Tom Waits is a good singer, man. His first real big song was "Missing you" wasnt it? Ah yeah, thats a great song. Tom Waits kicks ass.

Tom Waits is my favorite artist. I've finally purchased all of his full lenth studio albums.

Real gone isn't his best work but that doesn't mean its bad by any stretch of the mark. Songs like "make it rain" "Hoist that rag" "Don't go into that barn" and "sinf of my father" are just as red hot as his greatest efforts and can be held up with anything off of Rain Dogs.

My favorite album by him is Blue Valentine for no other reason than I like the overall mood on the disc.

This won't be a popular opinon, but its an honest one. I feel he's the greatest singer songwriter ever.

I'm pretty fond of Small Change . It's really weird, because if you listen to his first album Closing Time His voice hadn't been affected by all the cigarettes and alcohol yet. His voice sounds smooth, like a totally different person.

I heard "Innocent When You Dream" on The Current (the best radio station ever... I love Minnesota

) and I was reminded how cool Tom Waits is.

Plus, he eats nails for breakfast.

"The Piano Has Been Drinking" is the best song ever.

I don't care about this Tenacious D song being the greatest song ever in opinion or whatever $hit they talk about.
Tom Waits is the best man alive.

I don't think anyone alive has as much pure character as he does.
