Mick Harvey interview

"Honestly, we'd play the Weeping Song, and it's disrespectful to the audience in my opinion. To play that kinda *shit* to them, they deserve better than that, the band deserves better than that, to be given versions of stuff that's challenging and they have to work to make sound exciting...bashing through them like they're some stupid rock song, that's a death."

"A lot of people wondered if I had problems with other members of the band or if there's a problem with Warren, I can only say that in the end any problems with anyone else in the band don't really matter in the Bad Seeds, the only thing that could really make you not be able to continue playing in the Bad Seeds is if you weren't having a good time with Nick. And I wasn't having a good time with Nick. He was giving me a very hard time, was very unkind to me, and it got to a point where I didn't want to put up with it any more.

"Nick should've shown me a lot more respect than he did. I deserved a LOT more respect than I got from him in the last 18 months. It is surprising after everything that happened for 35 years that he would be so unkind to me. You'll have to ask him why that was."
