I saw him for the one and only time at the Beacon Theater in NYC back in 2000. He's the finest, most fantastic showman in the world! This is the best video I've seen of this song.
The talent this man has is unbelievable. Just started listening to tom waits a few months ago and I am hooked. This man has a gift that we could only hope to have when it come to entertaining. Just watch him on any video and you will see it. Keep on keeping on Tom. Your the best!!!!
Note the striped shirt...a mainstay for many years...I was hooked on striped shirts all the way back to 1970...got home movies of me in the army in Vietnam, (off duty) and damn, I'm wearing a striped shirt just like this.
I thought I was the only one who threw glitter around in the middle of sentances . This is my morning routine . Ehehehehehe ! Great friggin tune man !!!
i would just die to see this man. we would travel so far for this chance! please do another tour! i can't believe we missed the last one! we were willing to go anywhere....sold out :(
again, way smoking band! but that hobo guy is killing me!! how much vodka do you think they had to give him to get rid of him? I'll bet he met his jesus that night, eh? lmao! poor fella.
I do this song in my set and people love it here in the Portland, OR blues community. There's always 2-3 people in the audience who nod and smile in recognition... and put a few bucks on the tip jar.
i'm here now

THis is a song for no hat.
Maybe a gold and white robe, but no hat.
Maybe a pontiff's pointer, but no hat.
Maybe a dunce cap, but no hat.

This video is flawless. The only part it tops being flawless is when he throws the glitter.
Absolutely the best there is.
