"Knowledge of the air" Auden? “We must love one another or die”
― W.H. Auden
“Poetry might be defined as the clear expression of mixed feelings.”
― W.H. Auden, New Year Letter
"In the past, Cave identified as a Christian. In his recorded lectures on music and songwriting, he has claimed that any true love song is a song for God and has ascribed the mellowing of his music to a shift in focus from the Old to the New Testaments. He does not belong to a particular denomination and has distanced himself from "religion as being an American thing, in which the name of God has been hijacked".[63] He said in a Los Angeles Times article: "I'm not religious, and I'm not a Christian, but I do reserve the right to believe in the possibility of a god. It's kind of defending the indefensible, though; I'm critical of what religions are becoming, the more destructive they're becoming. But I think as an artist, particularly, it's a necessary part of what I do, that there is some divine element going on within my songs."[64] When asked in 2009 about whether he believed in a personal God, Cave's reply was: "No".[65] When interviewed by Jarvis Cocker on 12 September 2010, for his BBC Radio 6 show "Jarvis Cocker's Sunday Service", Cave stated: "I believe in God in spite of religion, not because of it."[66]" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Cave) wiki lol...it's the wrong side of 6am give me a break! :)
"2013 conference keynote Q&A session, Cave explained: "I am Nick Cave and there is no going back to what I was. And on some level, I see that as being successful in my job and on the other hand sometimes it's fucking exhausting."
Sorry i got Nick Cave excited today ;s
