  • great video. this has got to be my favorite song from blood money. thank you. a hundred times thank you.

  • this was the first song made my skin crawl for over 2 minutes.

  • effortlessly perfect...

  • MAGNÍFICO!

  • When people ask me my religion I tell them I'm a practicing Waitsian. Tom gives my spirituality a voice, a melody, a lyric.

  • How does Tom Waits know where Slenderman lives?

  • @calabroncody Slenderman fears Tom Waits like everyone else fears Slenderman 

  • did tim burton direct this or something?

  • This is The Art

  • What is tom waiting for?

  • @caediteeos1 Your mother?

    Mixed in with Desire

    Thank you Mr. Waits.

  • G'damn I love this song and video. Perfect.

  • blows my mind every time. I think that's why my mind keeps coming back. its like a musical hooker for the imagination and shes taking IOUS

  • eisai tromeri ,bravo !!!

  • pure magic... 

  • nightmare music. awesome.

  • who did this video?...i love it...

  • First time I heard this song it was in my car. I was driving somewhere at night, but I pulled over to listen to it again with my full attention. Then I hit replay on it about 55 times until I had every note & word memorized. Obsessed with this song.

  • leaves me wide eyed & speechless with wonder ~

  • this clip is so scary perfect....

  • simply marvelous

  • Awesome! :)

  • fantastic and moving. i love tom.

  • Perfect in every way.

  • this is some amazing animation. id like to know who did it too. thx 4 upload

  • Who did the art and animation for this video? Interesting.. Very "the Scream" Munch period evocative.

  • Tom Waits astounds me in that he has so many fantastic songs, and I keep stumbling upon more and more. This one, particularly, is beautiful. As is the video. I need to go buy Blood Money, now.

  • surreal. Amazing artwork , rich vocals!

  • He sounds like he's singing along with a music box after gargling with bleach and smoking 20 cartons of cigarettes. Absolutely beautiful. :) THIS is music, kiddos. Your Miley Cyrus crap will NEVER compare.

  • @MommyMightyMouse Turns out that's exactly what he did, twice a day for 56 years.

  • I wonder if the director of this video is influenced by the Brother Quay.

    Great Tom Waits song, great video...

  • What album is this from? I own "Closing Time", "Small Change" and "Frank's wild years" and they obviously aren't on there. Is it on one of his much later albums?

    Cheers,

    Baz

  • @KevBaz78 'Blood Money'

  • @Thirdeyeblinder Cheers man. Also like "Misery is the River of the World" from the same album, I think.

  • I am in a Portuguese saloon drinking johnnie walker, listen to Tom Waits on my phones, watching sailors picking up wash out prostitues and thinking at my girl

  • Woah. Getting Nightmare Ned flashbacks from the art in this video.

    I like that.

  • 'The kiss don't know what the lips will say' - I smile at the profound truth of this line every time.

  • Its songs like this that one day I hope wont need to be sung. I guess untill that day Im happy to hear something that is beautifully honest and raw.

    This seperates me from the bullshit even if for a couple of minutes.

  • Blood Money is the the only Tom Waits album i own and i bought it on the strength of 'Gods Away On Buisness' (which was the first song i heard by him) and ended up falling in love with all the songs on it. a great great album. thanks for sharing

  • @trje246 try Swordfishtrombones... it is a quiet similar album.

  • @derneueuntergang cheers mate, i'll check it out! i'm glad i got your reply to, gives me an excuse to hear this song again! hehe. thanks again, for that!

    Take it easy

  • @trje246 I recommend Rain Dogs, one of my favorite albums. But, really, if it's Tom, you can't go wrong. . .

  • Amazing song!!!

  • OMG I love his voice!

  • Thank you.

  • Bigger than life!

  • You can't get a voice more gorgeous.

  • so beuatiful, it tears my heart in pieces... where does the vid come from? can anybody supply credits? thx for posting.

  • The kiss don't know what the lips will say ............. wow

  • How many quotable lyrics can one song have in it? I swear every song I am just amazed by. "And a barman will always understand." is merely one.

    I saw Bob Dylan in concert and went home and put on Tom Waits full blast all night long.

  • @realiamarebus "time is just memory mixed with desire" is my favorite, but every line of this song is poetry. I could listen to it 100 times and pick up some new understanding. Unreal.

  • reminds me of pink floyd's "the wall"

  • In the age we live in, it is hard to separate profound from coverd shallownes, the moments when you are not avere of the force wich make your nerves forget so your eyes forget to blink, that is when you are the seperating link betwen the two, and that is when you found nature of a given art. Absolutley breathtaking.

  • @markobegus One of the best comments I've ever read on youtube.
