  • quite cool it's got it's own charm but I think tom waits got the tone right for this song.

  • love every thing bob does

  • This video went viral on Prague

  • So would this be considered a Chicago blues song or jazz?

  • Hey Bobby Seger......I've been a fan of yours for EVER....but your last tunes are ummmmm .............sounding like you're grasping at straws!!!! I love you and your voice ....................keep it real Bob keep it real...like waaaaaaaaay back when put your heart into it like before!!! love love love you!! <3 xo....I know we need new but don't just sing what they tell you!!!....YOU know what you like and your fans!!!

    Oh btw....why don't you ever come to central Canada....

  • Bob does this song sooo much justice. I love Tom's original, but man,Bob kills it as well.

  • just goes to show the impact Tom Waits has had on EVERYONE

  • Waits wrote the song, copyright 1974. End of story. This is an OK version.

  • Seger's version is wonderful...Waits' version is not nearly as good..maybe if he could sing

  • I personally prefer Waits version. That being said. i see what Seger is doing here. and i LIKES IT!

  • Tom Waits' version is WAY better. This sounds really uncreative and uninspired...

  • @Fimbultyr No

  • @TheNewCommander It's good that we can have personal opinions, eh?

  • @Fimbultyr no way...this is THE version...Waits suxx

  • @whizzkid58 No I think this version is soooo boring, that my face falls asleep :D

  • @Fimbultyr bob seger wrote the song.

  • @mercierkristina no he did not

  • @Fimbultyr I love Tom Waits to bits but Seger's version seems to give me slightly more goosebumps

  • Comment removed

  • Respond to this video...Rong.

  • @Fimbultyr Bob Seger transposed this song into the key of F. Personally, I think it's an improvement.

  • Bob Seger is a WAY better singer!

  • It's like sleeping with your girlfriends younger sister.

  • Not as god as the original Tom Waits!

  • @BoogiVonSlap I am a HUGE Tom fan myself but he didnt write this. This was done by Lee Rocker.

  • @Simonbard1

    Actually..... Tom Waits did write this song. Lee Rocker covered it on the 2000 tribute album to Tom Waits by the same name. Rocker was born in 1961, this song was released in 1974 on Tom Waits' The Heart of Saturday night. There's no way he wrote this when he was 13. Thou shalt not take credit from Tom where credit is due to Him.

  • @jimmymcclukcluk God your right. I apologize to Tom and you. Mostly Tom. Thanks for setting me straight. Great song huh. I love everything Tom has done. Have about twenty of his albums though i need the other twenty. Always looking for accurate info on him. Thanks again.

  • ...In that burgundy sky. Great and worth five stars.

  • Thank you. A perfect version of the song.
