- Tom Waits Interviews from "The Beauty of The Mysterious," a Robert Wilson ARTE Documentary
Watch the full video: • Robert Wilson ARTE Doc...
Tom Waits sat down for a rare interview to talk about the stage director Robert Wilson in the recent French/German ARTE documentary; "The Beauty of the Mysterious".
Waits has collaborated with Wilson in three theatre plays; The Black Rider (1990), Alice (1992) and Woyzeck (2000). This interview is a retrospective on that collaboration.
Waits wrote the music for these plays and later featured some of the music in arrangements recorded for the studio albums; The Black Rider (1993) (from the play of the same name), Alice (2002) (from the play of the same name) and Blood Money (2002) (from the play Woyzeck).
About "The Beauty of The Mysterious":
"We look back at more than half a century of mysterious artistic creation while trying to crack a unique artistic code. Why are people moved to tears when Robert “Bob” Wilson puts minimalistic petrol pumps into a production of Shakespeare’s sonnets? Why does merciless repetition change our understanding of something? Together with Tom Waits, Willem Dafoe or Marina Abramović we trace back our own experience of Bob’s art. Is it true what Philipp Glass the collaborator of the milestone piece “Einstein on the Beach” laughingly and with apparent pleasure exclaims “what does it mean? It doesn’t mean anything!”?"

38 years I've loved tom waits..as an australian girl of 15 i was considered weird i never cared,him and kathleen r my hero's..i can't imagine life without tom's music
Nor should you . Tom is a genius
Agreed. I feel lucky to be on this planet at the same time.
そう言うのを世間では、ませがきと呼ぶ😊
I've only known of him for 22 years . I can relate to his words personally.
Same. I was lucky enough to see him in Prague on his last tour…!
Jeez its good to see Tom. His silence and privacy are his business, but its good to know he's all good.
He may be hiding some Parkinson symptoms.....?
@@juleslaabs9808 he’s always rocked like that when being interviewed. So I don’t think so. Hope not.
@@OlafProt TY
There is no one like tom Waits. I am grateful to have seen him live twice. I will never forget them.
Hear, hear! Saw him at the Bridge School Benefit, with Larry Taylor & the Kronos Quartet, and was blessed to see The Black Rider theatrical production in Los Angeles... unforgettable, both occasions!
Much more difficult: first time in Florence 1999, and then in Milan 2008.
I drove 800 miles and caught a felony possession charge crossing state borders to see Tom perform in El Paso. No regrets
Lucky you....
Tom sums it all up there at the end - "He's creating all the conditions for dreaming."
I know a lot of people don't like the Black Ryder but I remember when it came out and it just blew me away! Like every other Tom Waits record before it I wore that thing out!! There's some great songs there and it's completely unique!
You're absolutely right!
The Black Rider is very special.
every time i witness MrWaits or listen to him, he transports me to quite a different World
Tom Waits is such a cult of personality, will always love his music and art. One of the first songs I ever heard by him was "Anywhere I lay my head" off of the Rain Dogs album, and his singing was so wild and insane I thought for sure it was supposed to be a joke and it hooked me to listen to the whole CD. to this day it is still one of my favorite albums out there
Downtown Train, got me hooked when I was 16, and Rain Dogs is one of my favourite albums of all time.
It's hard to choose one favorite Tom Waits album, but you've chosen wisely.
“He’s creating all of the conditions for dreaming!” I love this! Brilliant interview by my beloved Tom Waits! 💜🌙
The fella always had an extraordinary way with words.
@@lootwijk So true! 💜🌙
"It's got to be made out of something." Man, I love listening to Tom Waits
❤❤
I saw The Black Rider at the New York Theater Fringe Festival in 1999. I still get goosebumps thinking about it.
beautiful moving hommage , thanks so much . nothing more moving than the recognition of someone 's gifts , coming from someone I admire so much
I'll never forget a few years ago I was busking at Andy's produce in Sebastopol CA and Tom Waits Stopped for a minute to listen. He was there shopping with I'm guessing his wife. I didn't recognize him but when I took a break a man at a table near where I was playing said "Hey that was Tom Waits".
I listen to Tom daily, have since I first heard Pasties when Small Change came out - I was 12 at the time and in Cleveland we had a great radio station WWWM M105 which was well known for playing music the mainstream channels wouldn't or couldn't play (If 6 was a 9 comes to mind also from that era and channel). So I begged my mother to take me to the record store so I could buy Small Change with money I was saving in of course my piggy bank. I still have that album today and cherish it.
