My "Jersey Girl" died, unexpectedly, on 30 Dec 2019, this was the song I played for her when we met. I played it at her service. I miss her so much.

I've been a Waits fan all my (and his) life and never feel uncomfortable to announce it to anyone interested. Some of his fans seem to recoil from admitting to it but let me assure you you're doing us all a service by introducing others to his wonderful music and compositions. So far I've preached his work to my children, grandchildren and now my first great grandchild. If I ever get a great great grandchild then she or he will also hear this old fool introducing them to the great great Tom Waits.

I was a foetus in my mother's womb when I first heard this album. The curse of lycanthropy had not yet befallen me in the late Autumn months of 1986 and were I to know the future that lay ahead I may not have continued to live. The dark alien overlords that control the planet had yet to make themselves known to me and I was about to finish my apprenticeship in Lung Puncturing. The future seemed bright and the world wide open: how wrong I was! Anyway, great song.

Tipo y por ejemplo: Ni ahí se entendiera nada del idioma o la lengua que hablan donde sea los migrantes. A mi siempre me hace pensar cuando yo era chica y hablababa a media lengua entre mayores. A mí me quedó grabado eso.Supongo debe haber sido traumático , la experiencia, para mi. Verte de pronto y para siempre entre extraños, ni ahí debe ser moco de pavo. Yo que sé. Pienso en las millones de gente migrando. Y la verdad. Ni ahí entiendo.
