    So happy to finally see Nick Cave here. He's not everyone's cup of tea, but if you love him, you love him. I do and I knew you would ( you have impeccable taste ). The music is often quite minimalistic on his tracks, often carried by bass and Nick's awesome, deep, provocative vocals, but the rest of the instrumentation is creative and perfect and ever so tight. I would be so excited for a full week, in the meantime, I'm very excited for this spooky week, thanks guys.❤

    As an Australian, I don't think it's at all controversial to say Nick Cave is one of the best songwriters to ever come from here. His compositions always strike me as brilliantly crafted poetry first, then incorporated into a song. Would absolutely love to see a curated week. Would need to include Shivers (written by his equally brilliant erstwhile collaborator, Roland Howard, 1st hit, still haunting and relevant), Into My Arms, as well as one of the duets he did with Kylie Minogue or P J Harvey, at a minimum.

    Geez Australia has produced some magnetic frontmen; Nick cave is right up there with the best of them. This was a super track to kick off your Halloween Week, I can't wait for the rest of the week.
    I notice this is a BBC video, there is another amazing Nick Cave and the Badseeds performance captured by the BBC, it is the 2013 Glastonbury performance of Stagger Lee. The performance is a 10+ minute lesson in crowd interaction and malice.
    I would love to see a Nick Cave curated week.

    Nick wrote the script & some of the music to a quite excellent 2005 Australian Western film The Proposition.

    Some more songs by Nick Cave you may want to consider:
    • From her to eternity (a song about neighbourhood, from his first album with the Bad Seeds, title song)
    • I had a dream, Joe (some faster track)
    • Loverman (a nice song about a stalker and rapist)
    • Where the wild roses grow (featuring Kylie Minogue, yes, what a couple...; this song even hit the charts worldwide)
    • Hallelujah (not Nick's cover of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, that's fine too, but Nick's own Hallelujah about a writer's block)
    • We came along this road (nice first line, nice piano playing)
    • Fifteen feet of pure white snow (a winter song, or not?)
    • Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!! (about careers)
    • Jubilee Street (adjacent to Penny Lane?)
    • Push the sky away (trance)
    • Stagger Lee (some rough language to say the least)
    • Time Jesum transeuntum et non riverentum (probably a track for Halloween; no worries, only the title is in Latin)
    • Bright horses (Nick wrote this after his teenage son fell off a cliff near Brighton and died)
    • any song from the album “No more shall we part”

    Isn't Nick Cave the guy behind The Proposition, which is one of the top 3 modern Westerns I have seen? Oh and Happy Hallowen week! I did Google Nick Cave and he is the guy I was thinking of. And he's done the music on several movies I love almost as much as the Proposition in the last 20 years. Will be interesting to hear what his music is like.
    I went to a lot of the music from the original Twin Peaks series right away, but there is a different twist to it. I also flashed back to Gord Downie as a weird frontman, but again with a twist. The bell is a really nice touch.
    His movies are also the definition of "less is more" at their best. It's a concept he seems to have mastered.

    love the shabby slink of the rhythm section, that organ almost easy listening, and the intimate story telling of the confidant in the lyrics telling you of the dangers. the bell tolling as if its high noon and the gunman is beckoning you out to pay his fee. obviously theres the devils pact aspect of the tale, the shepard and his flock, but i think the shadowy figure is an embodiment of the age old solution for those in desperate and downtrodden circumstances (the people of the bowery, the slums, the desolate wastelands the inhabit). The secret ingredient being crime itself.

Loved this song before I knew it was Nick Cave, as there have been a few cover versions, and it was also used in a movie that I loved when I was younger. It was written by the guitarist of Boys Next Door when he was 16!

Each time I try to post a comment with a link RUclips disappears it so I will limit myself to recommending the Live in Copenhagen version of Jubilee St and either of the Later or Channel 4 live versions of There She Goes My Beautiful World. These are all balls out brilliant performances. For light relief his duets with PJ Harvey and Kylie Minogue are very fine, but there are a good two dozen worth recommending. I need hardly mention that he is yet another product of the Australian pub rock scene of the 70s thru to the 90s.

    Another Aussie singer song writer who is not to well known beyond our shores and has released many fine albums is Dave Graney. He's gone through a few band name variations such as Dave Graney with the White Buffaloes, Dave Graney and the Coral Snakes, The Dave Graney Show etc. Suggested song titles such as "Rock and Roll is Where i Hide" or "You're just to Hip, Baby", "Night of the Wolverine", "Robert Ford on the Stage" and "Listen to Her Lovers Sing" just to name a few. More an Album artist rather than a singles artist. To quote Molly Meldrum "do yourself a favour" and give him a spin.

Alex you mentioned that that is how you captivate an audience; I was not captivated -- I was like a little child in the backseat of a car that is on a long drive, repeatedly nagging, "are we there yet?" On the special Thamesmen "Spookmeter," I'd give it a 3.5 out of 5.
