Nick Cave

Con una larga trayectoria que comenzó a principios de los años setenta, la música de Nick Cave se caracteriza por un tono oscuro y siniestro, pero también por un interés hacia lo violento y lo erótico. Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds es una banda de rock/post-punk con una alineación internacional y fluctuante. Fue formada en 1984 por dos miembros de la desaparecida banda australiana The Birthday Party: Nick Cave (cantante, compositor) y el músico Mick Harvey. La banda grabó y lanzó su álbum debut From Her To Eternity en 1984. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds aparecieron en la película de Wim Wenders Wings of Desire. La canción "People Ain't No Good" está incluida en la banda sonora de la película animada Shrek 2.
I don't believe in an interventionist God
But I know, darling, that you do
But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him
Not to intervene when it came to you
Not to touch a hair on your head
To leave you as you are
And if He felt He had to direct you
Then direct you into my arms
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms
And I don't believe in the existence of angels
But looking at you I wonder if that's true
But if I did I would summon them together
And ask them to watch over you
To each burn a candle for you
To make bright and clear your path
And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
And guide you into my arms
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms
And I believe in Love
And I know that you do too
And I believe in some kind of path
That we can walk down, me and you
So keep your candlew burning
And make her journey bright and pure
That she will keep returning
Always and evermore
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms
