24.01.2022 There are two types of Nick Cave fans in the world : For the moustache, or against it :) Which are you? Here's a 2008 interview about Dig Lazarus Dig and Grinderman.
20.01.2022 Nick's top ten love songs, as listed by him in the Red Hand Files. Some surprises there? Here's Nick in an interview in 1995 talking about "I Threw It All Away", in response to the question "What song do you wish you had written?" : "There was always something about that song, that was so simple, and an audacity to this sort of simplicity to that song. But it was so so powerful at the same time. For me, at least. I was always ragingly envious of that song.... I constantly buy the same record over and over again: I’ve bought so many versions of Nashville Skyline I must be keeping Dylan in whatever that is he needs keeping in.

12.01.2022 The Red Hand Files ISSUE #143 / APRIL 2021 Dear Mr Cave,... Do you ever suffer from self-doubt? A girl was falling in love with me, and while she courted me, she shared a part of herself which was you. I had never heard your music before, and it struck me that you were like me - you and I were born within a 100km radius of one another. The young girl who loved me shared with me friendship, forgiveness, and a figure of alien greatness who at one time came from some place around here. I now have two young sons Max and Joey. They enjoy listening to your music, they dance around the living room. Joey is an emotional lightning rod who feels the world more intensely than anyone I have ever met. Little Max cannot speak yet, but he sings, and when he smiles you can see clear through into his soul. One day when they are old enough to really understand, I will tell them that you came from here. I will tell them that they can aspire to be more than a person from a place, and maybe they will not end up like their father. THOMAS, MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA Dear Thomas, You sent this letter some time ago and I keep coming back to it, responding to its wonderfully precise and tender heart. I’ve read it to several people, including film director and friend, Andrew Dominik, who basically cried, as did my normally steely assistant, Rachel. It reads like a Raymond Carver story lean and lovely and sad a world in every line. I have received and read around forty thousand letters on The Red Hand Files and yours is perhaps my favourite. I am very happy that this letter was written by a guy from my hometown of Melbourne that makes me proud. Do I ever feel self-doubt? The answer is yes, very much so. My self-doubt tends to manifest itself in sudden, hot rushes of embarrassment, and usually emerges alongside a loss of playfulness or humour or rather, when I start to take myself, and indeed life, too seriously. It seems to arise as a countering response to my own sense of self-importance. Self-doubt is common to us all, I suspect, and uncomfortable and unpleasant as it is, a certain amount can be the truest humanising force, keeping us humble, vulnerable, open-minded and connected to the world. But, of course, we need to remain vigilant and not allow our self-doubt to become compulsive to imprison us, shut us down and make us incapable of forward movement. At these times, it is worth remembering that the world can be funny as can we and to not take ourselves too seriously. But, Thomas, the main reason I am writing to you is to just say thank you for your letter, it is a superb thing, really, and something I will treasure. When I read it to Susie this morning she said, ‘What a lovely man.’ ‘Yeah, I know,’ I said ‘He’s from Melbourne.’ Love, Nick ASK A QUESTION Copyright 2021 Nick Cave Productions, All rights reserved.

10.01.2022 Studio clips are my favourite kind of music video and I never tire of this one. This is also my favourite Grinderman song. Happy Friday!
09.01.2022 Idiot Prayer review : "This rare 90-minute performance sees Cave perform a collection of his songs in a never-before-seen setting. Of course, a large portion of the performance is made up of the obvious, piano-driven Boatman’s Call cuts....but there are also a number of unexpected inclusions." Which "unexpected inclusions" do you hope to hear??
