Jesus Nick. “If I did not talk about it, I would turn inward on myself. I would harden.” All these years of therapy trying to understand why nothing phases me. Wondering why I can’t cry. Why I’m “dead inside”. All these years being told by one therapist to another that “I had to harden, so I could do my job. (EMS and the hospital trauma team) Years of feeling soulless. Years of feeling hollow. Years of feeling like a monster. Not a single shrink or medical doc could help me w the emptiness.,Then here comes Nick. Within 20 seconds has made me understand why I feel like I do. Within 20 seconds allowed me to feel like a human being again. And within 20 seconds has allowed me to cry again. Bless you Nick. I hope you know just how much you mean to your fans. You are not only brilliant in the creative sense. Your words off stage have undoubtedly rescued many people’s soul. Bless you.,

Ive met very few people who know of the raw talent that is nick cave. But those who have, love you dearly sir. Cant imagine what that kind of pain would be like. Thank you for surviving it. Idk if id be able to.

Nick is such a beautiful soul.

im only 14 and nick caves music has been a big impact on my life, my favourite song of all time is into my arms and ive loved that song since before i can remember so seeing this bought tears to my eyes i love nick ❤

I'm so sorry for your loss. I myself have lost 2 children so I know your pain.🌹

We keep our candles burning, Nick. Be at peace!

So sad that he lost 2 of his sons 😢

You can see a ton of pain in those eyes. God bless him.❤

He is a poet of pain and a superhero! His eyes, his eyes!!!

A real unrehearsed and reachable soul is so present in him - I love that so much about this man. Neither of us can articulate what he manages to render with his art, but we meet each other so clearly in perfect ways that transcend words. I sense the immensity of pressure he feels, in rendering that. But he navigates it like an artisan. He is a tremendous human being, and I love him. And I hope he sees this, and knows he is truly loved.

I played into my arms on my drive to my baby sisters funeral .. it's so beautiful.. it makes me cry every time I hear it.. she was only 36yrs.. I hate cancer.. 😭

Nick cave got me through life as a teen. I'm 44 now and I'm forever thankful for his music. I'm so sorry for his loss but he is so inspiring about how to move forward in life but never forgetting. Talking is so important. Thank you Mr Cave.

This man means SO MUCH to so many people, for so many things.. We keep our candles burning..

I truly love this man. What a gift he is to us all, even when he carries such pain ❤

My girl died at 35. It’s a struggle but I’m doing it. Had she died as a teenager, it would have killed me. I don’t think I would have stayed here.

there is nothing more tragic than when a parent has to bury their child, of any age. you have an incredible voice, Nick. Thank you for sharing your talent 💕

Very intelligent man 👍

Just a lowly American southerner here… you are an artist sir!! Here we think a man can’t tell a story in song unless he’s lost something, my friend you tell a thousand stories thank you

Love him. Been reading his Red Hand Files newsletters for years now. His words have gotten through some hard times 🖤

Can't hold myself not to cry

Life can be so very cruel. Due to where my life is, and at 55 with a 9yo, if he died, I would kill myself. He is my hope. I am thankful for people like Nick Cave.

I owe so much to this man and his art, and I'm so thankful for him surviving and living through this terrible loss. His music has helped me save myself in many ways, it helped me find beauty in the darkest of days

Please know how much all of us felt your loss. When I lost my husband, I knew my grief wasn't normal. He had a mental illness that I've only come to understand after the fact & everything was so wrapped up in it before he died, I was numb. Your music saved me & continues to save me again & again. Thank you & God bless you and your family.

Great that he can articulate this. A genius on so many levels, but a human still…..

An amazing person and singer. I'm sorry

I lost my only son, only child, when he was just 4 years old. Because I am not a celebrity, nobody wants to talk about it any more. Hearing Nick talk about his experience is cathartic and oddly comforting. He is exactly right, I changed completely 😮😮❤❤

The pizza scene in his film just kill’s me now. Him so happy with his baby boys.

Soon after the death of his son, I saw Nick at Ebbsfleet train station in the UK checking in with his manager. I walked up to him and thanked him for his beautiful music. 'Thanks, mate!" was his reply. :-D

I (fortunately) haven’t had too much drama in my life, but listening to Nick and Warren always brings tears to my eyes. Such powerful music with zero vocals.

