Anyone who tries to call Tom Waits a Beefheart ripoff clearly lacks the musical intelligence to hear past the raspy voice... Completely different musical entities.. Beefheart's music was extremely technically, and texturally complex. Utilizing odd meters, metric ambiguity, and poly-rhythms. Tom Waits is more about character and timbre within his songs, most of them are based on relatively simple blues and country structure... Both are brilliant, can't you people just appreciate that?

@WordEdwin Amazing performance. He played a sympathetic Devil. The eternal adversary, a being that lives for the debate, the argument, the game. It doesn't matter whether he wins or loses, just as long as the game goes on. A character who lives to fulfill the role of antagonist and takes pride and a certain satisfaction in the duty. It is less about evil and more about professional pride.
Just listen. He's awesme. Can't compare him to anyone else.

Apparently, that's a children's "clapping song" that's old as America, called "Rubber Dolly". One of the versions of this song had this little rhyme too. For a pretty version recorded on the 60's, look for "Shirley Ellis The Clapping Song" on KZitem.

While it doesn't sound like Beefheart, if you listen to the stuff he did before and after he said he found out about Beefheart, you can tell that it had a pretty strong effect on his music. I think the voice isn't a good thing to point out because he was doing the rough voice thing long before he says he found out about Beefheart. So yeah, while the two don't really sound anything alike, the influence is still pretty strong. Waits took the spirit of Beefheart's work, but not the sound. :)

That film gets a little too lost in the scientific elements of the plot to really be considered a detective movie, but I know what you mean. It does have that feel. Who'd suspect that two strangers would click via the internet and draw parallels between the lovably eccentric Tom Waits and the dystopian, eugenic dreamscapes of little ol' Gattaca?

Absurd. Everyone borrows from those who've influenced them. If in this instance you feel he's "ripped off" Beefheart, all you need do is point out a prime example of where you see that and in turn I'll guarantee you, a case could be made for whomever it appears Beefheart in turn has "ripped off". Waits is many things, however Captain Beefheart is IMO not even chief among those whom I see him drawing from. The diversity of the material performed for this film and Tom's delivery of it feels more like a mixture of Howlin' Wolf, Astor Piazzolla, Louis Prima, Kurt Weill, and Irish Tenor John McCormack, with elements of Mexican Norteño bands and Vegas lounge lizards, yet not so much Don Van Vliet and if you're hearing that, I contend that it goes deeper in that these similarities are due more to the mutual musical influences of those who predated both Waits and Beefheart.
