the funniest thing about this cover they could just ask mark lanegan to do the vocals but decided against it because people gonna mistaken this cover to tom waits remastered version....
He's one of the only musicians who I'd say it feels perfectly natural for him to be singing Tom Waits songs. Josh Homme is the younger newer Tom Waits basically
The song has such a Queens feel to it, great idea for a cover. Also the photo you've chosen is perfect - this is serious US road trip soundtrack territory.
just terrific....the best thing about artists like Mr. Waits, and our friends the Queens is that they don't give a shit if you like it or not.... and the bonus is that there's millions out there who would light their face on fire to be in the same room with such talent and vision.....
Robert Paulson i hear you, and honestly I couldn't tell you man... probably the same reason ,why people look at the Tom Waits portrait tattoo on my leg and ask the question, " Tom who?".... LOL..you just can't figure 'em out...... humans, strange creatures.
This song rules so hard. Both versions. And any future covers. Because if you're going to pay tribute and cover an artist of godly proportions, a Tom Waits song solidifies the fact that you have good taste. QOTSA was already beyond awesome before I heard this cover. Now, I'm exponentially confident of their excellence.
In French, there is a saying: "Les gouts et les couleurs ne se discutent pas." I believe the same thing about music. The only thing I don't understand is those people that say that that the riff ain't right, sounds nothing like the original,... I heard the song on the radio and recognized it on the spot. Nothing wrong with my ears, I assure you. This is brilliant, QOTSA. Nothing less than that.

I like different takes on good songs, great to see different interpretations of songs that obviously made an impact on the people who choose to mix up the original version.....
For those who don't know, the screengrab is from From Dusk Til Dawn and that's Quentin Tarantino's boot hanging out the window of a 1970 Mercury Cougar. George Clooney is driving after they just robbed a gas station, killed the owner and torched the place. There's a kidnapped woman in the trunk.
I used to have an Oldsmobile 88. it was an experience. I sure felt safe. Also, kind of badass from the compliments I got. For some reason many found it iconic. It made up for my friends making fun of me. What did they know? My Dad had bestowed it on me with a tone of reverence.
I think they do a pretty good job - they got that driving, pumping sound and I like the fact that the singer is doing his own thing with it - lets face it, only Waits can sing like Waits.
As someone that was obsessed with QOTSA in high school - and has this song emblazoned in my mind from watching Fight Club about ten million times ... Yeah. This fucks. Hard.
@ColmaKiddo It was the Ramones covering Tom Waits, not the other way round (I Don't Want to Grow Up). It's from the 1992 album Bone Machine and The Ramones did it on the 1995 album Adios Amigos.

+Guy Mann damn you where there???? you know them!??? wow that's awesome!!!!
nah man it's just a food for thought observation
+Guy Mann Never heard of him but Google imaged and holy balls, they must be related, they look like twins lol.
+Guy Mann this is on point haha is his son after all ;)
i personally love thought observation, but i like to shorten it to thoughtservation.
dummy.
Ive never heard this cover, FUCKING BRILLIANT.
Just finding it myself. Amazing stuff. All the best from Scotland!
Tom waits a brilliant idea man
How am I just now finding this?!? Favorite tune covered by favorite band, Unreal!
...and I'm the 6,000th like. on the dot, I'm going to the Casino!
Everything comes in its own time
Doesn't get any better than that
Arrived today, Oct 2023.
this needs to be in the next Borderlands I fucking swear
Wtf I found this song and this comment immediately after playing that "next" borderlands you spoke of
I love how Tom and Queens do the song with guitars tuned down to C.🤘
That C tuning really compliments Toms voice
it's B, they key of the song: ruclips.net/video/0_wqAcj6EBU/видео.html&pp=ygUSam9lIGdvcmUgdG9tIHdhaXRz
@@stevenborgens1390 C. Grab a tuner bud
love playing fallout new vegas to this
There aren't many people I'd trust to cover Waits, but God dammit. That's a good cover.
This song literally made me move out west
This song was always a crowd favorite when we used to cover it!
respect to josh for having the courage of covering "Waits"
He's one of the only musicians who I'd say it feels perfectly natural for him to be singing Tom Waits songs. Josh Homme is the younger newer Tom Waits basically
@@duffman18 nah

" I'll do what I want and I'm gonna get paid!!"
I ain't no extra, I'm a leading man!
Awesome cover of my favorite musician by one of my favorite bands.

Yeah, but Kyuss though brother... Why are Queens so widely recognised, while Kyuss remain niche? Seems a crime to me.

and there are millions who dont care that waits and queens dont care

Cuz u could do it oh so much better.....
I love playing this in my backyard,
Because my neighbors dog "CRu" howls the backup vocals.
Warner Bros just signed him up for a 3 albumdeal
This is great tom waits is the man

QOTSA was already beyond awesome before I heard this cover. Now, I'm exponentially confident of their excellence.
when i first heard this song,i didn't know it wasn't a cover, and i was so surprised by the great vocals of Josh!
he is a god.

