What Becomes A Legend Most?
Nick Cave & Kylie Minogue
"I’ve been @nickcaveofficial ‘s Wild Rose for 30 years. I’ll be @nickcaveofficial ‘s Wild Rose forever.🌹❤️ Thank you Nick ❤️❤️❤️" - Kylie Minogue
"Yes" It's been 30 years since Kylie Minogue became Nick Cave's "Wild Rose"
For those of you not in the loop the duo made a haunting ballad together called Where The Wild Roses Grow for Nick's brilliant album Murder Ballads.
This is one of my favorite collaborations ever! Check out the lyrics -
"On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
She lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
And I kissed her goodbye, said, "All beauty must die."
And I leant down and planted a rose 'tween her teeth
They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day"
Get the idea? Check out Kylie's version of Ophelia and watch the video after the jump!
