Oh, how we danced and we swallowed the night, for it was all ripe for dreamin’. Oh, how we danced away all of the lights, we’ve always been out of our minds. - Tom Waits

Tom Waits at Club Paradise, Boston, 5th Oct 1977



fytomwaits: Tom Waits Guest Presenter In his role as guest presenter on the Daily Planet, Tom Waits reveals his favourite recording ever, how Motown choreography is like Hula Dancing and how ‘Everything is permitted’ as he guest presents and programs the Daily Planet and chats with Lucky Oceans. His playlist includes William Burroughs (singing, can you believe?), Otis Redding, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Bob Dylan, Mary Gauthier, Elvis Presley, Alex Chilton and Los Lobos. Tom explains where he thinks wordless vocals come from, how he refuses to be the ‘everyman.’ He speaks of the joys of having his son be the drummer in his band, how Bob Dylan is ‘a country to be explored,’ and how he loved Bob’s music as a youngster and figured out that the way to learn how to write songs was to listen to them and try and figure out how they were put together. Listening to Dylan made him wonder ‘how do you get to the point when things come tumbling out of you.’ He muses that everyone starts out as a bad imitation of someone else and inevitably finds their own voice.

Your heart, my love, is apocalyptic.


I'm Miriam. I'm queer and feminist. I listen to Tom Waits. I have a love of obscure cinema, Twin Peaks, Blade Runner, and foxy Europeans.
