Had the good fortune of seeing him at a Bridge Benefit and if I had one word to
describe it would be "maniacal". If I had another, it would be "genius". I'd love to run into him in some deserted dive bar somewhere and have a drink or two (and I don't even drink.....herb s another story). Keep up the brilliant music Tom!!!!
It's 1989, I'm on a greyhound bus from one coast to the other, it's Christmas eve, I got a walkman (remember those) with only one cassette. Bootlegged copy of Franks wild years, given to me as a gift "here's something to listen to"
Oh my, okay so I knew Tom did movies, but I didn't know he had any music videos! Thats brilliant, I love it 8D thank you so much for puting this up, that just made my day!
there are many musicians I love; but at times I feel like they leave you wanting something a little more, with tom it's mind blowing and filling all at the same time. Like a cake made entirely out of icing, served on a garbage can lid by an italian dwarf maitre'd.
@Joee1257 Nah man, the most underrated musician of all time has probably drank himself to death while completely broke with a drawer full of amazing songs no one has ever heard. Tom Waits made it.

Tom Waits is overrated. Sorry, it just doesn't do anything for me.

@chemtrailstacoma2011 Meh, he's not for everyone. However, overrated to you =/= overrated.

Absolute genius, this is my favorite artist hands down. Listen to this song walking in the rain by yourself and you will believe the same.
