Tom Waits - Jersey Girl

[Melinha55]

I agree with amygrindhouse... the only necessary love song in the world! (try to listen to Bruce Springsteen and the East Street Band.... great, too)

[jestalhut]

one of the best songs ever, and i just love Tom Waits

[bobmarley1171]

kiiiyaaaaaaa! real song

thanks for posting this

[Kfarineau]

Im fine that springsteen covered it. I like toms better and t he thing that bugged me as that bruce added a cerse. I can understand adding a solo or taking a verse out but you do NOT write new lyrics for an already made song

[yitkakarlik]

So very lovely...love, dreaming, dancing, thank you for this amazing song from such an artist Mr. Tom Waits. Inspired me to write song Forever, forever Tom.

[vazmo14850]

how i wish i had someone in my life to give this perfect song more meaning....

[bassai2010]

If he had never written a single other song, this one would make him great.

[ravingsteve123]

No disrespect to Springsteen, but I find myself a little bit angered that his version comes before this one in the search results

[310396]

Is this a perfect song?

[Malikarcanum]

2:32

"You know she fills me with artichokes"

[bayernfan1960]

@Malikarcanum LOL "you know she fills me with all her charms", Still artichokes are pretty good too.

[bayernfan1960]

@bayernfan1960 thrills me with all her charms actually.

[beanienus]

Pringles chips are about a half inch narrower now.

[RoidWalker]

This song brought me to Jazz

[vivaromanes]

I was an ignorant till this year, when I discover TOM. BUT now, no words. His music, is LIFE itself in all aspects of it. GREAT. GREAT GREAT. Thanks TOM for your songs. Goes straight to my soul.

[dodobrainish]

[MarkAllison57]

[jrab19992]

I think ant digger is a fine young person who does not deserve to be called names. Fuck tards

[shalbern1]

What does Bruce Springsteen say?

[getreal1963]

Any one goolgle before they speak. Tom wrote this song for his future wifre Kathleen.

He recorded it forst; I have the original.. Heart Attack and Vine..

Thanks Mr. Hawel for educating me..

[MrLeewale]

@getreal1963 got heartack tom done it 

[antdigger]

This guy ripped off Bruce Springsteen.

[TheFranjy]

@antdigger Waits wrote the tune - it's the other way around!

[VooDBloo]

@antdigger

[paucannell]

@antdigger get your facts straight

[TheMusic667]

@antdigger you are one dumb bastard.  fuck springsteen

[grahamlaur]

Very poppy for Tom Waits... and yet it's a work of genius.

[kulkutti]

There's a finnish version called a Taivas sinivalkoinen by bablo. the lyrics are chanced but mostly is sound pretty same :)

[ColdOasisU2]

[MsNNora]

[ba7aarsha]

Well, I don't know how many times i have being replaying this song after my friend posted it on Facebook.

[abandoned83]

One day Im gonna open my own bar and play Tom Waits songs drinking whisky...

[almfan]

[trinners61]

Please....no pettiness, no harsh words when we are in Mr. Wait's company. We're all here for the same reason. Thank you....peace.

[alzalivebb]

[GeoJ]

I close my eyes and listen, and get transported back to my childhood days in NYC ... Summer days full of of innocent fun and simple love. The power of a great song is amazing. Thank you, Mr. Waits

[jamask09]

My liver breaks.

[Younkas]

Time flies, Tom Waits.

[cracks21229]

This fucker is cool.

[biggestkkfan]

[jepass07]

I love this song!!

[RIOgrande222]

Tom Waits songs are always more famous when covered by other artists. They're never better than when performed by him, though.

[Dvdmitch]

@RIOgrande222 So true, although Springsteens version of Jersey girl is one of the better ones.

[anitaaar]

This song always puts a big stupid grin on my face

[herbpable]

perhaps the most beautiful song of ALL time .

[knallerbse96]

[kida1506]

*God* What a tune... First time I listened to it was while driving in a long country road, when it suddently started raining.,, It always comes to my mind when it rains eversince!

[Solaila1]

if you want to write a lovesong for your babe, feel it, listen and learn...

[deewkay1]

Tom Waits is the master,,, Bow down and kiss his ring... Thank you Godfather...

[audiotsunite]

An American genius! How a guy from the west can capture what Jersey is like in the summer. Anywhere he lays his head, really. His face should be on Mt. Rushmore!

[littlekitty194]

Thanks friend. Years go by yet I prefer to remember those moments that me happy. Tom Waits did that for me. I am sure you will understand. Bless you with all the love your God may bring you - whoever that may be. Peace.

[TheJohnnymoon]

Great song............John

[dashagorenc]

Best song ever, forever. 

[Wclmkay]

King Tom pure genius.Enough said !

[lassuzannitas]

passion

[littlekitty194]

This got me through a difficult parting with a beautiful wife of 22 years. Made me have faith in dreams.

That was in 1984 and I still have faith in dreams. Thanks Tom.

The Old Bloke

[Nalinho]

@littlekitty194 Thats what Waits is here to do mate. Make life better. Its an indescribably beautiful song. So I wont even try. Its all there in that 5 minutes and 12 seconds.

[haviskam]

Tom Waits is God.

[MongoTheLloyd]

@haviskam Hey... no need to insult Tom. He is far more humane than any God.

[barrielyons]

@tamerswan it has that affect :)

[63dianelisa]

My favorite Tom Waits song. I thank my college boyfriend, Lare, for turning me on to him in 1982.

[rudeEMOboi]

@63dianelisa lol i was born in 1982 ...

[rudeEMOboi]

@rudeEMOboi and i already feel old and lost :D

[amygrindhouse]

the only necessary love-song in the world!

[iowafilmdude22]

@amygrindhouse

all love songs are necessary. all are expressions of what makes us all the same, the feeling of love.

[amygrindhouse]

@iowafilmdude22 not really....sorry

[iowafilmdude22]

@amygrindhouse man, you must think you're one smart cookie. i'll leave you with that contentment, i'm not anyone to challenge your statement.

[amygrindhouse]

@iowafilmdude22 i dont really think that i am a "smart cookie". but everyone who is into "real music", understands my opinion at my 1st comment. so chill out bro!

[CocacolaCowboy1919]

@amygrindhouse But I'm in love with a Florida girl... Would be a little awkward

[fibracartonata]

ogni volta mi emoziona,è fantastica
