People have been emailing me saying that Nick Cave has copped my semi-spoken vocal style for his new “Dig, Lazarus, Dig”. Me? I kinda a doubt it. What would Cave need with a trick from my worn bag even I was on his radar? I’m sure he came to the thing by his own route, but it’s a nice. Judge for yourself.
The secret word is Aggrandizement

C'mon, lets know our historuy. Lou Reed, for one infamous and enshrined example, was doing this before anyone in pop. This voccal could owe everything to John Cale singing 'The Gift' too.
I did say I kinda doubted it.
Ah, same old Anon,
It's a question of friends.
The news clip of Nick Cave's concert in Barcelona on Friday immediately made me think of Mick, though I'm not one of the people who mailed him about it.
Don't know what Leonard Cohen's up to these days but last time I saw Lou here he came on stage holding hands with Laurie in matching his 'n hers T-shirts.
Less said the better.
Do you never tire of being so fucking negative?

there's nothing negative at all in the comment, you are projecting.
and it's not a question of friends, it's a question of stylistic origins. what does what Lou Reed and his wife do now have to do with the ongoing ginormous inlfluence of the Velvet Underground of forty years ago? There's loads of singers since who have spoken their words!
Why vomit forth your own very negative, very judgmental bits about their singer and his wife, along with the superfluous and unladylike foul language?
Besides a common problem with logic, you seem to have some issues, projection being the least of it.
Too bad for you if getting senselessly bitchy upon blog comments has become your life's station. Would it not be a whole lot better to go on stage with a beloved making people happy?
I'm off to a charity show to provide scholarships to young jazz players.
Oh fuck!
Knew someone would see through the cover in spite of the lipstick.