Tom plays Zachariah in Seven Psychopaths and just kills it. You just have to watch him in the "Fishing with John" video too! A brilliant engineer of entertainment Tom is.
Whenever Tom's name comes up I just can't help but wonder, "What's he building in there?"
He is a great actor as well isn't he..loved him in 7 psychopaths
To be honest I never heard of Bob Wilson before, but now I’m very interested. When Tom Waits admire someone I’d be a fool not to pay close attention since I love Waits work.
Robert Wilson: Einstein on the Beach is probably his most famous production, a landmark of experimental theater and probably one of the most influential avant-garde works in history.
@@CharlesLaughlin Thank you for the information. I appreciate it.
Whoever runs this channel, Tom or a manager, keep up the great work. I love seeing all these obscure and sometimes forgotten video clips, bits and bobs of the man
Mr. Tom Waits please come to Toronto Canada
❤❤❤
Legend
Thank you.😊
Tom Waits, is a true artist. I take everything he says in high regard.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Guau! esto lo reservo para ver a la noche con tiempo. Fan de Tom desde Argentina💗
My greatest musical regret is never seeing Tom perform live. The Warsaw concert on TH-cam I’ve seen was brilliant
Don't know if it's comforting, but NOBODY has seen Tom Waits live 🙃
From russia i was there in warshawa in 2000 i dont believe even now
@@njits789 I have. Three times.
@@ClockwiseCat I saw him once in Antwerp on his Real Gone "tour". I say "tour" as it comprised no more than 8 shows (or just 7?) in whole Europe. Our venue seated about 900 people. It was the second time ever and the last time since he performed in my country.
Also, I wrote 'nobody saw him live' as an hyperbole. I thought it would sit nicely in a Tom Waits commentary section. But let me refrase: virtually nobody saw him live in my country.
@@njits789 He needs to tour more. He did not even tour on the back of Bad as Me. I guess he finds touring tedious. I would too, but he's not getting any younger!
Good to see Tom again haven't seen him walking around town for a while he must be busy... whether he knows it or not, he inspired me to quit smoking cigarettes, among other things
The enigmatic Tom Waits!! Love you Tom!
Great artist ❤
For me, it's the true to life dramatics in T.Waits soundscape and lyrics that is profoundly appealing
I remember finding this cassette of "the Black Rider"... wondering if this was a real theatrical event. Sometimes living in the US is awful isolating. You wouldn't see a clip of this here. That's the sad part. But there IS a lot of space. A lot of blank pages to fill up with something. If you can tend to it, maybe it won't be an ugly thing. I've never seen high art in a strip mall... well, not intentionally. The line Tom just said, whether intentional or not. Saying it takes a lot out of you "you lose a lot of hair! But you know, it has to be made from SOMETHING!" I'm assuming hair. Thanks for that.
Tom is a treasure 🖤
Love you Tom ❤
Merci beaucoup! "You're innocent when you dream" Why doesn't Tom move next door to me?! Nothing like this astonishing show ever comes to the boring place I am stuck in- why don't I move- well check out the lyrics to "I Don't Wanna Grow Up"- that sort of jazz. I was reminded of Amanda Palmer in her Dresden Doll days and of when she played a living statue, a bride handing out flowers to make some "bread". At my age I decided to retrieve an old wedding dress from the attic- a thrift shop purchase because I had this Waits-ian idea for the curtains around an as yet unpurchased canopy bed- yeah I get some of those scathing brilliant ideas too but my partner isn't tolerant like Kathleen so I figured well Iive a block from a park. I"ll get some kabuki make-up, a long white wig and make a box and add some Victorian touches to the dress and steal some flowers and ta da! scare the kids as Dickens' Miss Haversham.... Love you Tom. Spent the morning playing Mule Variations...Falsetto! You can call me anytime collect! Namaste from Ontario, Canada
Jak nie kochać Toma (niemożliwe ) ❤
He played an excellent character in The Balled of Buster Scruggs.
Having ADHD I enjoy his spontaneous creativity! ❤
Frank's Wild years, swordfish trombones and Rain Dogs....the 80's. I dj'd Friday nights 8pm in Germany. Heard and played " Downtown Train"...I predicted it a Total Hit. Got a phone call from a tourbus on the Autobahn. Within 6 months Rod Stewart put that song in the top 40.
My piano has been drinking not me.
#1 Song of His Life
Priceless 🎉🎉🎉
Not even close, look and hear deeper than cheap dime store novels. These plays and the songs attached therein.
@@IndianaSmallmouth it's my first song I listened to from Tom.
Tom Is Excellent.
Thank you.
Tom,how are you.looks good.i glad to see you.
