Where the Wild Roses Grow
Perhaps the most beautiful music video ever produced. The song Where the Wild Rose Grow is an alt-rock song from writer Nick Cave who had fellow Australian Kylie Minogue singing on the track and appearing in the video. In the video, Minogue is playing Elisa Day who is admired by Nck’s character who then murders her. The general idea is that he wants to preserve her beauty rather than see it fade as she ages. After giving her a rose and asking if she wanted to see where the flower came from, he takes her to the river, kills her with a rock and then places here in the river, where the wild roses grow, in the pose of Millais’ painting Ophelia.
