Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Red Right Hand Lyrics	11 years ago
The author Peter Straub was a source of inspiration for Nick and this song reminds me of the Straub short story 'A Short Guide to the City' - a weird story written like a travel guide interspersed with news article excerpts about a serial killer on the loose called 'the Viaduct Killer'. Not sure if this story inspired the creation of the song but the similarities are there.

Radiohead – Where Bluebirds Fly Lyrics	13 years ago
There's words in there, but it's all in Thom Yorke's trademark marble mouthed mumbling layered with electronics. As if he's not incomprehensible enough as it is lawl.

Was Tracy Pew's favourite BP song apparently. Great song, but the live version performed by Nick and his Bad Seeds in recent years was even better.

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Do You Love Me? Pt. 2 Lyrics	15 years ago
It's based on the story 'The Juniper Tree' by Peter Straub (from his book 'Houses Without Doors') - a wonderfully disturbing work by a great author. Besides the 'jingle-jangle' and the chorus, I suppose it connects to Part 1 by how both songs seem to describe finding love as both a release and torment, and how the intensity of that particular moment can not be replicated.
