    Nick Cave is so artistic in his movement and syntax in the delivery of this song. This truly is immortal stuff.

    Hello, comment from a year ago! The woman you’re referring to, I think, is Marie Hoy.

    God it never ceases to amaze me just how young Nick and the rest are here. Nick’s gestures are very amusing.

    It was first put to vinyl by the Boys Next Door. Though I have to give credit to Rowland for performing it with his band the Young Charlatans before joining BND. (The Young Charlatans version is out there! Worth a listen to!)

    Nah man, i see him all the time, he never plays it.

    rowland howard, the band’s guitarist wrote the song when he was 15 years old. he was in a band called ‘the young charlatans’ at the time.

    rowland has gone back to performing it in his solo shows i believe. he watched me cover it one night with my band and seemed happy enough. at the time (95) he was sick to fucking death of the song LOL so he was happy someone else would sing it. this was just after the screaming jets covered it.

    This reminds me a lot of the Cure. Rowland wrote this song, isn’t that funny? i saw an early live clip where Rowland sings and Nick plays guitar!

    This fully reminds me of Dogs In Space.

    It is an original by Boys Next Door song released in 1979 of the album ‘Door Door’

    is this an original boys next door song or a cover? i asked some people once and they said it was a screaming jets song, which can’t be right cause i think they did it in the nineties.
