Top singles from the past

26 February 2026

In the late 90s NICK CAVE and PJ HARVEY were lovers. No wonder
Cave did a duet with her, on a song named HENRY LEE, backed by
The Bad Seeds, which featured on his 9th LP Murder Ballads. It
was released as a single 30 years ago, on 26 February 1996.

Henry Lee is Nick Cave‘s variant of a traditional folk
song named ‘Young Hunting‘, which has its origin in
Scotland.

It wasn’t a great commercial success, yet one of the standout tracks on that LP.
