love his music but had always thought he would be a grouchy 'artiste' - but watching some of these clips, he has such a sharp surreal sense of humour, not scared of sending himself up and all the funnier for the deadpan delivery
I always figured he'd be a grumpy guy but was pleasantly surprised to find he's quite the opposite of that. He's wickedly funny in an unexpected way. A cool eccentric person.
I was born in 88, and raised on Tom Waits. Swordfish Trombones was one of the first CDs I ever owned, and I own a vinyl first pressing of Rain Dogs, which is not a cheap album to own. I have been aware of the man's sheer brilliance as a true artist, showman, comedian, and wonderful human being, since before I can remember. Tom Waits is my spirit animal... Tom Waits, hallowed be thy name...
Huge Tom and Letterman fan...but I am absolutely mind blown with 1) How amazing the engineering was that I couldn't see, and 2) He brought this on to Letterman??? Amazingly hilarious and brilliant men the both of them.
Random celebrity guest: "I want to be on your show to talk about my forgettable movie that's coming out and my latest marriage that will last a month" Dave: " *sigh* Fine. I guess so." Tom Waits: "Dave, I've got an archaic rat trap and an anecdote about jogging." Dave: "Abso-fuckin'-lutely! Get over here you beautiful man!"
I can imagine somebody using that rat trap to its full capability, recording it and then posting the video to TH-cam. That person would have to go into hiding afterward.
Bruh... He should be a stand-up comedian, he would be one of the greatest stand up comedians out there... he just rolls with it.... dang ... that’s ____ tho.
I saw David Lynch bring a mouse trap he built on a talk show once but I do like antiques so it's hard to pick a favourite. I think Dave responded to Toms trap better than the other host did to Davids and that's unfortunate since he did build it himself.
He was actually a big influence in heath ledger in regards to his mannerisms and voice, check out an interview he did for an Australian chat show in 1979 to hear what is essentially the joker speaking!
Boy, his voice is about shot. The whiskey-and-cigarettes gravel thing was always forced with him anyway, and now he's got no lower register at all. Soon he'll be in Jack Klugman territory. Great artist, though.

Anyone else here from the Heath Ledger documentary? For those who aren't, apparently, Tom Waits style and mannerisms in this particular interview were an inspiration for Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker. Here's a link if you want to check it out. It's worth a watch: th-cam.com/video/XhWvFQaz9hk/w-d-xo.html
All of David letterman,s freebie records must be knackered for how he treated them, always banging them on his desk like a notepad .....I can imagine .... corner wear edge wear ...shame
This is the best episode of Antiques Roadshow that I've ever seen!
OP, I couldn't agree more.

♪ There's always free cheddar in a mouse trap, baby, it's a deal! It's a deal!
A few guests are so good with Dave, the chemistry and respect is palpable and I live them both.
"Henry Ford's dying breath." got me dead.
How many must die?
😱😩😫
A great musician, and a great comedian.
I like his interviews almost as much as his music!
Check out coffee and cigarettes, you will die laughtin:)
Yeah, me too. They're both a pretentious load of shite.
@@tommanserable You can call Waits' music anything but pretentious. At least put some effort in your trolling.
Yeah, just like people who say shite instead of shit? Do you prefer shoppe to shop to? Twat. Watching interviews to talk shit in the comments
His episodes ARE his music. The things he conveys in interviews intertwine with his music
love his music but had always thought he would be a grouchy 'artiste' - but watching some of these clips, he has such a sharp surreal sense of humour, not scared of sending himself up and all the funnier for the deadpan delivery

