Invisible Boy he is an amazing artist,we’ve never seen this before,from his screenplays to composing film soundtracks to still making relevant records,its never been done before
Hannah Montana does the African Savannah As the simulated rainy season begins She curses the queue at the Zulus And moves on to Amazonia And cries with the dolphins Oh o o yea i see.. of course, Nick cave has never been weirder. i like it
It is not weird, he describes the phonyness of people like Hannah Montana who is not at all interested in blacks, indians or dolphins but uses them to promote her self like many other sjw's do

The first few times I listened to this song, it took me a while to work out the connections between some of the verses, but he makes some really interesting references to a lot of historical things and manages to make it sound as tortured and bluesy as possible. This song blows me away with its scope and beauty.
That made me check the lyrics :) (I'm not english speaking and I wanted to make sure if he sings exactly what I've heard) I've already forgotten about Miley Cyrus, but she was my favourite singer a few years ago. Yeah, I've lost some time of my life then, definitely... But anyway, I've never thought that Nick Cave can remind me of Miley Cyrus, really.

J"écoute du Nick CAVE depuis moins de dix ans...Ma première écoute elle date d'avant 1990 mais je n'avais pas encore l'oreille ouverte, pas dans une bonne disposition, pas l'album qu'il aurait fallu ??? Depuis donc dix ans, je ne me lasse pas d'écouter cette voix. L'important étant que je ne sois pas passer totalement à côté...
One (only one :-) ) of the beautiful aspects of Nick Cave's music is the fact (see the documentary) that truly every sound you here, is made on purpose. It is created, because it was thought best for the song. Still, listening to Cave's music, you never having anything coming close to the feeling that the music is created: it comes from the heart, and reaches the heart (if you like it). Wow
SORT ??!!!! This is a leftover Doors song had Morrison recorded another album with the Doors all consumed by opiates and benzos and all the ´ don´t remember anything at all` s ...
@@gilsaraiva2830 i think you're giving morrison a little too much credit. There's a reason the song has "blues" in the title. A lot of what you're describing is Cave reusing (brilliantly, but still) old blues tropes that way way way predate the Doors. And given the song's subject matter, that's probably why he chose them.
This is not a song. This is an experience. It's like a great book, with a skillfully written suspense building up to the last pages, and then resolving perfectly, leaving you in awe.
EMI purchased Mute in 2002, and since then everything Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds have released has been a tone of vulgar, middle-of-the-road, pretentious, bohemian, trendy, millennial shite ! WHAT A COINCIDENCE ! Poor Nick, having to keep up with EMI's demands !
Uhm...except that No More Shall We Part and The Boatman's Call, the two softest, soppiest and most accessible albums he ever produced (all crooning love ballads and maudlin songs of romantic loss), were before 2002; while Abattoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus, one of his most eclectic and experimental albums which included the absolutely mental 'Hiding All Away' and 'Fable of the Brown Ape', was 2004. Lazarus followed in 2008 with an astonishing range of moods and styles and some deeply bizarre and provocative lyrical content, particularly the dark psychological perversity of 'Today's Lesson'. I think you're mistaking changes in artistic temperament for label pressure.
@@boiledelephant Nah ! The Good Son, Boatman's Call + No More... were 3 evocative, tender and beautiful masterpieces. Accessible? Too bloody right ! THAT is the sorta unmanufactured music people wanna hear ! Any objection to romantic ballads is about as sad as thrash metal's resentment of anything that isn't mindless adolescent aggro noise ! As for experimental, define it; more often that not just a sad bohemian pursuit of creating 'radical' stuff that others ain't done yet, not realizing people ain't done it before simply cos no-one was stupid enough to !
@@serenechaosuk4682 Sorry for the slow response, I have notifications disabled. You misunderstand me: I'm not saying that accessibility is a problem. I love No More in particular, probably my favourite album. But if you're supposing an artist's sell-out status, accessibility and conventionally is one of the litmus tests. Confusingly you seem to agree in your first post: "middle-of-the-road", "trendy". But now you're saying that being accessible is a virtue and a mark of true artistry. So which is it? Does being mainstream and popular make one genuine and unfettered, or does it make one a sell-out? You seem to be pushing both ways on that.
@@boiledelephant You're confusing accessible with manufactured. ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING is accessible; yer spouse, yer family, sunshine, water, good food, nice beaches, all the greatest things in human life ! Manufactured is another story altogether; diluting and even violating purity in order to market it to the trendy masses. In the case of Cave's music, I love both his 80's raw, dark & bleak era, AND his subsequent more aesthetically tender, culturally refined, poignant and generally more serious music from 'The Good Son' right up to 'No More...' Sure his 80's music is more esoteric - noisy, a tad aggressive, and somewhat nihilistic, and his 90's music is more obviously appealing, subsequently bringing him to a wider audience. But both eras involve bullshit-free music that is good + wholesome. Post-'No More...' - FORGET IT ! I've tried to like his music from the past 20 years, hey, I even used to like the odd tracks from the double album and 'Push The Shit Away'. But over the years I've disconnected the music from the artist - as one should - and I just don't see any connection anymore between the 20th + 21st century stuff. I mean, this stuff post 2002 is just all vulgar, MOTR and feeble crap that appears to be aimed at the trendy millennial crowd. Incidentally, haven't you seen live videos of his 21stC gigs? People who look like they should be at a fucking Britpop concert, rhythmically pointing their fingers in the air, shouting out the lyrics, like it's a fucking nightclub; CASE CLOSED ! Mate, I saw Nick 7 years ago in concert, and he completely fucked up 'Stranger Than Kindness', my favourite 80's Cave song ! While the original version was dark, atmospheric, eerie, abyssal and generally climatic, this new version was just cheap, shallow, vulgar MOTR lounge crap; I may as well have been watching the Hastings Jazz + Blues fest ! To summarize, there's music for intelligent, cultured and wholesome people, and then there's music for a bunch of cheap, trendy, impressionable dickheads !
Stefan Epler - Snow - Actually it said quite a lot. It takes wonders and potential of the higgs boson in Geneva and compares it to the obliviousness of individuals of modern life. Kind of like listening to a song and pretending the lyrics make "absolutely" no sense with out giving it any actual critical thought.
The first verse is about Robert Johnson, a guitarist who supposedly sold his soul to the devil. The second is about Martin Luther King Jr's assassination. The bit about his death makes references to a few historical events such as the caliphate hat and later on, the missionaries giving smallpox to natives etc. I've heard the Hannah Montana bit is just bc his kids were obsessed with her and he had no idea who she was
It definitely makes sense. I think the song is about the way all of history rushes past us with the inexorable force of gravity. Hence all the references to history in the lyrics, going all the way back to natural history and evolution (the pygmy eat the monkey, a reference to AIDS; but also: the monkey has a gift that he is sending back to you- meaning that our present situation is a gift of our roots in natural history, our monkey past, so to speak). When we discovered the Higgs Boson, we found proof that there really is one force holding everything together, one inescapable force pushing everything into the same direction: gravity, pushing time forward without stopping. Nick Cave is driving down to Geneva, where the CERN supercollider is, where the Geneva convention was signed, and where - so people thought at the time this song came out - the world might end if something went wrong during an experiment and a black hole was accidentally opened.
Yeah i can hear what you are saying. But sometimes tedious droning rubbish is art too! Depending on the mood i'm in effects what I think about a piece of music.
This is such a brilliantly heavy and depressing piece of art.
for Nick, it's almost upbeat
Honestly, for me, this is more relaxing than depressing.
i agree with you, at all! hypnotic as most of cave's productions
@@TheNemka2 agree
Nick Cave is an awesome musician and that is one of his greatest songs
Robert Johnson and the devil, man, don't know who's gonna rip off who
Best song by Nick Cave.
From the Birthday Party to this ...my god this man is monster of talent.
Kirk Landau I think he means it that encompasses all of it, starting from the Birthday Party and ending in this
Invisible Boy he is an amazing artist,we’ve never seen this before,from his screenplays to composing film soundtracks to still making relevant records,its never been done before
Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh love this track
Quélle force dans la voix !!!
Hannah Montana does the African Savannah
As the simulated rainy season begins
She curses the queue at the Zulus
And moves on to Amazonia
And cries with the dolphins
Oh o o yea i see.. of course, Nick cave has never been weirder. i like it
It is not weird, he describes the phonyness of people like Hannah Montana who is not at all interested in blacks, indians or dolphins but uses them to promote her self like many other sjw's do
continued like the missionarys of old times saving the savages
I always interpreted as her doing the savannah, because she felt spiritually empty, because of that she cries with the dolphins.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!
such a good song, but the live version hits so much harder
Teach Only Love
Brave New World brought me here.

