RIP Peter Higgs. Thanks for the inspiration ❤

This is Cave's "Desolation Row". Absolute poetic and lyrical masterpiece.

[MikeJBeebe]

Nick Cave's maturity as a musician just amazes me. How he went seamlessly from Murder Ballads to this song is a tribute to his talent.

[danielroyster]

You know a song's good when people aren't even talking about the song. They're just talking about their lives.

[narrator]

Half poetry, half rambling mad man. Just the way I like it!

[stevesitkowski]

there's nothing better than when an artist you have loved for years keeps making you proud. this is amazing

[ChrisQuigley]

The dynamics between the vocals and guitar is PERFECT in this performance. Very evocative

[HermanWaldorf]

to make such a song, and such an album as "Push the Sky Away" after a long and exceptional career is really a rare thing. A true artist of our times, and hats off to the Bad Seeds, in all their incarnations.

[audiorage]

I appreciate that they actually recorded the music played during the filming of this video instead of just pasting the studio track over the top of the visuals. It's like having a studio-quality live version of this song!

[traceyredmond]

I saw him live and touched his chest as he sang ' Can you feel my heartbeat ' Exquisite moment..

[NA-cwpj]

He always looked like a mad preacher to me. Love you Nick, I had your back till the casket close

[jamesboswell]

So Fucking good, Mr Cave and Co are like Red Wine, they just get better with age.

[markjones]

This is such a masterpiece of how to deliver a song that builds mood, intensity, drama - even though musically it's so simple. And yet just brilliant.

[ΜΑΡΙΑΒΕΝΙΖΕΛΟΥ]

MY GOD! THIS IS A PERFECT SONG!!! GREETINGS FROM ATHENS, GREECE.

[fractiousperson]

The percussion on this song is phenomenal.

[belisariusyounger]

Nick Cave is channeling the holy spirit here. And the way Warren Ellis plays guitar is transcendent. Beautiful.

[nathangrandest]

Je n'ai jamais rien ressenti d'aussi fort qu'en écoutant chanter Nick Cave. Plus que la musique, plus que la littérature, plus que la poésie, plus que le cinéma, plus que la peinture, Nick Cave est en lui-même une expérience unique qui dépasse tous les arts. Déroutant, vous rentrer dans son monde sans vouloir en sortir.

[markbradley]

'Seeing nick cave live is as near a religious experience as you will get!'

[carltonbreezy]

Fucking goose bumps from beginning to end on this song. 9 Minutes, it could be 20 and still not long enough.

[tehyamorrison]

To me, every Nick Cave song is filled with emotion. But there is something different about this piece. It feels so raw, you can hear the intensity and the emotion in his voice with every line he sings. Breathtakingly exquisite
