I need a cigarette to keep my fingers warm

Watching Moby perform live gets weirder every year. I couldn't really say why, just that I feel compelled to see him again the next time I can.

Gods and monsters, I'm in a weird mood. That may be part of the weather, and because I stayed up til the ealry hours of morning dealing with a very strange aspect of my latest character's personality. This extreme take on honor and and doing things the right way is disconcerting.

Wow. Holy Hell, there's a video for "The Mercy Seat?" I have never seen this. Of all the Nick Cave songs I know and love, this one always gives me the creeps.

How weirdly appropriate for this moment. I want to run, I want to scream, I'd like to just be something else for a time.

Johnny Cash covered mercy seat on the last album he did.
It is really really good.
You should pick it up if you get a chance, it's just calle 'Cash' and has a black and white silhouette photo of him back stage at a concert or something. There's also a cover of U2's 'One' and Tom Petty's 'Won't back down'. Oh, and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are his backup band on the whole album. Really good stuff.

Wow, Petty and Johnny Cash. I must hear this. Thanks for telling me, I'll have to go hunt it down.

Just got it on BearShare. It is...different. Wholly acoustic, and perfectly clear.
