elle pue du boul cette chanson, la gratte est grinçante, le haut parleur ruine tout, la batterie est une casserolle... For ggn1 : I can't really imagine how in the world even my grand-ma could not do better than this :s. The sound is really awful, my ears are bleeding, you really like it or it's ironic?

Does anyone know where I can find a mp3 of this audio? I love the raspy quality of his voice with the speaker. The mule Variations recording doesn't have that same feel to it.

You're hilarious. It's like you can do better!

Are you just going hop around to all the Tom Waits videos and post the same comment(s), Newfuturion?

An overrated hack in the Captain Beefheart mold. Waits is blues for those who don't know the blues, and affected "weirdness" (i.e. not actually weird) for normal college educated white people who think they're hip and "out there". A stale rehashing of Beat movement cliches. In this song Waits engages in some tired and lazily absurdist mocking of religion to please his would-be sophisticated secular audience, (those desperate to satisfy their self image of "coolness".)
