This song cannot be covered; it is so unique so emtional that it's essence cannot be captured. Tom wrote certain songs that he didn't want to be interpreted; this is one of them. Nice try x
Seems like this guys was just walking along the road hitchhiking. No cars were passing by, so he stops, gets out his guitar, sits downs and plays "Anywhere I Lay my Head".
Wow, kid, you spring coils from my forearms... Keep hittin those notes as they come upon the tail end of RAIN DOGS...good night genius...send us another gem tomorrow...
dude ive never heard the song but ill pay my respects i like it man n dont worry man all musicans get there haters believe me you think everyone loves g love or jack johnson they probably have more haters then we do but thats just cause there more known:)
Decent job. I was surprised. You have potential. Forget the haters and flamers - they comment as they do because they have neither the stones or skills to try anything. When they do see someone take on such an ICONIC legend's tune and do a decent job of it, the more angry they get. Stay the course. HOOYAH!
That was an amazing cover, I loved it and respect for the vocal, no-one can do Tom Waits like Tom Waits and that sounded totally original yet just as good
You, however, have a feel for the words you're singing and actual vocal talent. You can sing like I wish I could and you feel like some people with the most pitch-perfect, technically sound sounds just don't have.
Fucking great, dude. Don't listen to anybody who tells you how any song has to be sung. Trying a suggestion can't hurt(well, maybe your throat, if you try to be some kind of Tom impersonator), but Plumpy only touched on what I hear: you're not restraining shit, you're focusing it with a beautiful voice. "It" being soul. Your voice isn't "soulful," you have soul. That's what I get, anyway. We all love Tom Waits for how much passion he puts into his music, but the man don't sound pretty too often.
Mate. I got a lot of respect for you dude. I can totally relate to it. Tom Waits is fantastic. Really like the harmonica at the end. My bro and i are massive Tom Waits fan's and do covers of his tunes all the time. Its an excellent cover man. You should post some more on here. Great choice, nice one.
Like we say in french, Grab your balls with your two hands man! Come on, you are alone in the desert you gotta shout this song, SHOUT IT!! dammit, looks like you are restraining yourself when you should just let it go. But i liked it, you got potential. Thumbs up.
