From minute 3:30 to 3:33 Gun Clubs' Jeffrey Lee Pierce can be seen standing in the background. He accompanied the recordings of Let Love In and the tour of the Bad Seeds that followed.
Martyn just carries the whole thing along with that bass and gives everyone else the freedom and space to work. Conway and Blixa just fucking fabulous here-- so minimal and yet so powerful. So often on stage Blixa just looks like he's never seen a guitar before. He doesn't give a fuck about how it's "supposed" to be played. But he's always creating something interesting with it.
I have watced 7 concerts of N.Cave:s band down in Greece ....it was exellent and sock moments of my life....Thank you Nick you and all the other gyus......
The most tragic thing I ever saw was Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds playing Lollapalooza at high noon on a hot sunny day. The poor band looked like they were going to melt.
this is probably the bad seedisht take of them that exists. amazing performance, whole cast still, spooky lightshow. cant argue with that. it can't get more bad seed than this video
The tune was perfect for scream. that line "along comes a tall handsome man with black dusty coat and a red right hand".... But also your "you're a microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan"... apt
Had the X-Files soundtrack in the 90’s, now with Spotify I’ve rediscovered Nick Cave, highly recommend the track “West country girl” for fans of this track if you are looking for more similar Nick Cave sounds
As versions of West Country girl go, I'd recommend his version during his lecture 'The secret life of the love song.' looks like it's available on TH-cam.
It's weird, back in the day, Nick and the Seeds were almost unknown where I lived at the time, but he got imported after Wim Wenders featured the band and even the album cover in the seminal "Wings of Desire". Then Nick got (imagine allcaps) hugely popular and now this song only makes me think of Peaky Blinders. Strange sort of cultural snake eating it's own tail, well, to me at least!
I once saw him walking by the streets of my hometown, São Paulo/Brazil, back in the 80's. He was visiting the Liberdade neighbourhood with a woman that I don't know if she was his girlfriend. Nice revival and superb song.
This is a prime example of how a full band can do so much and so little so tastefully
The lyrics are pure poetry. One of the greatest aussie song writers of all time
"AUSSIE?" I think he would agree when I say, MELBOURNIAN.

take that aussie out and put world in instead. Greetings from Poland.
From Paradise Lost apparently.
One of? I think it’s the greatest Australian artist alive..
this live version is sooo good. you can distinguish every contribution from each bad seed
This is a one piece of masterpiece which will never ever be replaced. Ever.
I thoroughly agree XO
It's like watching a Sergio Leone film. Masterpiece!
it’s like watching someone speak really slowly while they are blitzed on dope
EXACTLY. Winds me up no end when people relay it to peaky bellends 🙄
Right on, brother!
@@benyoung4305I actually associate it with the X-Files movie.
@@michaelbinbc opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one and they only care about their own. Look after yours my friend.
Glad this song got the show it deserved

The bassline is absolutely bangin
I feel those base in my soul.
Sou do Brasil e adoro Nick Cave. Baixista é muito bom
One of the greatest songs of all time.
I agree. Just like about another 1000 greatest songs of all time, I know.
There is no “one” greatest of all time. Only greater.
relax
I have this on video in the attic somewhere. ..hypnotised watching it as a 17 year old , they are an incredible band
27yrs!!!

Overlooked Avantgarde poet. Brilliant lyricist
Shows how memorable this performance was, i only saw this once back in 1994 and I remembered it perfectly in 2022 - Epic
Very glad that people rediscover Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
Perfect, nick cave always makes masterpiece songs ALWAYS
This song reminds me a lot of The Doors
That'll be the organ.
@@noverrr4508 the voice too
Same for me
Reminds me of Joy Division
I've always thought that too, it reminds me of Riders on the Storm at times.
The definitive line up of The Bad Seeds
I have watced 7 concerts of N.Cave:s band down in Greece ....it was exellent and sock moments of my life....Thank you Nick you and all the other gyus......
just a song, just a masterpiece
Hypnotic. Mysterious. Enchanting. I like.
Rest in Peace Conway Savage, great on the keys.
the way this is woven into peaky blinders is EXTRAORDINARY !!!!

