Blow Wind Blow - Tom Waits Cover (waitswatcher/DardisMusic)

[TIMOTHYSAARINEN]

Wow! Fucking excellent rendition. Love it!

[blavisha]

Tom is normally setting way too high standards for almost anyone trying to do his songs , but you are clearly not in that bunch . Keep on doing good job man. =)

[slippyking07]

Superb effect on the vocals

[Postscript624]

A fantastic song choice and an amazing. Done to perfection. Love it.

[GonzoPheen1984]

fuckin eh boys

keep em coming

[wishvoll]

It makes me sad and happy.everytime.

[dramawench579]

Oh Mr. Dardis... your songs never fail to put me in a better mood. You are truly an artist. Can we expect any more sometime?

[DardisMusic]

I am playing a Waits set tonight in Fürth - maybe that will proffer inspiration.

[colgatesmile123]

TIt is freakin har to cover waits' music. But this is really beautiful.

[karl198]

Hey, can i just say you've done a rly nice job with this song :D I love the simple arrangement and weird EQing on the vocals! Your voice is really nice.

[DonJuandeColfax]

I'm sort of an old guy and don't know much about music but I stumbled on this and it is really something. Is this a famous singer or group? I was trying to find Blow Wind Blow by Muddy Waters.

[karl198]

No this isn't anyone famous. This is just a couple of people from youtube doing a cover of a song by Tom Waits :) They really should be famous though.

[sethdesade]

this is a cover of Tom waits

[kafians]

waitswatcher...

always good work...

the sad tone i love..in every song of yours...

keep the tone..

[CineRecon]

Dude, good shit. I like the mono-sounding vocal. Like a 1920's radio. You got a sweet style.

[wishvoll]

Welch großartige Stimme.I love that stuff.Kann man das kaufen/bestellen?

[olynthos1]

Very honest and authentic performance. Well done my friend.

[bukovoima]

You have very beautiful voice. I'd even say the kind that makes justice to Waits' art.

[EvedeH]

I'd pay for this, are you releasing it?

Beautiful

[catminima]

Great music and video!

5*****

[SareTheFish]

Do you have cds? Seriously

I'd pay to own that

[leylee3]

Man this awsome, well done, I have just come across your work. fantastic, music to my ears. this is what's all about

[GaryGarrett]

vERY nICE... WELL DONE!

[rhysmacalpine]

its perfect.. i cant argue against it.. but it doesnt bring anything new to the track so id just rather listen to the original... dude its great work... thats just my constuctive criticism.. but who the fuck am i?

[DamianNixon]

Hi boy! Great stuff. Loved this production guy. Damian. Keep it live.

[mariadelamor21]

!Guau....!

[DardisMusic]

!!!!

[spotswoodthenewt]

Oh, most sublime...5*****'s!

[DardisMusic]

This comment makes me happy man - much appreciated!

[spotswoodthenewt]

Oh man, it's killer, AND it's a very original interpretation. No...you have it. Stay happy!

[medicinesocks]

intensely beautiful. what a collab!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks again! Mostly waitswatcher's work - I merely put icing on cake!

[RoPooh]

what a cake and what an icing :)

[DardisMusic]

Thanks a lot - happy you enjoyed your slice! waitswatcher has recently been in touch so a second collab. may well hit our screens very soon. Fingers crossed.

And thanks for watching.

[duncanlath]

Your finest video yet, you should work together again

[DardisMusic]

There do be plans afoot young man. Incidentally, between you and me, I had a technicoloured yawn after our last Stammtisch - must have been something in those chips (or in the beers Steve & I drank in 'Pils Bar Alex' after).

[Novobloom]

I really like that Lo-Fi sound of the vocals here...

[DardisMusic]

Thanks! Really just seemed the right thing to do!

[david201]

Brilliant video/playing/singing

[DardisMusic]

Thanks a lot!

[FlyingHorseKnuckles]

What a great video! You really captured Tom's vibe here. Great performance, acting & editing. Loved it. ~Jon

[DardisMusic]

waitswatcher really deserves most of this credit I think. He set the atmosphere and all I did was open my mouth and let what Tom had taught me come pouring out. And then ww put it all together and I sat there smiling, accepting too much credit.

Thanks for watching and for the comment!

