Tom Waits?
 
I've been on the fence about a lot of his work. But I really like Bone Machine.

What do you think of Rain Dogs? To buy or not to buy...

Bone Machine is the only recording of his I have been able to stomach.
Can't take that voice...
I know a whole lotta people who worship this guy though, so I'm probably not the one to be posting here.

I don't like him.It's in his voice.Theatrical voices can go and fuck themselves for what i know.

Diamanda, Cave, Bell, Gloria Gaynor...

I like Tom Waits. But not that much. I wouldn't call myself a fan. But he's good. Ish.

I like Real Gone and Bone Machine a lot. I haven't heard all of Rain Dogs, but the songs I have heard from it I like, same goes for Small Change.

I think Jean Pierre Jeunet should make a movie starring Tom Waits. Tom Waits music reminds me of the City of Lost Children.

Tom Waits is so eclectic though that it is really hard to be a fan of his. I sort of hold myself as a gleeful listener.

Ok i'll rephrase then.Theatrical voices 'THAT SAY NOTHING TO ME' can go and fuck themselves .I couldn't put it better than this.

swordfishtrombones owns everything.

I loooove The Heart of Saturday Night, but the rest of his stuff I always thought to be just pretty good....quite the writer though.

sonic sphere 07.13.2006 05:58 PM

i think he's great. i really like his voice and if i keep drinking & smoking as much as i do now i'll probably end up sounding like him myself!

Tom Waits is truely great. Yes, Bone Machine is indeed an amazing album. Real Gone is awesome, too. I love his voice, very soothing and unique. Such a talented songwriter.
