ellen cherry performs her song, Way Down the Hole, which was also featured on the hit TV show "The Wire". The showcase was at Folk Alliance in Memphis TN in Feb. 2008. See http://www.ellencherry.com or http://www.folk.org for more info
@TheChrisDAmatoShow Someone call Tom and let him know this person is indeed making a brave attempt to cover his song. I am not a basher but perhaps she should at least listen to other version of this before taking this leap. It is not bad but not sure its fair. Tom without a doubt wrote this and not many good artists can implement the elements he intended. Look what Buddy Guy did with "Mary had a little lamb"....just sayin thats what I want to hear when someone doing a cover, something funky
@Stevenramm No. This song was written by Tom Waits for his 1987 album "Frank's Wild Years" This is a good cover but she did not write the song. If shes lucky she wasn't a sperm when this song was written.
