The night that made all better

All I need is music and intensity. Nick Cave’s concert was an exorcism of all my broken parts. I left the concert renewed. When singing without voice ‘the weeping song’, he nods at my expressions. We have an emotional moment when at the chorus, he holds my hand strongly, like telling me it will all be ok. In the encore, he invites people to come to stage. I run crazily, I need to get closer to god. There, I can see how he owes the stage even greater than I thought. From up there, I see I am not the only one being exorcised today, but thousands in the crowd. The intensity of his words and the way he sings is enough to touch even the coldest of hearts. ‘Wake up’, he tells with his screams and intense eye contact to the front row. We are here to feel, to connect tonight. We are all one joining a new religion. Nick Cave is the god.