When he started describing how it functioned it almost started to sound like one of his spoken word songs.
Tom has a delightful sense of humour. He's one of my favourite people in music.
Huge Tom and Letterman fan...but I am absolutely mind blown with 1) How amazing the engineering was that I couldn't see, and 2) He brought this on to Letterman??? Amazingly hilarious and brilliant men the both of them.
Tom waits is my role model. He is his own person and looks at life so different and imaginative.
I love Tom Waits - he has a cool part in The Book of Eli with Denzel Washington, funny guy !
Damn, great movie and i havnt seen it in years and ive only recently started being aware of Tom Waits. Definitely my next movie night pick
He's even better in Mystery Men. Very funny
When Dave says I have one just like it and Waits smirks. You can tell he appreciates him. The wit is uncanny. Real recognises real.
@THE NEW HOUSE Jealousy. Lol You wish. Loser.
I just love this guy ...he s a great figure
I was watching him on a late late show in Ireland an interview from 1981
What’s he BUILDING in there...?
We have a right to know...
He seems a lot more outgoing these days. In the early interviews I've seen of him he's quite shy and reserved.
Seriously, he's not nearly as weird as he once was, still makes fantastic music though
guitarman64100 he's sobered up
Sirun B when I was drinking I was out there...I still drink but now I drink more...
He was very self medicated
I think he has just learned to play off his anxiety
He is a born salesman. hehe
Some people are born legends.
Best episode of antiques roadshow ever
2nd time I’ve seen Tom wear that jacket on Letterman.
Möbius Strip nicely done
I want a friend like Tom
Love his music in kids videos!💝
Tom Waits and his new Artifact!
Random celebrity guest: "I want to be on your show to talk about my forgettable movie that's coming out and my latest marriage that will last a month"
Dave: " *sigh* Fine. I guess so."
Tom Waits: "Dave, I've got an archaic rat trap and an anecdote about jogging."
Dave: "Abso-fuckin'-lutely! Get over here you beautiful man!"
What an interesting man.
Ava Thompson and to award for the greatest understatement of 2015 goes toooooo
Ava Thompson we all become artifacts, depends what mirror we are looking in,?, Irish des.des is for descent,so I'm told.thanks for your time., !
They are fantastic together
“It’s simple We kill the Batman”
dang man, awesome link there
I LOVE TOM WAITS ABSOLUTE GENIUS !
Same as 😎👍
its crazy the difference between him now and him back in the day
Yeah... just saw an interview of him from 1979. Man... it's like another person.
Love his style...
I just watched Tom on Late Night, with Jimmie Falon. He's wearing the same clothes and promoting 'Bad as Me.'
Making the rounds.
🐭
I can imagine somebody using that rat trap to its full capability, recording it and then posting the video to TH-cam. That person would have to go into hiding afterward.
Still keeping up the pretence 50 years in
The real Joker!
As Real as Any Joker.Whom pursues Music/Entertainment..Gr8'Way to think of Tom Waits..good 1.
All these videos and I haven't heard Tom sing yet!
Tom Waits is a master mind.
Tom needs to do a podcast before it's too late.
If only there was a larger version of the rat trap for politicians.
Sure, I understand why it was sold at a music store.
I was waiting for him to reveal the mouthpiece and play it like a recorder. This did not occur. 😕
love this man
Bruh... He should be a stand-up comedian, he would be one of the greatest stand up comedians out there... he just rolls with it.... dang ... that’s ____ tho.
this was my first introduction to Tom.
A true artist
"The last thing I bought on Ebay was the last dying breath of Henry Ford.""
He's a cool guy, a very few others are as cool in the world. 😄😄
Holy shit... Heath Ledger totally based his Joker off this guy
Diabolically clever!!!
Such a stark difference compared to the interview with fallon about the same album
Available on Amazon or Macy's just for the Holiday Season. $29.95 . Get one while supplies last. HA !
Brilliant
That rat trap has 'Tom Waits' written all over it.
Someone in the 1800s had a vision...
“Jamaicans on grass” hahahahahaha
that was fascinating as fuck
I saw David Lynch bring a mouse trap he built on a talk show once but I do like antiques so it's hard to pick a favourite. I think Dave responded to Toms trap better than the other host did to Davids and that's unfortunate since he did build it himself.
Waits is a Tomcat though the best ones kill rats and mice for you.
Looks like the joker, from batman, without the makeup on in his earlier days!!!
He was actually a big influence in heath ledger in regards to his mannerisms and voice, check out an interview he did for an Australian chat show in 1979 to hear what is essentially the joker speaking!
Oh you saw the link on Reddit too?
Ian Mayhem Dunno what you mean, but it's true.
9Gag
Tom Waits is literally The Joker..
Boy, his voice is about shot. The whiskey-and-cigarettes gravel thing was always forced with him anyway, and now he's got no lower register at all. Soon he'll be in Jack Klugman territory. Great artist, though.
You have to go back to find this
he reminds me of a little blind mouse
inspiration fot the Joker (Dark Night)????
fun fact he was the inspiration forheath ledger's performance

@83rdox - He's channeling Tom.
One stop shopping 😆
Not me....not me.
Rats are people!! Some PETA members are screaming right? Lmao
Heath ledger's inspiration for the joker.
Really?
Bull
Makes me regret I like the music... Like watching Jim Henson/Tim Burton rolled into one, do dull a Carrot Top bit
Tim Henson/Jim Burton
I amuse myself
At least you amuse someone.
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs ;)
David, be careful with that record

Very Niemann Marcus Stylish dude!!!!!! not archived shit.
He's in the Rock and roll Hall Of Fame? I don't get it.
It used to be good back then.
Frank Sinatra and Michael Madsen had a baby.
I Miss David Letterman..
And Love Tom Waits
All of David letterman,s freebie records must be knackered for how he treated them, always banging them on his desk like a notepad .....I can imagine .... corner wear edge wear ...shame
fore-runner of the Havahart trap (google it)
Where is the fucking park with the salad?
*part
Rather high......
who was playing the piano afterwards/
Paul Schaeffer, the late show bandleader
Hes a scream
Moe Sizzlac
Yeah but how many rat catchers lost their jobs because of this?
Tom waits music
37Dionysos - One.
🅗🅐🅗🅐🅗🅐
I find Tom Waits sounds a little bit late Steve-O from Jackass
Steve O sounds like a higher pitched, more nasally, Waits.
I hope AOC never sees this.
....why?
Big swing and a miss.
sa
David... the plague was 200 years previous to the 1800s 🤣
Plague still exists today. Fleas carry it
@@embelslishments If you're talking about the bubonic plague it's still around. A couple in Mongolia caught it last month from eating a marmot
Heath Ledger’s Batman voice is clearly a Tom Waite impression.
*No*
