Downtown Train - LIVE - BEST Version (Official Audio) Tom Waits New Edit 

Man....what I wouldn't give to spend an evening in a bar drinking Guiness with Tom Waits on stage. The very definition of paradise.

A poet. There is Tom. There is no one remotely like him.

It is a thing of beauty. Thank you Tom Waits. Your song, delivered your way.

Been lucky in my 62 years to have witnessed so many great artists like Waits, Cohen and Dylan none of whom are real singers but by god can they write a classic and deliver it better than anyone else. Great to hear such a good recording too.

A good 18 years single malt with a girl by my side in a bar with Waits playing this!

The late great Larry Taylor on Bass!

One of my favorite performers. He is in my opinion the most "original" artist out there.

A bass, two guitars, a man with a hat, and a whole universe

His voice brings out one’s core inside out. He’ll touch your inner self and stir it. It hurts but it’s damn good!

Been listening to Tom since 1974, still the best lyrical threader about, need to cast a shadow down under again!! Sooo good!!

what a powerful rendition of this classic

The better voice and song writer of all time, a huge genius.

A wonderful voice, feeling, passion, sentiment and empathy all rolled into one musical piece of perfection.

A unique interpretation of the Rod Stewart classic ❤

Outside another yellow moon Has punched a hole in the nighttime mist I climb through the window and down to the street I'm shining like a new dime The downtown trains are full Full of all them Brooklyn girls They try so hard to break out of their little worlds You wave your hand and they scatter like crows They have nothing that'll ever capture your heart They're just thorns without the rose Be careful of them in the dark Oh, if I was the one you chose to be your only one Oh, baby Can't you hear me now? Can't you hear me now? Will I see you tonight on a downtown train? Every night, every night it's just the same On a downtown train I know your window and I know it's late I know your stairs and your doorway I walk down your street and past your gate I stand by the light of the four way And watch them as they fall, oh baby They all having their heart attacks They stay at the carnival But they'll never win you back Will I see you tonight on a downtown train? Every night, every night, it's just the same You leave me lonely Will I see you tonight on a downtown train? All my dreams, all my dreams fall like rain On a downtown train Will I see you tonight on a downtown train? Every night, every night, it's just the same Will I see you tonight on a downtown train? All my dreams, all my dreams, fall like rain On a downtown train On a downtown train All my dreams fall like rain On a downtown train Songwriters: Thomas Alan Waits / Kathleen Brennan Downtown Train lyrics © Jalma Music

Great quality!! I need to find the story part of this as well.

Thank you for uploading this. Perfect performance of such a great song.

Greatness

U are still the most extreme original artist out there. I love the scratchy throat, your inflections, your props, your voice, your expresdions, your longing. I left so much more out but I want to listen, finger stop!

Brilliant. 😊

I bet that was a fantastic concert. Genius.

punched a hole in my heart

He's great in The Dead Don't Die movie as hermit Bob.

Would love to see him live but tickets are so hard to come by, all the musicians want to go to see how you do it 👍

Fabulous

Waits l'ha scritta e Rod Stewart in primis e Waits poi con le royalties ci hanno fatto i soldi Immensa l'originale, ma molto bella e ben fatta la cover di Rod The Mod

For those that do not know, Tom had a partner in musical excellence. Please explore Chuck E Weiss, from the great "Chuck E's in LOve," tune by ? I live in DEnver, Chuck and his brother lived here. Please check out Chuck.

Clear throat .

It was is

I'll never understand why playing live, the artists change the songs.. In the original record, the guitar is incredibly beautiful.. Here, the guitar is close to the ridiculous.. What a pity

El sonido de las calles, de las prostitutas en las esquinas, de trenes que pasan por las vías elevadas, de los cubos de basuras, de los yonkis que te piden unas monedas, de una mujer maltratada gritando en injurias a su marido, del neón que se apaga después de ese eterno último trago, de la niebla que escupen los respiraderos del del metro: el sonido de la esperanza perdida.

The Springsteen of brooklyn. cool guitar. overplayed but nice tone. ty

what the hell? 1:19

Me gusta muchísimo mas con mi bellisimo Rod steward

Tom waits might not want to converse.so what?you maybe wouldn't like the fella..be yourself and stick.

Very good performance and a beautiful song. But I still prefer Bob Seger's version.

Rod made it better, let’s be honest.

This guy cannot sing.

Hello Mr. Pocket. 😂
