I'm tempted to click the link, but at the same time I am very afraid of what lies therein. Thinking of the Snape analogy, I'm reminded of how I can never see the Harry Potter books in the same light after reading a particularly strange fanfic that my friend sent me... Lovely video, though! I can never get enough of Blixa Bargeld. The drawing is absolutely lovely, too... Oh dear God, is there actually Nixa slash fanfic?

I'm crazy about Nixa and I thought something's wrong with me, so it's nice to discover that a couple of people share my deviation ;) this is one of my favourite Nixa performances (along with The Weeping Song from Paradiso and british TV, and Roses from Midtfyns) *__* I LOVE: the way Blixa avoids looking into Nick's eyes; the way Blixa steals glances at Nick between 1:20 and 1:30; Blixa's smile when given a flower; how Blixa looks into Nick's eyes at "on the second day..." and Nick's smile; "on the zird day he took me to the river"; Nick looking at Blixa with sexy smile at 2:48; and much more. ...time to take my pills? first of all, I’m sorry for my english.

I LOVE:
the way Blixa avoids looking into Nick’s eyes;
the way Blixa steals glances at Nick between 1:20 and 1:30;
Blixa’s smile when given a flower;
how Blixa looks into Nick’s eyes at “on the second day…” and Nick’s smile;
“on the zird day he took me to the river”;
Nick looking at Blixa with sexy smile at 2:48;
and much more.

…time to take my pills?

I've read it several times since you published it. I'm of the opinion that Nick Cave and Blixa Bargeld were immediately and irrevocably infatuated - from the moment they were introduced by Gudrun Gut, backstage at a Birthday Party concert, at the Amsterdam Paradiso in June 1982. Within 3 months Nick moved himself and his band to Berlin. It was not long before Blixa replaced Rowland S. Howard and he and Nick co-founded Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. If I were to describe what I imagine happened, I'd say that Nick took Blixa as his musical paramour. If that rather intimate designation suggests that they were physical together, fine with me. They were young, beautiful, and perfectly suited to one another. Nick once called Blixa his 'Siamese twin of the soul'. In a recent video interview, Blixa said that in 1982 he and Nick would go to the recording studio alone in the middle of the night to 'kill time and possibly record something'. How impossibly sexy and wonderful to imagine them courting in a recording studio? Well, perhaps the scenario belongs in one of my fictions but how fabulous that so many enjoy the fantasy of their pairing! Thanks for letting me ramble. Do come and visit us at Nick Cave Fixes. There's a good bit of Blixa there, as well. http://nickcavefixes.wordpress.com/ Meanwhile, here's a clip I uploaded which shows the pair performing the same duet 2 years later. Very different interaction- more fun but just as hot.
