    This song played at a bar where I passed out when I graduated from High School. Still the most strange experience of my life.

    Outstanding. Better than the album version.

    Always memory of awakening in the wee hours of early dawn on a property in the Australian outback , I'd slept in a photography dark room, at a weekend gathering of punks, Goths and this classic song blaring from the outdoor speakers saturating the whole place.

    They haven't performed this live since 1997. Definitely a song i'd really like to see performed by the current lineup.

    • @stephaniebristol3837

      Completely agree, this is my favorite song they've made and every single time I've seen them live they won't do it.

      it's the song that got me into them after seeing Nick Cave in that angel movie.
      But this comment is 3 years old and live shows aren't even a thing at the moment. Sad what the future can bring

    • @johngalantini6910
      @johngalantini6910 3 года назад +4

      Nick Nickson in fairness to Nick, in the recent Solo show (streamed) he was digging out some rarely heard classics and giving them a dusting off - I think he’s just as capable of rediscovering his older work and repurposing it as we hope he will. Recently he did a commentary on the murder ballads record with Blixa and Mick. So they’re clearly all in touch and happy to meet. Who knows... maybe we will see them make new music together again

    OMG The Carny is one of my favorite pieces of music from Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. This version is the best one I've found so far. This man is such a story teller. I put him up there with Leonard Cohen.I don't see the comparison I notice comparing Cave to Tom Waits(not a fan of Waits). I see much more similarity to Cohen. I love Blixa's part in this he is so chill. I believe I see Warren Ellis on accordion and Mick Harvey as well as Conway Savage on Keyboard. This ensemble is an eerie wall of sound and Cave in the middle it's awesome. I've been listening to this man and his many incarnations and changes from about twelve years old on to now.

    • @AlysounRI
      @AlysounRI  5 лет назад +2

      It's my favorite version too, aside from the one in Wings of Desire. The one from Paradiso is too frenzied. Glad you like it.

      One wonders, Jim Morrison, had he had the time of life, would he, perhaps solo perhaps with the other Doors, ever ventured into this kinda territory? There some signs on more than one walls, like their liking for Berthold Brecht, soundscapy stuff they done like Unknown Soldier, Texas Radio, the End and so on.
      After all, this song came only after Nick had had a first run of genius in the Birthday Party. Morrison might ve come up with some brilliance after some pause in the Paris Jazz scene - and he might ve discovered Berlin while in Europe. If only..
      Who fell off the trolley, Jim ?

    I loved Blixa but Whenever I went the bad seeds concerts, I hardly remembered him - Nick Cave was so powerful and couldn't see anyone else but him.

    • @elizabethhann4028
      @elizabethhann4028 7 лет назад +6

      I know what you mean, I suppose - when I went to see Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds in concert, back in June, I only had eyes for him, such was his power - but I can't help but think that, if I'd been lucky enough to have seen the Bad Seeds back in the day when Blixa was with them, I would have made a point of at least stealing a few glances at Blixa. 'Cause I ADORE Blixa; oh truly I do.

    • @rubymouse6904
      @rubymouse6904 4 года назад +2

    The musicians are: Nick Cave, obviously, Mick Harvey on xylophone, Warren Ellis on accordion, Blixa on guitar and vox, Conway Savage on keys, Thomas Wydler on drums, and Martin Casey on bass.

    I just did a video interview for Nick's new album reissues in London with Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard (the artists who have been directing Nick's recent music videos). I talked about this song and Red Right Hand for ages and how it reminded me of 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' by Ray Bradbury - My flesh still crawls when I think about it! The Carny is one of the most inventive pieces of contemporary music out there.

    • @vicodinmethadone
      @vicodinmethadone 2 года назад

      Yes, this song was used in two scenes, one where the character Marion (she is a French trapeze artist in an travelling circus) plays it on her record player, and another where Nick performs it. He also performs from her to eternity in the same scene after it. It’s a really cool film, Wim Wenders is a legend (as is Nick Cave, and the Bad Seeds)
