Love when Jimmy’s incompetent arrogance is revealed by guests who out class him on so many levels. Tom Waits is a genius. Poet, musician, philosopher, quick witted, humble, etc.
Incompetent arrogance is one word or I would call him fake, nervous, loud, no substance but waste of air, annoying and yes, I can not stand him. The beauty is I do not have to. Colbert is fitting my fill of smart. Just here for Tom (Waits because sadly I do not know the guy but each record except this one fits my groove [I did not know I had in me]. Come on Tom Waits ... give us just one more!
Tom Waits for no one Seriously, Waits is like no other artist around. His songwriting and performances are awesome and his sense of humor is amazing. Saw him perform 5 or 6 times and I look forward to seeing him again
no. bad idea. Tom Waits is pithy + to the point = profound make him fill an hour or 2 of empty space every night with a string of strangers who are neither + selling some Hollyjunk product by trying to presend their Hollyjunk is profound & you waste what makes Waits great by spreading it too thin. appreciate what you get w/o pretending the wise man is a magician for all roles
Sometimes when I feel really down about myself, my conversational skills, my articulation, even my abilities at the workplace, I come and watch Jimmy Fallon . . . and I instantly feel better about myself.
I think Jimmy was probably super intimidated and fanboy-ing so hard that he really flubbed this. Tom, on the other hand, had a whole comedy bit down cold!
@@mmegraham yes to both Fallon really epitomizes the TV phony thing some other talk show hosts do an interesting spoof on that expectation Fallon just tastes like a straight-up full-time cringe-worthy sycophant
If ur really down n out tom shares an amazing trick to cheer anyone up in jamacia on the show fishing with john its actually part of the criterion collection but witout spoilin anything check it out
I always listened to Tom Waits in private because I thought none of my friends would dig it or even know who he is, then as I grew older I slowly found out here and there that all my friends did the same. "You ever listen to Tom Waits?" "...I love Tom Waits" "I DO TOO"
He typed "get" instead of "did" , Dad. Got ahead of himself. But you were too wound up with your endorphin buzzy trolling, in your role as "Masterful Native Speaker" to notice. The rest of it, spelling and syntax is perfect, and the use of the "how on earth" cliche obviously indicates a native English speaker. No punctuation, but that's about par for youtube. Clearly, you also have no life ......here, you can have some of my red paint. Paint a big "L" on your forehead. People will think we're in a band or something. @@davidpfeifer9489
Holy crap, that was one of the most painful, awkward interview I have ever seen. Fallon should be relegated to cable access television after that debacle of an interview.
@@natelivas3961 yeah, blues is, but hip hop.....not really. also rock n roll hall of fame has been a joke for the last 30 years. People like miley cyrus getting inducted lol.
Jimmy loves everyone's movies, everyone's songs, everyone's albums, everyone's TV shows. He watches all the movies, all the TV shows and listens to everyone's music. How does he find the time? What are the chances Jimmy REALLY loved the new album? Tom Waits is over his head. And at least Johnny Carson never told you he liked your stuff if he really didn't.
You guys weren't joking, huh? The sporadic laughing, hyperactive behaviour would make it seem Jimmy had fallen on magic mushrooms before this interview.
'....the only people qualified to run the country are driving cabs and cutting hair...' aside from the music, performance (understatement!!) love this man!!!! amazing. our old blues masters might be gone, but this man carries us on. thanks for this one!! he's in rare form.
The worst part about any jimmy fallon interview on youtube is that nobody actually comments on what the guest has to say because they're too busy hating on fallon
The joke at 1:15 went right over Fallon's head. He was pointing at how people like cabbies and barbers run their mouths about what's wrong with this or that situation - and what should be done instead - as if they've got it all figured out. And they spend their whole day telling everyone they meet (i.e. "solving the world's problems)". Fallon giggled and clapped and then said "Yeh... Isn't that amazing, right? I agree with you. [then, thinking he suddenly understood it, his tone picked up, and he started clapping and giggling] Hehehe! I absolutely I agree with that!" But... Waits was being sardonic. I can only imagine that awkward moment where Waits knew it would be more embarrassing to stop and explain. You can actually see Waits take a drink and look off to his right and then stare off at the floor ahead to allow the moment to pass and save both of them from further embarrassment.
That's because Fallon has no idea how to converse intelligently. He's got no idea how to talk to this man. Waits is someone who steeps himself deep in americana and history and politics, he reads about culture and philosophy. He's an intelligent, well read, well travelled man. Fallon on the other hand is a comedian. And he's not a very good comedian either. He has no idea how to really entertain, he just reads his script and says the funny haha words and occasionally makes little quips that he thinks are intelligent zingers. He's out of his depth on this show and far out of his league trying to trade jokes with Waits. He's embarrassing himself up there. He reminds me of a little yappy dog. Like a little, fluffy yappy mutt that gets way too excited and you worry he's gonna widdle on the carpet.
So much unnecessary hate I guess that's all the comment section is for. Clearly you can read minds and know exactly what was going through Fallon's head ... even if hes not on same the level of intelligence as Tom.. so what? You think Tom Waitts would speak like this about Fallon? I doubt it... hed probably think you are a piece of shit talking about a guy you don't even know like this it's kinda sad really you probably go through your whole life acting like you just stepped in a heaping pile of dog crap just looking for a reason to snap off on someone for something you don't like about them.
@@butternjelly2787 Now I understand why this was Banned, I've search on Google, Trying to find out why, just read the comments, see how this was total mess, the cope... the seethe. Great Moment. Rare History.
Yeah you can tell by the tone of Jimmy Fallon's voice he was nervous & very excited to meet Tom Waits hell I would be too the man is brilliant & a legend.
+Joe Malburg Yea its really early into Late Night I think. He makes a comment about the set, like the show just started, and he's certainly acting like it. Nice to see how much better he's gotten.

