One of Tom Waits best songs, this song touches my heart, every time I listen to it. He paints life with his words, and makes it so melancholical, you just feel it deep into your soul.

I wasn't talking about the composition itself, I was only refering to his tecnique playing... I didn't meant to say it's bad, just meant to say there are better ones, technically, with their instrument... When it comes to composition, i think he is awesomelly good...The rythmic syncopation and dissonances he uses at times are simply genious... Brilliant man+brilliant ideas+brilliant comping musicians...it's the best thing there is... =P

There is nothing I have encountered from Tom, and I've been an avid fan for over 25 years, that wasn't deeper than a raspy voice. Yes, he's sometimes hard to understand: this style of singing is called "scat". Brought in by the Jazz culture. Download the lyrics--well worth it!
@christown28272 жыл бұрын
'Scat' singing is otherwise known as wordless vocals and there is no element of that here but I like the way Waits is singing in an almost Louis Armstrong style way. Ella Fitzgerald is probably the greatest 'Scat' vocalist. Check out her old Memorex tape ad which is on 'KZbin'.

Thanks for the correction on the definition of "scat" singing. I sit corrected! I was mostly thinking of his "Step Right Up" but technically, that's not scat either. But I can't compare dear Tom to Louis Armstrong or Ella Fitzgerald. They set the unset mark...

Tom is an international traveler with good German shoes, Irish woolen socks, a half pint of Russian vodka & a cuban cigar in his jacket pocket and a three day stubble; down to his last Chesterfield filterless and he pissed that he left his lighter in the bus station on a rainy Wednesday night> He ponders the galaxy; his galaxy by the way; we just live in his cosmic dust. Don't make him madder or it'll only cause more earthquakes.

That's exactly what I'm taking about: he's a showman and a businessman. But for exactly that reason I can only take whaterver he does with a grain of salt. He's putting on an act and there's no secret about that, but I can never believe his songs and performance like I can believe Leadbelly's singing and know everything he sings about he is living. This performance by Tom is outright horrible clowning though but he's down for that too.

A fair amount of them I'd say. In Germany, you have to take English at school, even back then (the East Germans mostly had to learn Russian, poor sods...)

If he was a businessman...would he donate the money he earns,for instance,when he prosecutes sb for copyrights violation?... I like Tom, and the way he sings.I know there were loads os musicians whose music is far better,technically speaking,but the music i like the most is his. not just because of the music but because of tom himself. He ain't pretentious, he's just true to himself.He is what he is and there's nth that could change that.

No sorry, it's not "scat". Scat is improvising vocal notes over accompaniment without lyrics. In other words, singing notes rather than words.Waits does scat occasionally, but the majority of his singing is in lyrics. Scat was first made popular by Louis Armstrong Ella Fitzgerald.
@atreideslegend15 жыл бұрын
Not sure about your comment, about some musicians work being technically better. Tom Waits uses some very interesting/complex chord sequences and often plays modally, his main strength really is in the quality of the song writing.
