I love Nick Cave's version of In the Ghetto too, heartbreaking tale isn't it?

Think this was the first Bad Seeds single & if you want more heartbreak check out Stanley Winston, if you haven't already. No one seems to know anything about him. He made this one single and vanished. Anyway, thanks for stopping by, Beth.

No I haven't - will look on YouTube, if I can throw my girls off the computer.

he has quite extraordinary hair in it, Nick Cave at his best in my opinion :-)

I'll check out Stanley Winston when I'm feeling stronger, thank you!
