    I forget which famous writer said something like "if you see something and you want to talk about it afterwards that's good entertainment but if you want to talk about life afterwards that's art." This album has been breaking that art line for me. very powerful.

    In a slumber til you crumble were absorbed into the earth''
    I can't even imagine how painful and personal the process of making this album was, but i'm glad he did it... now we all have an album that is a true masterpiece.

    The first time I heard GIA it was during the premiere of OMTWF the documentary. To call it a Masterpiece is an understatement. I was stuck to my cinema seat and felt my blood pressure rising. Choking and trying to hold back but everything failed in that moment. The tears fell and kept falling. RIP dear Arthur. NC has never been more realistic with his fans and this was the moment he truly showed his vulnerability as a parent and as a human. Immortal classic. One of the reasons why the album ST was #1. Here's wishing that GHOSTEEN makes #1 as well. Bravo NCATBS Bravo!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏 💟💗💙💚💝💜💛💫

    I have a really tough relationship with this album. I still have my friend's message on FB wall saying "Nick Cave releasing this album in Oct will be my best birthday present" and then he died few days later, 2 months before his BD. 2016 was fucking hell. My dad died, my friend died. This album is all about death. I couldn't make peace with death for quite some time since 2016. Now I do, but this album is still the purest expression of the worst kind of pain to me.

    The unfogettable, harrowing, visceral, melancholic and mind blowing centerpiece of ST is a masterpiece work of art that will live on for infinity. As I had predicted, ST got the much deserved and coveted #1 spot. This track and its contemporaries are the reason why. From Australia & Canada to UAE & USA, NCATBS has touched the very core of fans universally. The music speaks from the deepest consciousness of the heart, hence has resonated the world over. Thank you Mr Cave & friends! Love & Light!

    Some go and some stay behind
    Some never move at all
    Girl in amber trapped forever, spinning down the hall
    Let no part of her go unremembered, clothes across the floor
    Girl in amber lumber slumber shuts the bathroom door
    The phone, the phone, the phone it rings, it rings, it rings no more
    The song, the song, the song it spins since nineteen eighty-four
    The phone, the phone, the phone, it rings, the phone, it rings no more
    The song, the song it's been spinning now since nineteen
    And if you want to bleed, just bleed
    And if you want to bleed, just bleed
    And if you want to bleed, don't breathe
    A word
    Just step away and let the world spin
    And now in turn, you turn
    You kneel, lace up his shoes, your little blue-eyed boy
    Take him by his hand, go move and spin him down the hall
    I get lucky, I get lucky 'cause I tried again
    I knew the world it would stop spinning now since you've been gone
    I used to think that when you died you kind of wandered the world
    In a slumber till you crumbled, were absorbed into the earth
    Well, I don't think that any more
    The phone it rings no more
    The song, the song it spins, it spins now since nineteen eighty-four
    The song, the song, the song it spins, it's been a spinning now
    And if you'll hold me I will tell you that you know that
    And if you want to leave, don't breathe
    And if you want to leave, don't breathe
    And if you want to leave, don't breathe a word
    And let the world turn
    The song, the song it spins, the song, it spins, it spins no more
    The phone, it rings, it rings
    And you won't stay
    Don't touch me
    Don't touch me
    Don't touch me

      yet ascended to my Father, but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I
      ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

    Tried really hard to appreciate this song (and others on the album) when listening to it in the car on the way home from work. Have to admit I skipped it most of the time and went back to something more familiar on the 'The Boatman's Call'... When the context of life changed with covid I suddenly got it, I got the emotional intensity of the song and it made me realise Nick Cave is ever bigger a genius than I'd thought. Didn't know you could dig so deep and explore/expose your pain so perfectly.

    I talk a lot about what a genius album this one is and what an incredible talented artist Nick Cave is but i wanna mention that this movie is a masterpiece on its own too. When I was watching 3D movie in the theater I kinda tripped away starting 2:30 and never even glimpsed at anything else but screen. I normally hate 3D and avoid it at all costs thinking that they use 3D because they can't make a point without it. But this movie was the best 3D I ever experienced. And black and white fucking rocks!

    I suppose that with the phrase "Girl In Amber" describes his wife.I find really poetic,and very delicate the use of the specific words to describe her grief.I don't know if she is an artist like he is,but probably she is not thus she cannot be relieved from that feeling with the same way as he does e.g recordings,concerts etc.That's why he "dedicated" her that song.

    What a gift this perfect video is I love finding and pasting these great videos to my facebook they help me express myself. I can't thank people like Nick Cave and co. more for what they give with these songs and videos; they really are everything to me I live and breathe this stuff. Just grabbed the record on Itunes.

      Yeah that got me too! I think of 20000 Days on earth where he's sitting with Arthur and Earl in a theatre like setting with his arms around both of his sons and I just want to cry.
      Nick , Susie and Earl my heart breaks for you all.🖤