I've been a fan for years and this is the first time I heard this. God damn I love these guys.
67 cougar..my first car
Also your first girlfriend.
excellent cover! love Tom and this is great!!
Really exceptional.
Nothing better to wake up to
Im glad im not the only one who likes to describe songs with colors.
I love this. Thank you for uploading, Will.
I'm going out west where the wind blows tall
Cause Tony Franciosa used to date my ma'
They got some money out there; they're givin' it away
I'm gonna do what I want, and I'm gonna get paid
Do what I want, and I'm gonna get paid
Little brown sausages lying in the sand
I ain't no extra baby, I'm a leading man
My parole officer will be proud of me
With my Olds 88
And the Devil on a leash
With my Olds 88
And the Devil on a leash
I know karate, voodoo too
I'm gonna make myself available to you
I don't need no makeup
I got real scars
I got hair on my chest
N'I look good without a shirt
Well, I won't loose my composure in a high-speed chase
My friends say I'm ugly, I've got a masculine face
I got some drag-strip courage
I can really drive a bed
I'm gonna change my name To Hannibal
Or maybe just Rex
Change my name To Hannibal
Or maybe just Rex
I know karate, voodoo too
I'm gonna make myself available to you
I don't need no makeup
I got real scars
I got hair on my chest
I look good without a shirt on
Drive all night, get some speed
I'm gonna wait for the sun to shine down on me
I got a hole in my roof
The shape of a heart
And I'm going out west
Where they appreciate me
Going out west
Where they appreciate me
Going out west
Going out west
Gone...
Love it !
QUEENSSSS
Both this and the original are amazing!
"little brown sausages lying in the saaaAaand!, yeah"
Love this version
Solid cover!
Awesome! My favourite band covering my favourite singer-songwriter.
sounds great!
I like different takes on good songs, great to see different interpretations of songs that obviously made an impact on the people who choose to mix up the original version.....
I've got Tom Waits and QOTSA in my music collection....so I love this

Siempre buenos y originales
Not really a Queens fan but they did a good job covering this. Has the Queens twist but the original rings through
With my olds 88 and a devil on a leash!
I used to have an Oldsmobile 88. it was an experience. I sure felt safe. Also, kind of badass from the compliments I got. For some reason many found it iconic. It made up for my friends making fun of me. What did they know? My Dad had bestowed it on me with a tone of reverence.
this is pretty awesome
Never heard a Tom cover better than Tom’s.
LOVE this song! I've been looking for it ever since I watched "fight club" for the first time! took me 5 years to find it xD
This is my favorite song ever. I’ve played this fuggin YT video so many times 😂
Grooving down the road
lmao, Goin' Out West (Tom Waits original) is the ringtone on my phone.
I know karate, btw.
Voodoo too?
I got a hole in my roof the shape of a heart
How meta that Robert Paulson commented on a cover of going out west...a song used in the same movie he inhabits. ;)
X2
@@robertpaulson2842 his name is robert paulson
I'm a die-hard fan of Mr. Waits and I like this cover.
This song is fucking awesome
I think they do a pretty good job - they got that driving, pumping sound and I like the fact that the singer is doing his own thing with it - lets face it, only Waits can sing like Waits.
what a sweet little find - have love Tom for 30 years - loved Queens for about 7 - nice to see Homme-age getting paid
Solid cover
Cool song
This cover is the gateway drug that lead to my Tom Waits addiction.
been a fan of Tom forever and QOTSA since, well since kyuss. This song puts me in mind of Jon Spencer Blues Explosion for some reason.
Awesome cover. Would love to hear Lanegan on vocals too.
cool session
This song and the Cougar f'in rock!!!
very well said
Only QOTSA could properly cover this.
I'd quite like to see Mastodon do a cover of this
See the RUclips cover by "Spences"
Dude, Widespread Panic rocks the sh** out of this song
ruclips.net/video/N_8OYn5GSz8/видео.html
Gov't Mules is much better as well
Take a listen to the cover BrainDogs did.
As someone that was obsessed with QOTSA in high school - and has this song emblazoned in my mind from watching Fight Club about ten million times ... Yeah. This fucks. Hard.
Nailed it.
ill check it out. This is actually the only version ive heard tho ive always been aware that it is a cover. Awesome song.
nice one josh
lord have mercy.
Love it! Just sold my 69xR7😳🖤☘️
SlideShow of the Year award.
I never knew it was possible to make a Tom Waits cover. Not quite the original, but still awesome.
Is there anybody here that would like to see a Mark Lanegan Cover of this song?! I sure would.
this picture is so fitting to the song
another TOP NOTCH cover!
the music that plays in my mind when i enter in Bar
Out there in the west
This Cougar is actually from the Movie "From Dusk to Dawn" with Clooney and Tarantino .
Gary King That's exactly how Tarantino's sitting in it too..wrapping his hand up. The silhouette shapes look like it's them. Power of suggestion,maybe
Its a Mercury Cougar from the Movie From Dusk till Dawn
@heron highoncrac depends on who you buy from
u got an eye 4 an eye,
1.2 million views. Never heard it lol. I love music!
cool cool cool
DANCING BABY!
Where was this performed and when? It's absolutely amazing
I think I've found the song I will blast in my car during the summer
great shot of a Mercury Cougar
HOT DANG
This song needs an music video!
John R. Mudd There's a music video for the original
John R. Mudd Absolutely haha. Personally I prefer this version of the song, so I think a music video for this would be absolutely fantastic.
The coolest part of this cover is how Tom Waits does this song in that same awesome Key of Drop C standard. I wonder if that's why they chose it?
Fuckin best cover ever! SO Style!
I listen to the QOTSA version on sunny days, Tom's on rainy days
they are just genius. by the way nice car on the pic.
Rock Hard.
Did a fair amount of heading west in a '67 XR-7. Great car for it.
quality!!!
yesssssssssssss!
instant like
Tom Waits FTW!!!!
I think these words must have been the non-stop commentary Steve McQueen heard in his head
@ColmaKiddo It was the Ramones covering Tom Waits, not the other way round (I Don't Want to Grow Up). It's from the 1992 album Bone Machine and The Ramones did it on the 1995 album Adios Amigos.
Holy shit.
@onyachamp anyone have an idea what car that delicious piece of metal is?
Going to get sum speed feeling fine
Still fresh.
