"I'm old Mr. Pocket...but you're older" Watch his other brilliance in the wonderfull Cohen brothers movie; The ballad of Buster Scrugs. Tom Waits is one of a kind.
Are you pretending to love, well I hear that it pays wells Or my personal favorite How do your pistol and your bible and your sleeping pills go? Are you still jumping out of windows in expensive clothes? Such beautiful lines and amazing performance here. I always loved the original recording but it feels so sloppy compared to this live recording.
This has gotta be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Hands down.
This song eats into my soul . Tom Waits , you are genius .
Good grief - I saw this the next night in Berlin. And two nights later in The Hague. Formative experience.
Saw him in New York that tour. Incredible. His vocal range was astounding. I left very happy.
My favorite Tom Waits song...neck and neck with Goin Out West...
I saw him in Stockholm in 99. Best ever.
3:14-4:14
That minute is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.
Perfect guitar solo phrasing by Smokey Hormel.
... jep!...,...!
I was there!

You look rather tired, are you pretending to love?

real-real-real
is this version available somewhere or did you record it yourself? i cant even get over the power in this version. pure goosebumps.
looking4musics It's to be found on the bootleg CD of this gig, I don't know who recorded it, but it's probably a soundboard recording.
Fredrik af Trampe thanks, i found it :)
who are you ?
He is not your friend.
What is wrong with him? Was he in an accident? Poor guy...his voice...wow
His voice is incredible. There's more truth in that voice than most people can even hear anymore. It's their loss. We are blessed to have had him.
@@markolson9526 Still got him
There's nothing wrong with his voice. He's using a very specific vocal technique to create this sound with his voice.
@@bruh-si8id What?! Why would one purposely choose to sound like their vocal chords had been severely injured in an accident? That is bizarre
@@papapoodo6685 I think it gives his music a certain emotional strain to it, like the vocals are to resemble the pain of the character in the lyrics.
