The piano has been drinking, not me.

I must say one of the best videos I have ever found scrolling through YouTube was a Tom Waits appearance on a spoof talk show called Fernwood Tonight. The song is just brilliant as Tom always punches the piano keys so softly with his finger tips as the words of the song, so hilarious and cruel, flow out like a dive bar beat poet. Not only is the song great, even though it only lasts a little over a minute but the banter that is exchanged between Tom, Barth (Martin Mull) and Jerry (Fred Willard) is unforgettable. Tom sucking back on his cigarette while throwing back a few swigs of drink is just classic Tom Waits. He announces to his interviewers that he resides at Bedlam and squaler then comes the famous quote "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than and frontal labotomy". Gotta love it. Tom knows skid row and you can really see his personality in this video. From his gravely voice to his beautiful piano playing to his clever lyrics to his broke down wit its all here in this video for all to see so enjoy cause it really is the piano that's been drinking, not Tom.
