anyone notice how the entire thing is done in one single shot? an amazing video, an amazing song from an amazing songwriter. nick cave is tremendous
Not many artists can record a music video from one camera angle without being boring. These two captivate their audience as they simply sing their song and lose themselves in each other's eyes. Bone-chilling and real.
No lies here.
An what shite do we get 2day? Tata! We are so lost. Have a great day M.
never have I seen such well depicted romance... not in movies... not in other videos... nowhere.... it's P.J. and Nick that make me cry every friggin' time... just look at their movements, their feelings... GOD!
I would give to them a chemistry nobel prize for this way to look each other
actually at the time they barely new each other and I believe this was a one take. I imagine this video sparked their relationship.
why this doesn't have more likes, am I weird to love this joke so much?
Forget "find someone who looks at you the way Nick looks at PJ", find someone who looks at you the way Nick looks at the camera.
the video only gets better when you find out that during this video, they both fell in love with each other and ended up dating briefly.
its like this video recorded how people fall in love.
Chuntarita Can there be a hotter love affair than Polly Harvey and Nick Cave?...
God, I wish I was him.
***** idk i read it on an interview in the form of an article. and when nick was questioned about it, thats what he said.
An artist just knows when something is right. The chemistry in this video is a testament to that. Nick, always the mysterious, brooding dark knight, from the first time I met him in 1979 at the Crystal Ballroom playing in Boys Next Door aka (The Birthday Party) to the stage I shared with his band at 'All tomorrows parties' in 2010, always the showman. A big fan of his persistence and focus on his art.
Blabla dont care for your opinion this would of been way better if there was 30 different quick cuts of 80 diffrent camera angles just like marvel does it. You need to adjust to the modern audience! Kidding. I love this, two of the greatest. No autotune here. Have a good day M.
I am studing english 2 months. It is first song of english, which I memorized.
That's what I need: a girlfriend who looks exactly like me.
I had one that had the same haircut as me, and a few times, we wore the same colors and went out. We did get a few odd looks, haha.
I love the chemistry in this video.
Simply brilliant. Cave is a masterful lyricist and PJ is just sublime, I found her so beautiful and sensual. Amazing video.
When I read that trending article "To fall in love with anybody, stare for 4 minutes into each others eyes", I instantly thought about PJ and Nick in this vid. The article may have been crap, but their story makes it magical and somewhat realistic in the same time :)
I've melted. I love this video, I forget how much I love it until I watch it over and over.
Murder Ballads is such a brilliant album. This song and this video are absolutely stunning and perfect.
I looooooove this song the chemistry between Nick Cave and PJ Harvey is amazing . Absolutely brilliant
I'm more familiar with PJ's work, being a long time fan, but from what I've heard of Cave, they are essentially the male and female versions of one another.
Dream couple ;) Although I like Nick Cave way more, but still, PJ is great artist too :))
@@constancedouglas8513 Yes. They fell for each other during this one take video.
I've watched this video at least 7 times in two days...I'm so obsessed
Get down, 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 stay 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 in this deep deep well
Which is more than one hundred feet
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
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
This is one of the most sexy things I've ever seen. Wish the sexiness in movies, television and other media was this kind. A real thing. Love it.
Impresivno! Najbolji duo za kojeg znam. Super balada, slušati ću je dok sam živ. I to s uživanjem.
They only ever did 1 recording of this vid, it was all there, pure emotion, such love, sometimes so brief, but live in your heart forever
Two of the most creative songwriters and musicians alive today in my opinion
And still just as beautiful as ever. I doubt this song, This love, will never die.
Somethings are just meant to be for a moment, then some are forever no matter what this earth has to offer.....and they just melted my screen....
I just love the way he looks at her; it's so beautiful. Nick is such a love bug
Can you believe their relationship starts in this one-take video? OMG. PJ is really seductive.
the first 30 seconds during the first exchange in verse of the song along with their first glances into each other's eyes conjured one of the most powerful swells of emotion that I've felt in a long time. What is this that I feel? Remnants of a lost love, perhaps - yea, most likely.
Two legendary artists in one of the deepest pieces of music of the past 15 years, or even more.
Can't even start praising these two, they're beyond any little, unreaching word I could ever use on them. Thanx for sharing your beautiful art so finely.
Love the chemistry of subtle lust here.. and the fact that they mutually admitted of falling in love at first sight in the brief encounter of this video shooting. Nice!
Two lovely voices from two very talented and distinguished artists, each in their own right. I think they have great chemistry, "the camera likes them", and it has a European feel to it. A lot more comfortable showing affection. Very emotive! Thanks
That's pretty much one of the greatest videos I've ever seen. How could something that simple be that mesmerizing?
That's a great duet, they both have powerful, and beautiful voices.
You can just feel the emotion in every single movement. I love P.J. and Nick together, seriously.
Seriously though. I love how the insenity meant that a basically one shot video was never static. I love the passion portrayed without blatant sexuality. Ahh. So good.
I cant stop watching this!!!! Great song. I'm so glad you posted this.
I’ve always loved when he says “I love her better than thee.” PJ looks to be in physical pain, for just a moment.💔
Two of the best artists on the face of this earth in the same video...
The ultimate musical video. Period.
grandioso. it never ceases to steal my tears. such deep passion... such close distance... painful... sweet as a birds song.
This is really something, I just read that this is where the relationship began. Right here, on tape, one take.
