Bringing this thread back from the dead..

I'm not a big Nick Cave fan, but his new album has some amazing tracks.. This one in particular is hauntingly beautiful, especially when you know that his 11-12 year old son died while he was making this album.. I've never heard such deep and raw emotion portrayed so directly and beautifully.

Anyhow: Nick Cave - 'Distant Sky' off the album Skeleton Tree
