[intersanctum]

20 people think that they can do it better but i don't see any of that videos

[candided]

[waitswatcher]

[konfoes]

@mrzeegrr U CAN TNK EATCH OTHER TILL KINGDOM COMES.....ME I AM CRYING.....THIS IS SO SO SO AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL..HOPE TO LISTEN TO THIS WHEN I AM GOING...;-)

[TomasKoerse]

Whenever I hear this song i see an old man on a guitar playing it as he has left home (or life) and knows no-one misses him. Even if you wouldn't know the title it just makes you feel like that man. how the hell does Waits do that?!

[Auralas]

congratulations, you just made me weep like a little school girl, i hope youre happy

[waitswatcher]

@Auralas aw, I'm sorry ...here, have a hug ... ww

[ScarlettRedTea]

This is so amazing. I love this song, I also love Scarletts cover (don´t blame me for that, it´s just my opinion) and you did it so great. I cold hear to that song all day, also to this acoustic cover.

[waitswatcher]

@ScarlettRedTea

thanks! :-)

[TheFuriousOrlando]

Nice nice :)

[italllies]

beautiful man, hey you should look up " seeso " on here. and do a collaboration.

again simply wonderful.

[FabMike]

you got the best nickname ever:D

and nice video, by the way;)

[RippoTheWane]

what about the violin,man?

is that you playing it too??

anyway, very very well done, very deep n felt,

i thank you

[waitswatcher]

there's no violin in there ... its a bowed ukulele!

or two, to be honest ... ;-)

thanks, ww

[RippoTheWane]

REALLY???

woah i thought it was an uku and a violin...

there's a sound that seemed to me like a reverb caused my something played with an ark...

:)

i was completely wrong,so.

[RippoTheWane]

oh wait a bow is what i call an ark

so i wasn't completely far...

listening again, i didn't know a bowed uku could have this sound, it really seems again to me it's a violin. :)

eheh thanks for letting me know this, and thanks again for posting this wonderful job!

[waitswatcher]

yes, that uke has a low g string, kind of a bass string, and therefore it can be easily play with a bow. all violin sounds are produced on that single string.

I think the term ark is more for buildings, while bow is used in violin context.

its the same word for both in geerman, by the way ... ;-)

[crozdwirez]

can someone make this man a saint please

[waitswatcher]

huh?!

:-D

[ansonalma]

@crozdwirez  he already IS a saint. the saint of song.

[musicalarab]

nice! well done.

[TheQuantummm]

marvellous

[sarrasta85]

beautiful

[SgtBastard101]

Its called drunk text grammer, I beluve. Burp.

[karl198]

You know i originally saw this video and it took me a moment to realise the moon moving across the sky was in fact the moon. At first glance it looked like a hole in a thick black cloth with light on the other side coming from somewhere else. I really like that idea though..

[waitswatcher]

yes, nice image ... thanks, ww

[nulirahak]

hehhhehe same :)

[stmadman77]

phonemonkey3 that made me laugh (someone should look into that) good point

[waitswatcher]

hehe ... yes ... :-)

[Metzendorf]

Tatsächlich ein gelungenes Cover, sehr schön!

[waitswatcher]

danke Dir!

[Meekseek]

it make me cry this beautiful song.. i<3 thanks

fools need to cry ;)

[chaia84]

Wow, very nice!

[gaasKSA]

it is a fact every body gonna die

NO DOUBT

i wish a good life for everyone ^_^

GooD LucK

[VEGA747]

Its not a Fact. Not Proven!

[briemkiki827]

No, it's proven! There is a 98% chance you will die at some point in your life.

[pubelion]

well its a fact youll either die, or get to 100, and have a 100 percent chance of die within the next 100 years.

[stoked87]

Logically, it is impossible to prove that everyone dies. To prove beyond all doubt, everyone would have to be shown to have died, but who'd be left to record the fact?

[briemkiki827]

Exactly, so even though the accepted theory is that everyone dies, who is to say that someone while end up not dying and become that 2% previously mentioned. You cannot, with certainty, deny this, even though most people will die. There is usually an element of uncertainty is almost everything.

[stoked87]

Maybe if your grammar wasn't so terrible, I'd laugh at your joke instead of at you.

It isn't 'your' it's 'you're'.

[rswoods7]

Grammatical errors speak for themselves. We all know when someone screws up the English language, it is unnecessary to call attention to it.

[stoked87]

There's a comma splice at the end of your sentence; I just thought I'd call attention to it.

[rswoods7]

Why I oughtta... ;)

[HighPisi]

and the other 2%??

[TheVioletSounds]

I once eat a pickle, but guys... tom waits....

[phonemonkey3]

People always seem to die at the end of their lives. Someone should look into that.

[gribae]

@phonemonkey3 Who would want to live forever anyway?

[zhiopm]

Sehr schön, sehr schön.

Grüße nach Aachen :)

[necroptic]

You are the man.

[srvinfinity]

Nice touch with the cello! Sweet!

[FaiSchlechterWolf]

Oh wow. This is just gorgeous.