Jimmys a Virgo, they can be quite nervous and neurotic . Too self conscious and critical and in their head and introverted. Toms a rising and Sun in Sagittarius more extraverted and cool/fun
+MindMeme A lot of his guests make the show good, as long as it's about them. Perfect solution would be guests interacting and interviewing eachother without him.
wow...a vinyl LP. Haven't seen one of those for a while...I know I still have a number of 'em in my garage takin' up space. Gotta get a turntable one day and relive the past.
Strange, but Tom gets along well with Jimmy. They like each other, even though many of the comments here are not too favourable to Fallon. Tom is not an easy interview and if he doesn't like you you're doomed. His answers in other interviews often don't make any sense (on purpose), but Jimmy's lucky that Tom likes him.
Jesus Fallon is awful. This is the first time Ive actually watched him interview some and the reason I did was for Tom Waits and that silly hack ruined. Haha yea furniture haha yeah the hall haha giggle giggle.
Tom Waits was Heath Ledger's inspiration for the role of Joker in The Dark Knight. If you watch the interview from 1979, it's amazing, how much he sounds like Joker.
I spent a night in the downtown YMCA in Chicago twenty years ago and the room was chalk full of cockroaches. I'm from a cold climate and had never had that experience before. I love a cold climate, warm whiskey and Tom's song about a girl from Minneapolis.
Well if you don't like furniture, you probably like waits. Old at twelve, young at 30, Waits is a psychological, monster of macabre reason. No midnight train, alone, waiting at the station...walk home and hum a tune. Ten miles of humming can make a man crazy. Dogs snapping, guns pointed, police asking, ten miles, and a new tune. The dark is the life behind the iron curtain of sunset.
I have been a huge fan of Waits for almost 20 years now. He has always been in my top three of Tool, Tom Waits and The Velvet Underground. Let me ask you, is that comment you wrote completely original? Because I searched through Google and found nothing even close, so I assume that you just made it up right here on the spot. Either that or you had written it somewhere in real life and had just never bothered with posting it anywhere online. Either way, if that is your original writing, then I have to commend you. It is very, very good. I'd say that you managed to capture Waits as perfectly as you could in so few words. My only complaint is that it isn't longer and more detailed. And that is not a criticism of the quality, but rather a celebration of it, in that it leaves me wanting to hear more. I'd love for you to reply back so I could have a little dialogue with you.
I've seen this fool Fallon many times and thought how is this clown on TV, and this farcical interview was painful, I'm surprised Tom never walked out.
Tom Waits is the coolest man on the planet EVER....but what the hell is he doing on the fallon show? Guess even the coolest man ever has to sell some product....

Right
Talk about overpaid
Good thing Tom is brilliant- he carried this entire interview (and that's not even his job). Jimmy Fallon is extremely hard to watch.
Agreed
In fairness, he carries every interview. That's what you get when you have Tom Waits on.
Yeah. Jimmy reminds me of people I knew in the 80's who constantly did cocaine. They would shout, scream and couldn't sit still for a second.
He IS hard to watch. But to be fair, I think he was trying to impress Tom. I'm afraid, most people would try to do the same.
Fallon needs medication
Jimmy Fallon is in the way and should just leave. Tom can interview himself

He was in the films Taxi, Doogal and Factory Girl. And yeah he was on SNL and enjoyed looking at the camera while laughing at his own "jokes".
I’ve never seen someone so anxious
Love watching his interviews..odd, funny guy.
I adore Tommasino...
That may the most vacuous interview in history.

Fucking Brilliant. Tom is a genius. Full Stop.
Watch a clip of Tom Waits when he is younger - he sounds and looks just like Heath's Joker!
Musician , actor, and could easily also be a stand up comedian.
He really is underated as an actor although he did get an Academy Award nomination .
Tom Waits just needs to host his own talk show.
It started badly (anxious host) but towards the end, they flowed well.
Genius. Tom mucks around and has fun.
Letterman does it every time. The fact that Fallon still has a career after Taxi is astounding. Probably just because no one saw it.
