    my father introduced me to Nick Cave's music when I was a kid. He passed away last year after a very difficult fight with acute leukemia. I played this song on his funeral.

    Go son, go down to the water
    And see the women weeping there
    Then go up into the mountains
    The men, they are weeping too
    Father, why are all the women weeping?
    They are weeping for their men
    Then why are all the men there weeping?
    They are weeping back at them
    This is a weeping song
    A song in which to weep
    While all the men and women sleep
    This is a weeping song
    But I won't be weeping long
    Father, why are all the children weeping?
    They are merely crying son
    Oh, are they merely crying, father?
    Yes, true weeping is yet... to come
    This is a weeping song
    A song in which to weep
    While all the men and women sleep
    This is a weeping song
    But I won't be weeping long
    Oh father, tell me are you weeping?
    Your face seems wet to touch
    Oh, then I'm so sorry, father
    I never thought I hurt you so much
    This is a weeping song
    A song in which to weep
    While we rock ourselves to sleep
    This is a weeping song
    But I won't be weeping long
    But I won't be weeping long
    But I won't be weeping long
    But I won't be weeping long

      @@MrRUKnight Lou Reed is cool but I'd have to rank him below the other guys because Lou Reed always seemed to put too much effort into being cool and everybody knows that trying to be cool just isn't cool. Plus the whole pretentious NYC thing going on. Still pretty cool though.
      For the category of excellence in the effortless zen of coolness, I'd also nominate Iggy Pop, Kim Deal, and Tom Petty not necessarily in that order. I haven't quite worked out all the kinks in my Unified Theory of Coolness yet.

    This song always remind me of 2013 and early 2014, when I was so depressed, I kept listening this song for days and days, couldn't sleep without it. Then everything went back to normal, I started listening other songs instead of repeating this one all day. Now it's 3 years later, I'm in uni right now, everything in my life is fine, but I'll always remember this song, how did it help me with my life, heartbreaking yet inspired at the same time.

I wasn't the easiest son to raise or deal with, but damn he loved me no matter what. I'm just glad I was able to tell him that I loved him before it happened. Not everyone gets to do that. But damn this song stings. I miss him so much.

    THE WEEPING SONG
    Go son, go down to the water
    And see the women weeping there
    Then go up into the mountains
    The men, they are weeping too
    Father, why are all the women weeping?
    They are weeping for their men
    Then why are all the men there weeping?
    They are weeping back at them
    This is a weeping song
    A song in which to weep
    While all the men and women sleep
    This is a weeping song
    But I won’t be weeping long
    Father, why are all the children weeping?
    They are merely crying son
    O, are they merely crying, father?
    Yes, true weeping is yet to come
    This is a weeping song
    A song in which to weep
    While all the little children sleep
    This is a weeping song
    But I won’t be weeping long
    O father, tell me, are you weeping?
    Your face seems wet to touch
    O then I’m so sorry, father
    I never thought I hurt you so much
    This is a weeping song
    A song in which to weep
    While we rock ourselves to sleep
    This is a weeping song
    But I won’t be weeping long
    No, I won’t be weeping long
    No, I won’t be weeping long
    No, I won’t be weeping long
