Whenever "Do It Different Week" occurs, there can be a 3oaK set that is three or more songs of Tom Waits singing covers.

Right up there with Daytona International Speedway. I know its a big track, but you pretty much start in the US, finish in the US, and stay in US the whole circle.

I dunno, all these versions get a little Christmas-carol-y / jazz-standard-y. I know it's a "romantic" TW song, but the covers all feel pretty defanged to me.

I nominate Annie Lennox for a cover of this, recorded in a room, not a studio, with simple backing and with very little audio sweetening involved.

As I've been taught over and over in Mary-land, apparently I need to hear a familiar song sung by 20 different people in a row before I actually cotton on to what the lyrics really say
