Listened to this on my 20th birthday in the psychiatric ward, which also beautifully happened to be on a Sunday morning.
I love you, Mr. Nick Cave. Thank you so much.
Skeleton Tree and Ghosteen are the perfect playlist to turn off the lights and let the songs take over your life for a while.
What a beautiful album! Heartbreaking.
Anyone who is here because losing someone broke you, made you sick, youve never recovered...just know..there are many of us. Love everyone you meet with genuine love!
...this ⬆️⬆️
Yeah,it's about the loss of his son, who died as a result of drug use. 😢
@@waxkopp Not drugs exactly, he fell off a cliff after taking LSD. Makes it even more tragic imo.
@@waxkopp actually the Skeleton tree album was written before the death of his son Arthur- see Nick Cave book Faith, hope and Carnage where he discusses this freely.
One of the most talented artists of our generation.
God bless you Nick, nobody should ever go through what you have endured
No matter who you are, or who brought you to this video, it's great that you're here listening.
The world is full of grievers...thats why we're here with this song
The impression I get of this song (within the context of the whole album) is that it is in some ways about not so much when grief begins to truly ebb, but the point at which one realizes that grief isn't forever despite loss being forever and the space left empty is forever. I've lost a lot of people close to me in my life, including losing my mother at a young age, and this album is probably the most harrowing of any I have ever heard. I've spent the last few months listening to it quite a lot because it is flat out amazing but also because I find it really helps put me into the head space I need to be in to make art.
❤❤❤
I want this at my funeral. No joke.
I will never forget this song. Thanks Nick.
I'm always emotionally in bits by the end of this song. It finds a place deep within me that's never exposed to the world, it takes it in its hands and tells it: "It's alright now."
Thank you, Nick and the Bad seeds.
Me too
Me also!
The album is truly amazing. Thank you Nick Cave . So sorry for your loss
Every single sound on this album feels to have a strong emotion. It's miraculous that humans can communicate such strong emotions through sound alone. When you add the words, it just quite unbelievable that it's even possible.
This is a truly beautiful album.
Listen to this album all the way through, if you dare. It will change you. I don't say things like this on a whim. Absolutely transcendent music.
Hits me right in the feels. It's nice to feel sad sometimes.
"It's nice to feel sad sometimes". Truth of the day.
Not ashamed to admit that this song makes me tear up every time I hear it. Heartbreaking and gorgeous.
Incredible film. A superb album. Such a beautiful way to say goodbye. So sorry for your loss, and so grateful that you could channel so much pain into a truly remarkable album. I love every song on the album... that's very rare for me. Thank you.
cameraception!
Ian Bentley No, I was just hoping that YOU would read it and call me a twat. Mission accomplished!
and you have nothing beter to do?
Ian Bentley What a twat comment, really...
*Listen to 'Peacock Affect - I Wrote This In The Dark'*
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
Perfect closer to one of the most emotional albums ever made...
After listening to the whole album I can say that this is one of the most emotional albums I have heard in a long time. Not since Black Star by David Bowie has an album made me feel such raw emotions especially with the track Magneto which is incredibly emotional due to the lyrics being so deep to the passing of Nick Cave's son. I would 100% recommend anyone who loves to listen to deep emotional stuff to check this masterpiece out.
Nick is fantastic. The true emotional music is something very, very great.
Diego Ojeda a
The most emotional musicians in popular music are Peter Hammill and Nick Cave.
If you like this album, then I would recommend listening to his previous one, named "Push the Sky away"
To Fritzi, Push the Sky Away is great. I saw the band on tour for that album in 2014 in Philadelphia. What a great album. To Diego Ojeda, I've never heard of Peter Hammill. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll go look him up right now. I have to throw Tom Waits' name into the mix of deep, emotional songwriters. And Springsteen. If you disagree about that last one, check out the Losin' Kind, Highway Patrolmen, The Klansman (a great rocker tune, with some deep lyrics), or Stray Bullet. To everyone, I'm going to see Nick Cave & TBS tonight in Brooklyn. Can't wait. That he can write The Kindness of Strangers, The Curse of Millhaven, Into My Arms, and Girl in Amber are all testaments to his songwriting ability. I can only imagine what he and Susie went through when Arthur fell off the cliff, over three years ago now. It's no secret that Nick Cave is a friend of Bill, and as a fellow friend I can't possibly imagine what it must have been like to lose your son, knowing he was high.
I want to cry with these
What a beautiful song ... I'm here because Jo Wiley played this on her BBC 2 radio show last night, I stopped dead in my tracks as my ears picked up the first few words and the song carried me away to another place ...
NomadBiker exactly the same happened to me.
I don't want to lose my parents
This autumn of 2016, will be full of tree colours, these melodies , these lyrics...
I love those dark and poetic lyrics in many of his songs. Nick Cave's music means so much to me
For my friend who I will never see again. I wish I could go back in time and save you. I love you x
Il suo animo triste espresso in un ennesimo capolavoro.. Condoglianze per la tua perdita Nick..incredibile la potenza della musica, di questi accordi che si intersecano perfettamente con questo testo pieno di tristezza, dolore che traspare dalla tua voce come nella bellissima "I need you". Grazie per questo capolavoro.