Tom Waits ❤
Tom saw ya in Atlanta on Glitter and Doom. Took a shuttle to a plane, bowered a car crossed state lines then caught a cab. Worth every penny my friend.
Saw Tom at the Palais and Dallas Brooks Hall in the 70s Theatrical and Awesome…He didn’t care much for Melbourne audiences had to prompt ‘em for applause and recognition …
Anyone know the aprox date of the interview?
Cool 😎
😊❤
He wrote a song about my small hometown of now 6k people. Johnsburg, IL.
Long live eccentrics like Tom!
❤
how recent is this??
🤘🤘👍👍
He now looks like a Science Teacher from the 1950's, suits him....
T.W ❤❤❤
Very confusing editing. Love Tom Waits.
I am far too dumb to appreciate this type of art.
Delightful dreaming
i guess ive been gone for a while...
i guess it takes just a smile
love repeated falls to the reaper
If I could ask Tom Waits one question I think it would be this. ---> Why're you like that?
Who is this Bob he keeps referring to? 🤔
It's in the title. Robert Wilson.
@martine.210
I thought it might be.
That's not him narrating is it?
I'd always thought Tom met Kathleen in Berlin while he was touring there. And she introduced him to Thruppeny opra, and thus Swordfish Trombones was created.
Not sure where I read or heard this but it's quite a popular version here in England.
@@Zubareffstream111 They met on the set for "One From the Heart" the musical Tom did the music for. Sadly Bette Midler did not take the part...
How in hell did T.W get famous in the U.S...!?
He´s so intelligent, so his own, and never conformed to the bigottery of the so called "American dream"
He is pure inspiration!
Political comment disregarded
@@FLAM1nWaffl3x What comments are left then? He dared to think, do you?
I’m not American and I’ve been a declared fan of his for about 3 decades, so I don’t know if I’m in a position to say anything, but I still will, of course. Any country has weaknesses and strengths. One of the American weaknesses is the fear of opinions, often labelled “political”, as if that was a bad thing.
It seems present even in this thread. I want to cancel the cancellers. This type of people probably are so limited they don’t understand that Tom Waits is so much more than funny and weird, so they haven’t discovered they must hate him. But America also has so much more than limiting naysayers.
There is room for so many good thoughts and new ideas. If anyone can dream up a topic, there’s probably a whole scene devoted to it somewhere in the US. People deeply interested and willing to go all the way to really understand. This multitude is a wonderful strength of America. Not the only one, but one I love. think this is how Tom succeeded, helped by the people smart enough to be curious and to see i diamond in the raw. I live in Amsterdam, where there’s some of that same multitude.
On that note, I see this quality being under attack all over the world, perhaps even more in the US than here. A certain ex president is spreading the poison of lies and intolerance. Selfishness is presented as not shameful anymore. Well, it is shameful! That’s one of many images one might read out of Tom Waits’ music.
@@FLAM1nWaffl3x don't care about you (to be continued in the song of "Guns and Roses"...)
He didn’t
1:48. Stop everything. Someone cast Christopher Nell to star in a biopic of Jochen Rindt.
Why is he shaking?
Maybe it's the room that's shaking not him.
@@reginaldside4575 Maybe the room has been drinking....
Alexa! play Tom Waits music
Mine always starts out with I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
@@pauljojo6855 & my hope is "Singapore"
What up w the tiny chair
wow its like talking to God
"Promo sm"
Tom Waits is the only thing that causes me to believe in the possibility of a God.
What's he doing in there...................
i love tom waits but the masked zombies at seven minutes turns me off any available inspiration
My ears can barley hear this low frequency
It really gotta be made outta somethin'.
Какой Бобби стал старый и какие все пластмассовые (пластические)...
Is this an insider story who is bob? 😂
Robert Wilson, theatre director, artist, video maker, loads of stuff
Robert Wilson. He worked with Tom on Black Rider, Alice and Woyzeck. He's the guy sitting next to Stefan Kurt in the restaurant and also in front of the curtain reading "I rise up and I walk with myself".
is Tom letting go?
I love Tom very much, but I wish he would stop dying his hair.
hes been dying it since the 1980s!
this clip is boring me to tears with slow talkers
Tom waits is getting old....that means we're getting old...
If there’s one musician I wish I’d seen live
VENITE PARA ARGENTINA TOM🇦🇷
When did Tom Waits turn into Keith Richards?
First recordings with keith Richards i know is that rain dogs Album. It's fantastic, from 1985.
Found some interesting Interviews from Tom waits about working with keith. Look out for it on TH-cam.
