Kylie's vocal is so beautiful and fragile. How a song about a man smashing a woman's head in with a rock can be beautiful and artistic is some achivement.
The entire Murder Ballads album is wonderful. Kylie's clear, delicate voice and Nick's menacing baritone complement each other so well. She's also on the ensemble track Death Is Not the End
This song it's about Elisa Day a irish urban legend , Killed for her beauty and never found the body . Nick Cave with Kylie did a beutiful piece of song with tragic true story ..Amazing interpretation ..and...Kylie she is Beautiful.
Kylie was a soap opera star here in Australia on “Neighbours” This show was a massive hit in the UK and the production team of Stock, Aitken, and Waterman took over her career SAW had achieved success with "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" by Dead or Alive and then were known for their production line of hits for Rick Astley, Mel & Kim, and then Kylie Minogue. Kylie ended up in a relationship with Michael Hutchence of INXS (he made “Suicide Blonde” about her) and his influence made her choose more mature themes.
@@hanierfamily It's funny how careers go as she starred with Jason Donovan in "Neighbours", and like her he also had the SAW treatment -though he's now faded from the light whilst her career's gone on He had done "Nothing Can Divide Us" which even Astley had rejected! A duet with Minogue, "Especially for You" did help him a little... but alas. Also capitalising in on her fame was her sister Danni known previousl for appearances on the television show Young Talent Time (1982-1988) (this was a show featuring a cast of young singers) and for her role as Emma Jackson on the soap opera "Home and Away" which was kind of a rival for "Neigbours" (on a different network). Danni married Aussie royalty in the form of Julian McMahon (son of a former Prime Minister) until she decided to appear in Playboy (Australia) and that killed off her marriage You'll know Julian McMahon from roles in "The Fantastic Four" and the tv series "Charmed"
How can you not like Leonard Cohen's songs? There are so many, so different ones. Give it a try: Suzanne, Famous blue raincoat, Night comes on, The partisan, A street, Nevermind, Sisters of mercy, Tower of Song (live, London), Avalanche, Dance me to the end of love, Ballad of the absent mare, Happens to the heart, If it be your will ...
Honestly, we don't know a lot of Leonard's work. Thanks for the suggestions. We will list the ones we don't already know. He would make a great Canadian Content post.
What a nice surprise.Nick Cave 's output beats every artist. Not having some Cave in your collection is doing yourself short.I could name dozens of excellent Cave songs. But my fave is Slowly Goes The Night of The Tender Prey album.
Nothing like a good murder ballad to start the day! They do this live, with i think , Mick Harvey doing Kylie's part, its bizarre! I like how each of the protagonists see things entirely differently......im sure we'll manage to make you Nick Cave fans yet!
Yeah, you definitively need to have an appreciation for the morbid things in life to enjoy Nick Cave. 😂 Personally that's what I love about him and Cohen, but it's not for everyone. The ensemble track Death Is Not The End is a bit more tongue-in-cheek and is more melodious like this song. Worth a listen!
Nick Cave, to your undoubted relief, has moved away from Murder Ballad type songs over the last decade or two. Many songs have religious references but combined with urban realities. The man is probably the best living lyricist - i would recommend We Called Upon the Author to Explain, or Jubilee Street. Genius. Just a shame he plays arenas now.
@@colrhodes377 I don't know. He was raised Anglican, so if there is any Irish in him, it'd be pretty thin.. Gillian and I are of Irish and Scottish heritage.
I won't tell Tori about what your first impression of ONE of her husband's Nick Cave was. the other one is Robert Smith I'm not sure where that leaves me she reacons she's married to both 🤔🥴🤨😵💫

Very true. Her vocal expression is haunting, beautiful, and fragile.

Beautifully haunting and a masterpiece....a great video and song that tells a story of obsessive love....these two are icons
Even you said you don't like Kylie from 90s, she has a very nice songs, like "Confide in me".

A good reaction to this track guys.
Please react to Kylie's 'Confide In Me'.
Check out the songs of Nick Cave's album "No more shall we part". You might like it.

That explains why her early stuff sounded so much like the late 80's pop coming out of England.

We did a video for that song.

Nick Cave features in the German movie "Wings of Desire"
A really good duet with PJ Harvey called Henry Lee is really good. Nick & PJ were dating at the time & the chemistry in the video is electric.
Also a track of the Murder Ballads album.Genre that fits in the Cave catologue.
Funnily enough, I've read he was barely aware that he and Harvey were in a relationship.
We did Henry Lee. Very interesting.
@@hanierfamily maybe try, Red Right Hand, or, Lime Tree Arbour, ......if you wanted to continue that is!
@@hanierfamily pj harvey - good fortune is worth listening to.

FYI, a little nitpick but it's Minogue as in vogue.
Oh. Glided O. We should have known that, considering our French heritage.

Murder ballads are a big part of American folk music, sometimes you have to embrace the strange 😂
Have you done Nick Cave “Do You Love Me”? or “Into My Arms”?
We did Into My Arms. We will add the other one to our list
Saw them perform this at The Big Day Out in 95. This took Kylie out of her squeaky clean image. Launched her edgier side.

Nick and Kylie. I wonder how that went down, but I guess it's about australian diaspora. Thanks, anyway!

Was this an old Irish folk song?
It does have that morbid theme that's found in many old Irish folk songs. This was written by Nick Cave.
@@I_was_a_Countdown_Kid-75-83 Hi Hayley. Does Nick Cave have Irish descendants?
@@colrhodes377 I don't know. He was raised Anglican, so if there is any Irish in him, it'd be pretty thin..
Gillian and I are of Irish and Scottish heritage.
@@I_was_a_Countdown_Kid-75-83 So you're actually Celts.
@@colrhodes377 Of Celtic heritage.
