Awesomeness to the max. I saw him in the big circus tent on his first night in Dublin. They performed this song near the end when it had started raining and you could hear the rain hammering the tent. It made a fantastic sound which added a whole new dimension to this song. I had to walk for an hour back to my hotel after the show in the pouring rain all the time thinking of this song and how Waits truely made it rain :D
Tom planed it like that. I saw Bob Dylan play hard rain in the pouring rain, 30 minutes back to My Car. Saw Neil Young perform "Be the Rain" Let It Rain.
Ok, ég veit að þetta comment er búið að vera til síðan ég var sirka 6 ára, en ég er nýlega búinn að finna Tom Waits og þessi plata er komin í uppáhald. Skemmtilegt að sjá Íslending á toppnum á comment section 10 árum síðar

One of the master's greatest songs. And what an awesome version! Love the way he changed the rythmic section, givin' to it a certain groove that wasn't present in the original version! Amazing! I wonder if he'll ever come to south America... My greatest dream would come true!
2008? Or was it 2006? I saw him in Atlanta in 2006 right before I left for good and he opened with this song and it was a religious experience practically
