I turned Tom onto a line in the bathroom of a Chicago bar called the lighthouse. I'll never forget what he said to me...."Got any more".

you're welcome, Ung Kim & thank you for your thoughtful comment. I like the live performance videos because it is live art; he is not just a songwriter singing a song; it's not just the sounds he makes that tell his stories ... in some ways it's the hat that's more important :)

I got to know Tom Waits in the 80's, ever since then, there is not a day I don't listen to him one way or another... his drunkness seems always so comforting in this busy and stressful world, his voice alone sort of makes life a bit lighter and jolly...shit happens but expect that, that is normal in life... It is hard to explain but his singing style is a piece of art itself, isn't it? and this one, this live one is even better than the recorded one, so much beauty in it...thanks for this one

Tom is an awesome atmospheric story teller! I'm glad you like it too, Rick; storytellers like yourself make youtube what it is & hopefully remains, at least some corners of the youtubian galaxy :) xo's bdf

He's something isn't he? What a voice he has so unique very gritty and bluesy. Tom is awesome a singer and musician. Love the lonely late night cafe feeling just pouring out his emotions.. Haha can't get a sandwich but at least can got a nice suit. Nice one Shirley darling. Love you xoxo :))
