave is rather young here, when did this come out?

Have you ever thought of having an enema?

Why are you a douche bag?

as the ground cave'd from under his shoes, the demands met
were futile. Caving into his internal instinct he proceeded to give the doorman the ticket required for the entrance of the Three Penny Opera and there on stage was the preformer in all his dynamic, brooding, sardonic wit . Nick Cave was belting out his rendition of Mack the Knife as Bobby Darin watched in puzzled approvall.
