In some circumstances shyness never finds its harmonic agreement and the situation will never be in tune. It is the orchestra attempting to find its shared intent and is over all too quickly if you ask me.
It is a beautiful, fractured piece of music in itself. Shyness is the tentative sound of the orchestra tuning up before the symphony begins.
It’s a pretty meditation, and you can hear it below.Īnd here’s the whole text of Cave’s letter/spoken word piece: (This is not the first time a Red Hand File letter prompted new music - it also happened with “ Grief” earlier this year.) The fan questions were “What is shyness?” and “What was your first date with your wife like?” These things dovetail for Cave, with him first meditating on shyness, and how some things slip through life because of it, but how he and his wife meeting was one moment where he broke through that wall. It’s the text of a Red Hand Files letter set to music. “Shyness” is a new spoken word track Cave released today. Somehow, in the midst of all that, he also has time for small, powerful moments like “Shyness. He and Warren Ellis released the great Carnage, he was cast as a forest in a Shakespeare production, he announced he’d be teaming up with Andrew Dominik once more for a live Carnage and Ghosteen film, he began rolling out B-Sides And Rarities Part II, he announced a new memoir focusing on the years after his son’s death, and apparently he’s playing H.G. But he’s really been up to a lot this year. In recent years, Nick Cave has always been up to something or another, and has released music at a fairly prolific clip.
