Tom Waits Waltzing Matilda Live 1977

kg

you are not a sad fool.

listen to a fellow human who has discovered the ability to reveal his soul.

Could I do that? NO

Could you do that?

who the hell is this frankingtien

jeff buckley...HAHAHA

This piece still haunts me to this day. He has his reasons in the way he approaches any piece.. He's brilliant.

Thanks for posting..!

I heard 'i don't wanna grow up' and 'chocolate jesus' and absolutely loved them but his voice on this sounds like he's immitating someone like a cartoon character...
Obviously just not to my taste...

if he can't but he's a great songwriter, who should sing his songs?

Underrated American songwriting gem!! I did a song for a WW I veteran -- 90 years ago today.

Tom Waits can't sing? Really? I have 18 of his albums and I'm pretty sure it's him that's singing on it.

cmon, don't babble with your fanboy bla bla..
i dont watch mtv ;) my music taste is not polluted by mainstream songs like yours (maybe).

this man has no special voice, it just sounds artificially and NOT natural. he is a good songwriter thats a fact, but NO singer!

jeff buckley, HE has a voice kk!?

aw man. you just don't get it do you :) I don't blame you for getting yourself conditioned by what mtv makes you think, is music or a good "singer".

Let this be if you can't appreciate it or do the math and see that this S**t is more awesome then enything you ever heard before.

HAHA! True!!!

lol what a S**t voice :S

WOW! You certianly have a distorted view of our world. I think most people can see that Tom is the real thing. Although some may disagree with his style, that doesn't make them bad people on our "sick sad earth". You need to get out in the sun more. Have a lollipop and sit in the park and feed the birds. If that doesn't work, there is always Prozac©. Prozac© isn't for everyone. Ask your doctor if Prozac© is right for you! Have a nice day! :) :) :) :)

When I listen to this song I think of a bunch of people at a hotel bar at 2:00 AM, drowning their sorrows in alcohol. A very moving song.

He sort of looks like James Hetfield.. back then he would've made a good stand in for Metallica.
