Tupelo (song)
"Tupelo" is the second single by Australian post-punk band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and the only single from the band's second album ''The Firstborn Is Dead''.
==Background and production==
The song was written by Barry Adamson, Nick Cave and Mick Harvey in mid-late 1984. Using biblical imagery, the song describes the birth of Elvis Presley during a heavy storm in Tupelo, Mississippi.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds :: Firstborn Is Dead )〕 The song is loosely based on the John Lee Hooker song of the same title, which also focuses on a flood in the same town. The "looky looky yonder" motif that is featured in the song is derived from a song of the same name recorded by Lead Belly, usually found as part of a medley which Cave himself covered under the title "Black Betty" on Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' third album, ''Kicking Against the Pricks''.
"Tupelo"'s b-side, "The Six Strings That Drew Blood", was recorded in March 1985 at Trident Studios in London and was a re-recording of a song Cave originally recorded with The Birthday Party during the ''Mutiny'' EP sessions in 1982. The original version of the song is included on The Birthday Party's ''Mutiny/The Bad Seed'' compilation album. "Tupelo" was released on 29 July 1985.