If MAGNETO was mesmerizing, what should i say about this gem of emotion ?
It's so intense, so sad, so painfully gorgeous... Majestic and poignant.
We grieve with you, Nick.
This song as always reminded me of the breaking of grief. When it’s not alright now, but one knows, finally, that it eventually will be.
Listen 1000 times, than again 1000 times. Timeless ...
La tua voce è come casa. Fa bene al cuore, un balsamo per l'anima. Unico Nick.
I'm nineteen years old and I appreciate it nick caves music , this is such raw emotional and beautiful music true art 💙!!
Nick Cave brought me here
NathFilm
Yeah no shit
Marvellous songs, full of tears and also some light. Sorry for the pain but: "Death is not the end" said Nick Cave once
"Death is not the end" was a Dylan song, and It sounded quite ironic in the Nick Cave version... but maybe I'm wrong...
yeah it was meant to be ironic in the nick cave song
little miss scare-all yet it is more ironic coming from Dylan than Cave...
TheTreeOctopus I didn't hear dylan's version, but will give it a listen
He also sang "all beauty must die", right?
Fly high Arthur boy while I listen your father's lament. A big huge to you Nick from Rome (Italy)
I Called Out, I Called Out
Right Across The Sea
But The Echo Comes Back Empty
And Nothing Is For Free..
paid for in tears.
Pefect comment. :-)
“Nothing is for free” always tears me up: to love another is to receive the greatest gift, but it is not free-grief is its price
Can't stop listening to this album. You can feel the pain in every song. This is a real masterpiece, thanks mr. Cave for your beautiful music.
Pain brought me here.
Hands down best someone-you-loved-died-and-you-gotta-move-on song ever. Humbling.
MAGNIFICO album.....GRANDE Nick!!!
This song is amazing. It reminds me Brompton oratory which is probably my favorite Nick Cave's song. I love when after years a musician returns using same structure and melody of an old work. He is saying us: there is a sense relation
Antoni
One of the most beautiful lyrical songs of all all time.
This song is so full of emotions. I'm really thankfull for every second he exists and creates (or existed and created). Thank you, man. I understand you. I feel you. And I love you. You did a great job, now do what you have to do. Take care... you're gonna be always part of my life.
Sunday morning, skeleton tree
Oh, nothing is for free
In the window, a candle
Well, maybe you can see
Fallen leaves thrown across the sky
A jittery TV
Glowing white like fire
Nothing is for free
I called out, I called out
Right across the sea
But the echo comes back in, dear
And nothing is for free
Sunday morning, skeleton tree
Pressed against the sky
The jittery TV
Glowing white like fire
And I called out, I called out
Right across the sea
I called out, I called out
That nothing is for free
And it's alright now
And it's alright now
And it's alright now
He didn't call out THAT nothing is for free; he called out, BUT nothing is for free, hence he got no answer.
Can anyone get this right, apart from me and Nick? Your crucial error which is repeated on every transcription changes the meaning completely, and misses the point totally.
John Arundell Calm down its a typo. Also thousands upon thousand of fans got that right leave your pretentiousness and gatekeeping at the door and let people enjoy this beautiful song ffs. No negativity here.
@@bradniemeyer1442 It's not a typo it's a complete fuck up .. same with ruining "the echo comes back empty", or is that another typo do you reckon? Keep your condescending uppity bullshit to yourself. No negativity for fuck's sake?! OK yep sure, do as I say not as I do.
thank you nick so much for sharing your pain and heart with us
When I get money I'm buying this because it's beautiful
oh,i'm too.
E
Did you buy it yet?
My wife passing away 14 weeks ago brought me here !
I hope your sorrow is more bearable now.
i feel for you ...knowing the same but not so recently
I am so sorry for your loss.
Forever a light you are dear Nick! Your music is therapy. Greetings from a life long listener.
Just beautiful
A genius ...
[LYRICS]
Sunday morning, skeleton tree
Oh, nothing is for free
In the window, a candle
Well, maybe you can see
Fallen leaves thrown across the sky
A jittery TV
Glowing white like fire
Nothing is for free
[Chorus 1]
I called out, I called out
Right across the sea
But the echo comes back empty
And nothing is for free
[Verse 2]
Sunday morning, skeleton tree
Pressed against the sky
The jittery TV
Glowing white like fire
[Chorus 2]
And I called out, I called out
Right across the sea
I called out, I called out
That nothing is for free
[Outro]
And it's alright now
And it's alright now
And it's alright now...
I called out, I called out
BUT nothing is for free
Kind of the whole point of the song, finding out the hard way that nothing comes free of any price, in this case the price of love is loss .. Why would he be calling out THAT nothing is for free? That makes no sense.
@@truefunksoul8638 Iteration on an already introduced phrase? Nick Cave does that a lot. But here, you're right, I hear no "that".
I called out, I called out
Right across the sea..
But the echo comes back empty
And nothing is for free.. ❤️
Sombre and uplifting in the same breath. Many thanks for this magnificent song. M X
I'm in love with this song. Hvala, Nick!
