As a rule, we like the things Nick Cave does. So far that includes his new supergroup Grinderman, which apparently features ex-Triffids member Martyn Casey, ex-Cramps drummer Jim Sclavunos and Dirty Three member Warren Ellis. The band’s charmingly raunchy ode to sexual frustration, “No Pussy Blues,” has been amusing us all morning. Plus, now that Nick Cave is not 18 (he’s 49) he has the evolved wit of an adult to apply to this quintessentially adolescent problem. “I bought her a dozen snow white doves, I did her dishes in rubber gloves … but she still didn’t want to, she just never wants to” Cave seethes over a sick, throbbing bass. He reads her Eliot and Yeats, sucks in his gut, pats “her revolting little chihuahua,” and still this girl won’t put out? That’s cold. Isn’t it?

If Nick Cave is so damn cool, why’d you have to post that picture of him looking like the little bartender lady in “Silverado” ?

I saw Nick Cave in concert a few years ago. He is so intense. There was intense sexual energy going from him to me. If he was in Australia, we could meet in Latin America I would do him in a heart beat. That woman must have been a nun or dead or something.

You can have him! This Australian female bursts out laughing at his brand of intensity, I don’t find it alluring at all. Admire the musicality n’all, but wouldn’t bonk him if you paid me.

Well, I used to have this man in my shop for early morning coffee almost every day.. My dear Brighton memories.. Nick is probably just like every other man addicted to coffee making him so demanding…???

nick cave is right on with the male sexual frustration thing, with the heat and fever and pain of wanting it, and of being shut out by a woman in another mind space. the guitar illustrates the fever that men can get into. why we do is another thing, and some men don’t. it’s our minds, not bodies, a body-mind let out of control. as usual, way out there, absolutely individual and thus universal, nick cave makes another great song.

In response to Concordia above, this Australian female thinks there should be more intensity like Nick’s in the world, and would do him in a second – A is for any old how, darling, and N is for any old time.
