In his recent album, The Boatman's Call, rock's Merchant of Doom has turned his thoughts to love, and this tune is one of the more unashamedly romantic ditties, guaranteed to get your Goth girlfriend quivering with existential desire. Drenched in plangent piano and drizzling guitar, with Cave's vocals devilishly seductive.
