Tom Waits I`ll be gone

[Lilreddysteady]

Le sex.

[stonesfan1989]

After Waits recorded this song he ran to the bathroom and he shit blood, the emotion in this song shocked his system.

[malcount]

One of my favourites too. So good

[MysticSkall]

I'll need a tent to hide it! lol

[when2L]

HASH HASH HASH HASH HASH HASH HASH HASH

[liyxam1]

is it just me or does anyone else think the coral ripped off this song on "shadows fall"?

[belongin]

what the fuck does amy winehouse's disastrous face has to do with this wonderful song?

[tmmemories]

Tom makes my soul shake with laughter and tears...

[TheBubbles9]

I'd like to say it's his best song but really, he has so many great songs I just can't pick the "best"

[zaperfan]

Tom Just Rocks He is the most original artist today the one and only

@LandoftheShanks Actually Franks Wild Years is an opera Subtitled "Un Operachi Romantico in Two Acts".

The play is an iteration of "Frank's Wild Years", a song from SwordFishTromBones. The play had its world premiere at the Briar St. Theatre in Chicago, Illinois on June 22, 1986. Nonetheless an awesome song.

my favourite*********************­*******

Tonight I'll shave the mountain

I'll cut the hearts from pharoahs

I pull the road off of the rise

tear the memories from my eyes

and in the morning I'll be gone

[PabzGLRP]

Great song. Amazing lyrics, sung in an incredibly expressive way. Gotta love Tom Waits :P.

[JiminyKracker]

This is the first Tom Waits song I've heard. Stumbled on to it by accident a few weeks ago. But now I'm hooked and a mate has just lent me 'Alice'. Awesome

[TonyCook2012]

Tonight I'll shave the mountain I'll cut the hearts from pharoahs I pull the road off of the rise tear the memories from my eyes and in the morning I'll be gone I drink 1000 shipwrecks tonight I'll steal your paychecks I paint the sheets across my bed the birds will all fly from my head and in the morning I'll be gone take every dream that's breathing I have a french companion I tie myself below the deck I pull the rope around my neck and in the morning I'll be gone

[TonyCook2012]

2:19 "whoooh" fucking love IT!

[TonyCook2012]

I just want to find a live version of this !!!

[dtscam]

@LandoftheShanks Well, it does come from a musical- Tom's "Frank's Wild Years". Haven't seen it either, but would love to... :)

[poopdujour]

If Tom Waits doesn't get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year. I'm boycotting music.

[MultiWill97]

Heard this song hundreds of times, everytime I hear it, it just gets better

[horbergaren]

This song makes me think of half-pirate French seamen dancing around the deck a stormy night

[mrkvamaster]

at his best

[THrockfan]

den spielen sie auch im europapark,im herbst xDD ich liebe dieses lied,es ist mein liebstes...

[poebelly]

One of my favourite Waits songs!

[martyrofevil]

"I drink a thousand shipwrecks" is the best line I've ever heard. This song rules.

[olynthos1]

Tonight I'll shave the mountain I'll cut the hearts from pharoahs I pull the road off of the rise tear the memories from my eyes and in the morning I'll be gone I drink 1000 shipwrecks tonight I'll steal your paychecks I paint the sheets across my bed the birds will all fly from my head and in the morning I'll be gone take every dream that's breathing find every boot that's leaving shoot all the lights in the cafe and in the morning I'll be gone I bet 1000 dollars I have a french companion...

[Dylane78]

Magique, tant l'accompagnement que la voix et son intonation, un pur moment de bonheur.. et ce rythme.. ensorcelant..

Thanks so lot for posting!

[imnotalogin]

I'm pretty sure Tom was credited with the rooster sounds in this song. Can anyone confirm that?

[ultimatepiano12]

@imnotalogin

Yes he was! If you check out the wiki page for this album, he is credited with intsruments as well as 'rooster'.

[godverdommelul]

@imnotalogin Yep. Still have the CD here. Tom plays the rooster.

[crusteous]

I just can't believe how good this song is. The melody is so good it makes my toes curl, the singing robust and pitch perfect and Ribot's guitar work inspirational.  If there is a better song/performance, I have never heard it.

[draigan]

The song after this one is yesterday is hear hehe ^_^ Telling?

[MrAmichael]

great song! if anyone hasn't seen "down by law" starring tom waits, it's a must see

[XAVIERCUERVO]

[Sniperhound4]

Would you look at that? One person hit dislike by  accident!
