Lyrics:
Where is Mona?
She’s long gone
Where is Mary?
She’s taken her along
But they haven’t put their mittens on
And there’s fifteen feet of pure white snow?
Where is Michael?
Where is Mark?
Where is Mathew
Now it’s getting dark?
Where is John? They are all out back
Under fifteen feet of pure white snow
Would you please put down that telephone
We’re under fifteen feet of pure white snow
I waved to my neighbour
My neighbour waved to me
But my neighbour
Is my enemy
I kept waving my arms
Till I could not see
Under fifteen feet of pure white snow
Is anybody
Out there please?
It’s too quiet in here
And I’m beginning to freeze
I’ve got icicles hanging
From my knees
Under fifteen feet of pure white snow
Is there anybody here who feels this low?
Under fifteen feet of pure white snow
Raise your hands up to the sky
Raise your hands up to the sky
Raise your hands up to the sky
Is it any wonder?
Oh my Lord Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord Oh my Lord
Doctor, Doctor
I’m going mad
This is the worst day
I’ve ever had
I can’t remember
Ever feeling this bad
Under fifteen feet of pure white snow
Where’s my nurse
I need some healing
I’ve been paralysed
By a lack of feeling
I can’t even find
Anything worth stealing
Under fifteen feet of pure white snow
Is there anyone else here who doesn’t know?
We’re under fifteen feet of pure white snow
Raise your hands up to the sky
Raise your hands up to the sky
Raise your hands up to the sky
Is it any wonder?
Oh my Lord Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord Oh my Lord
Save Yourself! Help Yourself!
Save Yourself! Help Yourself!
Save Yourself! Help Yourself!
Save Yourself! Help Yourself!

Τhis guy, just because he is still alive, he deserves Grammy, Oscar... His music, is outstanding. And lyrics....

This song manages to be melancholic and uplifting at the same time. It's like it's inviting us to dance while crying.
Very good explanation mate! 👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

😊üüüüüü
Like a perfect dose of pure white snow.
Oh my lord, this video!!! Can play it over and over!
I didn't know I wanted to see Jarvis Cocker dancing to a Nick Cave song until I saw this video.
But did you know you wanted to see Jason Donovan dancing to a Nick Cave song?
Wow😲
Too cool.
Im 67 and still have the urge to dance when I hear this. best concerts I have even been to. What a band.
Well I’m 64 and hell yea,makes me 50 years younger,look out retirement home
Hell, you could be 670 years old and still be moved by this :)
Ma vai alla ‘baggina vá
Hope for Me at 51
With you my friend, although it's my 53rd year I saw and met them when they were touring with The Good Son album in the early 90s, at the Somerville Theater in metro Boston.
Epic, although I have to admit, most of us would not have guessed how far they'd get in the decades to follow. They just got better and better as they produced albums.
Just saw them 2 years ago and they're still amazing 😍.
The solo Livestream he just did from the Alexandria Palace in London was also top notch. I saw it live, but it was on YT last I checked.
Watching the Bad Seeds dance in their own videos is pure bliss. I love how they dance with all their heart but they don’t take themselves all that seriously at it. Blixa has some fun moves always. I love how The innovator of German post-punk industrial experimental sound evolved over the years into a very well rounded , professional musician. How lucky we are that Nick met Blixa. Pure Musical alchemy.
god damn... nick cave, warren ellis, mick harvey and blixa bargeld in the same line-up. i think people still dont recognize how many genius musicians were in this band....
+Weedian Warren Ellis did a lot for the sound of Nick's music. I adore him (Warren), Nicks great too.
i do recongnize
Don't give him all the credit. He's done a lot for the sound of Nick's music in the later years, which was a big part of why Mick Harvey left. I can't blame him, I prefer the earlier sound of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds as well.
Us birthday party people know
Was just commenting to a friend on that line-up. Insane.
Jason Donovan in the perfect moment of a perfect high, havin the best time. Love it.
I love the way Nick Cave gets into his own groove. If he was someone else it would look like "dad dancing" but his movements mirror his emotion. Utterly compelling!
