To honour MacGowan, Cave changed the lyrics to: "Now this song is over/We'll never find out what it means"
“Almost in spite of our fractious demeanours we had romantic natures. We recognised that in each other. And a love of words"
"If your intention is to become a singer, then you need to sing and sing and sing some more"
The collection was produced by Jack Antonoff
It will be the follow-up to 2019's 'Ghosteen'.
The latest in a series of covers of iconic Australian songs originally recorded by late producer Tony Cohen
"It is a special song, full of unspecified emotional impact and a great pleasure to play"
"Grief portioned into orderly stages does not make sense, on any level"
"I believe I am speaking for a generation here"
The playlist was created for new fans who were looking for a way to navigate Cave's "immense and bewildering" back catalogue