Thank you BBC Music. I love when these pop up!
Such an incredibly tight performance.
Oh Nick, you can give me the chills anytime you sing “Red right hand 🖐” lol 😆
this is probably the bad seedisht take of them that exists. amazing performance, whole cast still, spooky lightshow. cant argue with that. it can't get more bad seed than this video
Wicked!,,, so dark and deep music.
The tune was perfect for scream.

apt
Oh the memories!!! 🥹 1994 archives for sure cause this took me back 🔥🔥
I can honestly say I didn’t think much of this song in 1994 but in 2024 it blows my mind. What a fuckin trip.
Haven't seen that in years, fecking awesome!
Saw these guys in Detroit on Nick's birthday in '91 - such charisma - one of the best shows ever!

Songs in the key of X, had some fine tracks from memory
One of the best voices in music, especially delightful (and sexy might I add) on the opener of the album that this very song is on, "Do You Love Me?".
"I guess they're right! Senior citizens, although slow and dangerous behind the wheel, can still serve a purpose. Don't you go dying on me!"
Yes you made my day
👏👏👏👏👏👏
That's my first memory of the song... then Scream. Amazing that it's hung out in the soundtrack shadows forever. Because. It's. Perfect.
“Alright, just get the bare essentials though, that’s the last of our dough!” “Hey, what do I look like?”
“I got robbed by a sweet old lady on a motorised cart”
I know this from the Scream movies. Fit that movie really well.
A good and clear version.
This song just makes me go all swirly..that's all ...I now get it..ha x
saw them in Washington when blixa was in the lineup. Amazing

I feel like I'm falling in love with nick while this video (and cameraman too)
Sin duda alguna, el artista más grande que queda en estos tiempos . El mejor Letrista del sigo XXI.
Just so Awesome and great man it's so impossible to pin it down it's just that Fantastic. Well Done and you Should Be. Brilliant.
Amazing song. Amazing band. Amazing performer. Did I mention this is an amazing version?
Amazing! Amazing word amazing you're amazing for using it Mr. Amazing! I like Marvellous. Marvellous is amazing also, right? Amazing!
@@echo1174 Should've ended with "Marvelous" there. Would have made your comment extraordinary... :-P
Andrew Weatherall mixed it at one of his gigs. Absolutely epic, miss that fella.
Wonderful.
what a one off this one. Mr Cave that is...good book too.
THE BEST.
Peaky fookin blinders🔥
Best version ever.
i'm speachless... this was AMAZING
Amazing right?
I first heard this song for the film scream and I really like this song because it does go with the film because it goes you a chill
Such a brilliant song.
Beautiful, chilling and erudite.
I once saw him walking by the streets of my hometown, São Paulo/Brazil, back in the 80's. He was visiting the Liberdade neighbourhood with a woman that I don't know if she was his girlfriend. Nice revival and superb song.
Elrond has some pipes!
I really like this song and the way it is performed. (Posting for Mr. Sidney Prescott.)
Surprised no one mentions the movie "Scream" got me into this
Blixa!! ❤️
love me some Aussie music
He did a brilliant job singing that song. Nightmare to sing
This version is dark and blues /Raw and powerful..Nick Cave and the bad seeds.
pânico, toda vez que escuto essa música me vem o filme em mente
Brilliant Lyrics
sublime
Temazo
Por ordenes de los Peaky Blinders. Esta es la mejor canción ♥️
Reminds me the scream movie 😂 i love nick 8
Primeira vez que ouvi. Boa música! Compartilhem
Brasil
That's incredible.
luxury soundscapes
The joint of Kosher Dawg has heightened this ever so slightly
Wooow. Great performance.
*Fan*tastic work done!
in the bleak mid winter!
Was never a fan of this song, but.
Nick’ hair is on point.
I was robbed by a sweet old lady on a motorized cart and I didn't even see it coming!
Hahaha!
Bravo!!
Remember Mark and Lard having this in heavy rotation around that time!
pure class
Live Seeds is the greatest live album of all time. I said it.
Happy Birthday, Blixa!
Great performance. With Blixa still part of the band.
Incrível...muito bom..ta ka gota Nick Cave...
Love this!!!
Timeless..
C
The best!
Textbook of how to create a sense of impending doom and eeriness in music. Scary shit.
This song is immortal in its own right. But he is Thomas Shelby.
They should use this song for a TV show!
@@oopsgirl44 😑
Nah, it would never work
This is how you get a way singing a song without actually singing. Love it
Before peaky… and deserved of my respect ❤
This sure reminds me of scream 1-5
My love
Amazing
I got robbed my a little old lady on a motorized cart...and i didnt even see it coming!
Кайфую 👏👏👏👍
... the best, is they just let the song unfold, without trying to command it.
Song is good, should be used in a gangster series
