Unbenownst to me for the longest time, Nick Cave's 'O Children' seems to have been picked up on some unlikely radars after it - apparently? - was included in one of the Harry Potter movies. Hasn't been covered though, to my knowledge.

For a while there fifteen or twenty years ago, every man and their dog was covering 'Under the Milky Way' by The Church, but that seems to have died down with the passing of the generations and the turning of the wheel.

As I say, if I'm wrong I'm wrong. It doesn't greatly exercise me.

No, Simon wrote the song. The only connection Jagger has to it, is that he may have sung some uncredited backup vocals, and that she very vocally stated the song was not about him when a journalist once asked her.

Yes, although I can't remember which one. Harry and Hermoine dance in a tent to it, and it was quite effective.

Ah damnit, that's right. Backing vocals. Yeah, I knew he was involved somehow.

I must admit I have never watched the Harry Potter films and so it was disconcerting seeing a bunch of people on Youtube commenting on the song pretty much exclusively from within that frame.

Not a lot of Al Green in country Australia either. Not then, not now.

It was Deathly Hallows, Part I.

I'm not a Harry Potter fan (never read the books, only cared for a few of the films), but that was a really memorable scene.

Well... to be very nitpicky...
(But OK, it was apparently once on the Vertigo Tour, so it certainly is in for a resurrection)

If you don't visit the other forum, someone pointed out that Edge's wife posted a pic of a cat on Instagram and in the background "Love Is All We Have Left" is playing:

The cat is easily the best part of that clip.

I'm *really* behind. Is there anything going on at all? Like 3 weeks ago I saw someone on Facebook post that they were about to go on tour and tickets were going on sale soon....