This quality in 2006 is almost like posting a music video in 4K today... Excellent!
She's just stunning, and so is he.
john pl. you're right! English is not my first language haha, thanks for pointing it out 😉
No they are not. But they're excellent artists! Two different things though.
Well, I think they are so, you know, different opinions. But no doubt they're excellent artists! :)
This kind of makes me want to cry in a weird way. The song and this together is just amazing. Too amazing for words.
cave is the only one in the world that can make murder sound so beautiful
It's great how this music and video is able to transport so much of emotional feelings in a very minimalism way... hard to explain but it does touch me a lot!
The is one of the best remakes period. The chemistry is something else I love this video every single time I watch it so well done with one take. Their voices are beautiful together. Seeing them live different shows were phenomenal. The original is by Dick Justice 1929,as well as Cocaine around the same time..
Kinda funny that I had never heard this before today. My Grandfather's name was Henry Luther Lee. ❤
Well that was about the sexiest fucking thing I've seen in the past 12 minutes.
One of the most wonderful videos there is!
Thanks Cave & Harvey!
Imagine what they must have felt and going on in the stomachs... Still one of the most fascinating clips ever. Such tension. We all know how that feels I guess...
This gives me shivers, always. Just LOOK at their crazy chemistry. Perfection.
i just stumbled upon this video and i love it iveen listening to it for the past few days and i cant stop
its my new favorite song its so hauntingly beautiful .i love reading about pjs and nicks relationship when they sang this song because it really shows on the video.
I absolutely love this whole album. Murder Ballads has some of the most fucked up songs, and if you're not paying attention to the lyrics and just listening to the music you think they're just happy and bouncy.
This is so so beautiful, gives me goosebumps
jack white named his son henry lee. I would love to see pj harvey and jack white colaborate.
for the why there were for most of it, it made that kiss at the end seem awfully tame! one of my fav N.C. songs...thanks fer puttin it up!
Don't thank me, I'm just the uploader. Glad you enjoyed it though.
There are some peculiar comments on here. And perhaps thats a very important part and provides us with some real relevance. He goes out there and lays it all out. I've seen his life as an at times troubled journey through his music. He continues to fill me with wonder, joy, sadness, confusion, and importantly makes me want to ask questions of myself and beliefs around the questions he raises. I wouldnt want that to stop.
This is so beautiful
Oh I absolutely love this song. Their voices fit together so perfactly.
Really well-matched duet, go Cave go :)
Holy jesusgod.
This song, is captivating.
I absolutely love it...
It's gorgeous!
Sencillamente es espectacular, excelente dúo y que gran canción, aparte del histrionismo escénico para interpretarla. Grandes los dos, Nick y P.J.Harvey.
PJ and Nick Cave lived a passionate love and i think that video really shows their true love at the time..they way they look at each other, you can't fake that!..
Just to say 'Thank you' to both of them for letting us witness such an intimate moment between them. No better way to picture passion between two people who are -by the way- very attractive even though don't fit in what the media portray as sexy and attractive.
Mesmerizing, right? Will never get old.
Great video by 2 verry talented artists...thanks for uploading
Супер, можно смотреть бесконечно...
great duet, the facial expressions are so good and their voices really compares to each other
whew! The sexual tension in this one is addicting to keep watching
This is such a sensual video, and I love the song.
I Like this song so much. Love...
Strage how a song can bring you to tears and give you the shivers at the same time.
This is brilliant!
forgive my perspective, but I'd never heard of these two before this time and they blow so many concepts of what is sensual and beautiful! I'm in awe and I like it.
so sensuel ..... j'adore !!!
how genius this video ... I cried.
BEST VIDEO EVER
o traire intensa ce nu se poate explica...minunat !!!
one soul, two bodies
Two angels thank you so much you both
beautiful
I just read that interview in the Guardian too, this is such an amazing song and video.
This, "Where the Wild Roses Grow", and the Shangri-Las' 1966 classic "Past, Present, And Future" (ua-cam.com/video/QVMJN0fKJWI/v-deo.html) played back-to-back-to-back. Sheer romantic-melancholic bliss.
Every person has his/her all time favorite song.
Cave and Harvey are pure perfection.
beautiful dark romance
it is things such as this video that make me enjoy being a human so much.
this is something from out of this world, FANTASTIC really cool...the lyric, Nick and PJ and all in it, the piano all...:)
I know at one time P. J. Harvey and Nick Cave were in fact dating. Actually if I'm not mistaken they were dating when they made this video and the recording which really shines though here and in the song and makes it all the better. With their natural talents and chemistry it tops most of the other vids I've seen to date. Both amazing artists and while there probably won't be another colab like this in the future one can still hope.
how beautiful
Wow, nice video. How gorgeous Nick Cave was...
when i was a kid i saw this and i was all "THOSE GUYS ARE FUCKIN" then i grew up, and i watch it and im all "THOSE GUYS ARE FUCKIN"
I could watch the kiss at the end over and over and over...it always makes me smile.
This is such a sad song, a song of murder, yet the video displays a romantic ballad. Such an oddly beautiful contrast.
Murder Ballads, every song on the record is about a love that turns sour/murder...:)
Such Amazing Chemistry!
Smashin punkies
thats sums up most romances lol
Hermetic Kitten ASMR I love this comment nearly as I love this song 🖤
