Tom Waits - Blue Valentines
July 8, 2007
Occasionally I’ll be posting songs on here. I don’t have a hair of musical talent on me, but I listen to a fairly eclectic selection of music. I can find something I like in every genre, and I’m constantly searching for new and interesting musicians.
I’m going to post music that probably won’t be heard on most radio stations. I’m not doing this to score obscure indy music points; I just don’t see a reason to post something that everyone’s bound to have heard.
I realise that sharing music is frowned upon these days, but I’m giving the artist free publicity and not making any money from this website, so I feel fine doing it. Songs will be taken down if ever requested, but I don’t see this as a morally bad thing to do.
Anyway, here’s the first song. Tom Waits is my favourite singer-songwriter, but he’s a bit of an acquired taste. I’m really into sad, drunken songs for whatever reason, and this is a nice one for a lazy Sunday.




Nice, you’d probably like Jolie Holland as well.
