How can any human being create a thing like this? It sounds like it has been there forever, as if it was a present from Earth itself. Too beautiful to put into words. Tom Waits: thank you, sincerely.
"You can never hold back spring" (Lyrics) you can never hold back spring you can be sure I will never stop believing the blushing rose that will climb spring ahead or fall behind winter dreams the same dream every time baby you can never hold back spring even though you've lost your way the world is dreaming dreaming of spring so close your eyes open your heart to the one who's dreaming of you you can never hold back spring remember everything that spring can bring baby you can never hold back spring.
My wife walked down the aisle to this song (she chose the song). Our wedding was in our backyard and we were our own DJ, so there were many Tom Waits tunes on our playlists. Truly a timeless artist with so much heart!
My Daughter has done many wonderful things, among the most wonderful was allowing me to have this song played for our first dance at her wedding. Yup, stole the scene straight out of the movie. No one had heard the song, and most didn't know who Tom Waits was... and I didn't care one bit. Truly an unforgettable time, one of the top moments of my life.
I love this.... My father died in June of 2010 (coming up on 4 years) and one of the things I wish I had done with him before his passing was dance at my wedding (even though, my marriage didn't withstand the years). What a beautiful memory you have with your daughter, and to such a beautiful, precious and wise song. You are a lucky man.
1st time I heard it I knew that's the only song I'd ever want to dance to on that day, glad someone else thought so and I'm jealous you've had that moment!
my 1st song at my wedding, for the first dance with my wife that is, was Shiny Things. this one was in the mix too and it was a special night of course ;)
This is the song I want to be played at my funeral .. I'm only 17 but I'm sure, sure that Tom Waits already has added so much to my life, I couldn't imagine a life without his music. Thank you Tom!
This guys voice just has something special about it that I can't find the words to describe. Powerful, dark, beautiful, spiritual.. all of those things and much more. Magic
Tom Auton brought me here.. if you see this. I love the rain dogs album. My ears have heard it since I was a child. So much so that my heart can sing it to me without the music. This one is beautiful. Thank you 😊 peace.
So many themes in this song. I used as our wedding march song, like the beginning of The Tiger and the Snow. I couldn't help but dream that Tom would show up to play, as he did for Begnini!
I was standing in the room with a broken heart, looking out the window at the sunshine breaking through the branches od trees, and my brother suddenly put on this song...and for no reason at all, tears started falling like 10 seconds into the song. Will never forget that. Too much beauty, Mr. Waits...
This sweet old woman at burlesque show blew my mind to this song. It was such a sweet song. I held back tears the whole time. She killed it. Happy 420!💃🙏
Age has nothing to do with appreciation for music. You can be 10 and love Tom Waits or 80 and like Katy Perry. all I know is Tom Waits is brilliant and magical.
The best one ever, ORPHANS - Brawlers, Bawlers, Bastards. Shame he stopped drinking but maybe it was just the piano. Saw him at a small venue in London many moons ago, accompanied by a bottle of bourbon, me not him, though he might have had one too. It was pure magic, have seen all my old heros, Bruce, Shane, Jarvis, Marianne, Patti, Lenny Al Jolson etc etc etc but Mr Waits has got to be the best! Am just about to go down Fannin Street. Met Old Tom Frost in Dublin but that's another story.
First dance at my Daughters wedding... Tom wrote this for us, for she is truly one of the most beautiful people in the world... She has always been like spring to me. Love!
Life has been shite of late but when I walk through bluebell woods, just outside my cottage with the grandchildren, words could never be so true. Spring is magical and bursting out, I can hear the cuckoo as I write. Am also watching the little ones sleep, 'innocent while they dream'. Mr Tom does dreams so well and leaves pictures in your mind when dreams are gone. Dream on, folks.
You can never hold back spring You can be sure that I will never stop believing,The blushing rose will climb, Spring ahead or fall behind, Winter dreams the same dreame every time, Baby you can never hold back spring Even though you've lost your way The world is dreaming,dreaming of spring So close your eyes,Open your heart To one who's dreaming of you and you can never hold back spring Remember everything that spring can bring - You can never hold back spring
You can never hold back spring You can be sure that I will never Stop believing The blushing rose will climb Spring ahead or fall behind Winter dreams the same dream Every time You can never hold back spring Even though you've lost your way The world keeps dreaming of spring So close your eyes Open you heart To one who's dreaming of you You can never hold back spring Baby Remember everything that spring Can bring You can never hold back spring
Just when i´m about to think i´ve heard all the good songs, i discover another pearl from Mr. Tom Waits. The last time was "On the nickel" and before was "A sight for sore eyes" (which i never seen in youtube) Great songs come out of him like from some kind of divine source. It´s amazing.
