There is also &#8220;New Day&#8221;, a sort of Nick Cave style gospel number. It&#8217;s another great one. Nick Cave is my girl&#8217;s favorite music artist of all time. It&#8217;s probable that we have more records by Nick Cave than any other artist, and if you include The Boys Next Door and Birthday Party it is a certainty.<\/p>\n<p>And speaking of birthday parties, today is Mary&#8217;s birthday. So, today&#8217;s artist has to be Nick Cave. Like Nick, Mary marches to her own beat. It&#8217;s just one of many reasons I&#8217;m in love with her.