Hello Brenda
Well he is a dad lol
@@agstinacueva1673 oh yes, forgot about that :-D!
I'm not a dad but I dance like that on weddings. My legs are cut.
Un poeta ed un cantante
What a great song, video, and the bell-bottoms, and Jarvis Cocker.
My friend and I use to walk along the beach booming out Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds on our tape recorder full boar as 14 year olds
😂 🖤🎵🎶
The only one sober is the dog!
Around 2010 ,it’s your guess
Haha
Согласен, та что скулит 😂
Sounds like my house😅
dog doesn’t look sober to me
I'm from Bosna i Hercegovina. The part of country where I live is west Hercegovina. Yesterday was the first day of spring. Usually it's warm in this time of year and people are wery busy with agriculture. But every 10 or 15 years snow is falling down on this day. And it's snowing right now as I'm listening to this song and writing this. The whole atmosphere is.... man i need another drink.
this is what i love in Nick Cave.. nobody can do music like this
This song and vid are on my funeral play list. Everyone who attends (probably 3 or 4 people) must do the dance.
How do I get an invite? This is a phenomenal idea 🔥
When you die, send me an invitation please!
Absolutely.
I will put you on the invitations list.
3 or 4? Probably better than me. But hey, we make our choices. It’s alright.
May I just say? Much better this than what he’s been putting out lately. My opinion which does not matter at all. 😎
I'm 15 years old, and my father presented this song to me 3 years ago. Magnificent. I can't imagine how Nick Cave filmed this video in Kazakhstan, near my motherland. I love it!
(sorry for my bad English)
Your English is great
Nothing wrong with your English as Toby K said, Kazakhstan has a Great Heritage and History and always hoped to visit someday. D
Better English than 99% of Americans I know
Top, top fathering, right there.
@@TheLyricProfessors actually he's kinda abusive to me and my little brother, but at least he has a good taste in music
The lineup of Cave, Harvey, Bargeld, Wydler, Casey, Savage and Ellis plus Sclavunos is arguably the greatest concentration of musicians in a single band, maybe ever.
* I totally agree. The best lineup
And a messy night😂
Totalmente de acuerdo...
100%
Greatest?
Thank you for providing me with my daily LAUGH, Slave! 😂
Incidentally, Slave, are you VEGAN? 🌱
if you have ever wanted to be in a music video this has got to be it
Damn! I was drinking and found this video...and wanted to see Nick so much, that I bought a ticket on Ticketmaster for May 9th 2020, but I was so drunk ,that I didn't realize that the concert is in Dublin...and I am in Atlanta... Now I am going to get drunk tomorrow again and buy air ticket. Why, Nick, you do not visit Atlanta anymore??? See you in Dublin!
P.S. Nick heard my cry.(too late)😂😂😂he comes to Atlanta on October 3
rd... I've got the ticket, this time being sober..will see Nick 2 times this year, he is worth it!
Now , when Dublin concert is cancelled, waiting you back at home in Atlanta in October...just need to return my Delta ticket.
P.S. The concert is rescheduled for April 24 th 2021.Now have to rebook hotel and flights.. damn corona.see Nick in Atlanta first.😀
We will meet up with you if you want. Going to get my husband a ticket. We live in Dublin.
@@2626able It sounds good! But ...do you live in Dublin ( Ireland) or Dublin , GA?
Dublin Ireland
@@2626able yeah, Let's meet! I haven't bought the flight yet, but i'll let you know when i do..
@@adreykful brillant,can't wait .
Save my SOUL and we get Nick Cave
Coolest fucking band ever.
You being a Nick Cave fan makes so much goddamn sense.
But With BLIXA
Absofuckinlutely
Just utterly brilliant!! Bought this record on the day it was released in Norway back in 2001.. walked miles through pouring rain for getting to the nearest record shop to get my copy of this masterpiece!
I bet it was worth it !
Imagine if Pj Harvey and Cave where still together..Perfection in musical form..Unbeatable..
Not many true rock stars left... Nick Cave is surely one of them.
