Thank you for choosing this. I do not think many would. Especially being able to begin and end the song (as yourself) with , what I saw as, purity of intent for the audience. You sang it with feeling, tenderness which is exactly what makes this song so powerful. You were fantastic.
Good cover! Although I think ya should have put a capo on the first fret and played in D. That way you'd have open chords and they always sound better on acoustic. Ya would get better dynamic too.
But that takes nothing away from a good performance. Well done! This song made me sob. Especially the last verse. "The last thing she said was "I love you mom"". Touching and heart breaking! Brilliance!
It amazes me how long it took me to realize that the narrator is the murderer. (why does he sleep with a shovel and leather gloves - why does he know what her last words were - if he isn't?).

Oh my god ! Please everybody, stop to slaughter the Tom Waits's songs. And man, at least, tune in your guitar, this is a minimum to do if you record a song. A little rain never hurt no one, but your recovery hurt me so much !
Not only is your poor grammar offensive, but your ignorance about music nearly gave me a headache. Fortunately, I had only to listen to this brilliant cover to ease my poor head.
yeah, no problem. I just realized I accidentally commented twice haha. guess it's cause the comments don't show up automatically and I was tired at the time and forgot I had commented haha. whatever though, good job.

I normally don't listen to covers but I'm glad I listened to yours. Excellent. Many thanks. I'm sure Tom would say the same.

You have a good taste in music, dude.
I just bought this CD tonight, actually, and it just reaffirms Tom Waits' genius in my mind.
Good cover, too.
