I’ve been working on my mix tape of Tom Waits love songs this week.
I have the goal of finishing it by Valentine’s Day, which is a tall order given that I have been working on this mix for over three years.
I first mentioned it back in January 2008 as I bemoaned the lack of love in my life…
“Tom, I believe, is a man unlike the typical man, with a thorough respect and understanding of that incomprehensible mental state called love.” read the rest of the post
In the post I reference his song San Diego Serenade, but neglect to include it. It’s a great song.
This song is definitely making it onto the mix.
Do you have a favorite Tom Waits love song I should make sure to consider?
I vote for “Ol’ 55”!!!
