    What a love song. These lyrics are just incredible - my favourite being ''the spinal column of JFK wrapped in Marilyn Monroe's negligee...''. Nick just makes everything better.

    - Just finally decided - Nick Cave is a fucking genius. ² - If I should ever be insane enough to decide to share my life forever with someone else, this is how my marriage-promise-words would be.

    I discovered this song while going for a jog in my neighborhood on a bright sunny spring day last year, just a perfect crystallized feeling of renewal and beauty. I am totally with you roadsidesbloom

    This song is not just one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.. it is one of the most beautiful things. Period. It competes with masterpieces of art, breathtaking natural landscapes, the sun in the sky and the stars themselves.

    Impossible to pick a line but what the hell, "the spinal cord of JFK wrapped in Marilyn Monroe's negligee".
