Es ist einfach inspirierend, zu sehen, dass so viele Musiker im fortgeschrittenen Alter noch in Studios gehen und Tourneen absolvieren. Sogar bis zu ihrem Tod, wie Lou Reed oder Leonard Cohen. Der war umwerfend bei seinen letzten Konzerten. So etwas bewundere ich. Das sagte Nick Cave 2017 über Leonard Cohen im Rahmen eines Interviews in DIE ZEIT anlässlich der Box, die Caves Werk von 1984-2004 umspannt. http://www.zeit.de/zeit-magazin/2017/19/nick-cave-musiker-interview/seite-3

„Die Welt trauert um den großen Leonard Cohen. „Nach Beileidsbekundungen von etwa Arcade Fire, Moby und John Cale hat sich nun auch Nick Cave zum Tod des Musikers und Autoren geäußert“, hiess es im ROLLING STONE nach dem Tod von Leonard Cohen am 6. November 2016. (https://www.rollingstone.de/nick-cave-leonard-cohen-war-der-groesste-von-allen-1154857/)

“Für viele von uns”, schrieb Cave damals auf Facebook, “war Leonard Cohen der größte Songwriter von allen. “Absolut einzigartig und unmöglich nachzuahmen, egal, wie sehr wir es auch versuchten. Er wird sehr vermisst werden, von so vielen.”

“For many of us Leonard Cohen was the greatest songwriter of them all,” said Cave. “Utterly unique and impossible to imitate no matter how hard we tried. He will be deeply missed by so many.”

 

1994 sagte Cave in einen Interview mit dem französischen Musikmagazin LES INROCKUPTIBLES: “I discovered Leonard Cohen with ‘Songs of Love and Hate’. I listened to this record for hours in a friend’s house. I was very young and I believe this was the first record that really had an effect on me. In the past, I only listened to my brother’s records. I liked what he liked, followed him like a sheep. Leonard Cohen was the first one I discovered by myself. He is the symbol of my musical independence. I remember these other guys that came to my friend’s house that thought Songs of Love and Hate was too depressing. I’ve realized that this ‘depression’ theory was ridiculous.

“The sadness of Cohen was inspirer, it gave me a lot of energy. I always remember all this when someone says that my records are morbid or depressing.”

Aber auch Cohen äußerte sich begeistert über Nick Cave, als er dessen Version von „Tower Of Song“ auf dem 1992 erschienenen Tribut-Album „I`m Your Fan“ publizierte:

„There have probably been some who have butchered it, but I’ve generally liked the job that people have done with it. I guess you could say Nick Cave butchered my song, ‘Avalanche,’ and if that’s the case, let there be more butchers like that.“
