    #LearnEndlessBadSeedandNick Cave# After watching a lot of Italian documentaries, after finally seeing a normal documentary, I exclaimed that the filming was so good! The result of letting the protagonist write the script by himself is that he cannot escape the narcissism of the old Wenqing, pretending not to care to cover up a little bit of childhood...

    I just said how it felt weird to watch. It turned out that the screenwriter was himself, narcissistic and self-destructive. When he was a child, his father read "Lolita" to him, and when his son was a child, he showed them "Scarface" ” and happily imitated Al Pacino’s classic line “say hello to my little friend”. People like Nick Cave should be nailed in a coffin and buried in the hole, and then released during the performance. Will definitely want to drink the blood of all the audience under...

    "To act on a bad idea is better than to not act at all" I've been in a burnout state for a long time and I'm a little inspired after reading it, but I still have to continue making music (can't just think about cooking all day...

    Nick Cave, a singer I didn't know before, was recommended by my husband to watch this documentary together, love it! Will listen to his music next week. The language, music, scenery, and scenery in the film are fascinating. The memories of his father reading "Lolita" to him when he was a child, and jumping into the sea on a speeding train are as beautiful as old...

    The reason why the new album can be a culmination of one album after another, and I don't feel boring when I go back to listening to his youthful rebellion, I finally learned after watching it for 20,000 days. He will continue to reminisce and remember the poetic collection of records. The interlaced time and space power of Jubilee Street, the last zoomed-out lens, and...

    Here's a place, a place that you can forget who you are and become somebody else, a place where imagination and reality intersect. -- And isn't that what ART is all about? (In the studio, A Manifesto of Lust to Susie, the lastLive montage....

20,000 Days on Earth quotes

  • Nick Cave: The first time I saw Susie was at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and when she came walking in, all the things I had obsessed over for all the years - pictures of movies stars, Jenny Agutter in the billabong, Anita Ekberg in the fountain, Ali MacGraw in her black tights, images from the TV when I was a kid, Barbara Eden and Elizabeth Montgomery and Abigail, Miss World competitions, Marilyn Monroe and Jennifer Jones and Bo Derek and Angie Dickinson as Police Woman, Maria Falconetti and Suzi Quatro, Bolshoi ballerinas and Russian gymnasts, Wonder Woman and Barbarella and supermodels and Page 3 girls, all the endless, impossible fantasies, the young girls at the Wangaratta pool lying on the hot concrete, Courbet's Origin Of The World, Bataille's bowl of milk, Jean Simmons' nose ring, all the stuff I had heard and seen and read. Advertising and TV commercials, billboards and fashion spreads and Playmate of the Month, Caroline Jones dying in Elvis's arms, Jackie O in mourning, Tinker Bell trapped in the drawer, all the continuing, never-ending drip feed of erotic data came together at that moment in one great big crash bang and I was lost to her and that was that.

  • Nick Cave: In the end, I'm not interested in that which I fully understand. The words I have written over the years are just a veneer. There are truths that lie beneath the surface of the words... truths that rise up without warning, like the humps of a sea monster and then disappear. What performance and song is to me is finding a way to tempt the monster to the surface, to create a space, where the creature can break through what is real and what is known to us. This shimmering space, where imagination and reality intersect... this is where all love and tears and joy exist. This is the place. This is where we live.
