Quite a few people suggested Dave Grohl, and one David Keenan also got a mention. But the answer to our second Movember 'Guess The Musical Mo!' is Nick Cave – who was described as the “best songwriter alive” in the current issue of Hot Press by the also-very-great Matt Berninger of The National. “And I know Bob Dylan is alive,” Matt added.

Ah, but did Bob ever have a proper moustache? In that difference, perhaps, lies the secret of Nick’s mo-mentous elevation to No.1...

The cover in question is from 2008 – when Nick Cave spoke to Hot Press's Peter Murphy about his latest album, Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!

Congrats to all who got it. We're playing again tomorrow! In the meantime, Grow A Mo, Save A Bro! Sign up at Movember.com
