This is a gem!

tom waits is frank sinatra in the man with the golden arm . its frank's wild years, when sinatra was a non-person in america. its a norman rockwell painting of old style america- halcyonic days in that mad old nostalgic light. its 4 o clock in the morning and still we cant sleep. melancholia for a depressed drunk. jack vettriano, the scottish painter is the closest to the feeling - nostalgic melancholia . beautiful.

ever heard of bitches brew album? there was tons of jazz in the 70s. but who cares how original or unique he is, i was talking about the music.

in the 70´s he was making jazz, when everyone was listening to rock, in the 80´s he was making industrial/junkyard experimental music, when everyone was listening to pop, in the 90´s he was making punk/blues, when everyone was making grunge, and today he´s making great alternative music.. so, you see, he´s constantly decade infront of today, just by being a decade behind ;)

what are you talking about
-
you´re right.. but what tom does is genius, you know, he´s constantly a decade infront of todays music, just by looking in the past, it all runs in circles you see. Now, THAT is what makes him one of the best artists in the world I think

I didn't say that, and I don't think that.
I am not an idiot, somebody said how can I make my voice like Tom Waits . Yes there are people you can compare his voice to but I doubt he sat down and said how can I sound exactly like Louis Armstrong. I just meant sing in your own voice.
To be honest there's nothing I would love more than to be able to sing like Tom Waits. I can see why anyone would want to, I think he has the most expressive and touching voice I've ever heard. Nothing wrong with wanting your words to carry weight.
