Songs related to Nick Cave
May 1979 Roadrunner has a live gig review of La Femme which says one of
their songs, 'The Boys Next Door', is "a cutting, leering attack on the
subject band. So cutting in fact that I have seen members of the BND
leave a party as La Femme launched into the song." The August 1979
Roadrunner had a letter from La Femme's manager denying that the song
was about the band "and in actual fact, the song's lyrics are concerned
with prostitution. I am aware that friction did exist between the two
bands but this remained on more of a jovial level and did revolve
around the said song", but the editor adds that "in private conversation
with the BND. THEY WERE CERTAINLY under the impression that it was
(about them)." Anyone know anything more about this?
