Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds "Mercy Seat"

the way i was introduced to Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds was through Metallica's cover of Loverman. I started hearing the rest of their songs and they're amazing.

Maybe it's because you are just too young to know anyone who likes good music, find an older crowd. Nick Cave has a huge following in Canada and most other countries.

What the fuck are you on about? Does this sound like "Mack the Knife"?

America is pretty oblivious to him, as well (which I think he should consider a compliment).

We in Canada have a special attachment to incredibly bland, dull acts. Nickelback, The Guess Who, Bryan Adams...the list is fucking endless.

He's slowly starting to move into the mainstream conciousness, though.

17 and I can't enough of him. Murder Ballads and Tender Pray are my favourite Bad Seeds albums, the rest remaining great in my eyes

Kurt Weill didn't write this. It was written by Nick Cave and famously covered by Johnny Cash.

yay!

i dont think its just Canada, im from the UK and me and my mum have never met anyone who has known or even liked Nick Cave.

We do! I am actually 14 an i am
embarrassed about the music I grow up with...

im 17, and caves been my favorite artist since i was 15.
but you do have a point mental, actually i have only met one other person who knew about cave before i introduced them to his music, though that could just be because im from Canada...
