I really do not like Nick Cave.
Debby, I'll be glad to...

A is far from my favorite Nick Cave (and loses points for having Jarvis Cocker preening in the vid), but B is just ugly.

the cave video annoyed me intensely. had i heard the song in isolation, i probably would have liked it more.
i would never listen to the friday track for pleasure, but i admired its SPUNK if nothing else.

I was playing that Cave song earlier today, actually. It's good but not great, as is often the case with him there's a slight sense that he's faking it. The way the thing bursts open after a tasteful intro (strings! piano!) and his voice gains that frantic edge, but really he's not doing much except kicking his slippers off. But it's fine, I like it well enough. The video - yes I know it's not what we're voting for - is pretty cool.
B is just another pisstake. This has been a feature of this cup more than any other I can remember, these ridiculous synthetic patience-testing noises. I mean, maybe it's someone's sincere choice. But it's fucking horrible.

A feels almost a pastiche of a Nick Cave song. It felt predictable from the off and could easily have appeared on his first album, so easily and lazily did it tick all the boxes of 'this is what a Nick Cave song sounds like'. All of which meant I was very disposed to voting for B until I heard it. I don't think the world is ready for a gabba revival. Abstain.

Cave should give all his money to some extremist religious sect, gouge his eyes out and start preaching on street corners, or just stop making the same tired shit.
Debby is fun.

I'm not familiar the term gabba, so thanks for that.
She seems cool. The Cave track is a pretty obvs. pick as well. I like some of his earlier work, before he seemed to get so far up his ass.
Should be a fun one.

I enjoyed "No More Shall We Part" when it came out, and although this was my least favourite song on the album, I still am getting more enjoyment from it than from Debby Friday.

Brave pick A, Nick Cave ticks all the boxes to be hated by the preludiners. Me, I love most of his records and this is no exception. G is right about 'this is what a Nick Cave song sounds like'. Except he says that as if it were something bad.
B is the kind of thing some people pretend to like. I don't believe them.

I find Debby herself more interesting than the music so far... Am a little surprised she isn't more popular. Her most watched video has less than 19,000 views.
