Tom Waits, "Martha"

No good vids on youtube, but I'm obsessed with this song right now...

Good song.

Slightly off topic, but how about Tom Waits and Iggy Pop having coffee and cigarettes?

I loved the Bill Murray scene too.

Thanks for the reminder.

DT -

How did you stumble across this song?
I think anyone who has fell in love at some time only to see it end, can relate to this song. In my case, replace "martha" with "Lori" and it's even more bittersweet. Great find...

Bravo

Anon,

I just listen to a lot of music. My father has a few Tom Waits albums that I've listened to and this song stood out.

Glad you liked it.

Sweet tune, DT. Waits is a great songwriter and delivers 'em like no one else.

DinoDad does it again!

Best regards,
Ray
