This song is from Nick Caves album "Murder Ballads". Its actually a conversation between the victim and her murderer. Interestingly, that what a massive hit in Europe in the 90ties. Nick Cave is Australian just like Kylie..I especially love his "Weeping Song" with him and Blixa Bargeld, his German guitarist, on vocals..

Kylie was a muse for so many Australian musicians, not only nick cave but her one time boyfriend Michael Hutchence (RIP) lead singer of Australian band INXS. Michael wrote a hit song about Kylie called “suicide blonde” supposedly about the name of Kylie’s hair dye 😊 Also Kylie is a true ICON and a cancer survivor who is considered Australian royalty This song was nominated for an award by MTV but Nick cave does not make music for awards etc he is a true musician.. there is a clip on YT of Nick Cave reading out a letter he wrote MTV, if you get a chance to watch it, I recommend you do as it is fantastic. There is also a clip of Kylie reading what Nick wrote

This was no accident or someone coming to their senses. This song is about a serial killer who kills beautiful women and then leaves them with a red rose between their teeth, told from the point of view of one of his victims; hence, “And I kissed her goodbye / said, ‘All beauty must die’ / and I leant down and planted a rose ’tween her teeth”. The whole album is called _Murder Ballads_ which should also tell you something about the context.

Ophelia is an 1851-52 painting by British artist Sir John Everett Millais in the collection of Tate Britain, London. It depicts Ophelia, a character from William Shakespeare's play Hamlet, singing before she drowns in a river. The work encountered a mixed response when first exhibited at the Royal Academy, but has since come to be admired as one of the most important works of the mid-nineteenth century for its beauty, its accurate depiction of a natural landscape, and its influence on artists from John William Waterhouse and Salvador Dalí to Peter Blake, Ed Ruscha and Friedrich Heyser.

The Wild Rose is a scary urban legend about a girl named Elisa Day (or Eliza Day) who was murdered by her boyfriend many years ago. The story inspired the Nick Cave song “Where the Wild Roses Grow”.

Nick Cave is an incredible writer and composer. I recommend reading his two novels, "The Death of Bunny Munro" (in which Kylie figures prominently) and "And the Ass Saw the Angel," as well as listening to the relatively recent single "Bright Horses" and an old favorite of mine, "The Ship Song." As for his screenplays, feast your eyes on 2005's "The Proposition," for which he also penned the score.

I think this is a commentary on how the victims of murderers can be identified by the name the media gives them / the murderer, and who they actually were gets lost. She was left near the wild roses with a rose in her mouth - so was only remembered as 'the wild rose' and not as Eliza Day, a real person.

Whatever you do, GO SEE NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS LIVE. Promise you, you won't regret it. It's a spiritual experience. Get into their discography as well. It goes deep. Nick Cave is one of the greatest songwriters of all time. He's written about death a lot in his career, as well as religion. One of his signature songs is The Mercy Seat written about a man about to be executed. It was covered by Johnny Cash.

I'm surprised you hadn't heard of Nick Cave. You might know his "Red Right Hand" theme song from the "Scream" movies. I have an appreciation for his music now, but didn't when I first heard him. My animation professor used to play it during our classes. I just thought it was weird music for a class where we all sat in a dim or dark room. But he's standard on my playlists now.

This is a murder ballad modeled after the traditional ballad, murder ballads illustrate a narrative that hashes out the events of a murder. Often inspired by real events (“Omie Wise”), these ballads typically involve the murder of a woman by her lover . Today we would know these as serial killers. But many ballads is the way news traveled the singer would go from town to town. Murder ballads would be a sub genre of other ballads

While I don't listen to him all the time - I do have Nick Cave phases and he has written some incredible songs. From this album, 'Murder Ballads' - the song 'Stagger Lee' is certainly a talking point, but my favourite is 'As I Sat Sadly By Her Side' (album version, ideally - not the edit - although the video is quite nice) from 'No More Shall We Part' - a few years later.

If you’re ready for the next scene….also listen to the song that almost naturally follows this murder ballad story, also written by Nick Cave, called - ‘Little Water Song’. Listen to Ute Lemper’s version. You experience what the character Elisa Dane experiences once she is below the water’s surface, moving and chilling….

I don't like this version of the song to be honest. I love the Bad Seeds and Nick's earlier bands, like The Birthday Party, but this version is boringly slow but what's worse is that Kylie is very pretty and she does have a good voice but she has NO expression? She sings it all the same. I then prefer the version where Nick sings this with his former bandmate Blixa live. Blixa sounds confused as to why they call him The Wild Rose, and not Eliza Day. He sounds betrayed when Nick has killed Eliza with the rock in his fist. I wished Kylie had used some more feelings in her singing, then maybe this could have been really good...
@Sthuont12 күн бұрын
It's hard for me to comprehend how you can perceive Kylie's performance as lacking emotion or expression... she's playing the character Eliza Day as tentative, innocent, naive, soft, vulnerable, and ultimately, lost, confused, and broken. Yes, it's not a melodramatic and passionately emotive performance, but that's completely intentional, as that's not who the character Eliza Day is. As the lyrics state repeatedly through to the very end of the song, she still has no real comprehension of what happened to her... which all just reinforces how innocent and naive she was and how confused and lost she remains. It's devastating and perfect. I've heard a few covers of "Where The Wild Roses Grow" by other performers, and they've all been much more melodramatic and passionate, and they all come across as performative to me and leave me feeling cold. Kylie's restrained, delicate, innocent approach, instead feels so much more raw and visceral and gut-wrenching.
