'Smoke' is more wonderful than quirky, IMHO. If you want quirky I recommend the sequel, 'Blue in the Face'. Madonna makes an appearance but, not even she can spoil it! If you don't like wonderful, you can watch the ending of the film (this song) here on YT. Just look out for the black and white photo of the blind, black lady - it's lovely.

“Innocent When You Dream” forma parte del álbum “Franks Wild Years”, publicado en 1987. Álbum extraño por lo ecléctico y feraz -y que da cuenta del temple del compositor. Tom Waits es diferente a todos. Como anota Diego Manrique «su música rompe normas: impresiona su primitivismo, apabullan sus desmadejados arreglos, desconciertan esas letras donde alterna religión y crueldad» . O como rubrica Barney Hoskyns, «frustra a cualquiera. Es una anti estrella que se niega a vivir de acuerdo con el guión del pecado y la redención que la cultura de los famosos impone». El mismo lo confiesa: «Mi vida es como la de un controlador aéreo: momentos aburridos salpicados por ráfagas de pánico. A veces estoy flotando en un campo de azucenas y poco después el viento me arranca la piel a tiras».