Respect to Mr. Cave and his family X

We loves ya, Nick. I'll never forget being double booked at Metropolis studio with you for a few days, and we shared the studio and hung out. I have a tattoo on my ankle you doodled on me one night after a gig, which i treasure ❤

KING INK strolls into town... He sniffs around!! 1982...15 yo @ the Stage Door pub...still one of the best gigs lve been to!! You can never guess what life dishes up mate...lost a son mself, stay strong Nick!

I’m so very sorry about what happened to your sons. I wish you the very best to you, your wife and loved ones.

An unspeakable tragedy. It speaks volumes to his emotional intelligence and character that he was able to continue with his life in any form after what happened. A deeply principled and intelligent man, and a hugely gifted artist. We’re lucky to have him and I wish him the best in the face of the tragedies he’s had to deal with in his life.

I love you Nick..I lost my nephew just recently..he was like a son to me..your music keeps me from pulling the trigger

Great job moving THROUGH it. It’s the only way. God bless you ❤

I'm obsessed with this man's music since Peaky blinders, his music is my biggest inspiration for making my own music and art, and is played daily on my phone. It's heartbraking to hear him talk about that. I'm sending hugs to all of the parents who lost their children. May they rest in peace.

Poor nick ,let’s just hope he can one day recover,I’ve been through this experience and am still on edge with it

So sorry to hear about this Nick, can’t imagine the pain and grief you’ve went through, much love from Belfast, Northern Ireland ❤️👍

Heartbreaking

I had no idea, and ive been a fan for twenty or so years. I am feeling absolutely horrible about your loss.my condolences and sincere sympathy goes out to you and your family. Your are such an inspiration to me, and im sure millions more. It’s easy to relate to soulful sound and the real life grit in your music. We get to live in it because of your hard work and talent!! Thank you!

It crushes me that Nick is managing to work through this, because there is no way I could survive losing my only child. In such an unexpected, truly tragic way. Love, all the way. x

Thanx for sharing, Nick

There's nothing so sad as it..

For me as a person who speaks another language on a daily basis, the lyrics and Nick Cave puts in his songs makes English at its utmost of the dependence of this language

So heartbreaking.

I just cannot imagine. Nick Cave is such an amazing human being and artist. I have so much admiration and respect for him.

Heart breaking

He is so talented

I’m dealing with loss of my Son Taylor the same way I understand how you feel Nick Cave Thinking of you We don’t get over it but we do get better

How much these words resonate with me ❤

It sounds like he dealt with his pain in a very healthy way. I really feel for him because of course that is every parent's worst nightmare.

What an amazing human and artist..🙏🙌

Heart breaking.

Nick is a wonderful human being!

Into my arms, O Lord, into my arms

God bless him....❤❤❤

Big hugs, as I can not imagine! I understand his truth!

Gripping - I share a number of curious facts with Nick including our birth dates, father deaths, twin fatherhoods, and twin son names, all random coincidences. We nearly lost our son our son Aaron at birth, and since Nick and Susie’s loss of Arthur I keep close watch over our son Aaron more than ever. I cannot explain the parallels.

All the love to you Nick. I can't imagine that loss. Thank you for all you've done for me in dark times

We love you, and thank you sharing your journey and your heart with us ❤️

This is life Nick, you're not alone

Im so sorry

One great Man . great great Man.

You are courageous Mr. Cave, I admire Your attitude, 🎉❤🎉

I can't imagine that kind of loss.

I have a 14 yr old and I cant imagine being able to carry on after that.

Love you so Mister Nick Cave ❤

You've gotta just keep on pushing. Keep on pushing. Push the sky away ❤️

All the feels ❤ for you, and your families

Amazing how much he looks like my past love..also named Nick .sorry that Nick Cave lived a tragic personal life.😢❤

💔

Even his answer on that heartbreaking topic reveals the melody of a melancholic song.

God bless you Nick

How sad, Nick is much loved by music fans all over the world, and nobody should have to bury their child.

No parent should have to bury their child - Theoden

I lost my 5yr old to a drunk driver.. we were walking on the sidewalk and a drunk driver jumped the curb and ran us over.. it killed Jayden instantly... I cannot even BEGIN to describe the pain... the emptiness you deal with every moment of everyday....

que fuerte

So brave,but true

❤️

Lord rest his soul 🙏

And that's why Arthur Shelby is called Arthur in Peaky Blinders.

Well done Nick