[junglewarrrior]

your vocals compliment tom waits' style very well man, did you use a megaphone too? hehe

[DardisMusic]

Great idea! I'm sure my neighbours would love that - LOL.

[ydlorphans]

excellent

[DardisMusic]

Thanks a lot for checking it out and for commenting!

[godkat]

AMAZING!I loved how you were "blown away" at the end. Favorite*!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks a lot! Blown away - the story of my life! Thanks for watching!

[rljames54]

This song reminds me of my younger days,I really enjoyed it! Loved the scenery, My good friend Antonio sent me the link,I am so glad he did!

[DardisMusic]

That's yeeeeeeet another beer I owe Antonio!

Thanks a lot for watching & commenting! Really appreciated!

[DardisMusic]

I will ask WW - I agree though, he put a wonderful picture to the music!

[VickieBurns2]

Absolutely Beautiful!! 5 stars, favorited, and added to my Tom Waits playlist.

[DardisMusic]

Now I am a happy boy! Thanks a lot a lot a lot for watching! Really appreciate your taking the time!

[p0nette]

wow i'm speechless! wonderful sounding vocals, AWESOME music!! and the video is so cool too! i totally agree that it deserves to get featured!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks a lot! Much appreciated!

[tanDlegen]

Wow man! Really great work. Love your performance! And great video too. Keep em coming! :-)

[DardisMusic]

Thanks doctor! I think you know how much Pascal contributed to this work. Thanks for your support!

[prboyd]

Kevin. You have no idea how much I enjoyed this for 2nd time at 2am in the morning. Bloody hell mate.! Be proud of that fella. :)

[DardisMusic]

I hope you had all your clothes on ;o)

But seriously, thanks a lot for your encouragement.

[prboyd]

Lol! :) Nae bother mate

[MightyTiny]

This just has criminally few views. :(

I sent in a feature request to the editors at YouTube (editor AT youtube DOT com), and I hope they'll bite; this is such a brilliant collaboration that it would deserve to be seen by more eyes, and heard by more ears!

[DardisMusic]

I really don't know what to say my friend. This video is getting more views than most of my uploads, to be honest. Thanks for the support though - really gives me the feeling that I'm doing something right!

[LeopardJoy]

Insanely beautiful!!! Had to sub and FAVE. I found you on SilentDilemma's page. I am constantly AMAZED by the incredible talent on here! 5stars

Cheers,

Joy

[DardisMusic]

That's another beer I owe Steve then! Thanks for watching and for the nice comments!

[SilentDilemma]

wow wow wow wow

Guys this is sensational! I ask for, nay, demand, more waltswatcher/DardisMusic collorations!

And the video is awesome too - very very cool. 5* and instant favourite, of course, but will also feature this one.

Again, I say... wow.

[DardisMusic]

I have no idea what to say in reply to that Steve. Maybe 'wow' would be appropriate. Thanks for your support.

[ib2fast]

Nice!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks!

[RonanG]

Excellent song and great video Kevin. Thanks SEATTLEGRL for sending this.

Ronan

[DardisMusic]

[redflags123]

Great blues. Long Live DardisMusic! ¡Que Viva Waitswatcher!

[DardisMusic]

Wonderful comment! Thanks!

[ghanlon]

Loved the video as always, it's one of the best. The music is also very well done. a great collaboration

[DardisMusic]

Thanks George! The video was almost all waitwatcher's work. He deserves most of the credit for the success of this collab. Thanks for watching!

[waitswatcher]

I confess ... I just rated 5*, haha! :-)

Thanks again, Kevin, for singing on my track, I really, really love it!

Collabs rule! They bring out the best out of us!

Thanks for the little jewel.

[DardisMusic]

:o)

[AlbertMondback]

Your best cover so far. And plain great.

[DardisMusic]

I agree with the first comment for sure. Mostly waitswatchers work - I just put some icing on the cake.

[nezoone]

chills!

wonderful accompaniment ....!!!

i dont know about the vocals though... ♥

[DardisMusic]

Maybe I need to find another singer ;o)

[redflags123]

Kev looks like Tom Joad. This song brought tears to my eyes as I recalled the final scene in Steinbeck's novel.

