"Dead Man In My Bed" is also great but otherwise yeah

"Higgs Boson Blues" especially the slower dream-like version on the Live at KCRW is another Nick Cave tune from the last few years I have gone through periods of listening to over and over.

:It's just about the only track worth anything on "Nocturama".
I was going to say; it's an amazing song, the rest of the album is a complete snooze

I have this memory of ilx really not liking this track when it was new, is that just something I thought?

Babe was the b-side to Bring It On, no need for the album itself at all

Aside from Bring It On and Babe I'm On Fire, I also like Wonderful Life myself but its still a far from essential album. Think he was drifting for a bit: Abattoir Blues is a bit overblown Neil Diamond for me, and Dig Lazarus Dig is fun but not a lot of real spark, but the last two have been great.

This song would be the ultimate jukebox-hogger.

I’d forgotten about bring it on, a very underwhelming single - this should’ve been the (apocryphal) a-side!

it was a double A-side with He Wants You, but only as a radio edit (the video exists in both versions)

bring it on was good