Z veseljem, Saša ! ;)
Pure poetry
Thank you.. just thank you, mr Cave. I will continue to listen this album masterpiece for long time.
Que grande Nick!!! este disco es una obra maestra. Siento mucho la pérdida, mucho ánimo maestro.
STOP MAKING ME FEEL THINGS, NICK
"Right across the sea
I called out, I called out
That nothing is for free
And it's alright now
And it's alright now
And it's alright now"
I called out, I called out
But nothing is for free
Lmao… what.???
Spettacolare come sempre ogni canzone e ogni nota non hanno bisogno di parole ! Thanks mr Cave
So beautiful. Fragile....
La sua voce risuona nell'anima...
Davvero !
Pure beauty, as usual. Keep going on!
Sitting in candlelight listening to this,,.,.Absolutely Brilliant and Beautiful!!!
Magnificent song. One of the most touching on this beautiful album, and my personal fav'... A diamond of emotion.
This is what Butters from South Park would call "a beautiful sadness." This album and its companion documentary, One More Time With Feeling, have made me weepy for the past day.
Do you remember when Kylie says: "On stage you look like a tree to me " in the 20000 days on Earth documentary
Maybe the idea of the title Skeleton Tree came from this
You know, a tree made of bones, that would be a human being with his arms wide open to the sky
A skeleton tree is just a tree with no leaves in Autumn or Winter. Isn't it obvious? Great writing is often simple, but people read far too much into the basic word image. It seems like the term should have been around forever if it was so straightforward, but again that is the gift of a great writer. Nick apparently came up with the term "kill hand" when he wrote The Mercy Seat, just another random example, it seems like he got it from The Old Testament, but he just made it up.
@@johnarundell7951 I thought a skeleton tree was a cross. That’s why it’s on Sunday morning
I'm a little bothered that so many people here came here from Coldplay but I'm also very happy that they've discovered Nick Cave and the bad seeds.
Dizzy Rogue I came here because I saw a post somewhere and now I'm here
I’m curious, did Coldplay cover this? Otherwise, how are people discovering this from Coldplay?
@@thischarmingman7587 I’m not the one bothered by Coldplay fans discovering Nick Cave & Co😀
I’ve seen Coldplay live twice; I think that their first 4 albums are basically perfect, along with their newest one; and, that the albums in between are roughly half good, and a quarter so-so, and a quarter garbage, imo.
I’d say that that makes me a Coldplay fan.
@@GuadalupePicasso A rush of blood to the head and Viva la Vida and death and all his friends are exceptional albums, the rest however.....you get the point i assume
@@vettehottie I view Coldplay similarly to U2: I think that U2’s albums from Boy to Pop (especially Achtung Baby❤) are largely perfect, but that from 2000 and on, they became too obsessed with having hits on the charts. Their albums have a smattering of decent songs on them, but as full albums, they’re kinda lacking (though I did think that Songs Of Innocence was far better than the hate that it got for its release methodology suggested).
Again, Parachutes through Viva La Vida from Coldplay for me are basically perfect albums.
beautiful song. touching.
I really like full album!
Claudestar1 q
love the song, love the movie. xxxxxxx
thank you Nick Cave....for this wonderful part musik
Ghosteen is even better. But my favorite Cave album is Let Love In.
meravigliosa!
The quintessense and climax of an artist describing his tragedy in verse and in real time. Nick Cave goes on an artistic march undergoing the worst ... Beyond the simple critic of a musical album that follows anothers...
Bellissimo brano...brividi nel cuore. ..bravo Nick

Ahhhh, what a beauty...thank you!!!
WHAT ABOUT MILLIONS of SILENT LOSSES & AGONIES ??
WELCOME TO my CLUB, Nick.
rhanks 4 nice deep album
Spinal cord brought me here from instagram, I'm so grateful and going to now pick up the album.
loves from Georgia
Nick Cave makes loneliness so exquisite.
Distant Sky and this are like a suitably darker version of the final two songs on Underworld's Barbara Barbara We Face A Shining Future. Some amazing music has come out this year, too bad this was so dearly bought.
Beautiful, just beautiful.
Thank you so much!
need to buy this.
Skeleton tree omg awesome man!!
Witamy w Warszawie :) Tylko Ty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gorgeous
Like a cross between Roger Waters and Leonard Cohen, if you took that both ways.
Hahaha, Roger Waters, yeah right
How about Ian Curtis + Leonard Cohen?
EricLeafericson Great.
it remind me Neil Young's "It's a dream" so much. They both have that aftermath feeling
this men is a geniouse
I called out, I called out
Right across the sea
But the echo comes back empty
And nothing is for free..
hermoso gracias y mil gracias simplemente música del alma
Beautiful
A friend and lover that forgotted me brought me here
Amazing song $
Actually in my country (France), we're heading, I'm afraid, towards a Civil War, all ingredients are there, but at the moment in my car I'm listenning that piece so called Skeleton Tree, and I enjoyed it just before the Chaos.....
so beautiful