[DardisMusic]

Tom Joad - that's another name for my list :o)

Thanks for watching!

[ACU5TIC]

Love the retro style vocals,really well matched to the music and vid,excellent.

[DardisMusic]

Thanks my friend - once again, that was waitswatcher's production skills!

[bunkomen]

Kevin this video is a beauty, great voice's sound and the accompaniment by waitswatcher is wonderful...

I love it ! Thank you my friend...

Thomas

[DardisMusic]

Thanks so much Thomas!

[Colfish500]

This is grrrrrrrrrreat! Really, really! I am so happy I already subscribe to waitswatcher - I have the perfect excuse to watch and listen to this all over again!

[psychomessiahs]

Wonderful, thank you Kevin.

[DardisMusic]

Something more romantic for you the next time maybe. I hope you're well!

[psychomessiahs]

hehe.. I dont think I am ;)

[MightyTiny]

Already favorited on WW's channel, great cover!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks for watching again!

[bear9253]

Just when I think you can't surprise me, well, you surprise me. Outstanding collaberation. One of the best videos I have seen. Happy St. Patrick's Day. (He hoists a beer and smiles :)

[DardisMusic]

It's only 11am as I write but I hoist my (imaginary) beer in reply bear! Thanks for the continued support!

[rcalliec]

oh kevin, you've outdone yourself...this is a delicious feast!

[DardisMusic]

Yum yum! Thanks Callie!

[bentonio07]

Wooow, this is absolutely stunning - really pro

Love the atmosphere of both the music and the video!

Hey, how come you're not in the pub ;-)

Happy St Patrick's Day!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Antonio. I was playing in Katzwang last night but ... naja, maybe better so.

Again, see you on Sunday!

[bentonio07]

Scheiße, am So war ich nicht in Nbg und jetzt schon wieder verpasst

Please tell me next time!

[DardisMusic]

It was only an hour and I couldn't really stay after the show so you didn't miss that much! There'll be chances enough in the future, believe me! And your kind self ... ?

[bentonio07]

Well ...

btw I'm back home, how about a spontaneous beer or whatever tonight or tomorrow sometime. I'll be in Nbg tomorrow evening, for example

[DardisMusic]

I am in The Irish Castle tonight. Will not be fun though - I am doing covers ('Yessir, I can Boogie', that kind of thing).

[SEATTLEGRL1]

Yes, this is fantastic and look at the honors, so Hollywood 1930-ish! You are very versatile!

[DardisMusic]

The great thing about YouTube is the sparks that other people offer one! The video and music production were all done by waitswatcher!

Thanks for watching (again!) :o)

[SEATTLEGRL1]

Acrually, more Harlem-ish, 20's or 30's, on second thought.

[Tilly220]

Yeah thats me blown away too-I'm lost for words actually- That was just too good!

[DardisMusic]

:o)

[47XXYs]

Love it kevin. 5*****

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Justin!

[schabitu]

GENIAL.

[DardisMusic]

Danke!

[prboyd]

Hats off. That was TOP quality. If that came on MTV I wouldn't switch over or notice anything "amateur". Honestly Kevin. One of the best vids I have seen up here. Instant Fav. 5**** Dr B

[DardisMusic]

I have just saved this comment for when I'm an old man to show .... someone!

Thanks a lot! Great great comment!

[Premedia]

Go, man, go! Stupendous. Totally superb production. A YouTube Classic.

[DardisMusic]

I hoped you would like it Luis - waitswatcher is really a wonderful musician!

[LeeshaHarvey]

Wow, this is amazing! Fantastic cover and very cool video to go with it! *****

Also, Happy St. Patrick's Day! Enjoy a good beer (or 2... or 3... or...) in honor of the day! ;-)

[DardisMusic]

I drank (only) 2 beers last night! I was on stage and that's the limit I set myself on such occasions!

Thanks for watching Leesha - your comments are always appreciated!

[WizKil]

Very nice video and great job on the song. 5*****

Is it safe to do cover here on the Tube?

[DardisMusic]

If you acknowledge the person who wrote the song, you should be okay. When you (in some way) claim that the song is yours, you'll soon find yourself in deep water.

[hhartely35]

This blew me away. Very cool collab !!

[DardisMusic]

Thanks Joern. First as always!
