Tom Waits has got to be one of the most unusual people on the planet. When you see him like this, awkwardness personified during the interview, you wonder what he's all about. But then he sits down at that piano and something magical occurs. He starts to sing in that gravelly voiced rasp, piano keys tinkling, and you get the feeling that he is penetrating into some fundamental realities, tapping into things we know and feel but can barely touch, and pulling them out for us to see.
