"this one´s for the heart"

if you want to list the most influential people on the music scene of the last quarter of a century, tom waits is at the forefront. his often melancholy songs tell of hard life as it must have been in times long past. difficult fates, unfulfilled longings and social grievances are recurring themes in his ballads, which he very often sets among the outcasts.
