Cave, Nick & The Bad Seeds : Fifteen Feet Of Pure White Snow

A great song from a fantastic album and a terrible single rolled into one.

A great song from a fantastic album and a terrible single
rolled into one. If ever a clue was needed as to why Cave enjoys commercial success in the album chart only, look here. This is a ghostly sermon about losing children under snow, released
in May. Hmm. Still, credit to the old buzzard for not sacrificing
his poor track record with singles by releasing a rip-roaring love song from 'No More Shall We
Part' - an album available for
you to buy instead.