One of my favourite Cave tracks, brilliant
I've been listening to the song for years now and yet this is the first time to see the clip. What a beautiful one!
When Nick started dancing I was instantly reminded of Jarvis Cockers common people... Then I saw the Jarv and my mind was blown.
Not sure why but I feel like if Wes Anderson and David Lynch had a baby who became a filmmaker, this is the kind of videos it would direct
Oh yeah)))
Sralis mazgalis
just the best singer that life has allowed me to know
Happy 61 years Nick .. Keep up giving us great music ..
Nick is the Preacher
We are the sheeps
And all are dancing in the gospel
Blixa The Maestro
I love how Nick Cave's music seethes with decadence.
Dan Slash that's amazingly eloquent yet surprisingly accurate
Wow, beautifully put man. All you need is to add Uncle before his name as we do.
I call him uncle nick as well!
Hearing Nick Cave play this song live in Bremen 25 Jan 2020 was just the most amazing thing I have ever heard. This is the first time I saw the video. LOVE IT !
Nick Cave, absolute pure genius.
I have seen him perform live 3 times & each time it was amazing.
This year will be my 10.time to see him in live from 1997.when I first time see him I was in love in his work and him for life !!!!!
i used to play this to my children when they were aged 10 and 7. how lucky were they, because they now understand musically what matters! lol.
kevin houlihan great dad
My dad's a massive fan of nick cave i remember watching this dvd think it was a live nickcave dvd not sure it had this song on, do love bit nickcave
How cool can a band be. This is Epic!
O’ Blixa! My heart goes out you , Lad!
Merry Christmas, Caveans. May it be covered in fifteen feet of pure white snow, wherever you are.
I love the way they move 😍😍😍😍
Nick cave's sound represent the fucking world how some of us knows it
what a track the man is a genius
Love how Jason Donovan appears in here like he's just enjoyed Fifteen Feet of Pure White Snow
Iconic video, love it
Noone credits Nick for his fabulous sense of humour. It runs strong even in his most tragic stuff
Hallelujah springs to mind. "With her hot cocoa and her medication, my nurse had been my one salvation, so I turned back home." So bleak but also comically absurd.
There is also a nice dog in the party....I adore this song!!!
Have you seen Blixa ? He is crazy again ! We love, Blixa ! Neubauten forever!
I thinks some of these people attended the same dance school as me!
This comment made me smile haha
Ultravioleta
Let us guess ... the smoke filled clubs of the 80s where Goth would ´very occasionally` get played much to our adolescent drunken / drugged up stupor´s satisfaction which would prompt us to semi - consciously move to the sombre , sensual , stylish ( by accident ) at times expression of the synchronicity between the sound and that fleeting instant of existence .
An amorphous dance of shadows to the onlooker staring at the dancefloor from a couple steps above ...
Watch ´do you love me ` video , that might just have been your school .
I'm so sorry.
Still the best music video ever made...who could top that?
Where did all the comments go??? Nearly 8 million views (quite a lot of them mine). Blixa, Jarvis and a whippet. Class.
I need a Night club in which they only play the bad seeds
And they could call it The Bucket of Blood.
🥰🥰🥰🥰!!!!
Would dance there until my last day will arrive 🔥!
love his moves
Piękne. Nigdy o Pani Nick'u nie powiem, ze zagraca mi bibliotekę domową. Raczeń wieńczy i się rozsiada w niej. Uwielbiam szczególnie ten kawałek. Przenosi w czas przed moim narodzeniem. Cud.
Id love to be dancing at that party...
+moonatikat Me toooo ...
Phuck yeah!
Yes..... and me too.
Welcome :))
Yes! Me too!
I cant wait to go to partys like these again after lockdown
I doubt theres an inch left of all that pure white snow
Not after THAT party...
Global warming.
Быдло масса не переведён.
😂❤😂
Reminds me of spending midsummer night in a Helsinki bar. Drunk and lost in weird, suspended time
I love Jason Donovan in this film clip.... oh and Nick is awesomeness
The man is elegance personified...
Genius.
Великолепно! Клип потрясающий!!!
