Comment:
If you have impressionable young children at home this is the Tom Waits mix for you and yours. After a hard day of paddycake, hopscotch, and jumprope they kids can drift off to sleep with bums while you knock back another bourbon. I am beginning to understand why Tom Waits doesn't wanna grow up. Caught between the anxious dreams of childhood and the nightmarish patina of adult life he twists and twists like a hangman's noose. I wonder if his world, like his songs, start out as cotton candy and end up as spider webs.Feedback:
a nice slice of some prime waits -- love every single track, let's here it for tom
Nice selections.
I have no kids at home, but I think I might be the youngest and most impressionable person on my block, so this is the Tom Waits mix for me anyway. I'm not familiar with as many of these songs (or as much of his work in general) as I should be, but this is looking very, very cool.
Silhouettes on hobos doesn't turn me on but of course this mix does....
Everybody needs a little Tom in their lives.
Ha. I like both the idea and the execution.
Great concept, better execution. The first time I head Jockey Full of Bourbon, I stopped what I was doing & just listened in awe. And who can you not love Cemetary Polka?
Just a great idea in general, and wonderfully done. Waits can do no wrong.
Great idea and tunes. I might add "Little Man" (and "Children's Story" if you really wanted to leave an impression. ;-)+
An essential component of anyone's collection!
I may steal one of these for my next mix :)
like Siren says . . . . and Jenergy . . . and Dom1 . . .
This makes me wish I had impressionable young kids at home! I really like how you've picked a theme within an artist, and you've chosen some of Waits' best here. (Also agree with Jenergy re. Cemetery Polka!)
amazing
Enviable idea for a Tom Waits mix! I might attempt to make a copy for my kids (when I have any). Congrats on a wonderfully done mix!
Really great. Sorry I missed the link!
