THIS WAS SO NEARLY A FRIDAY SERIES (Part 4)

With apologies to ctel who really does detest this lot.

The 27th of the 29 singles (so far). Released to complete apathy in February 2008 as a lead into the LP of the same name. Got as high as #73 in the charts. Which is actually quite respectable given that two out of every three singles by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds don't make the Top 100:-

mp3 : Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Dig Lazarus Dig!!
mp3 : Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Accidents Will Happen **

And sorry to disappoint anyone anticipating a cover of the hit single by Elvis Costello. The b-side is a Cave original.

** b-side not available due to a dmca notice served on me by Elvis Costello's label!!!

Here's yer promo:-




With the fairly recent departure of Mick Harvey, it will be very interesting to see what direction the next Bad Seeds LP gravitates towards....honestly ctel, it will be!!!!!

Fear and utter horror is all I feel at the thought of a Nick and Bad Seeds album without the orchstrator behind the scenes, Mick Harvey. God help us all.
