I love Nick Cave... his life has been tinged with tragedy. Lyrically I think he is exceptionally poetic. Murder Ballads is an exceptional album and one should you check out! :)
Nick Cave and P.J Harveys song Henry Lee is one of my all time fav songs.... it´s been with me all my life and even if I forget it for a year or two I always come back to it sooner or later.
Nick Cave has so much deep and meaningful songs covering most genres. Should definitely do some of his hits including "Where the wild roses grow", the song with Kylie.
Nick Cave "Weeping Song" is excellent. He comes from a small dusty town in Victoria, Australia called Warracknabeal. It's only got a plaque recognizing their most famous son.
Wow - you've never really listened to Nick Cave? He's got lots of good stuff and indeed a gold mine. He's a dark poet and truly deep and emotional performer, and thus has much more going for him than his voice. Where the Wild Roses Grow with Kylie Minogue is perhaps the most well known by mainstream, but he's got tons of other good stuff, ranging from dark and hard to soft and beautiful. For the soft and beautiful side, listen to e.g. Distant Sky (live in Copenhagen recommended) or Into My Arms. For something stronger, try e.g. Jubelee Street live in Copenhagen or Red Right Hand. For something in between, e.g. The Good Son, The Weeping Song, , Fifteen Feet of Pure White Snow or Girl in Amber, or Papa Won't Leave You Henry (the version from the album Idiot Prayer). For really offensive stuff, give Stagger Lee - again preferrably live (and why not in Copenhagen again). And the list goes on and on... :-)
The studio version of this is on my ‘favorites’ playlist, fun hearing it live. I first heard Nick Cave (and the Bad Seeds) on the Scream soundtrack... “Red Right Hand.” The Kylie Minogue collaboration is “Where the Wild Roses Grow”, I believe? Great suggestion.
Next suggestion, now from him Where the wild roses grow with Kylie Minogue. To combine in one video with the Nightwish songs A Rose for the Dead and While your lips are still Red (Marko Hietala and Floor Jansen singing).
That was really beautiful... but to be honest, I would recommend his duet with Kylie Minogue "Where the wild roses grow"... probably his most beautiful song... in my opinion. Best wishes : Gerry PS : I wrote you a message on patreon, with another request.... this time something completely different than Aurora. ;-)
The comparison with Leonard Cohen is apt. Nick Cave is a dark, lyrical genius, and Murder Ballads is a must, but beware- it's exactly what it says on the can, so if you're squeamish...
Beautiful song. The album version is the best though. Barry Adamson who has worked with Nick before has agreed to sign a vinyl for me! Barry Adamson was the original bassist of Magazine. C.
If you want to listen more to Nick Cave, I think you should listen to the opening act of the 2013 tour, Jubilee Street. It's the best opening of consert I have ever heard. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-urwyBFHGiAU.html
This was good, but...something's missing. I like the album version at least 3x more. The ambience isn't there in this version. This lacks the ethereal sound.
