NICK CAVE(2)
今天的NICK CAVE在样貌上已经没有了从前那么阴森邪恶。其实踏入九十年代,NICK在生活上亦出现了一定的改变。当年
他在巴西遇上了一见钟情的美术指导VIVIANE CARNEIRO,二人便火速结婚,在圣保罗洲定居了两年,诞生了一名儿子LUKE,那时NICK已不
再沉溺于海洛英里,性情亦转向温和。虽然不久后他亦与VIVIANE分离,但到了现在,现实生活中这位黑暗教父却是以与五岁儿子一起生活为
荣。远离了海洛英,不单没有影响到NICK的创作灵感,反而回复独身的他笔触亦趋向细嚼深入。94年的LET LOVE IN便以角度写尽了他与
妻子的感情问题与失败,而THIRSTY DOG更是一首他自言为“自传式”忏悔心曲。如果说LET LOVE IN是一张很私人的作品的话,那么新作
MURDER BALLADS便是一套纯粹由NICK假想出来的短篇谋杀案故事。
大碟THE BOATMAN’S CALL,感觉像是翻开NICK CAVE的私人日记。随着歌曲翻开的,是一段段很私人的情感,一些往事的片段速写,一些残留
在时间背后的感觉。正如NICK CAVE自己承认,THE BOATMAN’S CALL是他
的创作生涯中,最个人的一张大碟。去年的MURDER BALLADS,无疑是NICK事业上的一个高峰。这张大碟,为他带来前所未有的商业成就。但在NICK
而言,MURDER BALLADS不但并非自己的最好作品,同时他更对MURDER BALLADS的艺术成就有所怀疑,认为并非外界所评价的那么高。接着另一张BA
LLAD大碟——THE BOATMAN’S CALL。相对于MURDER BALLADS的虚构杀
人情歌,THE BOATMAN’S CALL是一张很私人的伤感情歌集。THE BOATMAN’
S CALL中的所有歌曲全是他在过往几年的情感记录。风格洋溢着一派PIANO(钢琴)美感,木结他、小提琴...其简单而基本组合,随心而发的细腻感
情纠缠,一切来自NICK CAVE痛苦的源泉。THE BOATMAN’S CALL蕴涵着
NICK CAVE傲骨的感情世界,你是否有兴趣从这张唱片一窥NICK CAVE在MURDER BALLADS中屠杀人数超过六十人的“杀人魔王”的内心世界。

一些歌词
WEST COUNTRY GIRL
With a crooked smile
And a heart-shaped face
Comes from the West country
Where the birds sing bass
She's got a house-big heart Where we all live
And plead and counsel and forgive
Her widow's peak,her lips i've kissed
Her glove of bones at her wrist
That i have held in my hand
Her spanish fly and her monkey gland
Her godly body and its fourteen stations
That i have embraced,her palpitations
Her unborn baby crying ,"Mummy"
Amongst the rubble of her body
Her lovely lidded eyes i've sipped
Her fingernails, all pink and chipped
Her accent which i'm told is "broad"
That i have heard and has been poured
Into my human heart and filled me
With love ,up to the brim,and killed me
And rebuilt me back anew
With something to look forward to
Well,who could ask much more than that?
A west country girl with a big fat cat
That looks into her eyes of green
And meows,"He loves you",then meows again
----------From"The Botman's Call"

I LET LOVE IN
despair and deception,love's ugly little twins
came a-knocking on my door,i let them in
darling,you're the punishment for all my former sins
i let love in
the door it opened just a crack,but love was shrewd and bold
my life flashed before my eyes,it was a horror to behold
a life-sentence sweeping confetti from the floor of a concrete hole
i let love in
well i've been bound and gagged and i've been terrorized
and i've been castrated and i've been lobotomized
but never has my tormenter come in such a cunning disguise
i let love in
o lord, tell me what i done
please don't leave me here on my own
where are my friends?
my friends are gone
so if you're sitting all alone and hear a-knocking at your door
and the air is full of promises, well buddy,you've been warned
far worse to be love's lover than the lover thathas scorned
i let love in

NOBODY'S BABY NOW
i've searched the holy boods
tried to unravel the my stery of jesus christ,the saviour
i've read the poets and the analysts
searched through the books on human behaviour
i travelled the whole world around
for an answer that refused to be found
i don't know why and i don't know how
but she's nobody's baby now
i loved her then and i guess i love her still
here is the face i see when a certain mood moves in
she lives in my blood and skin
her wild feral stare,her derk hair
her winter lips as cold as stone
yeah,i was her man
but there are some things even love won't allow
i held her hand but i don't know how
but she's nobody's baby now
this is her dress that i loved best
with the blue quilted violets across the breast
and these are my many letters
torn to pieces by her long-fingered hand
i was her cruel-hearted man
and though i've tried to lay her ghost down
she's moving through me,even now
i don't know why and i don't know how
but she's nobody 's baby now

HENRY LEE
Get kown,get down,little henry lee
And stay all night with me
You won't find a girl in this damn world
That will compare with me
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
I can't get down and i won't get down
And spend all night with thee
For the girl i have in that merry green land
I love far better than thee
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
She leaned herself against a fence
Just for a kiss or two
And with a little pen-knife held in her hand
She plugged him through and through
And the wind did roar and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
Come take him by his lilly-white hands
Come take him by his feet
And throw him down this deep deep well
Which is more than one hudred feet
And the wind did howl and the wind ded blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
Lie there,lie there,little henry lee
till the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home
And the wind did howl and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee

WHERE THE WILD ROSES GROW
They call me the wild rose
but my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it i do mot know
For my name was Elisa Day
From the first day i saw her i knew she was the one
As she stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river ,all bloody and wild
When he knocked on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man,and with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
On the second day i 'd seen
I said,"Do you know where the wild roses grow
So sweet and scarlet and free?"
Oh the second day he came with a single red rose
Said:"Will you give me your loss and your sorrow?"
I nodded my head,as i lay on the bed
He said,"If i show you the roses will you follow?"
On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing i heard was muttered word
As he stood smiling above me with a rock in his fist
Oh the last day i took her where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank,the wind light as a thief
As i kissed her goodbye,i said,"All beauty must die"
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
---------From"Murder Ballads"

DEATH IS NOT THE END
When you're sad and when you're lonely
And you haven't got a friend
Just remember that death is not the end
And all that you held sacred
Falls down and does not mend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end,not the end
Just remember that death is mot the end
When you're standing on the crossroads
That you cannot comprehend
Just remember that death is mot the end
And all your dreams have vanished
And you don't know what's up the bend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
When the storm clouds gather round you
And heavy rains descend
Just remember that death is not the end
And there is no-one there to comfort you
With a helping hand to lend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
For the tree of life is growing
Where the spirit never dies
And the brght light of salvation
Up in dark and empty skies
When the cities are on fire
With the burning flesh of men
Just remember that death is not the end
And you search in vain to find
Some law-abiding citizen
Just remember that death is not the end
And you search in vain to find
Some law-abiding citizen
Just remember that deathis not the end
Not the end,not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end,not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end,not the end
Just remember that death is not the end

LIME- TREE ARBOUR
The boatman calls from the lake
Alone loon dives upon the water
Iput my hand over hers
Down in the lime-tree arbour
Through every breath that i breathe
And every place i go
Thee is a hand that protects me
And i do love her so
There will always be suffering
It flows through life like water
I puts her hand over mine
Down in the lime tree arbour
The boatman he has gone
And the loons have flown for cover
She puts her hand over mine
Down in the lime tree arbour
Through every word that i speak
And every thing i know
There is a hand that protects me
And i do love her so
