Then maybe you ought to try, as it sounds like you might have more time 
for him than you think. I also notice that one of the two comments on 
the video was made by '/maliciousRainDog/', a Tom Waits handle if ever 
there was one.

I actually didn't mean to aim the remark at you anyway; I meant that the 
songwriter was obviously listening to rather a lot of TW to write the 
song. It actually /reeks /of him. (/The Reek of Tom Waits /is an album 
title I have reserved for future use)