Epic
5:04 Hannah Montana.. Shit
Theoretically speaking, the Higgs Boson explains why we have mass, whereas Nick cave explains why we have soul...
Brilliant, well said 👏
There was something strangely hypnotic about this when it was performed in 20,000 Day on Earth, brilliant song.
somanytakennames agree!
somanytakennames I watched that film last week....I watched that scene about 4 times. Beautiful.
+somanytakennames
i agree... brilliant
+somanytakennames I've seen Nick twice since releasing this album, the song is pure magic live.
I havent seen any artist connect with its audience as Nick does.
Who is here in 2024? This man is a genius. Don’t know why I didn’t appreciate his music when I was younger.
cheers fam since 1999 :) music is timeless

+Cherabreena yep you are right, Toluca Lake ...and it's not even a lake, i'm disappointed . I guess she lives there
Cherabreena pretty sure it's about killing her..
Been listening this for an hour. This song is inescapable.
Muhteşem bir ses var adamda ya...
this guy's come a long way.
One word: subjective
Warracknabeal to Los Angeles?
Loved hearing this in Quantum Break!
ah, memories
such a story teller of dark stories....
so true.
Quantum Break brought me here :D what a END nice Game and Sound (y)
When I first heard this track, I dismissed it as a cover of 'on the beach.' Now it's one of his most harrowing pieces.
Absolutely sounds super similar.
nick Cave litening his music sounds good, but listening live...that is something that ewerybody should do.....ewen one in life time. : )
I'll come back for you...

Listening this song while driving my car down to Geneva

"Hannah Montana, african savannah"
+Michael Christopher what does that even mean XD
+Colleen Wilson fake role models from tv shows
Just watched Nick's documentary here at the Rio film festival, loved it! Just beautiful.
best album since "Murder Ballads"
wonderful melancholic

Kinda funny that you can't share this on Facebook because of the nude on the cover
That's the rules. ..but, seemingly, you can share links to hard core porn...now..isn't that nice.
Yes, that’s pathetic.
Nick Cave brings me here. What a genius.

Tremendous tune ❤
Nick Cave ist toll. Immer schon. :)

the voice is amazinggg!!

🖤
i do love this idea and the light and shade across that constant progression, inspired on how you can jam out a song across 3 chords
Oh my God, this is awesome stuff
I want to forget what all indetail I remember no one noticed how much I notice there is not a drug I know that can make me forget
Who's ready for July 5th.
Lol I got an advert with We Real Cool song form the same album. :D
Time out of mind, I heard a fragment.
pjur agrešn on jor anouing ov evriting.

Incredible performance!
I will come back for you.

This is a good version, but the music video version is so much better.
Good morning Nick!!!
more like this one

..and the blues
great
