Where have you gone, Tom Waits?

[out_there]

Okay, yes, it's bad when a post vaguely related to a fandom refers to a fic in the subject line. But, I'm bored. I'm... lackluster. I can barely be bothered using capitals.

(heh. i'm not going to.)

should i know tom waits? seriously, is this a singer i should know? i'm checking my memory and it's coming up empty. i don't know him.

(Oh man, even when I'm the one eschewing the shift key, it still annoys the hell out of me. Back to capitals, people.)

The only reason I'm even curious about Tom Waits is Dan. The adorable way he almost cries when he's told he can't see Tom Waits play.

So, has Tom Waits sung anything famous? Anything I'd recognise? If not, any recommendations? I might see if I can download some music later this week.

I want to know what all the fuss is about.

Heh. Okay, no, that wasn't where my mind went.

Although, now you've brought it up, that song is in my head.

*sings to self* "And it's my heart that's breaking, down this long distance line tonight"

Oh no! It's been stuck in my head since I thought of it - I'm so sorry to have inflicted it on you as well.

Heh. I actually have a radio/mix tape with that song on it. It's just one of those... great to sing along to songs.

Yes, I also like "I wear my sunglasses at night". *hangs head in shame*