I think I'm the only person on earth that likes to workout to Nick Cave.
nah bro i do the same thing lol
I just love nick
Danke Nick und Blixa
Crazy perfect! Period!
Nick Cave = Genius!
Agreed
Love…. Dig Jarvis Cockers lil vogue ditty 🥰
all my Love - Nick Cave!!!
One of the best songs i've ever heard. Nick Cave is THE ONE!
Touring again with The Bad Seeds in 2017 already kicked off .. GO!!
24 of June here in Greece ;)
No sorry to break your heart but when I checked recently Nick and the band are playing dates only in America in May and June after the Australia/NZ tour which just wrapped up last week .. they are playing once or twice at a venue called the Greek Theater which is in LA but my guess would be Europe in maybe August/September for late summer :)
Sorry but it's in November 16 here in Greece.Officially at www.nickcave.com/
Don't be sorry you were only 5 months out! Long time away but worth the wait :) have you seen the Skeleton Tree songs live from Hobart on CZcams? First time Nick ever sang these great songs live .. 4 complete songs captured very well from the audience on the floor near the front. I Need You, Girl In Amber, Magneto, Skeleton Tree.
My all-time favourite Seeds song xxx
Hello friend
iconic
I love this song! creative and I Love the dog on the dance floor as well. ❤
This video is so weird n catches the drug mood of the song so good. I honestly listened to the song for years without understanding what he ment with "pure white snow".
this song looks like the theme song of the movie cvalled "shinning"
that way "Under fifteen feet of pure white snow" has some meaning
@@EvreninEfendisi no it‘s just about Cocaine and Heroin, which Nick Cave did a lot of
Oh my god does he make you want to be buried under 15 ft of pure white snow
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds at their best pristine musically and lyrically
Haunting...love this guy's lyrics
15 feet of pure white genius!
Ник Кэйв просто бог музыки
I regret not finding out about Nick sooner, I had this song on reapeat all day, it's stuck in my head.
I hate myself for not discovering this earlier. What the fuck have I been listening to?
I can't get tired of it! Raise your hands!
Nick Cave and Jarvis Cocker on the same video: Your definitions of cool have been updated
Oh, my Lord!
This is just incredible :D
One of the best music spot i've ever seen. I like it. A lot.
Love you Nick,"15ft of pure white snow",they were the days.
Hello!!! How are you doing today! Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you're a fan... Stay Safe!
Adore this song and clip. Unique is not so easy but here it is. So much great music from these talented artists. Why did I only discover it a few years ago. All that time lost but it is such a wonderful gift for an old Sheila like me. 💜

we'll all be learning that dance in time for the xmas party
I just love how he sways his shoulders.
Million Feet of Pure Brilliant Nick Cave..............
I wiped this song from my iPod because i ended up dancing in the street and supermarkets or where ever i was when i heard it. it just made me look more insane then i allready am.
u r so cool
ars!
Me paso lo mismo, soy de buenos aires, argentina...imaginate cuando hice oir a la gente el tema...me dijeron "you are crazy"....
Idem

I remember watching this many years ago on Rage. Still a masterpiece.
One of my favorite musics of all time.
They had real fun making this video. Nick Cave is the king.
best thing I've seen Jason Donovan in!!
haha i thought it was him!!
jeez... its a proper star spangled video !! Not sure who half of em are though ?!?
Marylyn Ward i spied jarvis cocker in there too! i think...
Rimarrà sempre uno dei più grandi interpreti di sempre underground blues rock
Jason Donovan off his noggin and the greyhound dog just not giving a crap about the sophisticated dancing make it the best video ever
Any music vid with a whippet in is a must watch
Loving this, the video, the sound, the everything. Piano has a tinge of Tubular Bells...
I always thought this song was about depression, but it works remarkably well as a Lockdown anthem. In a certain mood.
Cocaine
I was just thinking about how daily life becomes so mundane one starts to lose it.
I think it's about doing a lot of blow.
Fifteen feet of the pure decadence. Absolutely fuckin fantastic.
I wish I wasn't late, to the Nick Cave show. Discovered him only about 18 months ago.
