For me "Conversion" is the best song of the album

[gerardfinan]

1st time was good, 2nd was fucking brilliant, 3rd time the neighbours were singing it, pure class

[grotesqburlesk]

There was a little place in a pretty row
Where we mostly did not go
And next to the place in a field of trees
Were stones stacked on stones for ten centuries

One time in the field in the middle of the night
An old god shambled beneath the sodium light
And the whole town gathered at the fence
With looks on their faces worse than grief itsеlf

Now then, a girl across the street with long dark hair
Knelt among thе stones and the mystical flare
And the old god drew her into him like a flame
And I’ve never seen you so beautiful as that again

Touched by the spirit and touched by the flame
Touched by the spirit and touched by the flame
I never ever saw you so beautiful as that again
Touched by the spirit and touched by the flame
I’ve never ever seen you so beautiful as that again
I was touched by the spirit and touched by the flame
I never ever really ever saw you so beautiful again
Not like that again, not that again!
These voices they never ever stopped again
They never stopped again! I was touched by the flame!
I never really ever hurt again! Never hurt again!
Not even by ordinary pain! Not even by ordinary pain!
I never ever really hurt again! Oh, hurt again! Oh, hurt again!
You’re beautiful! You’re beautiful, again! You’re beautiful! You’re beautiful! You’re beautiful! You’re beautiful!
Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! You’re beautiful!
You’re beautiful! You’re beautiful again!
Oh, touched by the flame!

Best song on the new album - a real stand out !!!

[grandchefmaster]

please, MISTER nick cave, don't ever disappear! don't ever stop singing! i've got big problems, looking for meaning in my life for so long, immersed in sadness, feeling nothing but pain, moving through life like on the edge of a cliff. Your songs are the only ones that make me cry, that make me sing, that make me scream and that bring out the anger and despair in me! It does me so much good to feel so much, whether it's sadness, nostalgia or beauty. And with each album it starts all over again. Thank you so much. Thank you so much.

I honestly think this song just saved me from fading away ❤

Now that’s what music is supposed to do

[dextermorgan]

The greatest transcendental musician, who brings the spirit down to earth ...

Abbatoir Blues vibes. The king is back

Touched by the spirit and touched by the flame🗣🗣🗣

[erikliljenwall]

I saw Nick and Warren in 2022. When they did White Elephant and Hand of God, it was the first time I’ve seen a man turn into a genuine Rock and Roll God right before my eye. I was physically shaking. I can’t wait to see him perform this song live.

[alessandrobianchi]

Pelle d'oca, solo pelle d'oca, meravigliosa.

[flopir]

Counting the days to listen to this masterpiece live in Oslo.

[chdd]

My minister of life reminding again how beautiful and meaningful life is.
